Chapter 77: Even a tyrant boss must obey the law
On the way to the banquet, Gu Junxing told Nian Sui'an about the Yan family. Although he didn't think it would be useful, it didn't hurt to know.
"The Yan family is the richest family in Jinjiang City, and no one has been able to shake their position for so many years. The Yan Group has many industries, including hotels, real estate, medicine, entertainment, etc., but they started with real estate, and the focus is still on this."
Hearing this, Nian Sui'an asked curiously, "Then where do you rank in Jinjiang City?"
"Me? Not in the top ten, probably around 20." Gu Junxing told the truth, neither boasting nor being humble.
Nian Sui'an nodded. She felt that in a world like Jinjiang where tyrant bosses are everywhere, it was already very good to be ranked.
"Go on, talk about the Yan family."
"Today's banquet is to celebrate the birthday of Mr. Yan Zhensheng, the son of Mr. Yan. Although he is already 70 years old and has withdrawn from the company, in reality, if the Yan family has any important matters, they still need Mr. Yan's approval."
"The emperor." Nian Sui'an rested his chin and summed up at the right time.
Gu Junxing nodded, "That's right." Gu Junxing resisted the urge to ask Nian Sui'an to sit up straight and continued to talk about the Yan family.
"Mr. Yan has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son, Yan Heguang, is currently in charge of the real estate business of the group, and everyone thinks that Yan Heguang is the future heir of the Yan family. The second daughter, Yan Hexu, is studying medicine, so Mr. Yan wants her to work for the pharmaceutical company under the group, but she prefers to be a doctor and teach students. Now she is an associate professor at a medical university. Finally, the youngest son, Yan Heyu, does not have the same mother as his older brothers and sisters, and he is the elder. After having a son, Mr. Yan loves this little son the most. He doesn't do anything specifically, but now he is the general manager of the group headquarters."
Nian Sui'an almost fell asleep after listening for a long time. In fact, she didn't want to hear such serious things, so she asked Gu Junxing, "Is there any gossip about their family?"
This question really stumped him, mainly because Gu Junxing usually didn't pay much attention to entertainment news, and the limited knowledge he had heard from his friends.
"The eldest and second sons of the Yan family are fine, but the third son, Yan Heyu, has the most gossip." Gu Junxing recalled what he had heard from his friends before, "Before, Yan Heyu's girlfriend had a fever at night, and after being sent to the hospital, he insisted that the hospital call the head of the respiratory department. How could a public hospital let him make such a fuss? The hospital called the police on the spot. This incident had a great impact on the Yan Group. No matter how much Mr. Yan got used to him, he would have given him a good beating that time."
Nian Sui'an was overjoyed after hearing this. Calling a doctor in the middle of the night, isn't this a common plot in domineering boss stories? If the heroine gets a little scratched, the hero has to call his enemy doctor friend.
Or he would run to the hospital and grab the doctor by the collar, saying something like: If anything happens to her, you guys can't do it.
Nian Sui An used to want to complain when he saw such plots. Those male protagonists were all reading as overbearing bosses, writing as manic... every one of them was a medical trouble.
After laughing, Nian Sui An sighed, "We still have to obey the rules and laws!"
The place where the banquet was held looked like a manor. Nian Sui An got out of the car, took Gu Junxing's arm, and asked him softly, "How much does this house cost?"
In the past, when I went to the mall with my friends, I liked to guess the price of things. Now that consumption has been upgraded, I dare to guess the price of houses.
Nian Sui'an was a head shorter than Gu Junxing even when she put on high heels. He bent down slightly, leaned his head close to Nian Sui'an's ear, and answered her question softly: "This is the private residence of the Yan family, it is not for sale."
After entering the banquet hall, they had to greet the protagonist of today, Mr. Yan Zhensheng. Although Yan Zhensheng was already seventy years old, he was still energetic, with a ruddy face and sharp eyes.
Nian Sui'an originally thought that they were not particularly familiar with each other and that a few polite words would be enough. Unexpectedly, Gu Junxing's image of being a bachelor for many years was so deeply rooted in people's hearts that he finally brought a female companion this time, and even Mr. Yan couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
"I heard from Heguang that you got married before, but you didn't invite us to have a wedding drink. I didn't meet your wife until today."
Gu Junxing smiled slightly, "I was too busy with work at the time and didn't have time to hold a wedding."
Yan Zhensheng disagreed after hearing this, "A man's career is important, and family is also important! How can you save money on this wedding?"
Yan Heguang next to Yan Zhensheng also nodded in agreement, "Yes, Mr. Gu, no matter how busy you are, you can't let Mrs. Gu down."
Nian Sui'an was standing next to him with a dignified smile, as if the discussion had nothing to do with her.
After leaving Old Master Yan's place, I ran into Qiao Yan after just two steps. He also came alone.
"Boss Gu." Qiao Yan greeted Gu Junxing, and then said to Nian Sui'an, "Sui'an, Pei Pei is traveling and not at home. She should have told you, right?"
"Yes, she told me."
Because Qiao Yan also had to go to Old Master Yan's place, the three of them didn't talk much.
Because she just saw Qiao Yan was alone, Nian Sui'an asked casually, "Has Qiao Yan also been single?" She had only heard Qiao Pei Pei mention it before, that her brother didn't have a girlfriend now.
Gu Junxing glanced at her before answering, "I heard that he had a girlfriend with whom he had a very good relationship. Later, for some unknown reason, his girlfriend suddenly went abroad, and Qiao Yan has been single ever since."
"Going abroad is not like becoming a monk. Why do you have to break up? As a president, you can't afford a plane ticket." Nian Sui'an complained casually.
"You care so much about his business?"
Nian Sui'an was a little speechless about Gu Junxing's question. She didn't know how he knew that she cared about him. Wasn't this obviously gossiping?
"I care about everyone's business. Anyway, why are we here today? Just standing in the hall?" Nian Sui'an said that this kind of banquet was simply boring. It was not as good as the wedding she attended in the village before. At least there was a meal to eat.
Now here, it was said to be a birthday banquet, but she didn't see where the banquet was at all. There was food, and the dishes were exquisitely laid out, but no one went to take it. Everyone was talking in groups of three or four, holding champagne. Of course, Nian Sui'an was not greedy, and she didn't have to eat with everyone else, she just thought it was boring.
Gu Junxing looked down at the high heels on Nian Sui'an's feet, thinking that she was tired of standing.
"Let's go, I'll take you to rest for a while." After saying that, he took Nian Sui'an's hand, led her through the hall, went out of the side door, and walked to a small garden.
Then the two of them sat down on the chairs in the middle of the small garden together. There was a big shrub next to them, blocking their figures.
"Take a break before going back. No one will come here." Gu Junxing said as he took off his suit and put it on Nian Sui'an's shoulders.
Nian Sui'an didn't hesitate and put on the suit. As expected, he felt much warmer after putting on the coat.
"You're quite good at finding a place."
"You're right, standing in the hall is quite silly. In the past, I would occasionally find a place to hide." There was one more thing that Gu Junxing didn't say, which was: It's much more fun to sit here with two people than to sit here alone.
Neither of them spoke, but after a while, they heard rustling sounds coming from the side.
Then a female voice came.
"Mr. Xiaoyan, this is... inappropriate, right? Hmm..."
"What's inappropriate? Isn't it more exciting here?"
