Chapter 8 The Youth is Like Jade
But men's clothing really pales in comparison to women's by more than just a fraction. If not for the fear of disclosing her true gender, she would've been blacklisted by the whole internet; she couldn't help wishing she could wear pretty fairy dresses every day.
Ye Xian turned her walk-in closet upside down and finally spotted a box of unopened suits on the topmost shelf—FAMOUS BRAND.
As expected from a renowned men's clothing brand under the Bo Group, the quality was indeed remarkable: the low-key yet luxurious hue, the meticulous and careful craftsmanship, the tailored fit.
Once she put it on, her whole demeanor changed.
She transformed from a spirited country lad to a dashing nobleman of high society in an instant.
Indeed, clothes make the man, and horses need their saddles. Ye Xian adjusted her sleeves in the mirror and applied a subtle touch of men's makeup.
In the mirror, the youth in a pristine white suit looked fresh and refined, with a sly smile curving his lips, and under the mist-covered mountainous brows, his eyes shone bright like the moon among clouds, an exceptionally rare gem among men. In this garb, he was sure to dazzle the entire room tonight.
Ye Xian cocked his head, jubilantly tousling his hair—wait a minute... this green hair, who was he planning to scare?
At 6:00 PM, the Xiangjiang Hotel was aglow with brilliant lights, stars shone bright, and hundreds of luxury cars filled the banks of the river. Dozens of bodyguards at the entrance were busy greeting distinguished guests and checking invitations.
"Lin Yan, I hear your concert in Tong City was a hit, huh? Not only did tickets sell out in a flash, but it was also packed to the rafters every show. With such popularity, you still made it back midway to attend Chairman Bo's banquet?"
Cary swayed the champagne glass in hand, teasing the man beside him.
Lin Yan cracked a slight smile, "Quit joking around with me. You dared to come back in the middle of filming Lychee TV's gold-rated variety show. What's there for me to be afraid of?"
"Pff~"
Cary tugged at his slightly open collar, exchanging a smile with him, "Of course! How could I miss welcoming the CEO back to the country, how could I not be here as a loyal lackey?"
The birthday of Chairman Bo Yuanshan was, in principle, a private affair. The reason the major media were making such a big deal out of it was that Bo Tingshen, the man in power at the Bo Group and CEO, was officially returning from the international market today to announce that he would be shifting his focus back to domestic work.
The Crown Prince of the Bo Family, the supreme leader of the Bo Group, the man behind the scenes at Star Entertainment, and a top-tier mogul of the fashion industry was coming back.
Everyone looked up to him, everyone was anticipating, everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of his elegance.
"You are all here."
Jiang Wanze walked over from backstage, and Lin Yan greeted him, "Captain."
"Eh?"
Cary, seeing him approaching alone, looked behind him in confusion, "Captain, where's Ye's follower? Isn't he always the first to follow you wherever you go?"
"Don't know."
At the mention of Ye Xian, Jiang Wanze's sunny expression soured slightly.
Lin Yan gave Cary a look, and Cary immediately shut up, understandingly. Given the captain's expression, that Ye's follower must've upset him again.
So, is he not going to show up tonight? Or did the captain retract his invitation? They were all looking forward to his antics...
Just as he was thinking this, a stir suddenly arose at the entrance to the Banquet Hall.
"Who is he?"
"So handsome, how can this boy have such delicate features?"
"Is he from the circle? How come I've never seen him before?"
"I've never seen him either..."
A long red carpet stretched from the hotel entrance to the center of the Banquet Hall, spotlights rained down on it, illuminating each guest as they walked in. When the light slowly enveloped a young man in white, many people craned their necks to see.
