Qin Baizhou's eyes narrowed slightly, he was indeed a bit surprised, and it wasn't just him. All the guests, staff, and journalists present were shocked.
After all, previously it took no more than a glance, given everyone there was experienced in such events. If Xia Siyu had not accepted, wouldn't it have been embarrassing? Moreover, it would have caused a delay and could spoil the entire show, a major stage mishap that no one would want to be accountable for.
But this male model didn't care about that at all, not even fearing that his gesture might upset Xia Siyu, drag down the whole show, and result in him losing his job and being blacklisted in the modeling industry. Although he kept wearing a mask, one could sense his confidence from the slight uptilt of his chin.
Then.
In the astonished gazes of everyone, Xia Siyu actually stood up, straightened her clothes a bit, then stepped onto the stage in her high heels, extending her hand into his palm!
The whole place was astir!
