Chapter 670: Attending the Banquet
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The maid was actually already prepared to be rejected because someone had told her before she came that Gu Man would most likely refuse, and they had already prepared a plan B.
However, she did not expect Gu Man to cooperate unexpectedly. She nodded and agreed.
The maid was a little surprised, but she also revealed a happy expression. In that case, she did not have to be blamed anymore.
Gu Man closed the door with a bang. She closed her eyes and pondered for a moment. Then, she walked out bare-faced. She was even dressed simply.
In any case, she would definitely not be a.s.sociated as a Missy.
Gu Yuan looked at Gu Man’s fl.u.s.tered and exasperated appearance, but what puzzled Gu Man was that Gu Yuan only stared at her a few times and did not say anything.
Her thin eyelids were half-closed, and she looked especially harmless while deep in thought.
Looking at her appearance, Gu Rou felt jealous.
Gu Man did not look like she was dressed up at all. She was even more stunning than when she was dressed up. She even looked as faint as a chrysanthemum.
However, she thought of something and the expression on Gu Ron’s face instantly became good. She even gloated.
She insisted on dressing up so outstandingly because she wanted to attract that person’s attention. It was just nice, but he might not have seen such a beauty before. It was also possible that he would take a fancy to Gu Man because of this opportunity, saving them the trouble of trying their best to recommend her.
Gu Rou walked to the front. When she pa.s.sed by Gu Man, she even revealed a regretful expression.
The family got into the car and quickly arrived at an extremely luxurious hotel.
As if to show the owner’s wealth, even the direction of the shop’s entrance was embedded with gold. The entire hotel revealed the words “Glorious”.
Gu Man was dressed in casual clothes and looked completely different from the others in formal attire. However, her exquisite workmanship and aura were very eye-catching.
Therefore, even without wearing formal clothes, she could easily attract the attention of others.
Or perhaps it was because she was not wearing a formal suit that she was even more eye-catching.
Because the other members of the Gu family had their own circles, they basically dispersed and went to their own circles, leaving Gu Man alone.
However, she had never been interested in these occasions. She found a random place and started to taste the pastries.
Many of the men raised their gla.s.ses and wanted to drink with Gu Man, annoying her. She glanced over coldly, making those l.u.s.tful men stop thinking.
Just as Gu Man got closer, she saw Gu Yuan bringing an obviously old man over.
The old man was different from Old Master Cui and the others. His hair was white and extremely loose. There were age spots on his face that only belonged to old people. His body was flabby and droopy. When he approached, she could smell a nauseating smell.
That was the combination of the smell of an old man and the stench. She wondered how long it had been since the person in front of her had taken a shower.
It was hard for Gu Yuan to stand beside him and still have to try his best to disguise his expression.
“Old Master Li, do you like her?” Gu Yuan lowered his voice and whispered into Old Master Li’s ear.
He thought that his voice was soft enough, so he did not expect Gu Man to be a cultivator. Her five senses were more sensitive. Although she was a distance away, she could clearly hear Gu Yuan’s voice.
Disgust immediately appeared in her eyes. Was Gu Yuan planning to sell his daughter? No wonder he insisted on her coming back in a panic. It seemed like he wanted to use her to make some kind of deal.
Old Master Li’s eyes were filled with greed and l.u.s.t. He did not even look in Gu Yuan’s direction and nodded in a panic, showing impatience on his face.
Gu Yuan was also overjoyed, but just as Old Master Li was about to go over, he grabbed him.
Under Old Master Li’s dissatisfied gaze, Gu Yuan explained, “Old Master Li, you’ve forgotten that it’s not the right time yet. You have to choose a happy day.”
She wondered if Old Master Li believed superst.i.tions. When he heard Gu Yuan’s words, the desire in his eyes instantly disappeared..
