Mommy, the wealthy daddy has come to propose again.

Tears welled up in her eyes and her voice was filled with slight sobs, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Gong Yu held her waist with his big hands and comforted her softly, "Alright, alright, don't cry, little darling. I don't mean to blame you. Of course I know you are not good at this kind of problem, so how can I blame you?"

He ran his fingers through her long, smooth, black hair, and looked at her pretty face with tears in her eyes lovingly.

"You believed that there was no need for a review because you trusted me. I should be thankful for that, right?"

Gong Yu is really gentle when he coaxes his beloved girl. His deep, magnetic voice whispers sweet words in her ear, which makes her feel tingling and numb, with a strong sense of temptation.

Cheng Xiang rubbed her charming and affectionate eyes, bit her lip and nodded.

"I know you're the best to me."

She said placing a kiss on his lips.

Gong Yu held the back of her head with one hand and began to kiss her back passionately.

The two of them hugged each other tightly, and the ambiguous atmosphere spread again...

Two days later, the banquet arrived as scheduled.

Bai Ning didn't want to stand out, so she just picked out a simple white dress from her closet and put it on. Her long hair was slightly curled and lazily draped behind her ears.

The makeup on her face is light, but it makes her facial features more delicate and charming, and even more dazzling under the light.

Cheng Xiang, on the other hand, borrowed a custom-made dress from somewhere and put it on. She had delicate makeup, charming fiery red lips, and ten-centimeter high heels on her feet. She stood out in the crowd at first glance.

"Boss Bai, I seem a little too conspicuous dressed like this, is that inappropriate?"

Cheng Xiang asked with his face turned sideways, his back straight but without any sign of stage fright.

Several men looked over here. She slightly turned sideways to reveal her pretty profile with a smile on her lips. She was obviously enjoying the attention.

Bai Ning saw through her thoughts and said calmly, "A high-end business banquet requires careful dressing. This dress suits you very well. To be honest, it's really beautiful."

Buddha relies on gold ornaments, people rely on clothes, and good-looking clothes can indeed add a lot of points to the overall look.

Cheng Xiang rolled her eyes and didn't take Bai Ning's words seriously at all. She thought that her beauty was hers and had nothing to do with clothes.

"Then Mr. Bai, please go ahead and do your work. I won't bother you anymore."

He raised his neck again, with an increasingly confident attitude, and walked into the banquet hall.

In a few seconds, it disappeared.

All the guests attending the banquet were well-known figures in the upper class society. The young ladies were dressed gorgeously, with exquisite makeup, competing with each other in beauty.

Looking around, there are only unfamiliar faces.

Bai Ning went to the dessert area, got a piece of tiramisu and sat aside to taste it. He didn't know what to do next, so he thought he should just let things take their course. After all, he was just trying to please his brother on his behalf.

"Baby, long time no see."

A man's deep voice came from behind, and the voice was extremely familiar...

Bai Ning turned around and saw Lan Qichen's handsome face that seemed to be smiling.

"What a coincidence, we meet here. It seems that God is bringing us together!"

He seemed very happy, even his eyes were filled with smiles.

Bai Ning turned his eyes away indifferently and replied coldly: "Unfortunately, I am attending the banquet on behalf of my eldest brother."

Lan Qichen was full of enthusiasm, but she poured a bucket of cold water on him, extinguishing the burning flame of love.

He added: "We broke up a long time ago, don't call me baby, this title doesn't belong to you."

Before the truth was revealed, she didn't want to have anything to do with him. She looked extremely disgusted, and even her hair was showing resistance.

Lan Qichen didn't care about Bai Ning's cold attitude. He smiled and said, "Don't be so harsh. I have made great progress in the investigation. The existing clues are enough to prove my grandfather's innocence. The red thread between us is tied into a knot that can't be untied or cut in this lifetime."
