"You can go back to work. I'll go find my friend." Gu Ruochu put her bag aside, took out her phone, and walked to the side.
2'She should be here by now.'
2Huo Nanchen furrowed his brows. He was about to say something when he received a call.
2"Ruochu, I have to take this."
2"Go ahead."
2Huo Nanchen had just left when someone approached her.
2"It's you?" Gu Ruochu had only seen Ning Tangxi once at the hospital. However, she still recognized her. She curled her lips and asked, "Why are you here?"
2Ning Tangxi had dressed up meticulously. The designer dress she was wearing was a limited edition, and her long hair matched her mature and charming style.
2She smiled gracefully. "I forgot to tell you. I used to work here. It's the company's banquet today, so I decided to come and take a look."
2Gu Ruochu nodded and glanced at her phone.
2Ning Tangxi narrowed her eyes. "Miss Gu, do you find it boring to talk to me? Are you in a hurry to leave?"
2Gu Ruochu walked to the door of the lounge and touched the doorknob before turning around. "You're a guest. As Mrs. Huo, I should indeed entertain you. However, I have to pick up someone else. If you're bored, you can follow me."
2Gu Ruochu's attitude caused Ning Tangxi's expression to change.
2Ning Tangxi fell silent for a moment before she decided to follow after her.
2"Hello, Madam."
2Gu Ruochu bumped into quite a few employees along the way. Most of them were curious and wanted to get a closer look at the president's wife.
2Ning Tangxi and Gu Ruochu were walking side by side. However, all of the employees' eyes were fixed on Gu Ruochu. They were either amazed or envious.
2"She's beautiful."
2"She's also very gentle."
2However, no one paid attention to Ning Tangxi.
2Gu Ruochu was surprised when she heard the employees use the word gentle to describe her. She thought that it was a little ridiculous. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Ning Tangxi's slightly gloomy expression, and her lips curled into a faint smile.
2When they reached the entrance of the company, Gu Ruochu saw a black luxury car arrive. It was not Yang Xi's car, but rather, it seemed to be Young Master An Shaosi's.
2Under the frequent flashes of the reporters' cameras, An Shaosi was the first to exit the vehicle before he extended his hand towards the passenger inside.
2"Ruochu."
2"Yang Xi, you're here?" Gu Ruochu was surprised. Why was An Shaosi accompanying Yang Xi?
2Yang Xi saw the woman beside Gu Ruochu, and her expression suddenly changed. Ning Tangxi noticed her reaction and remained calm.
2"Ruochu, who is this?"
2"This is Ning Tangxi, the heiress of the fashion tycoon Ning Tangxi's company." Gu Ruochu noticed that Yang Xi and Ning Tangxi's expressions were a little off and wondered if they knew each other.
2"So, it's Lady Ning."
2Yang Xi laughed icily, but she did not cause any trouble. Instead, she turned her gaze towards Gu Ruochu. "Ruochu, let's go in."
2When she passed An Shaosi, Yang Xi threw a malicious gaze at him.
2An Shaosi did not react to her cold and distant attitude. Instead, his gaze towards her was filled with interest and playfulness.
2"All right."
2Almost all the guests had arrived, and the banquet soon began.
2When all the company's high-ranking officials appeared, everyone's gaze naturally focused on her and Huo Nanchen. This was the first time they had seen a lady with such beauty and temperament.
2It was a classic Cinderella fairytale story. Her father was not a wealthy man, to begin with. The fact that Gu Ruochu was able to stand by the president's side meant that she had found her prince charming.
2The higher-ups took turns to speak on the stage. Ning Tangxi waved the red wine in her hand and gracefully walked over to greet Huo Nanchen and Gu Ruochu.
