Mu Yazhe lifted his arrogant chin slightly and looked at Yun Shishi with a deep and cold gaze.
An inexplicable sense of displeasure grew in his heart.
He lifted his chin, especially when he saw Yun Shishi hiding behind Gu Xingze like a frightened cat. His thin lips curved into a cold smile.
She was so wary of him, yet she was so close to another man. The great President Mu naturally felt uncomfortable. Hence, he looked at her deeply and turned his face away. He turned around and sat down on the sofa leisurely.
The atmosphere was extremely strange.
Xiao Yichen stood at the side, his handsome little face faintly showing a trace of displeasure.
He didn't know why, but when he found out that Yun Shishi was Gu Xingze's female companion, he obviously felt unhappy.
He actually felt that this woman and Daddy looked very compatible when they stood together.
Xiao Yichen was stunned by his own thoughts.
God … Why would he have such a thought? It was too inexplicable.
But this woman was very strange. He felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to her. Why?
The little munchkin was a little confused.
They were indeed father and son. Even their awkwardness was similar.
Mu Wanrou looked around arrogantly. When her gaze landed on Yun Shishi, she suddenly felt a stab in her eyes.
That luxurious gown was so glaring in her eyes.
She then shifted her gaze and elegantly approached Yun Shishi. With a condescending look, she squeezed out a mocking smile from the corner of her lips.
"Ha, Xingze, when did your standards become so low? You actually found such a poor and lowly person to be your female companion?" Mu Wanrou glanced at Yun Shishi with a faint smile. Her eyes were full of contempt, as if she was a high and mighty queen and Yun Shishi was like a lowly female slave.
The two of them had similar figures, but Mu Wanrou was wearing a pair of eight-centimeter high stilettos, which made her taller than Yun Shishi. She raised her chin arrogantly.
Yun Shishi looked at her calmly. She wasn't shocked or angry, but her face was calm without a ripple of emotion.
"This is the work of Master Helen, who won the Fashion Week's Gold Award!" Mu Wanrou raised her chin high. "Who allowed you to wear it?"
Upon hearing this, Alan shrank his shoulders and immediately said respectfully, "Young Madam Mu, I was the one who put it on her …"
"You?" Mu Wanrou looked angry. "Do you know how expensive this dress is? Who allowed you to put it on her? "
"It was me," Gu Xingze said calmly, "I think this dress is very beautiful. It will definitely suit Shishi very well."
Shishi? Why did he call her so intimately?
Mu Yazhe's eyes became colder.
The unhappiness in his heart was getting worse and worse.
Seeing Gu Xingze speak, Mu Wanrou softened her tone. "Xingze, this dress is Master Helen's work. It's very expensive. How could you bear to …"
"She's worth it. Besides, Shishi does look beautiful in it. "Gu Xingze lowered his head to look at her and reached out to tidy Yun Shishi's slightly messy hair.
This seemingly intimate action couldn't help but hurt some people's eyes.
Especially Mu Yazhe, the unhappiness in his eyes became more and more bottomless.
Damn it, he minded.
He actually minded other people touching her. He was such an eyesore …
This feeling was so damn unpleasant.
Mu Wanrou didn't notice Mu Yazhe's unfathomable expression at all. She said, "Xingze, tonight is Huanyu Entertainment's annual cocktail party. There will be many distinguished guests and entertainment media present. Aren't you afraid of being mocked for bringing such an unknown female companion? "
When Qin Zhou heard her say such harsh words, his brows furrowed deeply and he was filled with displeasure.
Alan also said softly, "I think … Miss Yun looks very good in it!"
Mu Wanrou frowned slightly, pursed her red lips, and shot a sharp look at Alan. He was so frightened that he shut his mouth on the spot and didn't dare to say another word.
When Han Yuyan heard this, her heart was filled with anger. She had long disliked this girl who had neither fame nor family background. She detested her to the core. Mu Wanrou's sarcasm seemed to have helped her vent her anger and supported her. She was happy and mocked her. "What Young Madam Mu said makes sense. A poor person will always be a poor person. No matter what she wears, she still looks poor. A sparrow will always be a sparrow. She still wants to fly up and become a phoenix? She's dreaming! "
Mu Wanrou tidied her clothes and elegantly crossed her arms. Han Yuyan's "Young Madam Mu" was very pleasing to her ears.
Han Yuyan's mouth was as sweet as honey. As long as there was a chance for her to climb up the social ladder, she would never let it go.
As she spoke, she held Shao Dong's arm and sneered, her eyes full of disdain. "I say, don't embarrass yourself here. Go back to your slum!"
Qin Zhou raised his eyebrows and sneered. "You said that our Shishi is poor. Heavenly Queen Han, are you from a noble family?"
Han Yuyan was speechless.
Of course she was not!
