Gu Fei immediately told Ning Yuan about how Luo Sen had been scolded by the head of the broadcasting station.

After hearing this, Ning Yuan did not ridicule him.

He only said, “I have nothing to do with them.”

Gu Fei gave Ning Yuan a thumbs up. “You have to be so easygoing.”

Ning Yuan smiled. “Continue working!”

Recently, she had been working overtime almost every day. At ten in the evening, Ning Yuan could not take it anymore and fell asleep on the table.

Xie Ancheng came out of the office and saw Ning Yuan lying on the table. He walked over, took off his suit jacket and put it on her.

Gu Fei came back from the washroom and happened to see this scene.

Her heart skipped a beat.

Did Old Xie like Yuan Yuan?

Ning Yuan woke up after sleeping for more than ten minutes. She was slightly stunned when she saw the suit jacket on her shoulders.

He took off his jacket and glanced at Xie Ancheng’s office.

Getting up, he walked over and knocked on the office door. “President Xie.”

Xie Ancheng looked up at Ning Yuan. Seeing the suit in her hand, he explained, “The temperature has dropped recently and the weather is a little cold. I’m afraid you’ll catch a cold.”

Ning Yuan smiled. “Thank you.” She returned the jacket to him.

“There’s a charity banquet tomorrow night. Our magazine agency has been invited. Come with me.”

“Okay, no problem.”

….

The next day.

Ning Yuan wore a black backless dress and went to the charity party with Xie Ancheng.

Her long seaweed-like hair fell over her shoulders, her slightly exposed back could be seen vaguely in her hair. Her waist was slender and her figure was tall and perfect, dignified and elegant with the charm of a woman.

Ning Yuan held Xie Ancheng’s arm and entered the banquet hall.

Her makeup was more elegant and not too aggressive.

Others would only think that she was beautiful and elegant at first sight and would not have any ill intentions toward her!

Many of the guests who came to attend the banquet were guests that Ning Yuan had interviewed before. Ning Yuan greeted them gracefully.

“Beauty Ning!”

Hearing Feng Chen’s voice, Ning Yuan turned back to look at him.

Feng Chen was wearing a white suit, his hair parted to the side, making him look extremely extravagant.

He walked towards Ning Yuan with a glass of champagne. “Long time no see, you’re getting prettier!”

In the past, when Feng Chen saw Ning Yuan wearing a long red dress, she was especially dazzling. He did not expect her to look so good in black.

Ning Yuan smiled slightly. “Thank you for your praise.”

He was calm and composed. Compared to before, he was much more mature.

Feng Chen wanted to say something when there was a commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall.

A tall figure appeared in front of everyone.

The man was wearing a black suit, his perfectly ironed suit pants wrapped around his long legs and a strong aura surrounded him.

A tall and beautiful figure followed beside the man. She was wearing a long red dress that outlined the woman’s graceful figure. Her black hair was draped over her shoulders and her fiery red lips were charming.

Ning Yuan looked at the couple who walked in and was slightly dazed.

Her grip on the wine glass tightened slightly.

She had not seen Ye Yu for almost three months.

She did not delete his WeChat and phone number, but she had never contacted him and he had never contacted her.

She would occasionally see him on TV, but she would not let herself stop and look.

He was like a poppy and she was afraid that she would get more addicted until she could not quit!

She forced herself to suppress herself.

She thought that time would calm her down, but seeing him arrive with a beautiful woman beside him, she still felt a little upset!

But what did this have to do with anything?

They had long become strangers.

Ning Yuan took a deep breath and downed the champagne in her glass.

After Ye Yu entered the banquet hall, he was surrounded by guests.

Ning Yuan did not go forward to greet him. She changed her glass of champagne and walked toward the banquet hall’s terrace.

Leaning against the balcony railing, she took a deep breath.

“You still can’t forget him?”

Xie Ancheng’s voice sounded from behind.

Ning Yuan turned back and saw the concern in Xie Ancheng’s eyes. She smirked slightly. “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Xie Ancheng stood beside Ning Yuan, his slender hand on the railing as he looked at Ning Yuan with gentle and handsome eyes. “I have a way to let you out. Do you want to try?”

Ning Yuan raised her eyebrows slightly. “What do you have in mind?”

“Start a new relationship.”

Ning Yuan smiled lightly. “It’s not that easy. Besides, I don’t have any plans to start a new relationship for the time being.”

Xie Ancheng looked at Ning Yuan and wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.

Perhaps they were more suitable to be partners than lovers.

“If you want to be in a relationship, let me know. I promise to introduce you to a young and handsome man.”

Ning Yuan smiled. “Thank you, President Xie.”

After Xie Ancheng entered the banquet hall, Ning Yuan stood alone for a while and was about to leave when she turned back and met a pair of deep black eyes.

Ye Yu had unknowingly stood by the glass door between the terrace and the banquet hall. He had a hand in his pocket and looked at her with dark eyes.

Ning Yuan’s heart thumped.

She pursed her lips and took a deep breath to calm herself down.

Ye Yu straightened his body and walked toward her.

He stood a few steps away from her, his tall body leaning against the railing. He took out a cigarette and lowered his head to light it.

The rising smoke covered his well-defined face. He narrowed his dark eyes and looked at her beautiful face. “How have you been recently?”

Ning Yuan had already calmed herself down. Facing his deep and dark gaze, she smiled calmly. “Everything is fine after changing to a new job.”

He exhaled a mouthful of smoke slowly, his expression unchanged. “You’re not working at the broadcasting company anymore?”

“Mm.”

The two of them chatted casually and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.

Ning Yuan was about to find an excuse to leave when a woman in a long red dress walked over. She held Ye Yu’s arm and smiled brightly. “So many people are looking for you. So you hid here.”

Ye Yu pulled the woman’s hand away quietly and said in a deep and calm voice, “I’ll be right there.”

The woman raised her eyebrows and looked at Ning Yuan. She was about to say something when she heard Ye Yu say coldly, “Go in first.”

The woman shrugged and walked toward the banquet hall.

When only Ning Yuan and Ye Yu were left on the terrace, Ning Yuan smiled and said, “Don’t be so fierce to your girlfriend!”

Ye Yu looked at Ning Yuan’s smiling face and a complicated look flashed past his eyes. He pursed his lips slightly. “She’s my cousin, not my girlfriend.”

Ning Yuan was slightly stunned. When she regained her senses, she chuckled.

Ye Yu put out the cigarette and said in a deep voice, “I’m still single.”
