Chi Wan let out a chuckle unexpectedly. She suddenly felt that Wen Mo was rather adorable. He finally behaved like a normal person.

Soon, Wen Mo came out of the bedroom. He had already restored his usual well-dressed, calm, and collected appearance. His outfit was eternally spotless without a speck of dust, and his expression was as still as before.

Chi Wan subconsciously fixed her gaze onto a certain area. She began to doubt whether she was seeing things earlier or she sensed something wrongly.

“What are you looking at?” Wen Mo seemed to be infuriated.

Due to the effects of alcohol, Chi Wan answered truthfully, “A man’s feature.”

Wen Mo was speechless.

For one moment, he was at a loss for words. He noticed the redness on her cheeks and her blank gaze. “Have you been drinking?”

Chi Wan shook her head, then nodded. “A sip.”

“Why are you here?” Wen Mo changed the subject and purposefully looked away from her.

Chi Wan began to realize her behavior, and her gaze darted quickly. She frowned. “I should be asking you this question. Why are you here?”

“This is my room.”

She was puzzled and sobered up immediately. “I… I don’t know.”

“How did you get in?”

Chi Wan replied honestly, “The door was open when I came here.”

He lowered his gaze as if he was deep in thought. After a while, he spoke, “I’ll find out what happened. As for now, you’ll dress up and accompany me at the banquet downstairs.”

Chi Wan tightened her fists and said softly, “I’m sorry.”

They could have separated there and then, but it looked like they could not do it now.

There was a subtle shift in Wen Mo’s gaze as he suppressed the odd feeling in his heart and spoke coolly, “We’re just delaying things. It’s ok.”

Chi Wan nodded and got up from the sofa. “I’ll go change.”

She brought her gown into the smaller bedroom. Instead of putting it on straight away, she took out her phone and called Yun Shanshan.

She refused to believe that she had misplaced her trust in someone else again.

Soon, Yun Shanshan answered the call. “Sister Wan!”

“Where are you?” Chi Wan’s voice was harsh.

“I…”

“Say it!”

“Alright, alright, please don’t be mad. Let me explain myself!”

Yun Shanshan confessed, “I heard that Wen Mo will be participating in a bidding here today, so I wanted to arrange for both of you to meet.”

Trying to suppress her rage, Chi Wan asked, “How did you open the door?”

“By manipulating the system! I changed some of the codes and the door opened…”

Chi Wan roared through gritted teeth, “Return to the apartment now! I’ll deal with you when I’m back!”

“…Yes!” Yun Shanshan muttered a response meekly.

Chi Wan hung up and heaved a big sigh. Resigned to her fate, she got dressed, combed her hair, and walked out.

Once she came out, Wen Mo proffered an arm. “Let’s go.”

She placed her arm around his. They left the room and took the elevator to the eighteenth floor.

The elevator doors had just slid open when glaring lights pierced Chi Wan’s eyes.

She withheld the urge to shade her eyes. On the contrary, she forced out a professional, elegant smile, and walked cheerily by Wen Mo’s side.

The people around them merely took photos but did not ask questions. Chi Wan felt relieved.

The banquet hall came into view, which was populated by all manners of people.

The men were clad in suits and leather shoes while the women donned expensive gowns and wore perfume. They formed themselves into little groups and chatted away happily.

Wen Mo and Chi Wan’s appearance immediately caught the attention of the crowd. All of the guests were corporate leaders and pioneers in the business world. They had brought their partners along to the banquet.

In their view, Wen Mo’s actions meant that he was mindful of his celebrity girlfriend.
