On the other side of the venue.
In order to be with Gu Tingyu, Li Yan attended the charity gala in a low-key manner.
But she is stunningly beautiful, and even when she dresses casually and modestly, her face doesn't allow her to be understated.
Since Li Yan came alone without a male companion, many men were eager to strike up a conversation with her.
The men feigned arrogance and said, "Beautiful lady, would you like to have the honor of inviting you to join me in the auction tonight?"
Li Yan gave a forced smile: "Sorry, I already have an appointment."
She didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble. Although she was a little unhappy about being pestered by these men, she still maintained an elegant and composed smile and refused their requests one by one.
Li Yan had rejected several men in a row, and she was running out of patience.
She glanced around and spotted a secluded corner, then lifted her skirt and walked there.
But Li Yan encountered a man she knew to the core, yet who felt somewhat unfamiliar to her.
Li Yan stared blankly at Duan Yujing.
She looks almost exactly like her husband, Gu Yujing!
The other person seemed to sense her gaze and instinctively turned around.
The moment their eyes met, it was as if an electric current passed through them; they both felt an instant connection.
However, the calmness and composure in Duan Yujing's eyes were unfamiliar to Li Yan.
Li Yan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Gu Yujing would never look at her like that, like he was looking at a stranger.
Noticing the subtle change in Li Yan's emotions, Duan Yujing called out with slight concern, "Miss Li Yan?"
Hearing her name called out by Duan Yujing, Li Yan asked in confusion, "You know me?"
Li Yan and Duan Yujing hadn't met many times, and they didn't communicate much either.
She was a little surprised that Duan Yujing actually knew her name.
Duan Yujing's handsome face held a gentle smile as he said in a joking tone, "I still vividly remember the time at the hospital when you mistook Xie Changyan for someone else."
His approachable tone immediately brought him and Li Yan closer together.
Duan Yujing brought up the incident where Li Yan mistook Xie Changyan for her husband. Li Yan's fair cheeks flushed slightly, and she explained rather embarrassedly, "Well, I was hospitalized at the time and was not fully conscious, so I mistook him for someone else."
Duan Yujing's lips curled slightly, his eyes sparkling with curiosity and admiration as he gazed at Li Yan.
He suddenly asked, "Does Xie Changyan look a lot like your husband?"
Li Yan looked at Duan Yujing's face and slowly shook her head: "Actually, if you look closely, it doesn't look that much like him."
If we're talking about similarities, the only ones who look alike are Duan Yujing and Gu Yujing.
Looking at Duan Yujing's face, if he didn't seem like Gu Yujing to her, Li Yan probably would have pounced on him long ago.
Fortunately, Li Yan restrained her impulse and calmly began a conversation with Duan Yujing.
Li Yan's demeanor was gentle and elegant, like a spring breeze.
Therefore, Duan Yujing felt very comfortable in his interactions with Li Yan.
His eyes were deep and mysterious, like stars in the night sky, drawing Li Yan's attention.
They got along very well, chatting about everything from charity auctions to interesting things in their lives, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
However, Gu Tingyu soon spotted the two chatting happily.
Gu Tingyu was quite displeased to see Li Yan and Duan Yujing chatting so happily.
He instinctively strode over, his eyes filled with hostility: "Duan Yujing, stay away from Li Yan! Don't think I don't know what you're up to!"
