Chapter 1137 My husband is not infatuated with me (15)
When Ju Shichu was brought to the banquet by Yan Cheng, she attracted a lot of attention. Of course, the main focus was Yan Cheng. She was like an expensive and beautiful ornament on Yan Cheng's body. Although she was also eye-catching, everyone was just amazed at her for a moment, and guessed her price and origin, and then no one took her seriously.
Ju Shichu hoped that no one would pay attention to her, but as Yan Cheng's female companion, she had to go with him to greet today's birthday boy and some big guys. After a few pleasantries, Ju Shichu got to know many big guys with names, but she did not feel excited or honored. When she greeted people, she was graceful and neither humble nor arrogant, which made those big guys who were used to flattery look at her with more respect.
Although Yan Cheng was not the protagonist today, probably because he became the final winner in the struggle of the Yan family, many people wanted to do business with him, so they talked to Yan Cheng about business matters, which Yan Cheng happened to be interested in, so they started chatting with him.
Ju Shichu felt a little bored, so he told Yan Cheng that he wanted to move freely, and Yan Cheng agreed.
Expensive ornaments would naturally attract the attention of outsiders if they were away from their owners. In fact, in the eyes of some people, Shichu was just a decoration of Yancheng. Now that she came out on her own, those who coveted her had an opportunity.
"Miss, are you interested in having a drink with me?" A handsome young man with a slicked-back hair walked up to Ju Shichu with an unruly smile and asked confidently.
"No, I don't like drinking." Ju Shichu shook his head and directly rejected the man who came to him for no apparent reason.
Unexpectedly, the smile on the man's face disappeared immediately. He looked at Ju Shichu with some disdain and said, "You are so brave that you don't even give me face. Do you think you can rest easy after climbing up to Yancheng?"
Ju Shichu felt disgusted when she heard these arrogant and self-righteous words. She turned cold and said, "Who are you? Why should I give you face? Not drinking with you is courageous. Do you think you are the emperor? Unfortunately, I am not your slave. If you want to show off, you have found the wrong person."
"You!" The greasy-haired man was so angry at her lack of respect that smoke came out of his head. "Stinky woman, don't be shameless. Yan Cheng has given me some face, but you are just a canary he found from who knows where, and you dare to yell at me? Believe it or not, I will make you disappear from this city!"
When Ju Shichu heard his childish and arrogant threat, he immediately laughed: "How can you drive me out of this city? You dare to make such a childish and ridiculous threat, aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others?"
"Okay, okay! I'll remember you, woman. What's your name?" The greasy-haired man glared at Ju Shichu with gritted teeth and asked, "I will definitely let you see my methods."
Obviously, his threat was very arrogant and it was very likely to come true, but Ju Shichu couldn't help laughing when she heard his second-year line. She couldn't stay calm and angry, so she replied with almost a smile on her face: "My name is Ju Shichu, you are welcome to deal with me anytime."
"Okay! I'll remember you. Ju Shichu, right? You will definitely regret it in the future, just wait and see." The greasy-haired man was furious and made harsh remarks.
"What regrets?" A magnetic and sexy male voice came from behind, and when Shi Chu looked over, it was Yan Cheng.
"Have you finished talking to those people?" Ju Shichu asked.
"That's it." Yan Cheng walked up to her side, looked at the greasy-haired man in front of him with a bad face, and said, "Mr. Gu, what regret did you just say to my female companion?"
The greasy-haired man, that is, Master Gu, sneered and said, "The canary you brought today has a very bad temper. I wanted to have a drink with her, but she refused to do me a favor and even provoked me. Do you think she is too bold?"
When Yan Cheng heard what he said, he frowned and retorted: "First of all, Miss Ju is not my canary, she is my friend; secondly, I don't think that not drinking with you is a provocation to you. She has the right to refuse you, and you don't need to be angry."
“Okay, it seems that you like this Canary very much. You are willing to offend me for her. Think about it carefully. If you want to protect her regardless of my face, don’t blame me for saying something inappropriate in front of grandpa…” Mr. Gu’s words were pointed and contained a threat.
But Yan Cheng didn't care about his threat at all, and said directly: "Mr. Gu, my cooperation with your Gu family is in black and white. If you change it at will, the only one who will suffer the most is your Gu family. I believe in Mr. Gu's rationality and will not let your feelings dominate the cooperation between the two parties."
Yan Cheng's implicit meaning was that your grandfather would not stop cooperating with my family just because you hate me. Although Gu Shao was a middle school student and arrogant, he also understood what Yan Cheng said, and became even angrier: "I am my grandfather's most beloved grandson, how could he not help me vent my anger! Don't try to fool me with these words! Also, I must drive you, the canary, out of this city. If you know what's good for you, you'd better send her away quickly. If you wait for me to take action, I don't know what the consequences will be."
When Yan Cheng heard his last two sentences, his face suddenly turned cold, and his breath almost froze. He looked at the man surnamed Gu with sharp eyes and said, "I advise you not to act rashly. She is mine. Bullying her is bullying me. Young Master Gu, think it over. Do you really want to be my enemy?"
Gu Shao choked, and his heart began to tremble when he thought of the rumors about Yan Cheng's cruelty. He just wanted to teach this woman a lesson, and did not really want to be his enemy. Teaching an insignificant woman a lesson was completely different from being an enemy of Yan Cheng himself. Although he was unreliable occasionally, he also understood the difference. Yan Cheng was a rival of his grandfather, but he did not have his grandfather's ability.
"Have you thought about it?" Yan Cheng looked at him indifferently.
Gu Shao got scared and shouted in a timid voice: "I'll spare her this time for your sake! You won't be so lucky next time..." After saying that, he turned around and left with barely maintaining his dignity.
Ju Shichu was a little dazed: "He just left like that?"
"Do you want him to stay?" Yan Cheng looked down at her.
"No, why do I feel that he is... too fickle? He just said he would kick me out of this city, but when you came, you subdued him without saying a few words. This is completely inconsistent with his previous arrogance and willfulness. He changed too quickly." Ju Shichu exclaimed.
"Because he is very sensible." Yan Cheng replied, "His principal's willfulness depends on the person he is with. His grandfather likes him because he knows the times and knows the limits."
