Fu Chen looked at Xu Zhiru's excitement, but felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart.
He walked to the men's clothing area and casually picked out a suit.
"Sir, you have a good eye. This is the latest suit in our store. It's made of imported Italian fabric and is hand-sewn. It suits you very well."
The salesgirl introduced enthusiastically.
Fu Chen didn't say anything, but silently picked up a black suit and walked into the fitting room.
He put on a suit and looked at himself in the mirror, suddenly feeling a little strange.
Is this still him?
The once high-spirited and arrogant Fu Chen is now like a puppet, being led by Xu Zhiru.
"Ah Chen, are you okay?"
Xu Zhiru urged from outside.
"alright."
Fu Chen opened the door of the fitting room and walked out.
"Wow, Achen, you look so handsome in this suit!" Xu Zhiru's eyes flashed with admiration.
"Just like a movie star!" Fu Chen smiled and said nothing.
He knew Xu Zhiru liked to hear these sweet words, but he was not in the mood to say them now.
"Let's take this one." Fu Chen said with a hint of fatigue in his tone.
Just then, footsteps were heard at the door.
Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen walked in.
When their eyes met, the air seemed to freeze.
Fu Chen's gaze fell on Ning Nanxue and could not be moved away.
She was wearing a lavender evening gown that was well-cut and perfectly outlined her graceful figure.
Her hair was casually tied up, revealing her slender neck and delicate collarbone.
She stood there, like a blooming violet, elegant and beautiful.
Fu Chen's heart skipped a beat.
He had to admit that Ning Nanxue was more beautiful than before.
The confidence and composure that radiates from the inside out is something Xu Zhiru will never be able to match.
"Boss Ning, Boss Jiang, are you here to choose dresses too?"
Xu Zhiru was the first to break the silence. She took Fu Chen's arm with a provocative smile on her face.
"Yes, Miss Xu." Ning Nanxue said lightly, her eyes sweeping over Fu Chen and Xu Zhiru.
"What a coincidence, we meet again."
"It's quite a coincidence." Xu Zhiru said with a hint of pride in her tone.
"A Chen, let's go over there and take a look." She took Fu Chen's hand and walked to the other side.
Fu Chen didn't say anything, just followed her silently.
His gaze drifted towards Ning Nanxue from time to time, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.
"Xue'er, what do you think of this one?"
Jiang Tingchen was holding a champagne-colored evening dress and trying it on Ning Nanxue.
"I think this one suits you better."
"Really?" Ning Nanxue smiled.
"Then try it on." She took the dress and walked into the fitting room.
Jiang Tingchen stood outside, waiting quietly.
His eyes were gentle and affectionate, as if Ning Nanxue was the only one in the whole world.
Fu Chen felt a sharp pain in his heart as he watched this scene.
He thought back to the past when he had the opportunity to treat Ning Nanxue so gently.
However, he destroyed it all with his own hands.
"Achen, what are you looking at?" Xu Zhiru's voice sounded again.
"Nothing." Fu Chen came back to his senses and concealed his emotions.
"let's go."
"Okay." Xu Zhiru nodded obediently.
She held Fu Chen's arm tightly, as if she was afraid that he would run away.
The four of them passed each other without saying anything else.
The atmosphere was awkward and depressing.
Back in the car, Xu Zhiru was still immersed in the joy of choosing a dress.
"A Chen, do you think we will become the most eye-catching couple at the party?" she asked excitedly.
"Yes."
Fu Chen said, but his tone was a little absent-minded.
"That's good." Xu Zhiru nodded with satisfaction.
"Ah Chen, you are so nice to accompany me to choose a dress." She snuggled in Fu Chen's arms with a happy smile on her face.
Fu Chen didn't say anything, just patted her back gently.
Ning Nanxue's figure kept appearing in his mind and could not be shaken off.
On the day of the cocktail party, celebrities from all walks of life gathered together. The scene was decorated magnificently and the atmosphere was warm and luxurious.
The arrival of Ning Nanxue and Jiang Tingchen caused a commotion.
Ning Nanxue was dressed in a lavender evening gown, looking elegant and radiant.
Jiang Tingchen was dressed in a black suit, looking handsome and elegant.
The two of them stood together, like a perfect couple, and became the focus of the whole audience.
"Mr. Ning, Mr. Jiang, welcome, welcome!" The Xu couple came forward to greet them warmly.
"Mr. Xu, Mrs. Xu, congratulations!" Ning Nanxue said with a smile.
"Boss Ning, your presence truly brings honor to our humble home!"
Mrs. Xu took Ning Nanxue's hand and spoke kindly.
"Mrs. Xu, you are too polite." Ning Nanxue said.
"Boss Ning, this is Boss Jiang, right?"
Mr. Xu looked at Jiang Tingchen and asked with a smile.
"Yes, Mr. Xu." Ning Nanxue introduced.
"This is my partner and good friend, Jiang Tingchen."
"Mr. Jiang, I've long heard of you!" Mr. Xu extended his hand and shook hands with Jiang Tingchen.
"Hello, Mr. Xu!" Jiang Tingchen responded politely.
"Mr. Ning, Mr. Jiang, please come in!" Mr. Xu invited warmly.
"We've got seats ready for you."
"Thank you, Mr. Xu." Ning Nanxue said.
The three of them walked into the banquet hall together.
