The white gown accentuated her slender and graceful figure, her hair as black as seaweed spread over her shoulders.
With light makeup on her exquisite face, she appeared pure and charming.
Qi Feifei looked at the beauty in front of her and said, smiling, "Dear sister, you look stunning dressed like this. You should seize this opportunity."
Qi Chuchu gently chuckled and nodded. She had originally planned not to attend this party, but her sister threatened and tempted her.
Just yesterday, her sister, Qi Feifei, had called saying her brother-in-law was going to attend a party.
There would be important figures there, and she wanted Qi Chuchu to tag along, presumably to meet some high-ranking officials.
Usually, only wives accompanied their husbands to such parties. There was no precedent for taking a sister-in-law.
Qi Chuchu obviously refused.
However, Qi Feifei persuaded her, "Chuchu, I'm only looking out for you. You know we both come from a well-off family, but after our family faced some difficulties, many people laughed at us. I am married now and can't help much. I'm hoping you can turn your fate around so those petty people can't make fun of us anymore. So, your sister wants you to attend this party for your future benefit."
Seeing Qi Feifei's insistence, Qi Chuchu complied.
She thought attending a party wouldn't be a big deal. She would make a brief appearance, for her sister's sake, catering to the crowd a bit.
What Qi Chuchu didn’t anticipate was that the party was not something she could just casually deal with.
Because at the party, she encountered him again, the man she considered a demon!
Had she known she would meet that man at the party, she would have never agreed to go.
This was an elite party where all the guests were prominent figures in the city.
Luxury cars filled the area outside the door, and beautiful hostesses in formal attire were stationed outside to welcome the guests.
So when Qi Chuchu and her brother-in-law entered, he was engrossed in socializing with the guests and left Qi Chuchu to her own devices.
Qi Chuchu was more than happy to enjoy the tranquility. The party was filled with delicate pastries and exquisite dishes that she thoroughly enjoyed.
As for her sister's advice about networking with influential figures, Qi Chuchu had no such intention.
So while everyone else at the party was clinking glasses and making merry, Qi Chuchu was tucked away in a deserted corner, relishing the delectable food before her.
One should know that these were dishes made from premium ingredients which ordinary people seldom had the chance to taste.
Just as she was thinking of indulging herself with a few more enticing milky cakes, and thereafter leaving the banquet when it ended,
Suddenly, a stir was heard. Someone shouted, "President Bai is here."
Everyone stopped in their tracks, their expressions turning respectful.
In particular, the female guests present lit up at the mention of the name.
Qi Chuchu, observing the reaction of those around her, slightly furrowed her eyebrows, "President Bai? Which big shot has arrived that uses such a big scene?"
The people present were prominent figures from the eastern city who usually maintained a proud demeanor. Who was so influential that managed to exert such respect from them?
Qi Chuchu followed the gaze of the crowd, only to see a group of bodyguards in sleek black suits and black sunglasses escorting a man into the banquet.
Even though there was a large group of people, all eyes were drawn to the tall man in the middle who was the center of attention.
