《Sweetness Drowning: Callous Boss and Awkward Wife》C58. Invitation

Proofread by Peter Gong
Lin Miaoxin shows a very faint smile on her face. She looks straight into Gu Yi's eyes without fear, and only asks one question.
"Mr. Gu, since you already have someone in mind, why bother asking me?" After saying this, Lin Miaoxin walks out of the office without waiting for Gu Yi to answer.
Gu Yi looks at her slim back, and suddenly realizes that she no longer has the childishness. But he doesn’t know when she becomes like this.
His eyes retreat to the piece of paper in front of him. Gu Yi's eyes stay on those two names for a long while. The look in his eyes is deep, and no one can tell what he is thinking about.
This affair has not been resolved yet when the secretary sends in an invitation of a wine party.
Usually, Gu Yi does not participate in this kind of event. But this time it is special. It is sponsored by the government. Even if Gu Yi does not want to go, he should show his respect by joining in.
"What time is the wine party?" Gu Yi asks when looking down at the file.
His secretary opens the invitation and reads it carefully: "Tomorrow at 5:30 pm, female companion is required to bring."
Gu Yi stops writing when he hears the word "companion". He looks up and asks, "A woman companion is required?"
His secretary nods.
"Pass it to me. I want to take a look." Gu Yi reaches out and his secretary passes the invitation to him. It does clearly say that he should bring a female companion. In the past, he always took Lin Miaoxin. But this time, he thinks there is a better person to bring.
When Gu Yi calls over, Yu Fei is still asleep. She picks up the phone in a daze and hears Gu Yi's voice. Several pictures of last night flash in her brain. Yu Fei opens her eyes quickly. She is totally awake right now.
"Gu Yi? What's the matter?" Yu Fei thinks he finds out that she is at home. And he calls to ask for a reason. She thinks hard about the wording when Gu Yi tells her about another thing that is totally out of her mind.

"I'm going to a wine party tomorrow night, and I need to bring a female companion. Do I have the honor to invite you, Miss Yu Fei, to come with me?"
Yu Fei's first reaction is to refuse. Her marriage to Ko Chen is well-known. If she attends the party with Gu Yi, she doesn’t know what others would think about the relationship among the three of them. She doesn’t want it to be too complicate.
As she is about to refuse, Gu Yi has already seen through her mind and says, "You and Ko Chen are going to divorce. It’s just a matter of signing a paper. Why do you care about it so much? What's more, I received this invitation. It is likely that Ko Chen has already received the invitation letter. He will also bring his female companion. "
Gu Yi's words are not unreasonable. Now she has nothing to do with Ko Chen. Since he is so heartless, why should she give him face?
Gu Yi's constant persuasion makes her feel that if she refuses again, she would be a bit arrogant. So she says yes.
Gu Yi's goal is achieved, and he tells her something important before hanging up with satisfaction.
“Ko Chen, what expression will be on your face when you see Yu Fei is with me?"
As soon as he thinks of that picture, Gu Yi is satisfied in his heart. The corners of his mouth rise unconsciously, and his smile couldn't stop.
Ko Chen did receive an invitation letter. When he sees the request of bringing a female companion, his head aches for two seconds. If it had been in the past, he wouldn’t have to worry about this problem at all. It is a little embarrassing to participate in such activities again since he and Yu Fei are separated.
The assistant sees Ko Chen’s disappointed expression. He hesitates for two seconds and asks, "Mr. Ko, do you want me to contact Miss Lan?"
The "Ms. Blue" in the assistant's words is the most popular actress at this moment. Lan Xiaoxiao is not only beautiful, but also good at acting and singing. What is even more commendable is that she has zero scandal in the entertainment industry.

Other people don't know little about the fact that Lan Xiaoxiao and Ko Hua have the same teacher. Because of this, Ko Chen secretly helps Lan Xiaoxiao by giving her a lot of resources and blocking those irrelevant news which is only made up for high popularity.
Ko Chen waves his hand with a tired look on his face: “No."
If Lan Xiaoxiao were there with him, those paparazzi would be very happy. And they would make up a lot of fake news about them. Although Ko's Company is powerful enough to suppress the news full of gimmicks, Ko Chen still thinks they have no need to do that.
Waving the assistant away, Ko Chen takes out his cell phone and dials a number.
When Ko Chen calls over, Yu Yu just woke up. She is sitting on the bed, playing a game. It is the latest mobile game. She is hitting a critical moment when the call interrupts her. She swears. But when she figures out it is Ko Chen who calls, the expression on her face changes immediately.
It's Ko Chen’s call! This is the first time Ko Chen has called her with his private number!
Yu Yu is ecstatic. She holds down her beating heart and barely calms herself down. She presses the yes button, and softens her voice: "Hey, you."
Ko Chen's scalp is numb for a while when he hears the affected voice. He bears it because he thinks about tomorrow. He tells her why he calls her.
Yu Yu is so excited when she hears that he is going to take her to the party. She is so surprised that she cannot even speak. The words she says are a lot of yes.
Ko Chen doesn’t want to talk much with her. After hearing her yes, he hangs up the phone.
Back from the call interface to the game interface, Yu Yu sees that a big failure on the screen is flashing. But it can't affect Yu Yu's good mood at all.
She quits the game, jumps out of bed and opens the closet, ready to pick the best-looking dress. She wants to stand out when she is with Ko Chen tomorrow.
Yu Yu looks at every dress in her wardrobe. She feels that none of them is eye-catching. She thinks about it, calls Wang Feng and tells her the good news.
Wang Feng went through the incident this morning and is in a bad mood. So, she runs out to play Mahjong. She does not expect to hear such good news on the phone. She is so excited that she quits playing Mahjong immediately.
"Of course, I'm going to buy you some new clothes! Go, Mom will go with you!"
Wang Feng hangs up the phone and tries to leave. The other three ladies are unwilling. "Mrs. Yu, it’s not good that you want to run after losing the game? It's a bit fake. "
"Who has the mood to act with you!" Wang Feng looks at them in disdain, almost looking down on them with her nostrils. "My daughter is going to be Ko's younger mistress soon. I don’t give a shit to this amount of money?"
After saying that, she takes out a pile of cash from the bag and throws it on the table without counting, and she leaves without looking back.
When Yu Yu takes a taxi to the gate of the mall, Wang Feng is already waiting for her. When she sees Yu Yu, she comes to her and gives a big smile: "It is indeed my daughter, and I know that Ko Chen can’t absolutely flee away from you. He can't get out of your palms! "
