Chu Mohan made an appointment with the stylist while driving, so that he could go directly after he went home to pick up Shao Yatong.
When he got home, Shao Yatong was not in the living room. Just as he was about to go upstairs, Shao Yatong came out in a panic.
"Why are you back at this time?" Wu Ma told Shao Yatong that Chu Mohan was back. She didn't have time to pack those things, so she had to run out to stop Chu Mohan from passing.
"What are you panicking about?" Chu Mohan didn't want to ask, he didn't want to point it out, but he couldn't hold it back. Before Shao Yatong could answer, he put his arm around her shoulders and said, "There is a cocktail party tonight, and I want to take you to it.
."
"Me? Why don't you bring someone else with you? I... will only embarrass you." Shao Yatong couldn't find any excuse to refuse. It couldn't be said that she didn't have time! But what she said was right. She would attend those scenes.
Just like an out-of-place Cinderella, her gorgeous appearance is all fake, just an illusion to cover up her humbleness.
"Who said that? What's going on if I have a wife with another woman? Let's go, we've already made an appointment with the stylist. We don't need to prepare anything. We'll just go there right away." Although Chu Mohan said this, he still said
Go upstairs.
Shao Yatong knew she couldn't refuse and hurriedly followed her. She was really afraid that Chu Mohan would suddenly break into her room, but Chu Mohan didn't stop on the second floor and went straight to the third floor. Shao Yatong stood at the top of the stairs and didn't know whether to continue to follow.
He made it clear that he was going back to his room.
Not long after, Chu Mohan came out and directly pulled Shao Yatong, who was stunned there, out of the door.
Chu Mohan took Shao Yatong to the stylist. Chu Mohan whispered a few words to the stylist. After a while, the stylist took out a royal blue tight-fitting evening dress for Shao Yatong.
It was blue again, and Shao Yatong couldn't help but think that Chu Mohan also chose a blue and white porcelain dress for her once.
Shao Yatong put it on obediently, and then let the stylist mess around. Her mind was not here at all. She was still thinking that she was pressed for time and was afraid that she would not be able to finish copying "Paradise Lost". Now that she had innovative ideas, it would naturally cost more.
energy...
When Shao Yatong came back to her senses, she was shocked by her reflection in the mirror, especially the sapphire necklace around her neck. She was very familiar with it. Isn't this the same necklace that her grandfather gave her? It turned out that he went upstairs to the bedroom at that time.
I'm going to get this necklace.
"Honey, you are so beautiful." Chu Mohan hugged Shao Yatong from behind, touched her fair neck with one hand, and his lips fell on her bare shoulders. "This necklace looks really good on you. Only you can afford it."
."
Shao Yatong couldn't help but think of the scene when Chu Yunhang took out this necklace.
"Yaqian, grandpa has a gift for you!"
"Ya Qian is my granddaughter-in-law. Didn't you just say that, so it's only normal to leave this to my granddaughter-in-law."
Granddaughter-in-law... Yaqian... Shao Yatong's mind was confused again. Should this belong to Shao Yatong or Shao Yaqian? Who should be this granddaughter-in-law?
"This dress matches this necklace very well..." Chu Mohan's lips lingered on Shao Yatong's neck.
Shao Yatong's mind was buzzing again, and she couldn't help but think of the blue and white porcelain-style clothes he chose for herself that night. She remembered that the sapphire necklace was worn around Lu Manni's neck that night, and Chu Mohan said that he carefully selected it for her.
dress, but
How could there be no jewelry? Then his original intention that night was to give this necklace to her, but some accidents happened in the middle. If it was true that Chu Mohan wanted to give it to Lu Manni as she thought at the time, then it would not be the case later.
I won't get this necklace back.
"What are you thinking so absorbed in? Aren't you happy?" Chu Mohan actually felt quite uncomfortable. He treated her like this, but he couldn't get her to care about him. He was still absent-minded at this time, but he didn't know what she was thinking.
Which man is she looking at? Maybe she is struggling and feels a little guilty about herself?
"I'm not unhappy." Shao Yatong dodged her eyes and did not dare to face Chu Mohan's direct gaze. She turned around and was pushed against the dressing table by Chu Mohan.
"Why are you avoiding me?" He didn't want to ask but couldn't help but asked. Chu Mohan took Shao Yatong's hand and put it to his lips.
"No...ah -" Chu Mohan couldn't help but cry out in pain when the injury on his hand was touched.
"What's wrong?" Chu Mohan immediately turned over Shao Yatong's hand to check. The slightly white wound made him frown. He took it and put it gently to his lips, as if kissing. He smelled a touch of turpentine.
Taste, it seems he guessed it right.
"It's okay, I accidentally got burned." Shao Yatong hurriedly withdrew his hand, fearing that Chu Mohan would see the clues.
"Does it hurt?" Chu Mohan didn't expose it. Others might be fooled, but how could he not recognize the smell of turpentine.
"It doesn't hurt." Shao Yatong put his hands behind his back.
"Then let's go, have a good time at the cocktail party tonight, and don't think about those unpleasant things." Chu Mohan was telling himself, but in fact, he had too many unpleasant things stuck in his heart.
Huaxiang Building, the top luxury hotel in Liao'an City, is generally the first choice for large-scale cocktail receptions and celebrations. The anniversary celebration of Liang Hui Group is also considered a large-scale celebration, so it is naturally arranged here.
The appearance of Chu Mohan's Bentley immediately attracted the flashlights of all reporters.
"Honey, you are the most beautiful tonight." Chu Mohan whispered in Shao Yatong's ear. When the car door was opened, he stepped out of the car gracefully.
Chu Mohan tugged on his clothes and raised his eyes to look at this building. This is his next target. He has long been eyeing this location. As long as he sees it, there is nothing he can't get! Sooner or later, Huaxiang Building will come true.
It is under the name of his Hualong Company, and this name seems to have been chosen for him!
Shao Yatong walked to Chu Mohan's side and looked up to see his confident expression. The aura of king in this man was innate. Shao Yatong suddenly felt that she looked so small standing next to him, unconsciously.
He took a small step back.
Chu Mohan felt Shao Yatong's retreat, grabbed her wrist, held her hand, clasped his fingers with hers, raised his feet and led her towards the door.
"Honey..." In the elevator, Chu Mohan hugged Shao Yatong tightly and whispered in her ear: "Don't leave me, I won't let you back down!"
"I..." Shao Yatong felt warm in her heart when she looked at Chu Mohan's hot eyes. He actually noticed her slight flinch just now.
"Follow me, don't be afraid, I'm here!" Chu Mohan gently kissed Shao Yatong's forehead and did not move away for a long time.
Shao Yatong felt a warm current flowing from his lips into her heart.
There was a "ding" sound, and the elevator arrived. Shao Yatong wanted to push Chu Mohan away in a panic, but he knew very well what the occasion was and was afraid that his actions would be inappropriate, so he might as well leave everything to Chu Mohan.
Chu Mohan let go of Shao Yatong calmly. He didn't care. No matter what the occasion, he was kissing his wife, which was understandable.
But when the elevator door was fully opened and Shao Yatong saw clearly the man with hurt eyes standing outside the door, he felt his head pounding.
