Chapter 41:

When Gu Shengnan and Lu Jin arrived at Ming Ting No. 1 store, it was already the beginning of Hua Deng.
The doorman opened the door for Lu Jin.
After Lu Jin got out of the car, he gracefully handed out a hand to greet Gu Shengnan.
Gu Shengnan was sitting in the car, hurriedly changing the flat shoes on her feet to high heels. Throwing the flat shoes into the car, she pulled the broken hair from the sideburns, put Lu Jin's arm, and got out of the car cautiously.
Lu Jin didn't need to turn his head to look at her at all, just glance at the doorman who was staring blankly, Lu Jin raised the corner of his mouth secretly, slightly proud of it with disdain.
But obviously Miss Gu broke her work without taking two steps--
Because she was afraid of falling, she had to hold his arm tightly, and she had to be careful with every step.
Lu Jin couldn't help but stop, and carefully taught her: "Don't be afraid of the tail, take out some aura."
Gu Shengnan was still worried about the ten-centimeter high heels that he was kicking under his feet, and he responded, "What aura?"
"Queen aura."
Seeing that the woman had no confidence in herself, she kept looking down to check if she was stepping on the skirt. Lu Jin snapped his fingers leisurely, which caused Gu Shengnan to look up at him.
Lu Jin raised his chin arrogantly, "Come on, learn from me... First, you need to tighten your lower abdomen."
Gu Shengnan did.
"Then, open your shoulders and lift your head up."
Gu Shengnan did the same.
"Finally, I thought ‘I’m going to kill someone’."
Gu Shengnan was a little embarrassed, but Lu Jin had already preached and preached a cold look that I was going to kill.
"Keep this look of contempt for the common people, 1, 2, 3, get up!"
This arrogant pair of men and women stepped on the eyes of others unconsciously, and walked into the hotel lobby without anyone else.
Gu Shengnan thought in his heart: I am going to kill, I am going to kill...
Until suddenly he was stopped by Meng Xinjie.
Meng Xinjie had been waiting in the lobby for a long time. When Gu Shengnan and Lu Jin walked into his field of vision, he recognized Lu Jin at first sight, and hurried to them.
But he obviously did not recognize Gu Shengnan. Sweeped by Gu Shengnan's cold and disdainful gaze, Meng Xinjie shrinks his neck reflexively. He avoids this murderous gaze, and turns his head to meet Lu Jin's all-encompassing gaze, immediately causing Meng Xinjie I felt that I had already died under the eyes of these two people.
Gu Shengnan was almost as high as Lujin when he put on the high heels. The three tall men walked together, and everyone tacitly chose not to take the same elevator with them until the elevator rose steadily. Gu Shengnan saw that there were no outsiders around, no more There is no need to say "I'm going to kill" silently, just relax the whole body.
While leaning against the elevator wall like a mollusk without bones, she looked at Meng Xinjie: "Where is Xu Zhaodi? Didn't she come with you?"
Meng Xinjie's expression was obviously frozen.
After reacting, Meng Xinjie's eyes immediately swept towards Gu Shengnan like a radar.
It's a pity that Meng Xinjie observed for a long time, but still didn't dare to recognize it. He had to look at Lu Jin as if asking for help. After getting Lu Jin's acquiescence, Meng Xinjie finally dared to say: "Teacher Gu?"
Gu Shengnan was about to nod to Meng Xinjie, but when he heard Meng Xinjie immediately added: "You were too successful in plastic surgery!"
"..."
"..."
Gu Shengnan is now able to put on an expression of "I want to kill" to Meng Xinjie without having to meditate in his heart.
Meng Xinjie was stunned by her expression.
Fortunately, the elevator reached the top floor at this time. As soon as the "ding" sounded into Meng Xinjie's ears, Meng Xinjie couldn't wait to press the door open button again and again. Before the elevator door was completely opened, he leaned out.
Lu Jin silently took her hand to his arm and hooked it. Gu Shengnan couldn't care about the other things at this time. He immediately stood up straight, put his abdomen away, opened his shoulders, raised his head and chest, 1, 2, 3, and go. Up!
Two waiters opened the door to the dinner scene for them.
Looking around, they were all dressed-up men and women who were chatting and laughing together, and there were outsiders. Lu Jin started the B mode by himself, and Gu Shengnan even saw Meng Xinjie's 800-year-old appearance for the first time.
Under such ears and eyes, Gu Shengnan also learned such polite communication etiquette in a short while, and when meeting the stranger's eyes, he alienated and smiled politely.
As we walked in, the gazes from the men present made Lu Jin’s mouth faintly raised, but Gu Shengnan was irritated by these gazes stuck on her body. Fortunately, Meng Xinjie explained to her the situation at the scene and could help. She was distracted: "Lu Mingting, the chairman of Mingting Group, is still in the hospital. Tonight is Lu Zheng, the young boss of Mingting Group. That's—"
Meng Xinjie said, not forgetting to point to the man standing at the main table and talking with others.
Gu Shengnan stood not far away from the main table in the center of the venue, and quickly recognized Lu Zheng
Wasn't it the handsome man she met when she accompanied Lu Jin in the hospital last time?
