Chapter 773: She Actually Came Too

~7 min read 1,354 words

He should have guessed that Shen Ci definitely wouldn't be so "well-behaved," but he really didn't expect it to be such a big "surprise"!

Eight hundred and eighty-eight yuan?

This Shen Ci was constantly refreshing his perception when it came to being wealthy and imposing!

Seeing that the person in charge of registration was about to record Shen Ci's name and amount right after his own, Su Zheyuan hurriedly reminded: "Don't put her together with me; open a separate page for her!"

The gap in the gift amount was too large; he couldn't afford to lose face like that!

Shen Ci smiled helplessly: "I didn't do it on purpose to embarrass you; I'm doing this to show respect to Master Yu."

"Then you should have told me in advance!"

"Why? If I told you in advance, could you have packed a gift the same as mine?"

One sentence instantly extinguished Su Zheyuan. He curled his lips and only said: "Fine, you have money, you're the greatest. This way, maybe Master Yu will remember you!"

"Really?" Shen Ci was a bit excited because she believed in Master Yu from the bottom of her heart and was very curious: "Will he talk to me alone?"

"Heh, then you're really overthinking it." Su Zheyuan woke her up mercilessly: "Look at the kind of people who came today; how many can talk to Master Yu alone?"

"Let me tell you, that feng shui matter of yours last time was also because I used a lot of my influence. Usually, Master Yu wouldn't personally step out for such situations."

"He's old and shouldn't be tossed around."

Hearing this, Shen Ci said: "Then I still have to thank you properly?"

"Between us, there's no need for thanks. However, it's no secret that Master Yu loves money, so your gift amount will definitely catch his attention; he will surely remember you."

Shen Ci smiled. The master loves money; that's truly uninhibited.

Who doesn't love money?

She loved money the most; in this point, she and the master had similar hobbies.

The courtyard was extremely lively. The social circles were similar, and most people were familiar with each other. Many people would take advantage of such a situation to get closer to others and expand their connections.

Li Wanchang brought his wife to the banquet and ran into Qiu Chu, the chairman of the Qiu Group, and his daughter, Qiu Keying, unexpectedly.

Because of the relationship between Qiu Keying and Li Xiao, the relationship between the two families had also undergone subtle changes compared to before, at least appearing closer.

Especially Qiu Keying, who was very proactive and enthusiastic toward Li Wanchang and his wife.

"Uncle, Aunt, what a coincidence."

Qiu Keying was dressed very ladylike and beautifully today, the whole person shining. Li's wife was very satisfied with her son's girlfriend, especially the Qiu family's solid strength, so she had already recognized the other party as her future daughter-in-law in her heart.

"Keying, you're really beautiful today; the clothes are beautiful, the hairstyle is beautiful, and the jewelry is beautiful." Li's wife praised, her face full of happy smiles.

Qiu Keying touched the necklace on her neck and said happily: "Thank you for the praise, Aunt. You are also very beautiful today. This necklace was a gift from Li Xiao."

Qiu Chu looked at his daughter with a smile, then turned his eyes to Li Wanchang and said softly: "Keying has been talking about missing Li Xiao for the past few days and wants to go abroad to see him."

Upon hearing this, Li Wanchang hurriedly said: "Keying is a girl, don't go back and forth. As soon as Li Xiao has some free time, I'll have him come back to see Keying."

Li's wife also echoed on the side: "That's right. It's indeed hard for these two children to date in different countries, but this is only temporary. The parts that need effort and hardship should be borne by Li Xiao. He is a man; it's only right for him to cherish Keying."

The couple was rarely in such tacit agreement, both knowing they had to pave this road for their son.

"Uncle, Aunt, I am also willing to pay for Li Xiao. I don't feel it's hard. Dating is a matter for two people. If he is busy, I am also completely willing to go find him."

Qiu Keying was moved to tears by the words of Li Wanchang and his wife, instantly falling into a "love-brain" state, expressing her willingness to run back and forth to see Li Xiao.

As a father, Qiu Chu didn't object. Based on what he had seen, he also thought Li Xiao was a good child. He was satisfied with his personal conditions and family background, and most importantly, his daughter liked him.

"Keying is right. Dating is a matter for two people; taking care of each other is as it should be."

Hearing this, Li Wanchang and his wife couldn't help but look at each other and smile. Then they heard Li's wife say: "Then it should be Li Xiao taking care of Keying more. Keying is Chairman Qiu's precious daughter; we definitely won't let her suffer even the slightest grievance here with Li Xiao."

These words made it sound as if Qiu Keying was about to marry Li Xiao, making Qiu Keying's little face blush.

Who knew that the next second, Qiu Keying's peripheral vision caught a stunning silhouette.

It wasn't that she looked at it subjectively, but she was attracted by that figure inadvertently.

Not just her, many people present had their gazes focused on her, intentionally or unintentionally, because of the appearance of that figure.

Shen Ci, arm-in-arm with Su Zheyuan, had just passed through the front courtyard and arrived at the main courtyard, and people recognized her from time to time and took the initiative to come up to greet and chat.

The opening lines of the crowd were surprisingly consistent; the first sentence was always praising how Shen Ci was truly beautiful enough to stun the heavens today.

Becoming the focus of the scene as soon as she appeared was Shen Ci's innate ability.

Qiu Keying narrowed her eyes and asked suspiciously: "She actually came too?"

Li Wanchang and his wife naturally noticed Shen Ci as well. Li's wife's face stiffened, her lips moved, but she didn't dare to make a sound.

She had learned her lesson, because she was afraid of causing trouble for her husband again and being sent abroad, so she even developed a sense of fear toward Shen Ci.

Li Wanchang was calm and asked in a low voice: "Does Keying know her?"

Qiu Keying nodded, and after withdrawing her gaze, she looked at her father on the side: "Dad, it's her! She's the one who canceled your and my membership at Shuiyun Jian!"

Hearing this, Qiu Chu's eyes toward Shen Ci held more exploration: "Is that the little girl?"

"That's right. Not only did she acquire 'Yunshang Tiangong', but she is also the largest shareholder of 'Shuiyun Jian'. It's all because of her that I have nowhere to choose when I go out to party with friends now."

Qiu Keying was furious when mentioning this matter. Although her membership was canceled, she could actually still enter these two places with friends who were still members.

But Qiu Keying was proud and arrogant, so naturally, she wouldn't patronize Shen Ci's places again, so she always had to choose elsewhere.

As a result, over time, many friends didn't call her for parties anymore, because most people still wanted to choose "Shuiyun Jian" and "Yunshang Tiangong" first.

Because whether it was the overall environment, the restaurant's taste, or other value-added service items, these two places were the ceiling of high-end clubs.

It made some friends around her gradually distance themselves from her, and the social circle of parties would deliberately block her.

Her daughter had mentioned this person to him before. Qiu Chu slowly looked at Li Wanchang and asked: "I heard Li Xiao and this little girl have some conflict?" ===== CHAPTER 774 =====
