Save my wife all over the world

==================================

"1000 million for the first time!"

The small and crowded room was filled with hot and dry atmosphere, and the crowd whispered in twos and threes, making an indistinct hum.

The fan at the top rotating at the maximum speed not only fails to cool down, but instead stirs the heat waves coming from the window more evenly.

The oily man, who was so hot that he took off his suit and tie, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead, cursing in a low voice, whether he was dissatisfied with the hot weather or the number shouted by the judge on the stage.

The man in sunglasses wearing a short-sleeved jacket leaned back lazily, dropped the number plate in his hand, and blew a gum bubble nonchalantly from his mouth.

"1000 million second time!"

The judge with the curly white wig raised his gavel aloft.

A bell rang throughout the hall, and everyone present glared at the back row.

A burly man in a suit and leather shoes stood up apologetically, took out a bulky mobile phone from his waist, went to the door to answer the phone, and glanced nervously at the judge on the stage from time to time, as if he was afraid that the gavel would fall.

Not knowing what was said on the other side, the face of the strong man who hung up the phone eased a lot, and the nervousness faded from his face.

"1000 million for the third time! Deal!"

With the final hammer down, the ending was decided, he breathed a long sigh of relief, pinned his big brother to his waist again, and walked out of the auction hall with his head held high.

"The auction of Yaozhong Technology Company is completed, and the winning bidder is No. 136."

The judge announced the result of the transaction with a blank face, and proceeded to the next auction agenda in an orderly manner.

"I don't know who it is, so stupid, 1000 million! Just bought such a broken company."

The social elder brother wearing a big gold chain raised his legs and taunted him with a sensible gesture.

"This much money, tsk, is enough to buy a luxury house in the center of the new district."

"Obviously they are all creditors. If there is a difference in the price and you don't make any money, you still want to spend this wronged money. Why bother?"

"Okay, we have money to share!"

"So many debts, so many people, how can we distribute them?"

Seeing someone making complaints, many onlookers joined in the discussion one after another. I don't know if they really think that this company is not worth the price, or they are jealous of someone who can spend such a large amount of money.

"But speaking of it, the Gu family fell like this?"

Someone asked a question, and the audience fell into silence.

"That's right, Gu Chao jumped off the building, dragged his wife along, and was said to have an enemy. From the roof of the Central Building, it fell directly in the middle of the Champs Elysees Avenue. A bus drove to the middle of the road, and the unfortunate passengers They were all terrified."

"Poor Ms. Gu... that kid from the Yang family is so ruthless!"

"Ah, going bankrupt these days is really a casual thing, everyone, take care, maybe we will be the next one."

As if peeking into the future fate from the fate of the Gu family, everyone sighed with emotion, and inevitably felt sad.

Sitting behind them, the woman wearing a high-definition beige trench coat and a sun hat with sunglasses silently put the No. 136 plate in her hand into a crocodile leather handbag, stood up, and walked towards the door of the auction hall.

The da da da high heels disturbed the crowd who were discussing the Gu family enthusiastically, and people couldn't help turning their eyes away, and then they were infinitely fascinated by the enchanting and graceful figure and the only flaming red lips that could be seen.

"Eh? Who is this woman? Have you never seen it before?"

"It's not like our old lady here, who opened up recently, maybe it's from inside?"

"Che - where?"

Walking out of the hall that smelled of smoke, sweat, and strong body odor, Ling Yan took a deep breath of the fresh air outside—even though it was still steaming, it was much better than inside.

-

Now is the turn of the century, and the situation is changing. With the wave of reform and the pace of opening up, new ideas and old traditions collide frequently, and countless blue oceans and opportunities are emerging in all walks of life and fields.

With the return of Hong Kong Island, inland capital flocks to this golden development area. Hong Kong capital, which is no longer satisfied with a small island, is gradually exploring the inland, looking for more development opportunities.

In addition, the futures, stock, and financial markets are also prosperous on the surface. It seems that the myth of getting rich overnight can happen to everyone, tempting the public to invest their life savings regardless of their own safety.

Some people have a bright eye, take advantage of the trend, get rich overnight, and realize a leap in life; there are also people who invest carelessly, lose all their money, and are heavily in debt.

