Chapter 563 Fairy tales don’t lie (Twenty-three)
After entering the Ling family's living room, some people saw Fu Nanxing and actively came over to greet him.
They either ask about business trends or discuss the prospects and development of AI.
Gu Qingcheng didn't understand these topics and wasn't interested in them.
But these are the "social engagements" that Fu Nanxing must have as the president of Fu Corporation. As a considerate wife, she can't help, but she can't hold her husband back either.
"Nanxing, I'm going to go over there!"
Gu Qingcheng smiled at Fu Nanxing, pointed to the buffet table and said.
"Okay, don't go too far. I'll come find you later!"
Fu Nanxing really doesn't need to please or give in to others, but humans are social animals and it is impossible for them to really act alone.
Especially in business, necessary cooperation and social interaction must be taken into consideration.
Fu Nanxing is just cold-tempered, not stupid.
He is not like some brainless bosses who only know how to act cool and handsome and easily get into trouble. Instead, he has a certain degree of "smoothness".
This is not a question of backbone, but simply being well-educated!
Fu Nanxing himself represents the Fu Group, not the computer genius Tian Nanxing from his college days.
He is not afraid of offending people, but he will not offend people without reason.
"Yes! Don't worry, this is not the first time I attend such a party!"
Gu Qingcheng said something in a low voice, nodded to the "bosses" who wanted to chat with President Fu, and left.
"Oh, Madam Fu is not only beautiful, but also well-educated and well-mannered."
"Yes, yes, Mrs. Fu and Mr. Fu are indeed a match made in heaven."
Several veteran businessmen in the business world were happy to show their sweetness to the young couple and praised them a few words.
Fu Nanxing smiled slightly and responded, but did not continue the conversation on this topic.
He would not discuss his wife with outsiders.
"Mr. Chen is right. AI can be widely used in medical treatment. Our R&D team under Fu is currently developing special AI technologies for certain diseases."
Fu Nanxing quickly got to the point.
Others would approach Fu Nanxing to seek cooperation, and when they saw Fu Nanxing start talking about business, they all got into the mood.
Gu Qingcheng strolled to the dining table alone.
On the way, I met a waiter carrying a tray and grabbed a glass of red wine.
"Oh, this must be Madam Fu. She is indeed worthy of her reputation."
Gu Qingcheng was just pretending. She was pregnant and couldn't drink, but she still had to pretend.
At this time, someone came forward.
Gu Qingcheng: ...Oh no, this should be a classic, melodramatic "face-slapping" scene.
There are always a few lackeys around beautiful, rich and white women.
They either wanted to stand up for justice or were being used by others, and they jumped out to provoke the heroine without any reason.
As for the heroine, perhaps out of kindness or because she wants to consider the overall situation, she endures everything.
Being ridiculed, being splashed with red wine, being framed...
Until the male protagonist appeared like a god——
Well, okay, Gu Qingcheng admitted that she had read too many melodramatic novels and her mind began to have all kinds of messed up thoughts.
Reality is not fiction, there aren’t so many “brainless” people.
The second or N generation are not all brainless and dissolute as people imagine.
They have received elite education since childhood and grew up watching all kinds of "competition". Whether it is knowledge or experience, they are far beyond ordinary people.
At least in this old-fashioned campus novel, the Nth generation are not clowns serving as foils for the protagonist.
In fact, both Fu Nanxing and Ling Banxia came from wealthy families.
Their excellence is simply unattainable for ordinary people.
They were a few rich and beautiful ladies who came to help Ling Banxia vent his anger. They didn’t look like elites, but they weren’t really stupid either.
“Is it as good as its reputation?”
Gu Qingcheng pretended not to understand what the white, rich and beautiful woman in a black dress said. She blinked her eyes deliberately and said narcissistically, "I know I'm beautiful and a big shot in the literary world, but I didn't expect that my reputation has spread so far?"
"Even a young lady whom I don't even know has heard my name?"
Black skirt: ...
Why is this person so narcissistic?
Well, okay, Black Dress admits that Gu Qingcheng is indeed very beautiful, and can be called a "peerless beauty".
But what the Chinese are best at is humility.
Even if you know that you are as beautiful as a fairy, when people praise you, you will politely say "it's okay" or "it's just so-so".
Gu Qingcheng is so good, actually——
Wait, I didn't praise her either.
When I said "her reputation is well-deserved", I meant that she really came from a low-income family and didn't even know basic social etiquette.
Gu Qingcheng continued to smile faintly in the face of the woman in black dress's silence.
She also didn't care at all whether the way she held the wine glass was in line with the "norms" of the wealthy.
The girl in the black dress took a deep breath and decided not to discuss her appearance with the "shameless" Gu Qingcheng.
She was going to put it more bluntly.
Of course, being straightforward does not mean preaching with a look of disgust.
The girl in the black dress pretended to be kind and reminded quietly, "Mrs. Fu, it's wrong for you to hold the wine glass like this!"
As she spoke, the girl in the black dress called the waiter in a "teacher-like" manner and reached out to take a glass of champagne.
"Here, you see, you should use your index finger and thumb..."
