Chapter 113 Elevating the Guo Family Father and Daughter to the Clouds
Who are you going to control?
Liang Yizhi looked up at him, as if he really didn't know who he was asking.
These two are probably not meant to be.
Xue Qin twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "Sorry, I mistook you for someone else."
...
Guo Guqing's private dinner was held in the hotel's glass dome hall.
Guo Ying wore a white low-cut dress and walked towards Guo Guqing, arm in arm with Gu Yanchen.
"Some of the people here today are my father's students, and others are leaders in the field of new energy research and development. When they heard that my father was going to host this private dinner, everyone racked their brains to get a ticket."
As Guo Ying spoke, she proudly raised her head.
"After all, only those who can catch my father's eye are truly recognized as having ability."
Gu Yanchen chuckled but didn't reply.
The smile on Guo Ying's lips gradually faded.
This banquet was originally held for him, does he still think that his sincerity is not enough?
"Dad, we're here."
Guo Ying called out to her father's retreating figure.
Guo Guqing was chatting with a few people when she immediately turned around and looked at them, smiling, "Yan Chen, come here quickly, let me introduce you."
He pointed to a young man standing at the very front and said, "Dong Haoyan is my best student. For him, the heavy truck batteries released by Qingsui are nothing."
Gu Yanchen turned his gaze to the other party, but Dong Haoyan only nodded slightly as a greeting.
Guo Ying leaned close to Gu Yanchen's ear and whispered, "He has a proud personality and only listens to my father. No one can poach him."
Gu Yanchen understood the meaning behind her words.
He curled his lips into a cryptic smile.
At this moment, Wen Lingxue walked over.
"Brother, she's here to change your dressing."
As she spoke, she gestured with her chin toward the sidelines.
Ji Ying, dressed simply and carrying a medicine box, stood at the side of the room, completely out of place amidst the glittering clothes and jewelry that filled the room.
Guo Ying gave a cold laugh and quickly said to her father and the others, "I have something to discuss with Yan Chen, please excuse me."
Upon arriving at the adjacent private room, she insisted on accompanying Gu Yanchen to change his dressing.
Gu Yanchen did not refuse.
She then took advantage of the situation and deliberately pulled her low-cut dress down a bit while helping him take off his clothes.
The squeezing device, often used by men, almost jumped out.
Gu Yanchen didn't look at her chest, but smiled and pinched her cheek. "Are you here to help me change my bandages, or do you have other intentions?"
"you guess?"
Her face was pressed against his arm, her eyes sparkling with a seductive smile, as she glanced at Ji Ying, who was packing her medicine box.
So what if the legal wife is present? She insists on conquering every inch of territory in front of the legal wife; that's what makes it exciting.
However, Ji Ying didn't even lift her eyelids. "What time should I change the dressing tomorrow?"
Gu Yanchen turned his gaze to her, "It might be later than today."
Ji Ying closed the medicine box. "Let's talk about it later."
Gu Yanchen raised an eyebrow. "What kind of behavior is this?"
Ji Ying replied emotionlessly, "I'm disgusted. I need to take a few days off."
Guo Ying exclaimed dramatically, "My God, this is perfectly normal fun between men and women, and you're actually disgusted by it? Are you frigid or something?"
Ji Ying raised an eyebrow and retorted sarcastically, "What normal couples call romance, what you two are doing is vulgar, or even worse, animalistic in heat."
Guo Ying was furious. "Only a woman without ability can be a mistress."
Ji Ying shrugged. "No one's going to take that 'halo' from you as a mistress, so just keep wearing it."
After saying that, she walked out.
Guo Ying was furious and wanted to chase after her to hit her, but Gu Yanchen pulled her back.
"Why get angry with a piece of wood?" he chuckled.
Guo Ying's anger dissipated instantly. "You're so kind. I'll bring Dong Haoran to your company another day."
Gu Yanchen smiled enigmatically.
The door opened, and Guo Ying leaned on Gu Yanchen's arm, giving Wen Lingxue, who was waiting at the door of the private room, a wink. Wen Lingxue nodded slightly.
She led Ji Ying through the banquet hall, where several men and women dressed in fine suits and haute couture blocked Ji Ying's path.
