Chapter 396 The show is about to begin!
Yuan Yangyang watched this good show, her mischievousness impossible to hide.
Ling Jianyang curled the corners of his lips and asked, "Is it really that good-looking?"
Yuan Yangyang: "It looks great!"
"But there's something even better, do you want to see it?"
Seeing the light in Yuan Yangyang's eyes, Ling Jianyang nodded subconsciously.
Immediately, Yuan Yangyang winked at Qiao Mengmeng, who responded by nodding.
Then Qiao Mengmeng, who hadn't spoken until now, finally spoke.
"So it was all your friend's wishful thinking? Then everything she did had nothing to do with you?"
The question was addressed to Gu Changqi, but everyone present was baffled by it, and Gu Changqi himself didn't know how to answer.
Looking at Ke Lei's expressionless face, Gu Changqi felt that it was best to distance himself from her for now.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to answer, Qiao Mengmeng said again, "Have you thought it through? You only have one chance."
"If what she did has nothing to do with you, then what happened at today's banquet will naturally not implicate you. However, you have no right to dabble in her favors."
Upon hearing this, Gu Changqi immediately realized what was going on.
What the other party was talking about was probably Su Mingyue's previous elaborate scheme to become Madam Qiao's savior.
He knew that Su Mingyue had arranged for someone to stage a play in order to help him win the project, with the aim of becoming Mrs. Qiao's savior.
Before she came here, Su Mingyue clearly told her that things had succeeded.
His project investment has been secured.
But just now, Mrs. Qiao directly stated that she was severing ties with Su Mingyue and that if she wanted the project, she had to follow the proper procedures, categorically denying any promises of investment.
He thought that his savior's efforts had failed.
But now, Qiao Mengmeng's meaningful words made Gu Changqi think more deeply.
Perhaps, he was completely on the wrong track before.
The reason Madam Qiao distanced herself from Su Mingyu was simply to avoid people thinking they had gotten in through connections, as it wouldn't sound good if word got out.
This is the Qiao family's investment promotion conference. It's unacceptable for the Qiao family to disregard the rules.
Whether Qiao was putting on a show for outsiders or was genuinely acting in a selfless and impartial manner, it doesn't matter.
Most importantly, as long as the Qiao family acknowledges Su Mingyue's life-saving grace, even if this project investment doesn't go smoothly, with the title of life-saving benefactor, they won't have to worry about not getting any benefits.
Gu Changqi's mind raced, and after weighing the pros and cons, he concluded that severing ties with Su Mingyue at this moment was definitely not the right decision.
He immediately changed his story.
"No, I'm afraid you've all misunderstood."
Gu Changqi said, "Su Mingyue is my friend. Everything she did was for me. If she really used the wrong method, then I am willing to bear all the consequences for her."
Qiao Mengmeng and Yuan Yangyang exchanged a glance, their eyes shining, and asked excitedly, "All of them? Are you sure? No regrets?"
The more Qiao Mengmeng pressed him with these questions, the more certain Gu Changqi became that his guess was correct.
He immediately said firmly, "I'm sure. Since I brought her here, I will bear all the consequences and I won't regret it."
Seeing the lively scene before her, Yuan Yangyang couldn't resist joining in.
"I didn't know that. Mr. Gu is a man of honor. I advise you to think carefully before answering. You should know that the project belongs to your entire team. If your personal issues affect your project or your development in this industry, then it will be a loss."
Gu Changqi: "So what? The project is important, but my friends' wholehearted dedication is even more important."
"No matter what Su Mingyue did, it was all for me and for our project. Naturally, we won't blame her. Instead, we will stand with her. We are in this together; we will share the good times and the bad!"
Mei Su and the others who were with Gu Changqi were also prompted to answer, "Yes! We share the good times and the bad!"
"Yes! We'll share the consequences of everything Su Mingyue did!"
Gu Changqi's words implied that he wanted to be tied to Su Mingyue, just to tell the Qiao family that they were a group and that they would share the debt of gratitude owed to their savior.
Yuan Yangyang suppressed her joy and said seriously, "Since that's the case, Mengmeng, don't hesitate and let down their team's unbreakable bond."
Let the show begin!
Qiao Mengmeng waved her hand, and to everyone's astonishment, a person was brought forward.
