As soon as the two entered the villa, they attracted people there. Not only because of their outstanding
looks, but also because they were strange and mysterious to these big shots in A City.
Kerry Ye was talking to a business tycoon and when he saw them, he said, “Make yourself at home.”
and strode over, reaching out to shake Xuan Chu’ s hand, and said, “How are you? Do you like it?”
“I love this, thank you for your help.” Xuan Chu said sincerely.
Kerry looked at the radiant Venus and smiled, “You’re welcome. We shall help each other.”
Xuan Chu smiled indifferently, of course he knew what agreement had been made between Kerry and
Venus, but that was their couple’s affair, and the three of them just got what they wanted.
Because it was summer, it would be hot even with powerful air conditioning, for there were so many
people indoors. Therefore, Kerry held the banquet directly on the green lawn, with buffet, wine and
melodious piano music. Next to it was the flowery garden and not far away there was a clear artificial
lake…
“What are you always looking at me?” Venus followed Kerry and Xuan Chu towards the central venue,
while sensing his gaze and asked in a small voice.
“Nothing, you’re pretty today.” Kerry said with a smile. She had always been the focus of the crowd,
even if she did a little make-up today, her elegance couldn’t be suppressed.
Venus raised her eyebrows, “I thought you were going to say the same thing as my brother.”
“Oh? What did he say?” “He said I was dressed like a nun, too plain.”
Kerry curled his lips and laughed inwardly.
How could she look like a nun? She was clearly a baby deer in the forest.
A melodious piano music ended and Kerry went onto the stage to take the microphone, outstanding.
Many women fixed their eyes on him.
“Thank you all for coming. We have worked together in A City for so many years and there has been
friction and cooperation, but I hope that tonight, we all put aside the past and have a happy evening.
Thank you all.”
The enthusiastic applause ended and Kerry began his mission for the night—taking Xuan Chu around
to socialize.
“Uncle Li, long time no see, I’m glad you come.” Kerry shook hands with a middle-aged man.
“Not everyone can receive an invitation from you. Mr. Ye, it’s an honor for me.” The man shook his
hand warmly.
Kerry smiled politely and began to introduce for the two people, “Xuan Chu, this is Huatai company’s
Mr. Li, specializing in hardware, but also real estate. He not only monopolizes all the hardware market
in A City, but also famous around the whole country. Uncle Li, Xuan Chu is the young master of Hong
Kong MK company, and now we are working together on an amusement park project.”
Xuan Chu stretched out his hand, “Hello, Mr. Li. In the future we hope to work with you.”
Mr. Li shook his hand, “I’ve heard of MK company for a long time ago, but I didn’t expect the young
master to be so young and promising. I also hope to work with you.”
Seeing the two chatting happily, she found a quiet place to rest. But it’s not easy to find a such place
and soon a young man with a red wine came over.
“Why is the beauty here alone?”
Venus looked at him, who was quite familiar and she should have seen him before.
“I don’t like crowded places.”
“What a coincidence. Me too.” The man kept looking at her bright face, “May I know your name?” “My
surname is Chu.”
The young man was slightly surprised, “I just heard that the man next to Mr. Ye is also surnamed Chu,
and the two of you are…”
“He’s my brother.” Venus said with a smile on her face.
“Ah, Miss Chu, nice to meet you. My surname is Zhou and here’s my business card.” The young man
served a business card with both hands, which Venus didn’t want to take, but now that she was Yan
Chu and she had to take a look at it. He seemed to be a director of a company.
He should be a rich second generation.
“Sorry, I don’t have a business card.” Venus pretended to be sorry, but she actually didn’t want to give
him her phone number.
The man was also very graceful and didn’t dwell on it, “Miss Chu, are you still used to living here?”
“I’m well adapted, so there’s no discomfort.” Though she was talking to him, she couldn’t stop looking
at Kerry and Xuan Chu. At this time, they were already the most shining star. She had to admit that
Xuan Chu was really good at socializing. In just ten minutes, he was surrounded by many people,
sometimes talking freely, sometimes listening carefully. Besides, he was good-looking and standing
next to Kerry didn’t make him less attractive.
