Chapter 199 - Her Eyes Resemble Hers (9)
“Let me introduce her.” Wu Hao held his hand out across Xu Wennuan to gesture to Qin Zhi’ai, “This is my wife’s best friend, Qin Zhi’ai.”
After the introduction, Wu Hao turned around to give Qin Zhi’ai a smile and said, “Xiao’ai, this is Lu Bancheng. I just introduced him to Nuannuan.”
Qin Zhi’ai nodded and picked up the wine glass in front of her while standing up. She slightly clinked her glass with Lu Bancheng’s and said softly, “Mr. Lu, nice to meet you.”
“Nice you to meet you too, Miss Qin,” Lu Bancheng politely said to Qin Zhi’ai with a smile. He pulled the glass back and drank all of it. He acted like a real gentleman, not taking a seat until Qin Zhi’ai sat down.
Qin Zhi’ai didn’t know most of the people in the room, so Wu Hao introduced everyone to her starting from the person on his right. The last person he introduced was Gu Yusheng. “Xiao’ai, do you still remember Brother Sheng?”
Qin Zhi’ai nodded slightly. She was nervous and gripped the wine glass harder.
Wu Hao didn’t turn around to talk to Gu Yusheng until he saw Qin Zhi’ai nodding. “Bro Sheng, this is my wife’s best friend, Qin Zhi’ai, the one I mentioned to you last time.”
Gu Yusheng slowly looked up at Qin Zhi’ai as Wu Hao talked. He laid his eyes on hers and quietly stared into her eyes. It seemed like he was looking for something.
Qin Zhi’ai’s heart beat faster when she was being stared at by Gu Yusheng. She looked down and raised her wine glass to Gu Yusheng. She tried to cover her nervousness by greeting Gu Yusheng, “Hi, Mr. Gu.”
Lu Bancheng was still thinking about what Wu Hao had said and took a curious look at Wu Hao. He turned to Gu Yusheng and asked, “Last time? When? When did you guys get together without me?”
Gu Yusheng didn’t say anything and totally ignored Lu Bancheng. He slightly nodded at Qin Zhi’ai in greeting. He moved his gaze away from her face, but didn’t stand up to click his glass with hers. He only raised his glass up in the air and drank half of its contents as a way to greet Qin Zhi’ai.
Everyone started to talk about Wu Hao’s new business in Beijing.
Gu Yusheng had always been a quiet guy, while Lu Bancheng liked to talk. Therefore, when Gu Yusheng sat next to Lu Bancheng, he looked even quieter. He didn’t seem to talk at all the whole dinner.
They had arranged activities for the whole night, so they finished dinner quite early.
Qin Zhi’ai wanted to go home, but Xu Wennuan held onto her arm and asked her to go to the Majestic Clubhouse with her.
They hadn’t seen each other for a long time, so Qin Zhi’ai wanted to spend more time with Xu Wennuan. She thought she didn’t have anything important going on at home and agreed to go with her.
Since they all drank, Gu Yusheng and Lu Bancheng’s drivers each drove a van to take everyone to the Majestic Clubhouse.
Qin Zhi’ai, Xu Wennuan, Wuhao, and three other guys sat in one van, while the others took the other van.
When the van Qin Zhi’ai was in arrived at the Majestic Clubhouse, Gu Yusheng and the guys in the van had already gone to a party room and ordered drinks. Lu Bancheng was singing karaoke in the room.
