Gu Yuan was brought into the venue by Nie Yu. The venue was decorated fashionably and gorgeously, and the atmosphere was full of excitement. At the beginning, they met a few people who knew Nie Yu and came up to say hello. While greeting him, they couldn’t help but look at Gu Yuan curiously.
Everyone knew that Young Master Nie was a playboy and changed girlfriends one after another. It was rare to hear that he was single now, so naturally some female artists thought that they may have hope. Who would have thought that they would suddenly see Young Master Nie coming over with a young girl on his arm.
This was unusual. They came forward to say hello and looked at Gu Yuan openly and covertly.
Nie Yu didn’t bother to pay attention to these looks, and took Gu Yuan directly through the special passage, which was unobstructed all the way and went directly to the lounge at the back.
In the special lounge, Nie Nanqing was having a friendly conversation with Luo Juntian.
At this time, Nie Nanqing had already learned Luo Juntian’s identity from his son. He was his son’s half-brother.
As a big shot in the entertainment industry, Nie Nanqing had of course known Luo Juntian for a long time. Even his group had cooperated with Luo Juntian many times. He admired this young man very much. Not only was he talented, but he was also upright and prudent in his work. He was a rare clear stream in the entertainment industry.
At this moment, he was looking at the young man in front of him, who was wearing a handsome grey suit and a black turtleneck sweater and looked dignified and elegant, with a decent smile on his lips. He had the demeanour of a gentle and modest gentleman. He was worthy of being Luo Juntian, the top traffic star in the entertainment industry.
He couldn’t help but think of his own son. There was no comparison, no comparison. When would his silly son grow up?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw his son coming in holding Gu Yuan’s arm.
He came in wearing a baggy red suit, looking exactly like the stupid son of a landlord.
Nie Nanqing shook his head secretly in his heart, but did not show it on his face. Instead, he hurried forward and greeted Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan was not familiar with Nie Nanqing before, and Nie Nanqing’s calmness always gave her a sense of being from a distant generation, so it was inevitable that they would feel awkward when they met. However, because of Nie Yu’s matter some time ago, the two of them came in contact more often, and occasionally when they talked, Nie Nanqing would even make a few jokes, so the distance between them gradually narrowed.
Nie Nanqing smiled and said, “Miss Gu, congratulations on finding another son! Your son is truly amazing. Mr. Luo is a genius who changed the pop music landscape back then. Now Mr. Luo’s acting skills and character are both top-notch in the industry. In the entertainment industry, there won’t be another one like him in another three hundred years.”
Luo Juntian heard this and said with a smile: “Uncle Nie is joking.”
Nie Nanqing was full of emotion: “I’m not kidding. We are all family. Let’s not talk behind each other’s backs. Mr. Luo is very outstanding in every aspect. I really envy your father. It’s a pity that I, Nie Nanqing——”
Having said this, he looked at his son and stopped talking.
The atmosphere turned slightly awkward.
Nie Yu didn’t care. He was used to his father’s dislike for him. There was nothing he could do. Just like water and oil could never mix, he and his father just couldn’t get along.
Shrugging lazily, Nie Yu said, “Dad, if everything is ok, I’ll go out and take a look first.”
Although this charity night was naturally managed by a professional manager, as the host, it was not easy for someone from the Nie family not to show up.
Nie Nanqing nodded: “Okay, be alert and don’t be so careless. Be polite when you see the elder guests coming over.”
Nie Yu couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows in a slightly mocking manner when he heard what his father said. It sounded like he was a child.
He should be polite when meeting elders, didn’t he know how?
So in his father’s eyes, Ji Qisen was a good son, and even the newcomer Luo Juntian was a good son. Only Nie Yu could never be a good son.
Seeing this, Luo Juntian first gave Gu Yuan some instructions on what to pay attention to during this charity night, and then found an excuse to leave.
Gu Yuan wanted to go out, but Nie Nanqing asked about the whereabouts of her other sons and kindly asked, “Do you need my help to look for them?”
Gu Yuan smiled and said, “Thank you, Mr. Nie, but it’s not necessary. In fact, Qisen has been helping me find them. Now I have come into contact with Doctor Luo and Juntian, and they have also provided me with some information. The whereabouts of the seventeen-year-old son has been found, but he is participating in a closed-door confidential project and cannot be contacted for the time being. When he comes out of seclusion, Qisen would contact him. As for the other one–“
At this point, Gu Yuan sighed, “The other one, I heard from Doctor Luo that he was actually very young, only four years old. At that time, his father’s friend was in charge of this matter. During the operation, the other party’s identity was kept completely confidential, so the institute did not have the other party’s true identity information. I think the other party should not want others to know some things. If so, then I don’t want to look for him.”
After all, the other party only used her own eggs, which was probably equivalent to a man donating sperm.
Since the donation had already been made, if the other party wanted to acknowledge her, then she would acknowledge them. If the other party did not want to acknowledge her and wanted to keep it secret, then there was no reason for her to infringe on others’ rights.
