Gu Lichen helped Zhong Keke put on his earrings and looked at the person in front of him. He was unremarkable at first, but after looking at it for a long time, he felt more and more attractive.

"Is the makeup and styling ready?" he asked.

"There are still shoes that I haven't put on yet," the makeup artist said, while the assistant quickly took the shoes that had been prepared and prepared to put them on Zhong Keke.

"I'll do it." Gu Lichen said, taking the shoes from his assistant and squatting down in front of Zhong Keke.

"Hey, I...I can wear it myself." Zhong Keke said hurriedly.

He raised his chin slightly and looked at her, "I'll help you put it on, it will be more convenient."

At this moment, she was sitting on the chair, and he was squatting in front of her. When he lowered his head to put on her shoes, she felt like she was Cinderella, being put on the glass slippers by the prince.

But isn't it? In the eyes of others, she is just a Cinderella. She was just lucky enough to be spotted by the prince.

When both shoes were put on, Gu Lichen said, "Take a few steps and see if the shoes are tight."

Zhong Keke stood up as instructed, took two steps and said, "Fortunately, the heels are just a bit high. I'm afraid I might fall if I lose my footing."

"Then just hold my arm so that you won't fall." Gu Lichen said.

She bit her lip slightly, then softly said "hmm".

"Okay, it's almost time, let's go." He stretched out his hand and took the initiative to hold her hand.

After Zhong Keke followed Gu Lichen into the car, Gu Lichen said, "Why are your palms so sweaty and hot?"

"No, it's not hot. It's because Miss Song and her friends came in just now. I...I'm a little scared, so..." At this point, she lowered her head in embarrassment.

Gu Lichen pondered for a moment and then said, "Sorry, I made you scared."

As he spoke, he took out the handkerchief he carried with him, took her hand, and gently wiped the sweat from her palm.

The movements are so gentle.

Zhong Keke hesitated and said, "Do you think I'm useless?"

"No, I think you are much braver and stronger than I thought. Even if I didn't come over, you still made those people afraid to do anything to you." Gu Lichen said, "Next time, if someone says something wrong to you,

If you listen to me, or if I want to do something to you, just use my name."

"You...you heard everything?" She was even more embarrassed. He knew all about the scene where he dared to show off her power.

"Well, I heard it. I heard you tell them that I love you very much." He said.

"I...I was talking nonsense, don't mind." Her head lowered.

"Why would I mind? On the contrary, I hope I can fall in love with you sooner." He said, "Next time, you can also say that if anyone dares to hurt you even a little bit, I will feel sorry for him and will kill him.

I will repay you a hundred times a thousand times."

Zhong Keke was startled, raised his head suddenly, and looked at Gu Lichen blankly.

"If you say that, then I think there are really not many people who dare to touch you in Shencheng." He continued.

She only felt a heavy weight in her heart, as if she was being pressed by something. She knew that he was saying this for her own good, but... it was tantamount to further expanding the lies she had previously told to protect herself in front of others.

.

To him, this was just a white lie to protect her.

"Thank you." She said, slowly pulling her hand back from his.

He looked at the empty palms, and a strange feeling of emptiness passed through his heart.

The car stopped at the entrance to the charity dinner. When Zhong Keke and Gu Lichen got out of the car, flash lights suddenly came up, and Zhong Keke subconsciously wanted to avoid those lights.

"Don't be afraid." Gu Lichen's voice sounded in her ears, "It's just some routine shooting, but you don't have to worry, your photos will not appear on the Internet."

Her mind calmed down a little, knowing that with his ability, he could naturally do this.

"You don't have to look at the camera. If you really don't know what to look at, just look at me." His voice continued to ring in her ears.

Her mood also calmed down slightly.

"Okay...I...I know." Zhong Keke responded, looking at Gu Lichen who was standing beside her, and the original nervousness seemed to be gradually calming down.

Holding Gu Lichen's arm, Zhong Keke followed Gu Lichen's steps and walked slowly into the banquet venue.

Although some reporters and cameras could be seen inside the venue, there were not as many as outside, and those reporters, as Gu Lichen said before, did not come forward for interviews or anything.

Zhong Keke looked around. Today was indeed a night of stars. The stars who came were all big names in the industry. Everywhere he looked were first-line male and female stars. Some second-tier stars were very rare, let alone

What third or fourth line.

And she could also feel the eyes of those celebrities looking at her, as if they were sizing up something, and there was some envy, ridicule, or a look of watching a good show.

At this moment, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Song Qingyao wearing a tailored dress, and her body suddenly stiffened.

After all, the two of them met not long ago.

Song Qingyao obviously saw her at this moment, with a disdainful but calculating expression on her face, and then turned around and walked towards the other side.

"What's wrong?" Gu Lichen, who was standing next to her, seemed to notice something strange about her and asked aloud.

"Nothing." Zhong Kexiao said with a smile.

"What a surprise. Didn't you say before that you are not interested in this kind of charity banquet? I thought you wouldn't come." A voice sounded, and Zhong Keke followed the voice and saw something familiar.

The figure walked over.

That is - Ye Chongwei!

Zhong Keke recognized the other person immediately. He had met him before through Gu Lichen's introduction, and he was Li Chen's friend since childhood.

Zhong Keke looked at Gu Lichen in surprise, "You didn't plan to attend this banquet?"

Gu Lichen said calmly, "Originally I didn't plan to participate, but since you want to participate, I will accompany you to see it."

Zhong Keke was a little startled. It turned out... that he came specially to attend with her.

Ye Chongwei walked up to the two of them and took the initiative to say hello to Zhong Keke, "Keke, okay, I haven't seen you for a day, so let's take a look at you. You are really beautiful today."

"Thank you." Zhong Keke responded politely with a slightly red face.
