Chapter 122: Chapter 123 Too Low Collar (1)

"Little thing, you’ve got quite the eye!"

Gan Yuan draped the dress over herself and compared it against her reflection in the mirror, then lifted her leg to examine the white Oxford shoes she wore.

Such a beautiful dress certainly required a pair of high heels.

Glancing at her watch, she tucked the dress into her closet and hurried downstairs, stopping at a nearby shoe store to buy a pair of white high heels.

By the time she returned to the balcony, guests had already started to arrive.

Gan Yuan quickly slipped into the changing room, dressed in the new gown and shoes, and assessed her appearance in the mirror. She casually twisted her long hair up behind her head, took out some basic makeup from her bag, and applied a light touch-up.

Looking at the wide-brimmed glasses on the shelf, she pondered for a moment but ultimately decided to put them back on. After tidying up and locking her belongings away, she turned and left the changing room.

By now, all the guests had arrived, and the event was about to begin. Huangfu Jue, the president of the HF Group, also arrived on the balcony on time.

For such a formal and significant event, Huangfu Jue was naturally dressed to impress.

A dark blue suit, a white shirt... simple yet classic, paired with a bow tie and a pocket square that matched the color scheme of Gan Yuan’s dress. A sapphire-topped cane pin diagonally adorned his collar, echoing the sapphire cufflinks on his sleeves, with each detail showcasing taste, elegance, and distinction.

With one hand in his trouser pocket and the other hanging by his side, he was followed by Will and another assistant, along with two bodyguards. Behind them came his subordinates from the company, all striding confidently into the venue, like a king surveying his realm.

"Mr. Huangfu!"

"Mr. Huangfu is here!"

...

At his appearance, reporters immediately converged from all directions. Will and others quickly stepped forward, using their bodies to keep the crowd at bay.

"Mr. Huangfu, may I ask if the name of the new brand has been confirmed?"

"What is the theme of your company’s new children’s clothing line?"

...

The reporters took out their cameras to snap photos while bombarding him with questions.

The other guests, who had been chatting idly, also approached to exchange pleasantries, greet, and curry favor.

Standing among the throng, the man was like the sun surrounded by stars, tall and dazzling, impossible to overlook, yet intimidating enough to keep people from drawing too close.

Huangfu Jue did not give any of the individuals surrounding him a straight look. He ignored the questions from the reporters, nodding politely into the air as a form of courtesy. His gaze traveled over the tops of everyone’s heads, searching the crowd for the figure he wished to see.

At a glance, he recognized the distinctive blue figure on one side of the venue.

Moving through the crowd, he gestured to Will with a raise of his hand. Having worked by his side for many years, Will knew exactly what he meant and immediately moved forward with the bodyguards to hold back the people.

"Welcome everyone to this fashion show. The presentation is about to begin. Please take your seats as directed by the staff. If you have any questions, Mr. Huangfu will address them after the fashion show."

Using this moment, Huangfu Jue had already made his way to the backstage entrance and reached out to grab Gan Yuan, who was about to enter. He dragged her into a secluded corner, away from prying eyes.

"What are you doing?!"

Gan Yuan pulled her arm free, her gaze landing on the clothes he wore. A flicker of recognition passed through her eyes. His outfit that evening was almost identical in color and style to the one from six years ago.

She remembered clearly; that night, he had also worn that brooch.
