Gu Yao led her directly to a counter and pointed to a set of jewelry inside.
"Sir, you have excellent taste. This is a brand new model that just arrived."
A beautiful saleswoman in a form-fitting, deep-V business suit enthusiastically took out the jewelry set.
"Sir, is this a gift for your wife? What is her ring size?" The saleswoman's voice was sweet and coquettish, sending shivers down one's spine.
Before she could finish speaking, Gu Yao took her hand and put the ring on her finger.
Gu Yao nodded with satisfaction: "He's the one."
The beautiful saleswoman behind the counter was completely mesmerized.
But when Gu Yao placed the card in front of her, the clerk immediately came to her senses.
So, during the card-swiping process, only Zhou Chunhua was completely bewildered.
It wasn't until she left the jewelry store that Zhou Chunhua came to her senses.
"What is this for?" she asked.
Gu Yao said, "We'll need it in a little while."
Then, Gu Yao took her back to the car.
When the car stopped, they had already arrived at the state guesthouse.
Zhou Chunhua looked completely bewildered, her eyes filled with question marks.
Keep in mind, this was her first time visiting the State Guesthouse.
This place is called a hotel, but it mainly caters to people from higher up and some municipal meetings.
Of course, if you have enough money, holding a wedding banquet here would be quite prestigious.
Before anyone could react, Gu Yao had already opened the car door from the outside.
She got off the car for no apparent reason, and then Gu Yao handed her over to a woman wearing a name tag on her chest.
Zhou Chunhua noticed that the woman's name tag read "Manager".
Before she could even react, she had been ushered into a guest room.
Three young girls dressed as hotel staff rushed up to the room and quickly stripped her clothes off.
"Wait! What are you doing?"
"Hey! I'm screaming for help!"
Before she could even cry for help, she changed into a cheongsam.
It's made of silk embroidery and looks very expensive.
Next, we styled her hair, put on jewelry, and did her makeup.
In no time, less than half an hour later, she stood in front of the dressing mirror looking completely refreshed.
"The outfit that Teacher Gu chose for you is really perfect for you."
Indeed, even Zhou Chunhua herself was stunned.
To put it simply, in her forty-plus years of life, this was the first time she had ever realized she could be this beautiful.
By the time she came to her senses, Gu Yao was already standing behind her.
"this……"
"Let's go eat."
Then, looking completely bewildered, she was pulled away from the guest room by Gu Yao, walked through a luxurious corridor, and arrived at the entrance of a banquet hall.
Inside the banquet hall, the melodious sound of violins filled the air, and groups of two or three people chatted and laughed.
"This is……"
"Eat a meal and then watch a show."
As he spoke, Gu Yao pulled her to a corner where there were hardly any people.
Then... Zhou Chunhua saw a familiar figure from behind.
Liao Nanxing! After all, I've been watching him for over twenty years, so of course I could recognize him at a glance. It's just... Liao Nanxing's back view looks much older.
The woman arm in arm with him must be Su Mu.
However, Su Mujing's thin, almost sickly figure gave her goosebumps.
Those thin arms and legs didn't resemble a normal person at all.
Just as they were engrossed in watching, they heard Gu Yao say, "Come on, let's eat while we watch."
Gu Yao handed her a plate containing salad and cake.
Very exquisite.
As the music stopped, a pretty woman in a snow-white trailing dress walked onto the center stage with a microphone.
After listening to the welcoming speech, Zhou Chunhua belatedly realized that this was the banquet that Qin Xiuyuan had wanted to invite her to the previous night.
She couldn't help but look at Liao Nanxing's back.
Liao Nanxing had been married to him for over twenty years, and such banquets were held every year.
At its peak, there were seven or eight events a year.
Sometimes there are only three or four games.
But Liao Nanxing never took her to participate even once.
She didn't even know that it was necessary to bring a female companion to such an occasion.
Looking back now, it's truly ironic.
Needless to say, Su Mu was definitely the one who used to be by Liao Nanxing's side.
So... what about those twenty-odd years? A joke!
Lost in thought, I heard the host invite Liao Nanxing to the stage to give a speech.
Amidst applause, Liao Nanxing stepped out of the crowd and onto the stage.
After her speech, Zhou Chunhua learned that Liao Nanxing, who had been expelled from school, had become the editor-in-chief of this publishing house.
Amidst thunderous applause, Liao Nanxing suddenly looked in her direction.
The smile on his face suddenly froze.
After his speech, Liao Nanxing stepped down from the stage.
However, to Zhou Chunhua's surprise, Liao Nanxing walked straight towards her.
"Zhou Chunhua! Do you know what he's done? How could you be with him!"
Liao Nanxing's voice was low and clenched as he gritted his teeth.
The way he looked at Gu Yao was as if he wanted to tear Gu Yao apart and devour him.
Zhou Chunhua didn't want to talk to him and tried to find another place by pulling Gu Yao along.
Unexpectedly, when Liao Nanxing tried to pull her, Gu Yao blocked his outstretched hand.
"Zhou Chunhua, are you just going to stand by and watch him ruin me? Or did you instruct him to do all this?"
Faced with Liao Nanxing's questioning, Zhou Chunhua didn't hesitate and blurted out, "That's right! I'm the one who made him do it."
"You..." Liao Nanxing looked at her with a surprised expression.
Gu Yao also had the same expression.
Just as Zhou Chunhua was about to pull Gu Yao away...
