Chapter 138 Climbing into bed successfully

Gu Mian frowned, "What does our matter have to do with him? Why did you drag him into this?"

"Don't you know why I dragged him into this?"

"You are totally unreasonable!" Gu Mian was so angry that he almost died. "Get out of here! I don't want to see you again!"

Li Tingshen's eyes were filled with anger. "Finally you spoke your mind? When you saw me in Su Mei today, you wanted to just turn around and leave, right?"

"Yes!" Gu Mian sat up, picked up the pillow and threw it at him, "Get out!"

Li Tingshen stood there without moving, his face so gloomy that it looked like water could drip out of it.

“Knock, knock, knock.”

There was a sudden knock on the door, and Mother Yang's trembling voice came out from outside, "Madam, the old lady called you."

Gu Mian closed his eyes and tried to calm himself down, but his chest was still heaving with anger. "I know."

Li Tingshen turned around and walked away.

Mother Yang came in and asked, "Madam, are you okay?"

"Nothing, why did grandma call you?"

"I made it up. The old lady didn't call." Mother Yang said worriedly, "I heard you and your husband arguing, so I said that. Madam, calm down and go out for dinner first."

"I'm not hungry." Gu Mian lay down again, "You go out first, I want to be alone for a while."

Mother Yang sighed and could only close the door and leave.

......

This weekend, I was in a particularly bad mood for sleeping.

On Sunday noon, just after Gu Mian had lunch, Su Mei arrived.

"Gu Mian, you should change your clothes and put on makeup quickly. I heard that there will be afternoon tea at 2 o'clock. The chef invited is an internationally famous chef. You can't have it normally."

Gu Mian then remembered that he had to go to the skyscraper to attend a dinner today.

Gu Mian picked out a long dress that was more of an evening dress style and put on some decent makeup.

"Tsk tsk tsk." Su Mei was amazed to see her, "Gu Mian, your appearance will surely stun the whole crowd, right?"

Gu Mian was a little worried, "Am I being too high-profile?"

"Your clothes and makeup are low-key enough, but your face is high-profile. But this is your mother's face, you can't deliberately make it ugly, right?" Su Mei was curious, "Your parents must be very good-looking, right?"

“I’ve only seen pictures of them.”

In fact, the parents in the photo have ordinary looks, but her looks are exceptionally good, which can be said to be a win in the genetic lottery.

"Fortunately, I am so much older than you. If I were the same age as you, I would never dare to stand next to you."

Gu Mian's face is so punchable that anyone standing next to her will be turned into ashes in seconds.

"Sister Su Mei, please stop making fun of me."

"Okay, it's about time, let's go."

......

The dinner was held on the 30th floor of the skyscraper.

Gu Mian originally thought that it was still early and there shouldn't be many people here, but he didn't expect that quite a few people had already arrived at the scene.

"It's so beautiful." Su Mei stood in front of the French window. "I heard that the higher you go up here, the more luxurious it becomes. It's like this here, what must the top floor look like?"

Gu Mian recalled that she was being tormented by Li Ting that day and had no time to take a closer look at what the top floor looked like.

What a pity.

After all, the opportunity to visit the rooftop is rare.

"Gu Mian, you take up the seat here, I'll go get some food."

"good."

As soon as Su Mei left, Yin Luoxue came.

Yin Luoxue wore a black backless evening dress and even put powder on her body, making her skin look white and tender.

Her face was made up with extremely delicate makeup and even her hair was carefully groomed, making her look sexy and beautiful.

Yin Luoxue sat directly in front of Gu Mian, "Even you can come in, it really lowers the level of this banquet..."

Gu Mian smiled and said, "It seems that no one here knows that you were stopped outside the door as a lady that day. Do you need me to help you promote it?"

"You dare!" Yin Luoxue warned in a low voice, "If you dare to spread this matter, I will never forgive you!"

"If you don't want me to spread the news, please stay away." Gu Mian suddenly realized, "That's not right. You were stopped outside that day, so how could you come in today?"

"You look down on people..." Yin Luoxue said with disdain, "That security guard was so ignorant that he dared to treat me like that."

"I came here with Hongxuan today. Who dares to stop me? Do you want to die?"

Gu Mian nodded and said in agreement, "It looks like you climbed into bed very successfully."

Yin Luoxue took a sip of champagne and said, "Stop bullying me. When Hongxuan meets with the big boss of the consortium tonight and the two sides reach a cooperation agreement... Gu Mian, I'm afraid you will have to pack up and leave the capital overnight."

She dressed up carefully today, even more beautiful than her wedding day, just to attract the attention of the big boss.

Maybe she can rise to the top in one fell swoop and become the boss lady of a big conglomerate.

By then, everyone in the imperial capital will submit to her!

Gu Mian ignored her and got up and left. "Then I wish your dream will come true."

......

Most of the guests who came in the afternoon were female guests, and in the evening, when the dinner was about to start, male guests arrived one after another.

Gu Mian came back from the bathroom and saw Yan Mu being surrounded and toasted.

Yan Mu also saw her at a glance.

Because when Gu Mian came in, many men's eyes were attracted to her.

Yan Mu quickly pulled away and came to Gu Mian, "Miss Gu, we meet again."

"Thank you for the invitation letter from Attorney Yan. Otherwise, how would I have the opportunity to attend such a grand dinner?"

"Miss Gu, you are joking. As Mr. Lu Lang's apprentice and Ting Shen's wife, you are naturally qualified to attend this dinner."

Gu Mian smiled and said, "I haven't had the chance to ask, are Lawyer Yan and Ting Shen close friends?"

Yan Mu did not answer directly, "What's wrong?"

"I think you two must have a good relationship, otherwise you wouldn't drink together, and you helped him lie to me."

Yan Mu was curious, "When did I help him deceive you?"

"That day at the Golden Dynasty, he wasn't drunk at all."

Yan Mu: “…”

"Are you not drunk?"

Gu Mian said nothing, just looked at him.

Yan Mu felt uncomfortable being looked at. "Ms. Gu, he did drink quite a bit before I called you. After I helped him into the lounge, I was afraid that something might happen to him, so I had to call you to come."

Gu Mian frowned, "So he doesn't know you called me?"

"Of course." Yan Mu suddenly realized, "You don't think that he pretended to be drunk on purpose and asked me to trick you here, do you?"

"You are husband and wife, so it is reasonable for you to take care of him. There is no need to go through so much trouble."

Gu Mian lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something.

"So you guys have been having a quarrel recently, is it because of this?" Yan Mu asked.

"Of course not." Gu Mian raised his eyes, "I misunderstood this matter. I will apologize to him."

"I really admire Miss Gu's straightforward character." Yan Mu raised his glass, "I toast to you."

Gu Mian clinked glasses with him, took a sip of champagne, and suddenly saw a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.

"Excuse me, Attorney Yan."

Yan Mu looked in the direction Gu Mian left, and was startled when he saw the man walking in!
