Chapter Sixty-One: Attending the Banquet

u're the one celebrating your birthday, no wonder..." 。He had been about to pull her hand back into the house, taking hold of her arm, his fingers accidentally touching the skin of her exposed hand....Xu Yixue, who was still familiarizing herself with the work, heard someone knocking on the door. She went out to open it, and the middle-aged man stood outside the door.

"Hello, Ms. Xu."

Then respectfully, he said to Gu Xicheng who came out next, "Young Master, Miss Xu's dress has arrived. The makeup artist and stylist are also here."

The following few people, with apprehensive hearts, respectfully called out, "Mr. Gu."

The middle-aged man standing beside them said, "Young Master, Miss Xu, these are the makeup artists and hairstylists."

Take her to the room.

"Yes."

"Ms. Xu, please follow me."

The middle-aged man led Xu Yixue towards one of the innermost rooms, while the others scrambled to follow.

Upon entering a room, they found a dressing table already set up. The middle-aged man first introduced himself to Xu Yixue: "Miss Xu, I am the young master's butler. Everyone calls me Butler Gu. If Miss Xu has anything you need, please feel free to ask me."

Xu Yixue glanced at him, gave a casual "um" and asked the others: "What do I need to do now"

Miss Xu, please go change into your dress.

One person hurriedly handed her the dress box.

Xu Yixue took the box and, following Gu Shu's guidance, went into the small room inside this room.

The gift box was very large. When Xu Yixue opened it, she found that there was not only a dress inside, but also shoes and jewelry.

She took out a dress and shook it open. It was a light purple, winter style, mini dress. The design was simple and elegant; besides showing off her pretty legs, it didn't reveal much else.

Even so, Xu Yixue still expressed some disapproval: "Why prepare a short skirt in the middle of winter Aren't people here afraid of the cold"

Although she wasn't very satisfied, since she had promised, she wouldn't go back on her word and put on the dress.

Then take out the matching pair of high heels.

Only after seeing the thin, high heels did she decide: "This should be fine to wear to the ball."

After finishing, she placed it beside him and then took out the jewelry set.

Jewelry includes headwear, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets.

Xu Yixue didn't put on the jewelry; instead, she took it and walked out directly.

As soon as she stepped out, the group of people waiting outside were all instantly awestruck.

She was naturally fair and slender, her features well-proportioned. In this dress, coupled with her aura, she exuded an air of nobility and confidence, radiating the essence of a queen.

Suddenly, several people felt an urge to bow to her.

Xu Yixue glanced at a few people, walked over and sat down, saying coolly: "The banquet will be held at 6:30 pm. If you guys stand around for a while longer, Gu Zong and I won't have to go."

This statement, like a stick, immediately woke up several people.

The makeup artists and hairstylists were bustling with activity.

They spent half an hour putting makeup and styling Xiuxue Xu's hair.

The stylist didn't put all of Hsu Yi-xue's hair up, but instead styled it into a princess bun and adorned her with a tiara. She was the most distinguished princess.

Having done all that, Xu Yixue, under the gaze of several pairs of eyes, left with her sneakers on and a pair of high heels in hand.

When Xu Yixue walked back to Gu Xicheng's office, she saw him standing by the window taking a phone call.

He didn't speak, but at this moment, a murderous aura emanated from him.

I don't know what the other party said, he just snorted coldly.

"Solved."

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone and put it away, at the same time turning around.

When he saw Xu Yixue standing at the doorstep, a dark light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Then, her high heels caught my eye. "Why don't you change into your shoes"

Xu Yixue walked up to him in her heels, and upon seeing that he had also changed into a suit, she took a look at him from head to toe before saying: "I'm planning on putting these on when we reach our destination. I'm not used to wearing high heels."

Gu XiCheng glanced at the sneakers on her feet and didn't say anything. He walked over, picked up a gift box nearby, opened it, and revealed a long coat. He walked over and draped it over her shoulders.

Damn, still showing a little ankle.watched helplessly as she fell."Was it her She pushed me down!"Li Tingting pointed at Xu Yixue, her voice trembling with anger.People passing by all looked up and saw that it was General Gu's assistan...
