Everyone looked and saw that the person who came was Ji Yan, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes.
She wore a silver rhinestone mermaid dress and a matching diamond necklace, and she looked incredibly elegant. However, if you looked at her a little longer, it felt like she was trying too hard.
Before anyone else could react, she had already strode towards Gu Zhiwei.
As I got closer, the light shone on her. Even with her heavy makeup, it couldn't hide how haggard she looked these days.
It seems that she has not recovered yet after being bitten by Lu Yunxi.
Alice smiled faintly, and almost instantly withdrew her hand naturally. In the blink of an eye, two women and one man were in the same frame. When compared up close, the difference between Ji Yan and Alice was even more obvious.
Gu Zhiwei suppressed the displeasure between his eyebrows and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"
Shouldn't she be in the temple at this time?
Ji Yan gritted his teeth and stared at the dazzling woman in front of him.
What happened in the ward that day was still vivid in his mind, and when he saw her dressed up, Ji Yan almost went crazy.
She knew that this woman was coming for her husband.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ji Yan forced a smile. "How could I miss such an important reception? Professor Alice, I was delayed by something and am a little late. Do you mind?"
Alice curled her lips and said, "Madam Gu has shown me such kindness. I'm so happy."
With Ji Yan here, Gu Zhiwei naturally couldn't dance the opening dance with Alice anymore. Just when everyone thought they had a chance, the professor suddenly made an announcement.
"Who says an opening dance has to be performed by two people? Next, I will prepare a solo dance for you to celebrate the launch of the new project."
In just a few moments, Alice had changed into a fiery red backless dress. The black stilettos and the red dress created a striking visual impact. Under the light, she was bright and hot, like a completely different person.
When the classic tango music sounded, everyone present was shocked.
The woman under the light moves flexibly, interpreting the passion and unrestrainedness of tango to the fullest, making people unable to take their eyes off her.
Even Lu Anning felt that the professor in front of him was like a phoenix reborn from the ashes.
After the dance, the place fell into complete silence.
Tang Jingyuan was the first to applaud, and the applause continued one after another, and did not stop for a long time.
Ji Yan stood beside Gu Zhiwei and saw that her husband was always looking at another woman with burning eyes and an extremely ugly expression.
The pain in her feet made her unable to hold on any longer. She called out several times, but Gu Zhiwei did not respond and was still immersed in Alice's amazing dance steps.
Gu Zhiwei was about to go up and talk to Alice when Ji Yan cried out and fell on Gu Zhiwei, causing quite a commotion.
Everyone looked over here and saw Ji Yan lying in Gu Zhiwei's arms with a bad look on her face.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Gu Zhiwei supported her and asked in a low voice.
Ji Yan bit her lip, beads of sweat appearing on her forehead.
"I might have twisted my ankle accidentally. Honey, it hurts so much. Can you take me to see a doctor?"
Ji Yan was not pretending to be like this, but she twisted her foot in the temple, which had nothing to do with what happened just now.
Gu Zhiwei helped Ji Yan sit down beside him and squatted to check her injuries.
The diamond-studded high heels couldn't cover her swollen ankles, and the slightest movement caused Ji Yan to feel severe pain.
"Why is it so serious?"
Gu Zhiwei frowned. Although he hadn't treated patients for many years, he could still see this little injury.
"It seems you injured your ligament. I'll take you back and apply some medicinal wine. Rest well these few days and don't run around."
In this situation, Gu Zhiwei had no reason to stay and could only leave first.
Ji Yan just stood up, but sat back down again in pain.
"Hubby, what should I do? I can't walk, it really hurts." Ji Yan said, tears about to fall.
Gu Zhiwei squatted down without hesitation and lifted the person up horizontally. This scene was captured by the reporters on the scene, and the guests began to discuss it. They had only seen in the news that the head of the Gu family was a man who loved his wife, but today they saw it with their own eyes.
Ji Yan leaned against Gu Zhiwei's arms aggrievedly: "Is it appropriate to leave like this? Otherwise, let someone else take me there?"
"The professor will understand. I'll take you back to apply medicine first."
Ji Yan was finally carried into the car by Gu Zhiwei in full view of the crowd, drawing many sighs of envy. Lu Anning swirled the red wine in his glass, smiled, and drank it all in one gulp without saying anything more.
The injury was real, but it also proved that Ji Yan was anxious.
She actually gets anxious sometimes!
Gu Zhiwei and Ji Yan left early, but the cocktail party was still going on, with Gu Yue and Gu Yu as representatives.
Not far away, Alice didn't care about this little episode and smiled calmly.
Lu An Ning met her inquiring gaze and couldn't help but wonder, was she about to agree to dance with her father just now?
If they really performed the opening dance, tomorrow's headlines would probably be even more exciting.
On the way back, Gu Zhiwei and Ji Yan were silent. She was carried inside by Gu Zhiwei. Seeing him take out the medicinal wine and prepare to apply the medicine to her, she didn't ask anything and was secretly happy.
So what if that bitch is pretty and attractive, Gu Zhiwei still has to follow him back obediently.
At this moment, a piercing pain came from her ankle, and Ji Yan couldn't help but scream.
"pain!"
Gu Zhiwei didn't slow down his movements and said coldly, "Since you know it hurts, you still don't care about it and insist on running to the party to make trouble!"
Ji Yan was speechless: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"We've been married for so many years, how could I not know what you're thinking? Cooperation with Alice is very important to the Gu family. I don't want something like tonight to happen again. Do you understand?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Zhiwei pinched the red and swollen painful area. Ji Yan screamed and tears rolled down her eyes.
