“I know this guy .. He's a rich kid who does a lot of things regardless of how it affects others, it's better you don't get involved with him.” Wu Hongwen bowed and advised Gu Xiqiao in a soft voice because even he did not want to directly start a conflict with Yin Shaoyuan. He did not know too much about the man, but the elders had reminded him many times that the only person he could not get into trouble in N City was him!
Wu Hongwen never expected Gu Xiqiao to get involved with him from everyone, and worried about what ulterior motives Yin Shaoyuan had.
Yin Shaoyuan was no ordinary person, so he naturally heard all of Wu Hongwen's words. Raising an eyebrow, he spoke, “I haven't been in N City for years, and you guys started spreading all the bad rumors about me?”
“That's not what I said. Is there a reason why you are looking for my classmates? ” Wu Hongwen moved and stood protective in front of Gu Xiqiao, and at that moment he looked like the protagonist in a romance novel.
“What, do I need a reason to meet him?” Yin Shaoyuan replied, mocking as he did.
Wu Hongwen opened his mouth but did not know what to say.
Gu Xiqiao finished his milk tea and threw an empty plastic cup into the trash before seeing Yin Shaoyuan. “What do you need?”
Yin Shaoyuan turned around and opened the passenger seat door, seeing Gu Xiqiao finally respond to him. “Finally don't treat me like air? I'm only here on the orders of your Young Master Jiang, are you going to stand up and let everyone gawk at you, or are you going to come with me? “
Since it was Jiang Shuxuan, he did not have any more reservations and got into the car.
This was a way away from where Jiang Shuxuan would always be waiting for him, and since it was long after school ended, so not many students passed by.
Wu Hongwen frowned as he watched Gu Xiqiao climb into the car, and looked at Xiao Yun. “Are you going to let him just like that? He is not a good person.. ”.
“It's okay.” Xiao Yun recalled Yin Shaoyuan's attitude the last time he saw her with Young Master Jiang in question, so he wasn't too worried.
“You believe in the man he mentioned so much?” Wu Hongwen's brows were still furrowed as he drank his milk tea that he had never had before, before he met Gu Xiqiao.
Xiao Yun finished his milk tea and threw it into a nearby trash can, looking at the white car that was slowly stopping on the pavement in front of him. “I've seen them in malls before, and she treats him like a treasure.”
The two used to be picked up directly at the school gate, but ever since they took a walk after school with Gu Xiqiao, they had always asked the driver to pick them up near the crossroads.
The white car sped away, leaving Wu Hongwen pondering what Xiao Yun said.
The red race car stopped at a private club, and Yin Shaoyuan got down from the car and threw the car keys to the doorman before bringing Gu Xiqiao inside, telling him where he did it.
He opened the door and let Gu Xiqiao enter first, and there was a gentle and graceful woman inside whose gaze was up and down Gu Xiqiao as they entered, before smiling. “I heard that Young Master Yin got a new boyfriend, but I did not expect that her taste would change completely into an underage girl.”
This look of his made Gu Xiqiao extremely uncomfortable, and he slightly furrowed his brows.
Yin Shaoyuan stopped smiling and looked at the woman seriously. “Miss Xia, just because you're free to say whatever you want, doesn't always mean you should, you know. I treated him as a sibling I never had. “
This was the first time he had seen Yin Shaoyuan so seriously, and Xia Zilan's expression froze on his face. Even though she had only known him loosely before this, she had never expected him to speak like this with her because she had always been given special treatment because of her beautiful face. Now that she was treated so coldly, she could not keep her calm and gentle face well. Is Young Master Yin serious?
The girl's features were delicate and beautiful, and her knee-length gown further strengthened her pure aura, but what Xia Zilan focused on was how her face looked familiar…
Before Xia Zilan could react, Yin Shaoyuan pushed him aside and led Gu Xiqiao in, not giving him any manners.
At this moment, Xia Zilan remembered who it was and froze near the door. He had seen Gu Xiqiao's photo before, and back then he had never told the bastard princess. It was only when the event happened that she finally started to notice this girl, and realized how much she had changed in just a month.
Not only did he change his gloomy and timid attitude, he even caused all the trouble for the Gu family and gained the good graces of Yin Shaoyuan at the same time?
Xia Zilan walked to the toilet while immersed in her thoughts.
There were several billiard tables set up in the room, and a group of young people were playing while several others were sitting and chatting in the rest area. Yin Shaoyuan glanced at everyone and brought Gu Xiqiao to the resting place.
The membership fee of this private club starts from about two million yuan, and the people gathered here are mostly from families involved in finance. The club is connected to many similar clubs across the country and is quite famous for having prestigious members.
Jiang Shuxuan sat in the middle of the sofa, and while some were sitting nearby, no one dared to sit beside him.
Seeing Yin Shaoyuan and Gu Xiqiao coming, he got up and took over Gu Xiqiao's bag. He had told Yin Shaoyuan to bring him back to the mansion first, but this unreliable man brought him here directly.
Yin Shaoyuan shrugged as he met Jiang Shuxuan's cursing gaze. “I accidentally brought her here, Madam Zhang returned to her home today so she won't eat anything if she returns.”.
Jiang Shuxuan did not linger on the topic anymore and would tell him to order food before he thought for a moment and handed it to Gu Xiqiao. “What do you want to eat? Should I take you out later? ”
“No need, there is everything you want to eat here!” Yin Shaoyuan came out and ordered food before Jiang Shuxuan could take the opportunity to leave — He would not allow the young master who was painstakingly convinced to come to this club.
Gu Xiqiao kept glancing at the people sitting opposite him, so he took out a painting album from his bag and focused on it.
The spectators were quite surprised because Jiang Shuxuan did not tell Gu Xiqiao to retreat even though he was talking about business with others, and because many of them came from wealthy families in N City as well, they recognized Gu Xiqiao. One of them even nearly spilled their wine cup in surprise, but then took a sip as if nothing had happened, hiding their astonished gazes.
After a while, some of the people playing billiards came and glanced at the girl who was flipping through the painting album in surprise before asking the others in a whispering tone, but all they had was silence.
Gu Xiqiao eavesdropped on some of the conversations in the room as he flipped through the pages of the painting album, and realized that the main topic of the room was about the National Base to be built in N City. He only heard about this matter when Gu Zuhui mentioned it in passing, and back then the Yin family was fully responsible for it. It was at that time that the Yin family planned to move the political center to Jing Capital.
After that, the National Base turned into the most important research facility in the country, and the Yin Family became the supreme authority on national defense matters.
In other words, if there were a family in N City that could take advantage of this lucrative cake, their family would be connected to the country itself, and in his past life, he said, the Gu family could not do this even if they poured all their resources and connections into it.
He glanced towards Jiang Shuxuan, looking at his neatly shaved chin and sculpted jaw, and from his appearance, he was the one in charge of the project as a whole.
No wonder the Yin family could become so influential in his past life.
