Chapter 203 - 117: The Aura of the Upper Class is Still Not Suitable for Me_3

the first to respond was wu yifeng, and following his lead, everyone else, regardless of gender, replied in the same tone. gu heng, on the other hand, sat to the side like an outsider, smiling but not speaking.

compared to so many people at the gathering, he indeed felt like an outsider.

he had only attended the drinking party because he still had to buy a car from lu yuan; otherwise, he really wouldn’t have wanted to come.

too constrained.

according to how things were progressing, once dinner was over and the car inspection was completed, he could leave; as for whether or not to integrate into lu yuan’s circle, not to mention the absurdity of trying to get familiar with so many people at just one gathering.

besides, even if he could fit in, there was no need. he had realized something, there’s a saying that goes very well, "don’t force your way into a circle that isn’t yours."

meaningless.

with the system in him and endless money to spend, there was no need to artificially elevate his status to fit into this group.

just have fun first, enjoy all the things that should be enjoyed; eventually, his status would naturally rise.

gu heng still couldn’t meld into the conversation at the table until he received a message from xu ying informing him that the car check was completed with no issues. glancing at his watch and realizing it was about time, he stood up, smiled at lu yuan next to him, and said, "brother lu, they’ve notified me the car inspection is all set. if you’re busy, i’ll find a lawyer to draft the contract.

i’ve added you on wechat, we’ll go through the procedures after the contract is sorted, then settle the payment face to face, deal?"

seeing this, lu yuan nodded towards gu heng and said, "sure, i will be in shanghai these couple of days anyway, just come find me directly once the contract is ready."

with lu yuan’s agreement, gu heng poured himself a drink, smiled at the others at the table, and said, "it seems i’m about wrapped up here, so i’ll take my leave. i apologize to everyone, and as a penalty, let me drink to you all."

gu heng felt the air was so much fresher.

suddenly, he realized that the upper-class atmosphere inside the banquet hall didn’t suit him...

he was more suited to enjoying an ordinary life.

with that thought, gu heng took out his phone and dialed xu ying.

"mr. gu, what’s up?"

hearing xu ying’s voice, gu heng said directly, "book me two plane tickets for three days from now."

"alright, where’s the destination?"

"any."

xu ying: ???

what does ’any’ mean?

just as xu ying was about to ask for clarification, gu heng’s voice came through again: "draw up a blind box for me, i’m planning a trip. whichever city you’d like to go to, just book the flights to that city."

after finishing, gu heng hung up the phone...

meanwhile, xu ying was left with question marks still hanging over her head...
