The Beautiful CEO’s Chapter 1226 - 1238:

Chapter 1226: Chapter 1238:

As soon as Yuwen Kangli heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, "That’s good. I was worried that if it’s not pure, it might harm the body."

The conversation was lively, and before anyone realized, the relationship between Chu Ge and Yuwen Kangli had grown much closer.

The two sat at the table, chatting and laughing, piquing the curiosity and jealousy of soone not far away.

And this person was none other than Gongsun Lihan.

Since Chu Ge entered, her gaze was fixed on him, following him wherever he went, entirely neglecting the conversations around her.

However, when she saw Chu Ge speaking intimately with Nangong Man Sha, her whole deanor almost collapsed.

Nangong Man Sha was the epito of allure in n’s eyes, incredibly seductive. Although Lihan was a young lady of noble stature, she hadn’t yet matured in the right places; the wrong areas filled out instead.

"Lihan, what are you looking at? So absorbed."

One girl asked curiously.

Gongsun Lihan shook her head, "Nothing, just looking around."

"You call it ’looking around’? I’ve seen you staring in that direction for quite a while."

The girl followed Gongsun Lihan’s gaze and imdiately noticed Yuwen Kangli sitting there, smiling and sipping tea.

She paused, her lips twitching slightly, "Lihan, you can’t possibly be staring at Yuwen Kangli, are you?"

"What? No way."

Another girl heard her words and looked at Gongsun Lihan in shock, saying, "Lihan, at this party, with so many young gentlen, why would you focus on Yuwen Kangli? His reputation in the upper-class is infamous."

"Exactly, Lihan, are you falling for him? Even though the Yuwen Family background and influence are on par with the Gongsun Family, Yuwen Kangli is no longer the future heir, and his current status is precarious. Outsiders don’t trust him; you won’t be happy with him."

As Gongsun Lihan listened to her friends’ continuous chatter, she was visibly frustrated, "Please, can you speak reasonably? Just because I’m looking in that direction doesn’t an I’m looking at Yuwen Kangli. I can’t stand Yuwen Kangli."

Gongsun Lihan snorted irritably.

"Who are you looking at then?"

"There’s only Yuwen Kangli over there."

Gongsun Lihan grew annoyed, "Who said there’s only Yuwen Kangli there? Can’t you see the handso man beside him?"

Neglecting her idol like this was simply outrageous.

They paused, puzzled as they looked toward Yuwen Kangli’s side again. Sure enough, they saw a man in a blue-ink suit sitting next to Yuwen Kangli.

But among the wealthy, this man seed rather ordinary.

"Who is this man?"

"I don’t know him, never seen him. Is he from another family?"

"Probably not. He seems unfamiliar. Maybe Yuwen Kangli brought a friend to avoid loneliness."

"Haha, even Yuwen Kangli still has friends."

"That’s not right. Even if Yuwen Kangli’s reputation stinks, he’s still a Yuwen family heir. People are wealthy, and in this society that worships money, wealth can make a ghost turn the mill; so people give up dignity for money."

"True, alas, money’s temptation is too big."

As they chatted away, Gongsun Lihan grew even more agitated.

"Enough!" she shouted irritatedly. "Are you done talking?"

The girls, puzzled and upset by her sudden outburst, stayed quiet, mindful of her status as Gongsun Family’s heiress.

"Lihan, what’s wrong? Why such anger?"

"Indeed, did soone say sothing wrong just now?"

Gongsun Lihan raised her eyes, glaring at them, snorting, "Everything you said is wrong! Do you even know who that is, making comnts like that?"

"Who is he then? Lihan, do you know him?"

"That’s Chu Ge! You’ve heard of Chu Ge, right?"

Soone shook her head, puzzled, asking, "Who is Chu Ge?"

Gongsun Lihan was so angry she nearly burst.

"You don’t know Chu Ge? You’ve wasted yourselves mixing in upper-class society!"

Gongsun Lihan rolled her eyes, exasperated.

"Oh, I rember, the Chu Ge you ntioned is the one who treated Old Master Nangong recently? Heard his dical skill is superb; Kyoto First Renimin Hospital wanted him as a consulting expert, and he refused."

"Really? So his background is backed by the Nangong Family?"

"Not entirely. I heard he recently obtained a batch of Earth Ganoderma, which is worth a hundred tis more than Lingzhi. Six Major Families’ elders seem to have gotten them from him."

Those who had just mocked Chu Ge’s face changed drastically, "Is he connected with Six Major Families of Kyoto?"

"Unlikely, selling a few Earth Ganoderma doesn’t link him with Six Major Families. Besides, I just saw Han Feng disrupting them."

"Han Feng attended this party? I thought he refused such events."

"Who knows, I just saw Han Feng clashing with Chu Ge; Han Feng’s face changed."

"Hahaha, Han Feng’s a little tyrant, for Chu Ge to get the better of him, this Chu Ge’s quite sothing. I want to et him."

As they talked, they turned their gaze to Gongsun Lihan, "Lihan, are you familiar with Chu Ge?"

Gongsun Lihan raised her neck, "Familiar? Of course, we’re familiar."

"Since you know him, let’s say hello."

"Exactly, let us see this legendary Chu Ge."

Chu Ge’s back was to them, only a side profile visible, which couldn’t be clearly seen due to the angle.

Faced with everyone’s request, Gongsun Lihan suddenly hesitated, awkwardly saying, "We’re so many; it might not be appropriate."

"What’s inappropriate? Many girls want to et him; it’s his luck. He should be proud."

Gongsun Lihan had long wanted to greet Chu Ge, just hesitant with her friends around to speak.

Now, with them suggesting it, she was naturally delighted.

Yet, as a Gongsun heiress, she still needed to show so restraint and then nod in agreent.
