Hidden Beauty in the Dark: The CEO's Secret Lover

Chapter 123 Tonight, I'm Tired 1
Jian Qingyin knew that they had misunderstood, so she didn't clarify, after all, she wanted to give Gu Shanglu face.She just raised her glass to the other party politely, smiled lightly, and was noncommittal.

But Gu Shanglu still noticed that when the organizer turned around, the smile on her face became a little colder.

"Don't mind, it's just entertainment." He said lightly.

Jian Qingyin nodded, but felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

For some reason, she always felt that Gu Shanglu seemed to be deliberately misleading others and making them misunderstand their relationship.But looking at his frank face, he felt like a villain.

Maybe, she really thought too much.In this kind of social occasion, how many truths can be heard.

A few more people came over with wine glasses to greet Gu Shanglu. It was nothing more than some business matters, and they chatted very speculatively with each other.This kind of reception is originally an occasion for businessmen to get to know each other and get to know each other well, so it really can't do without some means of communication.

That's why she admires Gu Shanglu very much. After coming to N City for just over a month, she seems to have become old friends and old acquaintances with the celebrities in N City. She can't accept this kind of communication method.

Although she had participated in such big occasions before, she was not stage-frightened, and her gestures and gestures were perfect, and she was too beautiful tonight, so she quickly became the focus of whispered discussions among the ladies present.But to be honest, she really doesn't like such occasions. Everyone wears fake masks and speaks beautiful scenes. Men compete for wealth and women compete for beauty. It's really hypocritical and boring to the extreme.

Perhaps it was because Gu Shanglu obscured her identity, so those people thought she was Gu Shanglu's girlfriend. From time to time, women dressed in jewels and celebrities came up to greet her, and she just joked a few politely. Without being enthusiastic, those women felt bored and left.

Jian Qingyin felt that this kind of reception was really boring.She turned her head and saw Gu Shanglu talking and laughing with a few wealthy businessmen. After thinking about it, she decided not to treat her stomach badly, so she went to get something to eat on her own.

She didn't notice that in the corner of the reception hall, there was a handsome man looking at her with a glass of red wine, a deep light flashed in his eyes.

On such occasions, those ladies and gentlemen basically don’t eat much, and they all feel that eating will affect their well-groomed appearance, so they spend most of the time talking about men, beauty care, and car and house tickets. The secretary also focused on socializing, and few came to pick up food, so the self-service dining area seemed very clean.

Just as Jian Qingyin took a piece of cheese blueberry with a clip, she heard the voice of two women talking behind a huge green tree not far away: "Hey, Miss Zhang, have you seen that one in the blue dress?" , the woman who came with Gu Shao, do you know who she is?"

Jian Qingyin stopped subconsciously.

The one called Miss Zhang said, "Who is it?"

The woman from earlier said, "Oh, you don't even know her? That's right, you just moved to N City not long ago, so naturally you haven't heard of her name. But three years ago, she was the hero of our N City figure……"

Ms. Zhang was obviously interested, "Really? What's going on, Ms. Li, please tell me quickly..."

Ms. Li then said, "She is called Jian Qingyin. Don't look at her serious appearance, noble and glamorous, but in her bones, she is actually a vixen and a broom star. Three years ago, she was the one who seduced her." Su Weian, the son of the Su family, wanted to fly on a branch to become a phoenix and marry into a wealthy family. Unexpectedly, Mr. Su was just playing for fun and didn't take her seriously at all, so she gave him ecstasy When the two eloped, there was a car accident, Mr. Su died, but she was unscathed, as if nothing had happened. Later, some eminent monks said that this woman was the reincarnation of a broom star, and Mr. Su was there to prevent disasters for her Otherwise, you said, two people were in a car accident together, why was Mr. Su killed on the spot, but she didn't even scratch the skin..."

"So that's how it is," Miss Zhang sighed, "Then what happened afterwards?"

