SEVEN YEARS WITHOUT YOU, VOLUME 6 - Season 5 Episode 40

“Who’s Huo Mian?” Huo Mian asked on purpose.

Qin Chu walked up to her and picked her up by the waist…

Huo Mian shrieked in surprise, “What are you doing? Put me down!”

Qin Chu spun her around a few times before finally putting her down…

Then, he pecked her lightly on the lips, “You’re the most beautiful woman tonight.”

“Don’t kid me…” Huo Mian smiled faintly.

“I’m being serious… come on.” Then, Qin Chu held onto Huo Mian’s hand as the pair left the company, side by side.

This was the first time the two of them appeared together, in a high-profile setting, while GK employees were all leaving work.

The good thing was, Qin Chu held onto her hand the whole time. The two of them walked out of the lobby together and got onto his Maybach.

“Oh my god, is the president holding a woman’s hand?”

“Of course she’s a woman, did you think she was a man?”

“She’s so pretty! Is he making his relationship public? I wonder which rich family she’s from.”

“Yeah, the president finally got himself a girlfriend. I’m sad… we don’t have a chance anymore.”

The female employees gossiped amongst themselves as Jiang Linyue walked out of the elevator with a grim expression on her face.

Tonight was the company’s charity auction event; she was invited as well, and she even bought herself a ballgown.

Originally, she wanted to wear the set of jewelry that was worth 5 million yuan so she could attract the president’s attention. However, she was told that the president had taken the set earlier.

Just now, when she saw that woman wearing the jewels… she became depressed.

She was involved with the design of the set of jewels, but in the end, it was given to someone else.

In the past, she used to be the one who wore the company’s newest line of jewelry to showcase the products…

“Director Jiang, should we still go to the charity banquet?” her assistant asked her carefully.

“Of course we are, why wouldn’t we? I contributed a lot of time and energy into the design of those jewels.” Then, Jiang Linyue walked out with an icy expression on her face, got onto her BMW, and drove away.

This was Huo Mian’s first time attending a charity auction dinner, and she wasn’t used to it. A lot of people were there, and most attendees were of the upper-class.

As she looked around in a daze, she saw a familiar face in the crowd. Su Yu was here as well.

“President Qin’s here,” someone from the crowd suddenly said.

People’s gaze immediately shot towards them. Qin Chu was wearing a custom-made black suit, and Huo Mian was standing beside him, her arm linked with his. The two slowly walked in as everyone stared at them.

Su Yu’s expression became complicated and ineffable…

“Oh hey, isn’t that Huo Mian? Wow, she’s pretty tonight, I almost got blinded by her incomparable beauty,” Wei Liao laughed and said as he picked up a glass of wine.

Su Yu didn’t say anything, but his gaze never once left Huo Mian.

“President Qin, please sit up here.” The hotel representative carefully guided Qin Chu and Huo Mian to their seats.

They sat down at the most eye-catching table in the first row.

The air conditioner in the ballroom was on high, so Qin Chu took off his suit and placed it on Huo Mian’s shoulders…

This small gesture caused quite a stir amongst people in the room…

“Is that President Qin’s girlfriend? Why hasn’t there been reports about her?”

“Yeah, I thought that the president just came back to the country. Is that his date for tonight? Or just a female employee at GK?”

“I don’t think she’s an employee, they look like they’re dating.”

Many socialites discussed amongst themselves. They had all originally wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to Qin Chu but were met with disappointment.

Qin Chu had brought along a date, and he was treating her like a queen.

“Tsk tsk… look at that, look at that, look at how attentive he is. She didn’t even have to say that she was cold for him to give her his suit jacket. I can see that Qin Chu loves her very much,” Wei Liao exclaimed.

“Why is it that every time you speak, I want to throw the f*ck up?” Su Yu said with a grim expression on his face.
