Chapter 163: Chapter 164: Afraid that a bunch of loafers would covet
Translator: 549690339
These young masters of the four great families are high branches that all the starlets in the entertainment circle wish to cling to.
Before, Gu Qichen was the main target of their predator vision.
Xia Yangyang had never witnessed such a scene before.
The stars of the circle, be they aloof or ravishing, all vie for attention here, as if it were a real-life palace intrigue drama.
Gu Qichen lightly knocked on the door.
The people inside the private room finally noticed the two people at the door.
Xue Shaotang was the first to react, he pushed Bai Zhi who was still sitting on his lap and went forward, “Young Master Gu, I thought Liancheng couldn’t even invite you.”
In the blink of an eye, he saw Xia Yangyang standing behind Gu Qichen.
Xue Shaotang was stunned, “Who is this middle school student? Why did you bring a little sister with you?”
Gu Qichen put his arm around Xia Yangyang’s shoulders and casually said, “This is my wife, Xia Yangyang.”
Xue Shaotang was so surprised that his chin almost dropped on the floor, “This is your twenty-year-old wife…She looks underage, are you sure she isn’t a middle school student?”
Gu Qichen couldn’t be bothered with Xue Shaotang. He took Xia Yangyang’s hand and walked towards Mu Liancheng, the main character of today.
Because of their sudden visit, the whole private room went quiet in an instant.
All eyes fell on the girl standing next to Gu Qichen.
The girl was very neat and clean, her small face was make-up free but her skin was so good that it was like a peeled egg, with delicate facial features, a high ponytail revealing a shiny forehead, and casual attire. She really looked like a middle school student who hadn’t graduated yet, as Xue Shaotang had said.
So this was the lady of Gu Family, the leading one among the four affluent families in the south of the city.
Vastly different from their imaginings.
Gu Qichen went to Mu Liancheng and said, “Liancheng, I’m sorry, I’m late.”
Mu Liancheng smiled and said, “Your presence is an honor, it makes me happy.”
His eyes moved to Xia Yangyang and he said, “As expected, sister-in-law is charming. No wonder Young Master Gu hesitated to bring her out, worried about a group of scamps having designs.”
Xue Shaotang quickly added, “We are flamboyant scamps and you two are family men. But Liancheng, why didn’t you bring your adopted daughter to the birthday party today to let us have a look? Even Young Master Gu has brought his wife, this really is not generous on your part.”
Mu Liancheng said, “My one isn’t fit for decent society.”
Xue Shaotang laughed, “Oh really? Finally, you admit she belongs to your family. It seems the day of her meeting us isn’t far.”
Gu Qichen casually said, “Didn’t Liancheng just say? He is worried about you lascivious fellows getting any ideas.”
Their talk was filled with humor and laughter.
Xia Yangyang could see, their relationship was indeed very good.
Among the attendees one was Lin Zhiwei, the head of the Lin family, also known as Lin Yuanyuan’s brother. The one just called as Xue Shaotang was a childhood friend of Mu Liancheng, Xue’s family is a military family and although not one of the four great families, it was powerful and influential.
Presumably because she was Gu Qichen’s wife,
The women present intentionally tried to get on her good side, pulling her to the couch to play games.
After a while, she found it quite interesting and began to relax, talking and laughing with them.
