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

Chapter 4 I have long lost confidence in you and your company

In the bright night of the royal city,

Canglan Hotel stands there quietly like a shining pearl.

In front of the hotel's gate, luxury cars were flowing in like water. Their bodies were as smooth as mirrors and shining with dazzling light.

These cars are more than just a means of transportation.
It is also a symbol of identity and status, and each one demonstrates the extraordinary strength of the owner.

Canglan Hotel is one of the most high-end hotels in Wangcheng.

It integrates accommodation and banquets, with luxurious facilities and thoughtful services.

The roof is cleverly designed to accommodate helicopter landings.

Here, the price of an ordinary meal starts from four figures.
And those carefully prepared delicacies are very expensive. Without five figures, you can't walk out of this magnificent door.

Despite its high prices, Canglan Hotel still attracts countless celebrities and dignitaries to spend their time there.

tonight,

This place was even booked out for a grand business gathering.

More than 50% of the prominent figures in the upper society of the entire Dajing Empire gathered here to witness this grand event together.

As a two-tone Maybach slowly drove over, everyone's attention was drawn to it.

The car looked particularly dazzling under the lights.

The car door slowly opened, and a young woman with an extraordinary temperament walked out.

Wearing an elegant dress with a slim fit, she looks like an elegant princess walking out of a fairy tale.

Her dress was fitted but not tight, outlining her graceful figure perfectly.

Wearing high heels, she looks taller and more upright, and every step she takes is so elegant and calm.

Her long hair was casually scattered on both sides, flowing down like a black waterfall.

She was carrying a brand-name bag in her hand. As she walked out of the car, she waved to the reporters who were stopped on both sides of the red carpet by security personnel, with a faint smile on her face.

Then she walked into the hotel in high heels.

She is Chu He’s ex-wife Gu Shuling.

Tonight she will be the focus of this business gathering as usual.

During the day, after Gu Shuling and Chu He signed the divorce agreement, she took a deep breath of free air, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders.

She returned to her home and carefully selected a finely crafted and expensive dress to attend the banquet tonight.

Rich people often don't discuss business in the office, but rather finalize impressive contracts while drinking and chatting.

Gu Shuling's colleagues also attended the banquet, and their purpose was as clear as hers.

Fight for the right to supply materials for the multi-billion-dollar building invested by the real estate tycoon!

However, Gu Shuling did not take them seriously because she was well aware of her strength and influence in this field.

When she walked into the hotel building, she saw many celebrities from all walks of life gathered together.

Be prepared to handle all kinds of social events.

On the way here, Gu Shuling had seen on the Internet that the news of her divorce from Chu He had caused an uproar.

She knew that she and Chu He were very popular, and any action she took would attract the attention and discussion of countless people.

Tonight, many high society people will come to ask her about the divorce.
There might even be other wealthy men pursuing her.

When Gu Shuling actually walked into the banquet hall, she found something strange.

No one came up to her and socialized with her, and no other wealthy people showed obvious interest in her as she had imagined.

This made her feel a little confused and puzzled, and she didn't understand what was going on.

However, Gu Shuling is proud and arrogant. Even if no one approaches her, she will not take the initiative to flatter others and interact with them.

She believes in her own strength and charm.

… As night fell, the sky was dotted with stars, the banquet hall was brightly lit and filled with celebrities.

A middle-aged man in an expensive suit, real estate tycoon Mr. Yang, slowly walked to the stage.

One of his hands was elegantly placed in his trouser pocket, while the other held a glass of crystal clear champagne.
The wine sparkled with an alluring luster under the light.

The middle-aged man's eyes swept across every guest present and finally stopped on Gu Shuling.

A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

“Good evening, distinguished guests. I should be familiar to everyone present, so I will not introduce myself.

We are gathered here tonight to witness a historic moment.”

Mr. Yang's voice is deep and magnetic.

He took a sip of the champagne in his hand and continued, "I have a building project with a 10 billion investment, and I believe everyone here already knows about it.

This scale of investment is unprecedented in the years since Blue Star was mysteriously invaded.

Today, I have the honor to break this record myself."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was warm applause and cheers from the audience.

At this moment, Mr. Yang changed the subject and said, "As for the purchase of construction materials for this project, I decided to cooperate with Jinjing Group."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar at the scene.

The smile on Gu Shuling's face froze instantly. She felt as if her heart was hit by a heavy hammer, and a dull pain spread throughout her body.

She subconsciously clenched her fists, her nails digging deeply into her palms, but she didn't feel any pain at all.

what's the situation?
A fat man with a big belly walked up to the stage and shook hands with Mr. Yang enthusiastically.

His face was full of smiles and his eyes were shining with pride.

As Gu Shuling watched this scene, her sense of loss grew stronger.

She thought that with her strength and business acumen, this 10 billion project belonged to her.

However, reality gave her a cruel blow.

Finally, the celebrity party that lasted for several hours ended.

Gu Shuling took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

She walked quickly forward and caught up with Mr. Yang who was about to leave.

"Boss Yang, please stay."

Gu Shuling said bluntly: "I have always been your partner, why did you choose Jinjing Group this time?"

Mr. Yang stopped and turned to look at her.

The previous enthusiasm and politeness were no longer in his eyes, instead there was a sense of indifference and alienation.

"Mr. Gu, there are no permanent enemies or permanent friends in the business world."

Mr. Yang said calmly, "I just think that we should give other colleagues some opportunities. Besides, you are rich now, so you don't need a project like mine."

"Boss Yang, I have been working in this industry for so many years, there is no need for you to lie to me."

Gu Shuling was filled with anger and asked, "Please tell me the truth, is there anything I didn't do well enough?"

Mr. Yang was silent for a moment, then slowly said: “Okay, then I will tell you the truth.

In fact, I have long lost confidence in you and your company.

Your management style, decision-making ability, and even your personal qualities disappoint me.

So, I have decided not to cooperate with you anymore."

Gu Shuling was stunned. She felt like her world collapsed in an instant.

She couldn't accept this fact, nor could she understand why Yang was always so disappointed in her: "Why?"
