Knowing that tonight is the Wen family banquet, Yun Yuwan couldn’t help but feel awkward thinking of the earlier misunderstanding, where she thought Wen Yangzhi wanted her as his date.

She wonders if Zhou Xing knows she mistook the Tourmaline Necklace for hers and even got angry with Wen Yangzhi because of it.

Wen Yangzhi seemingly could see through her thoughts and, while looking at his computer screen, said nonchalantly, “I heard Mrs. Chen from Chen Real Estate once complimented your flower arranging skills.”

“Yeah, but that was when I had just returned to the country,” Yun Yuwan said, lying on the sofa opposite him with her Kindle, reading a novel.

“I’m planning to have Zhou Xing and the Asset Management Department’s General Manager attend together,” Wen Yangzhi’s intentions were inscrutable.

Yun Yuwan propped her head and looked at him sideways, “What do you mean by these two attending together?”

Wen Yangzhi slowly lifted his gaze, watching her with a ripple-less depth in his eyes, “Having Zhou Xing as the date is because her mother is friends with Mrs. Chen from Chen Real Estate, and the Wen family is looking to collaborate with Chen Real Estate, hoping to get a bit closer.”

Yun Yuwan, who initially felt lost in the fog, suddenly looked up and realized:

“So you’re without a date and want me to be yours?”

Wen Yangzhi returned his gaze to the computer screen, “Teachable moments.”

Yun Yuwan was uncertain, “Do you think I can hit it off with Mrs. Chen?”

He gave her a glance and assessed objectively, “I think you’re quite good at getting along with people.”

Praised by Wen Yangzhi, she couldn’t help but smile up to her temples, “That’s too much credit.”

She put down the Kindle and stood up, “So I’m to be your date for the banquet?”

Wen Yangzhi hummed lightly in affirmation.

Yun Yuwan had not expected that the thing she had deliberately avoided before would, in a blink of an eye, become the legitimate reason she could hold hands with Wen Yangzhi in public.

She happily trotted out in her slippers to choose an evening gown.

Seeing how easily she was coaxed, Wen Yangzhi couldn’t help but smile faintly.

In the evening, the Wen family’s banquet wasn’t held in a star-rated hotel banquet hall but directly in a state-level banquet hall, where people were more solemn and proper than usual and couldn’t joke easily. The logos on the menu and stone columns weren’t those of a hotel but the national emblem.

Wen Bank’s status was distinct from ordinary commercial groups, being state-owned and a major bank in the economic hub.

Upon arrival at the banquet hall, the Wen family’s deputy governor first visited the manager of the hall service to exchange pleasantries before opening the doors to the guests.

It lacked the luxury of other opulent hotels, but entry to this banquet hall was a form of understated boasting.

Yun Yuwan dressed elegantly and gracefully, in a light green silk fishtail gown that was modest without revealing too much skin. Her hair was done in a low chignon, slightly French in style, blending dignity with the vitality of youth, like a fresh willow after the rain.

But Zhou Fei appeared earlier and first met Zhao Qin.

Zhao Qin’s smile was sincere upon seeing Zhou Fei, “Xiaofei, I heard you went on a business trip to the United States. I haven’t seen you in over ten days.”

Zhou Fei approached with a beaming smile and hugged Zhao Qin, “Aunt Qin, I’ve missed you. How have you become even more beautiful in these ten days without me knowing?”

Surprised, Zhao Qin smiled, “Can you tell? I got a Thermage treatment.”

Zhou Fei teased, “It’s quite obvious, your nasolabial folds are gone.”

Laughing, Zhao Qin returned the hug as she casually placed her handbag on the table.

But she forgot to take the handbag when she left.

Zhou Fei picked up the evening bag and carried it up to the VIP lounge on the upper floor, placing it on the resting room’s table.

Seeing Wen Yangzhi hadn’t come down yet, Yun Yuwan also went upstairs to find him in the private rest area.

Wen Yangzhi was standing with his back to the door, looking out the window at the stream of elite figures below. Although standing at the greatest heights, he bore an air of solitude, as if he felt the chill of heights.

She quietly closed the door, embracing his waist from behind. Her wrist wrapped around to his front where she could feel the clearly defined, smooth muscle beneath his shirt, holding him as if leaning on a load-bearing wall, knowing he could stand firmly, knowing he could be relied upon.

Wen Yangzhi remained unruffled, simply flicking the ash from his fingertips.

Together, they embraced in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows at the highest point, below them a myriad of distinguished guests.

Zhou Fei witnessed Yun Yuwan ascending, and the spark of hope within her heart dimmed bit by bit.

After mingling for a while, Zhao Qin abruptly remembered her missing handbag.

In it were the crucial keys to her safety deposit box. Fortunately, Zhou Fei had arrived, and Zhao Qin asked, “Xiaofei, have you seen my handbag?”

Zhou Fei, ever considerate and meticulous, replied, “I noticed you didn’t take it, so I put it in Director Wen’s private rest room.”

Relieved, Zhao Qin excused herself and went upstairs after mentioning it to Wen Wei.
