As Gu Ye walked along the road with Rong Xuan while leading Cool Guy, reality slowly dawned on him. Only then did he belatedly realize that his fiancée was a crazily gorgeous girl.

In fact, when he started talking to her, he was stunned. It took him a while to find his voice.

The injury on her face should be completely healed so she no longer needs to wear a mask.

Cool Guy seemed to be particularly ignoring Gu Ye today. It used to listen to whatever Gu Ye said, but today with Rong Xuan there, this ‘face dog’ just wanted to cling to Rong Xuan and couldn’t even be peeled off.

Gu Ye snorted and tightened the leash in his hand to prevent Cool Guy, a dog that was no longer strictly a good guy, from getting close to Rong Xuan. It kept barking in grievance and stared at him with accusing, wet eyes. Gu Ye remained unmoved. He retracted the rope, almost holding Cool Guy directly in his arms.

Rong Xuan glanced at Gu Ye in confusion, not understanding what’s going on. She gently touched Cool Guy’s head to comfort it, and only then did it stop barking.

Gu Ye raised an eyebrow from the side and said, “Don’t pay attention to him. He usually likes to act coquettish. Just ignore him for a while.”

That’s what he said, but Rong Xuan really couldn’t be cold to Cool Guy who was acting coquettishly.

Cool Guy seemed to know who really doted on it, so it turned around and licked Rong Xuan’s hand flatteringly, earning a cold snort from Gu Ye.

Afterwards, Gu Ye simply asked the driver to come and let Cool Guy get in the car.

Unable to resist, even if Cool Guy didn’t want to leave, he could only be put into the car by the driver.

The world suddenly became peaceful and quiet.

Rong Xuan and Gu Ye didn’t stroll around for too long. They soon went to the charity dinner.

When entering, each person was given a unique number plate, which was said to be used for the raffle.

The staff issuing the number plates smiled and said to Rong Xuan and Gu Ye, “There are several small prizes in the middle of today’s event and there’s a super grand prize at the end. It’s a big surprise and no one knows what it is exactly. It’s the organizer’s way of celebrating the New Year in advance. The numbers are distributed randomly and some numbers are vacant, so there’s a possibility that no one can win the grand prize. According to previous years, the probability of no one being able to win is quite high. Anyway, I wish you good luck.”

This was the first time Rong Xuan had heard that no one might win the prize. Wasn’t this deliberately titillating people? Rong Xuan looked at the number plate in her hand, slightly doubtful, but Gu Ye looked as usual.

He explained, “This charity dinner has been held for more than ten years. Since five years ago, a super grand prize has been set up at the end. But every year, no one has got it and no one also knows what the prize is.”

It’s actually like that.

In other words, since this prize was created five years ago, no one has gotten it, so no one even knew what it was.

Gu Ye put his hands in his pockets and shrugged nonchalantly. “It’s probably a gimmick made by the organizer to create hype and increase his influence.”

Rong Xuan tilted her head, not quite agreeing with it.

She knew quite a bit about this charity dinner and was clear that the organizer was genuinely committed in doing charity and bringing warmth to children in disaster areas. She remembered that the organizer was already very old, and he himself had relied on the sponsorship of good-hearted people to get where he was today. So after he became successful, he wanted to return the favor and contribute to society.

Later in the plot, the organizer of the charity dinner becomes the female protagonist. Rong Xuan likes to jump around when reading novels so she wasn’t sure how the female protagonist did it, but she indeed have unparalleled luck. Under the leadership of the original organizer, she met many successful people and eventually became the new organizer of this influential charity dinner. Her social status and reputation rose steadily.

It could be described as, if both body and mind were content, both fame and fortune were abundant.

Rong Xuan briefly reviewed the plot and then retracted her thoughts. The female protagonist didn’t come to the charity dinner this time, but she, the female supporting character, did.

She remembered that the other Rong Xuan had become fed up with her half-sister by the end of the event and got kicked out.

Rong Xuan and Gu Ye arrived neither early nor late, and many people were already seated at the tables.

As soon as she and Gu Ye entered the venue, countless people focused their attention on them.

There was no other reason. Both of them have good looks, especially Rong Xuan. It could be said that she could conquer the world with her face.

———

On the other side, Rong Yi was excitedly making new friends. When she thought that Rong Xuan could only stay at home or elsewhere alone and was not even qualified to come while she could make more friends, it gave her an indescribable sense of pride.

Rong Xuan must be envious of her, right? Though it was pointless.

However, at this time, a stir began at the scene.

“Who’s that girl? Isn’t she too pretty?”

“What’s her name? I want to make friends.”

“Who’s that next to her? Is that Gu Ye?”

“Yes, it’s really Gu Ye. Then that girl, can she be Gu Ye’s fiancée?”

After hearing this conversation, Rong Yi’s face suddenly froze, as well as the smile on her face.

What were they talking about? Why couldn’t she understand?

Gu Ye, and his fiancée? Seriously?

