Chapter 1233 - Young Uncle
It was a banquet held at the national level, and naturally, it was no small matter.
Gong Yuning had already dressed up for tonight"s banquet at around five in the afternoon. Her bodyguard was standing by her side, not moving an inch away from her, attentively watching all activities related to them.
He Haiyi"s men also told He Haiyi about this. He thought that these bodyguards were He Lingchu"s, but he did not care, and only told them to start looking for opportunities to take action.
However, they did not know that beside Gong Yuning, there were invisible bodyguards that He Lingchu had sent out. Their target was this group of people who were following Gong Yuning, and if there were any movements, they would immediately rush forward to protect her.
He Lingchu"s convoy quickly arrived at the entrance, and He Lingchu personally went in to pick his up.
At this moment, Gong Yuning was sitting on the sofa, chatting with the Lady Boss. The Lady Boss was very appreciative of her conversation, moreover, Gong Yuning had given her some suggestions on the design of the evening gown, which made her extremely happy.
Gong Yuning"s suggestion was very new to her.
Hearing the sound of footsteps behind her, Gong Yuning couldn"t help but turn around. Unexpectedly, she b.u.mped into a pair of deep and gentle eyes, and her red lips curled up into a smile.
He Lingchu was also stunned by her dressing tonight. This girl, no matter what clothes and accessories he wore, they were all just to show off to her.
"He"s coming." Gong Yuning stood up, and the Lady Boss also stood up with a smile, "Miss Gong, come here for tea when you have time."
"Alright." Gong Yuning nodded and smiled.
He Lingchu"s eyes flashed with praise as well. Gong Yuning"s very easy-going personality was something that people would always like wherever he went.
He Lingchu held her hand, "Let"s go! There"s still half an hour, so don"t be late. "
"Alright." Gong Yuning went out with him, and Gong Yuning"s bodyguards immediately followed behind, escorting them in the direction of the banquet site.
The banquet was held in a hotel at the national level. Tonight, there were strict road bans and special forces were sent out to guard the hotel.
This was because those who entered this place tonight were all people with extremely high statuses in this country. Gong Yuning held onto He Lingchu, and the image of a handsome man and woman caused the bystanders to look at them uncontrollably.
The two of them handed in their invitation letters and entered the stage triumphantly. He Lingchu asked her, "What do you want to drink?"
"Champagne." Gong Yuning answered sweetly.
He Lingchu walked in front of a waiter and took a gla.s.s of champagne from the tray, giving it to her while holding onto a cup of red wine.
"Jun Gu is here too." He Lingchu said to her.
Gong Yuning smiled slightly, and thought, how good would it be if Gu Yue was here as well! Thus, the four of them would have company.
He Lingchu saw an elder, and held onto Gong Yuning"s hand, "Let"s go greet him, he"s an esteemed elder, a cla.s.smate of my father."
Gong Yuning nodded and walked with him to that elder.
"Uncle Feng, long time no see." He Lingchu smiled as he greeted his.
"It"s Ling Chu!" Long time no see, your old man and your dad have been fine lately! " Old Master Feng said.
"Everyone is safe." He Lingchu replied with a smile.
"Hey!" Who is this beautiful lady? "I"m not going to introduce him to Uncle Feng either."
"She"s my girlfriend, Gong Yuning." He Lingchu generously introduced.
Gong Yuning, who was standing at the side, felt a sweetness in her heart. She politely greeted, "h.e.l.lo, Uncle Feng."
"Good, what a talented couple!" "Looks like the He Clan will have some wedding wine soon."
He Lingchu and Gong Yuning looked at each other. Joy flashed in He Lingchu"s eyes, while Gong Yuning burrowed her face into his arm in embarra.s.sment.
"Uncle Feng, excuse me, I"m looking for my friend."
"Alright, go!"
He Lingchu and Gong Yu Ning were walking around the banquet hall leisurely. He had met many of his good friends, as a member of the younger generation, he was very famous in his country.
When He Lingchu suddenly saw someone, he was slightly startled. After his grandmother pa.s.sed away, the wife of his grandfather"s wife gave birth to a child who was only three years older than him. This year was around thirty years old, and as the young master of the current State of X, He Lingchu had not seen this little uncle of his for quite some time.
Without waiting for He Lingchu to greet them, a mature man who was standing in the middle of the group of people looked over. At the same time, he walked over gracefully from the crowd.
Gong Yuning was slightly startled, when she saw this tall man who had walked over, she miraculously discovered that in terms of appearance, he looked somewhat similar to He Lingchu.
Long and narrow eyelids, a nose that was also very proud, and facial features that were rarely seen among Eastern men.
However, this man"s body was emitting an aura that was even more intimidating than He Lingchu"s. Under his statue-like handsome appearance, there was a hidden sense of resolution and at the same time, a strong aura that came from a king of the imperial family.
While Gong Yuning was still surprised at this point, she heard the man call out in a low voice, "Ling Chu, it"s been a while. Have you been home recently?"
Towards this uncle of his, He Lingchu was like a relative that was separated by generations. His eyes still naturally revealed the respect of an elder, "Recently, he has been in the country."
"Come visit when you have time. Although my father is no longer here, we are still family." The man reached out and patted him on the shoulder.
Gong Yuning was stunned. Family? Is this a relative of He Lingchu"s mother"s? His cousin!
"Yes, Uncle." He Lingchu nodded.
At the side, Gong Yuning had just guessed that it was her cousin when she suddenly heard her uncle. She was immediately flabbergasted. What? The man in front of him was his uncle.
"This is?" Pan Lixin squinted, and looked at Gong Yuning with curiosity in his eyes.
"h.e.l.lo, my name is Gong Yuning, I"m Ling Chu"s girlfriend." Gong Yuning took the initiative to introduce himself. After all, this was an elder!
Pan Lixin could not help but be taken aback, and slightly narrowed her eyes. "Your surname is Gong? Was it from that very famous palace? Who is Gong Yexiao to you? "
Gong Yuning hesitated for a second before replying with a smile, "It"s my father."
Pan Lixin laughed in surprise, and looked at He Lingchu, "Ling Chu, what a good fortune."
He Lingchu"s gaze revealed traces of warmth on Gong Yuning"s face. He knew that anyone who was with her, and understood her ident.i.ty, would know that she was even more n.o.ble than him. To be together with her, he felt a kind of honour and grat.i.tude. " "Alright, I"ll go greet the guests. You guys have fun." After Pan Lixin finished speaking, he turned around and walked toward another group of guests who were waiting for him.
