Just as Gu Qingchen was staring at Rong Yu in a daze, Rong Yu met Gu Qingchen’s gaze and smiled at her. His smile was still as alluring as ever, but she could see a hint of smoke from it!

That glance seemed to have triggered Gu Qingchen’s alert. Once again, Gu Qingchen felt that Rong Yu was a demon-like figure. He could make people lose their guard against him unknowingly. Then, he would crush his opponent bit by bit and completely devour him.

Gu Qingchen even felt that Rong Yu must have known about the thoughts of the Rong family. The reason why these people could still jump around so happily was probably because Rong Yu did not care about attacking them at all!

Gu Qingchen quickly withdrew her gaze from Rong Yu and did not show any emotion. Rong Yu was too powerful. She could not read Rong Yu’s thoughts, but it did not mean that Rong Yu could not read her thoughts.

Rong Cheng kept a bitter face and said, “Uncles, take your time.” Then he left first.

He had to find his mother. Rong Qingtian could only be persuaded through soft approach. His mother was still doted by Rong Qingtian. At least, she was better than the previous two wives. It seemed that he needed his mother to resolve this matter.

Although Rong Rui did not come over, he was standing not far away. He had been paying attention to the situation here. When he saw Rong Cheng’s sad face, he asked, “Brother Cheng, what happened to you?”

Rong Rui was usually very good to Rong Cheng, so Rong Cheng did not guard against Rong Rui. “It’s all because of that d*mn girl. She actually reported me in front of father and a few other guys. She embarrassed me!”

Rong Rui’s eyes flashed slightly, and he continued, “Hehe, it’s just a little girl. Uncle is so wise. He won’t scold you because of her few words.”

“Hmph! Don’t talk to me about that stinky girl. If it wasn’t for her, father wouldn’t have refused to let me into the Rong Group!”

Because he wasn’t prepared, Rong Cheng blurted out.

When Rong Rui heard this, a bright light flashed in his eyes and was quickly seen again. He only said with a look of surprise, “How could it be like this? You have always been so capable. This punishment is too severe.”

“Exactly! I don’t know what kind of enchantment father was given by that wretched girl, and that old fart Chen Yu. If it weren’t for his words, father wouldn’t have punished me so severely!”

Rong Cheng had just been bullied by Rong Qingtian. Hearing that Rong Rui supported him, his mood was much better, but he still couldn’t get over his anger and felt sullen.

“Sigh, who asked you to offend Young Master Rong’s personal physician? Everyone knows that Mr. Chen admires Young Master Rong the most.”

Rong Rui’s tone carried a hint of a helplessness, as if he was only stating a fact. However, he succeeded in shifting the target of Rong Cheng’s hatred from Gu Qingchen to Rong Yu.

That’s right, what Rong Rui said was right. All of this was because of Rong Yu. If it wasn’t for Rong Yu, Gu Qingchen was just a nobody. If it wasn’t for Rong Yu, and that old fart Chen Yu wouldn’t have his finger in the pie.

Seeing the hatred in Rong Cheng’s eyes, Rong Rui sneered in his heart, but he said, “Everyone can see that eldest uncle has always wanted to hand over the Rong Group to Young Master Rong. It’s a pity that he’s not in good health. Otherwise, eldest uncle would have already handed over the Rong Group to him right now. You offended Young Master Rong’s personal physician, so eldest uncle would naturally be angry.”

These words were undoubtedly like a match which ignited the rage of Rong Cheng.

“Why! Rong Yu is just a person who is about to die. What right does he have to inherit the Rong Group!”

Rong Cheng was young after all, and his thoughts were not as profound as Rong Rui’s. After being provoked like this, he was not afraid to speak.

However, Rong Rui spoke, “That may not be the case. I heard that this Doctor Gu’s medical skills are even better than her master’s. Who knows, she might really be able to cure Young Master Rong’s illness. Even if she can’t cure him… You have already said that young master Rong is just a person who is about to die…”

The last few words dragged on for a long time. Rong Cheng also realized that Rong Yu was just a dying man, but he was not dead yet!

When this thought jumped into his mind, Rong Cheng felt a little uneasy and his heart was beating a little fast. In that moment, he had an idea. If Rong Yu would not have inherit the Rong Group if he dead.

Knowing he had achieved his goal, Rong Rui did not say anything more. He just smiled and said, “The dance is going to start in a while. Since you have just offended Doctor Gu, why don’t you ask her to dance with you later as an apology?”

Rong Cheng raised his head arrogantly. “Humph, ask her to dance? It would be weird if a little doctor like her could dance!”

Rong Rui smiled but did not say anything. Rong Cheng was stunned at first, but his eyes soon lit up. There was finally a smile on his face, but it was just an evil smile.

“Hehe, that’s right. I’ll ask her to dance as an ‘apology’!”

Over here, after Rong Cheng left, Rong Yu introduced these high and powerful people to Gu Qingchen. Gu Qingchen also nodded and greeted them in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. There was not a trace of cowardice in her at all.

Her temperament was very outstanding, not inferior to those rich and powerful daughters.

They even felt that Gu Qingchen was even more indifferent and imposing than those rich and powerful daughters.

After all, they were all top-notch figures in the business world. When those rich and powerful daughters saw them, those young daughters would still have a kind of respect in their bones despite how calm they looked on the outside.

However, Gu Qingchen was different. When she stood here and interacted with them, she gave them a sense of equality.

There was no trace of being petty in her words and actions. Although she rarely spoke, some of the words she said were very profound.

“Doctor Gu, forgive me for being presumptuous. There must be someone in your family who is also in the business industry. It’s rare that you have such thoughts on business.”

Liu Lianzong rarely spoke to strangers. He did not expect that he would take the initiative to ask Gu Qingchen about this.

Gu Qingchen’s expression did not change. The corners of her lips were always slightly curved. “I only know a little. It’s nothing that impressive.”

However, Liu Lianzong shook his head. “You know more than just a little. Even I, a person who has been in business for many years, am impressed by your way of thinking.”

Gu Qingchen was not at all curious about this. After all, she had been reborn from the future, so her way of thinking was naturally more innovative than modern people.

“Uncle Liu, you really have sharp eyes. My personal physician is also an expert in business. Do you know about the Jiang Jewelry Store in City Y?”

They were all people in this circle. Although the Jiang Jewelry Store was not in their eyes and was not on the same level as them, they naturally knew about the news in the circle.

“What does the Jiang Jewelry Store have to do with this?”

Luo Xi was also a little curious. Could this girl be a member of the Jiang Family? But her surname was not Jiang.

Rong Yu smiled slightly and said casually, “Now the Jiang Jewelry Store belongs to Doctor Gu.”

Ah?

So that was the case!

Liu Lianzong came to a sudden realization and was slightly surprised. “So it was you who bought the Jiang Jewelry Store. You’re really better than me!”
