After signing the contract, Ye Wanqing did not leave immediately. Instead, he stayed behind to attend the banquet.

The banquet was held in the name of the Ye’s, so that Ye Wanqing, the shareholder, could meet the employees below. She had also invited the famous figures of other industries to get to know the Mrs. Gu better.

The media had broadcast the transfer of the shares throughout this session. After the broadcast ended, the scandals that Ye Zhixin had caused on the internet over the past few days had disappeared without a trace. Those netizens who had threatened to expose Ye Zhixin's kindergarten results had also disappeared without a trace.

An hour later, a famous blogger began posting about the psychological journey of a fat girl.

From her inferiority complex at puberty to the oppression and discrimination at work, a wave of people started to sympathize with Ye Zhixin and felt that she was pitiful. Even if she had to undergo plastic surgery, falling in love with Mei Mei was still her right.

Everyone seemed to have forgotten that she had participated in the violence on campus. They only felt that she was just a normal, beautiful little girl.

The netizens were like this. Unlike the police, they would get to the bottom of this matter. As long as a new melon came out, their attention would immediately be diverted away.

The banquet was set to be held at Ye’s's own hotel. Ye Wanqing was very tired, so Lu Zhou sent her to the hotel to get some rest.

Gu Jinyuan went to the company's office and rested for two hours at noon. In the afternoon, he concentrated on dealing with the backlog of work.

Today, he left his job half an hour earlier. With Ye Wanqing's identity as her husband, he attended the banquet with her.

When he arrived at the hotel, Ye Wanqing was still sleeping. His entire body was curled up into a ball under the snow-white blanket, looking like an extremely insecure little animal.

Gu Jinyuan wanted her to sleep a little more, so he lifted his blanket and helped her wipe the medicinal herbs. The moment he touched her feet, she woke up.

At first, his eyes were still hazy, but after seeing him, he quickly woke up. He sat up with his messy hair and asked, ”Why did you get off work so early?”

”I'm worried, come over and take a look.”

Gu Jinyuan said as he used a cotton swab to apply the medicine, and just as he touched her ankle he heard her say, ”It's the medicine I applied when I was sleeping, there's no need to use it so frequently.”

She was still yawning, and did not seem to be resisting his touch at all. Gu Jinyuan immediately put the medicine back.

”I got someone to bring the evening gown. Put it on first.”

Ye Wanqing originally wanted to say that she didn't need to, but after thinking about how only famous people would be here tonight, even though she could only sit on a wheelchair, as a Mrs. Gu, she couldn't dress in shabby clothes to embarrass him, so she agreed.

Her feet could not use much strength, and Gu Jinyuan had even helped her change the dress.

Because he had defined their relationship as a partnership last night, Ye Wanqing was much more at ease. When it was time to lean on him for support, he would lean on him without feeling the slightest bit of embarrassment.

The evening dress was royal blue, with a diamond necklace to match with it. It was very grand and beautiful.

After changing into the formal attire, Gu Jinyuan asked the stylist to help her do her hair.

The stylist helped her tie up her hair. She had two strands of hair at her temples, which were ironed into small curls. It gave her the feeling of a retro mixed beauty.

The suit Gu Jinyuan was wearing tonight was also sapphire blue, looking like a companion dress for her.

He was tall and his back was very straight. Standing there like a pine tree, he was extremely eye-catching. Ye Wanqing looked at him and could not help but give him a big thumbs up.

Her eyes were filled with undisguised admiration, and her words were straightforward. Without that shyness, they seemed to be brothers.

Gu Jinyuan walked over and kissed the top of her head: ”Mrs. Gu, you look pretty good tonight too.”
