Shi Che's steps involuntarily faltered, and a shadow passed over his eyes. He remembered the first time he saw her tonight, under the dim lights. He couldn't hide her beauty as she slowly walked toward him, and everything around them seemed to instantly recede, leaving only them in the entire world.
Every frown and smile, every move she made, was filled with allure. It made one desperately want to keep her concealed, away from the prying eyes of others.
Suddenly, Shi Che's brow furrowed slightly. Ling Chuxia looked stunning in that dress—it was dazzling. So dazzling that the eyes of all the men in the room kept falling on her from time to time, admiring her beauty.
She might not have noticed, but he saw it clearly.
He had always disliked how Ling Chuxia discarded her own style to follow Mrs. Shi's orders, only wearing the clothes approved by Mrs. Shi. Such demure and ladylike attire covered her vivacity and charm completely, leaving behind a rigid image.
