Gu Xi Nian still had a second half of his sentence that he hadn't said.

Gu Xi Nian was actually openly protecting Wang Xuanruo. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have spent so much time and effort to gain the spokesperson's resources. He might have even pushed aside the event of the product being released.

Hehe, Wang Xuanruo, let's wait and see! Don't think that you're amazing just because Director Gu is backing you up! Xun Nianwei fiercely recited this in her heart.

”Thank you, Director Gu. I will definitely punish Lil 'Xie well.” Xun Nianwei was not in the mood to participate in the rest of the banquet, so she called out Little Xie and left.

”I'm afraid that Little Xie's life won't be good after this. I wonder if I'll be able to see her again at the company.” Wang Xueruo told Little Wu at her side that she had also returned to the banquet, where Yu Meng was still waiting for her.

Everyone took advantage of the situation and left, leaving only Gu Xi Nian and Gu Qian.

”You … Won't you go back to the dinner? ” Actually, Gu Qian wanted to ask why he was here, but it didn't seem like there was a need.

”Hm, no rush.”

”Thank you for today. Otherwise, Xuanruo's murder wouldn't have been revealed so quickly.” Thank you for helping me.

”If you want to thank me, come and dance with me at dinner.”

”Ah?” ”But I'm a staff member, not a guest …”

”I must not waste such beautiful clothes today.” Gu Xi Nian's handsome face suddenly drew closer. Gu Qian was so frightened that he took a step back, but he realized that there was no way out. He could only watch as Gu Xi Nian's face drew closer and closer, nervously closing his eyes.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xi Nian just leaned over and helped Gu Qian remove the dust on his hair.

Gu Xi Nian suddenly laughed, ”Let's go. I'll bring you along. Today, you look even better than a celebrity.”

Just like that, Gu Qian was dragged into the garden by Gu Xi. This was the first time Gu Qian had attended such a banquet. They drank wine and all of them wore bright and beautiful clothes, talking and laughing merrily.

The entire banquet was held in the garden of the manor's lawn. At the center was the dance floor, and Gu Qian was brought to the edge of the dance floor by Gu Xi Nian.

”Gu Xi Nian, I better not go. What if Yu Xuan has something to talk to me about!” ”Work is still the most important!”

”Don't be afraid.” Gu Xi Nian brought Gu Qian to the dance floor, and they held hands. Gu Xi Nian placed Gu Qian's hand on his shoulder, and his own hand on Gu Qian's waist. He was a very respectful gentleman, so he didn't fully touch Gu Qian's waist.

”I will step on you …” Gu Qian was slightly troubled as he quietly said this.

”It doesn't matter.” At this moment, the distance between the two was extremely close.

When the dance started, Gu Xi Nian felt that Gu Qian's steps had become stiff. He comforted her softly, ”Just follow me, left, right, left, right...” Gradually, under Gu Xi Nian's guidance, Gu Qian's steps became more and more proficient and lighter.

Gu Qian had been a very good tutor since she was young. Gu Qian's mother had also taught her to learn ballet dancing. Her natural temperament and figure were both outstanding. With just a few steps, she was almost one with the music.

Gu Qing's exquisite figure, when compared to his dancing steps, was even more lithe and graceful.

”You see, isn't it very good?” Gu Qian raised his head and met Gu Xi Nian's gaze. Gu Xi Nian's eyes were gentle, and the corners of his mouth were smiling, exuding a faint radiance like a piece of warm and beautiful jade.

”Yes.” I didn't expect that after not dancing for so many years, trying again would actually feel different. ” Gu Qian's face was filled with the excitement of a little girl. Under the twinkling lights, the dimples were faintly discernible, making him look exceptionally beautiful.

It really was a pair.

”You did well in this event.”
