"Isn't this a bit too low-key? It doesn't suit your style." Gu Jiaru's eyes were full of doubt.

Han Meixi did not care about this suggestion, but continued to speak to the sales clerk at the side: "This is it, help me get one S number."

After saying that, he turned around and said, "If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be going tonight. I would rather disappear in the corner, I don't want anyone to notice me."

"Why?" Gu Jiaru's face was full of doubt.

"Because …" Han Meixi originally wanted to explain, but looking at the time, she said, "Aiya, I don't have time to explain it to you, I'm going to go change."

Hearing that, Gu Jiaru became even more suspicious. Usually, Han Meixi would never be able to hide her thoughts, isn't it a little too abnormal today?

But after Han Meixi came out of the locker room, Gu Jiaru felt that she wouldn't be able to hide her thoughts.

Even if the color and style of her clothes were very low key, her skin and appearance would sell her out. No matter what kind of crowd she was in, she would probably have the highest rate of return.

As expected, right after entering the banquet hall, Gu Jiaru felt the gazes of some unfamiliar men rush towards Han Meixi.

"Do you want to find a place to sit?" Gu Jiaru said as she lowered her head slightly, she truly did not understand why she was here today. Previously, in order to avoid such a scene, Han Meixi had insisted on bringing her shopping to eat, but today, the atmosphere was even more passionate.

Han Meixi looked at Gu Jiaru in shock: "Aren't you looking for your department's colleagues first?"

Gu Jiaru laughed bitterly: "We don't have a good relationship, let's just forget about it …"

"Hahahaha, you're so beautiful and you're also someone my brother directly sent over. It would be strange if our relationship was good!" Han Meixi laughed until her eyes were curved.

It was only then that Gu Jiaru realized that she was deliberately finding an excuse to tease him. She simply looked at her gloomily: "You still haven't told me why you're dressed so low-key today."

"Because …" Just as Han Meixi was speaking, her eyes suddenly froze in front of him, and she quickly pulled Gu Jiaru towards the opposite direction, "Don't look back, don't look back."

"What?" Hearing her words, Gu Jiaru became even more curious and wanted to turn back.

She raised her hand and grabbed Gu Jiaru's chin, wanting to pull her gaze back on him.

However, Gu Jiaru had already spotted something about ten meters away. A man with a pretty face who wore a white suit walked towards the two of them, and his gaze did not move away from the back of Han Meixi's head.

"There are suitors?" Regarding this, Gu Jiaru was not surprised at all.

However, Han Meixi just dragged Gu Jiaru and walked forward, and even lowered her voice: "What suitors, it's so annoying, these young masters are really childish!"

"To be able to annoy our Eldest Miss Han to such an extent, she's definitely not an ordinary person." Gu Jiaru said while grinning.

Just then, Han Meixi suddenly stopped in her tracks, her eyes staring straight ahead.

Today... It was really abnormal.

"Hello." Gu Jiaru pulled Han Meixi's hand.

"Big brother Yi …" Han Meixi looked as if she had lost her soul, her face had a tinge of bashfulness written all over it.

After Gu Jiaru heard this, she changed her confused look and understood everything. So it turned out that the person in front of him was the Young Master of the Han Family, Han Boyi, that Han Meixi had been yearning for all this while.

Thinking about it, Gu Jiaru could not help but look at it a little more. In her heart, she couldn't help but compare himself to Han Yunshang. He was even more indifferent towards strangers, and her eyes were more worried than Han Yunshang's.

"You came too, find a place to sit." From start to finish, Han Boyi did not even glance at Gu Jiaru, but only spoke neither coldly nor warmly.

"That... Big brother Yi, can I buy you a drink? " Instead of her usual arrogant appearance, Han Meixi was like a gentle little kitten, almost causing Gu Jiaru's eyes to fall out of their sockets.

Han Boyi did not immediately agree. Instead, he was silent for three to five seconds before he slowly nodded his head.

If it was Gu Jiaru facing such a far-fetched situation, she might feel extremely awkward. But Han Meixi evidently did not feel anything, as she obediently stepped forward and held Han Boyi's hand, and walked towards the side.

Gu Jiaru noticed that Han Boyi's hands froze for a few seconds, but he did not struggle free, and allowed himself to be pulled.

Out of politeness?

Thinking about it, Gu Jiaru couldn't help but worry for Han Meixi. If a man didn't care about her, he really didn't know if she would have a good result.

Just then, Han Meixi seemed to have thought of something, she turned and said to Gu Jiaru: "No, I can't leave you alone here."

"No problem, go ahead." Gu Jiaru smiled and waved her hand. She had long heard from Han Meixi that she liked Han Boyi, and now that the person she loved was right in front of her, it would be rude for her to disturb him again.

seemed to have other plans as well. He turned his head and said to Han Boyi with a wronged expression, "Brother Yi, can you wait for me for a moment? I'll find you after I settle her down."

