Sensing the stiffness of the woman next to him, Gu Yi turns his head to look. Yu Fei can’t stay calm anymore. Her eyes fix on Ko Chen and Yu Yu, and she bites her lower lip so tightly that her lower lip turns white. Gu Yi takes down Yu Fei’s hand which holds him. In her doubtful eyes, his fingers intertwine with hers. He tries to tell her in this silent movement that even if everyone is against her he will stand on her side with no doubt. Yu Fei is a little moved and her lips curl up to show a forced smile. She draws back her eyesight that stays on Ko Chen all the time, turning around to avoid seeing them, “Let’s go.”
Yu Fei has said so and of course Gu Yi will not refuse. They go inside the venue with hand in hand. In fact, Ko Chen has been paying attention to Yu Fei in secret. She is like a fairy and Ko Chen can’t help but be attracted. The distance between Yu Fei and him is only a few steps, but it’s like a huge gap that can’t be crossed. Seeing Gu Yi holding Yu Fei’s hand, walking away step by step, Ko Chen’s eyes turn colder gradually, which seems to freeze people. Yu Yu notices that Ko Chen seems to be a little different. Looking at him with wonder, she unexpectedly meets his scaring look, which makes her heart suddenly pound. Following his eyes, she finds it is Yu Fei.
Yu Yu understands immediately. Her eyes become icy with a hostile flash. Ko Chen always shifts attitude to her, which arouses Yu Yu’s suspicion. Especially one time she heard he murmured Yu Fei’s name when he got drunk, and this thing has been a thorn in her heart. Although she refuses to believe that, she has to admit that Ko Chen is most unlikely to forget Yu Fei. Thinking of that, she gnashes her teeth in anger and hatred. Yu Fei, just wait, Ko Chen will be mine!
Ko Chen takes Yu Yu into the center of the venue. Immediately there are a number of industry bosses who come around them with flattered smiles. Although Ko Chen is young, he has high position in business—-he is the leader of this area. So if they have the chance to cooperate with Ko Chen, they will no longer have to worry their business interest. Such occasions Ko Chen has been through so many times since he was little boy, so he deals with these with efficiency. He holds a glass of wine and treats everyone politely but alienated, which neither shows intimacy nor embarrasses them.
“Mr. Ko, how are you? We haven’t seen for a while.” A greasy male voice comes from behind. Ko Chen slightly frowns, but when he turns his face has returned to its normal state, as if he never had that disgusted expression. This man is also a boss of an established company. He is not tall, bold, with a large belly, looking very experienced. Ko Chen doesn’t have too much contact with him, but he has heard of his romantic affairs. This man is amorous, with a weak wife. It is said that he has slept with the women he can lay his hands on in the entertainment circle.
Without knowing his purpose, Ko Chen stares at him without speaking. The man starts looking at Yu Yu up and down, and his eyes stay at Yu Yu’s chest and thighs for several seconds lustfully, almost slobbering. Yu Yu feels offended, but considering Ko Chen is still beside her, she tries to stay calm and moves closer to Ko Chen without being noticed.
Maybe sensing the hostility of Yu Yu, the man reluctantly withdraws his eyes and looks at Ko Chen again. Meanwhile his hands around the female companion unconsciously move down, then stops in her buttock and pinches, even without any effort to cover his intention in public. Ko Chen sees it clearly, thinking that this man is really a dirty old man as rumors go, as a result, he detests this man more and has no mood to speak to him. However, this boss Wang has no intention to leave, rubbing his girl’s waist and asking “I’ve heard that Mr. Ko has won some projects recently, what an outstanding young entrepreneur. The young men like you are much more talented than us”
Ko Chen slightly curls up his lips, responding perfunctorily. But Mr. Wang doesn’t care Ko Chen’s indifferent attitude, still talking to himself with a hand continuing to touch his companion’s body and glancing at Yu Yu occasionally. Yu Yu has no way to avoid and feels disgusted. Ko Chen notices his behavior, but he wants to trick Yu Yu, so just pretending not to see, while observing secretly Yu Yu’s reaction.
Seeing that Yu Yu is on the verge of outbreak, Ko Chen thinks it’s time to stop, interrupting Mr. Wang who is non-stop speaking, “Sorry, there are several partners waiting for me, maybe we can talk next time.” Without waiting for his answering, Ko Chen has turned around and strides away with extremely arrogance. When Ko Chen leaves, Wang’s expression immediately changes, and the smile disappears completely. He spits with an oblique glance. “Just a silver-spooned kids, how dare you!’” But his attitude changes immediately as soon as his companion comforts him, and flirts with him in public. People around them pretend not to see, but they disdain them in heart.
Yu Yu wears high-heeled shoes tonight, so it’s difficult to follow the steps of Ko Chen. She whispers to him, “Chen, slow down, I can’t keep up with you.” Ko Chen turns a deaf ear to her words and doesn’t slow his pace a little. Yu Yu feels hurt by his apathy, biting the lower lip with a little anger. Things are normal when they left home, but he changes as soon as he sees Yu Fei… Yu Yu curls up her lips and becomes more hostile to Yu Fei.
On the other side, Gu Yi and Yu Fei walk into the venue. All kinds of perfume mixed with the smell of food makes Yu Fei feel a wave of nausea. Gu Yi is talking with others happily, and Yu Fei doesn’t want to interrupt them, so she quietly stands and walks to the balcony. Closing the door on the balcony, and all the sound in the venue immediately fading away, Yu Fei takes a deep breath of fresh air, feeling better, then she stands on the balcony looking at the distance in a daze. This hidden position with a large pot of green plants can block others’ eyes. Yu Fei turns her head to see inside. Gu Yi is still talking to others without noticing her absent.
This is not Yu Fei’s first time to attend this kind of banquet, but it is the first time she is least willing to attend, especially at the moment she saw Ko Chen, her idea is further confirmed. If she knows that she will encounter Ko Chen in this kind of situation, she will definitely refuse Gu Yi. She smiles bitterly, looking down at her belly, and saying to herself , “Yu Fei, why are you trying to deceive yourself? How can he not be invited to this kind of party? The reason you promised Gu Yi is that you want to see him again. You can’t forget him …” Her scattered hair is blown by colder wind of the night.
