Chapter 58 "Ultimate Pull"

When Gu Ningqi figured out where the enoki mushroom came from, he was shocked.

The shock was so great that he fell into a strange state.

He felt as if his soul had left his body.

It just left his body and floated on the ceiling, looking at himself quietly.

Looking at himself staring at the half of the enoki mushroom in his hand.

His body and soul were lost in thought.

He sat in that not-so-clean compartment for a long time and didn't even notice when the boy left.

At the banquet.

Shen Xingran was staying in the corner, listening to the people around him asking about his well-being.

Usually, this kind of banquet was his home turf.

This time, he stayed quietly in an inconspicuous place.

But the more he did this, the more people he knew came around.

Soon, this small corner was surrounded by a whole circle of people.

It was more eye-catching than if he stayed in the center of the venue.

No matter what he thought in his heart, everyone looked at him comfortingly: "Ranran, don't worry, even if he comes back, uncle and aunt will not treat you unfairly."

Shen Xingran smiled calmly:

"Brother has suffered so much outside, it is only right that mom and dad compensate him more."

Hearing what he said, many people who knew about the things between him and Lu Ran secretly rolled their eyes. You

said it like a flower.

You are so generous, why are you still saying that other people's biological sons are illegitimate children outside?

Why are you pretending, you are so teary.

Amidst the flattery and tacit silence, someone asked curiously:

"Ranran, this time when Gu Ningqi returned to China, is he here to find you?"

Shen Xingran sighed slowly: "What's the point of looking for me. The Gu family's engagement was made with my brother, I should bless them."

Although he said he was blessing others, didn't he still admit that Gu Ningqi was here to find him? He could

accurately taste the meaning of Shen Xingran's words.

The attitudes of the people around him were slowly changing again.

Shen Xingran raised the wine glass to cover the arc of his mouth.

Even if Lu Ran came back, so what.

He had the love of his parents, as well as Gu Ningqi and the Gu family's engagement.

He was still the most beloved youngest son of the Shen family.

The people around him also knew this.

After the death of Mr. Shen, the Shen family was in a state of collapse, relying solely on the Gu family to support themselves.

Although now that Shen Xingyu is in power, Shen finally has signs of improvement.

But Shen Xingyu is still too young.

He doesn’t have the Ji family’s troubled and bloody rise to power.

Therefore, the Gu family is still very important to Shen.

Gu Ningqi was devoted to Shen Xingran, the next heir to the Gu family.

No one wants to get in trouble with Shen Xingran.

Some people couldn't help but secretly ask: "Brother Gu should be here soon, right?"

At this point, everyone's faces suddenly showed a look of watching a good show.

Lu Ran was finally recognized back to the Shen family today.

The heir of the Gu family came for Shen Xingran, and he might even tear up the engagement and throw it on Lu Ran's face.

At the most glorious moment when Lu Ran was recognized as a member of the Shen family,

he called Gu Ningqi and gave him a hard slap.

This move was really amazing.

It seemed that even if Lu Ran was officially recognized as a member of the Shen family, he would not have a good life.

Everyone was thinking about it, some sighed in their hearts, and some wanted to watch the show.

Especially the one who was said to have food on his teeth by Lu Ran, and the one whose wig was pulled out.

But after waiting for a long time, Gu Ningqi was never seen.

Instead, Lu Ran was already walking around the banquet.

No matter what the guests thought in private, they all showed concern for Lu Ran, the child who had been missing for fifteen years.

At this time, Lu Ran had already recognized almost all the important people in the banquet with his dog.

Some of Shen Xingran's loyal brothers couldn't help but clench their fists: "Look at him, it's so annoying!"

Some people couldn't help but whisper: "Why hasn't Brother Ning Qi come yet?"

"Didn't they say that his flight has arrived?"

"Could it be..."

As time went by, these whispers gradually increased.

The eyes of the people around Shen Xingran gradually became suspicious.

Shen Xingran panicked for a moment and couldn't help pinching his fingers.

He took out his mobile phone. He

found that there was a call from an unfamiliar number on his mobile phone.

During this period of time, Shen Xingran has become very familiar with these unfamiliar numbers.

