Chapter 138: CH 77.2

Time soon came to the banquet on the second night, which is an annual event: the peony charity dinner. The invited guests are all celebrities from the upper class.

Before the banquet time came, many guests had already arrived one after another. Various luxury cars and sports cars were parked outside the art gallery where the banquet was held.

At seven o’clock in the evening, a Maybach parked at the gate of the art museum, and two waiters immediately stepped forward to open the door.

A tall man got down from the back seat. The man had deep eyebrows, handsome facial features, and his slender body line was perfectly outlined under the fitted suit.

The waiter recognized the man’s identity immediately, and it would be difficult not to recognize him under normal circumstances because the man is so famous.

Although he publicly announced his resignation a few months ago, it is impossible for everyone to forget in such a short period of time.

The waiter originally thought that Qin Lu’s return home to inherit the family business might be just a joke, or that the so-called family business means having a little money, but he didn’t expect to see him on this occasion.

Just as the waiter was in a daze, Jiang Liucheng got out of the other car door.

Qin Lu waited for him to walk over and walked in with him.

Until their figures slowly disappeared, and the waiter finally reacted.

“Fuck, it turns out that Qin Lu’s family is a famous family. Those who can come to this peony charity dinner are all celebrities in the business world. Such people are not as simple as having a little money at home. Money doesn’t necessarily get an invitation.”

“Don’t you think the other one is a bit familiar as if you’ve seen him somewhere before.” Another person said.

“I wasn’t able to pay attention. I was shocked by Qin Lu’s identity. When I came back to my senses, I only saw their backs.”

“Where’s mother?” Jiang Liucheng asked Qin Lu when he saw that there were only the two of them.

Qin Lu said: “She didn’t come so soon, let us come first.”

The two entered the art gallery, and then they were led by the waiters of the venue to the banquet hall.

At this time, the banquet had already begun, and there were many glasses of wine inside already. Every guest who came to attend was dressed in bright clothes. In fact, even the small items on their bodies were worth hundreds of thousands already.

This is not just a charity dinner but also a scene where celebrities and ladies compare themselves with each other.

Zhou Beiwang also attended the charity dinner. He had received news early on that Chairman Qin would bring his illegitimate son to the dinner, so he told Qin Lu about it. Qin Lu said that he already knew, so he knew there should be a good show at the charity dinner tonight.

As soon as Qin Lu came in, he noticed it. Qin Lu’s tall figure just blocked his sight so that Zhou Beiwang didn’t notice Jiang Liucheng standing next to him.

When he got closer, he realized that there was another person beside Qin Lu. When the young man’s face came into his sight, Zhou Beiwang froze in place.

It was Qin Lu who saw him and took Jiang Liucheng to walk in front of him first.

Seeing the two of them approaching, Zhou Beiwang finally came back to his senses, “Why do you…”

He was a little confused. How could Jiang Liucheng and Qin Lu come to such an occasion together?

It’s not that Jiang Liucheng is not qualified. It’s just his suspicion that they don’t seem to have a relationship to attend this kind of occasion together.

“What’s wrong with us?” Qin Lu asked calmly with a composed expression.

Zhou Beiwang frowned and said, “Why would you bring him to such an occasion?”

Qin Lu said, “Is there any problem with me bringing my boyfriend to the charity dinner?”

Zhou Beiwang was stunned, “What?”

Qin Lu took the trouble and said it again: “We are dating with the purpose to get married.”

Zhou Beiwang was bombarded by this news that he suddenly felt dizzy. It caused a sensation that he could only grit his teeth and said, “Let’s go to another place to talk.”

There is a small garden behind the banquet hall. Guests who don’t like too much excitement can choose to come to the small garden to breathe.

At this time, there was no one in the small garden, so it happened to be a good place to discuss the matter.

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhou Beiwang turned around and looked at the two of them. He had already gone through it in his mind just now, but he still couldn’t be confident: “Are you two together? When did you get together?”

“It has been almost four months already.” Qin Lu said.

Zhou Beiwang originally thought they were secretly hiding behind his back, but when he heard about the time, he seemed to have been kicked out at that time. However, he still had a feeling of anger in his heart. “Why are you doing this to me?”

Qin Lu asked calmly, “Why? Didn’t see your first love?”

Zhou Beiwang subconsciously wanted to refute, but then realized that Qin Lv was only talking about first love and nothing else. So he said with an unnatural expression: “Don’t deliberately change the subject. This matter has nothing to do with Gu Qing.”

Qin Lu snorted coldly: “Why doesn’t it matter? I still have to thank him. If you happened to be a little more careful, Liucheng and I might not have gone through a little more twists and turns to achieve success.”

Upon hearing this incident, Zhou Beiwang became even more worried and quickly explained to Jiang Liucheng: “Gu Qing and I are in the past. I really don’t know that he still has nostalgia for me.”

He always thought that Gu Qing was the kind of person who could afford to let go. Not to mention that it was Gu Qing who left him first when they broke up.

He never thought that after Gu Qing came back, he would think of getting back together with him.

Jiang Liucheng blinked and said, “Well, that’s all in the past.”

Zhou Beiwang always felt that the past tense he mentioned was referring to him and himself, which made his mood even worse.

Wanting to accuse Qin Lu is not justifiable enough.

To be honest, Qin Lu knew Jiang Liucheng earlier than him.

Seeing his gloomy expression, Qin Lu warned. “I advise you to let go of your little thoughts as soon as possible, and don’t let me know that you still miss my person.”

Zhou Beiwang opened his mouth. It doesn’t matter if they both have really dated Jiang Liucheng. In fact, the two of them can only be regarded as blind date partners who have met a few times, and they have no qualifications and positions. Thinking of this, it seems that he can only let go.

After a while, Zhou Beiwang said wordlessly, “You don’t care what other people think?”

Qin Lu said coldly, “You should not let a friend’s wife get bullied.”

Zhou Beiwang: “…Fuck.”

Just as they were chatting, there was a sound from the direction of the banquet hall.

After a while, Zhou Beiwang received a call from his friend, asking him where he had been and telling him that Chairman Qin was there.

Zhou Beiwang hung up the phone and said to Qin Lu: “Director Qin is here, and he is bringing a young man with him, who seems to be an illegitimate child. Do you want to go and see?”

Qin Lu sneered: “No, what’s there to see? “

Zhou Beiwang wasn’t surprised at all, “Okay, I guess you won’t go either, then I’ll go there first. I’ll call you when I have any news.”

Qin Lu responded lightly.

After Zhou Beiwang looked away, Jiang Liucheng saw Qin Lu’s expression suddenly darken, “Do you still mind?”

Qin Lu waved to a nearby waiter, took a glass of wine from the tray, and gave Jiang Liucheng another glass only to pass him a glass of juice.

“When I was young, I didn’t understand and would mind. I always wondered why my father was different from other people’s fathers. After I gradually became more sensible, I realized that he and my mother had no feelings for each other, so it was only natural.”

Jiang Liucheng himself did not have a father since he was a child. He doesn’t know what kind of feeling this is, so he can only comfort him: “I don’t want such a father.”

Qin Lu laughed softly: “You are so different even when comforting others.”

Jiang Liucheng: “This isn’t normal. Love is supposed to be mutual. If you love someone who doesn’t love you, only you will be hurt in the end. That is why people should be ruthless sometimes.”

Qin Lu stretched out a hand to hook his neck and pulled him in his arms. If he is going to be honest, Jiang Liucheng is actually luckier than him because Ms. Long loves him.
