C1

Golden Age Hotel.

The main hall on the first floor was filled with guests. Business celebrities were gathered together to chat. They came and went, bustling with noise and excitement.

Gu Anning changed into a set attire, came out of the changing room, and looked at his reflection in the mirror. His calm and clear eyes revealed a hint of a smile of satisfaction.

"Miss Gu, you are really beautiful today." The clothing master looked at Gu Anning from head to toe, nodding his head repeatedly with a face full of admiration.

Gu Anning slightly curled his lips, lightly smiled, and glanced at her without saying a word.

Hearing that Young Master Qin had personally chosen this set of clothes, the clothing master looked at Gu Anning, who was full of smiles. He still wanted to say something, but a series of knocks sounded out from outside the door.

Gu Anning glanced at the door, following the voice, "Come in."

"Miss Gu." The butler wore a black tailcoat and stood respectfully by the door. "It's time, you may leave now."

Gu Anning responded as he lowered his head to straighten his skirt. The corner of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a perfect smile as he followed the butler downstairs.

The hall was filled with people. Although Gu Anning did not know them, he could guess that they were all his Qin and Gu Family's friends that lived in the mall. She smiled decently, walked to Qin Kun's side at a leisurely pace, and did not see him.

"Uncle." Gu Anning glanced at Qin Kun. He originally wanted to ask Qin Shikai where he was, but after seeing everyone in the hall, he bit her lips and swallowed the words that were on her lips.

Qin Kun looked kindly at Gu Anning, and nodded, facing the rest: "Everyone, today is the great wedding day between Shikai and An Ran, I am glad that everyone is able to find some time to come, and I thank everyone here first."

All of them were curious as to why Qin Shikai did not reveal himself, but because of Qin Kun's identity, none of them dared to directly ask about it. Hence, the originally quiet hall was now filled with the sounds of discussions.

Qin Kun's cloudy eyes flashed with displeasure, he cleared his throat and continued: The company has some urgent matters, I am afraid Shikai will arrive a little later, I hope that everyone will...

"Creak ~ ~" Before Qin Kun even finished speaking, the originally tightly shut door was pushed open from the outside, and let out an ear-piercing and sharp sound. Everyone in the hall stopped, and looked back as they realized what had happened.

Two tall and broad iron doors were slowly pushed open, and a few young men in black suits stood at the entrance.

The people in the hall were stunned by the sudden situation. After a while, they reacted and began to talk in low voices.

Qin Kun frowned, and looked at the butler beside him: "What's the situation?"

How could the butler know? He raised his hand to wipe away the sweat on his forehead and said nervously, "I'll go take a look."

Just as he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps sounded out from outside the hall.

Someone among the guests suddenly shouted excitedly: "Could it be Young Master Qin?"

Today was Young Master Qin's engagement day. It wasn't impossible to surprise his fiancee on such a day.

When Gu Anning heard this, his heart stirred. A trace of surprise flashed past his clear black eyes.

Lin Mufan put one hand in his pocket. He was only wearing a simple white shirt, the top two buttons were undone, revealing a sexy collarbone, the sleeves had been rolled up to his wrists, revealing a strong and fair wrist. He had a young and handsome face, with jet-black eyebrows and long eyes.

He had just walked to the door when someone in the hall recognized him. "Lin …" Lam Tung! "

Lin Mufan did not bother about him, and continued to walk forward, looking straight ahead. It was unknown if it was because of the imposing aura he gave off, but the guests who were originally surrounding him, were all automatically making way for him.

Lin Mufan stood still in front of Qin Kun, and slowly curled his lips: "Old Man Qin."

Qin Kun glanced at Lin Mufan in displeasure. Although he was not satisfied with his sudden appearance, he was, after all, the CEO of the Lin's disease.

Lin Mufan stared fixedly at Gu Anning who was beside Qin Kun. Today, she was wearing a bra dress, revealing his exquisite collarbones, fair skin, and exquisite facial features. His pair of black eyes were like two gems, glistening under the light.

She was a lot prettier than she was six years ago.

Lin Mufan calmly curled his lips and revealed a satisfied smile.

After hearing Qin Kun's words, he retracted his gaze and spoke without hurry: "Old Man Qin is mistaken," He narrowed his long and narrow eyes, and spoke with a light tone, "The reason why I'm here today, is because I want to tell everyone that Chairman Qin won't be able to come today!"

He indifferently swept everyone with his gaze as he spoke word by word.

This sentence was no different from a bomb. When the guests heard this, they began to discuss among themselves.

Qin Kun frowned, he was instantly unhappy, and looked at Lin Mufan angrily: "Lam Tung, I do not understand what you mean?"

"Don't be impatient." Lin Mufan laughed, took two steps back, looked at Qin Kun and said, "I will make you understand."

