The CEO's Favorite Wife
Chapter 33 The Stolen Halo
At the reception, people came and went under the gorgeous crystal lamps, all of them dressed luxuriously, holding wine glasses, or exchanging greetings or greetings.
Some people also took this opportunity to look for someone they wanted to cooperate with at the reception, and went up to strike up a few words.
There are also some people who have been paying attention to the female guests who came to the reception today. Seeing their glamorous attire, they can't help but take a few more glances, which is instantly pleasing to the eye.
The people here are either rich or noble, and everyone who comes to such a reception wants to leave a deep impression on the people present.
It will be of great help to my future official career.
"Hey? Why hasn't President Gu come yet?"
Gu Ci is the guest with the highest status today, so the organizer is naturally very concerned.
"You said, will Mr. Gu bring the rumored female companion this time?"
"I don't think so. A person with Mr. Gu's status is the one who lacks the most female companions. How could he bring the same one?"
Before the people arrived, discussions were already going on in the banquet hall, and the two of them had become the focus of the audience before they knew it.
At this time, Shen Ruyan, who was holding a glass of red wine and tasting it, suddenly heard Gu Ci's name, and a somewhat ambiguous smile flashed in his eyes.
Just at this moment, the flashing lights at the gate kept clicking and clicking, and the people in the banquet hall subconsciously looked over. The man's powerful aura made it impossible for everyone to ignore him.
In his arms was a white and slender hand. She had a slight smile on her calm face, and the corners of her raised eyes seemed to be mesmerizing.
How many people just take one look like this, and they can't move their eyes away.
The two became the focus of the audience as if they had their own spotlights. They walked in slowly through the gate. It can only be said that all men want such a female companion, and all women are jealous of such a woman.
"Oh, Mr. Gu is here, some people are welcome from a distance, some people are welcome from a distance..."
As soon as the two came over, many people came forward to say hello. They all had flattering smiles on their faces, as if they were carved out of the same mold.
It was the first time for Shen Qingyan to participate in such a large-scale business reception after returning to China, and she was still somewhat amazed when she saw the scene in front of her.
"Mr. Gu, your female companion is really gorgeous today."
Gu Ci's face just hooked the corners of his lips, "Thank you."
At the same time, Gu Ci looked at Shen Qingyan who was beside him, "This is Mr. Li, the president of CM Entertainment." He took advantage of the introduction, and Shen Qingyan nodded and smiled, "Oh, I only heard his name. Seeing Mr. Li himself, CM's movie kings and queens all deserve their names."
After Shen Qingyan finished speaking, she raised her wine glass towards Mr. Li. This compliment praised Mr. Li and all the artists in the company, and he was flattered.
I thought that Shen Qingyan's amazing appearance was probably just a vase, but as soon as she said it, President Li did take a few extra glances.
There is no flattery in the words, but it is very comfortable to boast.
"Thank you, Ms. Shen, for your compliment." Mr. Li clinked wine glasses with her, "If there is a chance, I hope to cooperate with Mr. Gu."
Immediately afterwards, watching Mr. Li leave with a smile, many people came forward to greet him. Everyone in the Gu's consortium wanted to curry favor.
After getting to know a lot of people, Shen Qingyan's feet were actually a little sore.
Gu Ci had already noticed that her feet were uncomfortable, so he leaned close to her ear and asked, "Do you need to take a rest?"
"No need." Shen Qingyan still chose to persevere, it would be good to know one more person here.
Seeing the two people being so intimate, someone stepped forward to make fun of them, "Congratulations to Ms. Gu for being with me, I wonder when I can have a glass of your wedding wine?"
Although this sentence was a joke on the surface, it was actually spying on the relationship between Gu Ci and Shen Qingyan.
If the two of them were not as rumored by the outside world, they would definitely deny it.
Gu Ci glanced at Shen Qingyan, her face was a little embarrassed, so she said: "When I catch up with the beautiful woman, you will definitely be indispensable to the wedding."
With one sentence, Gu Ci put Shen Qingyan in the active position again, and by the way, he also clarified the current relationship between himself and Shen Qingyan, which made everyone envious.
Everyone thought that Shen Qingyan posted it upside down, but who would have thought that Mr. Gu was chasing after him, and he hadn't got it yet.
Shen Qingyan also felt a little bit surprised by Gu Ci's answer.
I can't help but feel a little moved in my heart.
Gu Ci is outside, but he still defends her like this.
On the other side, the interaction between the two people has been falling into a pair of eyes.
Shen Ruyan's hand holding the wine glass tightened, and one arm held Fu Bo's.
Today's her is almost ready to appear in front of her eyes, her evening dress only covers a small part, and she has attracted the attention of many men at the banquet.
Everyone went forward to say hello to Fu Bo, but in reality they kept looking at Shen Ruyan.
How could Fu Bo not notice it.
Long before he came, he saw what Shen Ruyan was wearing and tried to stop him, but she prevaricated in a few words.
He also asked whether Fu Bo had no confidence in his own charm, and was worried that she would be seduced by others.
As a man, Fu Bo naturally couldn't tolerate his own woman's questioning of him, so he didn't stop him.
So now at the banquet scene, the regretful face turned green.
I feel like I have a whole Bell Prairie on my head.
His face was stinky, Shen Ruyan didn't seem to notice it.
Because at this moment, Shen Ruyan's eyes were fixed on the direction of Shen Qingyan and Gu Ci.
The two of them acted so intimately that she was about to burst into flames with jealousy, yet she kept smiling.
"Fu Bo, I'll go up and say hello to my sister." Shen Ruyan didn't intend to take Fu Bo with her, after all, her goal was Gu Ci, and Fu Bo didn't pull away because a friend was talking to him.
