Chapter 88 is not what you think.
Gu Jingcheng was holding a champagne bottle, but before he could drink it, he saw Qin Simiao walking towards him with a man.
A woman with a slender figure was following behind him.
His face was obscured, and only a glimpse of blue could be seen.
He roughly guessed that this was the good brother Qin Simiao kept talking about, the one who was going to develop his career in Jiangcheng.
Gu Jingcheng paused, waiting for them to come forward.
He was curious about what kind of young man Qin Simiao kept talking about as his good brother.
I can tolerate Qin Simiao's nagging.
Qin Simiao watched Gu Jingcheng from afar, afraid he was about to leave, so she shouted at the top of her lungs from a distance.
"Uncle, wait for me."
The three of them stood in front of Gu Jingcheng.
Qin Simiao patted Shao Chengyu's shoulder forcefully.
"Uncle! This is my brother, Shao Chengyu!"
The general manager of the Shaw Group is also planning to make his mark in Wuhan!
He then stepped aside, making way for Lin Wei behind him.
"This is Miss Lin Wei, the head of the Lin Group."
I happened to be on a business trip in Ancheng, and since I'm an old classmate of Cheng Yu, we came together.
Lin Wei, who had a faint smile on her face, looked at the man's face clearly when she saw him.
Her smile froze on her face, and she subconsciously took a half-step back.
My fingers gripped the plate of small cakes tightly, my heart pounding.
Her cheeks burned; she felt like a wife caught in the act of adultery.
She didn't even dare to look men in the eye.
Lin Wei never expected that Qin Simiao's "uncle" would actually be Gu Jingcheng!
She was originally just accompanying Shao Chengyu to the banquet as a friend.
It's nothing, but why do I feel so guilty?
She was torn, wondering whether she should explain.
But then she caught a glimpse of the chilling coldness in Gu Jingcheng's eyes.
He swallowed nervously, unable to utter a word of explanation.
Shao Chengyu smiled and extended his hand.
"Mr. Gu, I have long admired your name. It is an honor to meet you in person today."
Gu Jingcheng stood there, motionless, his gaze fixed on Shao Chengyu's young and handsome face.
The fingers gripping the wine glass tightened suddenly, the knuckles turning white.
A sour, burning sensation burned in his throat.
Does Lin Wei like this?
Younger, more attractive men than him.
Great! She even said "I miss him" in the video last night.
She turned around and appeared in front of him with another young man, beaming with smiles!
Lin Wei, she's really something!
An intense, overwhelming jealousy surged through his chest.
Gu Jingcheng gave a forced smile, his gaze fixed on Shao Chengyu's face, his eyes sharp enough to pierce.
"Mr. Shao, it's a pleasure to meet you."
She reached out and shook the man's hand in return.
Then he looked at Lin Wei.
"Miss Lin, it's a pleasure to meet you. Your beauty is indeed well-deserved!"
Lin Wei felt uneasy under his gaze. She moved her lips and forced a smile.
"Mr. Gu, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Lin Wei felt as if Gu Jingcheng's words had frozen her blood.
Qin Simiao chimed in with a grin.
"Uncle! You're trending again!"
A young marriage! The hearts of all the socialites and ladies in Jiangcheng are broken!
I wonder what kind of fairy my aunt is, that she's taken you in.
"So what if you're married? Some people should be tied to your waistband with a rope."
Qin Simiao was speechless, wondering where Gu Jingcheng's anger came from.
Is it just because he joked that he was married?
My uncle wasn't always this stingy.
Sure enough, married men are different.
Lin Wei's breath hitched, and she lowered her head guiltily, not daring to look at him.
"Excuse me! I need to use the restroom!"
The slender figure hurriedly left towards the restroom.
Gu Jingcheng stared at Lin Wei's retreating figure with a gloomy expression.
This woman is incredibly guilty!
Lin Wei rushed into the bathroom and leaned against the door.
After pausing for a moment, she walked to the sink and turned on the tap.
