PART 09 The Chamber of Commerce Makes a Dazzling Appearance Overnight

Alright, please do not make any sudden movements later

"Mi, I wish time could stand still at this moment, with no one else knowing your goodness." His eyes grew increasingly dark and bright, and after gazing at me for a moment, he slowly lowered his head and kissed my hair, his movements graceful

I look at the cake in my hand, filled with regret, thinking I should have taken a few more pieces, leaving him no room for contemplation

"Mi, there is no need to pay attention to him!" Xiao pulled my hand firmly.

Xiao Bie reached out to support me: "Mi | Mi, in this manner, you do have a semblance of a lady."

The car stopped at the sign outside the villa. I wanted to wake up the person in my arms, and as I lowered my head, I encountered a pair of dark, misty eyes, still glistening with moisture. Noticing me looking down at him, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, presenting an exceptionally obedient appearance.

In response to his provocation, I could no longer contain myself, coming to a halt; the beads in my hair jumped due to my sudden stop

The car was driving a bit fast, and the road was slightly bumpy. He frowned, looking quite uncomfortable. I was captivated by his obedient little appearance and reached out my arm to simply embrace him completely.

Xiao Bie felt a twitch at the corners of his eyes and mouth

He was taken aback by my roar, his lips twitching slightly, and he elegantly retrieved a diamond cufflink from his sleeve: "Turn around, I will help you adjust your gown"

At that time, he sent me flowers and swore that he would only love me in this lifetime. I have seen many women, but there are really not many like you who are so fickle!" He shot me a cold glare, and seemed dissatisfied with his sudden anger, stiffly turning around and walking away

Sigh? I pouted and glared at him

He smiled gently and said, "Although it cannot be considered outstanding, it is certainly better than that famous scissors by some margin." I looked at him, our gazes met in mid-air, his eyes paused for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth curved slightly, "Mi | Mi, trust me."

It is truly baffling! I cast him a glance, hoping he would retract his piercing gaze, but to my surprise, the anger in his eyes only intensified.

I was filled with rage and embarrassment, pushed him away, opened the car door, and was about to jump out.

I chuckled awkwardly and said, "Then I won't disturb you." I certainly do not wish to continue bickering with him like two kindergarten children.

No way, I heard she is pursuing Young Master Shang Er. Look, she is not wearing a dark-colored dress today, but rather a white one, which is clearly aligned with Young Master Er's faction

I feel it is necessary to explain the ambiguous postures between us. As I opened my mouth, the saliva that was swirling in my mouth due to extreme nervousness immediately dripped out, landing on Xiao Bie's face

It seems that this is not the time to complain about my inability to keep up with the trends

I pushed him around and said: "Xiao Bie, go play by yourself." Suddenly, I really wanted to stay in the corner and eat something, rather than standing here like a plastic flower, being judged by others.

He looked at me with a complex expression, as if he had been struck: "Xiao Mi, what's wrong? Didn't you say before that rabbits don't eat the grass by their burrows? Why are you now so concerned about Steward Xiao?"

"Cut it out, I've gone to great lengths to avoid you, yet you still managed to find me." Leaning lazily against the balcony railing was the drowsy Gu Xiaoshao, looking weary. Upon seeing me enter with a porcelain plate, his eyes seemed to brighten slightly.

I stood up and walked towards the nearby French dressing mirror, where brass roses twisted and spread across the entire large oval frame. In the mirror, my hair was styled into a small bun secured at my left ear with amethyst. Sparkling, translucent teardrop-shaped crystals intertwined with my thick black hair, complementing the simple knee-length white cocktail dress I wore, exuding an indescribable freshness

He smiled faintly with a hint of fatigue: "Yes, there are many things that are hard to understand, and choices that cannot be made." He gently rubbed his temples with his hand, and his long eyelashes fell down.

This is not a fact! I looked at him with a gaze of shame and anger, shaking my head like a rattle.