Black skirt live demonstration.
The movements of her and Gu Qingcheng "attracted" several other socialites.
They gathered around.
"Yes! Elena is right."
"Mrs. Fu, you may not know much about red wine. If you hold the glass incorrectly, the temperature will be different, which will affect the taste of the wine."
"Yes, in social situations, you have to know the correct way to hold the cup."
Several beautiful, wealthy and pretty girls also kindly gave reminders.
In fact, they usually don’t strictly abide by the so-called rules.
A true daughter of a wealthy family can do whatever she wants.
However, they came to Gu Qingcheng at this moment just to remind her: Dear, you are incompatible with the wealthy! Unlike us (especially Banxia), we are all from wealthy families, have received elite education since childhood, and are familiar with social etiquette in various occasions.
From drinking, to eating Western food, to speech and behavior, there are certain norms.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
There is a clear difference between knowing how to do something but not doing it and not knowing how to do it.
People can be willful, but they cannot be ignorant.
Obviously, in the eyes of all the beautiful, wealthy girls, Gu Qingcheng, who came from a commoner family, was not from the same world as them.
She is not worthy of the excellent Fu Nanxing at all. Ling Banxia, who is also from a wealthy family, is more suitable to be the wife of the president of Fu Group.
"Oh? There is such a thing?"
Gu Qingcheng pretended to be surprised, but she was just surprised, and did not feel embarrassed or ashamed of being corrected in person.
She looked at the black dress demonstration, then at her own hands——
Well, indeed, she directly covered the entire wine glass with half of her palm, which was indeed not noble and elegant enough.
"Of course there are some rules!"
"Whether you hold the cup correctly or not not only affects the taste, but it can also be a sign of impoliteness."
Gu Qingcheng nodded, seeming to be very educated.
In the living room, some other ladies also saw or heard the noise here.
Mother Fu was sitting on the sofa nearby, chatting with Mother Ling and several other noble ladies.
I looked up and saw the situation here.
She couldn't help but feel a little worried -
The biggest reason why the daughter-in-law becomes depressed is that she is incompatible with the wealthy family.
The so-called social etiquette and the "well-intentioned" reminders from the rich ladies put a lot of pressure on her.
The daughter-in-law finally came out and stopped being stubborn, but now she was surrounded by people again.
Mother Fu was afraid that her daughter-in-law would be stimulated again, and then -
"Xinyi!"
Mother Fu called her daughter over and winked at her.
Fu Xinyi also saw the scene where her sister-in-law was "besieged" by several wealthy and beautiful girls. Even without her mother's reminder, she was about to go over.
Now that she had received her mother's instructions, she nodded quickly, lifted her skirt and walked over.
"Help me get it!"
Gu Qingcheng, after listening to the lectures of the rich and beautiful ladies, did not correct them immediately. Instead, she stopped a waiter and handed him the wine glass.
The waiter quickly took the wine glass and stood aside waiting.
All the white, rich and beautiful women: ... What does this Mrs. Fu mean? Is she angry out of shame?
Just stop drinking red wine? Just when everyone was puzzled, Gu Qingcheng took out her cell phone from her handbag.
After a few swipes, she clicked on a photo and showed it to everyone, "Everyone, she also took the wrong glass?"
The person in the photo is the queen of Country Y, the most expensive woman in the West.
As a result, people don't follow any rules when holding the cup.
Take it however you want! "Puff!"
Fu Xinyi had just arrived when he saw this scene.
She couldn't help but burst out laughing. If she hadn't been concerned about the other rich and beautiful ladies, she would have wanted to shout, "Sister-in-law, well done!" Even though Fu Xinyi didn't shout out, the rich and beautiful ladies felt embarrassed.
Especially the one in the black dress, she was the first to jump out and also demonstrated it herself.
I thought I could make Gu Qingcheng feel ashamed, but I didn't expect that the person who made a fool of herself was actually herself! "Huh? Why don't you say anything?"
"What is the correct way to hold the cup?"
Gu Qingcheng still felt that it was not enough, so she stabbed him twice more.
Her beautiful face was filled with confusion and innocence.
"Sister-in-law! Haha! There's nothing right or wrong!"
Fu Xinyi finally couldn't help it and burst into laughter.
In the wealthy circle, there are some people who like to show off.
However, the so-called social etiquette is not that rigid.
As long as it doesn't go too far, it's more about following your own wishes.
It's just a drink, how can it be comfortable?
If one blindly and rigidly adheres to etiquette, it either means that the rules are really strict, or that one lacks self-confidence and deliberately uses the so-called rules to elevate oneself.
But at the level of the Fu family, these are really not needed.
For example, Fu Xinyi, she doesn't pretend or act pretentiously.
If you want to laugh, just laugh out loud.
She can do this out of kindness and want to save face for everyone present, or she can act recklessly because she is confident enough.
"Sister-in-law, you look great like this! So beautiful and cool!"
When Fu Xinyi saw her eldest sister-in-law's quirky appearance, she understood more and more why her eldest brother was in love with her.
Sister-in-law, she lives very realistically, and is also very smart and lovely!
