Qin Yi didn't make any further guesses, because it meant nothing to him. Then he pushed open the door and came to the hall, where Zhao Zhixu was waiting for him.
"Wow, so handsome!"
Zhao Zhixu couldn't help but say something, and then his eyes were immediately attracted and it was difficult to look away for a while.
Clothes make the man, and gold makes the Buddha. Qin Yi was already extremely handsome even in rags before. Now that he has changed into a suit worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, he exudes a noble temperament that is even more difficult to describe.
"What's wrong? Are you fascinated by me?"
Qin Yi stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Zhao Zhixu.
"I was just distracted by something. I'm so sorry."
Zhao Zhixu's face turned red and he quickly looked away as if he had been electrocuted.
Everyone loves beauty. She had never seen such a handsome man, so her loss of composure just now was normal.
"Really? You should go back to your room and get ready. We'll be leaving soon."
Qin Yi smiled. He naturally knew that Zhao Zhixu was not distracted. He was always confident about his appearance.
"Wait a moment, it will be there soon." Zhao Zhixu left quickly, his steps a little flustered.
After seeing Zhao Zhixu return to the room, Qin Yi sat on the sofa in the Zhao family's living room and took out his mobile phone to pass the time.
He found that twenty minutes ago, Xiao Anhe sent him several messages, asking him if he had returned home for dinner and that she had cooked an extra portion.
"The little girl is quite like a good wife. She knows how to be considerate of her husband and prepares an extra meal for me."
Qin Yi muttered to himself, and then he edited the text message:
"I'm having dinner at Zhao's, so I'm not going back to eat. I wasn't looking at my phone just now, so I didn't notice. Have you eaten?"
What Qin Yi didn't expect was that he received a reply immediately after sending the message.
"Oh, I just finished eating."
Qin Yi didn't think about it too much, so he put away his phone and waited quietly. Not long after, Zhao Zhixu walked out of the room.
She wore no makeup, just a light touch of lipstick on her lips, wore a white long dress, and crystal shoes, looking even more stunning than usual.
Qin Yi looked at her in a daze. After a little dressing up, Zhao Zhixu was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen.
Zhao Zhixu felt a little embarrassed by Qin Yi's gaze. She blushed and asked, "Is this outfit of mine okay?"
Qin Yi smiled and said softly: "What do you mean it's okay? You must be the most beautiful woman tonight."
"Don't make fun of me. Your fiancée Bai Qiong is in no way inferior to me. This is recognized by people in Linhai." Zhao Zhixu said with a smile.
Her beauty had been praised since she was a child, and she had become numb to it. However, when Qin Yi praised her now, she felt a little proud in her heart.
"That's true. I wonder what kind of dress she will wear tonight."
Qin Yi whispered, and couldn't help but feel excited.
"Then let's go."
Zhao Zhixu said that when she saw Qin Yi's expectant look, she felt a little uncomfortable. Perhaps she had not noticed that she was being attracted to Qin Yi little by little.
…
The Dujiang Ball was held in a private club in the Dujiang business district. The owner of this club was the organizer of the ball and one of the top wealthy families in Linhai, the Mo family.
This dance party was not as formal as the last art exhibition. The exhibition was hosted by Zhao Tiannan and the guests were all the heads of the major families in Linhai. The business purpose was quite clear.
This ball is different from the last one. Its main purpose is to invite young talents from major families. After all, the control of the wealthy families will sooner or later fall into the hands of their generation, and some people have even begun to take over the family business.
Therefore, this dance party also has a certain commercial nature. Everyone gets to know each other and builds connections for the younger generation.
Of course, in addition to getting to know the young men and women from various families, the young people who came to the dance party also had an important task assigned to them by their families.
That is the marriage between wealthy families, which is crucial to maintaining a wealthy family. Therefore, young men and women at the dance party will also look for relatively pleasing candidates to become their pursuit targets.
"We're here."
After Zhao Zhixu parked the car, he greeted Qin Yi.
Qin Yi nodded, but his eyes looked around. It seems that beautiful women are the root of disasters since ancient times.
As soon as they arrived, many people cast expectant glances at the Maserati.
"This is the car of Zhao Zhixu, Miss Zhao. The first time I saw her was at the Li family's banquet five years ago. I was so stunned by her beauty back then that I wanted to pursue her. But so much has passed, and I haven't even spoken to her a few words. What a failure!"
"You're not the only one who wants to pursue her. I do too! She's arguably the most beautiful woman in Linhai. Which man wouldn't be tempted? Unfortunately, every time I try to approach her, she cleverly avoids me. Even if I find a chance to talk to her, she won't give me any contact information!"
"Oh, forget it, let's not pursue her. Let's pursue Bai Qiong. At least she'll give us her contact information if we ask for it, and she's not shy about talking to men like us."
"How can it be the same? Bai Qiong is the president of the Bai Group. Since she took over this important role, she must have a certain network of contacts. I still like Zhao Zhixu. Do you think I'm cheap? The more I can't get it, the more I want it!"
"Who isn't? But Bai Qiong is not easy to pursue. Not only is she young and promising, but I heard she was recently engaged to Gao Li. Oh, if I could marry Bai Qiong, I would have someone to help manage our huge family business in the future..."
“…”
Qin Yi frowned when he heard the conversations around him. Bai Qiong had mentioned this to him last time. So that person was Gao Li?
"What are you daydreaming about? Let's get out of the car and go inside."
Zhao Zhixu greeted him, then opened the car door and left the driver's seat.
"I was wondering, you are the dream lover of countless talented people in Linhai. Will they kill me if I am your dance partner today?"
"These are all young masters. I'm just a commoner. If they want to target me, it's as easy as crushing an ant."
Qin Yi said this with a grin, pretending to be frightened.
"They dare? Don't worry, with my Zhao family here, they won't dare touch you. Also, do you remember the patient I mentioned to you? That person is the eldest lady of the Mo family. If you cure her, you will be a distinguished guest of my Zhao and Mo families. There are really not many people in Linhai who dare to offend you!"
Zhao Zhixu patted her chest and assured her that of course she didn't think Qin Yi was afraid of those rich kids. If he really cared about this, he should have thought it through just now.
"I don't know how the Mo family will treat me. It's safer for you to protect me now and show the Zhao family's attitude towards me in front of other people!" Qin Yi said slowly.
"How do you want me to behave?" Zhao Zhixu was puzzled. She really couldn't guess what Qin Yi meant.
"For example, holding my hand or kissing me can all serve as my amulets. What do you think?" Qin Yi said with a smile.
