You said you could kill the evil spirits without me, why are you crying now?

Chapter 17 The next more brilliant, glorious, and perfect god of war
The night falls and the lanterns come on.

King City,

Five-star hotel, banquet hall.

A huge crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling, emitting a soft and warm light, illuminating the entire space like daytime.

There are valuable oil paintings hanging on the walls, and the carpet is soft and thick, making walking on it feel like walking on clouds.

In the banquet hall, many celebrities gathered, dressed in elegant clothes and full of smiles.

Gu Shuling stood in a corner of the banquet hall, tightly holding a glass of red wine in her hand, but the deep liquid was like her heart, without any ripples.

Beneath her delicate makeup, there is an indescribable sadness.

These days, Gu Shuling has accepted the cruel reality.

She once thought that she had built an unshakable business empire through her own wisdom and hard work.

But he never expected that all this was dependent on Chu He's influence.

Without Chu He, she found herself to be just a rootless duckweed, swaying in the wind, unable to control herself.

This realization was like a sharp knife, cutting the former pride and self-confidence into pieces.

She once made big names in the business world, but she never imagined that her achievements would be so fragile.

Gu Shuling endured the inner torment alone during the sleepless night, tears streaming down her face like broken strings.

However, that's not the worst.

Gu Shuling's company is facing an unprecedented crisis.

Dozens of important partners tacitly chose to end their partnerships.
Overnight, her business empire collapsed.

The breakdown of the capital chain put her into a desperate situation, and she had to face the tragic end of losing everything and her reputation.

The former glory and honor have disappeared like clouds, leaving only heavy debts and impending imprisonment.

Such a tragic defeat is rare in the entire business history of the Dajing Empire.

At this time, Gu Shuling's cousin Gu Mingwei was standing beside her. He was wearing a tailor-made suit, looking straight and handsome, and holding a mobile phone in his hand, reading the latest news.

"Did you see the news?"

Gu Mingwei asked softly, "Fortunately, we didn't go to Chu He to remarry, otherwise, this incident would have been a disaster for us."

Gu Shuling nodded gently and said tiredly: "Whether Chu He is good or bad has nothing to do with me, there is no need to put too much energy on this matter.

We have more important things to do next.

This time, I want to play my role as a vase and find a more solid thigh to support the company. "

Gu Mingwei smiled after hearing her words: "My silly sister, why do you say that? A vase has its own importance. Besides, do you know why I am sure you can hold on to that thigh?"

Gu Shuling shook her head, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes: "Why?"

She didn't even know who the thigh her cousin was talking about was.

Gu Mingwei's face was filled with a proud smile, and he slowly said: "I have a habit of collecting and analyzing various valuable data, especially those individuals with potential.

Therefore, I have specially trained a team who are good at conducting meticulous investigations in the dark to ensure that no clues are revealed.

When a particular person comes into my sight, I immediately activate the team, investigate, and make sure everything is under control.”

"I thought it was just a routine matter, but I unexpectedly discovered a piece of extremely valuable information."

Gu Mingwei's eyes sparkled: "Although this person is about the same age as Chu He, from what I know so far, his talent in some aspects is probably not inferior to Chu He, and he may even surpass him.

What is even more shocking is that this person has actually fought against evil spirits. Facing the pursuit of three king-level evil spirits, he was able to escape unscathed. This is something that ordinary people cannot do."

Gu Shuling listened attentively, and her heart was filled with ripples. She tried to imagine an image of a genius with unparalleled elegance and talent, but Gu Mingwei's next words surprised her even more.

"You actually know this person."

Gu Mingwei smiled faintly: "Do you remember your welcome party in college?
As a host, you have won the title of school belle with your elegant demeanor and outstanding talent, and are even hailed as one of the goddess seniors in the school forum.

At that time, a brave junior student plucked up the courage and gave you a bouquet of roses.

Maybe you have forgotten this junior, but you will definitely recognize him as long as you see his photo. "

Gu Shuling frowned slightly, and she tried hard to search for the vague figure in her memory.

Just then, Gu Mingwei took out a photo from his mobile phone album and handed it to her.

The boy in the photo has a slightly immature face, which touches people's hearts.

When Gu Shuling's eyes fell on the photo, memories came flooding back like a tide, and she immediately recalled the identity of this junior.

When he was in school, he was indeed a celebrity. Not only did he excel in academics, he was also the ideal type of all the girls in the school.

He had clearly expressed his admiration for her, which left a deep impression on her.

"It turned out to be him."

Gu Shuling whispered softly, with a hint of surprise in her eyes: "I remember this junior, he was the top student in his major when he was a freshman. After joining the student union, he won the position of student union president in his sophomore year with his outstanding ability and charm.

Not only that, various exams were a piece of cake for him, and he received many national scholarships.

At that time, everyone thought that his future was limitless, but surprisingly, he resolutely chose to drop out of school in his junior year and disappeared from the public eye since then. "

Just as Gu Shuling was immersed in her memories, a cry of exclamation suddenly sounded in the banquet hall, bringing her thoughts back to reality.

Looking up, I saw a young man in loose casual clothes walking slowly towards the entrance of the banquet hall.

He had a calm smile on his face.

"It's really him!" Gu Shuling's eyes lit up, with surprise and joy intertwined in her heart.

She didn't expect that this former junior would now appear in front of her in such a dazzling manner.

"Her Majesty the Queen has arrived!"

The young man's loud voice echoed in the banquet hall, attracting the attention of everyone present.

Then, a queen dressed in an elegant dress and with a noble temperament walked in.

Her appearance shocked everyone.
Her Majesty the Queen will be attending the banquet tonight.

"See Her Majesty the Queen!"

The guests put down their wine glasses and cutlery, bowed in unison and paid tribute to the Queen.

Her Majesty the Queen nodded slightly, her eyes swept through the crowd, and finally fixed on the young man.

At this moment, everyone understood one fact.

The reason why Her Majesty the Queen attended this banquet in person was entirely because of this young man.

His appearance made everyone believe the truth of those rumors.

I'm afraid this young man will be the pillar of the future Dajing Empire.
Perhaps he will be the next more brilliant, more glorious, and more perfect national god of war.

Gu Shuling looked at the young man in front of her, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

I once thought that my fate with this junior fellow student had ended long ago.

But now it seems that their destinies have intersected again.
