Gu Ren had just arrived at the club to pick up Ye Zhi to head home. He did not expect that he would be witnessing this kind of weird scenario.
Everyone else in the club was not surprised to see Gu Ren show up at the club. After all, this place was owned by the Gu family.
However, they were not sure what kind of relationship Gu Ren had with Sheng Man. Judging from Sheng Man’s tone, it seemed as if the two had a good relationship. They wondered if Gu Ren would help her to save face.
Gu Ren’s expression remained unmoved. He looked past the crowd, as eyes directly landed on Sheng Man. He walked straight towards her and stood beside Qin Ling.
Sheng Man looked at Gu Ren, who was standing in the light. His expression remained indifferent, as if he did not know her at all.
Suddenly, Sheng Man felt a bad feeling about the situation. She said in a tender voice, “Gu...”
The commotion of the surrounding spectators was becoming more intense. Such a spectacle was quite out of the ordinary to witness for them.
Although the Sheng family’s assets were known to be in the billions, it was still miniscule compared to the Gu family.
Sheng Bang had been acting cocky because he was riding on the coattails of the Sheng family. He never expected that the Gu family would disregard his affiliation and force him to lose face.
However, Sheng Bang was not entirely faultless either. He forcefully opened the most expensive wine in the club without considering whether he could afford to pay for it. It was also misfortunate for Sheng Man to be related to such a person.
The spectators continued to chatter aloud. Hearing this, Sheng Man wore a stiff smile as she asked, “Sheng Bang is a relative of the Sheng family. So of course we will pay, I am wondering if it’s alright for us to leave first?”
Gu Ren continued to wear an indifferent expression, “Once he has paid for the whisky, he will be allowed to leave naturally.”
In the next second, Gu Ren turned his gaze towards Sheng Man, “If you want to pay for your brother’s debt, that’s fine as well.”
Gu Ren had simply given Sheng Man a brief look, but when she heard the words ‘your brother’, she panicked as if her guilty conscience was pricked. She subconsciously denied this and emphasized once more.
“He is just a relative of mine. I will clear his debt, but I don’t have that much money on me right now.”
