Lu Xinyi looked around the ballroom with awe. Compared to the last gala she and her husband attended during his last business trip, this charity gala was way grander than the former. Beautiful women in nice and elegant dresses welcomed them, their necks and ears adorned with expensive jewelries than could be worth a hundred thousands or millions. The men were looking so devastatingly handsome in their immaculate dark suits.
If she would be honest to herself, Lu Xinyi felt like she didn't belong here. This wasn't her world, and she felt like a Cinderella forced to attend the ball—but not to meet the prince, but to fight for him. She held Shen Yi's arm tighter while trying to think of anything that could ruin her focus.
"Xinyi! Here." A familiar voice called out her name across the room. She turned back and saw that Xiao Lan just came in with her husband.
