Chapter 9: After graduation, I'll get married.
How dare Nian Qing give her hand to Gu Qing Heng!
Guan Shaoyan was there, Nian Zi was there, she didn't want to invite trouble again.
Alas, Gu Qingheng seemed to be unaware of her difficulties, his hand stretched out, patiently waiting for her response.
All eyes were on them.
Nian Qing couldn't help it, wanting to end the fight quickly, so she stretched out her hand, and her small, delicate hand touched Gu Qingheng's palm. The warmth of his body seeped into her fingertips, driving away the chill.
Gu Qinghe grasped Nian Qing's hand and led her onto the stage together with him.
"Miss Nian, you are the only one among all the people here who has the same character 'Qing' in your name as Mr. Gu, it's like a destined marriage, and tonight's prize, the Pearl of Tears, is yours." The host knew how to liven up the atmosphere, not forgetting to flatter Gu Qingheng and also curry favor with the woman he was holding hands with.
Nian Qingxiang thought, the host might have mistaken her for someone else, taking her as Gu Qingheng's fiancée - Nian Zi.
Pearl tears, sounds pretty bright and loud, but as an activity prize, it's just a mid-to-low-end piece of jewelry.
As a result, when the female secretary handed the jewelry box to Gu Qingheng's hands, inside was actually a necklace that was even more valuable than the one Bian Nian wore on her neck.
Qing furrowed her brow and looked at Gu Qinghu, perplexed.
He had long known that her name contained the character "Qing", and was even prepared with such a valuable prize? Fake?
"I'll help you put it on." Gu Qinghe was elegant and polite, but insisted on personally putting it on Nianqing.
"No need, brother-in-law. This prize can be given to someone else." Nian Qing chose a safe phrase, but in fact, she was very tempted by the necklace and estimated that it could be sold for a good price.
But she didn't dare.
"Take it, Qingqing, consider it a small gift. " Nianzi somehow ended up on stage, took the necklace from Gu Qingheng's hand and put it on Nianqing himself, smiling and saying: "It looks pretty good."
The back line is clear and slightly stiff.
"Thank you, brother-in-law." Her voice was slightly louder, enough for the people on stage to clearly understand her relationship with Gu Qingheng.
After hastily stepping down, Nian Qing hid far away and resolutely refused to have anything to do with Gu Qingheng again. Just now, Nian Zi's smile made her hair stand on end.
Until the end of the dinner party, Gu Qingheng and Nian Qing had no more interactions. He was with Nian Zi all along, chatting and laughing together.
On her way back, Nian Zi got into Gu Qingheng's car and left with him.
Ning Qing and Jiang Rong sat in Ning's Bentley Continental, heading back first, while Ning Hai had other engagements.
As for Guan Shaoyu, I didn't pay attention to him because of his low official position.
On the bus.
Jiang Rong opened her mouth and asked: "Is the cheongsam a gift from Qingheng?"
Ning Qing wasn't clear either. Although there was a great possibility that it was Gu Qingheng who sent it, she refused to admit it: "It was Guan Shaobai who sent it."
Jiang Rong gave her a stern look, "You'd better hold onto Guan Shaoren tightly. Once you graduate from university in your fourth year, your father and I will immediately arrange the wedding between you and Guan Shaoren. At that time, all you need to do is be a good young mistress at the Guan's house, got it?"
"Got it, mom." Ning Qing replied.
