Chapter 164: Climbing into President Ji's Bed to Enter the Upper Crust

After a long moment, he chuckled, his face light and breezy: "If Tingyan cannot handle it well."

Gu Laoyezi: "If he cannot consolidate his own position, it means the person in power of the Gu Family is not suitable for him."

"Even if it were given to him, how long could the Gu Group remain glorious?"

Gu Laoyezi lowered his head and took a light sip of tea: "I believe he can handle it well."

Time: 17:50 in the evening,

Location: New Sharp Technology Group

People began to enter the banquet hall one after another; those arriving were elites of high society, wealthy merchants, and political leaders.

The men were in suits and leather shoes, wearing tailcoats or crisp, high-end tailored suits.

The women wore exquisite and beautiful makeup, adorned with precious jewelry and high-end gowns, their postures elegant and noble; the sight of the ladies and socialites in their gorgeous attire and graceful figures at the banquet fully displayed the refined atmosphere of a high-society gathering.

Chu Sheng arrived at the bustling banquet hall, filled with the scent of perfume and the clinking of glasses, while holding Gu Tingyan's arm.

Today she wore a purple evening gown, adorned with a set of jewelry worth five million, and wore an expensive watch on her wrist worth 210 million; she was surrounded by finery, looking wealthy and elegant.

The crowd in the banquet hall turned their eyes to the two of them, bringing forth a wave of endless exclamations.

Some time ago, at Gu Tingyan and Chu Sheng's engagement party, his ex-wife had made a glamorous appearance, and that engagement party was completely ruined.

Who didn't know that four years ago, when Qin Shu was in a car accident, Gu Tingyan rushed to the scene and ran over like a madman to save her, nearly losing his life in the sea of fire.

That video is still circulating on the internet today.

Everyone thought that since Gu Tingyan had loved his ex-wife so much back then, now that Qin Shu had returned and was fine, he would surely break off the engagement with the Chu Family.

Unexpectedly, these two actually appeared hand-in-hand at such an important occasion for New Sharp Technology.

The crowd looked at the scene before them in disbelief, whispering: "Are they really planning to marry?"

"Doesn't Gu Tingyan love Qin Shu very much? How could he marry someone else?"

"If a man's words were reliable, sows could climb trees."

"A man sheds a few crocodile tears and acts affectionate, and you actually believe it?"

"Have you all forgotten? Chu Sheng was Gu Tingyan's first love, and in the end, didn't he say he fell in love with Qin Shu?"

"That's right, it's been four years; in reality, if a man's wife dies, he probably starts looking for women by the second month."

"Heh, you think too highly of men; my childhood friend's mother died, and his dad hooked up with a widow the very next day."

"………"

Gu Tingyan brought Chu Sheng into the venue, and the sharp-witted people in the banquet hall saw him and immediately stepped forward to flatter him: "Mr. Gu is still as handsome as Pan An, imposing and dashing, and full of grace."

"You and Miss Chu are simply a match made in heaven! A divine couple!"

"Yes, yes, you are truly a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman."

Those who had just been gossiping and discussing immediately crowded around them.

Chu Sheng and Gu Tingyan were surrounded, exchanging pleasantries and discussing business topics with others, as well as the mysterious Miss Lynn of today.

Someone pointed casually and exclaimed: "Look, Mr. Ji is here!"

"Why is he bringing Qin Shu with him?"

At the entrance, Ji Yanli was in a crisp black suit, his face handsome and his posture upright.

And by his side, Qin Shu was also dressed in a capable outfit today, a white shirt paired with jeans, her hair slightly tied into a bun, looking fresh and clean.

She had a bit of a powerhouse aura, yet her face was too bright and moving; that outfit on her added a unique charm.

Full of allure yet completely capable, she was the perfect combination of a powerhouse woman and a beauty.

As soon as Qin Shu appeared in the banquet hall in this attire, it seemed to immediately raise the class of this evening party, stunning countless people.

"So beautiful, she is worthy of being the number one beauty in the entertainment industry back then!"

"Truly beautiful, four years have passed, and she is still so beautiful."

"No wonder Mr. Ji would bring her to such an important occasion; she is really too beautiful."

"However, what is the relationship between these two? They seem very intimate."

The embellishment of the beauty brought the heat of this party to an unprecedented high.

On such an important occasion today, men basically brought their own wives, not mistresses.

Those who came were true elites of high society; only Qin Shu was an exception, as she was just a female celebrity, out of place in this circle.

Although Qin Shu only had a pretty face and understood neither technology nor medical common sense, that face alone was enough to make people cut her some slack.

Because she was truly too beautiful, just looking at her was a feast for the eyes.

Someone chuckled: "Perhaps Mr. Ji just brought this great beauty here today to hold up the scene."

They did not believe that Qin Shu would understand any technical things.

But her beauty could always make people overlook these things; as long as she was beautiful enough, that was fine.

A man chuckled: "However, Mr. Ji is likely also bewitched by the beauty."

"That is Mr. Gu's former ex-wife after all; the woman he took a fancy to certainly wouldn't be bad."

Hearing this, Chu Sheng's grip on Gu Tingyan's arm tightened abruptly, and she immediately looked at Gu Tingyan nervously, fearing that he might walk toward Qin Shu at any moment.

However, Gu Tingyan only lifted his eyes to glance at the entrance, his face expressionless, without any emotion.

It seemed that he was neither surprised nor indifferent to Qin Shu's appearance.

Chu Sheng wore a faint smile and asked tentatively: "Tingyan, I didn't expect Qin Shu to come too."

"Should we go over and say hello?"

Gu Tingyan said indifferently: "No need."

Chu Sheng felt a little more joyful in her heart; she held Gu Tingyan's arm and stood by his side as if declaring her sovereignty, looking at Qin Shu with a faint smile: "Ji Yanli is really being ridiculous."

She shook her head and sighed as if disappointed: "To bring Qin Shu here on such an important occasion today."

Chu Sheng chuckled, her face full of contempt and confidence: "The rise of New Sharp Technology cannot be separated from technology, medicine, and the internet."

"I'm afraid Qin Shu doesn't know the first thing about these three things, right?"

The woman beside her chuckled and chimed in, "For sure. I bet she only managed to get in by crawling into President Ji's bed."

"She can't compare to President Chu."

Reality is just like that; although Qin Shu is the original wife and Chu Sheng stepped in to take her place, the latter is indeed the Gu Family's fiancée now.

Besides that, she is also the future heir to the Chu Group.

What is Qin Shu's status? Ever since her grandmother died, she became an orphan, a woman with no father or mother and no family background to back her up.

She won a Best Actress award in the entertainment industry, but that was four years ago; she was so popular back then but suddenly disappeared, missing out on such a good match herself.

What's more, these wealthy merchants and high-society figures look down on actors from the entertainment industry the most.

Both male and female celebrities are the types of people who want to latch onto wealthy men and rich women.
