Chapter 10 Women Shouldn't Be Spoiled
Tang Xingzhou stiffly suppressed his anger and asked awkwardly, "Why did you come out?"
"I got a phone call." Gu Suixing walked to the sink. "That young lady hasn't forgiven you yet?"
“You’ve already called her ‘Miss,’ and with Miss’s temper…” Tang Xingzhou didn’t finish his sentence, his face full of dejection.
Gu Suixing said slowly, "Women shouldn't be spoiled."
Tang Xingzhou picked up his phone, which had fallen to the corner of the wall, and muttered dejectedly, "It won't be my turn to do this anymore."
She had said at the beginning of their engagement that she couldn't tolerate any imperfections.
She won't forgive him; he's just unwilling to give up.
Tang Xingzhou took a deep breath. "I'll head back now. I'll contact you later."
Everyone in the circle knows that the Huo siblings and Miss Lu have a good relationship. Huo Huai'an knew that he wouldn't dare to offend Gu Suixing, so he invited him out under the pretense of welcoming Gu Suixing. He said it was to welcome Gu Suixing, but in reality, it was to vent Lu Fengqing's anger.
He was forced to drink two bottles of alcohol in less than ten minutes in the private room. The sarcastic remarks he received were like slaps to the face, and he couldn't even refute them.
Now that he's arrived, eaten, and drunk, it's time for him to go back.
After Tang Xingzhou left, a "click" came from the last cubicle, and a figure came out from inside.
Gu Suixing asked, somewhat amused, "When did you arrive?"
“It’s been a while,” Huo Huai’an shrugged. “He’s afraid we’ll think we’re deliberately blocking him in the bathroom, so he hasn’t come out.”
The friendship between the Huo and Tang families still exists, so he has to be somewhat considerate.
Speaking of which, he quite admired this ancestor; he had just returned and already ruined someone else's engagement.
What's most amazing is that the two people involved in the scheme seemed completely oblivious to the fact that they were being manipulated. It's unbelievable.
Gu Suixing suddenly said, "Reply to Jolene for me, I want all those items."
Huo Huai'an: "Isn't it said that women shouldn't be spoiled?"
Gu Suixing raised an eyebrow. "When did I say I was going to send a woman?"
Huo Huai'an: "Then why would you spend millions to buy a few cheap bags, just to carry them to the market?"
Gu Suixing chuckled.
Huo Huai'an had a "I knew it" look on his face.
The two returned to the private room and were immediately invited to play pool.
Those invited by Huo Huai'an to welcome Gu Suixing were all young masters of similar age from various families. Although they were all young masters, there were still differences in their status. Gu Suixing's status and position in the entire private room were undoubtedly the highest, and he was the one who was surrounded by people flattering him.
Several young and pretty waitresses carried in the drinks, and for some reason, one of them suddenly fell to the ground.
The wine basket tipped over, spilling wine onto the marble floor with a loud clatter, leaving behind a mess.
The freckled waitress suddenly pointed to the girl who had fallen by the sofa and shouted shrilly, "It was her! She's the one who smashed the wine!"
The girl seemed to have fallen and injured herself. She thrashed around on the ground for a while before finally managing to stand up by supporting herself on the edge of the sofa.
When she raised her head, she revealed a pure and beautiful face, which stunned the group of young masters.
Gu Suixing calmly withdrew his gaze.
Huo Huai'an wouldn't let him off the hook, "Is it pretty?"
Gu Suixing dusted the tip of his golf club with powder and casually remarked, "Nice."
Upon hearing this, the man in the vest standing nearby started to get creative.
Someone whistled, "She's quite pretty. New here?"
"What do you mean 'quite pretty'? She's already quite good-looking. Do you think everyone is Miss Lu?"
When the eldest daughter of the Lu family was mentioned, everyone exchanged knowing glances.
Within the circle, that young lady is a recognized beauty.
Compared to a stunning beauty like Miss Lu, all other women are merely ordinary mortals.
Everyone had heard about what happened this morning; it was only because Tang Xingzhou left that they dared not mention it.
Huo Huai'an subconsciously looked at Gu Suixing.
Gu Suixing's face remained expressionless, as if he hadn't heard their conversation.
