Long Xi was still her usual level-headed self, and did not allow herself to be carried away by the media attention earlier. She knew exactly what to do and when to do it.

After all, she was still a student. Studying was her first priority!

In the evening, Lord Mo Kun knocked on her office door and took her to the Condor Hotel to attend the opening ceremony c.u.m reception.

Long Xi changed into a full-length fishtail dress she brought, a formal dress she designed herself. It was more suitable for the occasion.

The primary color of this dress was a fresh pastel pink. The whole dress was covered with a thick layer of pink gold flakes, which looked very dazzling, like a pink river of stars.

The dress was designed to be tight all over, showing her exquisitely graceful figure and also highlighting her slender and charming waist.

The cuffs and back of the dress were decorated with pink gauze, like an angel's pair of translucent wings.

The skirt of the lower body was designed to look like light gauze cascading to the ground. It made her like a mermaid princess, who had secretly come ash.o.r.e.

Mo Kun looked at the pure dress she wore, with satisfaction. The dress was a little conservative and did not have a deep V collar to prevent her body from being seen by others. It was exactly what he hoped.

He stretched out his arm toward Long Xi, and she took his arm. Suddenly, she made a beautiful twirl, like a dance move in a waltz.

Her curly hair, which was dyed golden brown, cascaded down her back, covering the big V of her back, like the story of the singsong girl written by Bai Juyi, holding the pipa to cover her face!

There was a small part of her luminous skin that was revealed, which was as delicate and white as porcelain. This fascinated people, and they felt like they wanted to catch more of a glimpse of this tantalizing sight.

Mo Kun was immediately unhappy and said sourly, "Baby, you better put that suit on."

Long Xi reached out, twisted his ears, and said with a smile, "Again? My lord vinegar, why am I dressed so beautifully? It's because I'm showing respect for your feelings!"

Mo Kun grabbed her hand, put it to his mouth, and kissed it. He bit her little finger, and said with a smile, "After this, you're going to design a pair of s.e.xy couple pajamas, just for the two of us."

Long Xi blushed. They snuggled together, enjoying this moment of great comfort.

The room was so quiet that time seemed to stop flowing.

At seven o'clock in the evening, they arrived at the reception, together.

Everyone wore gorgeous clothes, and had on glittering jewellery.

All the employees of Mo Kun's company, business tyc.o.o.ns, relatives, and friends invited by Long Xi and himself, were at the reception.

In fact, Long Xi also invited her grandmother, who had initially planned to come. However, grandma had rheumatism, and had not fully recovered yet, so she was not able to attend. Long Xi promised to show her the videos of the venue.

Mo Kun and Long Xi walked, hand in hand, into the magnificent venue. The venue which was bustling earlier on, suddenly became eerily quiet.

Everyone held their breath and looked at the couple in the spotlight.

Even Fan Xiaolu, who was officially invited to the reception by Mo Kun and Long Xi, also stared in disbelief. Was she still Master Xi, who usually wore no makeup? No, she was a fairy of startling beauty!

Weiwei, standing next to Xiaolu, looked at Long Xi, and her sweet smile disappeared. She was so shocked and felt an indescribable emotion stirring within her.

She was not the kind of girl who could hide her emotions well!

Weiwei received a formal invitation from Long Xi a few days ago. She had not planned to attend, initially.

Later she heard that Xiaolu was planning to attend. She was a little worried about his relations.h.i.+p with Long Xi, so she changed her mind and said, "I'll go, too. Shall we be dancing partners?"

Xiaolu did not refuse her, so he asked the driver to pick Weiwei and came to the reception with her.

Xiaolu kindly sent Weiwei an apricot-yellow dress, which fitted her very well. Weiwei looked very lovely in it, but compared with Long Xi's attire, she was a little overshadowed.

Long Xi was naturally beautiful. Coupled with the amazing makeup, hairstyle, and clothes, she was an extraordinary vision!

Weiwei could not help feeling a little ashamed. At the same time, she felt a little jealous.

Just then, Weiwei gallantly brought him a gla.s.s of juice and a small plate of fruit, saying coquettishly, "Xiaolulu, I can't dance. You must ask me for the first dance and teach me!"

Xiaolu nodded absently, and his eyes seemed to be searching for something.

Although he did not say anything, Weiwei knew who he was looking for.

She understood the subtext in Xiaolu's heart. If possible, Xiaolu would like to ask Long Xi for the first dance. The only reason why he didn't do so, was because Long Xi already had Mo Kun as her dance partner.

After thinking it over, Weiwei was very angry, and the consequence was very serious! In her mind, Long Xi was no longer her friend, but the stumbling block between Xiaolu and herself!

Mo Kun and Long Xi greeted the business tyc.o.o.ns. After exchanging a few words, they went over to Xiaolu and Weiwei.

Mo Kun joked like what Deng Chao did in the TV program, Running Man, "We are so honored to have you here!"

Long Xi took Weiwei's hand and said happily, "Weiwei, you came, does it mean that you forgive me?"