After that, she turned to Gu Anning and smiled. Gu Anning was confused by his smile, his eyebrows furrowed as he looked at him in puzzlement.

Lin Mufan's handsome face had a confident smile on it, he extended his hand towards the assistant beside him, and the young assistant immediately passed the documents over to him.

"There is a shortfall in Qin Group's funding. Chairman Qin has been taken away by the authorities to investigate."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "Hua" sound, and the hall immediately went into an uproar. The pressure from earlier was no longer present, and the guests were all curious as to whether the news Lam Tung brought was real or fake.

Qin Kun's face changed as he retorted with an ashen face, "Nonsense! No matter what, the Lam Tung is still the person in charge of the Lin Group, he actually slandered our Qin family! "

"Is that so?" Lin Mufan remained calm, and a faint smile appeared on his face that made people grind their teeth, "This is evidence that there is a gap in the Qin Group's funds, if Old Qin and the others present do not believe it, I can give each of you a copy to see if it is real."

He was still chuckling. He looked innocent and harmless, but it sent chills down everyone's spines. He added, without holding back, "I have a lot of them in my car."

"You …" Qin Kun was immediately angered speechless. Although the guests were shocked by the news, since Qin Kun was present, they did not dare to step forward to question him. They could only look at him in shock.

It had always been said that the Qin family and the Lin's disease did not get along, but now it seemed that there was really something going on.

As for Lin Mufan, under everyone's astonished gaze, he walked a few steps towards the startled Gu Anning.

Gu Anning didn't think that Lin Mufan would suddenly come closer to him. Glaring at the pair of round, black eyes, he raised his head and looked at him, yet unintentionally bumped into those eyes which still carried a smile on them.

His clear eyes were like a black bottomless pit, forcefully sucking her in. When she finally reacted, he had already wrapped his waist around her and pulled her into his embrace.

The tip of his nose was filled with the refreshing scent of a man, even though there was a thin layer of cloth covering his body, Gu Anning could still feel the boiling heat coming from his body. Gu Anning's heart was in a mess, his heart was beating erratically, he subconsciously reached out to push her away, but the person leaned over and said: "Hey, your fiance is going to jail, why don't you follow me?"

His voice was magnetic and deep. Everyone present could clearly hear his voice. They looked at the two people hugging each other in shock, unable to recover from the shock for a long time.

It was only an engagement banquet, yet there was so much shocking news.

Gu Anning looked at the young and handsome face in front of him, panicked in his heart, and angrily and bashfully pushed him away: "Lam Tung, please have some self-respect!"

Just now, he … Had he teased her in front of all the guests?

Although there was no expression on Gu Anning's face, his heart was like spring water that was thrown into disarray, and he was unable to calm down for a long time.

When Qin Kun saw that Lin Mufan had gone overboard, the smile on his face retracted, and he walked between the two of them, protecting Gu Anning behind him. "Lam Tung, today is the joyous day of the engagement ceremony between Shikai and An Ran, aren't you going too far?"

"Too much?" Lin Mufan laughed. He was already handsome, and now that he laughed like that, his handsomeness made it harder for people to look away, "I only came to notify you out of good intentions, that Chairman Qin cannot come today.

From the moment he entered until now, his face had always been one of tranquility and elegance.

"And like I said, if you don't believe me, I can send someone to bring in the photocopy of the evidence. Everyone should have a good look so that you won't misunderstand me."

Qin Kun was choked to the point that he could not say a single word, he could only pursed his lips and glared at Lin Mufan with a face full of anger.

Gu Anning stood by Qin Kun's side and frowned at Lin Mufan. This man may seem harmless but in reality, his every move was fatal. He didn't know why he would suddenly attack Qin family.

"Since Old Qin has nothing else to say, he must believe my words." Lin Mufan chuckled, and looked at the rest of the people. "Looks like today's marriage can't be arranged.

Qin Kun was so angry that his veins started to bulge on his forehead. All of the guests in the hall were renowned figures in the business world, and regardless of whether or not they could get married, just the news of the 'shortage of funds' had caused the entire Qin family to lose face.

"Miss Gu, we'll meet again next time." Lin Mufan looked at the time, and then turned around and left without hesitation. The few black-clothed men who were originally guarding the door also quietly followed behind him.

The originally noisy and eerie hall instantly quieted down. Everyone stared blankly at the empty door, feeling as if everything that just happened was just a dream.

It was a pity that Old Qin's expression reminded them that everything that had happened just now had truly happened.

Qin Kun was so angry that his face paled, and he couldn't even speak. He glanced at the butler, and ordered: "See the guests out!"

Without any hesitation, he went up to the second floor!

Gu Anning frowned, after hesitating for a moment, he followed Qin Kun and left the hall.
