C7 (2/2)

Xin Nianyin touched the suitable dress on her body, thinking back to what Gu Jianming had said in the car just now. The corner of her mouth unconsciously curled up.

That's not right! Why should she be happy!

Noticing her own strange mood, she immediately suppressed the smile on her face.

Ye Zichen glanced at the person behind him with a guilty conscience. Fortunately, the makeup artists were arguing intensely, so they didn't notice the change that happened on her side.

Looking at her exquisite face in the mirror, Xin Nianyin unconsciously sighed.

She wasn't stupid. After spending the past two days together with Gu Qi, she had roughly understood the situation of the Gu family.

She also understood that Gu Bo's insistence on making her stay was related to the situation of the Gu family.

However, that guy Gu Qi refused to explain himself, and his attitude towards her was very ambiguous, making her unable to clarify the relationship between the two of them.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but frown.

”Knock! Knock!” The sound of knocking on the door interrupted the intense argument between the makeup artists.

The door opened from the outside and Gu Qi appeared in the doorway, looking even more handsome in a tailored suit.

Xin Nianyin sighed in her heart. If this guy didn't have a heart of flowers, he could be considered a genius.

”You're not done yet?” Gu Qi glanced at Xin Xinyin, and their eyes met in midair. It seemed a little strange.

”Third Young Master …” The makeup artists went over to her in an attempt to please her. ”The young madam's makeup has already been done, all that's left is her hair …”

”Hair?” Gu Min raised her eyebrows. This time, her gaze directly fell on Xin Nianyin. She sized her up and commented, ”Isn't this pretty good? What else is there to do?”

Xin Nianyin had long, black hair that naturally draped over her shoulders. It accentuated her beauty, making it hard for people to look away.

Even though Gu Bo was used to seeing all kinds of beauties, he couldn't help but want to praise them in his heart.

”This …” The makeup artists looked at each other in embarrassment. The third young master had already opened his mouth, so what could they say?

A few makeup artists smiled and responded. Then, they packed up their things and left the two of them with space.

Xin Nianyin uneasily combed her long hair. Somehow, her palms were covered in a thin layer of sweat.

”Hey, since you want me to accompany you to the banquet, you should at least tell me what the occasion is today, right?” Xin Nianyin said hoarsely.

Don't tell her anything, don't sell her in a moment, she smiled and counted the money for Gu.

”It's not a big occasion.” Gu Qi's eyes flashed, and a casual smile still hung on his face, making him look like a popinjay, ”Just follow me in a while.”

As he said this, he extended his right hand towards Xin Nianyin and slightly bent down, making a gesture of invitation.

Xin Nianyin pursed her lips. If she had the choice, she really wanted to smack this guy's face.

Unfortunately, she didn't have any other way out, so she could only resist the urge to grab him and pull him onto her arm.

What Xin Nianyin didn't know was that she wouldn't be able to let go of him for the rest of her life.

The banquet was held at the outdoor venue of the hotel. People gathered in groups of twos and threes and chatted as they drank wine and lit up the place with brilliant lights. There was a polite yet distant smile on their faces.
