Chapter 726: Chapter 726 Engagement (4)

The hall was filled with fresh blue and clean white, and with the addition of high-end red silk ribbons, the whole scene appeared grand and warm.

Just past eight o’clock, guests began to trickle into the Xuanjin Grand Hotel’s entrance. Most of them arrived in luxury cars, and their status was without exception wealthy and noble. Both the Gu Family and the An Family held pivotal statuses not only in Xuandu City but also in Xuanjin, with one being an Ancient Martial Arts Family with hundreds of years of heritage, and the other a renowned aristocratic family that had been prominent since ancient times. Their influence and financial power were certainly not to be underestimated.

If it were not for the fact that the bigwigs of Xuanjin were supporters of Old Master Gu, perhaps the Gu Family and the An Family would have long been seen as thorns in the flesh.

Gradually, more people started to gather at the hotel entrance. Gu Weijun and Gu Qingfeng, the brothers, were ceaselessly busy. No sooner had they received one guest than they had to greet another. The cool month of May somehow managed to make them both sweat profusely.

Fortunately, their busyness did not last too long, soon alleviated by the arrival of the brothers Gu Zhunlin and Gu Hanlin, who took a significant load off their shoulders.

"Back already? Did you pick up Xiao Qing?" Gu Weijun wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked with a smile.

"Picked her up! Everything went smoothly!" Gu Zhunlin gulped down a bellyful of cold water and took a breath, "That girl named Ruan Xue is such a troublemaker though. It’s just an engagement, but she turned it into something like a bride kidnapping, managing to get several large red envelopes from Hanlin and me!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Weijun chuckled, "You two little rascals finally met your match! I’ve heard about that girl Ruan Xue from Tingting; she’s a real queen, someone you boys can’t handle, right? Alright, I’ll count the red envelopes as mine. After the engagement, Uncle San will compensate you!"

Gu Qingming immediately objected. His eyes widened in anger as he fiercely glared at Gu Zhunlin and Gu Hanlin, speaking in a low voice, "Over just a few red envelopes, what’s the fuss about? You two grown men getting upset over a little girl? The cars you both drove could be sold for a truckload of red envelopes!"

Gu Zhunlin and Gu Hanlin exchanged looks and grinned at each other, their eyes filled with pleasure.

On one hand, Gu Weijun and Gu Qingfeng were busy welcoming guests at the main entrance, along with their brothers Gu Zhunlin and Gu Hanlin. Meanwhile, inside the hall, Gu Qingming, Old Master Gu, and the Gu Family’s butler took charge. The An Family, having just been picked up, also joined the welcoming party after a brief tidy up.

At this time, in the Xuanjin Grand Hotel’s lounge, An Yiqing, Gu Tingting, Ruan Xue, Kong Shi, Old Lady An, along with the two daughters-in-law of the Gu Family, Chen Fang and Yu Xiaoyan, were all gathered, sitting in the lounge and chatting happily.

"I say, Qing, how do you take care of your skin so well? It’s simply too good! Ah, makeup artist, just apply a light layer of foundation, otherwise these products are too heavy and might cover up her natural glow," Chen Fang said, looking closely at An Yiqing’s flawless face while giving detailed instructions to the makeup artist.

The makeup artist breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. She had never before seen such good skin, which required no additional makeup. But because she was worried about seeming unprofessional, she had been uncertain about how to proceed.

Now with Chen Fang’s words, the makeup artist no longer hesitated and began to adorn An Yiqing’s already exquisite face according to her original plan.