Ms. Li said in a disdainful tone, "Later, this woman disappeared. Everyone felt that she had no face to stay in City N. Unexpectedly, she came back again. Moreover, she hooked up with the eldest son of the Gu family , Tell me, is this woman really capable?"

Miss Zhang lowered her voice, "Oh, if she is really the reincarnation of a bastard, wouldn't Young Master Gu be in danger? She won't become the next Mr. Su, right?"

Ms. Li said, "That's right. Gu Shao just came to N City not long ago, and he might be like you. He doesn't know anything, so he was confused by that vixen..."

"Oh," Miss Zhang said in a worried tone, "Then should we remind Young Master Gu?"

Miss Li agreed, "Well, I think it should be, I really can't bear to see him become the next Mr. Su."

Miss Zhang, "Then shall we go over and say hello to Young Master Gu?"

Miss Li, "Okay, okay."

Then, there was the sound of getting up and leaving the seat.

Jian Qingyin stood quietly on the spot, eating the cake in small bites, the smile on her lips became more and more cold.

A sigh-like voice suddenly sounded beside my ears, "It's just the stupid words of an ignorant woman, why should you take it to heart?"

Jian Qingyin looked sideways and saw Gu Shanglu looking at her with compassion in his eyes.

She was calm and calm, "Who said I took it to heart?"

Gu Shanglu sighed, and handed her a handkerchief, "Wipe it off, the makeup is all gone."

Jian Qingyin wiped it with her hand, only to realize that at some point, her face was already icy cold.

You obviously told yourself not to care about those gossips, and you have already been tempered into steel to be invulnerable to all poisons, but why, when you hear those heart-piercing hurtful words, you still can't help crying?And this embarrassment was actually seen by Gu Shanglu!

She took the handkerchief in embarrassment, and said thank you in a low voice, not daring to look up at him.

It was useless, and he saw him crying again.The handkerchief from last time has not been returned to him yet.

"Sorry, I'm going to the bathroom." She forced a smile and said.

Gu Shanglu nodded.

After going to the bathroom to touch up her makeup, she found that he had brought her a plate of food.

"Eat something, don't come out with me, I want you to go back hungry." He handed her the plate in his hand and said jokingly.

Jian Qingyin blushed, "Didn't you accept Miss Zhang and Miss Li's kind advice over there, why come to me when you have time?"

She intentionally emphasized the four words kindly.Gu Shanglu couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and said with a half-smile, "Why, are you jealous?"

Jian Qingyin took a bite of the cake stuck in her throat.

"Ahem." She was choked and coughed fiercely, looking extremely embarrassed.

Gu Shanglu hurriedly handed over a glass of water with an unpredictable expression.

Jian Qingyin drank the water and finally stopped coughing.She let out a long breath and said, "This joke is not funny at all."

Gu Shanglu looked at her deeply.

Jian Qingyin felt uncomfortable under his gaze, she lowered her head, pretending to pick something to eat, "Why, there are so many delicious things, why don't you eat some?"

But Gu Shanglu said leisurely behind her, "With your beauty, it is enough to eat."

In an instant, Jian Qingyin felt the hairs all over her body stand on end.

She sighed and turned around, "Mr. Gu, can you stop making fun of me as a small employee? You make me feel very embarrassed."

Gu Shanglu smiled, took the plate from the side, and followed her to get things.

"Qing Yin." When the two were sitting at the table eating, Gu Shanglu suddenly said, "I'm going on a business trip tomorrow, so I'll leave the company's affairs to you."

Jian Qingyin was startled, "Me? It's not suitable, is it?"

"What's inappropriate," Gu Shanglu said, "You are my secretary, and you can represent me in many cases. Besides, I also trust you."

"But," Jian Qingyin wanted to say something more, when someone came over with a wine glass, "Young Master Gu."

Gu Shanglu raised his head and put on a smiling face without a trace, "Mr. Chen."