The renowned hairdresser from Paris looked anxiously at Madame Xiao, who smiled slightly and nodded at him, saying, "Please help me with this." The hairdresser felt a sense of relief. Madame Xiao led the hairdresser to the adjacent room, as she was certainly very pleased to see Xiao Bie and me alone together

As soon as I lifted the curtain, I immediately regretted it

I heard that she went to the private hospital of the Xiao family to undergo liposuction in order to pursue Gu Xiaoshao

Xiao Bie tightened the hand he placed on my waist for a moment, then relaxed it again. I turned to glance at him; he still wore an expression of calm indifference, with a faint smile lingering lightly at the corners of his lips.

How frivolous! At some point, a bright red sports car pulled up beside me, its top down. I saw Gu Xiaoshao, dressed in a dark blue suit, leaning over the steering wheel, his gaze ominously directed at me, his face filled with anger

"Mi | Mi, let's go in." Xiao's lips twitched slightly as he wrapped his arm around my waist and spun me around, turning his back to the second young master of the merchant, and walked towards the main hall

I thought about it and expressed my gratitude to him, but I felt somewhat awkward

In fact, his hand did not exert much force, but the intense sense of shame made me very angry. It is likely that the impression given by the previous Xiao Mi Mi was too preconceived, allowing anyone to casually take liberties.

He approached with a smile that did not reach his eyes, suddenly pinching my face with his fingers: "Xiao Mi, has your face also undergone hyaluronic acid treatment? Why do you look so unappealing while smiling at me?"

"Xiao Bie, do you know what faction the dark-colored little dress belongs to?" Once you enter the wealthy circle, it is as deep as the sea; wearing the wrong clothes can be fatal

He did not say anything further, but the few people standing nearby were taken aback. Immediately, someone approached with a nod and a bow, presenting the camera: "Gu Shao, I thought it was someone else, my apologies, my apologies!"

Xiao Mi | Mi, are you trying to undermine my self-esteem?" He glared angrily

I blushed as I looked at him, and many people turned to look. He was undoubtedly signaling that there was more than just ambiguity between us

I turned around as instructed, his fingertips warm against my back. I twisted my body slightly and smiled with a hint of distress.

I angrily picked up another piece and stuffed it into my mouth, chewing with determination

His aura is clearly a hundred times stronger than mine: "A woman as ugly as you can reject me, isn't that a great humiliation for me?"

I am at a loss for words regarding his narcissism; however, I cannot help but wonder if I am being overly sensitive. Among the young people present, it seems that nine out of ten young ladies are dressed in white dresses, beautiful and pure, with various styles represented. When I stand among them, I feel like a withered little daisy.

I glanced at the smug Young Master Shang Er and said, "Second Brother, you have dust on your back."

He pondered for a moment and replied: "It is a chameleon, the best at hiding itself"

Indeed, my gossiping enthusiasm is also boiling over, and I couldn't help but stop in my tracks, politely joining them: "May I ask, which faction does the dark-colored little dress belong to?"

He let out a cold snort, his crystal-clear eyes glanced at me, and he sneered: "But Xiao Mi Mi, I almost forgot, you are the best at acting. Are you trying to gain my sympathy like this now?"

"Alright, alright." He extended his hand and very frivolously pinched my chin, saying, "I am honored to please your sight"

With every step I take, it feels as though I am treading on thin ice; the piercing gazes and whispered conversations directed at me evoke a strong desire to flee swiftly.

I shook off his hand, turned around, and charged towards Gu Xiaoshao with great momentum. If the old cat does not show its power, he will think I am a sick tiger

I roared while pulling at my bra: "This is a weapon, didn't you see that I just defended myself?"

Xiao Bie sat calmly across from me, his gaze not fixed on the financial magazine in his hands, but rather on the rise and fall of the scissors. After a long while, he slowly set the magazine down and walked over: "Let me give it a try!" His voice was gentle and refined, yet his actions with the scissors were anything but polite, as he pushed them away from me.

