1089: I Admit That I'm Jealous (2)

I Admit That I'm Jealous (2)

Upon seeing that he didn't reject her, Tian Yunxin was over the moon. She held his arm, basking in the crowd's envious gazes as she strutted alongside him.1

It was then that her vanity reached its peak. She swore to herself that she would snag Young Master Ye and become the wife of the future CEO of the Ye Corporation!

Tian Yunxin's chin lifted as she thought about this, confidence glowing brightly on her exquisitely powdered face.

Meanwhile.

A worldwide limited edition Lincoln drove up and stopped at the entrance.

A stunning Western man got out of the car and walked over to the passenger seat.

He opened the car door and offered his hand in a gentlemanly fashion.

A little hand as fair as white jade placed itself on his hand. A pair of fair and slender legs then emerged, her feet encased in exquisite heels studded with diamonds.

The attention of the crowd seemed to be seized by the sight, and their gazes all turned towards them.

They saw an angelic girl step out of the car. Her exquisite little face looked as though it was God's most perfect creation.

Some people recognized the gentleman beside her, and they started to converse spiritedly.

"Isn't that Prince Chris? Who is that girl beside him? She's so pretty!"

"I hear that Prince Chris is about to be engaged. That's probably his fiancée, right? They look so well-matched."

"Given his background, Prince Chris's fiancée must be something."

Annie couldn't help but hear the voices discussing them when she stepped out of the car.

Her attention slipped a little, and the high-heel beneath her foot wobbled, almost twisting her ankle.

Chris caught her by the waist adroitly and pulled her into his embrace without missing a beat.

"Annie, you're distracted again," he smiled as he said. Even though his tone was admonishing, his eyes held a gentle smile.

Annie stabilized herself and moved back a little so that he would release the hand that he was holding her with.

She pouted as she explained, "These shoes are a little too tall. I haven't worn high-heels in a while, so I'm not used to them."

She was referring to the time when she had been in China. She hadn't worn high-heels during that period as she didn't need to attend any banquets.

Chris lifted his elbow so that she could hold on to him. This way, she could use him for support.

Annie was wearing a strapless champagne-colored gown tonight. All her clothes were specially made designer exclusives, and they were one of a kind which meant that her outfit would never clash with someone else's.

Their arrival attracted the crowd's attention.

It was partly due to their pleasant appearances which made others want to steal more glances at them.

Even the host of the banquet, Duke Berg, came over to greet them when he got wind of their arrival.

Annie sustained a smile on her face, her manners perfect.

She was used to these types of functions. Thus, she didn't feel nervous and was natural in her etiquette.

However, she didn't know why she was feeling awkward today.

She suddenly felt that functions like these were really boring, and that it was much more meaningful to hang out with Xiaoxiao and the rest.

Thinking about Xiaoxiao made her think of Ye Sijue involuntarily.
