Gu Chaohan appeared nonchalant, as if nobody else was round. He spoke to Xia Yangyang, “Include me.”

Xia Yangyang nodded earlier than she greeted the remainder of them. Then, she left with Gu Chaohan to the balcony.

It was quiet as soon as he had shut the glass doorways. It was as if that they had been remoted from the noise and crowd.

Gu Chaohan requested, “The place did you go simply now? I used to be in search of you.”

Simply now…

Xia Yangyang’s cheeks heated up involuntarily. Luckily, evening had fallen.

She lied and mentioned, “After you left, I heard footsteps outdoors the room. I believed somebody was coming so I left. I walked to the backyard, however I misplaced my approach.”

Xia Yangyang grinned sheepishly. “Your backyard is absolutely large.”

Gu Chaohan frowned at Xia Yangyang’s cheongsam in response.

She was clearly telling a lie. His mom had simply planted cherries just a few days in the past. To stop any harm, the backyard had been barricaded.

Though he had no concept why Xia Yangyang lied to him, he didn’t expose her. “Is your arm okay?”

Xia Yangyang glanced on the scratches on her arm. She smiled and replied, “It’s nice.”

Gu Chaohan nodded earlier than he probed, “Your father and sister are right here at this time. So why did it’s a must to climb to sneak in when you can have walked in as a visitor?”

She turned embarrassed. “I… it’s some work-related matter.”

Xia Yangyang didn’t imply to maintain it a secret, however she had no concept how she ought to inform him.

Gu Chaohan answered, “If it isn’t handy, overlook it.”

Right now, somebody more likely to be his pal beckoned Gu Chaohan.

Xia Yangyang mentioned, “Go forward. I’m leaving quickly.”

He nodded earlier than he left. “Search for me should you want something.”

She nodded and Gu Chaohan left.

Xia Yangyang heaved a sigh of aid.

Really, she wasn’t acquainted with this ice mountain in any respect. Apart from their disagreeable first encounter, that they had no interactions earlier than.

Who would have anticipated that he would assist her at this time?

It was chilly on the balcony with the evening breeze blowing. And the fabric of the cheongsam was skinny.

However Xia Yangyang had no want to enter the corridor.

She noticed Gu Qichen a far distance away. Regardless of the space, a lightweight appeared to shine on him wherever he went. She might see him even when he was surrounded by folks like a jade tree amongst flowers.

He held a glass of champagne in his hand, with a horde of women clustered round him.

Xia Yangyang was upset and bothered.

“Xia Yangyang, I didn’t know you have been so scheming.”

She was about to depart when Xia Weiwei ambushed her, wanting mutinous.

Xia Yangyang replied, “Xia Weiwei, I’m your older sister. Don’t use that tone to speak to me.”

“Xia Yangyang, cease pretending to be my sister. You’ve been a burden all these years. I’m warning you now. I will likely be Mrs Gu sooner or later. Don’t attempt to vie with me.”

Xia Yangyang retorted, “Even with out me, I don’t suppose that place can be yours. There are dozens of women right here tonight, did Gu Qichen even look at you?”

Xia Weiwei was infuriated by her remarks. She had come dressed to the nines at this time however Gu Qichen didn’t even spare her a glance. She couldn’t even battle her approach by way of all the women to get close to to him. So she might solely vent her frustration on Xia Yangyang.
