Chapter 143: Fishing for a rich girl?
"Sister An Xi, Mr. Le." Gu Ning called.
"Miss Gu," Le Zhengyu called politely.
"Mr. Le, Miss An." Qin Yifan also greeted them.
"Mr. Qin," An Qian and Le Zhengyu also called politely.
"I was wondering who is so eye-catching! Turns out it's you!" An Xi looked at Gu Ning and joked with a smile.
"It's just our group that's so conspicuous." Gu Ning said modestly. She certainly wouldn't be narcissistic and think that she was the only reason she attracted attention.
An Xi just smiled and said nothing. She turned her head and saw a familiar figure behind Gu Ning. She was slightly surprised: "Xiao Yi, don't you hate this kind of occasion? Why are you interested in coming here today?"
"Cousin, I'm interested because several of my good friends are here!" An Yi called.
Gu Ning was quite surprised. She didn't expect An Yi and An Xi to be cousins! "Okay! Then you guys play. Zheng Yu and I will go over there and say hello to our friends first." An Xi wanted to join Gu Ning and the others, but Le Zheng Yu still needed to say hello to his acquaintances, and as his female companion, she naturally had to follow.
Then, An Xi and Le Zhengyu said goodbye.
Qin Yifan brought Gu Ning and the others to the sofa and sat down. Qin Zixun knew that Qin Yifan was not idle today, so he said, "Brother, you go and entertain the others! I'll be here."
"Okay! Then you entertain Gu Ning and the others well. I'll be busy now." Although Qin Yifan wanted to talk to Gu Ning, he also knew that he was really needed to entertain them today. So he had to instruct Qin Zixun to take good care of Gu Ning and the others before leaving.
When some rich girls saw Qin Yifan alone, they couldn't wait to strike up a conversation with him.
Out of politeness, Qin Yifan showed warmth in his appearance even though he was repulsed in his heart.
"What would you like to drink? I'll get it for you." Qin Zixun asked.
"Red wine," said Gu Ning.
"I want some red wine too," said Chu Peihan.
"I want some juice!" Yu Mixi said. She was still not used to drinking.
As for the older boys, they naturally drank red wine.
There were many men around who wanted to come over and chat with Gu Ning and the other girls, but Qin Zixun and a few other boys were there, standing and sitting around them like bodyguards, so they didn't dare to come over.
There were also some girls who wanted to chat with Qin Zixun and his friends, but they didn't dare to come.
"You guys are standing here, making those people afraid to come and talk to you." Chu Peihan said with a teasing smile.
"Men who casually chat up beautiful women are not serious. Besides, look at how ugly those guys are. They are not even as good-looking as us!" Qin Zixun said to the other party with a look of disgust and narcissism.
"That's right. Isn't it enough for us, these handsome and elegant guys, to stand beside you?" Haoran said.
"You two are too familiar with each other, it's meaningless." Chu Peihan said with disdain.
Qin Zixun and the others were speechless and ignored her.
Just then, several people saw an acquaintance coming, Qin Zheng.
Although Qin Zheng's father's surname is also Qin, he has no relationship with Qin Yifan's family.
Qin Zheng was originally tall and handsome, and now in a suit and tie, he looked a bit more mature, with a gentle and elegant air, which attracted the attention of many young girls.
However, Gu Ning and others knew what kind of person Qin Zheng was.
"What is he doing here? He can't be here to hook up with a rich girl!" Haoran asked curiously, with a serious attitude.
"Puff"
Hearing this, Gu Ning and the others couldn't help but burst out laughing. They thought Hao Ran's words were funny and shocking. After all, Qin Zheng's family was invited, so there was nothing strange about them coming to the banquet.
However, Haoran's words did not make them feel that it was excessive.
After all, at these banquets, most adults come to build relationships and establish friendships, and the same goes for those who bring their children, who come to build relationships and establish friendships with the daughters of those businessmen.
It would be even better if I could get together with a rich boy.
Of course, they are all selective and will not take a fancy to something that is not beneficial to them.
This is the trend among high-ranking families, most of them are focused on profit.
Wasn't the reason why Qin Zheng was with Gu Xiaoxiao before because he was attracted by Gu Xiaoxiao's family background? Although Gu Xiaoxiao's family background was nothing compared to the people who came to the banquet this time, with Qin Zheng's conditions, he could only seduce people with Gu Xiaoxiao's family background.
The real wealthy families would not look down on Qin Zheng's family background because they have higher standards.
It's fine to treat it as a connection, but as for becoming in-laws, it would be difficult unless the other party's daughter really loves Qin Zheng to death and is willing to marry him.
After a while, Qin Zheng also saw Gu Ning and his group. He was particularly amazed when he saw Gu Ning, and was immediately stunned.
He knew that Gu Ning and Qin Zixun were friends, so he was not too surprised to see Gu Ning here. However, he knew that Gu Ning was beautiful, but he did not expect that after dressing up, Gu Ning would be so beautiful.
For a moment, Qin Zheng was completely devastated and regretted breaking up with Gu Ning so much.
And at this moment, he no longer worried about whether Gu Ning's family background was worthy of him. He knew that he fell in love with Gu Ning.
It’s a pity that he didn’t dare to go up and talk to Gu Ning.
Chu Peihan moved closer to Gu Ning and said gloatingly, "Look at the way he looks at you. He must be regretting it so much that he's almost dying!"
In fact, Chu Peihan couldn't understand why Gu Ning, who was such an outstanding person, had fallen for Qin Zheng before. Even though this was true, she still felt it was impossible.
Yes, if the previous Gu Ning was the current Gu Ning, she would naturally not be attracted to Qin Zheng, but the current Gu Ning and the previous Gu Ning are two different people.
Hearing Chu Peihan's words, Gu Ning just smiled and said nothing.
She could naturally see that Qin Zheng regretted it, but she didn't care because she had never taken Qin Zheng seriously.
A few minutes later, An Guangyao also arrived, but as soon as he arrived, a discordant male voice rang out: "Hey! Isn't this Mr. An from Shenghua Real Estate? I heard that your company has been sold, but you are still the chairman of Shenghua Real Estate. No, it should be the executive director. Congratulations!"
Congratulations?
They're bankrupt, and you're still congratulating them?
Although he was referring to the fact that An Guangyao could still be the chairman, his company had gone bankrupt. Was it more worthy of congratulations that he could still be the chairman than that the company went bankrupt? Obviously, this was a roundabout way of gloating, and everyone could hear it.
But the business world is like a battlefield. Naturally, there are few real friends among businessmen. They all can’t stand to see others doing well.
Therefore, it is not only this man who has the thought of gloating over other people's misfortune, but many others also have the same thought, but they will not say it out loud in public like this man.