Unfortunately, the Gu family is the latter.

Gu Zhong was born in a wealthy family in this life, and she spent the first 22 years of her life as a gifted princess of a wealthy family.

After graduating from the best primary school on the island, he was sent to country M. Last year, he received a master's degree from the Ivy League Business School. After returning to Hong Kong, he went straight to the family business and prepared for succession.

Emotionally, she has her childhood sweetheart and her fiancé, Yang Ruo, who is well-matched.

Different from other famous boys who are promiscuous and playful in the world, he cherishes his feathers, cleans himself, is gentle and considerate, and meticulous, which makes many wealthy ladies envy Gu Chong with envy.

The beginning of this life has been incredibly smooth.

If there are no accidents, Gu Zhong will take over Gu's family business, and then carry it forward. He and Yang Ruo are destined to marry each other. With a strong alliance, it is not impossible to become the richest man in Hong Kong Island one day.

However, the family was ruined and the accident happened.

The Gu family has been based on Hong Kong Island for a hundred years, and their foundation can be described as rich. Even if Gu Zhong's father is not expected to run a business in this life, it is more than enough to be a conservative person.

But money touches people's hearts, and people's hearts have always been dissatisfied.

If there is such an opportunity in front of you, let you gamble your entire family fortune, and the return will be thousands of times the wealth. After thinking that you have controlled all the risks and links, no one will not want to try it.

This is how Gu Chao fell into a trap that someone had deliberately laid out for a long time, and happened to catch up with a butterfly flapping its wings on the other side of the ocean. Under the financial tsunami sweeping the world, his century-old family fortune was wiped out overnight, and he was burdened with countless burdens. billions in debt.

Even when Hong Kong Island was the most prosperous before the financial crisis, the per capita income was only [-] yuan.

Billions of debts, after losing all their properties, where should they earn them?This is something that an ordinary person could not repay even if he had been a horse for hundreds of years.

Gu Chao's weak temperament formed by being pampered since he was a child was undoubtedly exposed after losing the cover of wealth.

He couldn't bear such a heavy debt, nor could he accept the fate of living in a rented house in the future, and he couldn't bear being pointed at, pitied and ridiculed by the inferior people he looked down on in the past.

So he chose a way that he thought was smart and decisive. He dragged his beloved wife, and the old friend who had been with him for many years but chose to dig a hole for him to betray him, from the tallest and most iconic building on Hong Kong Island. Jump down.

Even in death, he was under the spotlight.

The news of Gu Chao jumping off the building occupied the headlines of "Hong Kong Island Daily" for three days.

It's just that he forgot that he also has a daughter.

Maybe because Gu Zhong didn't grow up with him since he was a child, he lost a lot of fatherly love; maybe it's because Gu Zhong showed a talent far superior to his, which made the aging male lion give birth to a baby that was about to be knocked down by the cubs. The fear of seizing power.

In short, for Gu Zhong, except for money and resources, Gu Chao hardly fulfilled his father's responsibilities.

Before committing suicide, he couldn't even find a proper way out for Gu Zhong, so he bid farewell to the world selfishly, leaving all the mess of the Gu family to his only daughter.

Although it is a new era now, there is no such thing as father's debt repayment.

On the premise that Gu Zhong does not get any money from her parents, she is not legally obliged to repay the debt.

However, the creditors that Gu Chao provoked will not let her go easily, especially in Hong Kong Island, where there are a lot of fish and dragons and a wide range of street culture.

Gu Zhong's only way out is to make money to pay off her debts, and with her arrogance and the current situation, she is bound to do the same.

She also thought about asking for help from the sisters and friends she thought of in the past, but after the Gu family's downfall, all those so-called good friends avoided her in fear, and even the worse ones played tricks on her in the name of helping.

The lofty princess fell into the mortal world, and in just a few days, she saw all the warmth and coldness in the world, so she had to walk alone with difficulty.

It's just that the flowers raised in the greenhouse, no matter how talented they are, they can't beat the sinister human heart.

It has only been a year since he returned to China, and it is somewhat difficult for Gu Zhong to understand the thinking and methods of the local people.

