It was quite chaotic and noisy at Zhuque Street’s night market since it was a weekend. Tables and chairs were laid out everywhere and the street lights were dim. By the time Lu Chengzhou, Gu Mang, and Lu Yī arrived and got out of the car, it was already almost ten o’clock in the evening.
Gu Mang put her duckbill cap over her head and pressed it down low. Lu Chengzhou walked over to her side and put his arm over her shoulders as he escorted her through the crowd and into the store with Lu Yī following closely behind. When the trio arrived at the private room, Lin Shuang and the rest had just ordered a bunch of barbecue.
Jiangsui, who was already there, felt a bit overwhelmed when he saw Lu Chengzhou entering the room with Gu Mang. He had long wanted to find out who his boss was dating. When he heard that Gu Mang was dating Lu Chengzhou, he could not help but wonder if it was his money or his looks that had attracted her. She had promised to bring her beau along to have a meal with them, but it was only later that he found out through Gu Si that that person was Lu Chengzhou. It had taken him several sleepless nights to accept this earth-shattering news. As it turned out, the man who had successfully seduced his boss was not only so wealthy he was practically rolling in money, he also had drop-dead looks that left countless going crazy over him. Nevertheless, now that Jiangsui had finally met Lu Chengzhou, mixed emotions churned within him as he calmly stood up and greeted Gu Mang. "Sister Mang."
Nodding, Gu Mang looked at Lu Chengzhou before lifting her chin at Jiangsui. "You should know who he is." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"Young Master Lu." Jiangsui’s attitude toward Lu Chengzhou was not as respectful as it was towards Gu Mang.
Lu Chengzhou hummed in acknowledgement, rather curious about how the notorious incompent playboy of the Jiang family came to know his woman. After He Yidu and Qin Fang greeted them, everyone took their seats at the table.
Once again, Lin Shuang had generously brought two bottles of top quality red wine, so the group drank the red wine that was worth millions of dollars out of cheap beer glasses. Gu Mang had her chin propped up on her hand as she received a cup of wine from Lin Shuang. "Why are you here in the capital?"
Lin Shuang’s eyebrows rose as she clinked glasses with Gu Mang. "Didn’t you want me to enter into a marriage alliance with the He Corporation? So here I am."
Her reply rendered everyone speechless and it earned her a curious look from He Yidu.
Narrowing her eyes, Gu Mang twirled the glass in her hand and asked, "So this is your wedding banquet?"
