It was already 11 o'clock in the evening when Yuan Shenghe returned to Yunshan Villa. The lights on in the villa were as bright as day.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Ji Yu sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV, with his legs straight on the coffee table, covered with a blanket, and a cup in his hand, with steam rising from the cup.

Ji Yu had heard the sound of the car a long time ago and turned around immediately. Her fair face was illuminated by the light above and looked as smooth and elastic as a peeled egg. Her eyes were immediately filled with smiles when she saw him.

"You're back."

"Didn't I tell you that I would be back late? Why are you still watching TV in the living room?" Yuan Shenghe walked up to him.

Ji Yu said confidently: "Of course I'm waiting for you."

Yuan Shenghe was stunned for a moment, a hint of realization flashed across his face. This sentence brought back the dusty memories in his mind.

The white-haired old man is obviously too old to stay up late, but whenever he goes out, I have to stay in the living room and wait until he comes back.

When she sees him coming back, she will happily say "He He is back" and then go back to her room to rest.

Same living room, same words.

"What's wrong? Are you in a daze?" Ji Yu waved his hand in front of him.

Yuan Shenghe came back to his senses and said, "It's cold, you don't have to wait for me next time."

"Oh."

Yuan Shenghe knew from his reaction that he didn't listen to his words. He was just like his grandfather. No matter how many times he told him not to wait for him, his grandfather would agree with him but would still do the same next time.

After that, he never came home after 10 o'clock at night.

Ji Yu put down the cup and went to the kitchen to bring out the hangover soup. "The housekeeper is old and has gone to bed, but he cooked the hangover soup in advance. It's still hot now. You should drink it."

Yuan Shenghe took the hangover soup and drank it all, put the bowl on the coffee table, and then took his hand and went upstairs.

"Will it be boring for you to stay at home alone today?"

Ji Yu thought of the more than one million yuan he had received and said with a smile, "It's not boring at all. I think the capital is really a great place with outstanding people and beautiful scenery (stupid people with a lot of money)."

Yuan Shenghe saw that he looked very happy, which reminded him of what happened at the party tonight.

Mrs. Wang explained that the photo was sent to her by a sister, and her expression looked a little unnatural when she said this.

Yuan Shenghe actually saw through her lie at first sight, but he didn't expose her.

Just as he was about to let the matter go, a voice suddenly came from behind the two of them.

"Mrs. Wang also has a photo of Mr. Yuan's girlfriend? That's such a coincidence. I also have a photo of Mr. Yuan's girlfriend."

The person who was speaking was Mr. Zhao from Hengyuan. Mr. Zhao had a wife who loved gossip. Over time, he was also influenced by her and began to like gossip.

He seemed to have been waiting for this moment and joined their conversation with a happy look on his face.

"Mr. Yuan, I particularly like educated young people. Your partner is obviously very educated."

Yuan Shenghe glanced at Madam Wang, who seemed to want to leave, and asked calmly, "Where did Mr. Zhao get the photo?"

"My wife sent me the photo. She said she bought it from someone else. If Mr. Yuan wants to see it, of course he can."

Without waiting for Yuan Shenghe to ask, Mr. Zhao took out his mobile phone and took out the photos.

Mr. Zhao has a characteristic: he has a very loud voice, especially when he is excited, it is like thunder and his voice can be heard within a radius of dozens of meters.

The news that Yuan Sheng had a girlfriend had already spread. When people around heard Mr. Zhao say there were photos, they all came over.

Gossip is human nature. Even the most rational person can't help but prick up his ears when gossip is presented to you.

When Mr. Zhao took out the photo and showed it to Yuan Shenghe, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd.

"Hey, Mom, why is this photo exactly the same as the one you spent 100,000 yuan to buy?"

A young man who came to the cocktail party with his parents said it subconsciously after seeing the photo.

He didn't actually speak loudly, but it was so quiet around them that when he spoke, everyone heard it and looked towards each other.

Then, a young man was seen having his mouth covered by the noble lady next to him. After noticing everyone's gazes, the noble lady's embarrassed expression became as embarrassing as Mrs. Wang's, and she wished she could dig out a three-bedroom and one-living-room apartment on the floor with her toes.

The young man didn't know what was happening yet, so he broke free from his mother's hand and asked in confusion: "Mom, why are you covering my mouth? Your photos are the same."

A rich girl also said in confusion: "Why are everyone's photos the same? I shared them with other friends this afternoon, but everyone said they had seen this photo. Is there no front-facing photo?"

"Yes, yes, my mother also posted this photo in the family group today." Another girl echoed.

The young man hasn't figured it out yet, but the shrewd boss present has already figured out the connection.

A strange atmosphere of awkwardness quickly spread throughout the party.

Halfway through the cocktail party, some CEOs who had brought their wives with them finally left early.

That night, Ji Yu's name spread like a virus among the upper class in the capital.

Everyone says that Yuan Shenghe and his partner are a match made in heaven.

When Yuan Shenghe left the cocktail party, a shareholder of Longteng Group said something to him.

——Your boyfriend has such a good business sense that I won’t worry if you really transfer the shares of Longteng Group to him one day.
