Chapter 1448: Chapter 1448: Accidentally Bumped Into
********
The luxurious living room shone with golden splendor.
The banquet scene was already set up, with a long, red carpet stretching from the living room to the entrance.
Two rows of reception servants stood at the door.
They were uniformly dressed, respectfully greeting each arriving guest.
Jian Yufei had changed into a white strap dress, complented by a shiny silver soft shawl, her hair updo, and light makeup, with no intention of dressing up elaborately.
Next door, in another house.
Mo Lan was also changing clothes.
She chose a sleeveless, pale gold short dress that only revealed her slender, snow-white arms and legs.
She wore matching gloves up to her elbows and applied a glamorous makeup, and then she opened the door to leave.
Standing at the door, Qi Ruigang’s eyes lit up imdiately when he saw her coming out.
Mo Lan, with her outstanding facial features, looked beautiful and charming even without dressing up.
Tonight, she dressed up carefully and looked even more spectacular.
“Lanlan, you look beautiful today,” Qi Ruigang stepped forward, wrapped his arms around her, and gave her a shallow kiss.
He had promised to treat her well the day before, and since then, he had been playing the role of a tender and passionate husband.
His hypocrisy was nauseating to Mo Lan.
But at least this way, it made it easier for her to act.
“Let’s go, it’s about ti,” she said with a light smile, her gaze subtly sweeping over the watch on his wrist.
Qi Ruigang put his arm around her shoulder and smiled warmly: “Let’s go, my beautiful princess.”
Mo Lan blushed shyly, and in Qi Ruigang’s eyes, she looked even more enchanting and charming.
Qi Ruigang’s eyes deepened with understanding, and the way he looked at her was much more intense than before.
…
When they arrived at the banquet scene, Jian Yufei and Qi Ruisen were already there.
Jian Yufei was arm-in-arm with Qi Ruisen, holding a glass of wine and socializing with so guests.
Qi Ruigang, bringing Mo Lan over, asked with a smile, “What are you talking about that’s making you so happy?”
The guest chatting with Jian Yufei and the others quipped, “I was asking the wife of Qi third young master about the cut on her lips. She said she accidentally bumped it.”
Qi Ruigang’s eyes glead with hidden aning as he glanced at Jian Yufei’s lips and his mouth curved into a smirk-like smile.
“I guess my third brother must have accidentally bumped into her.”
“Haha, Qi eldest young master guessed the sa? Actually, I guessed that too.”
Faced with their jokes, Jian Yufei felt sowhat uncomfortable.
Qi Ruisen maintained a calm expression: “Excuse us for a mont, we’ll go greet the other guests.”
He led Jian Yufei away, and Qi Ruigang watched their backs with a cold, sinister look in his eyes.
Walking a distance away, Jian Yufei whispered, “What do we do? If we can’t get the chip tonight, there won’t be any more chances.”
They had to leave early the next morning.
To co back, they would need to find a new excuse.
Qi Ruisen said indifferently, “Don’t worry, I’ve arranged for soone to search.”
Jian Yufei looked at him in surprise, her voice even lower, “What if we get caught?”
“We can’t worry about that now. If we can’t find it, I’ll think of another way.”
“I wonder if Mo Lan has found anything.”
Qi Ruisen glanced subtly at Mo Lan, looking beautiful dressed up for today.
There had been banquets like this before, but she had never dressed up like this.
Today was an exception—