She turned back extremely slow, at a pace like a turtle crawling, for she was afraid that the scene below might be too much for her to bear.

But no matter how slow her speed was, she still finished this one movement. Turning her head, she saw Rong Xuan accompanying Gu Ye.

She had done a simple styling, obviously not exactly dressed up for the occasion, but no matter how simple it was, she still appeared fresh and refined, incomparable.

Rong Yi’s face was slightly distorted by jealousy. How could she come?!

How did she get there? Did Gu Ye take the initiative to bring her?

Someone asked Rong Yi, “Hey, Rong Yi, is that really your sister over there, Gu Ye’s fiancée?”

Rong Yi clenched her teeth, barely maintaining the composure on her face as she said, “Yes.”

The crowd was immediately interested.

“Wow, you and your sister look nothing alike.”

“Yeah, just from the appearance, there’s no way to tell that you and her are actually sisters.”

“What’s her name? It must sound very nice.”

The calmness on Rong Yi’s face could hardly be maintained.

They were originally plastic friends she had just met and the friendship wasn’t deep. They wouldn’t care about her emotions at all, nor would they care about her face. They would say whatever they wanted.

Rong Yi tried her best not to get up and leave on the spot.

She kept telling herself that she couldn’t be rude in this situation, but she was really about to lose her grip. Why did Rong Xuan come?! Who was she to steal her limelight?!

———

Not long after Rong Xuan sat down, almost everyone at their table arrived. Gu Ye came on behalf of his whole family, so Father and Mother Fu didn’t show up.

Sumptuous dishes began to be served and the host also came on stage to give the opening speech.

The theme of the charity dinner was auction and the donations were the real deal. The success of this charity dinner lies in its huge influence, and the amount of donations every year was staggering.

No one paid much attention to eating. They all stared at the auction items on the stage and took notes as the preparation time was almost up. The people on their table didn’t move their chopsticks much, but Gu Ye picked up a lot of food for Rong Xuan.

“These dishes look good, try some.”

Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, Rong Xuan moved her chopsticks and took a few bites.

She was probably a bit hungry, she thought the food tasted really good.

Gu Ye added a few more dishes to her plate.

At this time, the auction items began to go up one by one.

Ji Ning opened the auction by bidding for an item and others also made offers. Regardless of the purpose of the auction, the scene was extraordinarily lively.

Rong Xuan’s attention was attracted and she focused her eyes on the stage.

Along the way, celebrities sang on stage and several raffle prizes were drawn, all of which worthless trinkets designed to liven up the atmosphere.

At the beginning of the second half, Gu Ye also joined the bidding group.

He ended up paying seven figures for a beautiful piece.

But Gu Ye felt a little regretful. Although there were many auction items today, there were none suitable for Rong Xuan. Otherwise he could bid for it and give it to her.

Rong Xuan watched items being auctioned one by one and the amount of donations displayed on the screen accumulated to an extremely high number.

If she didn’t know the organizer, she might have questioned where the money would end up, just like most people. But because she had read the novel, she knew that the money would end up being spent where it belonged, to help those in need. This was a legit charity dinner.

The time soon came to announce the final grand prize.

The host stepped down and handed the stage to the organizer, Zhang Gua, who was over 70 years old.

Zhang Gua has gray hair and a thin body, but he has a strong spirit. He smiled and said, “It’s time for the annual grand prize again. In the past five years, no one could get it. Saying that it’s a pity will be fake. Some people question whether there’s really a grand prize and I want to tell you that there is. I hope more than anyone else that someone can win this grand prize.”

For some reason, listening to these words, Rong Xuan had a slight guess in her mind about this grand prize.

However, she wasn’t 100 percent sure.

“This year is the fifteenth year of the charity dinner and I too am about to be seventy-eight years old.”

The audience burst into applause.

Zhang Gua waved his hand, signaling everyone to quiet down.

“The years have not been kind. I am grateful to some old friends who have accompanied me throughout these fifteen years. Without further ado, let’s proceed to the lottery. Please place your number plate on the table in front of you.”

Rong Xuan complied.

There were only a few hundred people at the scene, but the number plates were randomly issued from 1 to 9999.

It’s really not easy to get drawn.

Zhang Gua didn’t use machines or draw lucky balls to pick the winner. The number plates were randomly distributed by the staff and even he himself did not know what numbers were out.

He raised the microphone and called out a random number, “1224. Is there anyone?”

1224?

Rong Xuan subconsciously glanced at her front.

On the table was her number plate.

Four numbers were clearly written on it.

And it happens to be 1224.

Gu Ye also noticed it. His brows went up in surprise. “Little Bride, it’s you!”

When Gu Ye’s words fell, the others at the table naturally heard it.

A middle-aged man at the table leaned over to take a look and found that the number plate in front of Rong Xuan indeed say 1224.

He immediately raised his hand to indicate, “There’s someone this year! It’s a little girl at our table!”

The place was in uproar for a moment.

After five years, they could finally know what the so-called grand prize was!
