"Miss Cheng, I've heard a lot about you." A young man walked toward Gu Shengyin with a glass of red wine.
Gu Shengyin smiled at him, picked up the cup in his hand, and took a sip.
After sending the man away, Cheng Xizhi looked around and found an inconspicuous corner to sit down.
This banquet was to celebrate the collaboration between the Cheng Group and the Yuan Group on a big project. The Yuan Group and the Cheng Group were giants in Hua City's business world. Almost all the famous people in Hua City's business world came to this banquet.
As the only daughter of the Cheng family, Cheng Xizhi was naturally favored by countless people. Moreover, Cheng Zhensheng was famous for loving his daughter as much as his life.
For many young men with average social status, if they could marry Cheng Xizhi, it was equivalent to climbing up the Cheng Corporation's big tree.
Gu Shengyin was very annoyed by this kind of flattery. In the previous world, she gave her heart to Ji Yu. As a "person" who was created, Gu Shengyin's view of relationships was quite simple. Her heart was very small and could only accommodate one person.
At this moment, she was sitting in a hidden corner and coldly watching Cheng Yiru socialize with the guests like a fish in water.
As the adopted daughter of the Cheng Corporation, although Cheng Yiru's popularity was not as good as Cheng Xizhi's, she was still the existence that most people flattered.
Cheng Yiru enjoyed this feeling very much.
She remembered the last days of her previous life. Because she had contracted a serious disease, she could not receive guests. Without a source of income to support her living in a high-end neighborhood, she had to move to a dilapidated low-rent apartment.
Every day, there were all kinds of curses in various dialects outside the door. Children's cries, the sound of car horns downstairs, and all kinds of dirty and messy environment. It was simply a nightmare!
What about now? She was still the beautiful young lady of the Cheng family. Her previous life was like a nightmare. She swore that in this life, she would not let herself fall into that kind of situation again.
"Miss Cheng." A low voice interrupted Gu Shengyin's thoughts.
Gu Shengyin raised her head. It was a strange man. She frowned slightly. This man's aura was too aggressive and made people unconsciously nervous.
However, Gu Shengyin only frowned. She was the Empress in her previous life. What kind of people had she not seen? This man was not enough to make her lose her composure.
Yuan Xu was a little surprised. When he was young, he had trained with his uncle who was in the army for a period of time. His aura had been honed from real bloodshed. Ordinary people would not be able to withstand it. He did not expect that this delicate little girl in front of him would not be affected at all.
Yuan Xu raised his eyebrows. It seemed that this Miss Cheng was not as innocent and harmless as she seemed on the surface.
"Hello, I'm Yuan Xu." Yuan Xu extended his hand.
It turned out that he was Yuan Hang's brother, the young master of the Yuan Corporation. Gu Shengyin understood.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Yuan." Gu Shengyin reached out and shook Yuan Xu's hand.
So slippery. This was Yuan Xu's first thought.
The warm touch in his hand made his heart flutter, as if he was holding a warm jade.
No wonder the ancients said that jade was soft and fragrant. It turned out that such a woman really existed.
The two of them did not talk much. They only exchanged a few words occasionally and just sat there quietly. The atmosphere was not awkward at all. Compared to the liveliness in the hall, there was a sense of tranquility.
"I should go out and give my speech." Yuan Xu was a little reluctant to leave when he got up.
Gu Shengyin got up to send him off out of politeness. However, she did not expect that her overly long skirt would restrict her movements. She twisted her leg and fell diagonally to the ground.
"Be careful!" Gu Shengyin fell into a broad embrace. At the same time, a familiar lotus fragrance wafted into her nose.
