Upon hearing Gu Chenan's words, a flash of anger crossed Liu Wan's face. Including the time during their blind date, this was the second time Gu Chenan had called her a "narcissistic woman."
However, given the current situation, Liu Wan didn't lash out. She merely snorted dismissively and said, "It seems latching onto Miss Su has given you a lot of confidence, huh?"
"Latching onto?" Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow, immediately understanding Liu Wan's implication.
To be fair, Gu Chenan hadn't actively tried to hide his identity. When people asked him earlier what he did for a living, he had simply told the truth.
However, judging by Liu Wan's tone, she seemed to genuinely believe that he was a boy toy who had latched onto Su Qianmo, a rich woman.
Damn it, do you think I'm Hello Kitty just because I'm not showing my claws?
Gu Chenan let out a cold laugh and said, "You really amuse me."
Liu Wan not only failed to realize where Gu Chenan's confidence came from but became even more convinced that he was so smug because of Su Qianmo.
She snorted and said, "Isn't that the case? I bet the clothes you're wearing today were bought by Miss Su, right?"
Then, feigning shock, she added, "Or perhaps everything you're wearing, inside and out, was bought by Miss Su?!"
Bang!
Gu Chenan slammed his glass down on the table and narrowed his eyes. "Well, that's going to disappoint you. Let me tell you, while Su Qianmo is the CEO of Caiying, I am the owner."
"Is there a problem with me buying Caiying and letting my fiancée be the CEO?" Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow.
Upon hearing this, Liu Wan's eyebrows shot up, her eyes widened, and her expression froze for a few seconds.
Then...
"Hahaha, are you kidding me, Gu Chenan? How can you say such nonsense without blushing?"
Liu Wan burst into laughter, holding her stomach. "Others might not know about your family background, but I do. Your parents have been running a small shop all their lives. How could you possibly afford to buy Caiying?"
Gu Chenan had thought revealing his identity would shut Liu Wan up, but he hadn't expected her to completely disbelieve him.
This wasn't Liu Wan pretending not to believe; she genuinely didn't.
Liu Wan knew about Gu Chenan's family background. Plus, Gu Chenan had spent two years playing video games after graduation. Now he was claiming to have bought Caiying. Unless Liu Wan was brain-dead, there was no way she could believe it.
Gu Chenan was at a loss for words. For a moment, he didn't know how to prove it.
However, seeing Gu Chenan struggling to speak, Liu Wan thought she had rendered him speechless. Emboldened by the alcohol, she became even more unrestrained.
She swirled the wine glass in her hand and said with a smirk, "Who would have thought, Gu Chenan? You're more capable than your parents. They just stuck to that little shop, but you, a college graduate, actually managed to climb the social ladder by latching onto a rich woman."
With that, Liu Wan gave Gu Chenan a disdainful look and turned to leave.
But this time, Gu Chenan had finally had enough.
No matter how much Liu Wan had despised him during their blind date or how much she looked down on him now, Gu Chenan could have dismissed her as an idiot and not bothered to argue.
But there was one thing she absolutely couldn't say – anything about his parents. That was the bottom line.
"Stop right there!" Gu Chenan stood up, fuming with anger.
"Something else?" Liu Wan turned back, looking indifferent.
Gu Chenan didn't waste words. He swung his arm and slapped her hard across the face.
"Slap!"
The crisp sound of the slap instantly echoed throughout the banquet hall, drawing everyone's attention.
The group of people who were chatting with Su Qianmo immediately turned their heads.
Under everyone's gaze, Gu Chenan swung his arm again. "Slap!"
"Didn't your parents teach you to respect your elders? Huh?!"
After delivering two slaps, Gu Chenan grabbed his half-finished cocktail from the table and threw it in Liu Wan's face.
Liu Wan was completely stunned by Gu Chenan's two slaps. It wasn't until the cold liquid dripped onto her evening gown that she felt the burning pain on both her cheeks.
"You... you dare to hit me!"
Liu Wan covered her cheeks and let out a piercing scream.
"Go on, keep talking. I'll slap you for every word you say." Gu Chenan, completely disregarding the onlookers, pointed a finger at Liu Wan, as if ready to give her another slap the moment she opened her mouth.
"Mr. Gu, if there's an issue, we can talk it out."
"Calm down, both of you, please calm down."
At this point, the banquet hall's security and several people who had been chatting with Su Qianmo earlier rushed forward to separate the two.
"Let go of me! Gu Chenan, you dare to hit me! You actually dare to hit me! I'll have my father deal with you!" Liu Wan struggled in the arms of several security guards like a crazed cat.
Gu Chenan remained very calm, showing no extreme reaction. He just coldly and disdainfully said, "Those two slaps are a warning. If you insult me again, I'll make sure you pay the price."
"Make me pay the price? A loser who holed up in a rented apartment playing video games for two years and then latched onto a rich woman is pretending to have a powerful background?!"
Gu Chenan's two slaps had completely unhinged Liu Wan, this "little princess" who had never been hit before. She kept lashing out, and it took three security guards using all their strength to keep her firmly in place.
Though her body was restrained, her mouth kept hurling insults.
Words like "loser," "boy toy," "gold digger," "broke," "crappy little shop," and so on kept pouring out of her mouth, leaving everyone in the banquet hall dumbfounded.
Earlier, people had suspected that Gu Chenan might be Su Qianmo's boyfriend, but that was just speculation at most. Now, Liu Wan's words had exposed every aspect of Gu Chenan's background.
Not only did people now know that Gu Chenan was indeed Su Qianmo's boyfriend, but they also learned that his family only owned a small shop.
Inevitably, everyone felt awkward, not for Gu Chenan, but for Su Qianmo.
The mighty CEO of Caiying, in her first public appearance, had her fiancé's background exposed like this. How could Su Qianmo ever show her face in public again?
Listening to the stream of profanities from Liu Wan's mouth, Gu Chenan felt his blood rush to his head.
For a moment, he even thought about unleashing his Primordial One Qi Exercise, breaking free from the security guards, and ending Liu Wan's life right there.
"Slap!"
Just as Gu Chenan was entertaining this thought, another crisp slap echoed through the banquet hall.
Everyone turned to look and saw a shocking scene.
Su Qianmo was standing in front of Liu Wan, her expression icy cold. She stared at Liu Wan with indifferent eyes and said coldly, "Say one more word, and I'll make sure you can never speak again tomorrow!"
Clearly, that slap had come from Su Qianmo herself!
