Chapter 550: Xiang Li’s Gift

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xiang Li’s gaze landed on the servant beside her. The servant tactfully handed her a plate. There was an exquisite bag on the plate. She smiled and took the bag and stuffed it into Gu Man’s hand.

Before Gu Man could refuse, Xiang Li quickly said, “Manman, Old Master liked the gift you gave last time very much and specially asked me to send you a gift to return the favor. It’s not anything expensive. If you don’t accept it, Old Master will blame me.”

Since Xiang Li had already said so, it would seem pretentious if Gu Man refused again. She accepted it without hesitation. “Thank you.”

Seeing Gu Man accept the gift, Xiang Li nodded in satisfaction. “Since I’ve already completed my mission, 1 won’t continue to disturb the two of you. Continue chatting here. 1 still have to work on the banquet.”

“There’s no need for you to run around for her.” Xiang Yin looked at the traces of fatigue on Xiang Li’s face from being too busy.

“We let her down. Besides, this is nothing. It’s just a small matter.” Xiang Li knew who Xiang Yin was talking about and did not take his words to heart. After saying goodbye to the two of them, she rushed to the center of the banquet hall.

The banquet continued, but because the female lead was not present, the banquet quickly came to an end.

Gu Man and Xiang Yin also left the banquet hall when the banquet was about to end.

The cold night wind blew on Gu Man’s face, and the heat on her body finally subsided a lot. The high heels on her feet only made a soft sound.

Gu Man’s etiquette was flawless. It was as if she could maintain a noble posture no matter what.

Xiang Yin was interested in her etiquette. “You always say that your etiquette is self-learned, but those young ladies who have specially taken etiquette classes can’t compare to your etiquette.”

“Maybe it’s because of talent.” Gu Man was not lying because at that time, no one would restrict her etiquette, and she was only particular about casualness.

Xiang Yin couldn’t help but laugh when he heard this boast, but he didn’t continue asking. Instead, he mentioned what had happened previously. “You went missing for so long last week. When I went to your school, 1 realized that you had already applied for leave in the afternoon. You haven’t explained this to me, right?”

Every time Xiang Yin asked on his phone, Gu Man would selectively ignore it. It was not easy for him to get such a chance to ask face-to-face, so he naturally would not let it go.

Gu Man usually never went missing. Since she did, something must have happened that afternoon that made her take leave and lose contact for so long.

Hearing this, Gu Man rubbed the space between her eyebrows. She knew that she could not fool her anymore, so she could only say, “I encountered some situation at that time and went to help my friend.”

Her explanation was very simple, but Xiang Yin was not satisfied with this answer. He was more worried that Gu Man had encountered something or been hurt when she disappeared.

At the thought of this, Xiang Yin’s heart involuntarily skipped a beat, his eyes filled with worry.

“I’m fine,” Gu Man said when she saw the worry in Xiang Yin’s eyes.

Xiang Yin frowned, but looking at Gu Man’s gaze, he knew that he could not get anything out of her. He could only be forced to let go. He reached out and rubbed Gu Man’s head. “Remember, if you encounter anything next time, you have to tell me. Don’t bear the responsibility yourself.”

Gu Man nodded in agreement. It was obvious that she did not listen to Xiang Yin’s words. Xiang Yin gritted his teeth in anger but was helpless.

After Gu Man was sent home by Xiang Yin, she originally planned to rest well, but she bumped into her grandmother and Huang Jun, who were sitting in the hall. The two of them sized up the accessories on her body.

Grandma and Huang Jun were stunned.

“Manman, did you go to look for Xiang Yin?” The surprise in her grandmother’s eyes turned into sternness with a disapproving expression..