Weiwei drew back her hand and said coldly, "Of course I forgive you! Thank you for giving Xiaolu to me. You can give me what you don't want. You don't want it, but I want it!"

Long Xi was stunned. Her hands were still stretched out awkwardly, as she froze at Wei Wei's remarks.

Mo Kun's facial expression changed slightly, and it seemed like he was about to lose his temper. Xiaolu said, "Weiwei, how could you say that? You're too wayward!"

With tears in her eyes, Weiwei cried out, "Yes, I'm so wayward! I'm not as sensible and reasonable as Long Xi! In your heart, she is better than me in every way! She gives me alms like a beggar, don't I even have the right to say thanks?"

Her voice was so loud that everyone looked askance at them.

Fearing that she might disrupt Mo Kun and Long Xi's reception today, Xiaolu said to Mo Kun and Long Xi, "Sorry, she's drunk and is talking nonsense. Alas, it's my fault. If I knew this would happen, I'll stop her from coming."

Afterward, he pulled Weiwei out of the venue.

Long Xi felt a little dejected.

Mo Kun put his arm around her shoulder and patted her twice, to comfort her.

Just as Xiaolu left, Yu Lanjie, dressed in a light blue outfit, arrived.

Her legs had not fully recovered yet. It was a man who had helped her to come in.

To Long Xi's surprise, the man who helped her, was Yan w.a.n.gchuan.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan looked somewhat like a scholar. Tonight, he looked very gentle and elegant in a silver-gray suit, with a white s.h.i.+rt and a light-colored tie.

When he saw Long Xi and Mo Kun, he showed a smile on his gentle, jade-like face, and there were not too many thoughts in his pretty eyes.

Holding Yu Lanjie's arm, who flushed with shyness, he came slowly, and said faintly to Mo Kun and Long Xi, "Congratulations!"

Long Xi took Yu Lanjie by the hand and asked anxiously, "You two?"

Yu Lanjie nodded shyly and whispered to her, "He asked me out this morning and confessed his love for me."

Long Xi looked at Yan w.a.n.gchuan and said, "Brother w.a.n.gchuan, Lanlan is a good girl. You should treat her well!"

Yan w.a.n.gchuan nodded slightly, smiled shallowly, and said unhurriedly, "I will. After going through so many things, I find that she is the most suitable girl for me. She is like a clear brook, which can wash away the restlessness in my heart. Xiaolongnv, are we still good friends?"

Long Xi said with a smile, "Of course we are!"

Yan w.a.n.gchuan looked at Mo Kun, smiled and said, "Teacher Mo Kun will not welcome me, will you?"

Mo Kun narrowed his eyes and said, "You are the boyfriend of my girlfriend's best friend. How could I not welcome you?"

What he was implying was that if you were not the boyfriend of Long Xi's best friend, I will indeed not welcome you.

Long Xi quietly pulled at his clothes. "Dear, you don't have to be so sharp-tongued, okay?"

In fact, she did not know that Lord Mo Kun's sharpness of tongue was actually understandable. He knew too well what Yan w.a.n.gchuan was thinking! Because Lord Mo Kun's subsidiary chip was in Yan w.a.n.gchuan's brain!

He knew that the reason and purpose why Yan w.a.n.gchuan was after Yu Lanjie, were not that simple at all!

However, he did not intend to expose Yan w.a.n.gchuan now, because he thought it was fine. At least Long Xi would not feel guilty and pity, for rebuffing Yan w.a.n.gchuan anymore!

It was a so-called fond love. Sometimes compa.s.sion could also give birth to love. Mo Kun wanted to put an end to the possibility that Long Xi might love Yan w.a.n.gchuan out of compa.s.sion.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan shook hands with him politely. He probably wanted to use practical actions to show that they could bury the hatchet.

Mo Kun laughed and pretended that he didn't know what tricks Yan w.a.n.gchuan was playing!

At this time, most of the invited guests were already present. The host came on stage, announced that the evening party had officially began, and invited president Mo Kun, the host of today's reception, to speak on stage.

The applause sounded like thunder!

With great style, handsome Lord Mo Kun stepped onto the stage and said into the microphone, "Distinguished guests, good evening! I'm Mo Kun, the Mo of Moli, the Kun of Qiankun. It is my fiancée Long Xi, who gave me this name. So the first person I want to thank is my fiancée, she gave me a good name..."

Laughter and applause burst from the audience! Many eyes fell on the glorious Long Xi standing on the stage. Several young people whistled uncontrollably a few times.

Mo Kun was not nervous at all. He was very natural and graceful throughout, full of confidence. His deep, melodious voice left a lasting impression on the audience.

Long Xi smiled graciously the whole time. Her eyes were fixed on the glowing Lord Mo Kun on the stage, who showed their affection as the main and introduced his company as the subsidiary. She felt a warmth in her heart, as if she had just eaten a hot pot in the severe winter!

Yan w.a.n.gchuan acted as if nothing happened, he applauded and laughed like other people. But his heart was full of envy and hate. "One day, I would defeat you and take Long Xi back!"

Yu Lanjie snuggled up to him, full of happiness, with her first love. She did not notice his anomaly at all.