On the contrary, her family was poor since she was young. Her family of five was squeezed into a small house. She was the one who was born in the slum. It was because she had tasted the taste of poverty since she was young that she developed a vain personality.
When she graduated from junior high school, she entered an art school early and became an art student. She did not have the talent for learning and did not have the conditions to do so. It was only until she auditioned for a movie before she graduated that she was lucky enough to get that role that she successfully made her debut.
In order to make her debut, she did not hesitate to use any means and suffered some hardships.
Now that she was famous, the hardships were over. However, there were still many media outlets that made irresponsible remarks about her being uncultured.
This had always been her sore spot.
Qin Zhou saw her embarrassed expression and sneered. "Our Shishi is still a university student. No matter what, she's still a top student. Moreover, our Shishi is also highly regarded by Director Lin! "
Director Lin?
Han Yuyan's expression changed. "Director Lin? Which Director Lin? "
"Aiya, you're really forgetful. You don't even remember the teacher who made you famous? "Qin Zhou said indifferently.
Lin Fengtian!
How could she forget!
He was one of the most talented directors in the Chinese film industry. The two movies he directed had been the box office champion for three years in a row!
Wasn't he preparing to film a movie based on a famous youth novel? Could it be … that she was the female lead?!
Mu Wanrou's eyes were filled with surprise.
On the sofa, Mu Yazhe's handsome face also showed a hint of surprise.
Han Yuyan suddenly sneered. "How is that possible? Why would Director Lin choose her as the female lead? What right does she have?! "
She was able to get the role of the female lead in "Bamboo Dragonfly" because she hooked up with the biggest investor of the movie. Because of this, Lin Fengtian was very dissatisfied with her and did not treat her well.
What right did Yun Shishi have?
Could it be … that she also used the unspoken rules?
"What right does she have?" When Gu Xingze heard this, he smiled. As if there was no one around, he stretched out his arm and pulled Yun Shishi to his side. His gaze was full of tenderness as he looked at her. "Although some people come from ordinary backgrounds, their aura is elegant and refined. Although Yun Shishi is not famous, she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. "
Mu Wanrou looked at Gu Xingze and suddenly understood. Gu Xingze wanted to use his popularity to get more media exposure for Yun Shishi. He wanted to pave the way for her! It was obvious that Gu Xingze was very satisfied with this female lead that Lin Fengtian had chosen.
Otherwise, given Gu Xingze's proud and aloof character, he would not have used his high popularity to promote her.
This Yun Shishi, what did she do … Why was she always favored by the heavens?!
"I don't care who chose her. She is not welcome here!"
Mu Wanrou's eyes were full of viciousness. Her voice was distorted because of jealousy. "Take it off and get out!" “
When Yun Shishi heard this, her face showed a trace of embarrassment.
How could this woman humiliate her like this? It was too much.
She smiled and asked, "Why should I?"
Would she take it off just because she asked her to?
She, Yun Shishi, was not someone who would be bullied.
Mu Wanrou laughed arrogantly, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world. "You are asking me why?"
When Alan heard this, he couldn't help but remind her, "Miss Yun, I am very sorry. EMPRESS is a business that the Mu Corporation has invested in … "
Yun Shishi's eyes widened in shock.
No wonder Mu Wanrou was so arrogant. She was the female owner of EMPRESS.
Gu Xingze smiled and said, "I will buy this gown."
Mu Wanrou sneered. "Not for sale."
"One hundred million," Gu Xingze said without batting an eyelid.
As soon as he finished speaking, even Qin Zhou, who was standing beside him, was shocked.
Oh my god! Xingze … Was he crazy?!
One hundred million, what kind of concept was that?
Even if he liked Shishi very much, it was only one hundred million for a gown. Was it worth it?!
Yun Shishi was deeply touched.
She knew in her heart that this gown was not worth one hundred million. Gu Xingze was only protecting her.
If she really took off the gown and was chased out, that would be the greatest humiliation to her.
And Gu Xingze was only using one hundred million to protect her dignity.
Was it worth it? Gu Xingze … Why was he so gentle with her? So careful and protective?
"Xingze! Are you crazy? " Han Yuyan could not stand it anymore and said, "This gown is not worth one hundred million."
"I like it," he said calmly and concisely. He did not care about Han Yuyan's unwillingness at all.
"One hundred million, I will buy it," Gu Xingze looked at Mu Wanrou calmly and announced.
"You …" Mu Wanrou was furious and looked at him in disbelief.
Mu Yazhe's cold voice sounded from the side. "Not for sale."
Hearing this, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
He was not selling it even for one hundred million. Why?
Qin Zhou was also angry. "Chairman Mu, one hundred million is a sky-high price!"
Mu Yazhe leaned on the sofa lazily and elegantly. He was as calm as an emperor in ancient times. His domineering aura spread to every corner.
