"Who is your friend? Maybe I can help you find her." Shang Dongyuan glanced at the people mingling at the ball and said.
The waiter saw that Shang Dongyuan had spoken personally, so he didn’t linger any longer and returned to his duties.
Being observant was a basic skill for people like them.
Chu Xiaoge looked at Shang Dongyuan suspiciously before saying, "Murong Jialan and Ran Xiangsi. They’re both here."
With that, Shang Dongyuan knew who she was looking for.
Ran Xiangsi, Xing Chen’s date.
Murong Jialan, the only daughter of the Murong Family, spoiled beyond measure since childhood.
These three, actually friends?
Shang Dongyuan hadn’t expected that a wealthy lady like Murong Jialan would be friends with a girl who didn’t seem very rich.
But even though he thought about it, he was still willing to help.
He signaled for a waiter carrying drinks and gave an order, "Take this lady to find Miss Murong."
Having been in the business world for many years, Shang Dongyuan had become quite adept at navigating it. The most update n0vels are published on N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt
Everyone attending this masquerade ball entered with an invitation, so Shang Dongyuan’s people already knew who was who, even if they wore masks, they could easily tell them apart.
Chu Xiaoge could tell he was genuinely helping her and was leading her to find Alan...
Feeling full of gratitude, Chu Xiaoge daringly asked, "Thank you for your help, sir. May I know your name?"
Consider it an act of gratitude.
Shang Dongyuan looked back at her, smiled politely, but didn’t answer, then turned and walked away.
It wasn’t until he left that Chu Xiaoge came to her senses.
If only she had dressed up a bit more!
She hadn’t expected to meet such a handsome guy right after entering! Ugh! She was dressed so plainly now, she was regretting it immensely!
The waiter quickly led Chu Xiaoge to Murong Jialan.
As soon as Alan saw Chu Xiaoge, she rushed over and hugged her tightly, "Xiao Ge, I thought you weren’t going to come!"
Chu Xiaoge was startled by Alan’s enthusiasm and quickly asked, "Alan, you recognized me? Is your face blindness cured?"
Who knew Alan would shock her with her response, "Nope. But I saw a fool wearing a T-shirt and jeans, and knew it had to be you!"
To attend the masquerade dressed like that, it could only be Chu Xiaoge.
Chu Xiaoge, "...Scumbag Alan."
If Alan were a guy, she’d definitely be a scumbag!
Murong Jialan didn’t mind at all. They had been close friends for so many years and were used to talking to each other this way.
After teasing each other, Chu Xiaoge looked around and asked, "Where is Xiangsi? Why haven’t I seen her?"
"Her...," Murong Jialan started, then broke into a mysterious smile, "I just saw her dancing with a man wearing a diamond mask! Now, she’s probably on a date with that man... And I even recorded a video! I got here early just to record her grand entrance so you wouldn’t miss it!"
Saying that, she pulled Chu Xiaoge to a corner, and the two opened up the video footage and watched it with great interest.
Meanwhile, in the presidential suite at the top floor, the low moans of a man and the soft whispers of a woman never ceased.