Because he blocked Gu Ningqi's contact information, Gu Ningqi has been changing numbers like crazy to contact him recently.

The moment he saw the phone, Shen Xingran felt relieved.

However, Gu Ningqi had not come for such a long time, and Shen Xingran was a little angry.

He still didn't answer the call.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Xingran glanced at the people who were whispering around him inconspicuously.

He sneered in his heart, Gu Ningqi will be here soon, and these people can just wait to be slapped in the face.

The biggest topic of conversation at today's banquet is the marriage between the Gu family and the Shen family.

This was done on purpose by Shen Xingran.

A few days ago, he deliberately released the news that Gu Ningqi had returned to China to direct public opinion to this topic.

It was for this moment!

When Gu Ningqi arrives, he will tell everyone present that even though he, Shen Xingran, is an adopted son, he cannot be looked down upon.

Gu Ningqi will also embarrass Lu Ran in public and let everyone see clearly the position of Lu Ran in the Shen family.

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Shen Xingran smiled with confidence.

And at this moment.

Suddenly, the entrance of the banquet was quiet.

Only a tall figure slowly walked in from the entrance.

Shen Xingran was delighted, here he comes!

He pretended not to see it, and turned his back to the entrance and talked to his friends as if nothing had happened.

Just waiting for Gu Ningqi to walk towards him, everyone frantically reminded him.

Soon.

Shen Xingran saw that the friend in front of him also noticed the figure at the entrance.

The friend's eyes began to stare.

The friend's mouth slowly opened.

The friend's jaw dropped to the ground.

Shen Xingran was surprised and satisfied.

Are these people so surprised? It seems that Gu Ningqi's appearance this time is very special.

It actually made the well-informed people in the circle show such an expression!

Shen Xingran couldn't help but look forward to it.

He was still waiting for others to remind him "as if nothing had happened".

Just to give Gu Ningqi a panicked and unexpected look back.

There must be a moist light in his eyes, as innocent and pure as a deer in the woods in the early morning!

And Gu Ningqi will definitely hold his hand eagerly and affectionately!

At that time, someone will definitely turn him around and take a picture of the scene of him and Gu Ningqi looking at each other affectionately.

Shen Xingran rehearsed it in her mind eight hundred times.

But as she waited...

everyone around her had their jaws dropped to the ground.

No one was surprised to remind Shen Xingran.

Shen Xingran was so anxious, and at the same time, she became more and more curious about what Gu Ningqi had done to surprise so many people.

Finally, someone looked at the approaching man, and then at Shen Xingran.

He stuttered and reminded, "Xingran, Ning Qi is here... Is that Ning Qi?"

Shen Xingran followed the flow and turned around in a panic.

Gu Ningqi's tall and handsome figure immediately came into view. The

man had thick eyebrows and sharp eyes, and he was still the look Shen Xingran was most familiar with. There

was still a trace of inexplicable panic and anxiety on his face, exactly as Shen Xingran imagined.

Panic is the fear of being abandoned by him.

Anxiety is because of the urgent need to see him.

But...

Shen Xingran took a closer look at Gu Ningqi's appearance and was stunned.

Gu Ningqi's hair was half wet, and there was moisture on his face.

He looked like he had no hairstyle at all.

Not only that, he even looked a bit down and out. What

was even more shocking was his outfit. He

was wearing a wrinkled black suit jacket on the upper body, and no one knew where his tie had gone.

It was wrinkled as if it had experienced some cruel and inhumane ravages.

On the lower body, he was wearing a pair of trousers that were obviously made of fine material and full of design.

But it was just trousers.

It seemed as if half of a high-end dress was stripped off.

There were water stains on the trouser legs, as if he had stepped into a hole while walking.

In short... they were extremely vicious.

Shen Xingran was stunned.

He had expected that Gu Ningqi could not come due to something, or that the Gu family would intervene to stop him and Gu Ningqi.

Shen Xingran even expected that if Gu Ningqi fell in love with Lu Ran...

he had thought about all the consequences.

But he never expected that Gu Ningqi would come, but he came in such an image of falling into a toilet...

Gu Ningqi came to Shen Xingran under the gaze of everyone.

