Reborn As Super Heiress-Chapter 146 - 143: Stirred Mortal Thoughts

Chapter 146: Chapter 143: Stirred Mortal Thoughts

“Ran into someone you know, Xu Zi, and you’re not even going to introduce them?”

Having noticed that Gu Xu had bumped into an acquaintance, Qin Tian couldn’t help but ask.

“The chairman of Su Group’s Donghua, Mr. Su Jinyuan—he and I just discussed a partnership project not long ago,” Gu Xu explained nonchalantly.

“Mr. Su, nice to meet you. My name is Qin Tian, Gu Xu’s childhood friend and close brother.”

Knowing Gu Xu’s personality, Qin Tian realized that since Gu Xu actually introduced him, the person in front of them must at least not be someone Gu Xu disliked, even if not a close acquaintance. He immediately smiled and extended his hand.

Out of courtesy, Su Jinyuan shook his hand in return.

...

Being an extrovert, Qin Tian had just finished shaking hands with Su Jinyuan when he turned around and flashed his usual lady-killer move—

A handsome face leaned in behind Su Jinyuan, giving a sleazy smile to the three beautiful young women.

“Hello, ladies. Are you here to gamble on stones too?”

Su Qingqing nodded her head.

The smile on Qin Tian’s face grew even brighter, “That’s such a coincidence, I’m here to gamble on stones too. Do you need any free help? Not to boast, but I do have a certain talent for it…”

Blah, blah, blah, Qin Tian bragged in front of the three women, completely unaware that Su Jinyuan and Gu Xu were both scowling behind his back.

Damn, who’s this idiot trying to hit on my sister right in front of me?! Su Jinyuan was very displeased.

This idiot! Why does he have to get frisky wherever he goes, cozying up to any pretty woman he sees? Is he completely shameless? Gu Xu felt that he was about to lose face entirely because of Qin Tian.

Damn, this guy called Qin Tian is too brazen, hitting on a girl right in front of her brother. No wonder I can’t find a partner—it’s all because I’m not shameless enough! Du Yuanwei felt irritated and took a hit to his self-esteem.

“Damn it, it’s one thing for a public stone gambling event to drive up the prices of the raw stones, but even a bottle of water gets a price hike?!” Ouyang Jun, who hurried over with several bottles of mineral water in hand, found it odd that Gu Xu and the others were still standing outside, “Eh, why haven’t you gone in?”

Gu Xu didn’t explain, and Ouyang Jun followed his gaze towards Qin Tian. His eyes paused on Huo Sining, and he couldn’t help but be stunned, “Miss Huo, what are you doing here? You’re here to gamble on stones too? That’s such a coincidence! Do you need help?”

Gu Xu: “…”

Su Jinyuan: “…”

Huo Sining: “…”

Bai Yishan: “…”

Su Qingqing: “Why does that sound so familiar?”

Qin Tian turned his head and gave Ouyang Jun a contemptuous look, You pighead, even if you want to hit on someone, at least change your lines, will you? Damn, I already said that! No creativity, thumbs down!

After everyone’s introductions, they realized that Gu Xu knew both Su Jinyuan and Ouyang Jun, and that Ouyang Jun had met Huo Sining before, making them acquaintances.

Upon learning that Huo Sining was the fish-raising expert Ouyang Jun had mentioned, Qin Tian’s interest in her spiked, and he couldn’t help but chuckle, “This is like a flood that has washed over the Dragon King Temple and the family no longer recognizes each other.”

Huo Sining secretly rolled her eyes inwardly, Big brother, are you here to be funny? Who’s family with you?

Gu Xu also became wary. Although Qin Tian was a bit silly, he still had charisma. With just a flick of his finger, he could have a bunch of women throwing themselves at him. He couldn’t let Huo Sining, this young girl, be seduced by him. Qin Tian was too much of a flirt, and the girl was still so young; she shouldn’t be in contact with him too much!

With this in mind, Gu Xu discreetly put distance between Qin Tian and Huo Sining and started guiding Qin Tian towards the venue.

He would never admit that seeing Qin Tian hit on Huo Sining made him feel sour and uneasy.

Nor would he concede that he had actually taken a liking to the young girl, which was why he got so protective and couldn’t stand to see Huo Sining close to any man other than himself.

“Uh…” Qin Tian gave Gu Xu a weird look, “Xu Zi, why are you in such a hurry to pull me in here? I haven’t even finished getting close to Miss Huo!”

Gu Xu gave Qin Tian a cold glance, “You change girlfriends as often as you change clothes. That young lady is simple and innocent, not your type!

Qin Tian replied, “No, big brother, she’s Jun Zi’s lifesaver. Even out of respect for Jun Zi, I wouldn’t dare to make a move on her. I really do have something to ask her. My mother has been raising several tropical fish, and they fell ill a few days ago. We consulted an expert who said it was an infectious disease and couldn’t be cured. My mom’s been so heartbroken. I just happened to come across an expert, so I thought I’d chat with her and see if there was any chance of saving the fish!”

Qin Tian’s inner monologue: This is a bigger injustice than Dou E’s — all I did was talk to someone, how could it be so misunderstood? Does everyone have to think so ill of me? Even a rabbit won’t eat the grass next to its burrow. Heaven and earth are my witnesses; I had no such intentions&…%…%%￥…&…

Gu Xu: “…”

A certain Falcon Captain, usually as serious as a statue and a man with a stoic demeanor, actually blushed for the first time. Feeling uncomfortable, he coughed lightly and turned his head away, but his eyes involuntarily followed a certain graceful figure.

Qin Tian didn’t notice this odd scene, but Ouyang Jun, who was nearby, did.

Ouyang Jun, an investment professional who was perceptive to tiny details, was shocked to see Gu Xu’s ears turn pink.

What had happened without his knowledge that could cause Gu Xu to exhibit such an odd expression? My goodness, this was the first time he had seen Gu Xu blush in all the years he’d known him since childhood! This was highly unusual!

Noticing that Gu Xu’s gaze kept straying in Su Jinyuan’s direction, Ouyang Jun’s mind raced with a ludicrous idea that even he found absurd.

Could it be? Has the monk who’s been vegetarian for years actually developed worldly desires? Such explosive news, and he’d uncovered it?

Ouyang Jun was excited yet found it hard to believe.

His gaze meandered over Su Qingqing, Huo Sining, and Bai Yishan, analyzing which one of these women was powerful enough to thaw their perennial iceberg of a man.

By logical deduction, Huo Sining, who looked very young with her baby face resembling a secondary school student, was probably not Gu Xu’s type.

Su Qingqing might have a great figure, but seemed a bit ditzy, not the kind of intelligent woman likely to be Gu Xu’s choice.

So that left Bai Yishan. This woman appeared beautiful, sexy, and intellectual. Compared to Yao Xinzhu’s looks and demeanor, Gu Xu’s first love, Bai Yishan was the most similar to Yao Xinzhu.

The more Ouyang Jun thought about it, the more he felt he was closing in on the truth. His eyes started sparkling with the light of gossip, as if he had a sensational secret in his grasp.
