 “Alright, I got it.” When he heard this might harm Xu Zhiyin, Gu Nantian stopped being wilful.

Qiao was relieved.

 

However, he could see that Gu Nantian was not happy.

 

Qiao couldn’t help giving Gu Nantian some ideas.

 

 “If Master really wishes to make your relationship with Dr. Xu public and keep her by your side, there is another way.”

 

Hope flashed through Gu Nantian’s eyes. He was immediately interested, “What way?”

 

Qiao went closer to Gu Nantian and whispered a few sentences.

Feeling uneasy, Xu Zhiyin paced back and forth the living hall downstairs. She kept reading the post in Weibo again and again and couldn’t sit down peacefully!

 

This made her really angry!

 

It was not really because she was mentioned but…

 

She had never expected an accusation for the failure of her marriage with Ji Liunian.

 

It was undoubtedly only a divorce but these people were turning the matter 360 degrees around mercilessly against her.

 

They did not know what happened but made a conjecture of her life based on imagination.

 

 “Dr. Xu.”

 

Qiao came down before Gu Nantian.

 

Xu Zhiyin stopped. Unable to hold herself back, she looked at Qiao and asked, “What did Mr. Gu say? Did he agree to deal with the matter?”

 

Just now when they were upstairs, Qiao told her he would convince Gu Nantian and told her not to be anxious.

 

 “Yes, Master has agreed.”

 

Xu Zhiyin’ face immediately relaxed upon hearing Qiao’s words, “Good, I’m glad he agreed.”

 

This news would only disappear if Gu Nantian was willing to settle the problem.

 

She believed such trivial matter was not a problem for him.

 

 “But…”

 

Just as Xu Zhiyin was feeling relieved, Qiao who had been about to speak, said nothing. It made her heart thump faster. She looked at Qiao anxiously and asked, “But what? Did Mr. Gu come up with some extreme terms?”

 

That man would not take this opportunity to ask her to sleep with him, would he?

 

If this was the case, she definitely would not agree.

 

 “There’s an important dinner tonight and Master wants you to accompany him. He did you a big favor, you should do something in return for him too.”

 

 “What kind of dinner?” Xu Zhiyin would not blindly agree to such things just because she had received a favor.

 

She was a very rational woman!

 

Qiao replied, “It’s a private dinner. Have you heard of Mr. Gu Qinghai?”

 

 “Yes.” This man had been dealing with the Ji family and their relationship was quite good. Gu Qinghai was one of the top real estate agents in the country.

 

Qiao continued, “He is Mr. Gu’s second uncle. Today is his birthday party. As a junior, Mr. Gu has to attend but if he were to attend, he would have lots of worries too.”

 

 “What can I do?” Xu Zhiyin had only heard of Gu Qinghai’s name but hadn’t known that he was Gu Nantian’s uncle.

 

 “Dr. Xu, please have a seat.” While pointing at the sofa, Qiao invited Xu Zhiyin to sit down and started to tell Xu Zhiyin about tonight’s mission.

 

Gu Qinghai was Gu Nantian’s second uncle. He was also Gu Xinyi’s foster father. However, his relationship with Gu Nantian was not good and he was eyeing to take over Gu’s Consortium’s control…

 

However, all these years, he had been defeated by Gu Nantian again and again and his wish had not been fulfilled.

 

But…

 

The problem now was that Gu Nantian had met with an accident and had lost his memory.

 

If Gu Qinghai were to know about Gu Nantian’s memory loss, he would definitely grab this golden opportunity.

 

Hence, Xu Zhiyin had to accompany Gu Nantian to the dinner tonight.

 

Her mission was to make sure Gu Nantian’s memory loss wouldn’t be discovered by anyone. Moreover, when she was around, Gu Nantian would be more obedient.

 

This was within her job scope so Xu Zhiyin had to agree.

 

However…

 

When in her room, she looked at herself in the mirror. “Do I have to wear this?”

 

The servant said, “It’s Mr. Gu’s order. This is a standard evening gown. If you were to put on something casual and attend functions like this, it will be embarrassing.”

 

 “Oh, I see.” Xu Zhiyin rarely attends dinners of the upper class and did not like to engage in social activities.

 

When she was Mrs. Ji, she had not attended any with Ji Liunian before.

 

Although some people were curious about why she had never appeared in any functions, no one dared to laugh at her.

 

After all, when you were at the top, whatever you do would be right in the eyes of others.

 

Xu Zhiyin looked at herself in the mirror. A black strapless long dress with her hair drawn up high, made her look elegant and sexy.

 

The last time she wore a formal dress was during her convocation night in university but she was no longer the same as her past self.

 

She had been shadowed by Chuxia’s radiance, unlike today. Today she looked dazzlingly beautiful.

 

 “Dr. Xu, you look beautiful! This evening gown suits you.”

 

After so many years, she was no longer as constrained as the witless young girl she was that year. Now, she had a disposition of calmness.

 

Xu Zhiyin looked at herself and thought of Ji Liunian all of a sudden. She had never dressed up like this and appeared in front of Ji Liunian before.

 

She had actually been overly concerned about and had put her focus on him that she neglected herself.

 

If she could just spend a little more time on herself, she wouldn’t be so far from Chuxia, would she?

 

When the time was almost up, Xu Zhiyin walked out of the changing room. Gu Nantian was waiting patiently outside for her with his hands crossed in front of his chest.

 

The moment Xu Zhiyin walked out, his eyes lit up…

 

 “Darling, you look beautiful tonight!”

 

Gu Nantian’s fleet of cars stopped outside Gu Qinghai’s house. Qiao opened the car door personally and they got down the car.

 

She couldn’t remember how many times Gu Nantian had praised her tonight. Xu Zhiyin said, “Don’t look at me like that.”

 

 “You’re too beautiful, I can’t control myself.” How he wished his eyes could be pressed on her body.

 

Xu Zhiyin laughed. Today, she was in a good mood. “Gu Nantian, thank you.” Her voice sounded gentle.

 

 “What do you have to thank me for?” Gu Nantian stared at her.

 

 “Thank you for giving me a chance to discover a different side of me.” She had never dyed her hair till now and today, the hairdresser had dyed her hair and given her a different hairdo making her look different from her usual appearance.

 

When a woman dressed up, her mood would be better.

 

She was such an ordinary woman.

 

When they arrived, Xu Zhiyin muttered to Gu Nantian, “When we’re in there, don’t look at me.”

 

 “Why?”

 “Just listen to me.”

 

 “Alright.” Gu Nantian replied but his eyes never left her.

 

They were welcomed at the entrance and Xu Zhiyin tugged Gu Nantian, hinting for him to behave. When they saw Gu Nantian, they let them in.
