Seeing the car leaving in its dust, Gu Rou felt a sense of anger, she clenched his fists and cursed a few times. After realizing what she had done, he immediately laughed at herself and walked towards the bus stop.

At five o'clock on Saturday afternoon, Gu Rou arrived at the large shop that had visited as scheduled, and the one who received her was still the elegant and beautiful lady. She had been busy for almost two hours, and the person that appeared in the mirror was a peerlessly beautiful woman who could topple cities and topple nations.

Ji Chen Xi was startled, his handsome face quickly regained its normal look, and replied: "En, not bad."

Therefore, when Ji Chen Xi brought Gu Rou out of the shop, Gu Rou purposely slowed down her footsteps, and that person also ignored her, continuing to walk forward. Gu Rou's mood became even more dismal, to the point that he had already walked all the way to the car, while she was still at the entrance of the shop.

As if noticing her strangeness, he looked deeply at her feet when she finally came to his side. Finally, his gaze shifted to her face, as if indifferent but actually appreciative of her ecstasy for a moment. Then he opened the car door and gestured for her to come in.

Along the way, they were once again silent, only until they reached the location of the royal ball and got out of the carriage, did Ji Chen Xi look at Gu Rou, and slowly raised her arm, giving her an order.

Gu Rou frowned slightly, but in the end, she still reached her hand in and grabbed onto him.

"Remember to smile later, don't always frown, this way others will think that I forcefully kidnapped you." Ji Chen Xi walked with graceful steps, as he said while stepping into the hotel. His tone was casual, but in reality, only he himself knew what he was thinking.

Gu Rou was not in a good mood to begin with, but after hearing this, she scolded her even more secretly. Since she was unhappy, why did she bring her along? She remembered that when Qiu Feng first heard of his invitation, she was even puzzled for a while, not understanding why he would do such a thing.

Based on this person's charisma, she only needed to say that most of them were celebrity artists or famous ladies to accompany him, and most importantly, there were also female employees in the group's PR department. To him, it was all within his reach, but he just used a "favor" to exchange for it. She thought that this person was either mentally ill or mentally ill, but neither seemed to be on the same level as him.

"Also, pay attention. No woman would stand by my side like you." Suddenly, Ji Chen Xi said again, with a slight sneer.

Gu Rou could not help but retort, "Then go ahead and look for them, why are you looking for me!"

"I like it, what about it?" Gu Rou, remember your mission tonight. " Ji Chen Xi quickly responded as well, a faint smile on her lips.

Gu Rou was so angry that she wanted to roll her eyes, this man, was truly a scoundrel! To think that he was dressed so impersonatingly.

In fact, Ji Chen Xi was so stunned by Gu Rou's outfit tonight that he even lost himself in his charm for a moment.

The man was born with a shelf of clothes, and the black set against him was incomparable. He was not as well-dressed as she was, only a simple touch, but handsome and charming. The lady from before had said that she was born beautiful, but she thought that he was the real beauty.

With features that were as sharp as knives, a tall and imposing figure, a noble and cold temperament, all of these didn't hide his enchanting charm. However, thinking about the strange things that he had said, Gu Rou didn't dare to indulge himself.

While they were thinking, the two of them arrived at the scene of the royal ball. The dignitaries, merchants, and celebrities filled the magnificent lobby with a sense of joy and excitement.

Following the appearance of Ji Chen Xi and Gu Rou, everyone turned to look at them one by one. There was astonishment, surprise, admiration, envy and even jealousy.

Ji Chen Xi was as calm and collected as usual. Gu Rou, who rarely faced this kind of situation, could not help but be a little flustered. She subconsciously lowered her head, avoiding the complicated and strange gazes.

However, since she had decided to attend this ball with him, it was destined that she would have to face some situations. As she and Ji Chen Xi walked closer to the center of the hall, more and more attention fell on them, and what caught her by surprise and shocked her even more was that she actually met Le Shao Feng's parents!

Even though she had never seen Le Shao Feng's father before, at this time, the middle-aged man that He Wan Er was carrying, who looked a little similar to Le Shao Feng, made her guess that he was Le Shao Feng's father!

He Wan Er also noticed her. She looked at her with eyes as sharp as knives, filled with anger, contempt and disdain.

That day, she had even told He Wan Er in a majestic tone that she had nothing to do with Ji Chen Xi, but now she was holding Ji Chen Xi's hand to attend the ball instead. How much of a mockery was this!

Almost instinctively, Gu Rou wanted to take out her hand from Ji Chen Xi's arm, but she was pressed so tightly by Ji Chen Xi that she couldn't help but to raise her head and glare at him.

As if he didn't notice her displeasure, Ji Chen Xi glanced at her for a moment before bringing her to the center of the venue to greet the organizer.

Even though Ji Chen Xi had only been in T City for a few short years, his reputation and influence in T City's business world was extremely great. With his powerful family background in the imperial city, he naturally became the target of many people trying to curry favor with him.

After Ji Chen Xi greeted the host of the ball, there were more people who came over to chat with him. Gu Rou's mind was a mess, she forced herself to smile and socialize, but after a while, she was completely unable to remain calm.

So it turned out that other than He Wan Er and her wife, Le Shao Feng had also come. There was also the daughter of the high official that He Wan Er had brought to Gu Rou to demonstrate previously.

Seeing Gu Rou suddenly appear here, Le Shao Feng was first surprised, and then when he saw that she was's female companion, who was even hugging him so intimately, accompanying Ji Chen Xi around the whole group, her face changed even more.

"Shao Feng, there's no need for mom to say that anymore, right? Can you clearly see who she is?" He Wan Er stood beside her son and ridiculed him in a low voice. Although she was angry in her heart, she still thanked the heavens for letting her son see this scene.

Gu Rou, let's see how you can argue now!
