BXBX NOVEL chapter 1288 - Have Your Back
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
It was the first big party being held by Miss Yan Jiaren after her return to
China. She had invited quite a number of the finest celebrities, heirs, and
heiresses from upper-class society in Jingdu to her party. With the status of
the Jiangs as the third most established noble family, coupled with the prestige
of the Yan family in Jingdu, even if people did not know who Yan Jiaren was,
they would still attend out of respect for the two families
With a crowd like that, the party was bound to be a hit.
This was also the reason why Yun Xi had boldly chosen to use this ball for her
ploy. More important, Yan Jiaren was Jiang Chenghuan’s cousin, so she didn’t
have to worry about being implicated in the process.
Even if someone was offended in the process, it wouldn’t really be her
offending them, it would be Liang Xiuqin. If Yun Yuanfeng did want her to
appease anyone, she could simply tell Jiang Chenghuan about it and let them
stay anxious for a good ten days. The thought of it made her feel rather
satisfied.
But, most important, it hadn’t been long since Yan Jiaren had returned to China
and her private life was pretty low key. No matter how well-informed Liang
Xiugin and Yun Ziling were, it was impossible for them to know so soon that
the boutique where they had stolen the dress had been opened by Yan Jiaren.
Who knows, she might just steal the attention of the crowd gathered here
today to promote her own clothing line.
What’s more, Yun Ziling and Liang Xiugin were the ones who were dying to
come to this party. She was simply pushing the boat along the current. Sure,
they could take advantage of her, but could they afford the price tag that came
with it?
Since she was taking on the job as a waitress at the banquet, Yun Xi and Jiang
Chenghuan agreed to meet beforehand at the hotel.
The banquet was to be held on the first floor, and Mu Feichi and Yun Xi had
agreed he would wait for her in the VIP room on the third floor. She should
look for him there when the party was over. He was afraid that Yan Jiaren
might latch herself onto him if she saw him.
After getting out of the car, Yun Xi couldn’t stop herself from mischievously
knocking on the car window and saying teasingly, “Young Commander, are you
really not coming in to see Miss Yan Jiaren? I hear she’s super-famous and a
talented beauty at that.
Standing by the car door, Yun Xi looked at the man sitting in the back seat with
the window wound down. They were in a remote corner of the hotel
compound, which was also a blind spot. It was not easy to spot who was in the
car, so they both spoke brazenly.
“Isn’t there one standing in front of me right now? Why do I need to go into the
hotel to see another one? Am I supposed to eat from the bowl while having my
eyes on the pot? Are you sure that’s a good look for me, babe?”
“Uh..” He made a solid point and she simply could not refute him.
What she hated most was the type of men who had one foot in two different
boats. Fortunately, Mu Feichi was just the opposite. If he had made up his
mind, he would be dead set on the one and would not change his mind easily.
A dedicated heart was precisely what made a man even more charming and
admirable.
“Okay, go enjoy the show. If anything happens, I will be there to help you.”
“Tm not going to get involved with today’s affairs. Besides, no one will
recognize me in a mask at a masquerade ball, so Im not going to dip my feet
into the muddy waters.
The corner of Mu Feichi’s lips perked up ever so slightly. Then he grabbed her
hand and pulled her close and kissed her hard on her lips. Just do whatever
you want to do and don’t worry. Even if all h*ll breaks loose in there, Tll have
your back!
Tll bet you’re the only person in all of Jingdu who would dare speak like that!
Only the young military commander, Mu Feichi, could be so overbearing and
unreasonable.
As she retracted her hand, she patted Mu Feichi on his head like he was a pet.
“Don’t worry, I won’t dig a pothole for myself to fall into.”
Yun Xi watched Mu Feichi?’s car drive into the underground parking lot before
turning around. Then she entered the hotel and reported herself to the front
desk
Standing by the concierge, Yun Xi saw the hotel manager hurrying to the
elevator after receiving a call. He was likely headed toward the underground
parking lot to greet Mu Feichi at the entrance of the elevator lobby. The sight
seemed rather amusing to her.
Not long after she had arrived, Yumo came walking in.
“Yun Xi! Why did you come so early? Are you really going to be a waitress?
Yun Xi glanced at her wool coat and sweatpants. She certainly did not look like
she was here for a ball.
“Why aren’t you in a dress? Don’t tell me you’ve come to join me as a waitress?
“Mais, oui! How could you not count on me for a good show!”
