Chapter 828 Rising to Power Through Looks
"You two are really good-looking, and these two outfits look very beautiful on you."
The store manager couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, then suggested, "Miss Chen has a fantastic figure and proportions, would you like to try on a couple more pieces?"
Gu Tingyun said calmly, "I won't try it on. I'll take the blue one."
"Okay, please wait a moment, sir." The shop manager nodded in response and immediately had someone pack the clothes up.
She carried the beautifully packaged box, escorted the two to the door, bowed deeply, and handed them the clothes. "These are your clothes. The cost has been charged to Young Master He's account. Please take care."
"We have money, we can buy it ourselves!" Helian Jiao said with great pride, raising her chin.
She wouldn't take other people's things for free.
The store manager still had a smile on his face: "Miss Chen, Young Master He said when he left that the money should be put on his account. We dare not accept your money. If Young Master He finds out, he will not let us off the hook."
With Young Master He having spoken, how could they dare to act on their own!
"Then let's leave it at that."
Gu Tingyun took the bag with one hand and took Guaibao's hand with the other to leave.
Neither he nor He Junlin cared about the money.
The store manager and a group of employees stood inside, bowed again at a 90-degree angle, and said in unison, "Please take care, and welcome back next time!"

Night fell.
The banquet hall of Gangcheng International Hotel was bustling with activity.
People dressed in formal attire stood among them, holding champagne and red wine, chatting happily.
Click!
The door opened, and He Junlin appeared, dressed in a pure black suit with the top three buttons undone, looking dashing and handsome.
Gu Tingyun, dressed in a black suit, stood at 1.93 meters tall, exuding an imposing presence. Standing next to He Junlin, he was not at all inferior.
Helian Jiao had a delicate and pretty face, and under the light, her fair skin seemed to glow.
The royal blue dress is a slightly voluminous and comfortable style, but it still shows off her curves.
Pure yet sexy.
The two were strikingly good-looking and were new faces who had come with He Junlin, so they attracted everyone's attention as soon as they entered the venue.
The men attending the banquet were all wealthy and powerful, and the women, besides socialites and heiresses, included some popular actresses who came as companions, hoping to hook up with a rich man or a young master.
Helian Jiao was fair-skinned and beautiful; under the lights, she practically glowed, making many of the women present envious and jealous.
But seeing that she had no jewelry on her body and had an innocent and naive look on her face, they immediately felt superior to her. They thought she was just a pretty face who got to where she was by virtue of her looks.
All that looks is a pretty face; once the sugar daddy's interest wears off, he'll definitely be dumped!
There was a familiar face in the crowd.
It was Miss Li who competed with the little princess for the jade carving at the jade exchange meeting.
She had wanted to get close to He Junlin for a long time. Although the Li family was very rich, they were far inferior to the powerful and influential He family in Hong Kong.
Miss Li was standing at a round table in the corner with a few of her girlfriends, drinking champagne. She was immediately annoyed to see He Lianjiao, a country bumpkin from the mainland, hooking up with He Junlin.
One of them looked towards the door and said with a hint of sourness, "Who is this woman? She actually came with Young Master He! She looks unfamiliar. Which family's young lady is she? How did she manage to seduce Young Master He?"
"Hey! Didn't you say you wanted to seduce Young Master He? How come another girl beat you to it!" another person teased Miss Li.
