Chapter 1632: Similar In Temperament
The young man with the lewd expression casually glanced in Gu Nianzhi’s direction, and his eyes suddenly froze.
Such long legs, such a slim waist, and such voluptuous breasts. Her figure was too sexy...
The man was almost drooling.
“Who is she? Is she from a good family? Why haven’t I seen such a hot chicks in the upper echelons of the imperial capital?!” The man was smiling lasciviously. When he saw Gu Nianzhi looking over, he immediately leaned against the door frame to strike a pose and winked at her.
Gu Nianzhi:”...”
Where did this idiot come from?
She quietly averted her gaze and stood up from the sofa.
Seeing that she was about to leave, the woman who had followed the doctor quickly pushed the man’s arm. She said, “She’s the famous Gu Nianzhi. You don’t even know that? I told you that you shouldn’t have been hanging around those young models all day. Who would become a young model at such a young age if she was from a good family? You spend all day dealing with these bottom barrel people. How would you know true good girls?”
“She’s Gu Nianzhi?!” The man was surprised and quickly straightened up. “She’s the Gu Nianzhi who sent Auntie Qin to prison?!”
“Yeah, who else could she be?” The woman nodded. She lowered her voice and said, “Look at all the things she’s done, but the Old Master still treats her like his granddaughter and has no intention of pursuing the matter. I heard that during the new year this year, the Old Master will invite her back to change her surname, acknowledge her, and celebrate the new year together... Look, Auntie Qin has a criminal record now. Even if she’s not in prison, she’s still Auntie Qin’s only daughter and the Old Master’s only biological granddaughter. She even changed her surname. Do you know why?”
The man with the lewd gaze became even more interested. “Change her surname? Acknowledge her? Is it to confirm the right of inheritance?”
These people came from rich families and had a certain social status.
As third generation heirs, they were most concerned about the right of inheritance.
“Everyone guesses that.” The woman looked around and she said, “Look, nobody is stupid. Didn’t Young Master He bring her to Xiangxuehai... This social circle is filled with the descendants of the top tier in the upper echelon. With our status, we usually can’t enter. If we hadn’t come with Brother Qin, we would have been stopped by the guards at the foot of the mountain, not to mention entering the door...”
Gu Nianzhi was new to this place. She knew nothing about Xiangxuehai, a meeting place among the second generation of the upper class in the capital.
But these two men and women knew everything.
“That’s why, if you marry her, you’ll have one foot in the capital’s upper class. When that time comes, are you afraid you won’t have the right to inherit?” As she spoke, the woman patted the man on the shoulder and smiled. “Second brother, go ahead and do it! I have high hopes for you!”
The man’s heart was burning with ambition from her words. In a fit of impulse, he didn’t care about anything else. He quickly rushed to Gu Nianzhi’s side and said very obsequiously and politely, “Miss Gu, right? Where are you going? I’ll go with you.”
Although he could do whatever he wanted with those young models, he did not dare act rashly when it came to women of high status.
As the heir of a wealthy family, it would be a waste of his time in the capital if he did not have such discerning eyes.
The woman beside him patted her head. Her brother was beyond hope.
She hurried over and smiled at Gu Nianzhi. “You’re Miss Gu, right? I’m Luo Piaopiao, and he’s my second brother, Luo Yaozu. Although it’s a little presumptuous, we’re still relatives. Please forgive us if we’ve offended you.”
Gu Nianzhi originally didn’t want to talk to the two of them, she saw how proactive they were, especially the girl, who looked more and more like Wen Shouyi when she smiled.
Although their temperaments were different, their facial features were similar.
Gu Nianzhi’s brain was like a high-performance computer. It had already stored the girl’s appearance in her mind, and automatically compared it with Wen Shouyi’s appearance.
The more she looked at her, the more she felt the resemblance. Her heart stirred, and she said politely, “Is that so? I just came back and haven’t seen any relatives. May I ask which one of my parents you are related to?”
“Of course it’s your mother!” Luo Piaopiao closed her palms and said with a smile, “Your mother, Auntie Qin, is also our aunt!”
“Oh?” Gu Nianzhi quietly walked to the high chair at the bar counter and sat down. She raised her chin. “Sit.”
The place where she had stayed was a little remote in the hall. She didn’t know what the two of them wanted, so it was safer for her to go to a crowded place.
This wasn’t some impressive skill.
As a single woman, she should have this kind of vigilance when she went clubbing.
Not only were there a few men and women chatting at the bar counter, but there were also two very muscular bartenders who were wiping glasses and mixing drinks.
