Chapter 74 There is the opposite sex but no humanity

"What female college student? That's Mrs. Shen. Didn't you see the ring on her hand?"

Some people were sharp-eyed enough to notice the wedding rings on their hands.

Suddenly, there were more looks of amazement.

Is this Mrs. Shen?

She is so young and beautiful.

This Mr. Shen is really well hidden.

"Yo." Ji Mingyu walked towards the two of them first, holding a wine glass. He stared at Gu Nanyue up and down with his bright eyes without any hesitation.

It’s not that I haven’t seen her before, but why does she seem to be prettier every time I see her?

"Ji Mingyu, you have never seen a beautiful woman. If you look at Mrs. Shen like this, aren't you afraid that Mr. Shen will destroy your place?" Chu Yan walked over, glanced at Shen Boyan's gloomy face, and bumped Ji Mingyu hard with his elbow.

"Not really. We're old acquaintances. It won't hurt to take a look at each other." Ji Mingyu said, and then asked Gu Nanyue with a smile, "Isn't that right, Xiao Yanyue?"

Who knew that just as he finished speaking, Shen Boyan took Gu Nanyan's hand and left, and his black leather shoes stepped directly over Ji Mingyu's instep. Ji Mingyu couldn't laugh anymore, and held Chu Yan's shoulder with one hand, grimacing in pain.

"If you don't listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences." Chu Yan looked at him with a lazy tone, as if he was watching a show.

"When did Mr. Shen become so stingy? He really has no humanity when it comes to the opposite sex."

After the pain subsided, Ji Mingyu supported Chu Yan, bent down and patted the back of his shoes, and complained at the same time.

Chu Yan shook his head helplessly.

It was obvious that his eyes widened as soon as he saw the beautiful woman.

I dare to look at any beauty.

Shen Boyan took Gu Nanyan to a sofa and sat down. As soon as they sat down, a waiter brought drinks over.

The couple each held a glass of red wine. Gu Nanyue smiled and clinked glasses with the man, then took a sip.

The edge of her lips was accidentally stained with a little red, and the man's white fingers immediately fell on it and gently stroked it.

Gu Nanyan's smile froze. She looked around, her face slightly reddened, and she leaned closer to the man and said in a low voice, "A lot of people are looking at us."

The implication is that they need to pay attention.

"No problem."

Shen Boyan raised his head and took another sip of wine. His brows were clear and sharp. He was wearing a well-tailored dark suit and a crisp tie, which made him look well-dressed, dignified and unrestrained.

Su Xuejing stared at the man in the crowd for a while, then walked over.

"Miss Gu, nice to see you again." She greeted Gu Nanyan first, then sat down next to Shen Boyan, raised her glass with a smile, "Have a drink?"

Shen Boyan glanced at her, raised his glass, and took a sip politely.

The three of them sat together, and not far away, someone began to whisper.

"Boss Shen and Boss Su are old classmates. I heard that they were recognized as the golden couple in school."

"I've heard that too. Ms. Su was young at that time and was said to be the school belle."

"It's a pity that time is not forgiving... Mr. Su is now sitting with Mrs. Shen, both wearing white, but the difference is obvious at a glance."

"Boss Shen has a good eye. Mrs. Shen doesn't seem to be wearing any makeup, but her skin is so delicate and fair. She is truly naturally beautiful, and ordinary people can't compare to her."

When several wealthy wives got together, they couldn't help but chat about gossip. Their voices were not loud, but Su Xuejing could hear it clearly.

Hearing them praising Gu Nanyue's delicate and fair skin, she subconsciously raised her hand and touched her heavily made-up face.

She and Shen Boyan are from the same class and are about the same age, but girls always age faster than men. Not only is her skin not better than before, but the lines on her face are also much deeper.

Looking down at herself and Gu Nanyue who were wearing the same colored clothes, Su Xuejing could no longer sit still and stood up, "I'll go say hello to Mingyu."

Su Xuejing walked away with an unhappy look on her face, while Gu Nanyan sat there obediently and said to Chen Boyan sensibly, "Boyan, go to the social event. You don't have to accompany me all the time."

A cocktail party like this is a social occasion.

Bo Yan sat with her, being so close to her that others were too embarrassed to come up and say hello.

Shen Boyan did see a few partners. He took the wine glass and turned to Gu Nanyan and told her, "Don't drink too much. If you feel stuffy, you can go to the balcony to get some fresh air."

"I know."

Gu Nanyue gave him a reassuring look.

She is not a child anymore, and she needs him to accompany her all the time when attending a cocktail party.

Only then did Shen Boyan get up to attend the social event.

Gu Nanyue watched him blend into the crowd skillfully, then she took some desserts and ate them slowly.

It seems that most people have arrived.

Gu Nanyue looked around but didn't see Huo Beiting.

The Huo family and the Ji family have had a long-term partnership. Did Huo Beiting not come, or did Ji Mingyu not invite him?

After all, she was not familiar with Huo Beiting, so she didn't care whether he came or not.

After eating a piece of cake, Gu Nanyue felt a little full.

Thinking that the night view of this hotel was quite beautiful, she picked up her wine glass and went to the balcony.

The cocktail party was held on the third floor, and the balcony overlooked the night view of the hotel, which was truly magnificent.

Gu Nanyue was bathing in the night breeze and drinking red wine, feeling extremely comfortable.

After a while, the sound of high heels was heard behind me.

The sharp heels made a piercing sound on the tile floor.

Gu Nanyan didn't look back, but the person walked straight to her side, "Miss Gu seems a little bored."

"Bored? No, I'm looking at the night view." Gu Nanyue turned around and gave Su Xuejing a pure smile.

"I admit that Miss Gu is younger and prettier than me. But..." Su Xuejing took two steps forward and stood side by side with Gu Nanyue. She also looked at the night view downstairs, but with a disdainful smile on her face, "Others call me President Su, and call you Mrs. Shen. Maybe many people don't even know your last name."

Gu Nanyue certainly knew what Su Xuejing wanted to express.

She maintained that pure smile, "Maybe it's because Miss Su is not married yet. I don't think there's anything wrong with Mrs. Shen. After all, not everyone can be Mrs. Shen, right?"

In a nutshell, it not only made Su Xuejing unmarried at an advanced age, but also made her unable to become Mrs. Shen even if she wanted to.

Su Xuejing couldn't help but look at Gu Nanyue sharply, "Youth and beauty are not worth keeping. What a woman really keeps is her own value. Men in this world are good at weighing the pros and cons. A person who can't help him in any way will be abandoned sooner or later."

"Value? Miss Su, are you labeling yourself? Although Miss Su is almost 30 and still unmarried, I don't think Miss Su needs to give up on herself. You should believe that you will meet your true love. He is after you as a person, not your money."

Gu Nanyue's counterattack directly angered the usually eloquent Su Xuejing so much that her face turned blue and she was speechless.

"Oh."

In the silent night, a sneer suddenly rang out.

Gu Nanyue and Su Xuejing didn't even notice that there were other people on the balcony. They turned their heads at the same time to look at the black sofa on the balcony.

There was no light there, and the two looked carefully before they could see clearly that there was a cold and detached figure sitting there.

"Huo Beiting?" Gu Nanyue frowned slightly.

What is he laughing at.
