1919: Mr Gu, You Are Finally Here

Mr Gu, You Are Finally Here

"Xiaoyu, you're being too polite."1

Mr Li watched as Tang Xiaoyu took the glass of champagne and downed it in one gulp. Her lips were as red as blood. In this venue, Tang Xiaoyu's eyes would follow Gu Zhengrong wherever he went.

Although he did not have any feelings for her, in his eyes, Tang Xiaoyu's feelings were tied to Gu Zhengrong. How could the person he once loved give up so easily?

"Mr Li, you have taught me many things. You are my benefactor and my master."

Looking at the man before her, Tang Xiaoyu's eyes lit up. She replaced the glass of champagne in her hand and the softness in her eyes melted into the alcohol. All the feelings she had for Gu Zhengrong also melted at this moment.

"Xiaoyu, Gu Zhengrong is here."

Mr Li said in a low voice as he watched Gu Zhengrong walk toward Tang Xiaoyu in his black coat. His eyes were filled with Tang Xiaoyu's silhouette.

"Okay."

Tang Xiaoyu's lips curled up as she replied softly, "Don't worry, Mr Li. I'm fine. So what if it's Gu Zhengrong? I, Tang Xiaoyu, have never cared about him."

"Xiaoyu, give me some face and let's have a good chat, okay?"

Gu Zhengrong walked to Tang Xiaoyu's side, his eyes filled with love and sincerity.

"What are we talking about? Mr Gu, what do you want to tell me? Is there anything you can't say here?"

Tang Xiaoyu looked askance at Gu Zhengrong, who was standing in front of her. Just like when they first met, he was still standing in her memory under the warm sun, she had already decided to forget the past.

"Xiaoyu, let's stop fooling around. It's been a long time since we last met. I don't know what you're thinking, but I just want to tell you that as long as you're willing to return to my side, we can start anew. As long as you're willing, I'm willing to listen to anything you say, anything…"

"Mr Gu, I think you've come to the wrong place today, right? This isn't what you think it is. Many people are trying their best to win today's bidding. Now that you mention it, won't it make people feel that there's something going on between us?"

Tang Xiaoyu gently swirled the champagne glass in her hand as she looked askance at Gu Zhengrong. Looking at Mr Li beside her, her voice suddenly became gentle. "Mr Li, shouldn't we prepare to enter the venue? If not, the bidding is going to start and if we are still standing outside, wouldn't we lose to those who already have a plan?"

"Sure, let's prepare to go in now."

Mr Li bent his left hand and motioned for Tang Xiaoyu to hold his arm as they walked into the bidding room.

Gu Zhengrong stood behind her and watched as Tang Xiaoyu hooked her arm around Mr Li's arm. The anger in his eyes was finally ignited.

"Tang Xiaoyu, I'll make you regret it today. I'll let you know that Mr Li can't give you everything. What I can give you is far more than what he can give you."

Gu Zhengrong stood at the same spot as his long coat slid across his broad shoulders.

"Mr Gu, why don't we go in too? If we don't, I'm afraid…"

"Alright, let's go in."

Just as he was about to drop his coat, his assistant caught it and held it in his hand.

"Mr Gu, you're finally here. Lady Mary has been waiting for you for a long time."

Standing at the door was a woman in a dark blue cheongsam. Although she was not as young as Tang Xiaoyu, she concealed her true age very well.

"Sister Qiu, I'm flattered by your words."

The corners of Gu Zhengrong's lips curled up as he watched Sister Qiu's eyes sweep across her full breasts. That breathtaking view was comparable to the one many women had.

"Ah, Mr Gu, you're the one who's making me sad. This isn't something you should say. Hurry up and come in. Lady Mary has been waiting for you for a long time. Hurry up and go in. If Lady Mary's patience runs out, it won't be good. If things go wrong, the final winner of today's bidding…"

Sister Qiu had a hidden meaning in her words. She looked at Gu Zhengrong with lust in her eyes, which gave Gu Zhengrong goosebumps.

"Sister Qiu, thank you for letting me meet Lady Mary today."

Gu Zhengrong walked forward and his gaze finally landed on Sister Qiu's full breasts. However, his gaze remained clear.

"Aiyo, Mr Gu, what are you saying?"

Sister Qiu walked forward and deliberately shook her hands in front of her. Her two round breasts made the assistant beside her stare blankly.

"Mr Gu, you think too highly of me. I'm just a humble character and there are so many guests from the wealthy families here today. I'm just trying to take advantage of your good fortune. Moreover, I can't control the fact that Lady Mary wants to see you. It's not even because you're capable of handling her, you should know that she is famous for being crafty and strict."

"Isn't this one of Sister Qiu's abilities?"

Gu Zhengrong took a few glances at Sister Qiu and his gaze finally returned to her face.

"Mr Gu, you really know how to talk. I finally know why Lady Mary wants to see you. Hurry up and stop wasting time with me, hurry up and go. If you really wait too long, it's hard to know what will the outcome be."

However, when Gu Zhengrong arrived at Lady Mary's room, Tang Xiaoyu was chatting happily with Lady Mary inside, sitting beside her. The two of them smiled as though they were good friends whom they had not met in a long time.

Gu Zhengrong stood at the door in a daze.

It was not easy for him to use Sister Qiu's influence to pull Lady Mary's strings. Just as he confidently thought that he was going to meet her, he saw Tang Xiaoyu.

"Mr Gu, why is Miss Tang here?"

The assistant blurted out the thorn in Gu Zhengrong's heart.

Gu Zhengrong did not know why Tang Xiaoyu was there too. The moment he saw Tang Xiaoyu, he forgot why he was here. Seeing how close Tang Xiaoyu and Lady Mary were, he stood at the door like a mute.

"Mr Gu, are we not going in?"