"Mi, remember to be good." He gently patted my face and left with a look of concern.

The journalist appeared extremely grateful and left immediately

I extended my fingers to caress my face, still feeling a burning heat all over. My heart involuntarily sank; I knew he was a man-eating flower, yet my heart inevitably experienced a slight fall. This is certainly not a good thing. I closed my eyes to calm my emotions, analyzing from all angles the sudden flutter in my heart, reassuring myself that it was merely a result of my own nervousness.

He immediately frowned, handed the champagne in his hand to the attendant, twisted his body to look at his back, and after a long while, asked me in confusion: "Where is it?" I squatted down, rubbed my hand on the ground, then stood up and wiped my hand on his back, smiling as I pointed it out to him: "Second Brother, it's here. I was afraid you couldn't see it, so I made it obvious for you!"

The last declaration was made to Xiao Bie, where he assured her that he would no longer lay a hand on her. I remember he left in a fit of anger at that time. This time, the declaration was directed at Gu Xiaoshao, and his expression was nothing short of strange. I did not see any sign of him relaxing; instead, he glared at me with an even more furious gaze

I discern: "This is a declaration, devoid of any emotion or color"

I took a piece of cake and took a bite, watching him close his phone and walk over: "Mi | Mi, there is a situation at the hospital that requires my return. You should find the lady and stay with her as soon as possible, and I will hurry back." He was quite uneasy about leaving me alone.

I felt quite frustrated to be categorized under the faction of the Second Young Master of Commerce. With my head hanging low, I took two brightly colored drinks from the servant and downed them in one gulp, but Xiao Bie came over to stop me, saying: "Wait, wait, this drink has a kick to it"

He smiled, reached out to smooth my hair by my ear, and said: "Because Mi Mi is dressed beautifully in white, our Xiao family does not need to be subordinate to any other family, for the Xiao family is the leader among all the conglomerates. They should dress according to your colors. Mi Mi, do not mind these messy things."

He glanced at me and bowed slightly, saying, "Madam, I will go prepare!" His voice remained calm and unperturbed, and the faint blush on his face had completely faded.

His lips curled slightly, and a warm kiss fell gently on my forehead. This was our first time being so close; I blushed and grasped his hand. He looked at me with a smile, as if countless specks of starlight were rippling in his eyes: "Mi | Mi ..." He called me softly, like a murmur from the sweetest dream. Then, he slowly lowered his face, this time aiming for my lips. I was both startled and at a loss, staring wide-eyed as his face drew nearer. "Mi | Mi, are you ready? The car is waiting outside." Before Xiao's mother arrived, her voice came first, startling both Xiao and me to step back simultaneously, anxiously looking up at the ceiling.

Xiao Mi | How did Mi lose weight

His fingers slowly caressed the strand of hair he had lifted, his eyes cast down, with a look of confusion and disappointment. As he listened to me speak, his eyelashes fluttered, and when he raised his eyes to look at me again, they were already filled with indifference.

Poor thing, this child has a persecution complex. I sincerely stepped forward, took his hand, and said: "Gu Shao, rest assured, I have no interest in you"

Xiao Mi | Mi? Gu Xiao, after a long time of not turning around, spoke with a somewhat uncertain tone and asked in a lowered voice: "Are you crying?"

Xiao Bietan sighed, just about to speak, when his phone rang. He frowned and stepped aside to answer the call, glancing at me several times in the meantime, his expression growing increasingly serious

Gu Xiaoshao was momentarily stunned, his eyes sweeping over my unusually large chest, and suddenly he broke into a grin, laughing out loud.

I had thought he would refuse, but to my surprise, he simply let out a low "mm" from my shoulder and actually leaned against me, closing his eyes.

I steadied myself, forcibly diverting my gaze from him to look out the window

A few young girls dressed in beige dresses quickly glanced at Xiao Bie behind me, suddenly blushing, and hurriedly left.

