Chapter 800: Chapter 773: The Man with Serious OCD3
Beiming Han’s gaze was fixated on her, equally stunned by her beauty. This young girl was too exquisite, inciting in him a desire to present all the wonders of the world before her.
Rong Qianchen’s hand holding the wine glass continuously tightened, almost crushing the fragile goblet. The stabbing pain in his chest grew more prominent. He couldn’t understand why he was feeling this way. Was this what people referred to as jealousy? He, who never used to care for anyone or anything, was now experiencing jealousy just like an ordinary person.
The guests at the party also had their eyes locked on Gu Qingxin as she descended the stairs. They stared and stared, unable to tear their eyes away from her.
This girl was not only beautiful, but she also possessed a clean and crisp aura that was even more alluring.
The envious gazes of a few people lurking in the shadows were filled with malice, as if they were on the brink of insanity!
They wouldn’t accept this. In their eyes, Gu Qingxin was merely a commonplace girl. How did she manage to shine so brightly at such a grand event, and how did she even win the attention of the most distinguished man?
Gu Qingxin was unaccustomed to being the center of attention, so she quickly moved a few steps forward and silently arrived at Beiming Han’s side, turning towards him with somewhat nervous eyes.
Beiming Han was pleased by her little movements. He reached out and stroked her soft long hair, “Very beautiful.”
Bai Qianqian stood beside Gu Qingxin, clearly playing second fiddle. However, she felt happy for Gu Qingxin. She knew that she wasn’t as beautiful as Gu Qingxin, and didn’t carry the same spiritual energy. Yet, she was contented, supporting Gu Qingxin willingly.
She didn’t know that in the eyes of someone, no matter how radiant others could be, they couldn’t compare even slightly to her.
Rong Pinyan, with her daughter in tow, hid in a corner. Too ashamed to show her face, she pulled the frustrated Beiming Shasha into a room, “Shasha, today is an important day for your brother. For his reputation, you can’t cause any more trouble.”
Rong Pinyan’s heart was heavy. If it were something else, she could let Shasha do as she pleased. Even if Shasha threw tantrums at her grandfather’s birthday party, she could tolerate that. But today’s occasion was different. If anything went wrong, it would ruin her son’s dignity.
Now her heart was a mix of anxiety and fury. Yet there was little she could say. All she could do was placate her daughter and prevent her from causing a commotion.
“Mom, my brother gave the Heart of the Ocean to Gu Qingxin! Has he gone mad?” Beiming Shasha could not let go of this issue.
“You’re to blame for all this – if you hadn’t ruined that woman’s dress, would your brother need to do this? He’s just trying to calm everyone. You don’t understand anything!”
“But, that gem was supposed to be for my future sister-in-law!”
“Enough, it’s been given away, and in front of so many people. These material things are externalities. I’m warning you, you absolutely cannot cause any more trouble. Your brother will never let you attend any state banquets again.” Rong Pinyan was also feeling suffocated.
“What? How can I not be allowed to attend banquets? That would be too humiliating.” Beiming Shasha immediately protested.
Rong Pinyan felt like she was about to go mad, “We’ll discuss this later! Stay here and behave yourself!”
“By the way, Mommy, I can’t help but feel that cousin Qian Chen, who just returned to the Rong family, also has special feelings for Gu Qingxin?” Beiming Shasha asked.
“About that… I’m also not clear. After all, he’s only just returned to the Rong family recently, nobody knows much about him. Reflect on your behavior, I need to go. And remember, don’t act rashly again.” As the mother of Beiming Yu, Rong Pinyan had to appear at this kind of event.
