Chapter 66 Party Accident
Two days later
The crystal chandeliers at the charity dinner cast streams of light like molten gold.
The subtle sound of champagne bubbles bursting, the rich fragrance of expensive perfume flowing...the guests walked around the banquet hall with elegant postures.
Everyone raised their glasses, nodded, and smiled, and every frame looked like a carefully drawn celebrity picture album.
Only the sparkling diamond watches on their wrists and the heavy gems on their earlobes silently reveal the weight of their status under the light and shadow.
Congenital heart disease in children is nothing more than a brief pause between lips and teeth, a decent sigh.
Then it was covered by new topics of jewelry and precious stones, like a stone thrown into a deep pool, the ripples disappeared in an instant.
As the champagne reached its third round, the conversation quietly turned to the evening's most dazzling intruder.
"Look over there... the head of the Yan family is here, and beside him..."
A lady in a fishtail dress gently touched her companion's arm and glanced across the crowd.
The woman next to her was young, and she recognized Mingyue at a glance as the recently popular singing internet celebrity.
"How could Mr. Yan bring an internet celebrity as his female companion? This is unprecedented... In the past, she was either his cousin or his aunt..."
The other lady responded with a smile, looking at the two figures, one tall and one short, who were attracting attention.
"It's really her. My daughter plays that song 'Moonlight' on repeat every day, saying it's so healing... I'm almost getting calluses from listening to it."
People nearby seemed to be attracted by an invisible magnet.
He adjusted his direction calmly and gathered towards the beautiful green color.
Mingyue stood in the center of that vanity.
She was wearing the emerald green haute couture dress that Yan Chongzhou had given her.
The high-quality satin exudes a warm luster on her body, making her skin look whiter than snow.
The slender and delicate collarbone is gathered in the waistline, and then spreads out at the hem, just like a green lotus blooming quietly in the night.
This was Mingyue's first time attending a party in the upper class circle.
She held Yan Chongzhou's arm and smiled gently and peacefully.
If Mingyue is a ray of green vitality, then Yan Chongzhou standing beside her is a calm night.
The sharply tailored dark black suit fits his tall figure meticulously.
He did not wear any extra pendants, only a dark blue gemstone cufflink on his cuff, which occasionally flashed a subtle and restrained cold light under the light.
Yan Chongzhou took Mingyue to walk slowly at the party.
Occasionally chat with a few old acquaintances with the purpose of introducing my girlfriend to them.
The older brothers who knew Yan Chongzhou well were all speechless at the sight of this peacock spreading its tail.
Yan Chongzhou seemed to be in a relaxed posture, with one hand casually tucked into his trouser pocket, but the other hand was domineeringly placed behind the girl's slender waist.
Forming an invisible, possessive barrier.
One is green and the other is black, the height difference is just right, and their auras blend and complement each other strangely.
In this Ukiyo-e of elegant women, a picture with a strong sense of story is drawn that is hard to look away from.
"Mingyue!"
A young lady in a champagne-colored dress stepped forward first, her smile showing just the right warmth.
"I'm your loyal fan, can I---"
The woman took out her cell phone from her delicate handbag, with a touch of cute embarrassment that belonged to a star-chaser:
"Can I take a picture with you?"
Mingyue's lips spread into a sincere smile, "Of course no problem, thank you for your likes."
She took the initiative to walk over and stand close to the beautiful lady, only to hear her happily saying:
"Mingyue, you are even more beautiful in person than in the video!"
"I played the song 'Moonlight' over and over a hundred times in three days..."
"This skirt suits you so well... You have such great skin and a thin waist... Mingyue, I will always support you! I love you so much..."
Mingyue felt a little shy after being praised. Yan Chongzhou did not interrupt but just stood aside calmly.
His eyes swept calmly over the crowd, with a faint curve at the corner of his mouth.
The tolerant and doting eyes silently appreciate and protect Mingyue's starry moment.
After Mingyue happily took photos with her fans, several other ladies came over to talk to her.
He actually wanted words of encouragement for his own child for next year's college entrance examination?
After Mingyue finished one round of social engagements after another, she finally realized the power of her millions of fans.
--
The auction will begin soon, and the waiters will silently shuttle under the huge crystal chandelier.
The occasional clash of wine glasses between the powerful and wealthy produced a clear and lonely echo.
Mingyue noticed the "signal" from a glass of "accidentally spilled" wine.
Her skirt was intact, but a few drops of red wine from the smashed wine glass spilled onto the back of her feet.
The waiter apologized for his carelessness, and the cleaning staff immediately came forward to clean up the dirty floor and said:
"Miss, the restroom is next to the security door at the end of the left turn."
Yan Chongzhou frowned, but he was not angry with the waiter. He turned around and said gently:
"Xiaoyue, I'll take you there. Wash yourself first, and I'll ask Duoli to bring a new pair right away."
When Mingyue saw the cleaning lady lowering her head with a guilty look on her face, she looked at Yan Chongzhou:
"You must have a purpose for coming here tonight. Go and socialize."
"I'll just ask this aunt to take me there... The security here is so good, and I'm not a child, don't worry."
Yan Chongzhou wanted to say something, but Mingyue interrupted him with a smile:
"I've been drinking juice or milk for the past two hours. I just needed to go to the bathroom...I'll be back in a minute."
After saying that, he asked the cleaning lady who had been keeping her head down and pretending to be nervous to lead the way.
Yan Chongzhou had no suspicion that something was wrong, and only looked away when Mingyue and her aunt walked away.
——
Mingyue didn't say anything and followed her aunt to the corridor leading to the bathroom.
Occasionally, one or two guests passing by would nod and smile at Mingyue, and Mingyue would respond with a sweet and polite smile.
Soon, the aunt leading the way in front breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and talked to Mingyue.
An ordinary middle-aged woman's face showed a guilty, flattering smile:
"Miss, the employer gave me and the young man who just served the wine a lot of money and asked us to bring you here."
"I didn't expect you to know my intentions and convince your boyfriend..."
Just as Mingyue was about to reply, "I know you were called to see me," her aunt heaved a sigh of relief.
"So you know that boy, huh? Hey! Why are you being so scary?"
"I always thought he was going to commit a crime. How could I dare to hurt you... But he pulled out two guns and pointed them at my head and the boy's head... Oh my god, I almost pissed myself!"
The two of them had already reached the corner in front of the bathroom, and Mingyue suddenly stopped.
"What? He threatened you with a gun?"
"No, Auntie, you said he was a boy? Is he very young?"
She made an appointment with Morino Ling to meet tonight.
He is not someone who would do anything that would threaten innocent lives.
Auntie also said the word boy...
wrong!
Mingyue didn't have time to listen to her aunt's answer, she turned around and ran away.
