Mr. Yan, wake up! Your wife isn't a delicate little flower.

Cheng Xihe looks absolutely stunning tonight.

Her makeup was flawless, her face exquisite, and even her eyes held a gentle gaze, making her look like a noble goddess.

"Good, very good!"

Qin Jian couldn't help but shout "Good!" a few times.

His money was definitely not wasted.

Looking at Qin Jian's face, which was flushed with excitement, Cheng Xi frowned unhappily: "Instead of worrying about my appearance, you should change your own clothes."

He was wearing the clothes he usually wears to and from get off work.

The suit and shirt were old-fashioned, and the jacket was a bit wrinkled, giving off a very old-fashioned vibe.

"I'll be quick, and I don't have to do anything!"

Qin Jian went in and changed into a new suit, and had his hair slicked back, making him look even greasy.

Cheng Xihe couldn't hide the disdain in her eyes: "If you weren't so greasy, you would look much more refreshing."

Qin Jian: ?

It felt like I'd just heard a bunch of nonsense.

Sitting on the sofa outside, Qin Jian looked Cheng Xihe up and down again: "Xihe, why aren't you wearing the dress I prepared for you?"

That's not one Susu wore; I just bought it for you, it's the latest style dress.

"It's so ugly, how can I wear it?"

Cheng Xihe retorted without hesitation.

What would it look like to wear that pink dress?

After a pause, before Qin Jian could speak, Cheng Xihe frowned: "You're still planning to let me wear what she wore to the banquet?"

No, no.

Qin Jian quickly raised his hand to refute.

Before Cheng Xihe could speak again, Qin Jian quickly changed the subject: "It's nothing, it's nothing. This dress is quite pretty. Did the studio provide it for you?"

"Um."

Cheng Xihe calmly crossed her legs, holding a small handbag in her hand, which was also chosen for her by the stylist.

"What time is it? What are we waiting for here?"

Seeing Cheng Xihe's displeasure, Qin Jian quickly explained, "Your Aunt Zhang and Susu are in the studio across the street."

I'll give them a heads-up; it should be ready soon.

"Is it enough for just the two of us to go?"

Because of what happened tonight, Cheng Xihe specifically left Qin Shengxia at home, with Bai Ce watching over her.

Qin Jian said without changing his expression, "They also have to socialize, so naturally they have to go. I didn't force them."

"oh."

Cheng Xihe stopped speaking.

Feeling a little embarrassed, Qin Jian turned to the stylist: "This dress is beautiful. Has anyone worn it before?"

"No, this is my first appearance," the stylist replied truthfully.

Qin Jian said with satisfaction, "This dress is nice, we'll buy it. Name your price."

The stylist was flattered: "Really?"

"Um."

Qin Jian spent 100,000 to buy the dress and said to Cheng Xihe, "You must perform well tonight. Where's the tablet I gave you? Turn it on and take a look."

"What's so interesting about it? I've already memorized everything," Cheng Xihe said nonchalantly.

Now it was Qin Jian's turn to be dumbfounded: "You memorized it all? More than twenty pages, so many words, you memorized them all?"

"Don't get it wrong."

"I'm not an idiot, how long do I have to memorize this little bit of information?" Cheng Xihe tossed the tablet back to Qin Jian and sat back on the sofa.

Qin Jian, unconvinced, picked up the tablet: "Since you say you've memorized it all, let me test you, okay?"

"Whatever."

Cheng Xihe remained silent with a cold expression.

Qin Jian casually asked about the information of a few people.

Cheng Xihe answered fluently.

Moreover, she didn't just memorize it; she added her own insights.

"How is it?"

Raising an eyebrow at Qin Jian, Cheng Xihe said, "Do you want to ask any more questions? Haven't you asked enough?"

"I won't ask anymore."

Qin Jian couldn't help but admire Cheng Xihe's truly remarkable memory.

No wonder she was able to get into A University on her own merit; she's no pushover.

You underestimated her.

"Honey, is Xihe done with her makeup?" Zhang Zhiyue asked, pushing open the studio door in her high heels.

The wind chimes on the door made a crisp sound.

Qin Jian stood up and said, "Everything is ready, we're just waiting for you."

"it is good."

Zhang Zhiyue glanced to the side and immediately spotted Cheng Xihe: "Xihe, you look beautiful today."

"Um."

As Zhang Zhiyue looked over, Cheng Xihe also began to scrutinize her.

Zhang Zhiyue was dressed very elegantly and luxuriously today.

Unlike Cheng Xihe's aloof goddess vibe, Zhang Zhiyue's attire exudes a beauty sculpted by wealth and time.

Prosperous appearance.

She wore a black velvet gown with a long velvet shawl, which was just right for the air-conditioned hotel.

The small V-neck design better highlights the multi-million dollar ruby ​​necklace worn around the neck.

It was the same one that Qin Jian had given him before.

She was also holding a newly released handbag, small and exquisite.

It can't hold anything; it's just a decoration.

Look down.

Zhang Zhiyue was wearing pointed stilettos made of matte velvet.

Her hair was tied up in a low bun at the back of her head, adorned with beautiful jewelry.