Gu Shengnan had to look at Lu Jin.
Lu Jin’s expression hasn’t changed much, he is still in B-ass mode, but Gu Shengnan is a little lacking in confidence: "Did Lu Zheng invited you?"
As soon as I mentioned Lu Zheng, I saw Lu Zheng's reminder and looked towards them.
Then he walked directly towards them.
Lu Jin smiled silently at Gu Shengnan, but his eyes were telling her: Quickly activate the murder mode for me.
Then he led her towards Lu Zheng greeted the past.
Gu Shengnan had no choice but to meditate on the essentials here: Put your lower abdomen away, open your shoulders, raise your head and chest, 1, 2, 3, go!
Sure enough, after she had "killing eyes", her treatment was very different. At that time, she hadn't seen her Lu Zheng in the hospital. Now she said to her and Lu Jin very politely: "My vice president also told me that I saw a very beautiful woman at the scene, so I must be talking about your female companion."
Lu Zheng smiled at her: "How do you call it?"
Gu Shengnan smiled unconsciously: "My last name is Gu."
"Good meeting." Lu Zheng stretched out his hand towards her.
Gu Shengnan was about to shake Lu Zheng's hand, but was interrupted in the middle of—
Someone came to Lu Jin, who seemed to be Lu Jin's assistant: "President Lu, your mother is downstairs."
The expressions of Lu Jin and Lu Zheng both sank.
Lu Zheng nodded slightly to Lu Jin: "I'm sorry to miss you for a while."
After speaking, he left quickly.
Gu Shengnan looked back at Lu Zheng's departed back, frowning involuntarily: "Could the be the old lady who drove us out of Ming Ting Hotel last time?"
She did not get Lu Jin's answer.
"Why does Lu Zheng look like he didn't expect his mother to come here?"
Lu Jin finally spoke, but instead of answering her question, he was--
"Don't shake hands with him."
Lu Jin ordered slightly dissatisfied.
Gu Shengnan looked back when she heard the words, she glanced at Lu Jin, his expression was very vague, making it difficult to guess his thoughts.
When Gu Shengnan was about to pick him up, a strange man in a suit and leather shoes came to her, and Man Sheng said, "This lady..."
Gu Shengnan looked at the strange man, and soon welcomed the other's opening remarks: "Are you an employee of Mingting? Why haven't I seen you before?"
This person... came to talk?
Gu Shengnan had never dealt with this situation before and glanced at Lu Jin subconsciously.
She thought Lu Jin would block the strange man, but unexpectedly he watched leisurely.
Gu Shengnan had to deal with it by himself.
Soon the strange man handed out his business card first: "This is my business card."
The implication is to exchange contact information with each other.
But at this moment--
"Sorry, she didn't bring her business card." Lu Jin finally couldn't help but interjected, his tone was cold.
The strange man couldn't help looking at Lu Jin.
Lu Jin seems to be born with a unique extinction: just with indifferent eyes can despise people into the dust. After staring at Lu Jin like this for only half a second, the man couldn't help avoiding his sight, and once again focused on conquering Gu Shengnan: "It's nice to meet you, then...free to contact me?"
Gu Shengnan nodded.
Before leaving, the strange man wanted to shake hands with Gu Shengnan, but at this moment, Lu Jin stretched out a hand from the stab, shook Gu Shengnan's hand, and then hid her hand behind him
"Sorry, she has a habit of cleanliness."
Lu Jin looked defiant, and the strange man had to give up and leave.
The next second after the opponent left, Lu Jin took away the business card that Gu Shengnan had just obtained.
Lu Jin led her to continue to the dining table with their name cards. When passing by a dining table, Lu Jin put the business card on the table without taking it away.
Gu Shengnan protested: "This is ordinary social etiquette, OK?"
"not good."
He answered lightly.
Gu Shengnan was a little embarrassed: "Then why didn't you take me away sooner? You have to wait for others to talk to me about it, so you can get in again?"
Lu Jin glanced back at the gray-headed hit-up man, and the corners of his mouth raised a slightly arrogant arc: "I just want them to see and eat."
It's terrible...
Gu Shengnan could only help her forehead.
Soon after they took their seats, they saw Lu Zheng go back and return, but they didn't see the shadow of the old lady.
The dinner also kicked off soon.
The master of ceremonies invited everyone present to applaud, in order to welcome Lu Zheng to the stage and open his speech.
There was thunderous applause.
Gu Shengnan raised both hands and was about to applaud with everyone. Seeing Lu Jin sitting there calmly and motionless, she also gave up angrily.
"My father is ill and is temporarily unable to attend this 20th anniversary celebration dinner. On behalf of my father, I would like to express my deep gratitude to all of you present here for the efforts of Ming Ting Group over the past 20 years..."
The road signs on the stage, showing the general demeanor between the gestures, the words were finished, once again aroused a wave of applause.
Gu Shengnan glanced at Lu Jin subconsciously, and happened to see him pushing away the chair to get up.
Seeing her looking at herself, Lu Jin dropped a little bit of a chatter: "You go smoke a cigarette."
