Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived-Chapter 233 - : The Best Friend

Chapter 233: Chapter 233: The Best Friend

Locking eyes with his intensely aggressive gaze, Shen Mochen was silent for a few seconds before he spoke, “Qiangwei and I are indeed the best of friends.”

As his voice fell, his gaze turned towards Gu Qiangwei, “Isn’t that right, Qiangwei.”

Gu Qiangwei smiled; both publicly and privately, Shen Mochen had indeed shown her a great deal of care.

“Mhm.”

Qin Sijue caught a glance from the corner of his eye and an unhappy look appeared on his face as it fell upon her slightly smiling one.

Damn woman, whose wife is she after all!

...

Feeling displeased, Sijue gave Shen Mochen a glance and then pulled his own wife away to leave.

Shen Hua had intended to form a connection with him, but after seeing Qin Sijue’s displeased profile, he couldn’t help but withdraw his gaze and turn towards his son, Shen Mochen.

“Mochen, don’t you know Qin Sijue’s status? And yet you blatantly flirt with his wife!” As someone with experience, he wasn’t blind to the fact that Qin Sijue didn’t like others coveting what was his.

If he weren’t around, perhaps he could still try to ingratiate himself with his wife.

Shen Mochen’s gaze remained fixed on Gu Qiangwei’s retreating figure until she disappeared into the crowd of guests, only then did he look away and cast a glance at his father.

“I know.”

“You know and yet you still do this!? Remember that Gu Qiangwei is not your little schoolmate anymore; she is Qin Sijue’s woman now!”

“So? Are you hoping I cut off all ties with her or what?”

Shen Hua paused, frowned, and lowered his eyes in thought.

Many people wanted to get close to Qin Sijue, and having such a relationship was naturally excellent, but Qin Sijue’s attitude just now was clearly hostile towards his son.

It seemed that if they wanted to continue cooperating with Dijue, some more effort would be required.

“Naturally, I don’t oppose your interactions with Gu Qiangwei, but you should at least be a bit more considerate, and at least maintain some distance from her in front of Qin Sijue.”

“Qiangwei and I are simply friends; there’s no need for such considerations.”

After dropping his words, Shen Mochen was not in the mood for his father’s nagging, and turned to leave with a glass of wine in his hand.

Shen Hua wanted to say something but eventually sighed helplessly after catching a glimpse of his son walking away.

.

The guests invited this evening were all renowned figures in both the business and political circles.

Qin Sijue had only returned to the country recently, and perhaps because of his identities with Dizun Group and Qin Guozhong, in just a few months, the name ‘Qin Sijue’ and his face had become well-known throughout Jingcheng.

Keep in mind, he was involved in both business and politics; naturally, the number of people eager to establish a connection with him was overwhelming!

Watching the stream of business elites approaching her, Gu Qiangwei found it impossible to muster any interest.

While Qin Sijue was engaged in conversation, she silently slipped her hand out of the crook of his arm and discreetly slipped away.

She had been surrounded by people since earlier and felt like she was suffocating!

After squeezing through the crowd, she finally breathed in some fresh air, and Gu Qiangwei let out a huge sigh, suddenly feeling hungry.

After all, she hadn’t eaten dinner yet.

Her clear eyes lifted slightly, scanning the entire venue until they finally settled on a table not far off, laden with an array of drinks and pastries.

She stepped toward it.

Picking up a pastry, she stuffed it into her mouth, but maybe because she ate it a bit too hastily, she had trouble swallowing and reached out to grab a cocktail.

But before her hand could touch the glass, the drink was abruptly taken by another hand.