In addition, I don't know whether it is Gu Chao's frivolous offended people or what the reason is, the several great opportunities that Gu Zhong could have taken advantage of the wind have been sabotaged by design and betrayed again and again, and she is bound to be put under the control of Manchuria. It is the muddy mortal world that cannot stand up.

After going back and forth several times, the debt was not paid off, but it got bigger and bigger.

On the night when Gu Zhong sold her last shelter and lived on the streets, she was dragged by the son of the man who jumped off the building by Gu Chao, and stabbed to death beside a garbage dump, only cockroaches and mice came to look for food Stayed with her until her body rotted and was not discovered.

From the wealthy Tianjiao to this point, this is an ending that no one expected, Ling Yan does not allow the same thing to happen again in this life.

A princess should always be a princess, and no one can take her crown off.

However, at the beginning of this life, Ling Yan was too far away from Gu Zhong, she was in the north of the inland, and Gu Zhong was on the isolated island in the south.

If it weren't for the leader's decision-making changes, it might be difficult to see each other across a natural moat for the rest of his life.

Even though Ling Yan is capable of all things, since ten years ago, she relied on predicting the trend of the times to plan in advance, took advantage of the opening bonus, accumulated a huge amount of wealth, and became the richest group of people, but the threshold has not yet been opened, and she also It cannot be inserted into the business war of the giants on Hong Kong Island.

Ling Yan hurried and hurried, and only had time to get in before the Gu family collapsed completely.

It's just that the ants are eating the pillars, the building is about to collapse, and there is no way to save it. No matter how much money is invested in it, it should be able to hear the sound.

It is better to dig out the completely rotten tree roots and plant a new sapling.

The auction just now is the bankruptcy liquidation of Gu's enterprise, the creditors have the priority of auction and give a certain discount.

And Yaozhong Technology, which has invested a lot of money, is the sapling that Ling Yan vowed to get.

The future era belongs to the era of the Internet and technology. Whoever can seize the commanding heights will grasp the wind, and taking off is the easiest thing.

Fortunately, none of the people who participated in the auction today could be rich enough to compete with her. Ling Yan won the company at a price far lower than expected.

Perhaps most people have not realized that the changes brought by the times are quietly invading their lives.

Gu Chao also failed to discover what kind of trump card this broken company he held in his hand.

-

Walking out of the court, Ling Yan raised her head to look at the dazzling sun at noon, but she could only see a haze of darkness through her sunglasses.

Just like most people look at the world, they are always separated by a layer of something. They have never had a real understanding of the world, nor can they grasp the context of the times. Naturally, they can only pass by opportunities in vain.

Putting away the emotions in his heart, Ling Yan was about to step towards the white car he parked not far away, but saw a figure not far away, then changed the direction of his steps, and walked towards that person Shi Shiran.

A woman in a long black trench coat—or should I say a girl—stands silently beside the court street, looking at the white building from a distance.

The face that has not faded from its innocence and has not experienced much wind and frost is full of heaviness, which is in perfect contrast with the black body all over, as if mourning for something.

Ling Yan knew that she was mourning the decline of a family, the end of an era, and the end of a life.

"Hello, Miss Gu."

She approached and greeted kindly and politely.

"Hello."

Gu Zhong frowned slightly, obviously not very happy to be interrupted in mourning.

However, good upbringing forced her to return a polite greeting, and then she turned her eyes to the court, making a gesture of asking for permission.

"you···"

"Care... take care."

Before Ling Yan was about to say something more, a panting call came from not far away.

Thanks to the lack of other entertainment activities in the past few days, and reading a lot of gossip tabloids of wealthy families, Ling Yan is now very familiar with this face—it is the scumbag who mercilessly stabbed a knife in the back and abandoned Gu Zhong, Yang Ruo.

The Yang family had to be included in the Gu family's downfall so quickly.

Perhaps the Patriarch of the Yang family had foreseen something was wrong early on, or was promised some benefits, or coveted the territory vacated after the collapse of the Gu family. The Yang family also betrayed the Gu family when the wind was not in the right direction.

Yang Ruo was even ordered to do such shameless things as stealing confidential information, and it was also because of this information that the subsequent layout was extremely smooth, allowing the Gu family to step on the mines step by step, accelerating the collapse of the Gu family .

"Master Yang, we don't know each other that well."

