The host ruthlessly crushes scum in the small world

Chapter 174 Resilient Little White Flower VS. Group Leader 6

The door to the private room opened, and Zhong Wanxi walked in. Zhong Wanxi smiled radiantly at Gu Zhijin, whose expression immediately betrayed something amiss.

Jiang Jinjin was surprised to run into Zhong Wanxi here, and her mood immediately soured. Zhong Wanxi walked over and sat down next to Jiang Jinjin.

"You're the new friend Zhijin met?"

Zhong Wanxi looked at Jiang Jinjin with a smile. Even sitting together, the difference was obvious. Zhong Wanxi was a pampered heiress who had been raised in luxury, and she possessed an artistic flair; naturally, her clothing and overall demeanor were different.

Although Jiang Jinjin's family was well-off, it couldn't compare to the Zhong family, so her clothing and appearance weren't as sophisticated. However, since meeting Gu Zhijin, she'd been dazzled by all sorts of luxury goods, and now she wanted to wear a different luxury outfit every day.

"I'm……"

Jiang Jinjin noticed the difference between herself and Gu Zhijin, and was about to speak, but Gu Zhijin interrupted her.

"Why are you here? I thought you looked down on us because you've been living abroad!"

Zhong Wanxi laughed, and Gu Zhijin felt as if she had returned to a time when the two of them were very young. Jiang Jinjin's expression worsened.

"How could I? I would never forget you all, and I would never forget you!"

"Junior Zhong, we come here often, but you haven't been here before, have you? Would you like to try this new drink?"

Jiang Jinjin listened to Zhong Wanxi's words. Wasn't this blatant seduction of Gu Zhijin right in front of her? But she wasn't Gu Zhijin's girlfriend yet, since Gu Zhijin had never acknowledged her.

Zhong Wanxi picked up the wine on the table and took a small sip. Jiang Jinjin was watching smugly, but Zhong Wanxi's words made her freeze instantly.

"Yu really has become the best bartender. When we were kids, we thought he was just joking. Zhijin, do you remember how Yu's mother reacted when she heard that?"

Zhong Wanxi's words reminded Gu Zhijin of her childhood. A Yu had grown up with them, and when A Yu said she wanted to be a bartender, her parents almost broke her legs!

Gu Zhijin was surprised that Zhong Wanxi still remembered, and a look of nostalgia appeared on her face.

"His parents almost broke his legs!"

"Yes, I didn't expect Zhijin to remember. I didn't expect that after so long, Ayu has really become a bartender! Oh, right, I forgot to give you all the gifts. You left in a hurry last time, so I gave them to everyone else!"

Zhong Wanxi took out two exquisite boxes from her bag, handing one to Gu Zhijin and the other to Jiang Jinjin.

"Your name is Jiang Jinjin, right? These earrings are specially picked out for you."

Jiang Jinjin looked at the exquisite earrings in the box; they were from a luxury brand she couldn't afford, and Zhong Wanxi had just casually given them away.

"Why don't you give it a try? Let Zhijin see it too!"

Before Gu Zhijin could even look at the contents of her box, she saw Zhong Wanxi staring at her with bright eyes, and instinctively spoke up.

"Jinjin, why don't you give it a try!"

Jiang Jinjin stared at Gu Zhijin in disbelief, but Gu Zhijin had no idea what was happening.

"Does it mean you don't like the gift I gave you?"

"Excuse me, I need to use the restroom first!"

Jiang Jinjin stood up in anger and walked out of the private room to the restroom. Looking in the mirror, she touched her earlobe and found that there was no ear piercing at all!

Gu Zhijin hadn't noticed at all!

"It seems that Zhijin doesn't care about you as much as I thought?"

Jiang Jinjin was startled and turned around to find Zhong Wanxi. Zhong Wanxi looked at Jiang Jinjin's disheveled appearance and gave a sarcastic smile.

"How did you come?"

"Don't panic, you can't be the only one who came here!"

Zhong Wanxi washed her hands, looked at herself in the mirror, and touched her face. She still looked so beautiful.

At the same time, she glanced at Jiang Jinjin standing beside her and pursed her lips.

"Did you deliberately send those earrings?"

Jiang Jinjin also realized that Zhong Wanxi had deliberately given her those earrings!

"Aren't you just saying this on purpose because I haven't been back for so long, to show how close you are to them?"

Zhong Wanxi took out lipstick and applied it to her lips. Jiang Jinjin looked at the comparison in the mirror and suddenly felt ashamed of herself.

"I thought Zhijin would really like a girl like that? Turns out she's nothing special!"

"What do you mean by that?!"

"It means exactly what it says: Zhijin doesn't like you; she didn't even know you didn't have pierced ears."

"He just forgot!"

Jiang Jinjin retorted to Zhong Wanxi in disbelief. Zhong Wanxi glanced at Jiang Jinjin lightly, as if looking at a clown.

"Then why didn't he forget to wear the cufflinks I gave him?"

Gu Zhijin was already a senior in college and had started working at the Gu Group. Since it was her own company, she naturally had to wear a suit to the office, and there were also meetings that required her to wear a suit.

As Jiang Jinjin listened to Zhong Wanxi's words, she also remembered that Gu Zhijin would always wear cufflinks when he wore a suit!

She had considered buying Gu Zhijin a new one, but Gu Zhijin always refused. She assumed it was because Gu Zhijin thought the ones she bought were too cheap.

It wasn't until she heard Zhong Wanxi's words today that Jiang Jinjin realized that the cufflinks were a gift from Zhong Wanxi.

"I specifically picked out those cufflinks when I heard that Zhijin was going to join the company, and I didn't expect Zhijin to like them so much!"

"But so what? He still cares about me!"

Zhong Wanxi looked at Jiang Jinjin, who was jumping up and down.

"Hmph! She's clearly never seen anything good before. She wants to wear everything expensive she sees. I feel sorry for Zhijin!"

Before Jiang Jinjin could react, Zhong Wanxi rolled her eyes and left. Jiang Jinjin knew she couldn't just leave like that, so she returned to the private room.

Upon entering the private room, Jiang Jinjin saw Zhong Wanxi already sitting next to Gu Zhijin. On the way there, Jiang Jinjin had been thinking that if she got angry, Gu Zhijin would definitely chase after her.

So Jiang Jinjin walked over, picked up her bag, and was about to leave, but just as she straightened up, her wrist was grabbed. Jiang Jinjin was overjoyed.

"Jinjin, if someone gives you jewelry, you should at least wear it and let them see it."

Jiang Jinjin was stunned. What did Gu Zhijin mean by that? Did he want her to wear it? She noticed that Gu Zhijin's cufflinks had been changed, and the gift box beside him was empty. It turned out that Zhong Wanxi had given her cufflinks after all.

Gu Zhijin opened the gift box, held it in front of Jiang Jinjin, and gestured for her to take it.

Jiang Jinjin looked at Gu Zhijin in disbelief.

"Have you forgotten? I don't have pierced ears!"

Jiang Jinjin couldn't take it anymore and threw her bag down. No one expected her to lose her temper like this, since she was only with Gu Zhijin for money.

Everyone started trying to smooth things over. It was then that Gu Zhijin realized Jiang Jinjin didn't have pierced ears. The things he usually gave her were just random purchases; he didn't care how Jiang Jinjin had discovered this.
