Chapter 688 Those Fragile and Ambiguous Kisses

There was a constant stream of guests.

They all took the sightseeing elevator outside the building straight to the top floor.

The banquet hall is 1,000 square meters with a high dome. The side door exit is an aerial garden, where vines divide the space into pieces, and the darkness can provide privacy.

The dazzling and intricate crystal lights fell, as if bringing us back to the most prosperous period of Central Europe.

The hall was filled with fine wine and delicious food, as well as some snacks that were just the right size for the ladies to eat without getting their lipstick stained.

The top leaders of Tianyuan Group were also there. Most of the guests were here to discuss business and socialize. Occasionally, you could see some popular stars in the entertainment industry. Usually, they were very grand, but here they were very respectful and humble.

A band was invited to play in a corner of the hall.

The guests stood in groups of three or four and chatted.

Huo Sijiao dresses very brightly, she prefers red.

Others looked tacky in red, but she looked dazzling in it. She also developed her own beauty salon customers by taking advantage of the Tianyuan Group's banquets.

Xie Xubai was standing in the corner talking to someone, his eyes falling on her from time to time.

The other young man was dressed stylishly, with hair dyed a dark brown that was almost black. He was dressed younger and had a more delicate face.

His features are somewhat similar to Xie Xubai's, but his temperament is completely different.

He put his hand on Xie Xubai's shoulder and patted him, saying in a somewhat ruffian tone, "Are you tempted? Is that the woman you like? Everyone in your family says that you are lucky and will have good things soon. But I don't think you know her well. Do you need my help?"

"Xie Jingchu, don't mess around."

Xie Xubai moved his claws away, his classical and cold demeanor darkened, and his tone carried a hint of warning.

Xie Jingchu smiled awkwardly: "Aren't I afraid that Pei Chun will become my sister-in-law?"

"Don't forget who you are. You agreed to hide your background and get involved in the entertainment industry, so stay away from me. I don't want any scandals involving you." Xie Xubai said calmly, mercilessly.

Xie Jingchu wanted to say something but stopped.

Is it necessary?

What kind of monster is he?

It was just that he was photographed having dinner alone with Xie Xubai last time, and his family spent money to suppress the news. Otherwise, after the news was spread, after careful analysis by netizens, they would definitely find that he and Xie Xubai look a bit similar.

His mask in the entertainment industry is about to fall off.

He had just made a name for himself in the entertainment industry with the name Jingchu.

Fans cannot be allowed to think that he relies on his family.

Xie Jingchu glanced at a couple walking in through the main entrance, and immediately said with a gloating look, "Another sucker has become Xia Sisi's slave. This woman is realistic and clear-headed, and she is a ruthless character. Almost every man who pursues her is squeezed dry by her, and then kicked away and still feels grateful and remembers her kindness."

Xie Xubai looked over and saw Sun Weimeng talking to Xia Sisi.

His tone was a little subtle: "He is not a sucker."

"With that silly and lustful look, how can he not be a sucker?"

Xie Xubai walked away with a glass of grapefruit juice, and his voice floated over: "That's great wisdom in disguise."

This young grandson must have extraordinary qualities to be appreciated by Huo Xingzhou.

Xie Xubai walked up to Huo Sijiao and handed her a glass of grapefruit water.

Huo Sijiao didn't even turn around and just drank the water. Her mouth was dry from talking. When she put down the cup, she immediately saw Xie Xubai's elegant and dignified face.

A mouthful of water was stuck in my mouth, and I almost choked on it.

"You... cough cough."

Her cheeks and neck were all red, and even her hand holding the cup felt a little numb.

Since the Guan family wedding, she has deliberately kept a distance from Xie Xubai and usually does not contact him.

But Huo Sijiao will never forget what she did to Xie Xubai after she was drugged. She molested him.

In that long corridor filled with flickering light and shadow, I touched his entire body.

Lingering and sad.

When she woke up in the middle of the night, she was always so angry that she wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

When she saw him in person again, her eyes were moist and filled with shyness.

"Are you biting?"

He was frank.

It was as if the two were still friends and nothing that happened that night had ever happened.

"No." Huo Sijiao's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes moved very lively. Her flushed cheeks were like sweet nectar, charming and tempting.

She pursed her lips, which were moistened by the grapefruit juice, with difficulty, not knowing what to say to Xie Xubai.

What if he brings up that day?

"My mother wants me to ask you if you can still make an appointment for the Jade Cream treatment at the beauty salon? She has a few schoolmates who want to try it."

I didn't expect that he just came here to talk about serious business.

"Yes! I can reserve it for them. After all...ah..."

Huo Sijiao felt the force from behind and fell onto Xie Xubai's body.

The sandalwood scent with a hint of fruit filled her nose, making her dazed and unable to recover. When she smelled it, she would remember her frivolous and excessive behavior that day.

Those small, ambiguous kisses.

Intimate things that only lovers do.

Xie Xubai glanced at them coldly. Xie Jingchu, who was passing by, said without any apology: "Sorry, I bumped into you by accident."

She even winked at him and left without any fear.

"Are you okay?" Xie Xubai asked with his head down.

Huo Sijiao shook her head and quickly stepped out of his arms, saying, "I'm fine."

But her face got even redder.

She could no longer remain honest in front of Xie Xubai. She didn't hate this feeling, but she felt a little nervous and moved.

"I...I'm going to help my brother entertain the guests. Please do as you please."

Huo Sijiao quickly found an excuse to leave.

There was a hint of smile in Xie Xubai's eyes.

But when he caught a glimpse of the Zhong family coming in through the front door, his smile gradually faded.

The Zhong family is here!

Zhong Lingxiao came with the pregnant Lin Xifei!

Lu Yingxue came alone, but did not see Zhong Yi for the time being.

…

7pm.

The guests are almost all here.

The whole banquet hall looked extremely lively.

The retro clock hands on the wall twanged a few times on the hour, and the lights in the banquet hall dimmed.

The spotlight fell on the main entrance of the banquet hall.

The tall door with creamy white carvings opened wide, and the red carpet was rolled out to the innermost part.

The bright light falls.

A man and a woman dressed in their best clothes walked onto the red carpet. The man's suit was straight, and his face was cold, as if he didn't see anything. His eyes were calm without any undercurrents.

Qiao Xi, who was standing beside him, was wearing a white silk-covered, floor-length dress.

A sapphire necklace adorns the collarbone.

She rarely dresses so elegantly and coolly on weekdays, always doing whatever she wants. She often goes out to see patients without makeup.

She pursed her lips and smiled as she stood beside Huo Xingzhou, her face was charming!

Everyone discovered that Mrs. Huo was even more beautiful than Lu Yingxue!
