Lu Jingxing quickly extended his hand, but he did not have time to grab hold of Ye Xi. Just as he was about to follow along, someone recognized him, and then, a few people "trapped" him in place.
An impatient look flashed past Lu Jingxing's cold eyes. She was worried about Ye Xi and Ji ian, but at this time, she couldn't pull back either.
Ye Xi stepped on her high heels and walked with difficulty while carrying her skirt. She was anxious and wished that she could take off her high heels and run past this crowd.
"Young Master Lian, do you think the gown I'm wearing today is pretty?"
Hearing the extremely coquettish and charming female voice, Ye Xi's footsteps paused, his breath slightly paused as he looked towards the source of the voice.
She saw a beautiful white figure standing with its back facing her.
He was surrounded by all sorts of famous people.
As for the one who had just spoken, he was now walking towards the man who was standing with his back to her.
"Miss Shen is a famous beauty in B City. Naturally, she would look good in anything she wears." The man spoke with an indifferent tone, his voice was as clear as the spring water under the moon.
Although the words were praises, the man was extremely indifferent.
That Miss Shen, on the other hand, was very happy. She boldly wanted to take Young Master Lian's arm.
However, the moment her fingertips touched the sleeve of his white suit, Young Master Lian's figure shifted. He took out two glasses of red wine from the tray of servants that passed by him and passed one to Miss Shen.
One second ago, Miss Shen's slightly embarrassed expression was dispelled by the red wine that he handed over. She smiled sweetly at Lian Shaoqiao."Young Master Lian, you're so bad!"
Young Master Lian chuckled, then lightly touched Miss Shen's wine glass with his own."Miss Shen, please don't say that, it will cause people to misunderstand."
"Young Master Lian?"
Ye Xi did not continue listening to them. A gratified smile appeared on his face as he turned around and continued to search for Lu Encheng and Ji ian.
Right at the same time she turned around, the tall figure who was originally facing her suddenly turned around, Peach Blossom's eyes shined brightly, looking at Ye Xi's disappearing figure that was gradually disappearing in the light and shadow.
Ye Xi searched through the surroundings of the ball but couldn't find Lu Encheng and Ji ian. He was disheartened, but his eyes were even more anxious as he searched the area of the banquet.
The ball had officially begun, and everyone was dancing on the white jade floor of the pool.
Ye Xi looked through the dancing crowd and saw Lu Jingxing, who was surrounded and greeted by a few business people.
Just as she looked over, Lu Jingxing's line of sight shot towards her.
Ye Xi bit her lower lip, the anxiousness on her face unable to be concealed.
From afar, she saw Lu Jingxing waving at her.
At this moment, searching for Lu Encheng and Ji ian in such a large clubhouse and crowd by herself was equivalent to searching for a needle in a haystack.
Ye Xi stood where she was and hesitated for a moment, then lifted her skirt as she walked towards Lu Jingxing.
However, halfway through the journey, the dancing music suddenly stopped.
Ye Xi was stu ed, all the people who were originally passionate about dancing immediately turned to look at the red carpet leading to the ball.
Ye Xi frowned, he was about to follow everyone's gaze and look.
A low sound of sighs and discussions, filled with admiration and admiration, came from beside him.
"Heavens, who is that man?" He's the handsomest man I've ever met! "
"You don't even know him? Huo's Group has become a mystery to all, the mysterious CEO, Huo Yaoting! "
"You also said that he has always been mysterious. It's normal that I don't know him!"
"Heh, normal? For the past week, all the newspapers and magazines in B City had been competing to report on the big BOSS. Even the big BOSS that had the LED screen in all the business circles had probably no one who could not recognize the handsome face of the Chairman Huo, which made one resent it, right? "You still dare to say it's normal?!"
"?"
After Ye Xi heard these words, his neck became so stiff that he did not even have the courage to look up.
He originally thought that with his personality, he wouldn't participate in a ball like this, but?
Who is that woman beside Chairman Huo? one of the women asked sourly.
"Look at how close she is to the Chairman Huo!" the other woman said contemptuously.
"Look at how weak and timid she is, it's really enough. A thousand-year-old fox, what are you acting here for!"
"That's right, I can tell with a glance. Don't just look at her feigning weakness. Look at that little girl's eyes. They are really sharp!"
"Come on, everyone. If you can't eat the grapes, you're called sour grapes!" If you have the ability, then go and pretend, and see if the Chairman Huo is willing to ignore you! "
"?"
He had a woman by his side?!
Ye Xi's ears buzzed as she held onto her skirt with her small hands, her palms wet.
Ye Xi's face turned white, he knew that he shouldn't have minded, but the pain that came from the bottom of his heart was too sudden, too obvious, and also too sharp.
She really couldn't do this.
Her translucent lips quivered, and her eyes that were slightly red under her long eyelashes slowly lifted up, looking forward.
The man that walked in from the red carpet was dressed in a well-cut black suit and black slacks, which faintly exuded the beauty of manly strength and sexy charm.
At such a formal party, he was quite casual. He didn't even wear a tie, and the black onyx buttons of his suit weren't buttoned.
Under his suit, his black shirt was untied by three pieces, revealing a small piece of his male-colored sexy skin and his exquisite and enchanting male collarbone. In his laziness, there was a wild charm.
Above that was the man's statue-like, slick, cold face, his thin lips pressed into a cold straight line as he hung his neck, his features deep and hard. His temperament was cold, and there was a perfunctory impatience in it.
It was precisely this casual and lazy ma er of his that firmly attracted the gazes of admiration from many of the women at the ball.
Ye Xi's heart, however, fiercely hurt.
His misty eyes moved to the woman beside him, the woman holding his arm tenderly.
The woman was dressed in a short, sleeveless, white evening gown. Her hair was parted in the middle and fell obediently to the sides of her long, slender neck.
Facing the gazes of the crowd, the woman seemed somewhat nervous. Her small hand tightly gripped her skirt, and only a faint, white, and small face covered in naked makeup faced the man.
A pair of round sparkling eyes looked at the man with dependence.
And this woman, was actually? Lan Shan!
Ye Xi's pupils constricted as he retreated.
