Chapter 327: The Cowardly Sister Who Married in Place (11)
Mu Zhou and Mu Zhen have been in the same class since childhood. Even in college, they both chose the Department of Economics and Management, and their friends basically all overlap.
This time, it was a college classmate who sent an invitation to Mu Zhou, inviting him to attend a charity dinner initiated by his mother.
In the past, whenever a mutual friend invited Mu Zhen to attend, the original owner would consciously refuse.
Because Mu Zhen didn't want someone who looked like her to appear at the same time as her, and she didn't want to hear people say things like "you sisters are like this" again.
She wants to be the one and only.
At this time, the classmates were still trying to persuade him.
"Classmate Mu Zhou, many of our old classmates will be here this time. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's just treat it as a class reunion. Are you really not considering coming?"
Perhaps because the original owner always refused in the past, this time after the other party sent the invitation letter, he immediately sent a series of persuasive words.
Mu Zhou looked at the note at the top of the chat interface.
Guo Chengjia?
The image of a sunny, cheerful and refreshing man appeared in my mind.
Mu Zhou smiled and replied amidst the other party's incessant chatter:
[Okay, see you then.]
The other party paused for a long time before saying:
[Okay, see you then.]
Now that I have decided to participate, I can no longer be like before, wishing I could be so low-key that I could be lost in the crowd.
Mu Zhou began to carefully choose a dress.
I just took a look around and felt that they were all pretty average, not amazing, and they were all everyday styles.
But if she wanted to buy a new one, she didn't have the money.
It happened that Su Zhiyan called at this time. After Mu Zhou saw his call, his eyes moved slightly and the corners of his lips curled up.
She picked up the phone, and Su Zhiyan's deep voice came from the other end:
"where?"
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.
Su Zhiyan was considerate for once. Worried that Mu Zhou was hungry, he sent someone to deliver food to him. However, he was told that no one was home anymore.
She just left like that?
Su Zhiyan's face instantly turned dark and he immediately called.
Mu Zhou ignored his emotions and answered honestly:
"I'm at the Su family."
When Su Zhiyan heard her soft, coquettish voice, the uneasy feeling in his heart was relieved a little. He couldn't help but ask again:
"doing what?"
Mu Zhou tugged at his clothes, his tone full of sorrow:
"I was just about to go out and find my sister to ask if she could lend me a dress."
Su Zhiyan frowned and instantly remembered the last time the woman yelled at Mu Zhou in the bar.
Mu Zhou's relationship with her was definitely not good.
And... borrow?
His woman still needs to borrow other people's things?
Then Mu Zhou said again:
"My classmates invited me to a charity dinner. I don't have many clothes for this kind of occasion, but my sister has a lot. Mr. Su, I won't talk to you for now. I need to go find my sister."
Before she could hang up the phone, Su Zhiyan's cold voice came from the other end of the phone:
"Mu Zhou, what do you take me for?"
As a billionaire and a tycoon, his wife, who is legally protected, actually had to borrow a dress.
This is a shame for him.
But Mu Zhou seemed unable to understand his words, and her silent silence reflected her doubts.
Su Zhiyan pinched the bridge of his nose and said helplessly:
"If you need anything, I'll have someone deliver it."
Mu Zhou finally understood and said hurriedly:
"Mr. Su, that's not what I meant. I can't take anything from you anymore. I know you're not happy with this marriage, but it was Grandpa who forced you to agree..."
Su Zhiyan interrupted her:
"Mu Zhou, don't be so clever."
Mu Zhou opened his mouth, but remained silent, not knowing what to say.
After saying this ambiguous sentence, Su Zhiyan hung up the phone.
Soon, a large number of dresses were delivered, all of which were high-end custom made for the season, with all kinds of styles available.
Having achieved his goal, Mu Zhou instantly put Su Zhiyan's words behind him and happily began to choose clothes.
*
The charity dinner was held in the most famous Beijing Mansion in Beijing, and almost half of the city’s celebrities gathered together.
The organizers also invited top stars and celebrities from various circles.
The entire venue was star-studded, with men and women vying for attention.
Mu Zhou didn't arrive early.
Before she appeared, a young man in the banquet hall was holding a wine glass, looking at his watch from time to time, then looking outside, with a look of faint worry on his face.
When he raised his eyes again, his gaze suddenly froze and became dull.
A girl appeared at the door.
The girl was wearing a light blue long dress with a strapless fishtail style that perfectly outlined her slender waist and curves.
The skirt was studded with silver threads and the hem was dotted with sequins, like starlight falling on the sea, swaying gently with her movements.
Her thick long hair is slightly curled and falls obediently on her shoulders. A few pearl hair accessories are faintly visible in her hair. The whole look is not only not messy, but has a unique charm.
And that face is so exquisite that it seems as if it was carefully carved by God, so perfect that it is amazing.
The fair skin, the small and straight nose, the slightly upturned eyebrows, all are so beautiful that they are amazing.
Especially those eyes with a seductive arc, which are delicate and have a subtle charm.
Just like her whole person, she is full of contradictions, pure and beautiful at the same time.
The huge and gorgeous crystal chandelier cast bright lights, which reflected on her body, making her sparkle especially brightly.
It is like a clean and fragile little white flower blooming on the seabed, untainted by dust, yet attracting people to rush to pick it.
For a moment, almost everyone's attention was drawn to it.
To some people she looked familiar, but to others she was a complete stranger.
The boy from before finally woke up from his daze.
He put down his wine glass and walked to Mu Zhou:
"Mu Zhou? You're finally here. I thought you were going to stand me up again."
The boy who was talking was Guo Chengjia, who sent the invitation to Mu Zhou. His mother was the initiator of this charity dinner.
When Mu Zhou saw him, he lowered his eyes and smiled slightly.
Her long eyelashes trembled like wings, causing Guo Chengjia to almost become fascinated.
He said sincerely:
"You look great today."
Mu Zhou looked at him in surprise, and saw that his face instantly turned red, and he hurriedly explained:
"I'm not saying you weren't pretty before. What I mean is that you look especially pretty today, because before, you always hid from everyone. So, you look good this way..."
Under Mu Zhou's gaze, Guo Chengjia became more and more incoherent.
Mu Zhou understood what he meant, so he smiled:
"I know, thank you."
Guo Chengjia scratched his head:
"Can I take you to say hello to my mom?"
It was normal to greet the initiator, so Mu Zhou did not refuse.
In another corner, Mu Zhen had already clenched his wine glass.
As soon as Mu Zhou appeared, when many people had not yet associated her with Mu Zhou, Mu Zhen recognized her good sister at a glance.
Why did she come to the dinner?
In the past, she herself was also very resistant to such occasions, so why did she suddenly become so high-profile?