"Young Master Gu, you're here too." Shen Ruyan went up to say hello, but only Gu Ci was greeted. It was so obvious that everyone knew what she wanted to do.
Shen Qingyan stood aside without saying a word, but Gu Ci ignored Shen Ruyan, she looked at Shen Qingyan only in desperation.
"Sister, you are so beautifully dressed today, I almost didn't recognize it." Shen Ruyan smiled, and her tone was sour, which always gave people an uncomfortable feeling.
At the same time, many eyes were cast on Shen Ruyan. Seeing her standing with Gu Ci and Shen Qingyan, they subconsciously thought that they knew each other.
Some people also recognized Shen Qingyan as Shen Ruyan's sister, and they would naturally think of this relationship.
"Sorry, we don't seem to be that familiar." However, what Shen Qingyan said made Shen Ruyan stunned in embarrassment, and many people around heard her words.
Shen Ruyan's expression was almost uncontrollable.
Yet when she realized that there were so many pairs of eyes on her, she remained calm.
"Gu Ci, let's go." Shen Qingyan took Gu Ci's hand and left directly, leaving Shen Ruyan with an indifferent back.
During the whole process, Gu Ci didn't respond to Shen Ruyan's words, which made Shen Qingyan quite satisfied.
Shen Ruyan on the spot, her nails almost digging into her flesh, she never thought that this woman would be so shameless, her eyes flickered with a stern look.
At today's reception, many people also took this opportunity to discuss business, and Gu Ci was naturally included.
"Accompany me to discuss business?" Gu Ci asked Shen Qingyan's opinion.
"No need, I'll stay here for a while." Shen Qingyan pointed to the sofa next to her.
Gu Ci realized that her feet were uncomfortable, so he nodded in agreement.
He explained a few more worried words, then turned and left.
Shen Qingyan had just sat on the sofa when many people came up to strike up a conversation.
"Miss Shen, if you don't mind, let's have a dance together."
In front of him was a man in his thirties who exuded a gentleman, but Shen Qingyan shook her head and refused apologetically.
"Sorry, Mr. Wang, my feet are not very comfortable."
"That's a pity." Mr. Wang smiled, drank a glass of wine with her and left.
The quality of the people who come here is relatively high, and there is no such thing as a stalker. Shen Qingyan is quite pleased with this point.
However, Mr. Wang just left, and then many people came.
This time Shen Qingyan chatted with them generously, if they were invited to dance, she would use her foot pain as the reason for her refusal.
After some discussion, everyone felt that Shen Qingyan's conversation was very elegant, and it was absolutely impossible to be a vase. It seemed that not only her appearance was online, but her IQ was also very online.
On the other hand, Shen Ruyan on the other side, except for some men who looked at her exposed parts, there were basically not many people who came forward to say hello.
Even if there is an individual, it is for her attire.
She happened to see a group of people in front of Shen Qingyan, both men and women, and they were talking gracefully. For a moment, Shen Ruyan felt that that was the real upper class.
She was so jealous that glass after glass of wine poured down her throat.
If it weren't for this Shen Qingyan, how could Shen Ruyan's limelight be snatched away today?
The more she thought about it, the jealousy overwhelmed her reason.
Holding a glass of wine, Shen Ruyan slowly walked towards Shen Qingyan.
On the other side, Jiang Chusheng had actually been paying attention to Shen Qingyan's direction all the time, and Shen Ruyan's fierce eyes did not escape his eyes.
At first glance, Shen Ruyan harbored malicious intentions.
Jiang Chusheng approached slowly, planning to make preparations no matter what Shen Ruyan did.
When a waiter came over with a plate of wine, Shen Ruyan stretched out her feet directly, but the waiter didn't notice, and staggered forward, all the wine was poured towards Shen Qingyan.
Because Shen Qingyan's back was facing, she didn't notice these movements behind her.
However, before meeting Shen Qingyan, Jiang Chusheng had already arrived one step ahead, he had no time to think, and directly blocked behind Shen Qingyan himself.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The waiter was completely frightened, and he explained incoherently: "Someone tripped me just now." While speaking, he looked at Shen Ruyan.
She was the only one nearby, and there was no other suspect besides her.
"Jiang Chusheng, are you okay?" Shen Qingyan was also startled by this sudden scene.
She is busy looking after Jiang Chusheng now, and has not had time to settle accounts with Shen Ruyan.
Jiang Chusheng shook his head, and took off his coat, which was more than half wet with red wine, "I'm fine." Then his cold eyes looked at Shen Ruyan warningly.
Shen Ruyan's back stiffened for a moment, and she did not expect that Jiang Chusheng would be killed halfway.
Shen Qingyan first took out some paper towels to wipe him for him, and she knew very well in her heart that Shen Ruyan was targeting her, but Jiang Chusheng was involved, and she felt a little guilty.
Sure enough, as long as there is Shen Ruyan, there will be no peace.
"I... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I slipped on my foot just now, I really didn't mean it." Shen Ruyan can't do anything but apologize now, after all, she can't afford to offend Jiang Chusheng.
She looked very flustered, as if she was so innocent.
"I...Jiang Shao, this is really an accident." Shen Ruyan was also incoherent, but she was too guilty to look at Jiang Chusheng.
Now that the plan has failed, she can only hope for a safe and sound life.
Some people also took this opportunity to look for someone they wanted to cooperate with at the reception, and went up to strike up a few words.
There are also some people who have been paying attention to the female guests who came to the reception today. Seeing their glamorous attire, they can't help but take a few more glances, which is instantly pleasing to the eye.
