The lights in the hall dimmed, as everyone's attention moved to the stage, where a video was playing on the large screen to reminisce the achievements of the Gu Corporations.
Xu Nuan was sitting at a table with Grandfather and Grandmother Gu, Lin Ran, Gu Zhang, and Xingren. Yuhan's family was sitting at the table behind them.Ā
As everyone was watching the video, Xu Nuan felt someone placing a hand on her shoulder which startled her. She almost squealed aloud but covered her mouth when she saw the man's face who was wearing a formal suit, covering his belly pouch with its layers. He smirked at her with a greasy smile and took a seat on the empty chair beside her.
" Are you not cold? You're wearing such a revealing dress." He said while looking at her legs that were revealed because of the side-slit on the dresses. She had her legs crossed on one other which surprised him that she was wearing clothes opposite to what he had imagined.Ā
