Quick Wear: Host, are you playing here?

Hua Xia agreed, and a suitable dress was delivered that afternoon. It seemed that the man had already planned it out. Hua Xia looked at the man who opened the dress in front of her. His facial features were mature and tough, and eight years had passed. She sighed softly and went into the room indulgently to try it on.

"Very pretty." Gu Yunshen said with a smile, including the name, "Xiaoying."

In the mirror, a man in a black custom suit approached, with a dark mist in his eyes, which disappeared when he raised his eyes, leaving only the same straightforward love as before.

The skirt was a little long, so Hua Xia lifted one corner of it, letting the soft fishtail skirt fall down. She looked up at the mirror, and her sight fell on Gu Yunshen through the mirror. She was speechless for a moment, as she could see that Gu Yunshen was pretending something.

Duan Yun’s engagement banquet was very grand. It was a marriage arranged by the family. Han Che and Mu Yan arrived early. Duan Yun went to visit his elders and returned to their small circle.

"I heard that Yun Shen found the person." Duan Yun started the conversation, took a sip of the champagne with a bitter aftertaste, pressed his lips and forced a smile that was not really a smile, "When we returned from the dinner that year, we couldn't find the person. Although Yun Shen didn't say anything, he hasn't gathered with us once in these years."

It's impossible to go back to the past.

The year I graduated from college, the secretary of the Jinchuan Provincial Party Committee retired, and each family chose a side. No one expected that Han Che would choose the other side. The Gu family began to have some troubles, and everyone thought that the Gu family was going to fall, and the Song family would suffer as well. Who knew that there would be a reversal later.

The Gu and Song families seemed to have guessed the tricks that some people with bad intentions would use, and they deployed defenses in advance and even used this as an opportunity to fight back, seizing the evidence of political enemies framing the Gu family and the claws of other vassals that had stretched too long, and the Gu family did not make any misjudgment.

A year later, Gu Zemin secured his position as Secretary of the Jinchuan Provincial Party Committee.

The situation in Jinchuan has changed dramatically.

"I don't know if it's true or not. We mobilized the forces of both families but still couldn't find it. It's been missing for eight years. Can we really find it?"

Almost everyone thought that Zhang Xiaoying had met with an accident and it was impossible for her to still be alive after eight years.

"I heard that someone saw him in the hospital. He looks similar, and his age is similar..." Han Che rarely interrupted.

Mu Yan clenched her glass: "Are they similar in age?"

It is impossible for a person to remain unchanged for eight years.

"Mr. Gu."

"Mr. Gu."

"Mr. Gu is here, this is..."

There was a commotion at the door. It was obviously the Duan family's banquet, but the guests coming and going were noisy and lively because of the arrival of another person. People of high status also tried to get closer in the hope of saying a word or two. The business world was flashy, and at first some people called him "Little Mr. Gu", but after a year, no one called him by that title anymore.

The people who came up to greet each other, some of them came too close, Gu Yunshen's cold aura almost overflowed, and he held his wrist with expensive cufflinks neatly in front of Hua Xia, and said in a cold tone: "Everyone, please make way."

His attitude of careful protection was obvious, and offending others would be counterproductive. Those who could come were all smart people, and they all stepped away, only expressing great curiosity about the person Gu Yunshen was protecting.

Gu Yunshen gently held Hua Xia's waist and brought her to one of the protagonists of the banquet, and gave a brief blessing: "Ayun, happy engagement."

It's just a business marriage. Duan Yun could tell that Gu Yunshen was just being perfunctory. They were childhood friends and now they were just superficial friends. Duan Yun's sight was caught by another person, the girl who had disappeared for eight years, looked too young and even her student spirit was still there.

Is it really you?

"Zhang Xiaoying?" Duan Yun moved his lips in disbelief.

The other two people looked over, and Hua Xia responded casually: "Yeah."

Duan Yun exclaimed: "Where did you find it? It really has that tune."

Mu Yan was someone who had come into contact with Hua Xia many times, so she was at least familiar with her. After all, she was someone that her former crush liked. Her eyes would always follow Gu Yunshen's line of sight and focus on the girl. At this moment, the latter had a unique temperament and a leisurely aura, and she did not show any surprise towards them.

Not someone else.

It is impossible for Gu Yunshen to find a substitute.

Wherever he looked, it was only her.

"Ayun, don't talk nonsense." Mu Yan stopped Duan Yun, "This is Zhang Xiaoying."

Duan Yun couldn't help but be curious: "Where did you go eight years ago?"

Hua Xia took Gu Yunshen's arm and held his hand. She could feel his body stiffen because of Duan Yun's question. He remained silent and waited. Hua Xia squeezed the man's arm and looked up at Duan Yun: "Happy engagement."

Duan Yun choked: "......"

A business marriage, where is the happiness? The person he likes doesn't like him...

It’s really Zhang Xiaoying. This person can always accurately grasp the pain point and hit the target with one blow.

Duan Yun: "Thank you..."

Hua Xia narrowed her eyes and smiled: "You're welcome."

Gu Yunshen's eyes were fixed on Hua Xia like nails. Some things were truly as if destined. He was inevitably attracted to her. It was like this when he first met her eight years ago, and it was still like this when he came back eight years later.

There were too many people around who wanted to come forward and talk to them, so Hua Xia found an excuse to go to the dessert area to separate their hands. Gu Yunshen then followed closely, giving others a chance to talk to them.

"Boss Gu, I heard that the big project in the south is finished. Congratulations."

.......

Gu Yunshen picked up a glass of champagne from the waiter and handled the crowd with ease.

On the way, he met the elders of the Duan family, and the atmosphere of business conversation became more intense. However, he raised his eyes from time to time and fell on the rest area not far away. Finally, someone couldn't help but ask out of curiosity: "I don't know, who is Mr. Gu... I have never seen him before."

Gu Yunshen rarely attended business banquets and was always single. Many people wanted to get close to him. Young people from wealthy families, like Duan Yun, had to settle down when they reached a certain age, but they had never heard of the Gu and Song families interfering in the relationship status of their only heir.

A few years ago, someone heard from Gu Yunshen that he had a lover, but after some inquiries, no one found out that she had seen him.

I thought it was just a perfunctory remark, but now I actually met a young woman.

No one could understand the emotion in Gu Yunshen's eyes, but his eyes were more gentle than ever before. When he talked about the woman in the rest area, his voice became gentle and soft: "She is--"

"my wife."

After the pause in his words, there was 100% determination.

Everyone was stunned.

"I haven't heard that Mr. Gu got married..."

"So it's Mr. Gu's wife, no wonder..." No wonder he has been protecting her all the way, keeping his eyes on her all the time.

"Boss Gu and his wife are such a perfect match, the envy of others."

The shrewd businessman saw that Gu Yunshen cared, so he naturally said nice things to him. Gu Yunshen accepted all of his words, lowering his eyelids and not showing any emotion until the banquet ceremony officially began. After the crowd dispersed, Gu Yunshen drank the crystal liquid in the cup, lowered his eyes and sneered meaningfully.

He...really knows how to anesthetize himself...
