C56 (1/2)

Chu Xinxia's stomach had already swelled up. From afar, her small belly was especially obvious. Looking at the clothes that were sent over, she couldn't help but sigh.

He really didn't know if Jiang Hengyuan was deliberately messing with him. Not only did he not pick one that could help her cover her stomach, he even gave one that could show her waist.

Although the clothes were very suitable, one could see their stomach just by looking at it.

Chu Xinxia was a bit irritated, so she couldn't help but sigh.

He wanted to call Jiang Hengyuan and ask him what he wanted, but felt that it wasn't so good, so he could only hold it in.

There should be a lot of things to prepare for a ball. It would be too disloyal of her to throw a tantrum at him right now.

Forget it, he had no intention of hiding his pregnancy anyway. If he could see through it, what else could he do?

For the next week, no one knew what everyone was busy with. Neither Jiang Hengyuan nor Chen Dongdong came over, and even Lu Xunqian didn't send anything over. However, Chu Xin Xia's life was quite fulfilling, so for the moment she didn't have much of a reaction.

Soon it was time for the ball. Chu Xin put on a light makeup, a dress and shoes sent by the Jiang family, and said goodbye to her mother before she left. As soon as he stepped out of the door, a black Bentley drove over.

”Is it Miss Xia Chu?” An old man in a black tailcoat with a head of white hair alighted from the car. Seeing Chu Xinxia, he placed one hand on his chest and bowed.

He was so shocked that his eyes widened. Just as he was about to go over to help him up, he saw that he had stood up and was looking at him with a burning gaze.

”Yes, I'm Chu Xinxia.”

”I'm the steward of the Jiang family. I came to pick up the young lady, please.” Opening the car door, the old man lowered his head and introduced her to Chu Xin Xia.

Chu Xinxia sat on it in shock, not knowing what had happened. It was only after the car drove away that he remembered. Could this have been prepared by Jiang Hengyuan?

For some reason, she felt worried.

Soon, it was the location of the ball. The Jiang family reserved the most luxurious hotel in the city. At the door stood a group of bodyguards dressed in black, the red carpet stretching all the way to the road. A welcoming party wearing a small formal attire stood at the door as they greeted the incoming guests with a smile.

Chu Xinxia was shocked.

Standing at the door for a moment, he saw the person who entered was either rich or noble. There were also some high ranking officials in the department, as well as the CEO and supervisors of some large enterprises.

Why did he have to invite him?

Chu Xinxia was a little doubtful, but she was more worried.

After standing at the door for so long, quite a few people looked in her direction, causing her to have a rare awkward expression.

”Are you Miss Chu?” A woman in a luxurious gown walked out from the inside. When she saw Chu Xinxia, her face froze for a moment, ”Why aren't you going in yet?”

Chu Xinxia looked at him doubtfully, ”You are …”

”I'm Heng Yuan's sister, my name is Jing Qianqian.” Jing Qianqian walked up and took her arm, ”Come with me.”

When Chu Xinxia heard that it was a relative of Jiang Hengyuan's, she relaxed a bit, ”Did Jiang Hengyuan ask you to come pick me up?”

Jing Qianqian smiled mysteriously, ”You could say that.”

Chu Xinxia followed him in, attracting everyone's attention as soon as she entered the door.

Some of the doubts and some ridiculing looked towards their own stomachs.

Chu Xinxia's face turned ugly, and she suddenly felt like she had changed her mind.

Jiang Hengyuan wouldn't have brought himself to such a state. He would have been surrounded and watched like a gorilla in a zoo.
