The Warm Breeze Is Not As Warm As You Chapter 473

473 The Xiao Family in Lin Cheng and the Mo Family in Hai City 2

Two days later, it was Sunday .

Ji Nuan got up early and took a bath to prepare for the birthday party in the evening .

Tonight, she was not only the CEO of MN Group but also the female companion of CEO Xiao of the Ling Xiao Group . Therefore, she chose a red dress that she liked to wear when she was in the UK, put on a proper coat, and went out of the house .

When she arrived at the appointed place, she saw a long limousine parked in the distance . It was obvious that Xiao Luye had been there for a while but had been waiting for her outside .

Ji Nuan walked over and knocked on the window of the car . As the window fell, the man inside cast a sideways glance at her . When he saw her in a red dress and all smiles, he raised his eyebrow . “Miss Ji, I haven't seen you for three years, and you look even more beautiful . ”

Xiao Luye got out of the car . Dressed in a sharp suit, he looked cold and proud as usual . He spotted the coat Ji Nuan wore and said with a smile, “I just invited you to my father's birthday party . Although there will be an air-conditioning, it is still summer and can't be cold . Why do you wear a coat?”

“I chose this coat randomly . The dress shows too much of the shoulder, so it is not suitable for this kind of occasion . With a coat, I look more conservative and dignified lest I'll disgrace you, CEO Xiao . ”

In others' eyes, they were talking and laughing, but only Xiao Luye and Ji Nuan knew that there was no warmth but only suspicion and even hostility in each other's eyes .

Xiao Luye said no more and casually opened the door for Ji Nuan . “Please, Miss Ji . ”

Instead of getting into the car, Ji Nuan glanced into the car and then looked at Xiao Luye in a suit . “I accepted the invitation, because your father, Mr . Xiao is a venerable elder in Hai City, but before I go to the birthday party, I'd like to ask you why you chose me as your female companion?”

Xiao Luye glanced at her again, and she captured the cold gleam in his eyes . “Have you ever wondered why I took you away and then let Mo Jingshen take you back without touching you three years ago?”

Ji Nuan . “No . ”

Xiao Luye: “…”

He laid his hand casually on the door, gently tapped the car door, and glanced at her face . “You're really big-hearted . ”

Ji Nuan chuckled disapprovingly . “Although I did doubt it, why should I let this matter trouble me? There are many psychos and perverts in this world . If I try to understand the behaviors of each lunatic, I'd probably be pretty tired or dead . ”

Xiao Luye smiled coldly . “Then, don't ask me anymore . Get in the car if you have the guts or drive there by yourself if you don't . ”

“I can drive by myself, but I'm afraid CEO Xiao was tortured really bad by Miss s.h.i.+ these years? You look so angry and are no longer as gentlemanly as three years ago . ” Ji Nuan narrowed her eyes with a smile . “What? You're angry that your rabbit doesn't come into your cage tamely?”

As she expected, Xiao Luye gave her a freezingly cold smile . “Little girl, If you weren't somewhat connected with me, you'd be bleeding on the spot . How dare you scorn me? Who gave you this courage? Mo Jingshen? But as far as I know, you two divorced a long time ago, hadn't you?”

Ji Nuan didn't answer him as if not hearing him mention Mo Jingshen . She just glanced at her car, which was parked not far away . “I'll drive myself, so I won't bother Mr . Xiao . I'll be at the birthday party, but I don't want to be your female companion . I don't want to be the female companion of someone who is emitting cold air . I'll probably freeze to death before I get there . I don't even know you . Why should I let myself suffer?”

Xiao Luye frowned and stared at her as she turned away from his car . “Get back . ”

Ji Nuan stopped and turned to look at him . “Can you talk to me with a different att.i.tude, CEO Xiao? Is this how you should treat your female companion?”

Xiao Luye opened the door of the car again . “Get in . ”

Ji Nuan didn't move but looked at him with her head on one side .

“Miss Ji, please get in . ” He coldly glanced at her and added, “please . ”

Tut, it seemed she had to go tonight .

What kind of birthday party was this? Why did she who had nothing to do with the Xiao family, have to go to the birthday party? Even a man like him was willing to compromise?

Ji Nuan turned and walked back, glancing at the man next to her before getting into the car . “Thank you, CEO Xiao . I'll take you up on that, but I want to make it clear that you can call me CEO Ji or Ji Nuan, but don't call me 'little girl . ' We don't know each other . If you call me this, others will doubt our relations.h.i.+p . ”

Hearing her words, Xiao Luye suddenly said meaningfully, “Really? Then you might be startled one day . ”

Ji Nuan had got into the car, and, not quite catching his words, immediately put her head out to look at him again . “Why should I be startled?”

Xiao Luye didn't answer but sneered and slammed the door shut with a thud .

Fortunately, she stepped back fast, or the door would have hit her head .

The Xiao family's birthday party was held on a luxury cruise s.h.i.+p and was of a very high level . Even though Ji Nuan had been attending many events of high society since she was a child, she seldom attended such an extravagant party .

When she got out of the car, she saw the huge cruise s.h.i.+p parked near the coast of Hai City .

Ji Nuan said, “That's pretty awesome . ”

Xiao Luye reached out his arm to her, saying, “Of course, how dare we invite you to an ordinary dinner party?”

Ji Nuan glanced at his arm . “Even being your female companion, I don't have to walk in taking your hand, do I?”

Xiao Luye . “…Didn't you ask me to treat you like a gentleman?”

“You can be a gentleman in att.i.tude, but we'd better keep our distance in our actions . After all, we don't know each other that well . ” With that, Ji Nuan took out her invitation from her bag and went inside herself .

You needed to get into a dedicated car with the invitation and identification card, which would drive you to the dock, and then the car drove straight from the dock into the cruise s.h.i.+p . Ji Nuan was amazed by the size of the cruise s.h.i.+p and a bit shocked by the Xiao family's wealth .

The car reached the parking lot of the cruise s.h.i.+p, and they got off . Although Ji Nuan refused to take Xiao Luye's arm, as his female companion, she should walk close to him . Xiao Luye was one of the hosts tonight, so they needn't show the invitation card, and she followed him straight to the banquet hall .

The grand banquet hall was already crowded with people and quite bustling .

Ji Nuan looked around, and, as she expected, she saw Ji Mengran and Sheng Yihan .