What needs to be hidden? What does the Xiao family private hospital need to conceal? I looked up at the somewhat fatigued Xiao Bie and asked, "Did you not sleep well last night?" His fair skin and the slight dark circles under his eyes immediately became very noticeable.

I carefully picked up two pieces of cake and placed them on a porcelain plate, then walked to the balcony of the hall, where the floor-to-ceiling curtains divided the lively hall into two worlds

I was immediately taken aback. ... What is this all about, why must I display such a drooling and grotesque demeanor ... ! ... My radiant beauty, my pristine little dress, I have let you all down!

The Ba Gua Weekly once stated that he had a cleanliness obsession. Indeed, he was so angry that his teeth ground together with a creaking sound. He forced a smile, extended his finger, and tapped my nose, saying: "Mi | Mi, you are being naughty again!"

He was stunned by this sudden turn of events, frozen in place with the rapidly deflating water balloon on his head, staring blankly.

The Chamber of Commerce PARTY is an annual gathering organized among the consortiums, aimed at enhancing popularity and fostering cooperation among them. Typically, the heirs of each consortium participate in this event

He abruptly pulled aside the curtain and coldly asked: "Who just stole the film? It would be best for you to destroy the negatives yourself. If I see them..."

The sleeping Xiao Bie has a face with a warm, jade-like quality, making the entire person appear increasingly tranquil and serene. The gentle, shallow breaths falling on my arm suddenly give me a sense of blissful belonging

He impatiently repeated, "Spit it out! Eating like this looks very bad for the reporters to capture." Suddenly, he stepped forward and blocked me behind him, and I saw a flash from behind the curtain, but the sneaky shot only captured his cold expression.

What a foolish infatuation! I slapped myself. The most terrifying thing in the world is when a little white rabbit falls in love with a big bad wolf. However, perhaps this is the genuine feeling of the true owner of this body, Xiao Mimi, towards Xiao Bie, and I am merely powerless to break free from her intense emotions.

Ha ha ha, I laugh heartily towards the sky

The car turned around several high terraces, and everything became brilliant. I saw the continuous star lights intertwined among the lush green trees, not the kind of ostentatious brightness, but a faint and dense light filtering through the forest, making the entire resort seem as if it were surrounded by stars. ... It is truly magnificent to the point of soaring, luxurious yet understated ...

My shoulders shook even more violently as I gripped the sharp hairpin tightly between my fingertips. With a sudden thrust, I punctured the water balloon, then swiftly turned around and hurled the leaking water balloon onto Gu Xiaoshao's head.

If we were to stop at this moment, then he and I ... ? ... But how could life just come to a halt? I was momentarily taken aback.

He turned his head and looked at me arrogantly: "Xiao Mi, every move you make here is highly likely to become the headline of tomorrow's newspaper. If you do not want to lose face, then speak and act with caution"

"Let's go together!" He suddenly leaned over, wrapping his arm around my waist and applying a bit of force. I immediately flipped over like a turtle turned on its back, my little dress flying up with the sudden movement. I let out a scream and quickly pulled down the hem of my dress, blushing as I glanced towards the car door.

In the hall, everything and everyone appears resplendent under the giant crystal chandelier above, as if enveloped in a thin layer of pearlescent glow, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.

Xiao gently lifted a strand of my long hair, remaining still for a long time. The copper mirror on the wall vaguely reflected his figure, yet it was impossible to discern his expression clearly

Xiao Bie stood not far away, smiling, with a certain degree of indulgence and helplessness.

I lifted the hem of my dress and walked towards Xiao Bie with my head held high, not even considering the Tyrannosaurus behind me that I had already provoked. After taking a few steps, my hand remained in a constant state of lifting the dress.

