Gu Qingming wanted to make amends for this matter, "If you like this skirt, I can buy you a new one. There are a few more in the mall recently. You will like it."
Li Xiujun never cared about this skirt.
She shook her head in disappointment. "It seems you never understand me. Anyway, this is the reputation of your Gu family. I won't say anything more. Let it be!"
She lifted the hem of her skirt and tried to leave the field, taking with her the skirt stained by the glass of red wine.
Li Tian also took the opportunity to approach Gu Qingming, "Brother Qingming, I didn't mean to do that just now! Li Xiujun is so angry, as if I really did something wrong."
Gu Qingming glanced at her with disgust, "What does this have to do with you?"
Gu Ming continued to mock Li Tian, "I advise you not to work hard on this matter, so as not to embarrass yourself."
Li Tian glared at Gu Ming and continued to follow Gu Qingming.
A painter present suddenly stepped forward and sighed, "Mr. Gu, it's such a shame that your daughter-in-law's dress was ruined by a glass of red wine. How about this, I paint a picture on it as a token of my gratitude for your invitation today?"
Old Master Gu was very grateful to this man for giving him a way out, not to mention that his work was the first of its kind in the imperial capital.
He immediately said, "That's fine, but I'm afraid my wife won't agree, and that would waste your kindness."
Li Xiujun was also afraid that the atmosphere would become awkward. She never wanted to embarrass Mr. Gu, so she agreed. "Since this gentleman is willing, thank you very much!"
The painter quickly prepared paper and pen, ready to paint on it. Gu Qingming said jealously, "It's just a skirt. My Gu family won't mind."
"I do mind." Li Xiujun deliberately wanted to contradict Gu Qingming, "This skirt is very beautiful. I like it very much."
Gu Qingming's words were a little stagnant. He actually didn't understand why this girl always opposed him.
Next to him, there was a dog-skin plaster that he couldn't get rid of. Li Tian was obsessed with calling out to Brother Qingming, "Why don't you pay attention to me? We've known each other for so many years, and you just pay attention to me, what's wrong with that?"
Gu Qingming saw through her and his stupidity. Not only did he not want to pay any attention to this person, he even walked away.
Old Master Gu finally came to his senses and greeted the rest of the crowd. He was truly apologetic, "I'm truly sorry, everyone, for causing such a farce today. That girl is the daughter of my benefactor, and she finally returned from abroad. I had no choice but to do this!"
Everyone sympathized with Mr. Gu, "It's not easy for you either."
To have to deal with such a disaster.
The painter spent half an hour painting on Li Xiujun's skirt. Everyone stared at it. When the painting was completed, they were amazed. Then there was the usual praise and applause.
The painter also praised Li Xiujun's appearance, saying, "In our imperial capital, it's rare to find a girl as beautiful as you."
When Gu Qingming heard this, jealousy surged in his heart. He knew that Li Xiujun would ignore him, so he left angrily.
Li Tian followed her again, and she said anxiously, "Let me tell you! What's so good about this person? She's fickle. So what if she's pretty? She still messes with other people every day."
"It's better to divorce her as soon as possible. This is better than anything else. Brother Qingming, I am really thinking about you. Why don't you look around you and see if there are people who are more suitable for you."
Gu Qingming had been patient again and again, but finally he could no longer bear it.
He stood up with a dark face, buttoning his suit at the same time, veins running down his hands. "Li Tian, be quiet. The old man asked you to come here today just to repay a favor, but from today on, you have no relationship with our Gu family."
"That's why I didn't kick you out today, but I hope you can be self-aware and not say anything you shouldn't."
At this time, the banquet hall had returned to normal. Most of the people present wanted to take this opportunity to take their business to the next level, so the farce just now did not have much impact on them.
The painter continued to chat with Li Xiujun, "If possible, can you let me draw a picture of you? You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen."
"No need!" Li Xiujun felt a little uncomfortable. This person always stared at her when he spoke. She didn't like that weird look.
"Don't go!" The painter quickly grabbed Li Xiujun's arm. "I just told you so much! You should know it by now! I just came back from abroad not long ago, and I've never seen a woman as beautiful as you."
"You know what?" He gradually approached, "I like you. I've liked you since the first time I saw you."
Li Xiujun's heart was filled with alarm.
She retreated in resistance, "I'm already married! And this is the Gu family, please be quiet, or I'll call for help."
Even though Li Xiujun said this, the painter was not anxious at all. He said calmly, "Don't think I don't know. Your marriage is fake. It was just a contract from the beginning."
"Then why can't you like someone else?" He pointed at himself, "As long as you can accept me, I will definitely let you live the life you want."
"Shut up." Li Xiujun wanted to escape, but because her dress was too big and her steps were hurried and uneasy, she had no way to get away.
The painter smiled obscenely and stretched out his hand. "I told you long ago that we are a perfect match. Even God doesn't want you to leave."
"Get out of my way." Li Xiujun grabbed the painter's neck.
The painter, however, enjoyed it very much. “Your hands feel so comfortable.”
Li Xiujun got goosebumps all over her body, and her hoarse voice was filled with despair, "Get out of here!"
The painter wanted to take another step, but his body was suddenly lifted up. Gu Qingming rushed over and punched the man, "If you dare to touch him with your hand again, try it."
He has always had a gentle personality, but this time, there was murderous intent in his eyes and his blood was boiling.
The painter was finally arrested by the police, and the Gu family's family dinner this time really became a joke.
Old Master Gu was lying in bed with a headache.
Gu Qingming was afraid that something might happen to Li Xiujun, so he followed her closely. However, Li Xiujun still refused to accept him. "What happened between us was fake. Even if the painter didn't mention it, I would still remember it."
"So," she said with all her courage, "Your status is not equal, so you may look down on me from a high position, but have you ever thought that you don't like this distance?"
"Let's think about our relationship again!"
