Chapter 1070: Chapter 1070: Center of Attention

“Jian, we’re here, why aren’t you getting out of the car?” Yuanyuan asked, lifting her dress as she walked up to where Jian Dan was still sitting in the car.

“I might as well be dead!” Jian Dan took a deep breath and got out of the car.

“Why do you look like you’ve resigned yourself to your fate?” Sizhe complained.

“I don’t know what kind of reaction Chu Liyuan will have when he sees me!”

“What reaction could he possibly have? Of course, he’d want to just gobble you up in one bite, right?” Sizhe said with a mischievous smile.

“Sizhe, can you be serious for a moment? I am quite serious about this!”

“When am I not serious?”

“Do you believe I could knock you out?”

“What are you two doing? Why are you snapping at each other at a time like this? The party is about to start, let’s hurry inside!” Yuanyuan diverted their attention before the two could “start fighting.”

Jian Dan adjusted her mood and slowly walked into the party with Yuanyuan and Sizhe…

Whether intentional or not, when Sizhe and Yuanyuan entered, the lights did not shine on them, but as soon as Jian Dan walked through the door, a spotlight hit her.

Jian Dan instinctively raised her hand to shield her eyes from the dazzling light.

The moment the spotlight hit Jian Dan, all eyes in the venue were drawn to her, and she instantly became the center of attention.

Receiving so many gazes at once made Jian Dan somewhat uncomfortable.

Chu Liyuan did not really like attending such parties, and he had come reluctantly today, only because Shang Simiao had insisted.

Chu Liyuan was the focus of attention wherever he went, so even if he wanted to keep a low profile, it was impossible!

All the attention that had been on him suddenly shifted elsewhere—

Chu Liyuan, too, looked curiously towards the entrance.

He wished he hadn’t looked because once he did, his eyes were fixed and could not be moved away.

The girl who had attracted the gaze of the entire hall was none other than his Jian Jian!

He looked at Jian Jian, and in that moment, he was utterly stunned; she was so beautiful that not even fairies from the heavens could compare.

Chu Liyuan noticed Jian Dan looking uncomfortable under the scrutiny and quickly stepped forward, wrapping his arm around her waist and drawing her into his embrace.

“Chu Liyuan~ Chu Liyuan~ Chu Liyuan~”

His senses hadn’t fully returned, so it wasn’t until Jian Dan called out for the third time that Chu Liyuan regained his composure.

“Jian… Jian Jian~” Chu Liyuan stuttered unexpectedly.

“Chu Liyuan, are you okay?”

“I am fine!” Chu Liyuan’s gaze couldn’t shift away from Jian Dan, as if it were welded in place.

“Oh! Chu Liyuan, I’m hungry, I haven’t eaten anything since noon!” Jian Dan said, rubbing her stomach.

Upon hearing Jian Dan’s words, Sizhe nearly stumbled—

How could Jian Dan be so out of touch? To kill the mood like that at such a moment!

Chu Liyuan’s lips curled into a smile—this was his lass!

“Come with me~”

Chu Liyuan, holding Jian Dan, slowly made their way toward the dining area…

The eyes of everyone at the party were captivated by the two, who would absolutely be a breathtaking sight if walking down the street!

“I just tried these, and they are quite good!”

When Chu Liyuan arrived at the party, he had already tasted all the food, so he could pick out Jian Jian’s favorites when she arrived.

“Thank you, Chu Liyuan!” Just as Jian Dan was about to take the plate from Chu Liyuan’s hand, it seemed as if she had a second thought and withdrew her hand.

“Chu Liyuan, feed me, ah~” Jian Dan said, opening her mouth expectantly at Chu Liyuan.

Chu Liyuan was a little bemused by Jian Dan’s sudden request but took some food with a fork and put it into her mouth.

“Mmm! So delicious! Chu Liyuan, you really know my taste best, and the food tastes even better when you feed me!” Jian Dan made sure to raise her voice a bit.

Rolling his eyes, Sizhe commented, “Jian Dan, isn’t your desire for revenge a bit too strong? Didn’t I just make you eat some ‘dog food’ a moment ago, and you’re already giving it back to me?”

“Isn’t this for the sake of your mental and physical health?”

Chu Liyuan, looking at Jian Jian, smiled and lifted her chin, pressing his lips against hers…

His lass, of course, he would support her…