He clearly does not understand the feeling of being struck by lightning, and smugly smirks: "Today, I am specially allowing you to accompany me for a while, remember, this is a one-time exception!" As he speaks, he reaches over elegantly, picks up a piece, examines it closely, and remarks, "Poor taste, chestnut cake."

Gu Xiaoshao looked at me with anger as he turned around and rushed over. He paused for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth suddenly lifted high, crossing his arms and waiting for me: "Xiao Mi, what do you want to do?"

I glared at him, cautiously stepping inside the villa one step at a time. Xiao Bie kept his hand resting on my waist, and the smile at the corner of his mouth grew ever more gentle

As soon as I got up in the morning, I was taken by Xiao's mother to get my hair done. With my long hair cascading down, I sat upright on the sponge wood sofa, staring wide-eyed as the top stylist from Paris snipped away at my hair, their movements incredibly gentle. After a long time of grooming, there was still no further action, and I couldn't help but wonder if this renowned stylist was famous for their massages.

"It's fine, you go ahead, I will behave myself." I took another bite of the cake.

Gu Xiao Shao let out a cold laugh, suddenly pressed the horn fiercely, and the piercing sound of the horn instantly shattered the silence. Service staff in the villa hurriedly rushed over. He got out of the car, casually tossed the car keys to the service staff, and leisurely followed behind me and Xiao Bie.

He glanced at me with a half-smile, pulled me over, and after turning into a jade-green pine that was as tall as a person, said: "No one uses water balloon-shaped breast pads anymore"

What should I do, my clothes keep slipping down? I complained to Xiao Bie, getting close to him

I felt quite uncomfortable, turned my head to look at him, and asked: "Can you do hairstyles?"

I followed his gaze and simply took out the other breast pad, throwing it at him: "It's all yours!"

"Second brother, you look so handsome today!" I leaned against Xiao Bie and smiled sweetly at him

Gu Xiaoshao's face turned black, then green, then black again, as he tightened his expression and squeezed out a harsh sentence through clenched teeth, "Xiao Mi Mi, you... are very good!"

I turned my face away, and his long fingers wove through my hair with even gentler force. A few strands slipped down, and he used his palm to tuck them back up. When his warm palm glided across my face, I felt a flush on my cheeks

Xiao Bie stepped forward, wearing a serious expression, took my hand, and quickly left

I did not respond to his words, but rushed over to glare at him. Then, I suddenly turned my back, dug out the liquid-filled breast pad, and pulled a sharp hairpin from my head, placing it on top of the water balloon filled with liquid, trembling with excitement.

The previous Xiao Mi once said such words? She is truly too wasteful

His gaze fell on my lips, his eyes darkening as he stepped forward. Suddenly, he pulled me close, lowered his head, and with a flick of his tongue, he swept away the cream from the corner of my lips, consuming it entirely: "Wait for me to return, Mi | Mi!" His voice was utterly enchanting.

"Mi | Mi, it is not the second brother who is handsome, but your young master Xiao. You have nurtured him to be even more dashing." Shang Huaijin smiled meaningfully, his eyes glancing over Xiao Bie before returning to me, "However, Mi | Mi, are you wearing white because you want to match with the second brother?"

I slowly turned around, not daring to make a sound. Of course, I could not make any sudden movements, as the only thing holding the fabric at my chest was a small decorative diamond cufflink

"Mi | Mi, how come you just arrived?" Today, Young Master Shang Er is dressed in a pure white suit, making him appear even more refined. However, I am aware of his sharp tongue, which diminishes his ink-like elegance by half.

So it is this complicated. "Then why did you prepare a white dress for me?" I lamented

I was infuriated by his remark about ugly women, and couldn't help but blurt out: "Why should I like you? Even if I liked Xiao Bie, I wouldn't like someone like you!" As soon as the words left my mouth, both he and I were stunned in shock.

