Shao Beiyuan suddenly laughed, and returned to her gentle appearance just now.

"Miss An, I'm joking with you, why are you still serious? That's right, I have a good impression of Gu Chen, but if you and Gu Chen are really together, I won't interfere in the relationship between you. ”

Shao Beiyuan paused, seeing that An Xiaoran didn't say anything, she seemed to be waiting for her to continue, and continued: "Tomorrow, my brother is going to hold a banquet and invite Gu Chen to participate, I didn't know that Miss An was also there, so I didn't prepare an invitation for you, I happened to be here today, why don't you invite Miss An and enjoy the light to participate?"

After speaking, he took out an invitation card from his bag and handed it to An Xiaoran with both hands.

Just now she said that she was Gu Chen's girlfriend, and threatened her with the posture of a genuine girlfriend, but now, she said that she just had a good impression of Gu Chen, and gave her an invitation, obviously, she wanted to use this dinner to embarrass An Xiaoran.

Attending the banquet of the Shao family, they must all be dignitaries, either from the upper class or from a merchant family. On such a staggered occasion, An Xiaoran, an unknown person, will definitely become the focus of everyone's mouth. What's more, she didn't prepare a dress, and after coming out of the presidential palace, An Xiaoran didn't have any chance to attend the banquet. A woman who does not prepare a dress is bound to be reduced to a laughing stock at a high-end banquet.

Private custom dresses should be booked at least two days in advance, and if you buy the kind at the mall, it will definitely look out of place. Fortunately, An Xiaoran had participated in this kind of banquet many times and was very familiar with the process, otherwise, she would not have heard the provocation in Shao Beiyuan's tone and her deep plan.

"I ......"

Before An Xiaoran's refusal could be spoken, Shao Beiyuan preemptively said: "Why, don't you give me so much face when we meet for the first time?" Miss An, I like your personality, and I think we should be able to talk to you at first sight. Gu Chen also promised me that I would attend the banquet, and when the time comes, you can come together. ”

After speaking, Shao Beiyuan directly put the invitation in An Xiaoran's hand, it was so gracious, it was really difficult, even if she knew that it was a difficult night waiting for her, she had to obey.

"In this way, I would like to thank Miss Shao for her kind invitation, you can rest assured, I will definitely go. ”

Shao Beiyuan sneered in her heart, thinking that An Xiaoran was tricked, and tomorrow, she will be good-looking.

After Shao Beiyuan left, Steward Zhou said worriedly: "Miss An, you really shouldn't have agreed to her to go to that kind of banquet, what she said is not true, although the young master does not reject Miss Shao, but it is definitely not a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship with her." She only looked at the face of Miss Shao's brother Shao Nancheng, so she didn't refuse sternly. But Miss Shao didn't think there was anything wrong with her doing this, which made the young master feel very troubled. Your words have already angered Miss Shao, and judging by her appearance, she will definitely not let you go easily at tomorrow's banquet. ”

An Xiaoran smiled, "It doesn't matter, I don't care what she thinks of me, and I don't care what others think of me." Since she invited me here, how could I still have a reason to refuse? Wouldn't that seem like I'm petty? ”

"But ......"

"I know you're worried about me, but there will be many occasions like this in the future, so you can't avoid it every time, you have to meet every time. ”

An Xiaoran said this, and Steward Zhou couldn't persuade him more. She clenched her fists, nodded with a smile on her face, and asked An Xiaoran again what she wanted for lunch.

Disturbed by Shao Beiyuan, An Xiaoran felt that her stomach began to throb again, "I'll go upstairs to rest first, Steward Zhou can just prepare some simple ones, it's troublesome." ”

Steward Zhou answered and walked into the kitchen, and the moment she closed the kitchen door, the smile on her face disappeared instantly, and she looked more and more gloomy.

Leaning against the cold door, she faced the ceiling on her back and meditated. originally just wanted An Xiaoran to help her persuade Shao Beiyuan to quit, but she didn't expect that An Xiaoran was going to attend the Shao family's dinner, no, she couldn't let An Xiaoran appear in front of everyone, she had to stop it.

Gu Chen came back very early today, for a whole day, he was a little unsettled, always wondering what the kitten was doing at home, but the monitoring was not arranged in An Xiaoran's room, he could only see Steward Zhou's figure, but he couldn't see An Xiaoran.

After signing the agreement with Lu Xingchuan and perfecting the development plan for the next month, Gu Chen returned to the villa early. An Xiaoran was still asleep, and when he walked in the door, he smelled a strange and familiar fragrance in the air, judging from the bottom notes, it was a very expensive perfume.

Gu Chen frowned and asked Steward Zhou, "Has anyone been here?"

"It's Miss Shao Beiyuan Shao, she said that she had an appointment with the young master, so she wanted to wait for the young master at home. ”

Gu Chen was displeased: "Didn't I say that, when I'm not at home, no one is allowed to come in." ”

This hateful Shao Beiyuan, who was not welcomed in the company, came to his house without arrogance, and became more and more arrogant.

Gu Chen hated being violated in his private space, and he didn't have to think about it to know that the fact that he lived here was revealed to Shao Beiyuan by Du Ziteng.

"It was Miss An who invited him in, and I can't help it. Steward Zhou explained.

"An Xiaoran, did she meet Shao Beiyuan?"

"Yes. But don't worry, young master, Miss An didn't suffer, but that Miss Shao was so angry...... "Steward Zhou paused and said, "I was also very surprised, I didn't expect that Miss An, who looks gentle and obedient, also has such a sharp side." ”

Gu Chen glanced at Steward Zhou and raised his eyebrows, "Oh?"

Steward Zhou immediately lowered his head, "But it's good that Miss An is here, otherwise it would be impossible for me to let Miss Shao leave with my own strength." ”

Steward Zhou's evaluation made Gu Cheng a little surprised, and he couldn't help but think of the way An Xiaoran calmly faced Ouyang Lanlan that day, Ouyang Lanlan was just a small star, and she didn't have a good family background, she only knew how to shout and splash. And Shao Beiyuan is different, she is not an easy character to deal with.

Gu Chen couldn't help but regret that when Shao Beiyuan came, he was probably in a meeting, and he seemed to have missed a very interesting scene.

Steward Zhou thought that saying this would make Gu Chen angry, but she quietly raised her head, only to find that Gu Chen's face saw the corners of her lips inadvertently curled.

Her heart sank for a while, it seemed that the young master was really attracted to An Xiaoran.

An Xiaoran was asleep, and she felt that her whole body fell into a warm embrace. Then a big hot hand touched her stomach, and the faint pain in her appetite suddenly became much more comfortable.

An Xiaoran frowned and woke up from her sleep. A magnetic and gentle voice came from my ear, "Are you feeling better?"

An Xiaoran instantly sobered up, and hurriedly pushed him away, "Gu Chen, what are you doing?"

Gu Chen didn't let go of her, but hugged her tighter and tighter, "It's not the first time I've hugged you to sleep, what are you nervous about?"