Gu Nianzhi knew at a glance that these two bartenders must also be the bodyguards of this place.
Sure enough, after she sat down, the valiant-looking bartenders on the left walked over with a smile and nodded at her. “Miss Gu, what would you like to drink?”
He added, “Young Master he has instructed that Miss Gu is not allowed to drink alcohol yet. She can only drink milk and juice.”
Gu Nianzhi had been sitting on a high chair with her legs crossed. She had planned to pretend to be a seasoned frequent bar patron to satisfy her cravings while she was at it. In the end, she had been exposed by the bartender in less than a second.
Feeling humiliated, she knocked on the bar counter in front of her angrily and said, “I’m already 20 years old. Why can’t you give me a drink?!”
Luo Yaozu, who was beside her, opened his mouth and looked at her for a while. He quickly said, “Miss Gu, what kind of drink do you want? I’ll buy it for you...”
“Who are you?” The valiant-looking bartender did not wait for Gu Nianzhi to speak. He immediately looked at Luo Yaozu. “I don’t remember you being on the guest list. Do you have an invitation card? Or an ID card? I’ll go check the guest list.”
They did not open their business to the public. They used the private clubhouse system.
If one wanted to come in, they had to first pay a guarantor’s astronomical deposit, then pay an annual fee of more than seven figures every year.
Even after paying the annual fee, one wouldn’t be able to come as one pleased.
When there was an event, the clubhouse would send out invitations, and only clubhouse members who received the invitations could come.
This greatly protected the privacy of the clubhouse members.
He Zhichu had not appeared in this clubhouse in all these years, but he was one of the founders here. Now that he was back, a group of childhood friends and former friends all wanted to get together with him.
They waited until he finally relented before they took advantage of the snow to book a place called Xiangxuehai and invited him for a get together.
The bartender looked at the guest list for the day and confirmed that these two were not on it.
Luo Piaopiao did not expect a bartender to be so cocky, especially in front of Gu Nianzhi. She could not help but fly into a rage out of humiliation. She patted the bar counter with her hand and said, “Brother Li invited us! He personally brought my Brother Qin in just now!”
“Fourth Brother Qin?” The bartender looked at the door thoughtfully. “Was it the bone setter who was just invited?”
“... What bone setter?! My Fourth Brother Qin is the famous head of the Orthopedics Department of the Qin Corporation’s Private Hospital!”
Luo Piaopiao was so angry that she puffed out her cheeks.
Luo Yaozu, on the other hand, was a little scared. The bartender flexed his muscles at him, and he felt so intimidated that he wanted to hide under the table.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the brother and sister coldly. Although they weren’t very nice people, they might be a good starting point for digging into the Qin family’s history.
However, she still had to verify their identities.
Therefore, Gu Nianzhi didn’t stop the bartender from questioning the brother and sister. She only smiled and watched the show.
Another bartender walked over with a smile and handed Gu Nianzhi a glass of warm milk. “Miss Gu, this is organic milk. It’s mellow and delicious.”
Gu Nianzhi took the glass resentfully and took a sip from the straw. She leaned back against the bar counter and snorted. “You’re exaggerating. It’s just a glass of milk. Do you dare to give me a cocktail?”
“No, I don’t dare to.” The two bartenders laughed together and looked up. “Young Master He is here.”
Gu Nianzhi looked up from the straw and saw He Zhichu striding over from the other side of the living room.
Luo Piaopiao was so excited when she saw He Zhichu that she couldn’t walk anymore.
“He... He!” Wishing she could kneel under his straight suit pants, she stuttered as she greeted him
He Zhichu glanced at her and nodded slightly. He walked over to Gu Nianzhi’s side and rubbed her head. His cold expression softened a little. “Why are you unhappy? Did your new friends make you unhappy?”
Gu Nianzhi put the milk on the bar counter. Her jade-like eyes darted around as she said, “Why would I be unhappy? This is Luo Yaozu and this is Luo Piaopiao. The siblings said that they’re Qin Yaoguang’s sister’s children.”
He Zhichu sat down and took the red wine the bartender handed over. He said, “Qin Yaoguang is an only child. Where did she get a sister?”
Gu Nianzhi grunted and looked at the Luo siblings in confusion.
Luo Piaopiao quickly said, “My mother is Auntie Qin’s cousin. We are really relatives of the Qin family!”
“Cousin? That’s possible.” He Zhichu rubbed his forehead. “It seems that only Qin Yaoguang’s family was sparsely populated. All the other families in the Qin family were quite fertile.”
Gu Nianzhi:”...”
