He walks the career path in Shurachang

On the quiet small balcony under the moonlight, there is nothing but the sound of the wind.

Wen Ruiyun waited beside the stone railing, bowing his head and taking a sip of red wine.

Shang Heng and Gu Lin looked at each other, the latter slowly exhaled, straightened his appearance, raised his head and chest, and was about to walk out.

Shang Heng quickly pressed his chest with his hands, pushed him back to the corner, and covered Gu Lin's mouth with his hand: "Shhh—"

Gu Lin widened his eyes and looked at him in astonishment.

"How do you know we are here?" A crisp female voice suddenly sounded from behind the stone wall.

Two heads of a man and a woman emerged from the thick wine-red curtains inside the floor-to-ceiling glass doors of the small balcony. The young man was about 20 years old, and the girl was a head shorter than him, with a petite figure. Her 16-year-old face was as tender as a rosy apple. .

"What are you doing here?" Wen Ruiyun raised his eyes and looked at the younger siblings quietly, "Have you learned how to eavesdrop?"

There was no hint of sullenness in the flat tone, but Wen Ranran shrank her neck in fright, and immediately hid behind her second brother Wen Shengqi.

"We didn't, we just happened to pass by." Wen Shengqi scratched his head, looked around, and refused to admit it.

Wen Ranran nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Yes."

Wen Ruiyun saw through the poor acting skills of the two at a glance, and said slowly: "To be honest, I will give you a chance to express your opinions."

Brother and sister, you look at me and I look at you, and the two of you pushed me for a long time.

In the end, the second brother Wen Shengqi cleared his throat and said, "We didn't eavesdrop on purpose, it's just that the young master of the Fang family just now is related to your marriage partner, brother, so let's pay attention, can't we?"

Behind the stone wall, Gu Lin pointed to Shang Heng's hand covering him, motioning for him to let go.

"How do you know that Wen Ruiyun didn't notice the two of us?" Gu Lin lightly rubbed his index finger on the tip of his nose, as if there was a trace of Shang Heng's breath, a faint scent of soap and musk.

Shang Heng smiled and looked at him: "Want to know?"

He hooked his fingers at the other party mysteriously, Gu Lin pursed his lips, glanced at him indifferently, and obediently lowered his head to listen closely.

Shang Heng whispered in his ear, "Because I'm smart."

Gu Lin's face darkened, this guy turned a corner and hurt him!

He straightened up abruptly, twisted his sword eyebrows, and stared straight at him. Shang Heng's lips curled into a modest smile, and he looked at Gu Lin with such kindness that he looked at a husky that had been teased.

Across a wall, the two brothers and sisters of the Wen family looked at their elder brother anxiously.

Wen Ruiyun had a panoramic view of the expressions of the two, and asked lightly: "What exactly do you want to say?"

Wen Ranran became bolder: "You told us to say it, so I'll say it, we don't like that young master of the Fang family."

Wen Ruiyun smiled casually: "Why don't you like it? He comes from a famous family, knows etiquette and advances and retreats, not too smart, but not too stupid, just right."

"More importantly, it is an excellent help for the Wen family. He is even willing to give away half of the equity. Isn't it a suitable marriage partner?"

Shang Heng quietly pricked up his ears from the shadows, and raised an eyebrow unhappyly. Didn't Wen Ruiyun just reject Fang Yang, is he fascinated by equity again?

The corner of Gu Lin's mouth twitched disdainfully: "I just said that the two of them are working together. Wen Ruiyun is a businessman through and through. He only cares about profits in everything. Don't hold unrealistic illusions about him."

Shang Heng squinted at him: "Aren't you a businessman?"

Gu Lin said coldly: "Don't forget, Wen Ruiyun is the biggest villain in the book."

He paused and raised his chin slightly: "I am the decent person."

Shang Heng: "..."

Wen Ranran pouted: "So what, brother, if you don't like him, of course we don't either."

Wen Ruiyun was noncommittal: "Oh? You know again?"

Wen Ranran wrinkled the tip of her nose and snorted softly: "Of course I know. If I really like someone, how can I do calculations like doing business? And you treat him more than politely, without any closeness."

Under the moonlight, the eyes of the two brothers and sisters were bright: "Brother, we hope that you can treat yourself better and be with the person you really like, no matter what family background..."

Wen Ruiyun slowly retracted the smile on his lips, and the two siblings immediately fell silent, closing their eyes and preparing to be scolded.

The expected reprimand did not come, Wen Ruiyun looked at the two for a long time, finally pressed the raised eyebrows, and said wearily: "Too naive. Children should not meddle in the affairs of adults."

Wen Shengqi beeped softly: "I'm an adult, how can I be young? Besides, Ran Ran and I don't want to be like you in the future, and you arrange to marry someone who doesn't love at all."

Wen Ruiyun frowned, and said lightly: "I still treat the world as a fairy tale when I'm an adult? What are you and me? Pursuing love? That's just an illusion intertwined with hormones and dopamine. Only when the family is right and the interests are connected can a stable and long-term marriage be concluded."

"Didn't you get enough of the pain and hurt caused by the breakdown of your parents' marriage?"

Wen Ranran couldn't help but talk back: "You are always so paranoid and stubborn, you have never loved anyone, and you have never been loved before, that's why you say that!"

Wen Shengqi glared at her: "Ran Ran, shut up!"

