"Xue 'er, are you done?" Yin Mohan stood at Lan Xue's door, knocking on the door and asking patiently.
"Alright, brother, don't rush me.”Lan Xue opened the door, pouting her little mouth, looking delicate and cautious.
"You, the banquet starts at 6:30. Look, it's already 7:00. This little girl sure knows how to dawdle." Yin Mohan tapped the tip of Lan Xue's nose lovingly. He knew that he was right. Ten years ago in the orphanage, Xue 'er was so innocent and cute. Ten years later, she was still the same. She was like a fairy that had fallen into the world. Her pale pink evening gown, paired with her fair skin, and the pearl pendant on her neck seemed to be overshadowed. Her long black hair was casually tied into a bun, adding a hint of charm to her original innocence. Suddenly, a figure appeared in Yin Mohan's mind. If Leng Yiran dressed like Xue 'er, what would she look like? Yin Mohan couldn't help but laugh at himself for suddenly thinking of that cold woman. Ha, how could she be compared to Xue 'er? Xue' er was so innocent.。
"Brother, Ran Ran is downstairs. Let's go.”Lan Xue naturally put her arm around Yin Mohan and walked down the stairs.
Leng Yiran watched the two of them walk down the stairs intimately from the lobby on the first floor. She felt as if her heart was being pricked by a needle. Was her heart aching? What right did she have to feel heartache? Wasn't it like this since she was young? She should have gotten used to it long ago, but why couldn't she get used to it no matter what? Hiding all his emotions, he said calmly,""Young Master, Young Miss, the car is at the entrance of the courtyard. Let's go.”
Lan Xue gave Leng Yiran a faint smile and stepped out of the door. Yin Mohan didn't even look at her from the beginning to the end and let Lan Xue walk away with his arm. She suppressed her bitterness and followed Yin Mohan closely. She mumbled to herself, could this be the only way? She could only look at his back and step on his shadow forever.。。。
At the banquet-
"Yin Mohan? I thought I wasn't worth enough for you to come.”As soon as Yin Mohan entered the banquet hall, Gong Cheyu walked over with a wine glass in his hand, his tone full of ridicule and surprise.
"How can that be? There are too many complicated things to do and I can't get away.”Yin Mohan didn't mind Gong Cheyu's provocation at all and replied indifferently.
At this time, Lan Xue's face was flushed red. She didn't expect such a handsome man. If Yin Mohan was Satan from the dark, full of evil, it would make people shudder. The man in front of her was like a king who made people feel like they had been captured by him. His long and narrow eyes were filled with sharpness, as if everyone present was his prey.
"Are you Miss Lan? You're really as charming and charming as the rumors say.”Gong Cheyu didn't think much of Yin Mohan's answer. Instead, he teased Lan Xue, who was standing at the side. Everyone knew that Yin Mohan, who was usually stern and cruel to everyone, was only gentle to the little woman in front of him.
"No, someone else exaggerated it." Lan Xue's face turned even redder at Gong Cheyu's question as she lowered her head shyly. It was love at first sight for her.
Seeing Lan Xue's reaction, Yin Mohan's expression became even colder. He put his arms around Lan Xue's waist and said coldly,""I won't disturb President Gong from greeting others.”With that said, he left with Lan Xue. Lan Xue turned her head and looked at Gong Cheyu with infatuation.
Gong Cheyu met Lan Xue's reluctant eyes and smiled politely. He swirled the wine glass in his hand and walked to the most inconspicuous corner of the banquet. In that corner, there was a figure that he couldn't ignore from the moment Yin Mohan appeared.
"Leng Yiran, aren't you going to follow your master? Aren't you afraid that he'll be in danger?”Gong Cheyu approached her and called out her name accurately. He sat beside Leng Yiran and smiled cynically, admiring her prideful face. This woman was hard to ignore. She was as cold as ice, like a cold and arrogant balloon flower. She did not seem to put anyone in her eyes. Even if she was so outstanding, she could not attract her attention. She only took a glance at him when she came in. There was no surprise in her eyes when other women saw her. She just sat quietly in this corner that was not easy to be discovered, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.
"Do I need to follow him? Will anyone dare to cause trouble at your banquet? I believe you won't allow this to happen.”It was the cold voice he had imagined, but the tone was soft.
Seemingly satisfied with her answer, Gong Cheyu's smile deepened as he said in admiration,""I thought you would ask me how I knew your name was Leng Yiran.”
"Who doesn't know that there's a 17-year-old Leng Yiran behind Young Master Yin?”She said self-deprecatingly. Yes, everyone knew that she was his bodyguard, and others also knew that Lan Xue was the woman he loved the most, the only woman who could make him gentle. She was 17 years old, she was 17 years old. There was only one more year left before the hellish training ended. At that time, she would truly have the ability to protect him by his side.
Gong Cheyu pursed his lips disapprovingly and changed the topic. He said in a serious tone,""I really can't imagine how beautiful you will be when you grow up. You will bring trouble to Yin Mohan because you are too beautiful. Since ancient times, women have been the bane of life. If I ask Yin Mohan for you, do you think he will agree in exchange for my cooperation with him? After all, my cooperation with him will be of great help to his career, right?”Gong Cheyu pressed his body against Leng Yiran's and whispered softly into her ear. His tone was very soft, but Leng Yiran was at a loss. Firstly, it was because this was the first time a man had gotten so close to her. Secondly, if what he said was true, would Young Master give her to someone else? If he did, what would she do?。。
At this moment, neither of them noticed that on the other side of the banquet, a pair of cold eyes were covered with a layer of frost. That damned woman dared to flirt with another man in public. Did she forget the promise she made when she was young? The wine glass in his hand was tightly gripped. A strong possessiveness filled his blood.
"I don't think I'm worthy of you asking Young Master Yin for me personally.”Leng Yiran replied coldly, but the panic in her tone was seen through by Gong Cheyu.
He raised his eyebrows and did not expose her pretense of coldness. He said domineeringly,"Whether it's worth it or not depends on me." After a pause, he continued jokingly,"Look, your young master is so close to Lan Xue.”
"Young Master and Young Miss were originally a couple. It's normal for them to be intimate.”Following Gong Cheyu's gaze, she saw Yin Mohan holding Lan Xue gently. The coldness in Leng Yiran's eyes faded away, and a trace of weakness appeared. She still tried to be brave and answered him, but she couldn't breathe. It was as if she couldn't face Yin Mohan's doting smile on Lan Xue anymore. She got up and left the banquet to walk to the garden, hoping to use the cold wind to clear her head.
