Chapter 592: Friend’s Birthday Banquet
“I told you to address differently.”
He Niancheng pulled down her fingers and turned his head as he rested them upon his chest.
At that mont, the tip of his nose was near enough to touch the tip of Gu Qingjiu’s nose.
She suddenly felt shy with so many people present.
She subconsciously glanced towards those people and froze.
“...”
Why were all these people staring fixedly at her and He Niancheng?
And with an astounded expression, too!
Had they never seen lovers behave intimately before?!
Feeling uneasy, Gu Qingjiu imdiately shrunk towards He Niancheng’s side. “I’m too used to it and can’t change my habit so suddenly...”
As she spoke, she asked cautiously, “Why are they all staring at us?”
At the ntion of this, He Niancheng turned his gaze towards the center of the room.
In that instant, everyone present felt a cold air emanating, jolting them out of their trance.
They hurriedly turned their heads away and went about their respective businesses, pretending they hadn’t seen a thing.
However, hushed whispers started ringing in the hall. It was obvious they were discussing the duo.
Although Gu Qingjiu was aware that He Niancheng’s identity was not simple, the way so many rich and famous people were staring at He Niancheng was still too exaggerated!
He Niancheng got to his feet nonchalantly and pulled Gu Qingjiu into another room in the hall.
“Let’s go in and talk.”
Gu Qingjiu nodded. She placed her hand in He Niancheng’s, and the duo walked in hand-in-hand.
After they left, the hushed whispers gradually grew louder.
“My goodness. Is that Young Master Helian’s girlfriend?”
“Why have I never heard of this?”
“They must be a couple. Who is that girl? How did she manage to hook up with the Young Master from Helian family?”
“I’ve never seen Young Master Helian treat soone so gently before!”
“This is too shocking...”
...
The door blocked out the din outside.
Gu Qingjiu saw the place was a small resting lounge, which was illuminated by glamorous lights that gave off an understated opulent vibe.
A unique fragrance perated through the air, a scent that made one feel a little dizzy.
On the right-hand side of the room, there was a minibar.
She could see two full cabinets of red wine at the bar.
All of which were Western brands. Although Gu Qingjiu recognized them, she had never heard of them before.
She then recalled that ti when she drank a can of beer. Although she didn’t get too drunk, the alcohol did get to her head.
Seeing alcohol again, she felt a dizzy sensation.
He Niancheng walked near one of the cabinets, retrieved a bottle of red wine, and then poured himself a glass.
It was the first ti Gu Qingjiu saw He Niancheng drinking alcohol.
The man in front of her wore a retro-style dark-colored coat with floral prints, his deep-set and handso facial features engraved on his face, his pretty eyes making one can’t help but sink into them. He looked so elegant and noble as he drank the red wine that one would have thought he was a perfect deity.
Gu Qingjiu swallowed her saliva as she watched him drink the red wine. “Does it taste good?”
“You’re not to drink it.”
He denied Gu Qingjiu’s idea with these five words. She pouted. “I was rely asking.”
He Niancheng raised a brow. “Don’t you know your situation?”
Gu Qingjiu was speechless.
Of course, she did.
After so thought, she decided that she wouldn’t be able to win an argunt with He Niancheng regarding this, so she then asked, “What’s going on outside? Why are you attending a... banquet today?”
One look, and you know it was a high-class banquet.
“Mm. It’s a friend’s birthday banquet. The main lead isn’t here yet, so I brought you in to get a breather here first.”
