The car went on the broad, straight road swiftly heading towards Imperial Sky Entertainment City. They parked by the outdoor plaza and got out of the car.
When the three of them entered Entertainment City, there was already a large crowd inside.
Su Nan dragged Xi Xiaye and ran around the place while Ruan Heng was like an assistant trying his best to keep up with them while holding their things.
They walked around the wedding dress boutiques before going to Jewellery City.
Su Nan was an impatient person who would want things to be done immediately whenever she thought of it, for example, choosing a ring.
The bunch went towards Jewellery City and Su Nan’s eyes lit up when she saw a shelf full of diamond rings.
When she saw Su Nan’s sparkling eyes and her delighted expression, Xi Xiaye then realized the myth that many women indulged in the bright lights of diamonds was true.
Perhaps amidst the bright glitter hid the princess dreams of every girl, and it held the image of happiness all girls were searching for.
"How is it? How is it? Xiaye, does this look pretty?"
As Xi Xiaye was watching how excited her friend was, Su Nan quickly showed her a ring she put on. She exclaimed, "It seems pretty intricate. I like it!"
Xi Xiaye gazed down at the diamond ring on Su Nan’s ring finger. It had a curled up heart-shaped petal design and seemed beautiful on Su Nan’s hand.
She raised her eyebrows and nodded. "It looks great. As long as you like it!"
"Nannan, you look great with all of them. Which one do you like the most?" Ruan Heng showed several other diamond rings to Su Nan and asked in a very gentle tone.
"Xiaye, which one should I get? Hmm, hey let me see yours!"
Su Nan grabbed Xi Xiaye’s hand and her eyes brightened when she saw the ring on her hand. It was not flashy, yet oddly nice. Basically, it was low-profile and elegant.
"Where did you get this? It looks fabulous!" Su Nan was surprised.
Xi Xiaye retracted her hand uncomfortably and smiled. "Just pick this one. He gave it to me, so I have no idea."
Su Nan nodded but she suddenly frowned after taking a look at the price. She turned to Ruan Heng and said hesitantly, "It’s pretty expensive…"
"It’s alright. It’s once in a lifetime! As long as you like it." Ruan Heng smiled, then he took out a card from his shirt pocket and handed it to the saleslady. In his gentle tone, he said, "We’ll have this. Please pack it up for us."
"Noted, Sir!"
The saleslady accepted his card with two hands and a big smile on her face. Xi Xiaye
It was the card Mu Yuchen had given her, the all-pass to Glory World.
Su Nan chuckled in surprise. "I almost forgot you’re a top brass in Glory World… Haha, aren’t we taking advantage of you right now?"
"Why not when you can?" Xi Xiaye grinned. She explained to the saleslady as she seemed unclear, "Just key in the number on the card and the discount should pop up."
The saleslady then took her card to try it out.
The sky darkened slightly when they came out from Jewellery City and a light drizzle started to fall from the gray sky.
It was around 5 p.m. and with such weather, the sky had already darkened.
Ah Mo was waiting for Xi Xiaye at the entrance of Jewellery City. He quickly went up to her when he saw her figure.
"Missus!" Ah Mo bowed politely to Su Nan and Ruan Heng. Then, he said to Xi Xiaye, "Master asked me to bring you all over. It’s already pretty late and I’m worried that you guys might be hungry."
"Has he gotten off the plane?" Xi Xiaye frowned as she glanced at Ruan Heng who was holding a lot of bags at the moment.
Ah Mo went up to Ruan Heng and took the bags from him. With a smile, he said apologetically, "Li Si called me and said they are rushing over, but Master’s phone has run out of battery."
He probably forgot to charge his phone last night!
Xi Xiaye nodded before she turned around and looked at a stunned Su Nan. "Let’s go. We’ll have dinner first. He’ll be here soon. I know you guys have a lot of questions, but you guys will your answer later when you see him."
She then swiftly went forward.
Su Nan swallowed her words that reached her throat as Ruan Heng and she looked at each other before catching up with Xi Xiaye.
Imperial Sky Hotel, one of the projects under Imperial Sky Entertainment City, was the first to be completed among all the projects.
Following Xi Xiaye through the long corridor, Su Nan was impressed by the grand internal decoration of the hotel. "Xiaye, I really think Glory World Corporation is pretty amazing. In fact, it feels very luxurious. Oh right, back then, I heard Glory World’s Master has fully taken over the business. Tell us about the internal gossip. Is that rarely-seen Master Mu really suffering from frigidity?" Su Nan suppressed her voice and asked next to Xi Xiaye’s ear.
Su Nan’s words made Xi Xiaye halt in her steps. She unexpectedly looked at Su Nan in surprise. "Who did you say suffers from frigidity?"
"The well-known Master Mu of Glory World Corporation. Didn’t you know?"
Su Nan could not help but raise her pitch as she looked at Xi Xiaye with dramatic wide eyes. "Don’t tell me you really don’t know about it! The media and magazines are all discussing this in private, but you actually don’t know?"
As a freelance fashion designer, Su Nan would frequently flip through fashion magazines and had a certain level of understanding towards the gossip in town.
"How’s that possible?" Xi Xiaye looked at Su Nan in shock.
Was Mu Yuchen really suffering from frigidity?
"For someone of his position, avoiding social events, being overly low-profile, and not being seen near women, isn’t that the only viable explanation? Let me tell you. Someone saw him making a big fuss just because a woman touched his arm, and that woman was from a pretty prestigious family," Su Nan said carefully.
"Those are just gossip made up by the reporters. He wouldn’t be…"
"You’d best believe it. I think Master Mu must have some kind of problem. Let me tell you, men of his caliber usually have some top secret of their own!"
"Mu Yuchen wouldn’t be…"
"Cough!"
Just as Xi Xiaye was trying to say something, Ah Mo coughed several times. Stunned, she stopped her sentence halfway with an odd expression on her face.
As she took a deep breath and was about to continue walking, a certain person’s voice came from the back.