Gu Xiaoshao weighed the camera in his hand, his gaze turning cold, and then he flung the camera away. It crashed against the wall, shattering instantly, with parts scattering all over the ground: "Go and reimburse the loss of the camera with my assistant"

I thought about it again and again, leaned over, and pressed his head onto my shoulder, mustering the courage to say: "You can take a nap, and I'll wake you when we arrive." I was merely being helpful, absolutely without any other intentions, I reassured myself in my heart

Xiao Bie was taken aback for a moment, then slowly sat up straight, curled his lips, and smiled slightly: "Mi | Mi, do you see me drooling?"

Xiao Bie, why is the symbol a lizard? I am curious

Oh? Isn't it about pursuing the young master of the East

It was only after getting into the car that I realized that Xiao's mother was not in the same vehicle as me; the compartment still had only Xiao Bie accompanying me. He was dressed in a navy blue suit today, with a silver-blue tie, on which coiled a silver lizard. The lizard's eyes were made of two rubies, creating a stark contrast with the refined and handsome Xiao Bie, exuding a peculiar charm. He was dressed in a navy blue suit today, with a silver-blue tie, on which coiled a silver lizard. The lizard's eyes were made of two rubies, creating a stark contrast with the refined and handsome Xiao Bie, exuding a peculiar charm.

I composed myself, and although my face was still burning, I managed to say, "You may go." There was a slight tremor in my voice, and my little heart trembled along with it. After a long while, I reached up to touch my face and suddenly noticed that the corners of my mouth had formed a gentle curve.

Madam Xiao pushed open the door and, with just a glance, noticed the situation. Smiling, she pulled me over, cast a sidelong glance at Xiao Bie, and said: "I didn't know that the little steward was so skilled, dressing up my precious one so exquisitely and adorably!"

He suddenly grabbed my arm and coldly scoffed, "Xiao Mi Mi, stop playing hard to get; I can already see two pieces of cake on the disk."

"Xiao Bie, what is this?" I reached out to touch the lizard on his tie, and he smiled slightly at me, saying: "It is the emblem of the Xiao family private hospital"

I swallowed hard, feeling perplexed by his reaction. Can this be understood as the legendary jealousy? However, didn't Gu Xiaoshao swear that he would rather be a gay man than marry Xiao Nü? I sighed and decided to attribute his recent lapse to a hormonal imbalance in Gu Xiaoshao.

I turned around, forced a smile, and stiffened my body: "Hello, Classmate Gu!"

"Xiao Mi, aren't you going to greet your classmates?" he asked coldly

I had forgotten that he is not going today in the capacity of Xiao Xiaoguan, but rather as the head of the Xiao family private hospital. I heard from Xiao Mimi that Xiao Bie has graduated from medical school and is currently studying at business school. It seems that Xiao Mama intends to hand over the hospital of the Xiao family to him

I heard Gu Xiaoshao's voice coming from behind: "Xiao Mi | Mi, you really are not letting the good water flow to outsiders; your own little housekeeper can handle things just fine. When you have time, I really need to invite you to help me tame my few senior housekeepers."

Alright, take a look!

He frowned, pulled a handkerchief out of his pocket, and raised it: "Spit it out!"

I am certainly well, and I do not need you to remind me repeatedly! I shot him a fierce glare, turned around, and decided to completely ignore this young master who lacks gentlemanly spirit

"No one is hiding water balloons in a corset-style dress either." He smiled even more.

Xiao Bie sat up behind me, extended his hand, and smoothed my skirt repeatedly. A hint of thin anger appeared on his handsome face as he pursed his lips. He exited from the other car door, walked around the vehicle, and gentlemanly assisted me in getting out of the car

I turned my face in confusion and asked him, "Is it beautiful?" For some reason, I suddenly felt a strong desire to receive some words of praise from his lips

Xiao Bie’s eyes flickered, and he shook his head at me, saying: "I only know that the heirs of the Gu family, the Dongfang family, and some vassal families all wear dark-colored formal attire, while the merchants and the emerging Lu family prefer lighter shades.