Hearing that, Gu Jiaru was depressed to death, with Han Boyi's reaction just now, she would probably not wait for Han Meixi.

This silly lass was really something. She couldn't care less about him at this time.

However, what surprised Gu Jiaru yet again was that, Han Boyi's lips slightly parted as she said indifferently, "Alright."

"Alright." Han Meixi's face blossomed with a smile as he hopped back to Gu Jiaru's side. He did not forget to say to Han Boyi, "Then I'll be right back."

"Hey, why are you settling me down? I'm just looking for a place to sit." Gu Jiaru poked Han Meixi and said resentfully.

The smile on Han Meixi's face did not fade, "That won't do, my main goal today is to settle you down. As for Brother Yi, he will all be mine sooner or later."

"Does your family and Han Family have to be married off?" Gu Jiaru suddenly thought of what Han Yunshang had said before, and thinking of the relationship between Hanxiuqing and herself, she could not help but ask.

Han Meixi's reaction was much larger than what she had imagined, "What do you mean by 'marriage alliance'? Don't even think about it! If my brother likes someone, he will definitely marry someone else. Young Miss Han Family, that person is obviously not the same as my brother. "

Gu Jiaru looked at Han Meixi in astonishment. She only felt that these things had nothing to do with her, why did she need to explain it to him so fiercely?

"Hey, brother!" I've finally found you! " Han Meixi's eyes suddenly lit up, and waved her hand.

Gu Jiaru also raised her head and saw Han Yunshang, who was half lying on the sofa, doing the same thing he did when he pushed the door open yesterday.

Her slender fingers were holding the wine cup, it was really alluring …

Gu Jiaru shook her head, thinking to herself, what am I thinking, how can a man be associated with seducing others?

"Hmm?" Han Yunshang replied and raised his head, but his gaze was on Gu Jiaru, sizing her up from top to bottom with interest.

This kind of probing gaze made Gu Jiaru a little embarrassed, and she lowered her head to pinch the hem of her skirt.

"It's up to you, don't bully her!" Han Meixi pushed Gu Jiaru to sit opposite to him.

Then, as if he felt that he hadn't made enough arrangements, he continued: "I still have a handsome brother to take care of. Tonight you are not allowed to have any other women around you, otherwise I will never finish with you!"

"Meixi..." Hearing this, Gu Jiaru felt a headache. This was a kind of moral kidnapping. Furthermore, she had no relationship with Han Yunshang to begin with, so it would be even more inappropriate to stop him from flirting with other women.

"Did you hear that!?" Han Meixi did not hear Han Yunshang's affirmative answer, and continued to speak without stopping.

"I promise you." When Han Yunshang said this, the corner of his mouth hooked up into a faint smile.

Han Meixi raised her eyebrows, and put on a "I understand you" look, then waved her hand casually: "Then I'll go drink with big brother Yi, don't call me if there's nothing wrong."

"He doesn't look promising." Han Yunshang said angrily to his sister.

After Han Meixi left, Gu Jiaru said in a low voice: "If you have anything to do, go ahead."

"Hmm?" Han Yunshang drank a mouthful of wine, and as if he couldn't hear what Gu Jiaru said, he got up and moved to her side, softly asking: "What did you say just now, say it again?"

Gu Jiaru felt the male Qi around him, and actually felt a sense of nervousness and guilt. After a long while, she slowly continued with her mosquito-like voice, "Go back to your work, don't worry about me."

"After hearing what you said, I do have something I need to busy myself with." After saying this, Han Yunshang finished all the remaining red wine in his cup in one gulp.

Gu Jiaru glanced at him and felt a bit guilty. He helped him so much, wasn't his tone just now a little too bad? He couldn't be angry, right?

But, at the moment of Gu Jiaru's uneasiness, Han Yunshang had grabbed her neck, pulled her into his embrace, and lowered his head to taste the entire cup of wine in his mouth.

A sweet and cool feeling instantly filled her mouth, making Gu Jiaru feel dizzy.

Everyone is drunk.

So that's what he meant.

Being gently kissed by Han Yunshang made Gu Jiaru almost forget that she was still in front of everyone. When she finally reacted, she realized that her face was flushed red and her hand was tightly pressed against his chest.

Han Yunshang held onto her wrist and chuckled again.

"What are you laughing at?" Gu Jiaru said angrily.

Han Yunshang glanced down at her collar and frowned.

Gu Jiaru followed his gaze and looked down, and did not find anything wrong with it, only a faintly discernible line of work. Although it was a little low-key, it was not exaggerated at all.

However, Han Yunshang still appeared to be unsatisfied, he took off his jacket and draped it over Gu Jiaru's body.

His unique scent lingered around Gu Jiaru, as if she was in his arms. Gu Jiaru couldn't help but think back to the first time she met him. In the swimming pool, he smelled like this.

"You …" What made Gu Jiaru even more unfathomable was that he had even carefully buttoned her up with her eyes lowered, concealing her exposed collarbone.
