“Hello, Mr. Gu. Hello, Mr. Lu,” Du Jiuyuan greeted the two of them formally.

Since things had come to this, she had no choice but to brace herself and accept everyone’s scrutiny and attention.

Gu Xingchen was not as surprised as Lu Ziang. He nodded his head to show his gentleness and elegance, displaying the charm of a mature man.

“Are my eyes playing tricks on me? Is this woman truly the one that they call the stupid Du Jiuyuan?” Lu Ziang approached Gu Xingchen and said in a voice that he thought no one else could hear.

“It seems like it’s time to release a piece of news about Lu Ziang’s nationwide marriage search. It’s rare for you to have the time to come out and socialize,” Ji Jingchen stared at Lu Ziang and said in a flat tone.

Lu Ziang instantly got as quiet as a mouse upon seeing a cat. “Don’t mention anything about that.”

In Hong Kong, the Lu family was ranked second only to the Ji family. Lu Ziang did not care about his family’s wealth and had insisted on entering the entertainment industry.

His father failed to persuade him, so he could only let Lu Ziang be. Before Lu Ziang became famous, his old father posted a national marriage proposal for him. At that time, all the socialites in Hong Kong who knew about Lu Ziang got very excited.

However, Lu Ziang quickly made the proposal disappear. He had now become a hot male celebrity in the entertainment industry. Many people found screenshots of the ads from back then and joked that they would have already been married to him if they found out about it earlier. Perhaps they would even have children already by now.

In Hong Kong’s socialite circle, Old Master Lu’s words had been circulating all the time. As long as one could marry Lu Ziang, they would not need to ask for anything else in their life anymore.

“Lu Ziang, Gu Xingchen, you know both of them. From now on, you can refer to Lu Ziang as Xiao Luzi.” Ji Jingchen officially introduced his friends to Du Jiuyuan. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

“Ji Jingchen, don’t push your luck!” Lu Ziang was so angry that his entire body trembled.

Du Jiuyuan could feel that Lu Ziang was hostile toward her, but why did Ji Jingchen call him Xiao Luzi? She became more puzzled.

“His surname is Lu,” Ji Jingchen immediately explained.

Du Jiuyuan finally understood. She looked at Lu Ziang as if to say, “I didn’t expect you to have such a nickname.”

She still remembered that He Lili often said, “If you want to marry, then marry Gu Xingchen. If you want to be sexually satisfied, then sleep with Lu Ziang.”.

Lu Ziang was a little depressed. Ji Jingchen had exposed his shortcomings without mercy. At this moment, he felt terribly embarrassed. All of his good mood was gone in an instant.

“Hmph.” Lu Ziang left with a glass of wine in his hand.

“Go and greet CEO Dong first. I’ll go and talk to Lu,” Gu Xingchen said as he looked at Lu Ziang’s back.

Then, he nodded to Du Jiuyuan before leaving politely.

Du Jiuyuan could feel Lu Ziang’s hostility, so she could naturally feel how kind Gu Xingchen is as well. She smiled lightly in response.

Ji Jingchen led Du Jiuyuan toward the birthday boy to greet him.

CEO Dong was a senior business person in the business world. He had even helped Ji Jingchen previously and taught him a lot. Therefore, Ji Jingchen respected him very much.

“CEO Dong, Madam Dong, this is my wife, Du Jiuyuan,” Ji Jingchen said concisely.

Du Jiuyuan did not expect Ji Jingchen to introduce her so formally. She was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted.

“Nice to meet you, CEO Dong. Nice to meet you, Madam Dong.” Although it was too late for Ji Jingchen to do all this now, Du Jiuyuan would still give him enough dignity and respect.

Today was CEO Dong’s sixtieth birthday. His sideburns were white and his face had aging spots.

After hearing Ji Jingchen’s introduction, he looked kindly at Du Jiuyuan.

“When I heard you said you were married, I thought you were trying to trick me. I didn’t expect it to be true. I even thought of introducing our daughter, Qing, to you,” CEO Dong said in a joyful tone.

Madam Dong smiled and glared at him. “You wish. How old is our girl? She’s unruly and willful, certainly not good enough for Jingchen. On the other hand, I see that Miss Jiuyuan here is a perfect match.”

“You flatter me, Madam Dong. I find your daughter to be so cute. Naturally, there will be a good match for her. As for me, I already have a beautiful woman by my side.” If Ji Jingchen was formally introducing Du Jiuyuan earlier, he was openly singing praises about her now.

CEO Dong’s status in Hong Kong’s business circle was very high, and there were plenty of people who came today. Presumably, from tomorrow onwards, there would no longer be any rumors about Ji Jingchen marital status anymore.

CEO Dong and Madam Dong looked at each other and smiled. They realized?that Ji Jingchen was finally enlightened. Otherwise, with his ice-cold appearance, it could be said that his marriage would be fraught with difficulties.

“Du Jiuyuan, judging from your tone, you don’t sound like a local.” Madam Dong started chatting with Du Jiuyuan.

Du Jiuyuan said, “I’m from Zhongshan. I came to Hong Kong at the age of 16.”

At the age of 16, Du Jiuyuan’s grandfather, whom she had relied on for a long time, passed away. Grandmother Ji had flown over personally to help with the funeral proceedings. She also brought Du Jiuyuan back to Hong Kong to be raised.

“What a coincidence. I’m also from Zhongshan. It’s a pity that I haven’t gone back for a long time.” Madam Dong’s eyes lit up with joy, followed by immense regret.

She had also come to Hong Kong at a young age.. It had been many years since she had returned to her hometown.