Maybe the other party was a couple with the woman being infertile, or even a well-known person. Wouldn’t her appearance simply add to their embarrassment and distress, and possibly even cause trouble to their lives?
Nie Nanqing nodded in agreement: “Yes, yes, yes, if the other party wants to keep this matter a secret, there is really no need to look for them. Miss Gu is really thoughtful!”
The two people here were talking awkwardly and appropriately. Outside, Nie Yu greeted some celebrities who came. When he turned around, he happened to see Luo Juntian. He immediately remembered what his father had just said.
It was impossible to stop the admiration that his Dad expressed for Luo Juntian in his words.
Hehe…
Luo Juntian looked at Nie Yu’s carefree look and naturally understood what this little brother was thinking. He smiled and sighed, “Why, third brother, are you unhappy when you see Uncle Nie praising me?”
Nie Yu’s original smile suddenly subsided, and he snorted: “I’m unhappy? Who said that? Do you think I care about these?”
Luo Juntian’s eyebrows moved slightly, and he said with a smile: “Really? You don’t care?”
Nie Yu looked at Luo Juntian and suddenly had an urge to slap Luo Juntian in the face to break his smile.
But of course he couldn’t do that. Being angry and impulsive would only mean that he was at a disadvantage.
So he smiled, a flamboyant and carefree smile, and said with a smile: “Luo Juntian, you may think that you are smart, talented, gentle and considerate, but so what, in my mother’s heart, Ji Qisen and I are still more important, and you just came later.”
As he spoke, he raised his wrist, revealing a double-sided gold crystal cufflink on his sleeve. The glittering gold matched with the perfectly tailored and stunning red suit, which was gorgeous, fashionable and elegant.
“This is my birthday gift from my mom. Very tasteful, isn’t it?”
After saying that, Nie Yu put his hands in his pockets and left in a leisurely manner.
It was indeed a bit awkward for Gu Yuan and Nie Nanqing to talk. Obviously, a mature and steady entrepreneur and a young girl were discussing their son’s problem together. The two were not familiar with each other and felt uncomfortable saying more than one word.
But Nie Nanqing seemed to be quite talkative today. He asked her about her filming in a friendly manner and talked to her about the career planning of a female artist, which forced Gu Yuan to listen carefully.
After a lot of effort, Gu Yuan finally managed to slip out. Who knew Nie Nanqing still looked unsatisfied: “If you have any questions, you can ask them on WeChat. I also post on Moments frequently. We can communicate more.”
Gu Yuan was ashamed.
Why did Nie Nanqing feel that she and him had a lot to talk about? Didn’t he feel uncomfortable? Nie Nanqing did often like her Moments and would seriously praise her when she occasionally posted photos, but she rarely saw him post any Moments. Gu Yuan thought, for the sake of reciprocity, it seemed that she should also like more.
As she was walking, she ran into Camille.
As soon as Camille saw Gu Yuan, she rushed over enthusiastically: “Wow, Gu Yuan, it’s so nice to see you. I heard from Master Nie that you were coming, and I said I would look for you. I didn’t expect to run into you by such a coincidence!”
And the person who came with Camille was Ji Zhentian.
Camille was so moved that she almost cried: “Gu Yuan, thank you, thank you! It’s a relief to meet you!”
Gu Yuan: “What happened? Why do I feel like I’ve become someone’s saviour?”
Camille glanced at Ji Zhentian who had already left, and then she started to complain. It turned out that Ji Zhentian was now so obsessed with her that he not only sent her WeChat messages twice a day, but also often flew over to see her. And this time at the BAZARILLA CHARITY GALA, he even insisted on coming to accompany her, acting like an attentive and considerate boyfriend.
Gu Yuan smiled: “This… this is also good…”
Gu Yuan wanted to laugh even more: “Then reject him.”
Camille: “I did, but he said that it was his business if he pursued me, and it was my business if I rejected him. Besides, he is quite a gentleman and does not pester me. I also do not dare to offend him too much.”
So things turned out like this, she was so pitiful and helpless.
As they were talking, Nie Yu came over from the other side, with his hands in his pockets and his head hung low, looking a little lost.
Camille quickly said hello to Nie Yu, and then left in a hurry: “Your son may have something to ask you, I’ll go and get busy first.”
Gu Yuan looked at Nie Yu’s droopy appearance as he was hit by frost, and wondered, “What happened?”
Nie Yu raised his head, his short, slightly curly hair hanging down on his forehead. Although he was already a grown-up, he pursed his lips, his cheeks slightly pouting, and his pair of light brown eyes looked at him quietly.
Gu Yuan’s heart trembled. For some reason, she felt that her son was pitiful, like a wronged child.
She softened her voice unconsciously: “Nie Yu, what’s wrong with you?”
Nie Yu’s tone was lazy and gentle: “Mom, am I a very disappointing person?”