Seeing the brazen thief appearing in front of him, Gu Zhong took a deep breath to suppress his fluctuating emotions.

Anger still appeared on her originally indifferent face, and her fists were clenched by her side, as if she was forcibly restraining herself.

"Miss Gu..."

Xiao ran in front of the two of them, Yang Ruo smiled apologetically and friendlyly at Ling Yan, changed the address politely, and made an invitation.

"Are you free? Why don't we go to a nearby coffee shop?"

"Is there anything that cannot be said in broad daylight? Young Master Yang, you have always been daring."

Gu Zhong's words are full of sarcasm, and the frost that rejects people thousands of miles away.

Yang Ruo looked at Ling Yan again with pleading eyes, as if begging her to leave so that the two of them could have some space to spend alone.

If other people were here, they might avoid it automatically.

However, Ling Yan knew that Gu Zhong only wanted Yang Ruo to disappear as soon as possible, so a third party might be more in line with Gu Zhong's wishes.

"What's wrong with Young Master Yang, just tell Miss Gu, I'm not such a gossip person.

Besides, the affairs of the two families are already full of troubles and turmoil, so there is nothing to say.If you want to reconcile, I can also be a witness here, can't I? "

After Ling Yan finished speaking, she took a look at Gu Zhong and saw that she had no intention of rebutting, so she stood aside with peace of mind.

"···"

I don't know if Yang Ruo was sure that she would not talk nonsense, or if he really thought that what she said was reasonable, he didn't let her leave again, cleared his throat, and said something that opened Ling Yan's eyes.

"Heavy, I can't help it, my father forced me.

I really like you, and I seriously want to marry you. Otherwise, after so many years, would I protect myself like a jade for you?

can you forgive meWe can still be together..."

Yang Ruo made a pitiful appearance, so that people who didn't know would see him and think that he had to do something against his will because someone pointed a gun at his head.

And when, when a man defends himself like a jade, it turns out that he does it for someone to see, and it turns out to be an act of asking for credit?

Where did he get his self-confidence? After ruining the other party's family, he can still stay with him heartlessly regardless of past suspicions. Is it because he thinks the family business is too hot or his life is too long?

Regarding Yang Ruo's operation, Ling Yan was puzzled, and so was Gu Zhong.

"Young Master Yang, if I remember correctly, your young wife must be a well-connected person, right? I don't have the qualifications to climb up now."

Gu Zhong endured and endured, and he let out a sigh of relief before he asked another question.

"...We just need to be together."

Yang Ruo's eyes dodged a little, and he hesitated and whispered something.

"You mean, I'll be your lover?"

A charming and coquettish smile suddenly appeared on Gu Zhong's face.

"I just don't want to see you working too hard, those creditors..."

As if he had received some affirmation, Yang Ruo straightened up again, and started to speak in a tone that I am all for your own good.

"I can fuck you!"

I can't bear it anymore, I don't need to bear it anymore.Gu Zhong turned around and kicked in a roundabout way, directly hitting that dog-like handsome face, kicking Young Master Yang, who was still pretending to be handsome, gentle and infatuated, three meters away, making him land perfectly in a posture of a dog chewing shit.

Ling Yan couldn't help giving Gu Zhong full marks for the beautiful fighting moves, and applauded by the way.

There were several "clicks" not far away, and a burst of lights flashed.

If nothing else happens, the news of Gu Chong angrily kicking his ex-fiancé together with Yang Ruo's distressed appearance will appear in the gossip tabloids in the streets and alleys of Hong Kong Island tomorrow.

It is the rule of Hong Kong newspapers to seize every opportunity and film all the gossip about rich and famous people. As long as it is something they think is traffic, no matter how much money you pay, it will not be withdrawn.

"Master Yang, the brain is a good thing, do you want to look for it?"

There was a sincere and worried expression on his face, but there was no trace of irony in Ling Yan's words.

Yang Ruo also found out that someone was secretly taking pictures, and he also knew how unbearable his posture was today, and if he continued to entangle, he would definitely not be able to please him.

After glaring at the two of them fiercely, he got up dejectedly and drove away in a red Ferrari parked not far away.

Before leaving, he deliberately rushed towards the two of them, throwing off their car exhaust, all childish means to relieve their anger.

