Several understated luxury cars sped along the neon-lit, flower-lined road, stopping straight before the enchanting night scene.
As soon as the car door opened, Chu Liyue, who was the first to step out, attracted everyone's attention.
She wore a purple and gold cheongsam, looking noble and beautiful, with snow-white skin and a captivating figure.
Every gesture exudes elegance and nobility, with a cool and aloof temperament that also carries a touch of allure.
Those admiring and passionate gazes didn't even register on her face. Instead, amidst everyone's astonished stares, she gracefully bent down, her slender, bony hand lightly shielding the car roof, and pulled down a stunningly beautiful, sickly-looking man.
To match Chu Liyue's gorgeous purple and gold cheongsam, Xiao Wujie specially changed into a black suit with intricate blue and purple rose patterns.
His handsome features were tinged with illness, and his ethereal beauty was tinged with a hint of eeriness.
After getting out of the car, Xiao Wujie nestled in Chu Liyue's arms, coughed lightly twice, covered his mouth, lowered his eyes, and silently glanced around.
He gently wrapped his arm around Chu Liyue's waist, his head slightly lowered, his tone carrying a faint hint of sadness.
"My sister is so eye-catching!"
Chu Liyue's face was aloof and cold, and she looked around as if no one else was there. As she listened to his mournful and lingering whispers, a subtle, helpless smile flashed across her cold eyes.
I don't know who it was, but they said they'd never seen her in a cheongsam before. They were so captivated by her that they wouldn't let go of her, and after getting off the bus, they started doing this to her.
A hint of doting affection flickered across his helpless eyes.
Chu Liyue suddenly stretched out her slender fingers and lifted his chin, gently placing a kiss on his pale lips under the watchful eyes of everyone present.
Then she gently stroked his cheek with her fingers, a reserved and subtle smile in her eyes, "Is this alright?"
With a slight tremor of his long eyelashes, a blush appeared on Xiao Wujie's pale face, and he gave a soft "hmm" as faint as a mosquito's buzz.
Seeing that everyone else had gotten out of the car, he gently took Chu Liyue's arm and placed it on his waist.
She lowered her eyes, biting her lip, her gaze sparkling, and said, "Hold me."
Chu Liyue's lips curved slightly, she wrapped one arm around his waist, her gaze cold and aloof, exuding an air of domineering arrogance, as she gracefully strode towards the clubhouse.
Amidst the almost murderous gazes of everyone present, Xiao Wujie smiled, his eyes serene.
What are you looking at? What are you thinking about?
My older sister is mine.
Open your eyes wide and see how my sister spoils me!
Inside the top-tier club, it's like stepping into a dream world constructed of gold and jewels.
Beneath the dome, dazzling crystal chandeliers cascade down like a galaxy, their dappled light shimmering on the meticulously polished marble floor.
The walls are inlaid with precious metal foil, which complements the dark wood decorations, creating a magnificent, luxurious, and splendid effect.
A high-class waiter in a tailcoat came forward and respectfully led the way for everyone.
Chu Liyue's reserved private room was located on the top floor of the club. The environment was understated yet luxurious, and the huge floor-to-ceiling windows offered a view of the dazzling nightscape of the northern capital city.
Instead of sitting at a dignified and elegant large round table, the group gathered around a large square coffee table, each seated on a soft and comfortable leather sofa.
The coffee table is fully stocked with food and drinks.
Xiao Wujie and Chu Liyue sat together on a double sofa in the center, while the male nanny Lu Zhufeng and the female nanny Ai Ruoman poured fine red wine into the glasses in front of them.
When Chu Liyue arrived at Xiao Wujie's side, she raised an eyebrow and said, "Pour him only a little bit, just one sip."
Lu Zhufeng couldn't help but be sarcastic, "You pretentious jerk, I think you should sit at the kids' table."
Xiao Wujie immediately lowered his head and looked depressed, not even having the will to retort to Lu Zhufeng.
Chu Liyue glanced at Lu Zhufeng with icy eyes. Seeing him smirk and wave his hands in pleading for mercy, she immediately looked away and turned to coax Xiao Wujie, who was standing next to her with his arms crossed and looking depressed.
She reached out and wrapped her arms around his waist, her slender fingers gently pinching his waist, her red lips lightly brushing against his cheek, giving him delicate, light kisses.
"Honey, you're not feeling well, you can't drink too much."
"Once your sister has recovered, you can have whatever you want to drink or eat."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wujie, who had a depressed expression, suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly.
He reached out and wrapped his arms around Chu Liyue's slender waist, buried his head in her shoulder and neck, nuzzled her gently, and whispered in disappointment.
"I don't know when I'll get better, so I want my sister to make it up to me."
With her hand gently stroking his back, Chu Liyue hugged him and, without any hesitation, said, "Be good, tell me what kind of compensation you want."
Xiao Wujie looked up instantly, his gloom vanishing, his eyes filled with anticipation, "Really?"
Chu Liyue smiled indulgently, gently pinching his cheek with her fingers, "Really."
Xiao Wujie's long eyelashes trembled slightly, his eyes sparkled, his gaze darted away, and his thin lips lightly brushed against Chu Liyue's exquisite cheek.
He then reached out and wrapped his arms around her neck, his thin lips brushing against her ear, his breath warm against her skin.
"Then... pamper me tonight."
"I've thought about it."
...
Ignoring everyone's complaints, they spent a long time being affectionate, then Chu Liyue wrapped her arms around his waist and sat up straight.
Because it was to celebrate Xiao Wujie's discharge from the hospital, almost everyone was there except for Ye Jinyu, who had left earlier. Even Lin Qingyi, who rarely showed her face in public, came along.
Chu Liyue's cool gaze swept over everyone, and a faint smile appeared in her cold eyes.
Everyone present had a deep connection with her or Xiao Wujie; many of them were not family, but were closer than family.
Fate brought together a group of people abandoned by the world, who supported and comforted each other.
This feeling is pretty good.
With an elegant and dignified air, Chu Liyue raised her wine glass. Her voice, usually cold and aloof, now held a touch of gentleness, making it melodious and captivating.
"Everyone here is a close friend, like family."
"Ahead, let's join hands and move forward together, offering each other warmth."
She paused slightly, then turned to look at Xiao Wujie beside her, who stood with his head bowed and eyes lowered, her gaze filled with tender, sparkling starlight.
"Let's accompany my precious baby through the illness and embrace tomorrow together."
Chu Nanfeng, being the eldest, spoke first, holding his wine glass with a smile on his lips.
May Xiao Wujie recover soon, and may you two have a long and happy marriage.
Lu Zhufeng, who loves to joke around, has a touch of gentleness on his sharp and strong face, making him rarely serious.
"Well said, exactly the same. Wishing you a speedy recovery and a long and healthy life."
Leaning gently against Chu Liyue's chest, Xiao Wujie was as handsome as an immortal, with gentle features, and softly added:
May we all live long and prosper together!
Lin Qingyi didn't say anything, a gentle smile on her delicate face, her head bowed.
The others nodded in agreement, their expressions gentle.
Their eyes met, conveying a silent understanding and blessing.
The next moment, everyone stood up, and the stemmed glasses filled with bright red wine clinked gently in the air, producing a pleasant and crisp tinkling sound.
Without prior arrangement, everyone tilted their heads back and drank the fine wine in one gulp. The wine slid down their throats, bringing a warm current that went straight to their hearts.
Tonight is destined to be an unforgettable night.
