Gu Youchen actually commented on her Moment, and seemed to have praised her beauty! Ning Qingqing was startled by this realization.

After all, according to how Shen Zhiqian described before, Gu Youchen is a ruthless and cold-hearted profiteer on the corporate playing field.

Yet this “profiteer” shared a box of tiramisu with her in a cake shop and also affirmed her beauty in her Moments.

Ning Qingqing thought for a while and replied to Gu Youchen: “Thank you for your affirmation, kindly accepted.” After that, she casually clicked on Gu Youchen’s avatar and went to his Moments.

As she guessed, Gu Youchen’s Moments background picture was a monochromatic building, which wasn’t very approachable. He also posted very few Moments; only some industry consultations, and occasionally some news about the Gu clan.

Ning Qingqing was taken aback as soon as she exited his Moments because she suddenly had more than 20 comments. She was skeptical as she opened them. It was only then that she understood what had happened.

At the top, ‘CEO Ning’ commented: “Clashed with someone’s outfit? I already said that I could hire a personal designer for you, but you insisted on keeping a low profile.”

Just after this ‘CEO Ning’ commented, a bunch of old men in Ning Qingqing’s contacts who usually had nothing to do with her1 appeared one after another: “CEO Ning, this is the first time I’ve seen you using your Moments, which wind blew you here?”

CEO Ning: “A wind that’s called my daughter.”

The chat below exploded: “Turns out that she’s your precious daughter, look at my notes, why did I write ‘Assistant Ning’ at that time? What a big misunderstanding!”

“Miss Ning, this is too low-key. I remember the last time we met; Miss Ning called herself CEO Ning’s little assistant. I said at the time, how can there be an assistant with such an impressive aura!”

“Xiao2 Ning, don’t be afraid if you clash outfits with someone, the embarrassed one must be the other person!”

“What kind of clothes does Xiao Ning like? Uncle3 happens to make clothes. Later, Uncle will ask the assistant to send you a few sets of clothes to wear for fun!”

Looking at the pretentious speeches from these middle-aged uncles, feeling a headache Ning Qingqing held her forehead.

‘CEO Ning’ is her mother. When she just graduated from university, her mother took her to a business dinner and because she wanted to train her, her mother deliberately concealed her identity. At the time when she added these uncles, they thought she was her mother’s little assistant.

It’s been almost two years since that dinner. These people have been lying dead4 in her Moments for so long. Today was their first interaction.

People are pragmatic and Ning Qingqing understood this well.
