Chapter 443: Attending the Banquet
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, as everyone was looking forward to it, it slowly arrived.
This morning, the Chu family woke up. Even Chu An, who always liked to sleep in, didn’t cling onto Gu Xiao and ask to stay in bed.
After all, he knew that if a girl wanted to attend a banquet, she needed to make too many preparations. Dress, makeup, hair… These things needed to be considered.
Even the men had to prepare well. They couldn’t go to the banquet with stubble and looking tired, right?
Hence, after breakfast, Mrs Chu brought Gu Xiao and Wei Xuexi out to prepare for the banquet later.
Although Chu An and the other two didn’t need to go through so much trouble, considering that their wives/girlfriends had already left, there didn’t seem to be any meaning for them to stay at home, so they followed.
In the evening, guests gradually entered the venue.
The guests who arrived were holding wine glasses in their hands. When they saw people they were familiar with, they would walk forward and talk to them.
Work, life, and politics were all topics of conversation among the guests, but other than these, most of the topics were about Gu Xiao.
“I wonder if the Chu family will really bring Gu Xiao here today. Not everyone can enter the Song family’s banquet. If the Chu family can bring Gu Xiao here today, it means that they have really acknowledged Gu Xiao, right?” f(r)eenovelkiss.com
“Actually, I think that Gu Xiao is a good girl. She’s good-looking and capable. She was able to establish her company in the industry in a mere three years.”
“I heard some rumors previously. It’s said that Gu Xiao’s company developed too quickly and snatched other people’s share of the industry, so some people want to teach Gu Xiao a lesson.”
“Teach Gu Xiao a lesson? If Gu Xiao was really brought out by the Chu family today, no one would dare to really attack Gu Xiao, right?”
“That’s not necessarily true. Didn’t the eldest young master of the Chu family start his own business in university previously? Some people didn’t know his identity as the eldest young master of the Chu family and even attacked the company of the eldest young master of the Chu family at that time. Didn’t the Chu family not make a move either?” f reewe bnovel
“This is different. Back then, Chu Zi had already confirmed that he was going to inherit the Chu Corporation. You can say that company belonged to Chu Zi, but it was actually his classmate’s. Chu Zi was just playing around, so he naturally couldn’t take it seriously. But Gu Xiao… the person standing beside her is Chu An.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present revealed a trace of understanding.
After all, the Chu family valued Chu An, the second young master, and this was already famous in the circle. If something really happened to Chu An’s little girlfriend and Chu An went home to ask the Chu family to deal with it, could the Chu family refuse?
“Alright, alright. Where did this topic go? We’re talking about whether Gu Xiao will be brought out by the Chu family today!”
“In that case, I’ve heard some news. It seems that Gu Xiao and Chu An are already engaged, but there’s no big banquet. It’s just a meal between the two families.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the person who said this was patted on the shoulder by someone beside him.
“Is this news true?”
“It’s just a rumor,” someone said. “If Gu Xiao and Chu An are really engaged, the Chu family will definitely bring Gu Xiao here this time. We just have to wait. When the Chu family arrives, we’ll know what Gu Xiao’s status is in the Chu family.”
Although she said that, everyone present was still a little curious.
After all, there were many people who had their eyes on the position of the Chu family’s Second Young Mistress.
Although there was news that Gu Xiao and Chu An were in a relationship, as long as they weren’t engaged and Gu Xiao wasn’t brought out by the Chu family, they still had a chance.
Everyone knew the benefits of getting close to the Chu family. Naturally, there were also people who were unwilling to give up.
However, when the Chu family arrived at the banquet hall, those who still had the hope of getting lucky completely dispelled their covetous thoughts about Chu An.
Because not only was Gu Xiao here, but she was also standing beside Mrs Chu and was brought in by Mrs Chu. Back then, after Wei Xuexi’s relationship with Chu Zi was confirmed, she was also brought to the banquet by Mrs Chu.
Needless to say, Chu An was standing on Gu Xiao’s other side. The moment their eyes met, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the atmosphere between Gu Xiao and Chu An wasn’t right.. Pink bubbles could be felt around the two of them!