He stared at Shen Xingran, his eyes filled with tears, his lips trembling, and asked: "Why didn't you answer my call?"

The content of this question was the same as Shen Xingran had imagined.

But with Gu Ningqi's outfit... why did it sound more and more wrong the more he listened?

Gu Ningqi almost cried.

No one knew what he had been through.

After he pulled out the enoki mushroom, he sat alone in the cubicle for a long time before he mustered up the courage to stand up. He ran to the sink and washed himself madly.

After he finished washing, Gu Ningqi realized that he was facing a huge problem.

How... was he going to get out?

After all the hassles, the high-end suit he had just changed into was no longer presentable.

Not only was there a large wet spot on the collar, but it also smelled like the toilet.

As for his pants...

they were still hanging around his ankles.

Gu Ningqi wanted to call his assistant.

But he had just asked the assistant who was delivering the clothes to go back.

He returned to China today, actually he had important work to report.

He came to Shen's house, so he could only hand over the task of reporting to his assistant.

Even if he called now, he couldn't get through!

But he couldn't stay in the toilet forever, right?

Gu Ningqi really didn't want to stay here for a moment.

He suddenly thought of Shen Xingran, and called Shen Xingran with hope.

He hoped that Shen Xingran would get him a set of clean clothes.

But this life-saving call was hung up by Shen Xingran!

Hang up!

Gu Ningqi gritted his teeth and could only look at the clothes he had just changed.

This was the black suit he wore when he got off the plane. It was businesslike and simple.

Although it was already wrinkled, it was clean at least.

Gu Ningqi quickly changed his shirt.

After changing, he couldn't find the matching pants.

After searching carefully, he found that the clothes he had just hung on the door panel of the compartment had fallen down.

It happened to fall into the pit.

Gu Ningqi had no choice but to pick up the high-end pants and put them on.

After putting them on, he found that the pants were stained with a lot of water.

He chose the champagne color of a sack as the fabric, and now it darkened a bit after getting wet, which was very obvious.

It couldn't be more obvious.

Gu Ningqi couldn't go out naked.

He had already thought about it.

He only told Shen Xingran that he was returning to China, and outsiders should not know.

So as long as he was careful, no one would notice him.

The most important thing now was to go in and find Shen Xingran and ask him to find him some clean clothes!

Gu Ningqi thought very well.

He also tried to make himself inconspicuous.

But as soon as he walked out of the toilet in the corner of the villa.

He heard someone calling him: "Gu Ningqi! You are back home after all!"

Gu Ningqi: "..."

It was agreed that no one would know!

When this voice came out, everyone looked at him!

Not only that, Gu Ningqi also heard people everywhere talking about the engagement between their Gu family and the Shen family.

Talking about him, Gu Ningqi, and Shen Xingran.

Under normal circumstances, Gu Ningqi would enjoy other people's attention the most.

But now...

he just felt like he was running naked in this villa.

After finally entering the hall, Gu Ningqi just wanted to find Shen Xingran without attracting attention.

He finally found Shen Xingran, and stood in an empty corner, trying to wave at Shen Xingran.

But Shen Xingran seemed to be stuck in the same place.

He just didn't turn around and look at him!

Gu Ningqi was almost anxious to death!

He tried to hint for a long time, but in the end he couldn't, so he could only walk towards Shen Xingran step by step through the crowd.

At this moment, Shen Xingran looked at Gu Ningqi and hadn't reacted yet.

In his imagination, Gu Ningqi would hold his hand and confess to him eagerly.

Announced in public that the Gu family's engagement had nothing to do with Lu Ran, and announced that he looked down on Lu Ran.

He said that in the world, he was only willing to marry him.

And of course he would not agree immediately.

He would kindly argue and let Gu Ningqi find Lu Ran.

Gu Ningqi would only be more persistent when he heard his refusal.

Shen Xingran was going to have an extreme dispute with Gu Ningqi in front of all the guests at the banquet prepared for Lu Ran.

And now, Gu Ningqi has taken the first step.

He eagerly held Shen Xingran's hand.

Then he whispered, "Do you have clean pants?"

Shen Xingran: "..."

Do you have clean pants?

These plain and simple words shattered the romantic scene he had carefully imagined.