He said he was going to smoke a cigarette, but Lu Zheng's speech was over, and Gu Shengnan hadn't seen him come back. Meng Xinjie sat there just chatting with Xu Zhaodi on WeChat, Gu Shengnan was completely left alone, and simply left temporarily.
Guided by the waiter, Gu Shengnan quickly found a non-smoking lounge.
Gu Shengnan was about to push the door to enter, but one of the double doors was opened from the inside. Gu Shengnan was shocked and quickly let go.
But the door was only opened by a gap, and the opponent stopped.
Then, the voice of a semi-unfamiliar older woman overflowed from the crack of the door: "I don't know what you used to let Lu Zheng relax your guard, and even invited you to such an important celebration dinner without letting me know. , But, I will tell you clearly, as long as I live one day, Lu Mingting’s inheritance book will never have your name and your mother’s name."
Gu Shengnan was startled.
The old lady's voice was clearly heard from deeper in the lounge, so the person who was only separated from her by a door at the moment should be Lu Jin.
Lu Jin, who is so proud, always accepts such ridicule. What kind of injured expression will he look like when he stands frozen behind the door?
Gu Shengnan didn't dare to think anymore, she gritted her teeth, pushed open the other half of the door, and walked in.
As expected, Lu Jin stood at the door, still holding the doorknob in his hand. He raised his head to look at her who had suddenly entered, his gloomy gaze was replaced by surprise.
Gu Shengnan only looked back at him for a moment without saying a word to him, and went straight to the old lady Lu sitting on the sofa against the wall.
Old lady Lu held a lady's cigarette in her hand, her appearance was graceful and luxurious, but her complexion was gloomy.
Seeing another uninvited guest came in, he fiercely pushed the cigarette into the ashtray: "Isn't this a VIP lounge? Why can all people come in?"
Gu Shengnan didn't answer this question, but instead asked her: "Lady Lu, can you let me say something?"
The old lady looked at Gu Shengnan warily.
Gu Shengnan smiled at her neither humble nor arrogant: "It seems that you are the old man who always talks about the word'heritage'? On the contrary, it is Lu Jin, who has never mentioned it at all. Pretentious people will always fall into one. It’s a misunderstanding. People who think that they are treasures will surely be scrambled and scrambled for them, but in fact, maybe these things are not in the eyes of others."
The old lady's eyes suddenly drenched: "You!"
"Mrs. Lu, don't get angry. What I'm talking about is a common phenomenon, not deliberately targeting you. You are not too young anymore, and you are not very angry when you are angry."
The old lady Lu got up with a sullen face and went straight to Gu Shengnan: "What are you? You taught me a lesson?"
Gu Shengnan didn’t avoid it, he still smiled like that, but in this smile, there is still an aura of self-prestige: "Moreover, when you drove me and Lu Jin out of the Ming Ting Hotel last time, I couldn’t correct it. You made a mistake at the time—Lu Jin didn’t come back to City B from Shanghai because he was coveting your family business. He came back for me. Again, you hold the treasure that you don’t let go, in others’ eyes. Come on, it's nothing..."
Obviously, the old lady has never been so despised in her life. The old lady looked like she was about to rush up angrily in the next second to catch Gu Shengnan's eyes like a looking at an ant.
Gu Shengnan closed it when he saw it, turned around and walked to the door, pulling up Lu Jin and leaving.
She felt how stiff his body was, so she squeezed his hand tighter.
Without looking back, waved to the old lady Lu behind him: "Farewell."

After leaving the lounge, the two did not return to the banquet hall, but went straight to the elevator.
She was holding his hand and walking, but instead he held her instead.
With palms facing each other, Lu Jin felt the warmth that this woman passed on to him.
Unprecedented warmth.
Lu Jin walked faster and faster, his feet brisk, and the wind hanging around his ears seemed to have the smell of a talented lounge, but it would no longer disgust him.
He will no longer remember the prejudice and injustice he suffered in the lounge.
And only remember her sentence: He came back for me...
This woman, everyone thought she was just a barren forest, but only he knew that she could bring others the most beautiful pastoral songs.
With his "Pastoral Pastoral", he looked at him with a little triumph: "How about it? I have a second chance, right?"
Lu Jin put away all the ups and downs in his heart, and only raised an eyebrow at her faintly: "Killing is invisible. That's right, it's so true to me."
Gu Shengnan decided not to speak and despised him with his eyes.
The elevator arrived soon, and as soon as Lu Jin took a step forward, he heard a distant sound: "Wait!"
The road sign was chased out.
Lu Jin did not stop, and pulled Gu Shengnan straight into the elevator.
Lu Zheng stretched out his hand in the gap in the last second before the elevator door closed.
The elevator doors opened again.
Lu Zheng’s speech is very fast: "My father's liver failure is very fast, but we have exhausted methods and have yet to find a suitable one... I know that this request is excessive, but I still have to say, can you Go to the hospital for a matching check?"
"..."
"..."
In the silence of the three parties, the elevator doors closed again.
In the elevator going down gently, Gu Shengnan looked at Lu Jin with some uncertainty, only to see his expression was dark.
