Gu Jingyan was already a sight to behold just by standing there.
When Gu Jingyan walked in, Lu Qinyu had already come out to welcome her. "Ah, I was wondering why you didn't come."
"Uncle Lu, they insisted on dragging me here. Look, I didn't even change my clothes and I came here to embarrass myself."
"Sigh, why change your clothes? Just treat it as your own home. You don't have to be so formal."
"It's still a banquet."
"Moreover, you look beautiful no matter what you wear. Ah, look, Elder Gu is so lucky to have such a beautiful daughter. I'm so jealous of her."
"Uncle Lu, isn't Chuxia beautiful? My mother is so jealous of you. Chuxia is so sensible and so capable. She's now the number one socialite in Beijing. I'm too inflexible. My mother always says that if she had someone as beautiful as Chuxia, she would definitely exchange me for her."
Who didn't like people praising their children? No matter how much they liked other people's children, they would still like their own children. Hence, when Lu Qinyu heard what she said, his eyes narrowed into a smile. "Then let's exchange next time. Really, our daughter always causes trouble. She can't even stop worrying about us. You should teach her a lesson next time."
"Yeah, if only we could neutralize each other, wouldn't it?"
"Ah, how could there be such a good thing?" Lu Qinyu said.
In the eyes of others, this kind and loving look was very harmonious. They couldn't help but sigh. These two top families had such a good relationship. It was really enviable.
However, everyone was saying that Lu Beichen's girlfriend was someone else.
This was surprising and inconceivable.
Fu Chenxi had heard the conversation between Gu Jingyan and Elder Lu clearly. Gu Jingyan was really good with words. Moreover, she looked natural and unrestrained. She didn't back down at all.
The people at the side were all saying, "The Gu family has such a good daughter. She's so likable."
"And she's so good with words. Her entrance and entrance are perfect."
"She has the demeanor of a big family."
Fu Chenxi had already left quietly. She stood at the side and watched. She didn't know what to feel.
Perhaps she shouldn't be thinking that way, but at this moment, she felt a little resentful. If she had such a good family background, she wouldn't have to go out and look at others' faces.
It was a pity that her family was so ordinary, not even slightly rich. How could she compare with so many top rich families here?
After exchanging greetings with everyone, Gu Jingyan followed them to the back and sat down.
They found a seat and sat down, but Fu Chenxi was nowhere to be seen. Gu Jingyan said, "Where are Chenxi and the others?"
Lu Beichen didn't see her either. He looked around and said, "She probably went to the bathroom."
Gu Jingyan looked at him and said, "You're your girlfriend. Why don't you watch her?"
Lu Beichen said, "She's an adult. How could she get lost for no reason?"
Gu Jingyan shook her head. She watched as Lu Beichen lowered his head to eat. He didn't look like the type who would care about his girlfriend.
Fortunately, she was not his girlfriend, otherwise, she would have been angered to death by him.
It had to be said that he was a good person to be friends with.
Gu Jingyan was opening a drink. Seeing that she couldn't open it, Lu Beichen took it from her and opened it.
Gu Jingyan said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Gu Jingyan looked at him and said, "Actually, you're quite a good person when you're not fighting."
"Of course. I've always been a good person, okay?"
"Hehe."
"Really, Gu Jingyan, you're always prejudiced against me. We've known each other since we were young. Even if I bully you, that's between us. Don't worry, if anyone dares to touch you, I won't let them off. Because we're friends, understand?"
Gu Jingyan laughed and looked at him as she said, "Alright, I know that if you weren't so flamboyant, domineering, and arrogant, you'd still be a good person."
"Yeah, if you weren't so barbaric and unreasonable, you'd still be a good person."
"You …"
"What? You talk about me first."
Gu Jingyan glared at him forcefully. However, everyone looked at each other and smiled.
Everyone was making a ruckus here. Not long after, they saw Fu Chenxi return from the other side.
But she didn't look well and seemed to be feeling unwell.
Gu Jingyan poked Lu Beichen and said, "Go and see what's wrong with Chenxi."
It was only then that Lu Beichen realized what was going on and hurried over.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, it's just that … I feel like I'm going home."
"Are you feeling unwell?"
"Yeah … a little."
"Let's go then. I'll send you home."
Fu Chenxi looked at him and didn't say anything. She just nodded.
The two arrived at the Fu family's house. Lu Beichen opened the car door for her. Fu Chenxi looked at him and said, "Beichen …"
"What's wrong?"
"I think …"
"What's wrong? Tell me."
"Do you like me?"
"Of course." Lu Beichen looked at Fu Chenxi and said, "Are you my girlfriend?"
Fu Chenxi shook her head and said, "Then, are you with me because you like me?"
"Of course."
"But I don't understand. Why do you like me?"
"…" Lu Beichen didn't think too much about it. He was indeed a hedonistic son of a rich family. Because of his family's wealth and power, he didn't think too much about the things he did. He just did as he pleased.
Fu Chenxi saw that he didn't say anything, so she bit her lip and got out of the car. She closed the car door and went inside, crying.
"Hey, Chenxi, Fu Chenxi, what are you doing?"
Fu Chenxi cried and said, "Go, go away. I don't want to see you."
"What's wrong? What did I do wrong that you don't want to see me?" Lu Beichen obviously didn't understand and felt that it was strange. He didn't say anything.
Fu Chenxi stood at the door and said, "Are you just playing with me? Are you with me because you think I'm fun?"
"Why would you think that?" Was he that kind of person? Definitely not. He had never thought of it that way and had never behaved that way. He felt that he had behaved quite well. Why would she feel that way? "Don't let your imagination run wild."
"It must be. You're so rich. You can play with anyone you want, but don't play with me, okay? Go away. I don't want to see you anymore. Don't disturb me anymore!"
Lu Beichen really didn't understand what was wrong with her. He listened to her go upstairs. He didn't know how much time had passed, but she didn't pick up his calls. He stood there and shouted, but no one responded.
He could only curse in his heart. He felt a little depressed and left just like that.
Fu Chenxi really didn't think that he liked her in any way.
Especially when she saw that so many people felt that she wasn't worthy of him, she felt even more worried.
Was he playing with her? Would he leave her? Had he never been serious with her? She didn't know and her imagination ran wild.