Standing in front of Qin Jian, who was dressed in a suit but whose belly was not quite concealed, she looked like an elegant swan with a bear, overshadowing him.

"Xihe, Auntie's outfit looks pretty good, doesn't it?"

Zhang Zhiyue walked up to Cheng Xihe and showed him the ruby ​​necklace around her neck: "Your father bought this."

"good."

Cheng Xihe replied with two words, showing no displeasure at her boasting.

Feeling bored, Zhang Zhiyue turned around.

"Zhiyue, hurry up and urge Susu and Yebai. It's been so long. Xihe has already finished, but you two are still not done."

To prevent several people from fighting in one studio, Qin Jian specifically found them two studios.

Fortunately, this floor is full of these studios, and they're not far apart, otherwise it would be even more troublesome.

Zhang Zhiyue clutched her handbag: "Oh, I know, I'll go and urge them right now."

You know, Susu loves dressing up, so it's normal for her to take her time. Ye Bai is already changed and is playing games.

"In that case, we'll get out and wait for you in the car." Qin Jian checked the time, got up, and prepared to leave.

Cheng Xihe snorted lightly, "It's inconvenient. Let's leave together after you're done."

There's water and food here; it's much more convenient to go to the car than to do that here.

Qin Jian thought for a moment and said, "That's right, you guys should hurry up."

"it is good."

Zhang Zhiyue quickly left the studio.

Back there, Zhang Zhiyue urged:

"Susu, are you feeling better? Everyone is feeling better now. If this continues, your dad won't be able to wait for you any longer."

They arrived two hours earlier than Cheng Xihe, and the three of them did their makeup and styling together, but Qin Ruosu was still not finished.

Qin Ruosu, who was playing on her phone in her room, glanced at the time: "Mom, is there still time?"

"Smack!"

Zhang Zhiyue suddenly pushed open Qin Ruosu's room door: "You're all done with your makeup, why aren't you leaving yet?"

She knew Qin Ruosu's nature and deliberately dragged things out.

"What's wrong with them waiting a bit? It won't take much more time," Qin Ruosu said nonchalantly.

Zhang Zhiyue said helplessly, "I can wait, your father can wait, even your brother can wait, but do you dare to make Cheng Xihe wait for you?"

"What? That great demon is here too?" Upon hearing this, Qin Yebai's hand holding the phone trembled uncontrollably.

Zhang Zhiyue said, "If we don't hurry, they'll get impatient, and things might get complicated."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Qin Yebai stood up and saw Zhang Zhiyue standing at the door of Qin Ruosu's room, so he quickly walked over.

Glancing at the composed Qin Ruosu, Qin Yebai said, "What are you doing hiding here? If the Great Demon finds out, he'll beat you up, but he probably won't beat me up, right?"

As soon as the bad idea came to him, Qin Yebai couldn't help but laugh excitedly.

"I'm going to tell her!"

"Hello!"

Qin Ruosu panicked and quickly stood up.

Unfortunately, Qin Yebai didn't hear her shout at all and ran outside.

"Splash!"

Pushing open the studio door, Qin Yebai ran to Qin Jian's side: "Dad, we're all done, but Big Sister's been playing on her phone in the dressing room for ages..."

"Qin Yebai!"

Qin Ruosu, who had rushed over, shouted loudly, interrupting him.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Qin Ruosu quickly changed her words and said, "Ye Bai, you're running too fast, slow down."

Her gentle demeanor was a far cry from how she had almost yelled angrily for missing the race.

Cheng Xihe raised an eyebrow, watching the show.

"Dad, what I said is true..." Qin Yebai said stubbornly, really wanting to see Qin Ruosu get beaten.

His eyes, however, glanced undisguisedly at Cheng Xihe.

"Ding-dong!"

Zhang Zhiyue pushed the door open and came in: "Alright, let's hurry up and go, the party is about to start."

Qin Yebai pouted after being interrupted and didn't say anything more.

Qin Jian said coldly, "Your family brought a car. I'll sit with your mother, and the three of you can sit together."

"don't want!"

Qin Yebai retorted loudly, his eyes filled with panic: "I, I don't want to sit with the Great Demon... Second Sister."

Qin Yebai almost blurted out something suicidal, but quickly corrected himself.

Cheng Xihe raised an eyebrow: "Don't want to sit with me, huh?"

"What do you mean, 'whether you want to or not'? You have to go with your two older sisters..."

"No, no!"

Qin Yebai started making a fuss: "Dad, I want to sit with you, I won't sit with them."

"No……"

Qin Jian was about to refuse when Zhang Zhiyue grabbed his arm: "Ye Bai, sit with us."

She was also afraid that Qin Yebai would anger Cheng Xihe again, and if he got beaten up, he wouldn't be able to enter the party normally.

She winked at him, and Zhang Zhiyue nodded.

After a long silence, Qin Jian said helplessly, "Get in the car."

"Yay!"

Qin Yebai immediately stopped having a headache, turned around and got into the car.

After glancing at Cheng Xihe and Qin Ruosu, Qin Jian said coldly, "Stop making a scene, Xiao Zhang, drive faster and follow us."

"Okay, boss."

The car door closed, and the car sped towards the venue of the party...
