In the evening, before the charity bazaar began, employees were asked to record the items to be auctioned off.
"Sister Xia, do you need to change your clothes?"
Xiao Wei saw that Xia Yu was still wearing her usual clothes, which did not match with the scene at the royal ball. Although they were members of the organizers, Xia Yu was still the wife of Gong Jia, so she had to appear at the royal ball.
Xia Yu thought, it was too late to change clothes at the villa.
"Forget it. We're not going to the royal ball. Clothing doesn't matter."
Xia Yu rejected her tactfully, then carried a pile of information and was about to rush over. She walked to the elevator and opened the door, allowing Xia Yu to directly enter. Because she was holding a box in her hands, she could not see who was standing in the elevator.
Suddenly, there was a barrier in front of him, causing Xia Yu to think that she had bumped into someone, "Sorry, did I bump into you? "I didn't notice anyone inside. I'm very sorry …"
Xia Yu kept apologizing, and at that moment, the box in her hands was suddenly picked up. She raised her head and looked, and what she saw was Gong Qin's figure.
"Gong Qin?" Xia Yu was surprised, at this time, Gong Qin was still in the company.
"Weren't you supposed to be at the royal ball? Why are you here?"
"Come back and get some information." Gong Qin spoke indifferently as the elevator door slowly closed. Xia Yu watched as the thing she was holding was taken away with empty hands. She couldn't help but say: "Let me take it!"
"We're going to the royal ball together?"
"Take my car." Gong Qin practically said it with a certain tone, ignoring Xia Yu's decision. Even if Xia Yu wanted to refute, it was already too late.
The elevator door was opened with a "ding" as they reached the underground parking lot.
… ….
Walking in front of the car, Gong Qin first put everything on the back seat and the two sat in the car. Only then did Xia Yu see that Gong Qin was wearing a brand-new suit, which was very suitable for him, and it made him look even more handsome.
On the contrary, when Xia Yu saw how she dressed and was being looked at by others, she did not seem to match up to Gong Qin at all.
If she had known earlier that she would be wearing elegant and dignified clothes, she would have immediately gone to the royal ball. At most, she would just hide in the dark and not appear at the party.
Just as Xia Yu was thinking, the car started.
The city was intoxicated by the night as the car drove on.
Xia Yu looked out of the window, her heart filled with worry. When she finally reacted, she realized that the car was driving in the opposite direction of the royal ball. Gong Qin, did you remember the wrong place? "
"Let's go somewhere first." he said.
"But it's already too late …" Xia Yu looked at the time, there was only half an hour left before the ball started. As the host, Gong Qin had to make an opening speech, if he was late, it would not be good.
Gong Qin did not answer and instead quickly drove the car. After a while, it stopped at the Golden Seat Gate.
Xia Yu looked at the golden seat, she could not help but be startled, shopping at a special counter in the middle of the night?
"Wait, this shouldn't be the time to do this, Gong Qin …"
When Gong Qin got off the car, Xia Yu had no choice but to follow and try to stop him. Because it was too late...
Gong Qin grabbed Xia Yu's wrist, and walked inside, saying: "Keep quiet, follow me." His imposing manner was so domineering that no one could refute him. This was his true character.
Gong Qin dragged Xia Yu to the cabinet and said: "Pick one that suits her."
Only now did Xia Yu realize that Gong Qin had brought her here to buy clothes. She could not help but feel her face heat up. As the Gong Jia's Madam, she did not know what to do.
"I'm sorry … I didn't think of it. "
Xia Yu felt guilty.
If she could consider it more carefully … Would it be better to stand by her side?
Gong Qin's eyes were gentle as he reached out with his hand to push her hair behind his ear and touched her face and said: "I want everyone to know that you're outstanding. I want you to stand by my side, not behind the scenes. " Gong Qin's words were extremely serious.
Xia Yu was startled, hearing these words from his mouth made her feel like she was being admitted.
… ….
In the fitting room, Xia Yu wore a selected set of clothes. The cut was simple and neat, it did not look complicated like a dress, but it did not lack etiquette. For her, it was just the right outfit.
Xia Yu opened the door to the changing room and walked in front of Gong Qin.
This seemed to be the first time she asked his opinion, "You …. What do you think? " It was originally a trivial matter, but now that he had done it, he felt his heart beat faster.
"Very pretty."
Gong Qin squinted his eyes and nodded. However, when her gaze landed on her legs, her smooth and fair legs seemed to reveal a bit too many parts …
"Then this one, we can't waste any more time."
Xia Yu immediately made a decision.
Gong Qin frowned slightly. He was a little dissatisfied, but he did not express it.
… ….
In the royal ball, the opening ceremony was obviously about to begin. The crowd clamored, but it had not yet begun.
"Where's the Palace Owner?"
"I can't get in touch."
"..." Chen Qing frowned. Ever since the incident that day, her vacation had also been cancelled and she did not go back home. Thus, she decided to directly go to work at the company to deal with the issue of the royal ball.
"Alright then..." Chen Qing walked to the other side and called Xia Yu. Since she couldn't contact the owner, Xia Yu could naturally contact her. Furthermore, Xia Yu should have arrived early, and had not arrived yet. From the looks of it, the two of them were together.
When Xia Yu heard the urgent call, she could not help but be anxious.
"We'll be there in fifteen minutes or so. We need to stabilize the situation first." Xia Yu was anxious.
Chen Qing agreed and told the organizers that there would be a host on stage who would delay the start of the banquet.
In the venue.
Ye Yiwen was dressed in a silver evening gown, making her seem even taller. She found a quiet place to sit and looked at the stage.
"Excuse me, is this Miss Ye Yiwen?"
A man appeared and asked politely with a smile.
"I am." Ye Yiwen nodded. She had been chatted about it at the royal ball so she was not surprised. She greeted her politely.
The man then pulled out a chair and sat beside Ye Yiwen.
Ye Yiwen frowned. Ordinary people would not so abruptly come into contact without permission. She looked up at the man, at her smiling face, and for some reason she felt a flash of boredom in her heart.
Hello, I'm Ji Yifan. The man stretched out his hand, wanting to shake it politely.
"I'm a reporter."
"A reporter?" Ye Yiwen raised his eyebrows, and grabbed onto his hand. After a few short seconds, he released his hand, but did not expect the man to hold hers. He secretly exerted strength to not let her take his hand away. "Mr. Ji, it's a bit over the top."
The man smiled, looked at Ye Yiwen's hands and said, "I heard that the twins have the same DNA. Did you know that?"