"Thank you."

The establishment of the subtle relationship between strangers is also inexplicable. Maybe this experience can barely be regarded as a side-by-side battle. Gu Zhong finally turned around and took a serious look at the mature woman in front of him who was releasing kindness.

"You're welcome."

Receiving the kind feedback, Ling Yan also smiled back.

"What did you want to say just now?"

After a moment of silence, Gu Zhong suddenly asked, and Ling Yan remembered that he was interrupted by the scumbag who still had something to say.

"I want to ask Miss Gu, do you need any help?"

Exhausting all her mind to express her greatest kindness, Ling Yan was afraid that Gu Zhong would regard her as someone with malicious intentions.

"Thanks, but I don't think so."

However, no surprise, Gu Zhong re-established a solid wall of doubt in his slightly relaxed and friendly eyes.

Also, a stranger who has never met before suddenly proposed to help himself who had just been burdened with billions of debts, which seemed unreasonable no matter how he thought about it.

Even the richest and most benevolent philanthropist in the world may not have the courage to help.

What's more, this person has just walked out of the court, and he is likely to be one of the creditors.

Either the person who came was not kind, or he had other plans.

Gu Zhong didn't think that now that she was penniless and poor, there was nothing worth plotting by the people in front of her. She could only suspect that this woman's motives were not pure.

"Don't think too much, it's just that Ms. Gu fits my fancy. This is my business card. If you need anything in the future, you can call me anytime."

Seeing the vigilance and hostility in Gu Zhong's eyes, Ling Yan sighed lightly, struggled to explain another sentence, but clicked to the end, then handed out a business card with a pure white background, and gave Gu Zhong the right to choose the trust hands.

"Okay, thank you."

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Zhong finally reached out his pale and sharp fingers to catch the business card and glanced at it.

"Yanjing Maolin Real Estate, Ling Yan? Are you from the inland?"

For the first time a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"Well, yes."

"You speak Hong Kong very well. I can hardly tell that you are a foreigner."

Gu Zhong gave a heartfelt admiration.

"I asked the teacher here to teach me when I was young."

"You seem to know that you will definitely come here?"

Gu Zhong said something jokingly, but it made Ling Yan's heart skip a beat.

—Because I will definitely come to you.

If she is not by Gu Zhong's side, how can she maintain a smooth life in this world?

"Maybe it's in the dark, it's God's will."

After being stunned for a moment, Ling Yan also joked back with a smile.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Ling."

-

After pretending to bid farewell to Gu Zhong, Ling Yan did not go far.

She found a coffee shop where she could see Gu Zhong and the court, and sat down on the second floor by the window, watched through the narrow but bright glass window, and waited quietly with Gu Zhong.

Gu Zhong just stood there, as if he was tireless.

From the daytime station to the sunset, until the sunset was low and the lights were on, the last batch of creditors who participated in the auction walked out of the court.

There is no need to mourn the past, and the end of the auction means that the Gu family's property has been divided up.

If the situation is good, her debt may be reduced a lot due to the auction premium, but the era of the Gu family will come to an end.

The industry that once brought glory to the Gu family, or dragged the Gu family to its demise, will soon be stripped of the Gu family's name and replaced with other well-known or unknown names.

If the people who bought them were rich, they might have to redecorate them and make some changes in personnel so that they would never show a trace of their past from beginning to end.

In the end, the Gu family's foundation may not even be able to preserve the rich history, only a cursory and vague record.

In the tide of the times, there are too many stories like this, and history will never remember the losers.

Gu Zhong took out something from his pocket to look at, then turned around and walked to the side of the street, reaching out to hail a taxi.

"Follow her."

Ling Yan took out her pager, edited a text message and sent it.

Soon, behind the red taxi that had just started, a black car unknowingly followed.

After finishing the last sip of black coffee in the coffee cup, Ling Yan took out her wallet, counted out enough money to pay for the tea and put it on the table, got up and left this small coffee shop.

She strolled along the narrow streets, which are not as wide as those in the mainland, and carefully looked at Hong Kong Island, which was the most prosperous at the end of the century.

As night fell, office workers or students who got a rest poured out of the reinforced concrete box that wrapped them.

