Gu Ye's way of doing things is completely opposite to Shang Yan's.
He is very high-profile, frequently speaks out on the internet, and it's common for him to trend on social media.
The sensation caused by his Weibo post announcing his marriage to his girlfriend a little over a month ago was no less than that of Shang Yan and Li Susu's official announcement.
So, everyone recognized him at a glance!
Normally, they could only see news about the Four Young Masters of Beijing online. Now, two of the Four Young Masters suddenly appeared in front of them. They felt like they were dreaming. They were very excited and thrilled!
As the crowd whispered among themselves, Yu Sheng frowned slightly.
She felt neither excitement nor exhilaration, but confusion and bewilderment!
Before she could even ponder why Gu Ye was here, she heard Shang Yan's teasing voice: "What a coincidence, Mr. Gu, is there something you need from me?"
Yu Sheng glanced at Shang Yan, who remained seated in the same position as before, showing no intention of getting up, exuding a kingly aura!
Gu smiled and said, "I'm not looking for you, I'm looking for Director Bu!"
Bu Yizhuo knew Gu Ye, but had never interacted with him. Seeing him talking to Shang Yan, he assumed Gu Ye was looking for Shang Yan, so he remained seated. He was somewhat surprised when Gu Ye said he was looking for him.
Although he didn't know what Gu Ye wanted to see him about, he still hurriedly got up and walked towards Gu Ye, "I wonder what Mr. Gu wants to see me about?"
Gu didn't answer Bu Yizhuo directly, but instead smiled and glanced at Shang Yan, then looked at Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng was originally looking at Gu Ye, but when she saw him looking at her, she lowered her eyes guiltily.
A jumble of eyes stared at the tightly clenched hands, wondering what Gu Ye wanted from Bu Yizhuo, when they heard Gu Ye's voice, tinged with laughter, say, "I want to sponsor Band A!"
Gu Ye's words caught everyone off guard, including Yu Sheng!
When she first heard him say he was looking for Bu Yizhuo, she guessed several possibilities, but she never guessed that he wanted to sponsor their band.
Even if he wanted to sponsor their band, shouldn't he have told her beforehand?
They were negotiating with other sponsors when he suddenly came along and offered to sponsor them—it was completely out of the blue!
Yu Sheng was a little angry, but she held back her anger because of the occasion.
For Bu Yizhuo, more sponsors mean more opportunities and more choices. Moreover, Xinye, the parent company behind Libu, is also a domestic giant, so he naturally couldn't be happier.
Even so, he still found it hard to believe. "Mr. Gu, you want to sponsor our A Band?"
Gu said with certainty, "Yes, I want to sponsor you. Since we've met today, is it convenient for us to chat?"
Bu Yizhuo lowered his voice, mindful of Shang Yan's presence: "First of all, on behalf of the seven members of Band A, I would like to thank President Gu for his appreciation... However, it's not convenient to talk about this today... President Shang also plans to sponsor us, and our meeting with him here is to discuss cooperation with him."
Upon hearing Bu Yizhuo's words, Gu Ye pretended not to know that Shang Yan had funded them, and looked at Shang Yan with a smile, "President Shang, I really didn't expect that we would think of the same thing. Since we've run into each other, why don't we sit down and chat together? It will save Director Bu from having to lead everyone to chat with me separately. Director Bu, don't you think so?"
Before Bu Yizhuo could answer, Gu Ye walked up to Zhou Jiashu, gripped the back of his chair, and said with a smile, "Commander, your seat is closest to Director Bu and President Shang. To make it easier for us to talk, could you give it to me?"
Zhou Jiashu's position is indeed closest to Bu Yizhuo and Shang Yan.
But he felt that Gu's true intentions were not what they seemed.
Even though she was unwilling, she still said, "Of course."
As Zhou Jiashu got up and walked toward the empty seat next to Qin Xinbo, Bu Yizhuo asked Gu Ye, "Does President Gu know Jiashu?"
Gu glanced at Yu Sheng without showing any emotion and smiled, "My wife knows her."
Yu Sheng, who was sulking with her head down, felt a surge of inexplicable anger rise within her upon hearing his words.
Although he didn't mention her name, she was still angry when he said it on purpose.
Bu Yizhuo then looked at Zhou Jiashu: "Why have I never heard you mention this before?"
Before Zhou Jiashu could speak, Gu Ye said, "My wife prefers to keep a low profile, so I specifically asked the troupe leader not to mention to anyone that she is my wife."
Bu Yizhu flattered, "In today's society, there aren't many women with such low-key and unassuming qualities. No wonder President Gu has liked her for ten years."
"Indeed, not many."
Gu retorted without any modesty, and then sat down in the seat that Zhou Jiashu had given him.
After Bu Yizhuo asked the waiter to change the tableware, he also took a seat.
With Gu Ye on his left and Shang Yan on his right, he was sandwiched between the two giants, feeling both flattered and at a loss.
He raised his glass and said to Gu Ye and Shang Yan, "President Gu, President Shang, let me first toast you, thank you for your appreciation."
Gu Ye and Shang Yan also raised their wine glasses in a gesture of respect.
After the three clinked glasses, Li Ran, eager to try her hand at wine, picked up her glass, stood up, and said to Gu Ye and Shang Yan, "President Gu, President Shang, I'd like to toast you both as well."
Shang Yan and Gu Ye acted as if they hadn't heard what Li Ran said, not even glancing at her.
Li Ran was extremely embarrassed. She forced herself to drink the wine in one gulp before sitting down with a stiff face.
Shang Yan stroked his chin and looked at Gu Ye teasingly: "No wonder President Gu was able to turn Libu around from loss to profit in just two years. Turns out, doing business is all about robbing people!"
Gu Ye retorted with a smile: "President Shang, you're wrong about that. As long as there's no contract between us, I have the right to compete fairly, don't you agree?"
"You have the right to compete fairly, but isn't it a bit against the rules to forcibly intervene when others are discussing cooperation?"
Shang Yan's tone and expression remained unchanged, but his aura suddenly intensified, giving people a strong sense of pressure.
If Gu Ye hadn't been born into a prestigious family, he would definitely have been intimidated by Shang Yan's aura.
