Unable to dissuade Gu Qingqing, Gu Mu had no choice but to find a silver-white shawl and drape it over her shoulders, barely covering a bit of her exposed skin.
However, the shawl also restricted her behavior, and it's estimated that she wouldn't be able to enjoy the food properly at the party and be a true foodie.
He also did her light makeup, because it's necessary to wear makeup to attend important parties in order to show respect to others and to create a sense of ceremony.
Spray on a captivating perfume, wear earrings and a necklace, and step into ten-centimeter red high heels—a perfectly made-up outfit that's guaranteed to mesmerize a whole host of men at the party.
Gu Mu led Gu Qingqing out the door. Gu Jin and Gu En, who had been waiting in the living room, were stunned when they saw her come down the stairs.
At this moment, she is so stunningly beautiful that any man would probably fall at her feet.
"Big brother, third brother..." she called out to them sweetly, not understanding what kind of party made them take it so seriously.
She only found out when she arrived at the scene.
It turned out to be the Gu family's 60th anniversary celebration gala.
No wonder they value it so much.
She's been so busy lately that she's forgotten the plot of the book.
One of the stories is about this: at the celebration gala, the three Gu brothers appeared together. This was the first time the three brothers had faced the public and the media together since they came of age. In the past, due to Gu Mu and Gu En's national status, they could not show their faces at all the galas and admit that they were members of the Gu family. They were afraid that the shareholders of the Gu Group would want to use their names to advertise for the group and seek profits.
But this time, Gu Mu and Gu En were no longer afraid, because their own strength meant they were no longer afraid of those who only cared about money.
In the book, it was also because of this party that they acknowledged An Haonan as the original owner's boyfriend and the son-in-law of the Gu family. Because of his success, his entire family benefited, and after An Susu signed with the entertainment company under the Gu Group, she quickly debuted and became famous throughout China.
But none of this will happen tonight, because Gu Qingqing transmigrated into the book and changed the original owner's fate.
The celebration party was a dazzling display of lights and colors.
As the hosts, Gu Qingqing and Gu Jin naturally had to arrive early to welcome their distinguished guests. Three minutes later, the guests arrived one after another.
They greeted the guests at the door, who presented gifts and offered their congratulations; laughter and joy filled the air.
Gu Qingqing got tired after standing for a short while because she wasn't used to wearing high heels, so she and Gu En entered the main hall of the venue first.
The venue for the cocktail party is also a chain of five-star hotels under the Gu Group.
Not long after Gu Qingqing went in, Zhai Shaolin arrived with Zhai Wan'er and several others, including An Susu, who had come with Duan Jinxun.
The four major families of Kyoto were the Zhai family, the Gu family, the Duan family, and the Dong family.
Because the Gu family later surpassed the Zhai family with their superior abilities, the two families maintained a facade of harmony but secretly did not interact much.
Not seeing Gu Qingqing, a dark glint flashed in An Susu's eyes. "Brother Gu, where's Qingqing? Why isn't she here?"
She deliberately addressed Gu Jin as "elder brother" in a friendly manner in front of Duan Jinxun and the others, using this relationship to gain face in front of the Zhai family.
Gu Jin, who was talking to Zhai Shaolin, heard this and his expression turned cold, but he didn't rush to answer her. Instead, he turned around and stared straight at her.
On the contrary, Gu Mu's eyes turned cold upon hearing this, and his face instantly soured. "My sister's feet got uncomfortable from standing for too long, so she went home to rest. What? Do you have something important to discuss with her?"
The implication is, "An Susu, who do you think you are? How dare you cause trouble for her?"
Don't think he didn't understand what An Susu said. He just wanted to ruin his sister's reputation in front of others.
After all, tonight's event is a very important party, and as the only woman in the Gu family, the eldest daughter naturally has to come out to greet the guests.
This is true respect for VIPs.
Understanding Gu Mu's unspoken meaning, An Susu looked embarrassed. "I, Second Brother Gu, I haven't seen Qingqing for a few days, I just missed her, please don't misunderstand."
Seeing An Susu smiling obsequiously at Gu Mu, looking so humble, Duan Jinxun couldn't stand it and glared at Gu Mu.
"Susu is Gu Qingqing's best friend. Can't I even say a few words of concern to her? Gu Mu, do you have to be so sarcastic and mean to Susu? What word did Susu say that offended you? You always target her like this. This kind of petty behavior is really disgusting."
Su Su is so wonderful, but Gu Mu is blind to her good intentions. Not only does he not like her, but he also bullies her every time.
"Duan Jinxun!" His words infuriated Gu Mu to the point of utter rage.
"What did I do to her? That's ridiculous. Wasn't it An Susu who slandered my sister with her foul mouth? You're blind and heartless. You only see her pretense on the surface. In fact, she's always been sweet-talking but ruthless. She's been deceiving my sister for three years."
He was so angry he was about to die.
Upon hearing the slanderous words against An Susu, Duan Jinxun became so angry that his face turned red and he was breathless.
"You're talking nonsense! Gu Mu, isn't it despicable of you to slander Su Su's reputation like this? I can help her hire a lawyer to sue her and teach you a lesson."
"I'm sorry, Second Brother Gu, please don't argue because of me. Jinxun, please don't be like this. It's my fault, it's all my fault." An Susu frowned slightly, her tone humble and pitiful, as if she were being bullied by everyone.
"I'm sorry, it was my fault. Second Brother Gu, please don't be angry. I apologize to you."
Seeing An Susu like this, Duan Jinxun became even angrier. "Susu, this isn't your fault, why are you apologizing? No! I won't allow you to do this."
Seeing that Duan Jinxun had been tricked by An Susu again and had even angered Gu Mu, Dong Shu's face turned icy. "Duan Jinxun, if you don't want to attend the Gu family's banquet, then get out of here."
She and Duan Jinxun were childhood sweethearts, so she was never polite to him.
roll?
How can this be?
An Susu grew anxious and grabbed Duan Jinxun's arm. "Jinxun, let's go inside quickly! My feet are hurting a bit."
"Huh?" Duan Jinxun hadn't even reacted before she pulled him away. He still wanted to argue with Dong Shu.
Why should she choose what to eat based on what's on the plate?
What's wrong with Susu? Why should they bully her like this?
All men are created equal.
No one should be allowed to discriminate against or bully ordinary people just because they have a higher social status or are richer.
Su Su was born into an unlucky family, but through her hard work over the years, she not only earned a degree from a prestigious university, but is now preparing to enter the entertainment industry.
But if Gu Qingqing didn't have the status of the eldest daughter of the Gu family, could she compare to Su Su?
Dong Shu's mood improved slightly when she saw that An Susu was at least sensible. "Gu Mu, I'm sorry about earlier. As for An Susu? Jin Xun insisted on bringing her here, and I couldn't stop him."
After all, each invited guest is allowed to bring one female or male companion.
Seeing that Dong Shu was reasonably sensible, Gu Mu's expression softened considerably, and his voice became gentler: "If it weren't for your sake, I would have kicked them out long ago. It's always her who speaks rudely. If she does it again next time, I won't let her off easily."
Dong Shu smiled apologetically and agreed, thus putting the matter behind her.