The young man followed her gaze, joking, “Your brother is going to be the dream lover of many
women.”
Venus was surprised.
“See.” The man pointed to the corner where there were more females, and sure enough, they were all
gazing at Xuan Chu and Kerry.
Venus burst into laughter and teased, “How do you know they’re not looking at Kerry but my brother?”
The man was a little surprised that she called Kerry instead of Mr. Ye and he explained, “Maybe you
haven’t stayed here for too long. Mr. Ye loves his wife so much. Although his wife went abroad to study,
but there was no gossip about him. He never allows any woman to come to him, which is already
known to all. So, I think they are looking at your brother.”
Venus was startled, but she didn’t catch the thing he wanted to express. It turned out that that’s the
public opinion towards Kerry. It turned out that everyone thought that she had gone abroad to study.
How could they believe such a stupid lie?
Kerry, who was standing in the center of the crowd, saw that Yan Chu looked happy and understood
that he was no longer needed here, so he was ready to leave. Sweeping the crowd, he soon found Yan
Chu, as well as the man beside her.
Kerry came out of the crowd and grabbed a glass of juice and walked over.
Seeing Kerry coming, he greeted and soon left.
“What are you guys chatting about? You look really happy.” Kerry gave her the juice in his hand.
Venus smiled brightly and said, “Nothing, just talking. Why do you come here?”
“I came over to keep you company in case you may feel boring.”
“Thank you then.” Venus smiled.
Kerry was dazed as he looked into these eyes, for he had never seen such happiness in these eyes,
mischievous with joy.
“What?” Venus’s panicked as he stared at her, not knowing what this guy was thinking.
Kerry somehow felt ached inside. He wanted to keep seeing these eyes, instead of helplessness,
despair or deep hatred.
“Nothing. What do you want to eat? I’ll go get some for you.” Kerry said in a low voice.
“No, thank you. I’ll do it myself if I want. You don’t have to do anything for me. I won’t be able to have a
quiet night and there must be people watching me everywhere I go.” Venus was telling the truth. Right
now, there are already many men and women looking over, who were now creating some stories in
their minds.
In people’ s opinion, Kerry was cold and arrogant, not close to women, but tonight he was with Xuan
Chu and now he was standing with Yan Chu and joking. Naturally people would think a lot.
However, none of them could influence Kerry, who only cared about the things and people he cared
about.
“Well, if you’re really bored, you can go to the villa and rest. You’re familiar with this place anyway.”
“I know. You should go to your guests, you’re the host tonight.”
Kerry gazed at her, whose pink lips were glistening seductively in the soft light, making him so badly to
take a bite now.
“Call me if you need anything.”
“I know, please go. If you don’t go, I’m going to go crazy with their looks.” Venus urged him to leave.
Kerry smiled helplessly and turned into the crowd.
Venus had no intention of talking with these people and walked alone towards the lake.
She suddenly remembered that it was once such a lively night too, when a man told her by the lake
that he liked her and wanted to take her with him.
Now that she thought about it, this was like something that had happened in her last life. She didn’t
know if he’s doing well or if he’s found a girl who liked him and he liked her.
He was so warm, and he deserved a better love.
The wind blew and the music was keeping coming though the wind and Mu Venus keeped looking at
her phone. It was already two hours and if they didn’t start, it would be over.
When she looked at her phone again, she received a message from Xuan Chu, with only one word—
start.
Venus took a deep breath, drinking all the juice in her glass in one gulp, and started to call Kerry.
The phone rang three times before getting through, “Hello?”
“I have a stomachache, at the lake.” Venus said with a frown.
The smile on Kerry’ s face didn’t change, but there was a tension in his voice, “I’ll be right there.”
A minute or two later, Venus saw him running over, so she even covered her belly and lay down on the
chair.
“What happened?” Kerry helped her up and saw that she was crying with tears in her eyes.
“My stomach hurts.” She said in aggravation.