He splashed cold water on his cheeks, trying to calm himself down.
Why should she feel guilty? She and Shao Chengyu have nothing going on.
However, given Gu Jingcheng's appearance, misunderstandings were inevitable.
I'll explain it to him again tonight.
Lin Wei's heartbeat calmed down a little. She took out a tissue and wiped the water off her face.
I walked out of the restroom.
The man was less than half a meter away from her, looking at her with a gloomy expression.
His hands were clenched into fists, as if he was trying his best to restrain himself.
Lin Wei's heart, which had just calmed down, started pounding wildly again.
She slowly approached Gu Jingcheng.
"Well, I can explain. Shao Chengyu and I are just..."
"ah"
Lin Wei exclaimed in surprise.
The man suddenly moved closer to her, one hand against the wall, the other around her waist.
She was confined to a small space.
Lin Wei's back slammed against the cold wall in the corridor outside the restroom.
His heavy breathing sprayed onto Lin Wei's cheeks.
His tall figure completely enveloped her in his shadow.
Lin Wei was held captive for a few seconds by the man's strong hormonal aura.
Then, instinctively, I tried to push him away, my hand resting on the front of his suit jacket.
But what it touched was firm muscle, burning hot.
Startled, she immediately withdrew her hand, her fingertips trembling.
"Gu Jingcheng, calm down."
The two were very close! Close enough that Lin Wei could see the crimson rage in his eyes.
"You run pretty fast, don't you?"
"What, Miss Lin, are you surprised to see me?"
Or perhaps I've disturbed your and your new friend's enjoyment?
"Gu Jingcheng, let go of me. This is a public place."
"It's not what you think. He's just my college classmate, and we just happened to run into each other."
She lowered her voice to explain.
The scarlet color under his eyes was frightening.
"Now you realize it's a public place? You were just with another man."
When you were laughing so happily, how could I not have thought you were married?
His warm breath brushed against her ear, sending shivers down her spine.
Lin Wei was stiff all over, her ears were bright red, and she was both angry and anxious.
"Gu Jingcheng, that's enough."
"That's not enough, Lin Wei. What do you take me for? You said you missed me last night."
She turns around and is seen with someone else all the time!
Gu Jingcheng grew angrier as he spoke, his hand clenched into a fist against the wall, the veins on the back of his hand bulging.
Lin Wei was startled by the surge of pain in his eyes.
For a moment, I forgot to refute; all that remained was a sense of grievance.
My nose tingled, and my eyes welled up with tears.
"It's not what you think..."
Her voice was choked with sobs, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Seeing Lin Wei's reddened eyes, Gu Jingcheng felt as if his heart had been pricked by a needle.
He resisted the urge to pull her into his arms, staring at her moist eyes.
My heart softened.
His voice softened; he couldn't stand seeing women cry.
Especially when she cried like that, she looked so pitiful.
In her memory, this was the first time he made her cry.
It was the time the Civil Affairs Bureau stood her up.
Gu Jingcheng was somewhat at a loss.
He reached out and wiped the tears from Lin Wei's cheeks.
I don't know where to put my hands and feet.
"You...you...I...okay, we'll talk about it when we get back to the hotel."
Lin Wei looked up at him with her red, swollen eyes.
"Gu Jingcheng, it's really not what you think."
Shao Chengyu was worried when he saw that Lin Wei hadn't returned for a long time.
The banquet hall has a complicated layout; Lin Wei may have gotten lost.
He put down his wine glass and headed towards the restroom.
As you walk deeper into the corridor, the lights become dim.
In the distance, he saw a blue figure being embraced by a man.
Shao Chengyu's heart skipped a beat.
A chill ran through his chest. Wasn't that Lin Wei?
Who has the audacity to bully his people here?
"Let her go!"
Shao Chengyu strode forward and pulled the man who was holding Lin Wei away.
The disturbed man and woman frowned at him, as if they were looking at a lunatic.