Crowds of teenagers combed trendy hairstyles and wore jackets, sweaters and wide-leg trousers, playing with each other as they passed by, refreshing and neat, full of infinite vitality, which is synonymous with youth.

The girls holding hands are chatting softly. The pure floral skirt is the trend at this time. Standing on the street, it is as if you see flowers of different colors. good.

They chat about celebrity gossip in the tabloids, discuss the latest shows and movies, or walk into the nearest video store together to pick out a new album by a favorite singer.

The dazzling light signs along the street were turned on, flashing colorful lights, and the noisy sound passed from the street to the end of the alley.

The vitality of the city seems to be awakened until the night, and there is a lively atmosphere everywhere, ready for a sleepless carnival.

Hong Kong Island at the end of the century is leading all the trends of this era, from food, clothing, housing, transportation to culture and entertainment, it is thriving and flourishing, and eventually becomes the imprint and memory of an era.

Perhaps only cities can faithfully and conscientiously record the traces of time, and then carefully seal them on the brick walls.

—She went to the Metropolis.

The pager in his pocket vibrated twice, Ling Yan took it out and saw this concise and clear message.

Immediately, she stopped her wandering footsteps, whether feeling or admiring, and hurried to the white car that she couldn't get in in the afternoon, and rushed towards the location indicated by the message on the pager.

The Metropolitan Nightclub is across the most luxurious business district in Xiangjiang, and being able to enter this place is a symbol of either wealth or nobility.

Many high-profile and show-off ordinary rich children are proud of being able to go to the Metropolitan to see a show.

And the Bay Area where it is located is synonymous with the feasting and feasting of the upper class these days. The most expensive restaurants, the most expensive clothing, the most expensive wine, and the most popular stars all gather here.

To put it bluntly, this is a place specially prepared for wealthy nobles who love to enjoy themselves and think they are noble, so that they can be distinguished from the so-called common people, in order to demonstrate their superior power and wealth, and satisfy their arrogance .

Even when the Gu family was not bankrupt, Gu Zhong never liked to come to such places, even if her status was sufficient.

Now that she is likely to be turned away, she came instead, so there must be something extremely important.

Ling Yan got off the white car, handed the car keys and tip to the doorman who was waiting beside him, and asked him to park the car.

The waiter in a black tuxedo began to look at the car as soon as it appeared, looking at the brand price of the car, and then he started to look at Ling Yan's jewelry.

Everyone who works as a receptionist here has a pair of venomous eyes, who can judge the status of a person in an instant, so that they can accurately keep out the civilian reporter paparazzi that the rich and powerful do not want to see.

"Hello, miss."

After looking around, he politely and enthusiastically bowed to Ling Yan, making an invitation gesture to enter.Obviously, his judgment was that the woman in front of him had the qualifications to enter this place.

Gently chinning his head, Ling Yan maintained a haughty and indifferent expression, exuding an aura that made people feel awe-inspiring, and walked into the nightclub.

-

When receiving Yan Yu's invitation message, Gu Zhongben was ready to decline.

After all, after the Gu family went bankrupt, even if they were good friends before, they are no longer in the same class, and the communication between the two may cause unnecessary trouble.

It's just that Yan Yu's next message immediately moved Gu Zhong's heart - she said that she had a way to introduce to Gu Zhong, so as to accumulate capital for a comeback.

Now Gu Zhong doesn't have any property in his hands, only a little pocket money that Gu Chaolu calls her one after another.

This amount of money may be regarded as a huge sum of money in the eyes of ordinary working-class people, but if they want to pay off the huge debt, it can be said to be a drop in the bucket, and it will not do anything.

But this is Gu Zhong's only capital, which is better than starting from scratch.

If you can find a good time to invest with the help of your friends, it is not impossible to make a comeback.

With such a glimmer of hope in his arms, Gu Zhong accepted today's invitation.

When he arrived in the metropolis, Gu Zhong was still a bit apprehensive.

Because of the news of the bankruptcy of the Gu family, the city was full of turmoil. She thought that she would have to go through a lot of twists and turns if she wanted to enter this time, but unexpectedly, it went smoothly. It seems that Yan Yu had already greeted the waiter at the gate in advance.