Wen Ruiyun's heart stabbed, his eyes sank instantly, and his fingers holding the wine glass tightened slightly: "This topic will stop here, you two go back to your room."

Footsteps stepped out of the small balcony heavily, and the empty space soon became calm again.

Shang Heng leaned on the edge of the stone wall, quietly looking at Wen Ruiyun's tall and slender figure. He turned his back to Shang Heng, and couldn't see the expression on his face. The music of the banquet.

The boundary between quiet and noisy is particularly clear.

He is obviously the owner of the huge manor, but he leans on the railing and pours himself a drink.

Soon after Wen Ruiyun drank the last sip of wine, a waiter came to call him, the wine glass rested on the railing, the footsteps gradually faded away, only Shang Heng and Gu Lin in the corner were left on the balcony.

The two were finally able to get out of the shadows, and they looked at each other speechlessly for a while.

"This is probably the trouble of the rich family." Shang Heng looked at the wine glass on the railing, "It's the same as in the TV drama."

Gu Lin looked at him and raised his eyebrows: "Why should you care about the paper man's emotions?"

Shang Heng turned around in surprise: "You treat them all as paper figures?"

Gu Lin said as a matter of course: "This is the world in the book. Only you and I are real."

Hearing that he emphasized the word "you and me", Shang Heng rubbed his nose, wondering if he should tell the other party that this so-called book world is probably the truth of a sieve.

"You two are not in the banquet hall, why are you here?"

A gentle voice came from behind him abruptly, and Shang Heng turned his head suddenly. It turned out that Wen Ruiyun had gone and returned, standing on the dividing line between the moonlight and the crystal light, squinting his eyes, looking at the two of them lightly.

The corners of Gu Lin's eyes twitched slightly, and then he nodded coldly: "Mr. Wen, your manor has a nice view, you don't mind if we look around."

"Of course." Wen Ruiyun walked slowly to the railing, took back the dropped wine glass, looked at Shang Heng's face, and smiled slightly, "You two can do whatever you want."

Shang Heng's cheeks were sour for no reason, and he always felt that the atmosphere was weird.

He twitched the corner of his mouth and couldn't help saying: "Mr. Wen, in fact, things are not what you think..."

Wen Ruiyun looked at him with a half-smile: "What do I think?"

He joked: "I remember someone told me that they fell in love with me at first sight, and they fell in love with me? Huh? To coax me?"

Shang Heng: "..."

Overturned! ! !

As thick-skinned as Shang Heng, he couldn't help but feel extremely troubled right now, all because of Gu Lin, the harmless and well-behaved white lotus image he managed to create in front of the villainous big boss, was suddenly on the edge of a collapsed cliff.

Gu Lin's eyes changed slightly, and he immediately stared at him—love at first sight?Love it? ?

What play is this singing about?

If he remembers correctly, the company that Shang Heng signed is still under the Gu Group, flirting with his deadly rival in front of him?What do you mean?

Wen Ruiyun glanced at the two with smiling eyes, as if he still felt that the fire was not enough, and added another: "By the way, last time I said, I hope Mr. Shang will join Changfeng Entertainment, a subsidiary of Tianhe Group. What do you think?" ?”

Gu Lin couldn't help but grabbed Shang Heng's wrist, pulled it in his direction, and asked in a low voice: "Do you know where you stand?"

Shang Heng: "..."

Just when Shang Heng's head was as big as a bucket, the small balcony once again ushered in a new guest.

"So it's hiding here, so I can find it easily."

Lin Yuqing embraced her hands, leaning against the floor-to-ceiling glass door frame, her gaze circled around the three of them, and she looked at the speechless Shang Heng with a smile on her face.

The three of them sandwiched Shang Heng in the middle in an isosceles triangle posture.

He clenched his fists to cover his lips, coughed lightly, and smiled at Lin Yuqing: "Mr. Lin, good evening. What do you need from me?"

Lin Yuqing shrugged her shoulders: "I'm afraid you're not familiar with the place, and I wanted to introduce you to a few more people, but it seems that I was too worried."

Shang Heng's eyes lit up: "Ah, no, no, that's exactly what I mean."

He glanced at Wen Ruiyun from the corner of his eye, and then at Gu Lin. The two of them had a polite and cold face, and neither spoke.

Shang Heng moved one step towards Lin Yuqing's direction, and then another step.

Lin Yuqing's ears twitched, and she smiled at him: "The dance in the front hall has begun, please dance with me."

Shang Heng's face was full of helplessness: "... Teacher Lin is happy."

Lin Yuqing specially turned her head to look at Wen and Gu, and tapped her chin lightly: "Excuse me, both of you."

Watching Shang Heng and the two leave, Wen Ruiyun raised his glass to Gu Lin from a distance, and smiled lightly: "Mr. Gu, would you like a drink?"

Gu Lin pursed her lips reservedly: "No, Mr. Wen, please do what you want."

Wen Ruiyun stared at the back of the other party hurriedly heading to the front hall, with fine lines at the end of his eyes, shook his head and smiled softly.

After a while, the phone in his pocket vibrated slightly, he unlocked it, and a text message from an unfamiliar number appeared on the screen——

"Mr. Wen, you are not authentic. Shang Heng."

Wen Ruiyun couldn't help laughing, the invitation letter he gave him had contact information, but he didn't expect the first message to be like this.

He thought for a while, and replied with two words - interesting.
