However, before she could touch it, the door was pulled open from within.

A middle-aged man wearing a tailcoat walked out to greet them.

“CEO Ji, Madam.” The man respectfully bowed and called two pleasant-looking young ladies to help Ji Ziming and Pei Ge with their coats.

“It’s fine.
I can do it myself.” She quickly removed her overcoat, feeling slightly embarrassed inside.

Only after the young lady had left with her coat and the handbag given by Lily to match her evening gown did Pei Ge realize that her hand phone was still inside her handbag!

She opened her mouth to call the young lady who had taken her handbag, but when she noted the somber atmosphere within, she deemed that it would be inappropriate to shout and could only depressingly hold onto Ji Ziming’s arm and continue to proceed toward the banquet hall.

The two threaded on the red carpet toward the area with human voices under the melodious violin music.

As the indistinct voices became clearer, the pathway in front also grew brighter.
The brightness of the pathway did not seem to come from artificial lights but from natural lighting, instead.

With her arm hooked through his, the pair quickly passed through an archway.
In the next instant, she was struck dumb.

Bright sunlight entered her sight the moment they passed through the archway.
Besides the wall covered with golden wallpaper behind them, all the other walls, including the ceiling, were made of glass.

She, for a moment, felt out of place because of the sight.
This was especially the case when she saw that the women around would demurely cover their mouths as they laughed.

Pei Ge’s eyebrows twitched.
She was speechless. Just what did I do? Did I commit a breach of etiquette? What is it even?

Although she felt exasperated inside, she did not waste her breath voicing it out.

Alas, dreams were beautiful, but reality always differed.