It's just that the people who saw her along the way all looked at her with pity or gloating, which was really annoying.

It seems that seeing the former high-ranking people fall into the mortal world, even if it does not bring any benefits or growth to their ordinary lives, they can still get some inexplicable satisfaction from it, and use it to please themselves in the boring time after dinner.

Following the guidance of the waiter, he walked through the dark corridor and walked to the noisy booth on the dance floor, Gu Zhong squinted his eyes somewhat uncomfortably.

The whole hall is decorated with gold and silver as the keynote, and the current high-ranking dignitaries are particularly stubborn and persistent in facing the resplendent style.

It seems that if this is not the case, there is no way to highlight the status.

On the top of the stage hung huge light balls, either gold or silver or colorful, bursting out with shining light, illuminating the entire venue brightly and mixedly.

The dance floor is full of figures swaying intoxicated with the social disco music, some are clumsy, some are proficient, and it seems very lively for a while.

"Gu Zhong! Are you here?"

In the spacious booth facing the center of the stage, a woman with big wavy hair and heavy makeup raised the wine bottle in her hand and called out to Gu Zhong.

Surrounded by a few men, she clearly looked like a good-looking talent, but they still had a flattering look on their faces, scrambling to express themselves.

After all, after the downfall of the Gu family, the Yan family is one of the most wealthy families in existence. If they can climb up to Miss Yan's high branch, even if they want to marry, countless men are willing to follow suit.

Once successful, it is like taking a rocket from the halfway point of life to reach the end point directly, saving at least 100 years of struggle.

Facing this scene, Gu Zhong was not used to it. She forcibly suppressed the disgust in her heart, and forcibly put on a calm and calm posture on her face.

"What? Is Miss Gu still not used to it?"

Yan Yu stood up with a smile, maybe she had drunk too much wine, she looked a little shaky, and walked to Gu Zhong's side.

"Come, come, sit down."

She grabbed Gu Zhong and pulled him into the booth, and the surrounding Yingyan flowers and plants instantly gave way to a wide road.

If it was before, Gu Dazhong could choose to leave because she didn't like the scene, but now she has something to ask for, so she can only endure the discomfort and follow Yan Yu's actions.

"Ayu..."

After being pushed down in the booth, Gu Zhong pondered for a moment, chewed the words he was going to say on his lips several times, and then opened his mouth to call out.

"Stop! Ah Zhong, today, the most important thing is to have fun, and we will talk about other things later! You know, it is really not easy to invite you to this place..."

The moment she spoke, Yan Yu raised an index finger in front of her, interrupting her words.

"That's right, I won this game, come on, who bet just now?"

After she finished speaking, she was dimly drunk again, and turned her head to ask the crowd around her with a playful smile.

"I'm willing to bet and admit defeat! I'm willing to bet and admit defeat!"

"I didn't expect that Ms. Yan could really invite Ms. Gu, who was the most difficult to invite."

Sitting around the table, young masters and ladies from high-class families took out their wallets one after another, and threw the dazzling red banknotes in front of Yan Yu.

Hearing the discussions around, Gu Zhong suddenly realized that Yan Yu had made a bet on her.

A burst of anger rose from her chest. This kind of behavior is simply treating her as a doll that comes at any time, how disrespectful.

However, people have to bow their heads under the eaves.Today's Gu Zhong has no right to lose her temper with these young masters and ladies. All she can do is to preserve her last self-esteem.

"If you ask me to come and there's nothing to do, then I'll go first."

Suppressing the urge to beat someone in his heart, Gu Zhong stood up and said in a good voice, but the request was made with determination that cannot be ignored, and he did not appear humble and weak because of the reversal of status.

"This is not here, why go?"

Yan Yu grabbed Gu Zhong's wrist, looked at her coldly, all the drunken smiles on her face were restrained, only arrogance and disdain remained.

"Miss Gu, today is not the same as in the past. To be a human being, you still have to be able to bend and stretch. Learning to observe words and emotions is a basic skill."

As if being poured head-on by a basin of cold water, Gu Zhong felt a bone-chilling chill, and could not find the slightest bit of friendship on the face of a friend she considered to be a good friend.

The way Yan Yu looks at her now is no different from looking at a mouse, with a sense of complacency and joy in it.
