Boyfriend?

What?

How come I didn't know!

Qin Yun almost spat out the sausage he hadn't swallowed yet.

No, Cuihua, what are you doing? Don't you know I'm already overwhelmed with admirers, and now you're pulling me in as your boyfriend?

If Jiang Tianran finds out, won't she be furious enough to throw me over her shoulder?

He gulped down the food in his mouth, staring at Liu Ya in shock.

But Liu Ya secretly pinched his waist.

Qin Yun was speechless.

However, when he looked at Gu Tang in front of him, he seemed to understand Liu Ya's intention from the anger and resentment in Gu Tang's eyes.

Could this guy be one of Liu Ya's former suitors?

In an unnoticed moment, a trace of malice flashed in Gu Tang's eyes as he stared at Qin Yun, suddenly speaking sharply.

"This boyfriend of yours doesn't seem that impressive, does he? I thought you rejected my confession back then because you found a better man."

"Now that I see, huh, your taste isn't that great after all."

As soon as he said this, everyone present suddenly understood what was going on.

No wonder the manager of the Venture Capital China Region was inquiring about Liu Ya's company.

So there was this old story behind it.

Gu Tang had once confessed publicly and been rejected by Liu Ya.

Good heavens, that's an unforgettable humiliation for any man.

Immediately, many people began to mock Qin Yun.

"President Liu, what degree did your boyfriend graduate with?"

"President Liu's promising company surely means her boyfriend is exceptional."

"Yeah, if he's so exceptional, why does he eat like a beggar, gobbling down food as if he's never seen the world!"

"..."

Shush.

Hearing this, Qin Yun's expression turned cold, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.

Liu Ya's heart sank; this was why she didn't want to attend the gathering.

She knew Gu Tang's character too well—narrow-minded, vain, and prideful. When he confessed back then, she rejected him immediately.

Who would have thought that now, when she most needed venture capital investment, the person sent to assess her would be him.

With his temperament, who knows what he might do.

But what she didn't expect was that these big bosses, who usually greeted her with smiles, would speak so coldly to the person she brought.

Right.

She almost forgot, these people also needed venture capital investment, just like her.

Wouldn't they seize the chance to curry favor with Gu Tang?

Liu Ya's expression turned cold as she addressed the crowd, "Everyone, watch your mouths. This is my boyfriend!"

"He's excellent."

"We're here to discuss business, not personal matters."

However, Gu Tang didn't see it that way. That incident back then made him a laughingstock at school.

Though Liu Ya came from a rural background, her sweet looks and great figure made her a campus beauty, pursued by many second-generation wealthy.

He was one of the many suitors who liked Liu Ya.

He gathered the courage to confess, only to be doused with cold water by Liu Ya.

He remembered it well!

Upon learning that Liu Ya's new company needed venture capital investment, he volunteered to transfer to the China Region, just to crush Liu Ya, who had once humiliated him!

He spoke disdainfully, "Business is business, personal matters are personal. Well said, but I talk about what I want."

"Xiao Ya!" He paused, smiling slightly, "I've investigated. Your company urgently needs a five-billion investment for research and development."

"If you break up with this loser now and be with me, I'll agree to the investment immediately."

Gu Tang didn't hold back, stating bluntly in front of everyone.

Liu Ya's face changed dramatically, "Gu Tang, you're shameless."

Gu Tang: "So what?"

"How am I worse than your boyfriend?"

"Hey, kid, what's your education?"

Liu Ya clenched her fists, about to speak.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yun raised his head first and said, "I graduated high school, so what?"

In an instant, the room erupted in waves of laughter.

"High school graduate? Hahaha, that's hilarious, speaking so confidently about a high school diploma!"

"President Liu, your taste is terrible. You fancy a loser who couldn't even get into college?"

"Exactly, everyone here graduated from prestigious universities. Our Mr. Gu is a talented student from Jiangnan University and even studied abroad. Isn't he better than your boyfriend?"

Gu Tang also smiled contemptuously.

Liu Ya was so angry her face turned red!

Gu Tang continued to stare at Qin Yun, "Kid, how much money do you have?"

Qin Yun chuckled, "Not much, just five hundred thousand in savings!"

The surrounding big bosses all snorted coldly.

"Only five hundred thousand? That's not enough for me to spend ten times at Heaven on Earth!"

"My car alone costs a million. Where does this low-class person get the right to be here?"

"Yeah, he doesn't even look like a pretty boy. How is he trying to be a gigolo with President Liu?"

"Hahahaha..."

The mockery grew more rampant!

Liu Ya was furious, "Everyone, shut up!"

"What kind of person my boyfriend is, it's not for you to judge."

Gu Tang sighed, sipping champagne, "Xiao Ya, I just wanted to see if your man is worthy of you."

"But now, it seems he's not even as good as I was back then."

Saying this, Gu Tang squinted at Liu Ya, "So, I really want to know why you rejected me back then?"

"Do you know how much ridicule I endured after you rejected me?"

"Do you know how deeply this matter hurt me?"

"Huh?"

Liu Ya's chest heaved, veins bulging on her arms.

Gu Tang held the power of venture capital investment, and she desperately needed the funds. Otherwise, if the research was abandoned midway, all the initial efforts would go to waste.

She had anticipated such a scene, but now facing it directly, she didn't know how to respond.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yun helped her!

"With someone like you, isn't rejection normal?"

As soon as he said this.

Swish, swish, swish!

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Qin Yun.

Gu Tang frowned, glaring coldly at Qin Yun, "Who are you to speak here?"

"What kind of thing are you!"

"If you have any qualities that surpass mine, I'd respect you as a man."

"A gigolo!"

Qin Yun was amused and said, "Qualities, huh, I've got plenty. Any one of them could crush you."

Gu Tang: "Like what?"

"Like what?" Qin Yun paused.

The next second!

He swung his hand and slapped him.

"Slap!"

A slap sent him flying.

With anger, he couldn't hold back at all!

Qin Yun shouted, "For example."

"I'm better at fighting than you!"
