Chapter 613: Chapter 700: Hello, My Name Is Gu Liancheng
A meter behind Shi Yu, Gu Liancheng stopped in his tracks.
Gazing at the stunning figure ahead, she called out, "Yu."
Shi Yu, engaged in conversation with a few business partners, heard the voice, his eyebrows slightly furrowing before turning around.
His gaze had just met Gu Liancheng when she broke into a smile, "Do you remember me?"
"I don’t."
The indifferent demeanor was typical of Shi Yu’s interactions with others.
Gu Liancheng’s mood did not shift from his words; she lowered her eyelids slightly, then looked up at him again, smiling as she said, "I’m Gu Liancheng. Six years ago, we met once."
Six years ago, Gu Liancheng was only nineteen. It was when Ye Jin had just risen from mistress to a more public role, going to the Shi Family for the first time, and she brought her along.
The events of that time were still crystal clear in her memory.
Because her aunt had meddled, he and his father, her current uncle-in-law Shi Yaoguang, had fallen out.
At the time, she hadn’t grasped the seriousness of the situation because she believed that even if there were deep grudges between a father and son, they would gradually dissipate over time.
Yet, unexpectedly, after six years, their estrangement had only deepened, developing into the profoundly rooted state it was in now.
"I don’t remember."
Those three cold words were like a bucket of icy water poured over her, chilling Gu Liancheng to the bone.
"Since you don’t remember, let’s get acquainted again." Gu Liancheng smiled sweetly, and then extended her hand, "Hello, my name is Gu Liancheng."
Shi Yu held a wine glass in one hand and his other hand in his pocket, unmoving, as if his stance was a message to her that he did not enjoy shaking hands with strangers.
Gu Liancheng’s hand hung mid-air, but she still maintained her bright smile, clear and pure.
"Hello, I’m Gu Liancheng."
She repeated it once more, her voice tranquilly unvarying, a glimmer of amusement in her eyes, seemingly unaffected by the situation.
Just then, a fair hand grasped Gu Liancheng’s.
As Gu Liancheng looked on in mild surprise, a woman dressed in a black evening gown stopped before her.
"Hello, I’m Shen Cheng."
The voice, as pleasing and clear as the woman herself, was neat, bold, and straightforward.
Waist-length hair was swept high, fluttering in the wind, a few stray strands by her cheek adding a touch of disheveled beauty.
The black gown wrapped her elegant figure, contrasting against her fair skin, conveying an indescribable beauty.
Under the sun, Shen Cheng’s eyes slightly narrowed, her hand holding Gu Liancheng’s, gazing at her sideways with a relaxed and comfortable posture, resembling a languid little wildcat.
Gu Liancheng had never met Shen Cheng, but she had heard Ye Jin mention her figure and appearance more than once, even providing an accurate height.
Her name was Shen Cheng, making her identity quite clear.
"Miss Shen, you look beautiful today."
Gu Liancheng didn’t give insincere compliments, for she genuinely found Shen Cheng stunning, whether it was from her attire or her makeup-free face that was still undeniably gorgeous, all deserving of the descriptor "beauty."
Perhaps the title of the most beautiful being replaced by such a perfect woman was a consolation to her.
Shen Cheng retracted her hand gracefully and said with a light laugh, "That’s because you didn’t see me yesterday."
