"Aren't you preparing a gift for Hao? Why are you still in bed?" Kerry said.
Venus quickly got up from the bed and asked, "You're taking me to get a present for Hao?"
Kerry wore a mocking smile and said indifferently, "You daydreaming again? I'm just reminding you not
to forget to get him a present, but you'll have to buy it yourself."
Venus pursed her lips and said, "Kerry, you're a jerk."
"Don't piss me off or I'll treat you in bed like I just did." Kerry warned.
"You… you are….." Venus was furious, but she didn’t dare to curse him again.
........
The Nangong family is a rather prestigious and powerful family in Sky City, so Hao Nangong's birthday
dinner attracted much attention. According to the media, the venue for Nangong Hao's birthday
banquet was to be held at a luxurious beach hotel.
Venus arrived at the banquet venue early in the morning in the Ye family's car. Kerry and Xinyou were
also present at the party.
Kerry was dressed in fancy black suit, which set off his handsome and made him look more calm and
restrained.
Xinyou in a long and pink gown wore exquisite makeup and lipstick of the same color, which made her
look more beautiful.
When Xinyou looked at Venus’s dress, she said mockingly, “Which shop did you buy the knockoff
Chanel dress you're wearing?"
Venus ignored her. She didn't want to argue with her on this occasion. She looked down at the gown
that had been altered by her and she felt angry suddenly.
Yesterday Kerry had torn the gown given to her by Hao in half. When he left, Venus quickly drew a
design and mended it overnight. She used lily petals to cover up the torn area and added some faux
feathers on top. As for the torn part of the chest, she changed it to a deep v style.
Compared to the previous exquisite and relatively conservative style, the dress was now sexy and
elegant.
Seeing Venus ignore her, Xinyou was a little angry. She was about to continue to mock Venus, but she
heard Hao’s words.
"Venus, did you alter the dress?"
Venus was worried that Hao would get angry, but she couldn't tell him the real reason, so she could
only say with an apologetic look, "I'm sorry, Hao. When I have beautiful clothes, I want to alter them
myself."
Hao shook his head, smiled gently, and said, "Never mind. It's beautiful, even more beautiful than the
previous style."
"Thank you for your appreciation." Venus blushed and said gratefully.
Xinyou looked at the interaction between the two and snorted internally.
"Hao Nangong, your praise is too hypocritical." Xinyou thought.
But she also wanted Hao to catch up with Venus quickly so Venus could divorce Kerry.
Xinyou looked around for Kerry. Finally she found that Kerry was talking to some men.
But Kerry always paid attention to Venus. When he saw Hao go to Venus, his face darkened and he
stopped talking to these men and left.
When Xinyou saw Kerry approach her, she put her arm around him, but she didn't notice that Kerry
looked a little reluctant.
Venus saw the scene, but didn't have any expression. She understood Xinyou's purpose of being
intimate with Kerry. She wanted to anger Venus and tell the others that Kerry belonged to her.
But Venus wasn't annoyed, simply because she didn't care about Kerry's relationship with her.
"If she wants Kerry so badly, then she needs to win his affection. I don’t care." Venus thought.
At this moment, Hao extended his right hand gentlemanly, saying, "Venus, I wonder if I have the honor
to ask you to dance?
