C280 The Ball Started
Lu Xiaoxi looked at the road up the mountain and nodded in agreement.
After following Fu Ningxuan into the house, Lu Xiaoxi still stood at the door very cautiously and did not enter. She just waited for his so-called assistant to bring her clothes.
Not long after, the sound of a car horn came from outside. Fu Ningxuan went out and took the clothes to pass to her, then closed the door like a gentleman.
Fu Ningxuan looked up at his assistant, Yao Jin, who was waiting outside the door to gossip and asked, "Has the dance started?"
Yao Jin's eyes looked at the tightly closed door and asked, "Who is inside?"
Fu Ningxuan could not help but frown at his gossipy heart. He coldly added, "Does it have anything to do with you?"
"No, Ningxuan. Do you know that you are the focus of all media? It would not be good if you exposed your relationship earlier than Xue Jing." Yao Jin felt helpless about his indifferent attitude and could not help but criticize him.
Fu Ningxuan sneered, "She is now climbing the big tree and has forgotten about me."
Yao Jin was speechless. Indeed, it was Xue Jing who attended the ball with Fu Ningxuan today, but this woman thought highly of herself and actually turned around to follow Chu Zimo. It was very awkward.
At this moment, the door behind Fu Ningxuan was knocked from behind. Fu Ningxuan turned around and looked inside. He saw that Lu Xiaoxi was still wearing the same clothes and did not change. He was stunned and asked, "What is it?"
"This dress... It's not suitable for me to wear." Lu Xiaoxi looked at the long dress over there and stammered.
Fu Ningxuan understood what she meant. Looking at the gown on the bed, he thought that Yao Jin probably thought that he was going to bring a female companion, so he brought this dress.
Thinking about this, he subconsciously looked at the watch on his wrist. He did not have time to run back and forth again. He could only helplessly say, "Sorry, I have an urgent matter. You can wear this one for now."
Lu Xiaoxi touched her head and could only nod stiffly.
After closing the door again, Fu Ningxuan turned back to look at Yao Jin and said, "Didn't you say that I am not suitable to have another relationship?"
Yao Jin smiled. "When did you, Young Master Fu, hear my words? The company had earned you a lot of sympathy tears these few days. It was enough. When the new movie is released, the box office sales will also be able to go up. Since you have already instructed how to deal with Xue Jing, then tonight, I will help you publish the breaking up news. "
"Yes." Fu Ningxuan nodded.
At this moment, the door handle was turned and the tightly shut door was slowly opened. Fu Ningxuan and Yao Jin looked over and were both stunned.
Lu Xiaoxi was wearing a dark blue long dress with a fork on her chest. Her skin was as smooth as fat, and there was a golden silk bow tie at her waist. The dark blue dress was especially bright on her body, which made her skin very white. Her two braids were untied, and her messy long hair was scattered. It made the face that looked at the baby fat at first look smaller, and the facial features were also very delicate. He was like a completely different person from before.
Lu Xiaoxi looked at her skirt awkwardly. A pair of jade white hands was twisting the water on her hair. She opened her mouth and said, "Wait till I wash the clothes before sending them back to you."
Fu Ningxuan laughed. He felt that he had indeed picked up a treasure. A thought appeared in his mind. With a thought, he went forward and said, "You don't have to return the clothes. I want to ask you a favor."
Lu Xiaoxi blinked and looked at the two people in front of her. Thinking about the possibility of helping him, she turned around and saw that it was getting late outside. She thought that she probably would not be able to find a job today, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I will help you."
Fu Ningxuan was very satisfied with how straightforward she was. He turned around and poked Yao Jin who was still in a stunning state and instructed, "Call the jewelry, shoes, stylist and makeup artist over. I'll bring her to the ball tonight."
Yao Jin repeatedly made a few oh, but he didn't leave. His gaze still remained on Lu Xiaoxi. When Fu Ningxuan's warning gaze swept over, his body trembled and he hurriedly ran out.
"Ball?" Lu Xiaoxi chewed on the two words and looked down at her clothes. It seemed that this dress really did look like she was going to the ball.
Lu Xiaoxi's hair was slightly curly and her shoes were changed to high heels. She simply put on smoke and makeup on her face and followed Fu Ningxuan out.
After getting into the car, Lu Xiaoxi reached out and took off the high heels on her feet. She muttered, "My feet are so sore."
"It's good that you are used to it." Fu Ningxuan smiled and took out a bottle of medicine wine from the compartment of the car and handed it to her. He said, "Wipe it first. I think we will have to walk for a while later."
Lu Xiaoxi smiled, took it, and began to wipe it.
"You live here?" Fu Ningxuan chatted as he drove.
Lu Xiaoxi thought for a while and nodded. She casually said, "I live on top. It's too tiring to walk down the road."
Fu Ningxuan smiled. When he thought that this was a rich district, her attire really did not fit. He could not help but ask, "Why do you live here?"
"Because I am old..." Lu Xiaoxi opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but then she remembered Chu Zimo's words and the agreement. She said weakly, "Because my relatives are here. I am here to seek shelter from him."
Fu Ningxuan smiled. He didn't care about her change. He just felt that she was tired, so he didn't say anything. He drove towards the ball.
The ball was held on a cruise ship in a private sea. The cruise ship would travel on the sea for three days and then return here. It was a gathering of the upper class.
Fu Ningxuan stopped the car. Lu Xiaoxi wanted to open the car door and get out, but he quickly stopped her and said with a smile, "With me as a knight here, the princess doesn't need to do anything."
His smile was gentle like a warm wind, blowing Lu Xiaoxi's face until it couldn't help but turn red.
Fu Ningxuan got out of the car and walked to her side. He opened the car door for her like a gentleman and reached out his hand to hold her hand to get out of the car. He closed the door in one go, and then very naturally let her hold his arm lightly.
Seeing all his movements, Lu Xiaoxi was very uncomfortable. The smile on her lips was a little stiff, but she did not say anything. She felt that since she agreed to help him, she might as well listen to him.
As soon as the two of them got on the cruise, almost everyone looked over. The man's eyes were filled with surprise and greed, which undoubtedly made Fu Ningxuan very happy, but there was also a trace of displeasure.
Lu Xiaoxi was born with a one-track mind. Naturally, she did not understand that those gazes were directed at her. She only cared about the awkward high heels on her feet. She lifted her skirt and followed Fu Ningxuan, a little unaccustomed to it.
"Fu... Ningxuan." Lu Xiaoxi called his name awkwardly. She felt that his steps were too big and she could not keep up with him.
Fu Ningxuan turned his head and his eyebrows bent. His steps naturally became smaller. His hand consciousness wrapped around her waist to steady her.
"These shoes are really strange. Our village does not have such shoes. They are all cloth shoes." Lu Xiaoxi frowned and said. She did not care much about the hands on her waist.
Fu Ningxuan smiled and said gently, "If you are tired, I will take you there to have a seat."