The man in the vest suddenly said, "Don't just stand there, come and have a few drinks with our Fourth Young Master. If he's in a good mood, he might not hold it against you for planning to drink these things."
When the others saw that he and Gu Suixing were standing close together, they assumed it was Gu Suixing's idea and immediately joined in the commotion.
"It's your good fortune that the Fourth Young Master has taken a liking to you, so hurry up and go over there."
Someone shoved two glasses of wine into the girl's hand, saying, "Either go over and have a few drinks with Fourth Young Master, or you'll have to pay for the wine you broke. You decide."
The girl looked bewildered, glancing at the wine glass in her hand and then at the young man standing next to the pool table.
He was more handsome than anyone she had ever seen before. He was dressed neatly in a white shirt and black trousers, with an incomparably handsome face and beautiful, affectionate eyes. The top button of his shirt was fastened to the very top, yet he had a dashing and unrestrained demeanor, making him look both alluring and seductive.
Seeing that the girl wasn't moving, the freckled man urged her impatiently, "Hurry up and go over there, I don't have any money to pay for this!"
The girl hesitated for a moment, then took a step forward, carrying her wine glass, and limped towards the pool table. "Sir, would you like a drink?"
The manager, who rushed over upon hearing the news, was secretly alarmed by what he saw and did not immediately step forward.
Gu Suixing raised his eyes, a slightly roguish smile playing on his lips. "I can't hold my liquor. If I get drunk, will you take me home?"
Huo Huai'an couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The others all exchanged knowing smiles.
"I..." The girl looked at the ambiguous gazes, biting her lower lip, looking like she was about to cry.
Gu Suixing didn't look at her again, and took the cue stick to the other side of the pool table.
They showed absolutely no mercy or pity, they were incredibly cold-hearted.
The others looked at each other in bewilderment.
He's unmoved by such a beautiful woman; it seems that what Young Master Huo said about the Crown Prince being uninterested in women is true.
The manager glared at the girl, then called for someone to come in and clean while explaining with a forced smile, "She's not a full-time employee; she works part-time at the university next door. She usually only does cleaning, but somehow she managed to get here to deliver drinks tonight. I'll definitely give her a good talking to later..."
Huo Huai'an walked to Gu Suixing's side, "So heartless?"
Gu Suixing: "Otherwise?"
Huo Huai'an, who has a younger sister who's not focused on her studies but is passionate about literary creation, immediately launched into a story: "You couldn't get your unrequited first love, so you went out drinking to drown your sorrows. A pure and beautiful college girl accidentally broke your bottle, but you generously didn't hold it against her. The girl was grateful but refused to reciprocate. You found her amusing, and to prove to your first love that you weren't unwanted, you decided to blackmail her with a debt, bringing her to your side to tease and bully her. Unexpectedly, you fell in love with her over time, and after a grueling pursuit, you finally won her heart, and within three years, you had two children..."
Gu Suixing scoffed, "Who can't forget what they can't have?"
Before Huo Huai'an could speak, this ancestor said again: "Not only do I not care about her breaking my wine worth hundreds of thousands, but I also find her very interesting. You wouldn't have such a thought unless you had a stroke for ten years."
Huo Huai'an: "..."
It sounds like he's a bit mentally unstable.
After playing two rounds, the two walked together to the sofa in the corner and sat down.
Huo Huai'an: "What do you think about the Lu family's situation?"
Doing business and investing is just like that; the situation is constantly changing. Today you might be making a fortune, but tomorrow you might lose everything.
Once that document is implemented, the Lu family will be burdened with at least hundreds of billions of yuan in debt.
The Tang family has been embroiled in fierce internal struggles over the years, and even if Tang Xingzhou hadn't cheated on his wife, the Tang family couldn't offer much help.
But if this ancestor is willing to take action, the Lu family may not be without hope of "coming back to life".
Gu Suixing said in a calm tone: "Go to the temple and pray to the Bodhisattva more often. Maybe a miracle will happen."
"..." Huo Huai'an was speechless for a moment.
You even pray to the Bodhisattva? Why be so cruel?
"Holy crap—"
A gasp suddenly rang out from the private room.
The large screen that was playing the music video was suddenly replaced by an offensive photo.
Everyone recognizes the woman in the photo.
Lu Yuhan, the second young lady of the Lu family.
