There was a gasping sound all around, and Zhong Keke was a little stunned.

At this moment, she was held in Gu Lichen's arms, and she heard Gu Lichen's voice whispering in her ears, "Sorry, I'm late."

It was just a short sentence, but somehow it made Zhong Keke's eyes wet.

Even though she looked like she had no stage fright when facing Song Qingyao and those ladies just now, she was the only one who understood how nervous she was just now. She even felt like she was on a battlefield. She was afraid that she would not be merciful.

, they will be killed by the opponent until nothing is left.

Until this moment, when she was protected by Gu Lichen in his arms, and listening to him say these short words, her nervousness finally dissipated little by little.

Gu Lichen turned his head and stared coldly at Song Qingyao and the others, "Song Qingyao, do you have any advice for my girlfriend?" The cold voice, with a hint of anger, made Song Qingyao panic immediately.

.

"Li Chen, just now...just now was just a misunderstanding. I...I just..."

"Misunderstanding?" Gu Lichen snapped his fingers coldly and asked the waiter carrying the wine to come to him. Then he picked up a glass of red wine from the other person's tray and put it into Song Qingyao's hand, "

Tell me, are you stupid or am I stupid?"

Song Qingyao's expression changed. Li Chen's move... meant that she wanted to hurt herself?

But in public, if she really did this, it would be a big loss.

Song Qingyao glanced at Ye Chongwei who was standing next to Gu Lichen, hoping that he would help her express his love.

Ye Chongwei received the signal. After hesitating for a moment, he cleared his throat and said, "Li Chen, why don't you let Qingyao and Keke accompany you? That's all..."

But before Ye Chongwei finished speaking, he was interrupted by Gu Lichen, "Cocago is my girlfriend. Do you think she is going to splash cocoa on her drink, or the Gu family?"

As soon as these words came out, Ye Chongwei stopped complaining. Since Gu Lichen had brought out all the Gu family, it meant that Li Chen really wanted to stand up for Zhong Keke and was not just pretending.

Thinking of this, a dark color flashed across Ye Chongwei's eyes. It seemed that Li Chen was more serious about Zhong Keke than he thought.

Song Qingyao gritted her teeth and stared at Zhong Keke who was protected by Gu Lichen. After a while, she finally said, "Miss Zhong, it was my fault just now, I'm sorry!"

After saying that, she poured the entire glass of red wine on her dress, threw down the glass, and turned around to leave.

With things like this, how could she have the nerve to stay at the banquet? She just wished she could leave as soon as possible.

But in her heart, she hated Zhong Keke even more, and felt that the humiliation she suffered today was all due to Zhong Keke.

After Song Qingyao left, Zhong Keke hurriedly asked Gu Lichen, "There are drinks on your suit. Let me wipe it for you."

"No need to bother." Gu Lichen said, taking off his suit and placing it casually on his arm.

Underneath him is a suit vest, paired with a white shirt and a dark tie. At this moment, he looks somewhat casual and elegant.

"Is it okay that you did that to...her just now?" Zhong Keke said.

"You are my girlfriend. If she treats you like this, I will naturally retaliate. Well, I will take you to meet some people, which may be helpful to your future development." Gu Lichen said.

Even if they break up in the future, he hopes this woman can live a good life.

It seemed like this was the first time that he was thinking about his girlfriend's future.

Most of the people Gu Lichen and Zhong Keke knew were the heads of some cultural enterprises and some producers.

Naturally, after the other party knew that she was the author of the comic, he looked at her with a bit of surprise.

It's like I didn't expect that the prince in the entertainment industry would find a young cartoonist as his girlfriend.

Suddenly, there was some commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall.

Gu Lichen turned around to look, and then his body froze. Zhong Keke, who was holding his arm, was naturally the first to notice something strange about him.

Zhong Keke looked up and saw two figures walking into the banquet hall. Many people were walking towards them.

And those two people are - Yi Jinli and Ling Yiran.

Ling Yiran had met Zhong Keke by chance in the mall before, and Yi Jinli... Zhong Keke later found photos of him on the Internet.

They are coming, and Li Chen...

She subconsciously raised her head and looked at Gu Lichen, but all she saw was that Gu Lichen's eyes were still looking straight in the direction of Ling Yiran.

Yi Jinli, who was over there, seemed to be aware of it, and raised his head and looked over, followed immediately by Ling Yiran's gaze.

Suddenly, the four people's eyes seemed to be looking at each other from afar under this situation.

"Coco, let's go say hello." A moment later, Gu Lichen's voice sounded in her ears. However, this voice sounded vaguely nervous.

nervous?

Zhong Keke was stunned, would Gu Lichen be nervous too?

But then, she could feel that the arm she was holding was in a stiff state since Ling Yiran appeared.

He is... really nervous.

Biting her lip slightly, Zhong Keke's hand slipped from Gu Lichen's arm to his hand, then spread her fingers and took the initiative to clasp his hand.

He paused, turned his head slightly, and looked at her in surprise.

Zhong Keke said seriously, "Li Chen, I am your girlfriend."

Just such a sentence made Gu Lichen feel that the tension in his heart seemed to fade away.

It's really incredible. He originally thought that she was the one who was scared, uneasy or nervous, but now, it's her who is encouraging him.

"Yes, you are my girlfriend." He murmured, then raised his steps again, leading her to Ling Yiran and Yi Jinli.

"What a coincidence, I met you." Gu Lichen said.

"It's quite a coincidence." Yi Jinli said, his eyes falling on Zhong Keke, looking at him a little.

"This is my girlfriend Zhong Keke." Gu Lichen introduced, and then said to Zhong Keke, "This is Yi Jinli, the chairman of Yi Group, and the only person next to him is his wife Ling Yiran."

"Hello, Mr. Yi." Zhong Keke said generously, and then looked at Ling Yiran, "Hello, Mrs. Yi, we met once, but I didn't expect to meet again."
