Chapter 139 - To Be His Lady
Once Lu Junxuan left, Cheng Liyue thought that she could come out from Gong Yexiao's tight embrace, but the man above his suddenly became angry. Her long fingers clamped on her chin and he coldly forced her to raise his head.
It coldly smashed into her face, ”Cheng Liyue, you would rather ask him for help than look for me?”
Cheng Liyue didn't know how to reply. Lu Jun was Lu Junxuan's uncle, she thought that it was only by finding Lu Junxuan that she could get close to him. She really didn't think that he would appear.
”Dressed like this, you still want to go to the banquet? If you want to go, you have to dress me up properly. ” Gong Yexiao lowered his head, seeing that she was still dressed in a set, he felt disgusted.
Cheng Liyue shook her head, ”I was just going to have a chat with Lu Hai, I don't want to partic.i.p.ate in this banquet.”
”Now, you have to be my partner to accompany me in, so don't embarra.s.s me by dressing up nicely.”
”I …” Cheng Liyue was speechless.
”Do you think that just because you want to see Lu Hai, he will be able to see you? If you didn't have an ident.i.ty, he wouldn't even give you a minute. ” Gong Yexiao coldly reminded her.
Therefore, as Gong Yexiao's companion, his status would definitely be enough to give her face.
The banquet was still early, and would usually last until around 10 pm, so it was still enough time to go to the Gift Shop. Cheng Liyue was pulled into the sports car by him, and only then did she react and ask, ”Why are you here?”
”I'm on the list, too.” Gong Yexiao replied indifferently.
Cheng Liyue kept feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it. She just felt that this man's appearance was a little strange.
Nearby, there was a high-end evening dress club. Gong Yexiao led Cheng Liyue in, and when the Female Manager saw that Gong Yexiao's ident.i.ty was not ordinary, he immediately called out to him.
”Don't worry about the price, just choose the best one to give her.” Gong Yexiao spoke out to the Female Manager.
”Alright! ”Okay, miss, this way please.”
Cheng Liyue could not help but ask curiously, ”Do you rent the gowns here?”
”We can rent the dresses here, but we can also sell them. We only have one evening gown, a custom-made evening gown that is purely handmade and of high quality. Normally, those that come to our door will buy it.”
”Then I'll rent it!” Cheng Liyue said. She didn't need to buy it anyway, so it was a waste of money.
The manager immediately said, ”Miss, with your ident.i.ty, would you mind wearing an evening gown? Besides, it's easy to get a cardigan at a dinner party, and that's not so good. ”
Gong Yexiao decided on the side, ”Don't bother with her thoughts, just choose the one that suits her.”
”Sure, miss, this way please.” The manager gestured to Cheng Liyue to invite him in.
Cheng Liyue bit her lips. Gong Yexiao had really gotten used to the lives of rich people, he did not treat money as money anymore. He could obviously rent it, why would he buy it?
In front of a row of custom-made evening gowns, the manager had chosen a simple, elegant, naked pink one for her. The one word design was grand and simple.
Fortunately, Cheng Liyue was able to accept this evening gown, so she decided to give it a try. Right now, she was anxious to see Lu Hai, so she wouldn't care about the dress selection, she only wanted a set of clothes that could let Gong Yexiao enter the arena.
