Chapter 56 The Banquet Begins
Chen Nanfeng drove Ye Shuyi to the Lai Yuen Shopping Centre in Causeway Bay.
He asked the clerk to make an evening dress according to Ye Shuyi's figure and temperament.
"No problem. This lady has a great figure and excellent temperament." The clerk praised her repeatedly.
That fashion designer is a top authority in Hong Kong.
She skillfully measured Ye Shuyi in several dimensions and then went to choose suitable clothes.
"Chen Nanfeng, are these custom-made clothes?" Ye Shuyi asked.
"It's too late, but I can find the most suitable one based on your body shape."
"oh."
After a while, several sets of luxurious clothes were picked out, and the clerk warmly invited Ye Shuyi to choose.
The first set is a brick-inlaid aqua blue gradient fishtail skirt, which makes her look as graceful as a mermaid when she wears it, and is paired with silver high heels.
The second set is a bright red deep V off-shoulder long dress, which makes her look like a blooming warm red rose, charming and flamboyant.
The third set is a sky blue cheongsam with an ancient style and charm. Wearing it, you will look like a classical beauty walking out of a painting.
The fourth set is a champagne-colored silk satin long dress with a hollow back design, which is as smooth as liquid and embroidered with a phoenix. The headdress is covered with pearls and diamonds.
In short, the condoms are exquisite and high-end, and you will become a queen when you wear them.
"How about choosing one?" Chen Nanfeng said.
Ye Shuyi really couldn't choose for a moment. They all looked good and were several levels higher than what she was wearing now.
Chen Nanfeng then said, "Why not just take the last one and pack up the rest."
Ye Shuyi had no objection and went into the fitting room holding the skirt.
After a while, she came out, appearing like a runaway princess.
There was a little blush on the girl's pretty face. She was wearing a champagne-colored evening dress with a high waistline, which perfectly showed Ye Shuyi's perfect waist-to-hip ratio. There were pearl embellishments on the back. The upper body was covered with three layers of tulle, which was extremely flowing. The A-line skirt was comfortable and elegant.
Chen Nanfeng took a look twice and then looked away very unnaturally.
It's beautiful, but a bit embarrassing to watch.
Ye Shuyi turned around in front of the mirror and was very satisfied with her condition.
"So beautiful! Miss, you will definitely outshine everyone else in this dress!" the clerk praised.
"Thank you! Chen Nanfeng, do I look good?" she turned around and asked.
Chen Nanfeng heard this, looked sideways for a few seconds, and then said, "Not bad."
Ye Shuyi was not disappointed by his words, but said happily: "Let's go!"
"Um."
Tsim Sha Tsui, Island Hotel.
This is the top place in Hong Kong Island, with the sea view of Hong Kong Island next to it and a cruise ship.
There are already a lot of people here, most of them are well-known entrepreneurs and big stars who only appear on TV.
Every powerful man present had a beautiful female companion.
They talked freely, and most of the topics were about travel, culture, business, etc.
Chen Nanfeng took Ye Shuyi's hand and walked into the venue step by step.
Everyone calls him "Mr. Chen".
They seemed to be the last to arrive, and almost everyone had arrived.
Chen Nanfeng was wearing a well-tailored high-end gray suit. Under the projection of the light, his handsome face was very prominent, and he was as elegant and handsome as a prince in the palace.
Ye Shuyi next to him is a perfect match for him, with both being talented and beautiful.
Everyone spread out on both sides, looking at it intently.
Just listen to the whispers in the crowd.
"The person who just walked past is the eldest son of the Chen family, the grandson of Hong Kong's richest man, Chen Wuyan, and the future heir to the Chen Group!"
“The organizer invited him several times before he came this time!”
"Is he the one who is engaged to Miss Zi of the Gu family?"
"No, don't spread it."
“Outsiders don’t understand, but it seems that it’s rare to see Chen Shao and Gu Zi together.”
"How do you know they get along? Last month, I saw him and Gu Zi having dinner together! In Fengcheng."
"Am I the only one who thinks the girl next to him is pretty? Whose daughter is she? She looks unfamiliar."
"Could it be the girlfriend that Mr. Chen found outside?"
"Will he be attracted to ordinary girls?"
"Is this normal? Excuse me, have you ever seen an extraordinary person? Let me see what they are like."
"It's not the appearance, it's the family background," the man corrected.
"Haha, dating isn't marriage, just for fun! Mr. Chen probably won't take it seriously."
"Again. The Chen family's family background means they will definitely be well-matched in the future."
Ye Shuyi and Chen Nanfeng only heard the general idea and couldn't hear clearly.
It was Ye Shuyi's first time attending such an occasion, but she was not nervous.
She followed Chen Nanfeng and handled the approaches of various upper-class people with ease.
"Mr. Chen, you are such a handsome guy. Go somewhere to make a fortune!" A man in a red suit walked over and said, shaking a glass of red wine.
"Are you feeling the same? How about you? I heard you were on vacation in Indonesia recently. Did you have fun?" Chen Nanfeng raised his red wine and clinked glasses with him.
"Well, you can tell by looking at my skin color!" the man smiled bitterly.
His skin was as black as coal.
When Chen Nanfeng first saw him, he thought it was an African partner who came to attend the party.
When I got closer, I found that it was an acquaintance, which was really surprising and made me laugh.
Unable to resist, Chen Nanfeng smiled and teased: "You are a dark-skinned handsome guy now!"
The dark-skinned handsome guy Yu Chi thanked him for the compliment and turned to ask Chen Nanfeng, "Could you introduce me to her? Who did you trick the girl into doing this?"
Refers to Ye Shuyi.
"Guess." Chen Nanfeng responded and turned around to chat with other celebrities and young men.
After one round, he said to Ye Shuyi, "You can go to the socialite circle and take a look. You don't have to follow me."
“OK.”
This showed that she was bored. Ye Shuyi was bored to death. The so-called celebrity parties were just a transaction of power and interests and the expansion of personal connections.
Ye Shuyi simply went to the dining area to eat pastries and fruits.
These pastries are quite exquisite, and it is obvious that they are made by a famous chef. Ye Shuyi picked up a piece of osmanthus cake with a fork.
Osmanthus cake melts in your mouth. The crust is made of fine glutinous rice flour, rice flour mixed with lard and osmanthus. It has a soft and delicate texture and moderate sweetness.
The filling inside is a mixture of osmanthus, mung bean paste and brown sugar, which is also very sweet and refreshing.
This chef is very skilled.
If there is a chance, Ye Shuyi would like to exchange cooking skills with him.
Ye Shuyi not only ate osmanthus cake, but also flower cakes, small pieces of glutinous rice cakes, peanut and almond crisps, and jiaozai (a kind of food with peanut and brown sugar as filling, a slightly crispy flour crust, and shaped like dumplings).
She wasn't tired of it yet, so she went to the beverage area and got two bottles of cocktail, a glass of sour plum juice, and a glass of watermelon juice.
So enjoyable.
No one who comes here is interested in eating.
Apart from Ye Shuyi, she is actually not a glutton.
But she didn't know anyone here except Chen Nanfeng, and no one talked to her.
There were quite a few glances at me.
When she drank her second glass of plum juice, someone finally came over to talk to her.
However, he is an enemy, not a friend.
A girl wearing a pink princess dress and a crown hair accessory came over with another girl wearing a purple starry floor-length dress.
