“Yes,” Luo Qing said. “It’s not convenient for the people from Ling Pavilion. It’s better for you to go. I’ll send someone to help you.”
“Get close to that rich businessman, Yang Lin?” Qiao Xi said casually, “This isn’t difficult. There’s no need to send anyone. I’ll contact you after I complete the mission.”
Luo Qing instructed, “Alright, be careful.”
Qiao Xi smiled sweetly. “Don’t worry, Second Brother!”
Ling Pavilion did not accept orders easily. This time, Second Brother specially asked her to do this and approach the rich businessman, Yang Lin. There must be a special reason.
Qiao Xi turned on her computer and logged into Black Tide’s account. She investigated Yang Lin’s information within Stars’ system, but there was very little information. However, someone who could make Second Brother personally instruct her to take the mission was definitely not ordinary.
Her slender fingers quickly typed on the keyboard, and information slowly appeared. The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth curled into a cold smile.
This man was really not simple!
…
Two days later.

At seven in the evening, the charity banquet was officially held. Qiao Xi had already approached Yang Lin two days ago under the alias ‘Bai Lu’. At this moment, she was preparing the materials to disguise herself in the bedroom before meeting up with Yang Lin.
Suddenly, Song Shiyu’s voice came from outside the door. “Young Madam, what gown will you be wearing today?”
The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth twitched slightly. “???”
“Originally, the president said that he wouldn’t be attending this banquet. I didn’t expect him to suddenly say that he was going to attend this morning. I guessed that you’d definitely be attending as well, so I came to ask which gown you want to wear. I’ll get someone to send it over to you.”
Qiao Xi was stunned for a moment. Was Gu Zheng going too? Gu Zheng did not like such occasions. He had always donated money, but he never attended. Why was he suddenly attending this time?
She was sure that Gu Zheng would not go, so she agreed to take on this mission. But now…
Qiao Xi’s expression changed as her body abruptly froze.
She was attending the banquet as Yang Lin’s female companion. If Gu Zheng found out, she would be in trouble.
Perhaps it was because he saw her gradually terrified expression, the corners of Gu Zheng’s lips curled up slightly. He quietly entered and walked to her side. He said in a low voice, “Mrs. Gu.”
Qiao Xi’s entire body trembled, and her heart skipped a beat.
The man leaned behind her, his hot breath spraying behind her ears. His magnetic voice slowly sounded. “Have you thought of which gown to wear?”
Qiao Xi looked at the dress album Song Shiyu handed her and felt troubled.
“Pick one you like. The makeup team will come to our house to help you dress up later. We’ll set off together after you’re done getting ready,” Gu Zheng said softly.
Qiao Xi was even more perturbed now. What should she do?!
“There’s a sapphire necklace being bid at the charity banquet this time. I remember that you designed a blue gown previously. It’s a perfect match. I’ll bid for it and give it to you, okay?”
His voice was gentle, and his gaze was doting. It was like spring, making one unable to help but indulge in it.
Qiao Xi was extremely regretful now. She should not have agreed to Second Brother’s request to take on this mission. The most infuriating thing was that Yang Lin had done too many bad things and even wanted to cause trouble at the charity banquet.

She hesitated for a moment and said tentatively, “Ah Zheng… I… I won’t go today.”
The more she spoke, the softer her voice became. She gradually lost her confidence and could only lower her head.
Gu Zheng lowered his eyes to look at her, his eyes filled with affection. His voice was also filled with smiles. “Why?”
Qiao Xi’s body trembled slightly. She kept having the feeling that this question was meaningful. If she did not give a reasonable excuse, she would not be able to walk out of this door today.
If Gu Zheng knew that she was getting close to Yang Lin, he would definitely help her complete the mission. However, there were so many eyes on Gu Zheng now. If he got close to Yang Lin at this time, he would be suspected of having ulterior motives.
Qiao Xi thought hard. What reason could make Gu Zheng believe her?
After a long silence, Qiao Xi’s eyes shifted, then she cried out in surprise. Her eyes were slightly red as she revealed a pitiful expression. “My stomach hurts, and I’m not feeling well. I can’t go.”
Gu Zheng’s gentle gaze slowly moved from her face to her stomach, then he smiled meaningfully. “I see. Then the gown at your door…”
“Actually, I wanted to go with you, so I prepared the gown. Who knew that my body would fail me?! I’m still too weak.”
Qiao Xi chuckled. “Yes, that’s right.”
Gu Zheng did not continue asking and nodded. “Alright, you don’t have to go if you’re not feeling well. I’ll go myself.”
“Yes,” Luo Qing said. “It’s not convenient for the people from Ling Pavilion. It’s better for you to go. I’ll send someone to help you.”
“Get close to that rich businessman, Yang Lin?” Qiao Xi said casually, “This isn’t difficult. There’s no need to send anyone. I’ll contact you after I complete the mission.”
