Chapter 139 Cocktail

Party On the day of the cocktail party, Gu Lanting came to pick up Yuanxiao in person.

Yuanxiao saw Gu Lanting wearing uniforms more often, and it was still a little surprising to see him in a suit for the first time.

Gu Lanting is a typical example of a man who looks muscular when undressed and thin when dressed. His two long legs are wrapped in suit pants, and he still wears a watch given by Yuanxiao on his wrist.

"Wait for me!"

Yuanxiao ran upstairs in her boots and took out a black tweed coat from her suitcase.

This was what she bought for Gu Lanting in Langshi before. She didn't know Gu Lanting's specific size, so she bought it according to the size recommended by the salesperson based on his height and weight.

Gu Lanting put on the tweed coat, and Yuanxiao's eyes were full of stars.

In his heart, he even screamed like a woodchuck. This is definitely the style of the male lead in a Korean drama!

Even Wang Yazhi couldn't help but sigh: "Xiao Gu is a clothes hanger. He looks good in anything."

This made Chu Jiangping feel sour. "I don't look good?"

Wang Yazhi glared at him, "How can we be the same? You are a scholar, and Xiao Gu is a soldier."

Chu Jiangping also exercised, but his muscles were not as developed as Gu Lanting.

Yuan Xiao's admiring eyes successfully satisfied Gu Lanting's vanity.

He held her hand in his palm and put it in his pocket.

"If you like, I will wear it every day for you to see."

Chu Jiangping secretly spit, shameless.

Yuan Xiao was wearing a thick down jacket on the outside and a black long skirt inside.

At first glance, there is nothing amazing. But if you take off your coat, revealing your slim waist and hips, and your fair and tender skin, it will be a pleasant sight.

But Yuan Xiao did not let Gu Lanting see what she was wearing underneath, otherwise he would definitely not want her to go out like this.

There had been cocktail parties before, and familiar faces from the capital were always there.

Gu Lanting appeared with Yuan Xiao, and Chu Jiangping and Wang Yazhi were also by his side. When the four of them appeared, almost the entire place fell silent.

Lan Muyun was the first to come up, "Hello, sister-in-law, we've met before."

Yuan Xiao smiled and nodded, "Muyun."

It was hot in here, and the cold had faded a little, so Gu Lanting took off his tweed coat, and then helped Yuan Xiao take off her down jacket.

But when he opened the down jacket, he saw what Yuan Xiao was wearing underneath, and his face instantly turned dark.

The black long skirt had a V-neck, and from Gu Lanting's angle,

he could still see the plump cleavage. Suddenly, he felt his throat burning dry.

After enduring for a long time, he put on the down jacket, "You'd better wear it, it's a bit cold."

Yuan Xiao pouted and took off the down jacket, "I don't want it, I feel quite hot."

"Xiaoxiao, be obedient."

Yuan Xiao hung the down jacket aside and smiled sweetly, "Take me to meet your friends."

Gu Lanting looked grumpy and took her hand and walked into the crowd.

Lan Mujun saw them coming and introduced them with a joking smile: "Come, come, let me introduce you, this is Lan Ting's girlfriend, Yuan Xiao. You can all call her sister-in-law."

Lan Mujun was very good at livening up the atmosphere. Even if some people looked unhappy, they still came over with wine to toast Yuan Xiao.

"It's quite different from the rumors." Bai Yan smiled.

Yuan Xiao had never seen Bai Yan before, so he looked up at Gu Lan Ting.

Gu Lan Ting whispered: "This is Madam Pei, also my aunt."

Yuan Xiao didn't call her second aunt directly, but smiled and called her Madam.

She looked at Bai Yan and felt that she looked familiar for some reason, but for a moment she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.

Bai Yan felt that Yuan Xiao was tactful and immediately liked her.

But then she thought of Bai Hua and felt that Yuan Xiao's future would not be easy.

She hinted, "My sister will be here soon."

Gu Lanting nodded, his face a little colder.

Gu Lanting was dragged by Lan Muyun to chat with his friends, so Yuan Xiao stayed with Bai Yan.

After a few words, she saw Vivian coming.

She didn't know many people at this cocktail party, and when she saw Yuan Xiao, she walked over excitedly.

"You're here too, do you think my cheongsam looks good?"

Yuan Xiao smiled and nodded, "It suits you very well, Vivian."

Vivian brought a glass of wine and sat next to her, "Don't call me Vivian, call me by my Chinese name, my name is Yang Xiu."

"Hello Yuan Xiao, my name is Pei Yuwan."

Yuan Xiao turned around and saw a girl in a black dress holding a wine glass, smiling, and looked about the same age as her.

Although she was smiling, Yuan Xiao always felt that she didn't like him.

Yuan Xiao nodded, "Hello."

Bai Yan smiled and waved to Pei Yuwan, "This is my niece. She also took the college entrance examination this year. It is estimated that she will go to college in the same period as you."

Yuan Xiao stared at Bai Yan's smiling face in a daze, and finally remembered where she had seen her before!

Qin Qin!

Qin Qin is at least 50% similar to Bai Yan.

At this moment, she was almost shocked.

Could Bai Yan be Qin Qin's mother?

Pei Yuwan looked at Yang Xiu's skirt with a strong interest in her eyes. "Your skirt is very beautiful. I haven't seen it for sale in the mall before."

Yang Xiu smiled and took Yuan Xiao's hand. "It's very beautiful, right? Yuan Xiao asked someone to make it for me, and the fabric was made from her family."

Pei Yuwan was slightly stunned, and then a look of contempt appeared in her eyes. She said softly, "So, Miss Yuan Xiao is selling cloth?" As

soon as she said this, various different voices came from the side.

"Oh my God, is this speculation?"

"Selling cloth? How can a girl do this?"

"Why would Mr. Gu like a girl like this?"

Yuan Xiao replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "Yes, I opened a textile factory."

Pei Yuwan's eyes flashed with malice, "Then I wonder if I can order clothes from you?"

Yuan Xiao took out a business card from her small bag, "The clothes are made here, you can go to this address to find Zhu An."

"But Yang Xiu has a slim and fit figure and fair skin, and she looks good in white. The same style may not be suitable for Miss Pei."

As soon as Yuan Xiao said this, some people laughed softly.

Pei Yuwan's face was ashen. What she hated most was people talking about skin.

She was not actually very dark, but the socialites in the capital were well-maintained and had fair skin.

Standing among these people, she looked dark.

She inherited her mother's big frame, and she looked even more majestic in clothes.

Yang Xiu seemed not to hear the sarcasm in Yuan Xiao's words, but stared at her handbag.

It was the same black as Yuan Xiao's skirt.

It was embroidered with white plums.

"Can I see your handbag?"

Yuan Xiao readily agreed and gave her the bag.

Pei Yuwan sneered, "Is this also something your family sells?"

"The bag is not for sale for the time being. Even if Miss Pei wants to buy it, she probably can't." Yuan Xiao retorted.

When she opens a branch in Beijing in the future, she will definitely put the Pei family on the blacklist.
