Chapter 124: Smiling On The Outside, Swearing On The Inside
When Xue Miqi saw that Zhong Qianqian was being affectionate with a man, she walked over in hopes that she would be introduced . However, she quickly saw Lin Xin bringing Ye Mengxi over . Thus, she stood to one side to avoid getting involved in the battle .
Zhong Qianqian dared to argue with Ye Mengxi, but she did not .
Zhong Qianqian was mad when she saw the impeccably dressed Ye Mengxi looking at Gu Mingzhe with heart in her eyes . She was openly flirting with him .
She was already mad with Zhong Nuannuan, but finally, she had stumbled upon a childhood sweetheart who was reliable and easy to talk to . Who would expect this fly to come out of nowhere and block her way .
However, Zhong Qianqian still needed to show her manners as an aristocratic missus . Therefore, she greeted them while suppressing the disgust in her heart . “Aunty Lin, this is my friend, Mingzhe . Bro Mingzhe, this is my mother’s close friend, Aunty Lin . ”
Zhong Qianqian purposely did not introduce Ye Mingxi . She also did not tell them Gu Mingzhe’s last name . This successfully stopped Lin Xin from saying her next sentence .
Gu Mingzhe smiled elegantly . “Aunty Lin . ”
“Hello! You’re Mingzhe, right? You’re so handsome . Are you from Jiang District as well? What’s your last name?”
Zhong Qianqian was smiling on the outside, but on the inside, she was screaming profanities . She wanted so badly to pour the juice in her hand onto this wretched woman .
“My last name is Gu . ”
“Aiya! The Gu Family used to be the top aristocrats in Jiang District but then they decided to move to Emperor District and became the aristocrat there . Could you be the young master of that same Gu Family?” Lin Xin had a shocked expression on her face .

Gu Mingzhe smiled and tacited admitted .
“Aiya, this is such good luck! Young Master Gu, can we sit down and have a drink?”
Zhong Qianqian’s face was dark . Gu Mingzhe noticed that she was unhappy, so with an elegant smile on his face, he rejected politely . “No, thanks . I haven’t seen Qianqian in five years, so we have a lot to talk about . Aunty Lin, please enjoy yourself . ”
After he said that, he nodded at Zhong Qianqian, signaling that they could leave .
Zhong Nuanuan almost melted when she saw that Gu Mingzhe did not allow those flies to come near her . He even stood behind her to block out the disturbance from those insistent pests . An elegant and imposing smile appeared on her face when she turned around and left .

Lin Xin was stunned . She looked at her daughter who was also feeling extremely aggrieved . Then, she suddenly threw caution to the wind and went over to block Zhong Qianqian’s way before suggesting with thick skin, “Qianqian, Lil Xi is your classmate . She doesn’t know anyone here but you . Why don’t you and Mingzhe take her to eat something?”
Zhong Qianqian was very annoyed by Lin Xin . She peered over to Xue Miqi and smiled . “Miqi, I have something to take care of with Bro Mingzhe . Why don’t you accompany Mengxi to eat something? Aunty Lin, this is Xue Miqi . She’s also our classmate . ”
“Alright . ” As Zhong Qianqian’s friend, Xue Miqi instantly agreed .
“Bro Mingzhe, let’s go . ”
“Alright . ”

She walked in front of Gu Mingzhe and changed the way she addressed him, now acting like she had known him forever . “Mingzhe, if I may be so bold to ask a favor . My husband is going to Emperor District for a business trip next month . You know how hard it is to do things in Emperor DIstrict, but since you’re an aristocrat form Jiang District and yet have such a good relationship with the Zhong family, I just wanted to ask you for a small favor . Don’t worry, after it’s done, we’ll definitely return the favor . I assume you and Qianqian haven’t eaten yet . Why don’t we sit down and chat for a bit?”
