C13 Beautiful

This was the first time Connie had come to Herolutions.

In Findochty, Herolutions was definitely one of the most iconic buildings. The skyscrapers towered into the clouds, and the golden "YS Yunsheng International" at the entrance symbolized its status.

However, it was even more different when they entered. The unique decor and style fully displayed the unique characteristics of this century-old company.

After boarding the elevator with Holden, Connie curiously looked at one side and then looked at the other side. Along the way, she attracted the attention of many people.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the CEO's office.

After he entered, he took off his coat and walked to the back of the desk. He did not forget to say to Connie: "From now on, find something to kill time."

"Alright, you can do what you need to do. Don't worry about me."

Connie was very straightforward. She started to size up Holden's office.

The space here was wider and more luxurious than he had imagined. The facilities were very complete. Besides office supplies, there was also a bar and a wine cabinet. There was even a lounge inside, making it look like a small apartment.

Rich people were different!

Connie sighed in her heart. However, what she was most interested in was the French window.

The bright light was because it was located on the top floor, so the view was very wide. It was almost enough to overlook half of Findochty.

After looking around, Connie's gaze was attracted by the huge bookcase on the left.

She walked over and found that there were books about business and finance on it. There was also a classic foreign book.

Connie randomly picked one and planned to use it to pass the time.

At this moment, Holden was already preparing to go to the meeting with the documents.

Before he left, he did not forget to warn Connie cautiously, "Stay here and don't take a single step out of this office."

During the time that Holden went to the meeting, Connie was very well-behaved. She found a book to pass the time on the sofa. In the blink of an eye, two or three hours had passed.

In the end, she accidentally fell asleep on the sofa as she looked around.

When he returned from the meeting, he did not see Connie. He looked around.

When he saw the person sleeping soundly on the sofa, he could not help but walk over.

She was sleeping very comfortably. Her sleeping face was innocent and harmless, and she actually looked a little naive.

Although Holden did not want to wake her up immediately, he could not help but push her. "Wake up."

Connie opened her eyes in a daze and sat up from the sofa. When she saw that it was Holden, she quivered and asked, "You are back?"

"Do you sleep wherever you go? Is that your habit?"

Holden stared at her and asked this question.

"Uhh..."

Connie was a little embarrassed. "Actually, it's not like that. I only sleep when I'm too bored."

"Is that so?"

Holden looked at her doubtfully, but he did not dwell on it. He changed the topic and said, "Go wash your face and follow me to a place where you won't fall asleep."

"What do you want?"

Connie asked curiously and quickly stood up from the sofa.

Holden replied, "You'll know once you go."

...

Half an hour later, Holden brought Connie to a club called ' DK Fashion'.

As soon as the two of them entered, Holden said to a woman who had just walked up, "Lisa, help her create a fitting outfit."

"OK, leave it to me."

Lisa nodded and turned around to bring Connie upstairs.

"Wait a minute."

"Mr. Henson, that... What do you want?"

Hearing that, Holden looked at her in disbelief. "Your school is holding a banquet, and all the guests invited today will be attending. I am one of them. As a student of the Institute of Arts, you don't even know this?"

"Ah? Yes, there is indeed such a thing. It's just that..."

Connie came to a sudden realization and looked at Holden in surprise. She said, "...I thought that a busy person like you wouldn't attend."

"Why wouldn't I attend? As a businessman, I have to grasp the opportunity to maximize my profits at all times. Although I don't need to attend a small banquet like yours, I have my own goal. As for you..."

Holden looked at her from head to toe and pursed his lips. "Not only the students, but also my servants. Of course, they have the obligation to follow me."

"..."

Connie was speechless. It took her a while to regain her voice. She said with some resistance, "But... I can't do it."

"Are you going against the order?"

Holden narrowed his eyes, his expression somewhat dangerous.

"No, it's because I've never attended a banquet before. If you bring a person who has never seen the world to such a place, you will only lose face. Mr. Henson, please be careful!"

Connie tried to persuade him not to do anything stupid.

Although it was just a banquet organized by the school, it was not a big deal. There were still many rules.

At the very least, Connie knew that those who were arranged to attend the banquet were all students with good family backgrounds. They were the so-called rich young masters and young ladies of the upper class.

If she did not perform well, it would be a small matter. If she accidentally embarrassed him, it would be a big matter.

"You just need to put on a signature smile and walk with me. You don't need to do anything that will embarrass you."

The meaning of his words was that he had no room to refuse.

The corner of Connie's mouth twitched slightly. She felt that resisting Holden was like throwing an egg against a rock.

In the end, she had no choice but to compromise.

After Connie followed Lisa upstairs, she was quickly drowned out by a fashion stylist, a beauty, and a makeup artist.

She was like a puppet doll throughout the whole process, allowing them to manipulate her as they wished.

After a long time, they had already gone for two hours.

When Connie was about to lose her patience, Lisa finally pushed her to the mirror and said, "Alright."

Honestly speaking, at first glance, Connie almost didn't recognize herself in the mirror.

She was wearing a dark blue gown with a shoulder-length design, a tight waist, and a streamlined skirt. The skirt was made of seven layers of thin gauze, and the top layer was embroidered. Looking at it, it was as if she was wearing a starry sky, dreamlike.

She also had light makeup on her face. After the makeup artist's delicate hands, not only did she not hide her own good points, but she even made her features more exquisite.

"It's perfect. I think Young Master Yun will be very satisfied too."

Lisa looked at Connie with great satisfaction. Her eyes seemed to be admiring a work of art, causing Connie's arms to be covered in goosebumps.

However, what she said was right. The moment Holden saw Connie, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
