"Director Leng, let's talk on the side." At this time, Director Chen didn't know if it was intentional or not, but he wanted to leave Leng Lian City. As they were discussing things, it was inconvenient for outsiders to interfere, so Gu Ruoyun could only stay where she was.

An Lan, Gu Ruoqing, and He Luo stood there looking at each other. He wanted to take a step forward, but An Lan grabbed his arm, holding him back.

"Miss Gu Ruoqing, it's my honor to meet you tonight." He Luo raised his eyebrows and laughed softly. His laughter was filled with affection.

"I …" "You guys …" Gu Ruoyun wanted to say something, but realized that someone was walking towards them, so she stopped herself in her tracks.

"How about we dance?" When He Luo saw Gu Ruoyun, his expression didn't look too good. He stepped forward and stretched out his hand, trying to dance with her.

As for An Lan, she grabbed onto his hand without letting go. She bent her head and whispered into He Luo's ear, "Right now, it's not the time yet. The subordinates of Leng Lian City have been keeping an eye on you. If you come into contact with Gu Ruoyun, it will definitely lead to a misunderstanding."

"This …" While An Lan was pestering He Luo, He Luo was even more worried about Gu Ruoqing. He wondered if she had some motive since she was brought here by Leng Lian City.

He was even more worried about Gu Ruoyun getting involved. Of course, in his heart, Gu Ruoyun was completely different from An Lan. He had never worried about An Lan's safety, but he had no choice but to care about Gu Ruoyun.

"Miss Gu Ruoqing, let's find a place to sit and chat. How about it?" As An Lan spoke, she walked to the side and grabbed onto Gu Ruoyun's small hand. The two of them seemed to be chatting intimately.

However, An Lan didn't know that Leng Lian City had already investigated her and Gu Ruoyun's background, and had even seen the photos of them going in and out of the city together.

"He, he knows we know each other." Gu Ruoyun said to An Lan in a low voice. If he hadn't shown her the photo before, she wouldn't have been so worried tonight.

Right now, her eyelids were constantly twitching, as if something was going to happen in a moment. The more it was like this, the more she was worried about An Lan and He Luo. Although they were powerful, they didn't know that tonight, there were women from Leng Lian City everywhere.

"What?" An Lanruo's big watery eyes slightly moved. She raised her head and looked in every direction of Leng Lian City with hesitation, only to discover that there was no trace of Leng Lian City at some point.

"Tonight, leave as soon as possible. No matter what happens, you must find an excuse to leave as soon as possible." He Luo walked to Gu Ruoyun's side and lowered his head. He gently caressed Gu Ruoyun's hair as he said in a deep voice.

"Then what will you do?" Gu Ruoyun had a face full of puzzlement. Why didn't he let her participate? How could she leave alone?

An Lan and He Luo were all her friends. How could she watch them fall into the hands of Leng Lian City if something happened to them?

They didn't understand Leng Lian City, but after staying by his side for so long, Gu Ruoyun knew of his methods, so he would definitely find a way to make you feel worse than death.

"He knows me?" At this time, An Lan ignored Gu Ruoyun's disobedience and pulled her to a quiet corner to sit down. Her clear eyes coldly watched the actions of the people at the banquet as she conversed with Gu Ruoyun.

Gu Ruoyun nodded and looked at An Lan uneasily, "He has a picture of me, you, together with Jadesnow. I suspect that he knows more than me."

An Lan slightly smiled. So that's all? She had thought that Leng Liancheng knew something.

"Don't you look very similar to Lin Yishan's mistress? He has also doubted your identity, right? " An Lan laughed softly. In her eyes, Gu Ruoyun's fear was unnecessary.

"How do you know?" He did say that, but is it really so? " Gu Ruoyun didn't understand. Why did she say that? An Lan knew about this as well. Why was she always the last one to know about it?

"What is your plan for tonight? "Can I help?" Seeing that An Lan didn't say anything, Gu Ruoyun nervously walked over to An Lan's side and asked in a low voice.

An Lan raised her eyes and glanced at Gu Ruoyun. She pulled at the hem of her bright red dress, picked up a glass of red wine, and took a sip. Her slender hand gently stroked the edge of the wine cup a few times.

"It's good that you're staying by Leng Lian City's side. The other matters have nothing to do with you." An Lan spoke softly, her voice like a needle piercing the heart of Guruqing.

She lightly shook her hands and gave a helpless smile. This was the most helpless moment for Gu Ruoyun. An Lan had said that it had nothing to do with her, but how could she just abandon them and ignore them?

"An Lan, I don't want anything to happen to you." Gu Ruoyun clearly knew that her ability was inferior to theirs. She even felt that she was very useless. In the eyes of An Lan, was she just a little girl forever?

"The leader will also be here tonight. You'd better stay by Leng Lian City's side and see if he has any other actions." An Lan let out a long sigh. She looked at Gu Ruoyun's face and realized that she was indeed a little selfish.

It was unknown when Gu Ruoyun had stopped treating Gu Ruoyun as one of her own. If it had been before, she would have definitely told Gu Ruoyun. Unfortunately, she didn't do so now.

Tonight, He Luo's actions told her that An Lan was nothing in Gu Ruoqing's presence, especially when He Luo was concerned about her. This made An Lan feel extremely uncomfortable.

There had to be a place for her in the organization. She wanted to be the center of attention as well, not because of Gu Ruoyun. She was nothing.

In the past, she was always stronger than Gu Ruoyun. But now, Bi Xue was no longer around. In that case, only she, An Lan, was stronger than Gu Ruoyun. Gu Ruoyun would forever be just a stumbling block.

"Alright, I understand." As she spoke, she saw He Luo walking towards her. She and An Lan looked at each other, then the two of them stood up from the sofa.

At this moment, a tall figure walked over and held onto Gu Ruoyun's arm. "Gu Ruoyun, why are you here as well?"

Gu Ruoyun glanced back and saw that Nangong Lan was wearing a black dress with strong makeup on her face. From the looks of it, she didn't seem like a nineteen year old girl. Her mature appearance made her even more mature.

"I was looking for you." Gu Ruoyun faintly smiled. She exchanged a glance with An Lan before she and Nangong Lan headed off in another direction.

Many famous people had puzzled faces. Many of them knew Nangong Lan. She was the so-called modern unruly princess. She was famous in A City.

Furthermore, she liked Leng Lian City, which was something that everyone knew about. However, seeing her chatting and laughing with Gu Ruoyun made people even more suspicious. Did Nangong Lan's taste change? Or did Gu Ruoqing's methods become too powerful?

"Have you thought about what we agreed upon last time?" She picked up a glass of red wine and took a sip. Leaning against the bar, she looked at Gu Ruoyun with disdain.

Previously, she had discussed with Gu Ruoyun that as long as she could help her move into the Leng Residence, she would help Gu Ruoyun with a matter.