"Hey, isn't this our class's genius girl?" one of the women in the red dress exaggeratedly covered her mouth, "The promising student that the professors praised to the skies back then, how did she end up as a nurse?"
The man next to him joked, "Didn't we hear that after graduation you went to marry into a wealthy family and become a bed warmer for rich men? No wonder you can't be found in the alumni directory. Looks like you used all your talent in bed to please men."
Several people burst into laughter.
Ji Ying remembered all those faces.
When Ji Ying went to university, her family was not well-off. She worked part-time while studying and was very diligent. With her talent, she quickly gained the favor of several professors and participated in some research and development projects.
So these jealous guys would often "accidentally" spill her food when they ran into her in the cafeteria.
Because they knew that Ji Ying was struggling financially and couldn't bear to buy anything more.
They loved watching her squat down and pick up the food that wasn't dirty to eat.
At that time, Ji Ying was 1.67 meters tall but weighed less than 90 kilograms, thanks to these people.
Ji Ying's eyes darkened slightly, but quickly returned to calm.
Guo Ying put a lot of effort into today's scene, as evidenced by the fact that she was able to find these few pieces of trash.
At this moment, the woman in the red dress strolled up to Ji Ying, picked up her fabric with two fingers, and clicked her tongue exaggeratedly, "Tsk tsk, you actually wear cheap clothes to such a high-class place. You were so glamorous back then, how come we've all entered high society now, but you've been played with by your wealthy husband and kicked out?"
Amidst another burst of laughter, someone suddenly raised their voice, "Look, the man next to Guo Ying is so handsome."
The others immediately understood and pushed Ji Ying, bringing her to Guo Ying and Gu Yanchen.
"Xiaoying, is this your boyfriend?" the woman in the red dress asked loudly.
Guo Ying stole a glance at Gu Yanchen. Seeing that he did not deny it, she boldly neither nodded nor shook her head, which was taken as an admission.
A man next to them immediately chimed in, "They really are a perfect match, a match made in heaven!"
The commotion attracted a crowd, and even Guo Guqing brought his old friends to join in.
Ji Ying watched coldly, unaware of who was ultimately humiliated in this humiliating spectacle.
Before Guo Ying could continue with her script, the hotel manager, accompanied by two waiters, emerged from the crowd, walked straight up to Gu Yanchen, and bowed their heads to him in unison.
"Upon learning that Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu were honored to grace our hotel with their presence, we have specially prepared two bottles of red wine for them as a token of our welcome."
Gu Yanchen's brow twitched suddenly; a premonition that the situation was spiraling out of control washed over him, and he was about to speak up to stop it...
"My God!" The woman in the red dress suddenly exclaimed in a high-pitched voice, "Guo Ying, you're married? You married President Gu, the President Gu from Chenxi Group?"
Guo Ying was stunned for a moment.
Caught off guard by the unexpected turn of events, she hadn't thought of a response when the manager handed her a bottle of red wine.
It wasn't given to Gu Yanchen, but to her.
"Mr. Gu, this wine has a mellow taste and is suitable for men."
Although not explicitly stated, this action has confirmed everyone's suspicions.
"So it turns out that Guo Ying is the real socialite."
The woman in the red dress fawned over Guo Ying, then turned and glared disdainfully at Ji Ying. "See? Only a talented and beautiful young lady like Miss Guo is worthy of marrying President Gu. You, at best, are just a rag thrown out by a wealthy family."
Amidst the laughter of the room, Guo Ying, holding a glass of red wine, blushed and felt her vanity was satisfied like never before.
Just then, Guo Guqing's old friend praised her loudly, "Old Guo's daughter is truly remarkable! When Xiaoying was studying at Aalborg, she remained unmoved by the many young men who pursued her, focusing instead on academics and publishing core papers. That's what makes her worthy of President Gu! The Guo family's values are truly admirable."
Guo Guqing nodded with a smile, and the father and daughter enjoyed the most glorious moment of their lives amidst the envious gazes of the crowd.
The manager felt the time was right and looked at Ji Ying.
Having received confirmation, he smiled and picked up another bottle of red wine...
