Chapter 829 This is Young Master Gu

The others also burst out laughing.

These women are all wealthy heiresses from Hong Kong, with similar net worth and family backgrounds—not the richest, but not the poorest either.

They call each other sisters, but they're both secretly hoping to see the other make a fool of themselves.

"She's not some rich heiress, she's just a country bumpkin from the mainland!" Miss Li rolled her eyes dismissively as she recounted what happened at the jade exchange meeting.

“I saw them at the jade exchange meeting yesterday. They don’t know anything at all and just buy blindly. If they hadn’t been lucky enough to bet on three jades correctly, they would probably have packed up and gone back to the mainland by now.”

But he didn't mention that he had just come out of the meeting when he was hit by bird droppings, and shortly after that, he slipped on a banana peel and fell flat on his face. When he got home, he accidentally broke his father's treasured antique vase.

"Oh, I see!"

Hearing her say that, the others looked at her with disdain.

The banquet featured a wide variety of delicious food.

Helian Jiao saw it at a glance and immediately ran over.

Seeing this, Miss Li and her companions looked at each other with even more disdain: running around in a formal dress like this, they really are country bumpkins who have never seen the world!

Gu Tingyun followed silently behind, never caring about those insignificant glances.

“Tingyun, you’re new here and don’t know who these people are. Let me show you around.” He Junlin followed along at a leisurely pace.

Gu Tingyun hesitated for a moment, then looked at Guaibao beside her. Before she could speak, Helian Jiaoju waved her hand nonchalantly and said, "It's alright, you can go!"

Knowing that his little darling was impatient with socializing, Gu Tingyun didn't insist. He just said in a low voice, "Then I'll go over there first. You stay here and wait for me. Don't run around."

"Mmm." Helian Jiao had already taken the plate and started putting food into it.

She was the only one earnestly eating the delicious food on the ten-meter-long table.

The food at the banquet was basically just for show; the guests all had ulterior motives.

Men are busy building connections, while women are focused on maintaining an elegant image.

The other women looked at him with even more contempt when they saw this; he really was a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.

On the other side, He Junlin led Gu Tingyun into the crowd and introduced him: "This is Gu Tingyun, the nephew of Ms. Gu Qinghuan and Ms. Gu Qingwan."

Everyone looked surprised and raised their glasses: "So it's Young Master Gu. Welcome to Hong Kong."

Gu Tingyun's eldest and youngest aunts are successful business tycoons overseas.

In this international economic metropolis, she is far more well-known than Gu Jia.

The socialites and heiresses present, upon learning his identity, immediately adopted a different attitude, even their gazes towards Gu Tingyun became unusually ardent.

No wonder he looked so imposing; he's the nephew of these two!

If they could win over Gu Tingyun, wouldn't they be able to get on board the Gu family's big ship?

"Thank you." Gu Tingyun took a sip of champagne and seamlessly blended into the banquet.

Miss Li was shocked!

How is that possible??

She was just complaining that Gu Tingyun was a nouveau riche, and now she's been thoroughly humiliated!

The women next to her mocked her, saying, "If someone like Gu Tingyun is considered a nouveau riche, then our families are just running a small grocery store!"

After saying that, they all raised their wine glasses and surrounded Gu Tingyun.

If they could find an opportunity to talk, maybe Young Master Gu would take a liking to them?

Ms. Li stood there, her face filled with shame and embarrassment, and she was filled with regret.
