The Zuo family mansion is located in the most magnificent area of ​​the 29th district of the main star's capital city.

The interior is decorated in a simple and elegant style.

The interior is understated yet luxurious, filled with a dazzling array of exquisite ornaments.

A two-meter-tall luminous pearl, carved into the shape of a lamp, hangs above the main hall.

The double-layered blue velvet curtains draped to the floor; these few items alone were enough to demonstrate the Zuo family's high status and prestige.

The hall was filled with joy.

And at this moment.

Inside the small building belonging to the descendants of the Zuo family.

Gu Siyu was exhausted. She rubbed her temples, a feeling of unease rising in her heart.

For some reason, she's been in a bad mood these past few days, even though she was really looking forward to having a child. Now, after becoming pregnant and seeing Gu Youyou again, she's even more confused.

As Gu Youyou said.

The Zuo family had high hopes for her child, but no one cared about her being pregnant.

Even Zuo Zhijing only cares about the children.

Let her focus on her pregnancy and not worry about the banquet.

She clenched her fists.

The fingertips pressed so hard they left red marks on the palm, and the person didn't notice the face spell that lit up on the back of their neck.

at this time.

The venue is located not far from the Zuo family mansion.

Qu Jian'er put on her mask and sunglasses, straightened her black suit that she had bought from a street vendor for 199 yuan, and looked every bit the model of a service worker for her employer.

In contrast, consider Zuo Chen.

He was dressed very elegantly.

Wearing a custom-made casual outfit, the fabric of which was not visible, yet it had a luxurious sheen that exuded a decadent, extravagant feel.

Zuo Chen pursed his lips and asked, "Where are the clothes I gave you?"

Qu Jian'er said without batting an eye: "I put it online for sale. Of course, I didn't want to turn it into money. As a bodyguard, I have to act like I can't afford designer brands."

Zuo Chen closed his eyes and stopped speaking.

Qu Jian'er touched her face: "Speaking of which, if I return to my original state, will it be difficult to face the Gu family?"

Zuo Chen adjusted his glasses: "Today is a family banquet. If it were your other identity, I probably wouldn't have an excuse to bring you in. But at the state banquet soon, you can do whatever you want."

He knew that if Qu Jian'er followed him back to the Zuo family, no matter how well she hid herself, her identity would eventually be discovered.

The title of "Crimson Lady" is not yet fully established and is far less convincing than Qu Jian'er's own identity.

and.

He also wanted outsiders to know his own secret: the master he kept by his side was Qu Jian'er.

It is commonly known as "going through the open" or "taking the obvious path".

Qu Jian'er thought about it and agreed.

Zuo Chen added, "Your departure from the variety show and return to Earth will be discovered by those with ulterior motives sooner or later. If you don't want to attract too much attention, you can use me as a shield."

Qu Jian'er looked suspicious.

Back then, she asked Zuo Chen to take her back to the production crew.

Zuo Chen had always been indifferent and casual, but now he actually offered to help her.

He's no longer the lazy guy he used to be.

They truly are best friends who would risk their lives for each other!

But then she thought about it again and felt that something was wrong, but she still couldn't figure out what it was.

She looked at Zuo Chen's face.

He's as incredibly handsome as ever.

He exudes pure male hormones.

He doesn't need to do anything; his very existence exudes a strong sense of power.

Qu Jian'er jumped out of the car: "Boss, please."

Zuo Chen looked helplessly at the person who was so engrossed in the role.

The robot, who had been temporarily brought in to act as a driver, was very annoyed and scratched his metal head.

The robot was completely bewildered; the way these two interacted was nothing like that of an employer and employee.

Instead, they seemed like a couple who knew each other very well.

The robot looked at the venue, which was reserved for VIPs, and nodded in conclusion: "The tastes of the rich."

***

Most of the people present at the meeting were Zuo Zhijing's peers, rather than his elders.

Zuo Chen appeared.

Someone noticed it immediately.

They all looked at Zuo Chen.

Many people have never seen Zuo Chen's true face and are unsure if the person appearing here is indeed Zuo Chen.

Zuo Zhijing exclaimed in surprise, "Big Brother!?"

He knew that Zuo Chen's condition hadn't been very good lately.

so.

He had only passed the message on to the other party and hadn't expected Zuo Chen to make a special appearance.

Everyone realized what was happening.

soon.

Zuo Chen was then greeted by a group of people.

Zuo Zhijing stood at the back of the crowd and sighed softly.

He had naturally heard about yesterday's assassination attempt, but for years he had avoided the complexities between powerful families.

They left the game of power.

He was unable to offer Zuo Chen any help.

Just then.

Qu Jian'er said softly, "Have more children. He's so lonely, he can only enjoy the joys of family life with you."

Before Zuo Chen was surrounded, she tried to protect him single-handedly.

Who would have thought?

Those people who seemed weak and helpless actually possessed extraordinary fighting power, and they swept past her without a trace.

She squeezed to the side.

Zuo Zhijing nodded emphatically, knowing his elder brother's loneliness: "I will try my best... Who are you?"

Qu Jian'er pushed her sunglasses up to her forehead and whispered to the person, "Bodyguard."

Her cautious yet feignedly relaxed demeanor made it seem as if she were performing a spy exchange of information.

Zuo Zhijing thought he had misheard, so he repeated, "Bodyguard?"

Qu Jian'er nodded emphatically.

He put his sunglasses back on.

Zuo Zhijing looked at him with disbelief: "When did my brother hire a bodyguard?"

Before Qu Jian'er could answer.

Zuo Zhijing's attention was completely drawn to the newcomer, so he rushed over and carefully helped him up.

Qu Jian'er followed the gaze of the crowd and saw the first customer at her stall—Gu Siyu.
