The news of the Lotus Pond Moonlight being reserved at the behest of Gu Chenan spread throughout the entire Suhang city.
Reserving a hotel is a common occurrence and should not have caused any ripples.
But the Lotus Pond Moonlight was different.
Every time it was reserved, something significant happened!
Either the younger generation of a prominent family held a wedding, or two influential forces conducted negotiations.
So when the news of the Lotus Pond Moonlight being reserved broke out, it immediately caught the attention of various media outlets in Suhang.
Underneath the hotel, many journalists with press badges stopped in their tracks. Since they didn't know who had reserved the Lotus Pond Moonlight today, everyone was filled with anticipation.
Soon, a convoy consisting of all-black SUVs arrived at the entrance of the Lotus Pond Moonlight Hotel.
The journalists who were gathered there immediately turned their attention to the convoy.
Who could be the main guest today?!
Click, click, click...
The convoy parked, and numerous black-suited bodyguards wearing sunglasses stepped out of the cars, splitting into two teams on either side of the road.
Seeing this display, the expectations of the journalists and onlookers skyrocketed.
Who on earth had reserved the Lotus Pond Moonlight? They must have significant influence to warrant such a grand entourage!
Under the gaze of the crowd, a man dressed in a deep blue suit, exuding a handsome aura, descended from one of the vehicles.
The journalists raised their eyebrows in surprise.
Gu Shaoye?!
The young master of the Gu family from Donghai!
They didn't expect him to visit Suhang!
But at the same time, a question arose in everyone's minds.
Why did Gu Shaoye reserve the Lotus Pond Moonlight? Was it for a business negotiation? Or to host a gathering with the prominent families of Suhang?
However, at that moment, the door on the other side of the car opened.
A slender and well-proportioned leg, clad in silk stockings and silver high heels, stepped out.
The crowd held their breath, their eyes fixed on the other side of the car door.
In the next second, Xiao Yajie, wearing a pure white evening gown, emerged from the vehicle.
Immediately, the onlookers widened their eyes.
Miss Xiao?!
Miss Xiao actually came to the Lotus Pond Moonlight for a meal with Gu Shaoye?
No, it was Gu Shaoye who had reserved the Lotus Pond Moonlight for Xiao Yajie!
So, was Gu Shaoye pursuing Xiao Yajie?!
Given Gu Shaoye's notorious reputation in Donghai, Xiao Yajie shouldn't accept, right?
"Gu Shaoye, Miss Xiao, please come inside," said the manager of the Lotus Pond Moonlight, standing in front of the hotel entrance, welcoming Gu Chenan and Xiao Yajie.
Gu Chenan tightly held Xiao Yajie's flawless jade hand. "Let's go, Yajie."
"Okay," Xiao Yajie nodded, showing no signs of refusal. She even took the opportunity to link her arm with Gu Chenan's.
Witnessing this scene, the journalists and onlookers were stunned.
This wasn't just Gu Shaoye pursuing Miss Xiao, they were already in a relationship!
Otherwise, why would Xiao Yajie show no signs of refusal and even take the initiative to link arms with Gu Shaoye?
For a moment, various emotions filled the hearts of the onlookers.
There was displeasure, regret, but above all, curiosity.
Xiao Yajie was from Suhang, while Gu Chenan was from Donghai. Before this, there had been no news of them knowing each other.
Furthermore, it's difficult to understand how Gu Chenan, who has a terrible reputation, ended up with Xiao Yajie, who is known in Suhang for her pure sexiness.
What's more, both the local reporters and the onlookers from Suhang felt a sense of frustration and dissatisfaction, as if their own prized cabbage had been taken by a pig.
...
Ding! The elevator doors opened.
Gu Chenan and Xiao Yajie stepped out.
Suddenly, Xiao Yajie was taken aback.
The lights were dim, candles flickered, rose petals floated in the air, and the scent of roses filled the atmosphere.
There were even signs made of rose petals and candles on the ground, pointing the way.
Her heart couldn't help but beat faster.
She was familiar with the moonlight in the lotus pond, but the current scene of lotus pond moonlight was completely unfamiliar yet romantic.
After walking a few steps, a banner appeared, which read: "Miss Xiao Yajie, thank you for accepting my love - Gu Chenan, who loves you."
"Was it arranged so well?" Xiao Yajie turned around and smiled.
"Well, it's just average. We must go all out when acting," Gu Chenan smiled and walked forward, grabbing Xiao Yajie's hand. "Let's go inside."
The two of them walked along the path made of candles and rose petals and entered the restaurant.
The lighting in the restaurant was extremely dim, or rather, all the lights were off except for the emergency exit signs.
The only light came from the candles.
In the center of the restaurant, there was a table with flickering candlesticks and scented smoke.
They took their seats.
Xiao Yajie looked at Gu Chenan's face, which was illuminated by the candlelight, and her heart started beating rapidly for no reason.
She had never been in a relationship before, but she had fantasized about such a romantic scene.
However, she didn't expect that when she actually encountered such a scene, she would be playing the role of someone else's girlfriend.
For a moment, Xiao Yajie felt a bit disappointed.
Gu Chenan crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair. He glanced at the reporters and onlookers outside the window, then looked at his watch.
"What's wrong? Is there something else?" Xiao Yajie asked.
Gu Chenan nodded and then pulled Xiao Yajie up from her chair and took her to the floor-to-ceiling window.
"What else do we need to do?" Xiao Yajie asked nervously.
She wasn't afraid that Gu Chenan would do something to her, but she was afraid that if things continued like this, her heart would jump out of her chest.
Gu Chenan held Xiao Yajie's wrist with one hand and put his arm around her slender waist with the other. "We need the journalists down there to take photos."
Feeling Gu Chenan's breath so close, Xiao Yajie blushed and turned her head to the side, slowly nodding. "Oh."
"By the way, I need you to do one more thing for me," Gu Chenan said.
"W-what is it?"
"Give me a kiss."
"What?" Xiao Yajie was startled and was about to refuse.
Bang!
A firework burst in the sky!
The dazzling colors of the fireworks illuminated the two people in front of the window, and the attention of the reporters immediately shifted to them.
"Now is the perfect time," Gu Chenan said.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Several fireworks flew into the pitch-black night sky, blooming with brilliant colors.
Meanwhile, the sound of fireworks exploding masked Gu Chenan's voice. Xiao Yajie couldn't hear clearly, and she shouted, "What did you say?"
Gu Chenan shouted back, "I said, right now, give me a kiss!"
Xiao Yajie shook her head. "I can't hear!"
The background sound of fireworks continued to echo, and the red and yellow fireworks reflected corresponding colors on the two of them.
Gu Chenan stopped speaking and suddenly tightened his hold on Xiao Yajie's waist, pulling her into his arms.
Their bodies pressed against each other, and Gu Chenan's other hand embraced Xiao Yajie's head as he leaned in for a kiss.
This sudden kiss caused Xiao Yajie's pupils to dilate. She wanted to push Gu Chenan away, but for some reason, her hands remained on his chest without making any effort to push him away.
Bang!
The fireworks bloomed once again, casting a golden hue on their figures.
Click, click, click!
At the same time, the reporters downstairs went crazy, capturing this scene by rapidly pressing the shutter button.
