July, for some people, is a magical and eagerly anticipated month.
It is filled with longing, similar to the infinite yearning people have for their faith.
The yearly celebration of Liushi Restaurant had been on the agenda well in advance, and every aspect, from the decorations to the printing of the invitations, was personally overseen by Liao Feiyi.
That showed its importance.
Liushi Restaurant had become a gathering place for the elite of C City.
The cause was Gu Jiangnian.
It was said that at one time, a capitalist sought Gu Jiangnian, exhausting all connections and inquiries to no avail. Disheartened, he went into Liushi for a drink to soothe his frustration, only to encounter Gu Jiangnian himself—a windfall gained without effort.
Thereafter, a certain rumor spread throughout the C City business community, claiming that Liao Feiyi's relationship with Gu Jiangnian was not insignificant.
Some even said Liao Feiyi was Gu Jiangnian's woman.
