"Sister, are you trying to lower yourself or have your eyes damaged by wearing those ancient glasses over time?" Chu Wei did not agree. This woman clearly covered her beauty. Oh, Chu Wei couldn't wait to go back to the office and showing Ling Yue's photo. Her colleagues must be surprised. "Believe in yourself a little. In this way, Our Mr. Xi Jian will not feel ashamed bring you out."

"Now, sit down first, let's wait for your partner to pick you up." Andy pushed her slowly toward the waiting room. Ten minutes later, they felt a suffocating aura. Chu Wei and Andy quickly stepped aside before Xi Jian saw their whereabouts. Gave Ling Yue a make over at first seemed like a good idea, but finding Xi Jian with wide, straight steps approached with a gloomy face, somehow they felt this was a bad idea.

Ling Yue stood up slowly as Xi Jian arrived in front of her. They stared at each other long enough before Ling Yue finally broke their silence. "Too much?"

Ling Yue wore a light blue ankle-length sleeveless dress. She looks fresh. Her hair was loose, slightly weaved in the front left, and only left her bangs combed to the right side. The dress wrapped around her body perfectly. Ling Yue walked toward him because Xi Jian didn't respond.

That's when Xi Jian came to his senses and saw the dress cut high in the front from her thighs to the ankles when Ling Yue walked, which was clearly showing her long legs and her high heels shoes chosen by Chu Wei.

Beside that slit, the dress looked simple. It even didn't show her collarbone. Ling Yue slightly swayed because she wasn't used to wearing ten-inch heels. She could tolerate it only up to seven inches. Chu Wei insisted she should wore it, couple with the dress and her purse.

Xi Jian reflexively reached out to help her stabilize herself. Finding Ling Yue to be a little taller made Xi Jian feel strange. Ling Yue's height usually only reach his shoulder, not his chin like this. Xi Jian didn't need to look down too much when stared at her.

"Is it weird?" Ling Yue began to worry that her appearance was too much for the launch party. Not like at her grandfather's party event. Although at that moment she felt excessive, at least Ling Yue only felt a bit awkward for their introduction.

"Brother Jian, why are you silent? Do I have to change?" Ling Yue sometimes blurted out calling him brother.

Xi Jian swallowed a lump in his throat. "There's no time. Let's go."

He wanted to tell Ling Yue to change and choose not to attend this party. Xi Jian wants to be absent so that Ling Yue doesn't need to show this appearance. But this launch was an important event for the company where he had to talk a little to support the production team and convince his business partners.

Ling Yue glanced at Chu Wei and Andy who clenched their fists and wished her luck. What luck? She walked like a turtle and was unable to keep up with Xi Jian's wide steps.

Bai Xu was stunned when he saw Xi Jian leading a beautiful and graceful woman out of the salon. He almost blurted out they should have picked Ling Yue. Bai Xu didn't blink at all as they drew closer.

"Lower your gaze" Xi Jian reprimanded Bai Xu. He blinked many times when he realized that woman was Ling Yue and looked down. He then opened the back door. "Sorry boss."

Bai Xu who sat on the front passenger seat rummaged his small box and handed a light blue tie to his boss. Xi Jian looked at it and glanced on Ling Yue direction. He then changed his brown tie with the same color of her dress. Bai Xu always on guard. He had items that his boss often uses for traveling or emergencies in the car. Like this tie for example. He smiled admiringly at the two people sitting behind.

They arrived at the venue when it was already crowded. Several media which invited stood at the entrance. Busy taking images from businessmen who come, several performers and other important people. Ling Yue widened her eyes.

"You didn't say it was a big party!" she protested. Luckily, she followed Chu Wei whine. Xi Jian didn't look slightest at her. He got out first, walked around the car and reached out his hand as Bai Xu opened the car door on Ling Yue's side.

Ling Yue took Xi Jian's hand and the legs that look enchanting come out first. Xi Jian helped her out and they were ready on the red carpet. Ling Yue held her hand on Xi Jian's arm and together, they walked like king and queen who were ready to claim their kingdom.

All cameras were aimed at both of them. This was gonna be an uproar. They took as many pictures as possible. Especially the woman next to Xi Jian whom they had never seen before.

"Mr. Xi, who is this your beautiful partner?"

"Which model are you from, Miss?"

"Are you a new artist? We've never seen you before!"

"Which family is this woman from, Mr. Xi?"

"You have never brought a woman on any event. Is this candidate of Mrs. Xi, Mr. Xi?" and Ling Yue heard someone asking, which made her almost laugh.

"Which goddess are you from? What generation?"

When they saw this goddess smile, they did not waste this opportunity and make sure to capture that smile. Xi Jian didn't answer any questions and kept walking in.
