Chapter 99: Bickering with Feng Pei
Two years ago, Gu Chu and her father came here once. It was summer at that time, but as soon as she entered the door, she felt the coolness of early autumn. At that time, she thought it was strange. How did they do that?
She wanted to ask, but then a friend of her father came up to them so she didn’t get to ask.
Now that she thought about it, this club probably liked to go against the seasons to differentiate itself from the other clubs. In the summer, it displayed the autumn scene, and in the autumn, it displayed the summer scene. This way, every customer who entered the club would feel different.
The waiter silently led the way. Gu Chu asked Feng Jia casually, “Do you come here often?”
Feng Jia replied, “Not really.”
“They have made it more difficult for people to join now, right? I’m afraid that I’m still not rich enough.”
Feng Jia lowered his eyes. “How much do you need? I can help you make up for it.”
Gu Chu smiled. “Are you planning to give me the shares of the Feng Corporation?”
Feng Jia said gently, “As a betrothal gift.”
Gu Chu curled her lips. He was nice today. He had given her a gown, earrings, and now a betrothal gift. She even wondered if he had taken the wrong medicine today?
“You’re so good at talking today?”
“Everyone knows how to say these things. It depends on whether I want to say it or not.”
“…”
Does that mean he didn’t want to say it before?
When they arrived at the banquet hall, there were already quite a number of guests.
Feng Jia’s presence could not be ignored no matter where he went. Someone recognized him the moment he appeared and ran over to greet him. He politely and distantly socialized with them.
Gu Chu was also used to attending events like these. She was not afraid at all when everyone’s gaze fell on her. He suddenly lowered his head and whispered into her ear, “I’m going to take a call.”
After he left, she chatted with the others and went to look for Chairman Wang.
In the end, she did not find him, but she was surprised to see someone else.
Someone who was not supposed to be here.
She narrowed her eyes and walked over.
The teenage girl was wearing a white strapless dress. Her appearance, which was similar to Feng Jia’s, made her stand out in the crowd.
Gu Chu stood behind her and patted her shoulder.
She turned around and was shocked. “Why are you here?”
Gu Chu looked at her with a faint smile. “I’m an adult. Compared to you, a minor, it makes more sense for me to be here.”
Feng Pei was annoyed. “None of your business.”
Gu Chu spoke slowly. “Why don’t we go and ask grandpa?”
Feng Pei was actually interested in this well-known club and begged her brother to bring her along. He refused, so she found a friend who was qualified to bring her in. Before they even started, she was caught red-handed by Gu Chu.
She had never liked her, and when she saw that she was using Old Master Feng to threaten her again, she became even more displeased.
“Don’t think that you can control me just because grandpa likes you. Let me tell you, I won’t fall for your tricks.”
“Elder sister-in-law is like a mother. I’m sorry, but there’s a high chance that I’ll become your elder sister-in-law, so it’s only right for me to control you.”
Did she really think that she wanted to control her? If this was really her daughter, she would have long been punished.
Feng Jia had just returned from the phone call.
Gu Chu’s gaze indicated that Feng Pei was here as well.
Feng Jia frowned and went behind Feng Pei.
Feng Pei looked at Gu Chu who was dressed up beautifully and gritted her teeth in hatred. This woman was really annoying!
“You can get a divorce even if you’re married. You’re not even married yet. Why are you so smug?”
Gu Chu frowned in distress. “Why don’t you like me? Tell me, maybe I can change?”
“No need! No matter how much you change, I won’t like you!”
Feng Jia suddenly spoke from behind her. “Feng Pei, where are your manners?”
Feng Pei turned her head abruptly and saw a cold and frosty face. She immediately retracted her fangs and called out shakily, “Br-Brother?”
Gu Chu casually sat on the high chair and smiled sweetly. “I forgot to tell you that I came with your brother. Feng Jia, you heard it. I didn’t scold her because of you, but she didn’t appreciate it at all.”
“You don’t have to do it for me in the future. You can scold her however you want,” Feng Jia said.
Gu Chu then brushed the hair beside her ear. “I think that’s not appropriate, right? I haven’t even entered the family yet. If word gets out, I’ll be criticized. At that time, the Feng family’s reputation will be dragged down by me again. You’ll be put in a difficult position.”
