Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart

Mu Lee suddenly had the impulse to cry again. After all these years of suffering, with someone suddenly standing out to treat her well, she didn't know how to face this kind of warmth.

It was as if Cinderella had suddenly turned into a little princess, causing her to feel an inexplicable sense of nervousness and helplessness.

"Don't cry anymore. Remember your status. No matter where you go in the future, don't let anyone bully you. With me here, you don't have to be afraid of anything."

Hearing Gu Tingchen's words, Mu Lee suddenly laughed, and her mood improved a lot.

"How can I be as miserable as you say?" Mu Family did not bully her every day. They would only treat her like a snake and scorpion when there were benefits involved.

"Hurry up and eat. The makeup artist is already prepared."

"A makeup artist?" Mu Lee was stunned, you need to put on makeup for dinner? I've never heard of it!

"Come with me to a charity auction later." Gu Tingchen's tone was flat, as though this kind of occasion was commonplace.

Mu Lee knew that this was a charity auction, and had even participated in it once when she was young. In her memories, besides showing love, most of the people she knew were people who would flatter and flatter others when they saw their superiors.

She didn't like it. Everyone wore masks.

Seeing that her face was slightly gloomy, Gu Tingchen asked, "Don't you like it?"

"No." Mu Lee shook his head: "It's just that, I haven't attended an official venue in a long time, I'm afraid I'll lose face for you."

Since the day she had left the Mu Family, she was no longer a child of the Wealthy Class, and had completely broken off from the life of a noble.

Now, her body no longer had the noble aura from back then. Even when she stood together with Mu Yan, she would feel shabby and out of place.

She was truly afraid that someone would mock her and embarrass Gu Tingchen again.

Gu Tingchen was surprised, he had thought that she would be very happy to be able to attend this kind of occasion, he didn't expect that the first thing she thought of was not wanting to lose face for himself.

"We'll go together." He looked at her steadily, giving her a kind of encouragement.

He was not worried, but Mu Lee had nothing to worry about, she welcomed his gaze and focused, "Alright, let's go together."

After dinner, Yan Shu brought the makeup artist in.

Looking at the luxurious jewelry in front of her, she couldn't move her eyes away. These famous brands that were once very familiar with each other were now unfamiliar to him. He never thought that there would be a day where he would wear them again.

Gu Tingchen did not need that many shapes, he only needed to change his clothes. After all, Gu Tingchen's face was handsome and bright, and there were many modifications on it.

When Mu Lee came out, although the clothes on her body were pretty, it was too lustful.

She kept feeling that it was awkward to wear all these, so she looked at Gu Tingchen: "Tingchen, can I wear it a little more simply? After all, this is a charity auction, if you wear it to such an extent, it would attract a lot of discussion."

Gu Tingchen smiled with a profound meaning: "Mhm." In the next second, his gaze fell on the makeup artist.

"Second Young Master, I will change the young mistress's outfit right now. She has a good figure, so she should be able to wear anything."

Half an hour later, Mu Lee walked out again, as if she had changed.

The pure white dress looked like a fairy that had fallen into the mortal world. It was unadorned and only had a pearl necklace around her neck. Her hair was also tied up into a ball and placed on her head.

He looked like a completely different person.

"That's right." 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m

Gu Tingchen nodded and the makeup artist heaved a sigh of relief, "Second Young Master, I will be leaving first."

Yan Shu saw the makeup artist off and returned to the living room. There was not much time left, the car was already waiting at the door, "Young Master, let's go."

Mu Lee lowered her head, her face slightly red, slightly embarrassed. However, she was still very happy to receive Gu Tingchen's praise.

At the party, Gu Tingchen pulled Mu Lee's hand and walked in. Mu Lee was still more or less nervous, her hands were drenched in sweat.

"Don't be afraid." Gu Tingchen held her hand tightly.

Mu Lee took a deep breath to calm herself down. With him by her side, no matter how nervous she was, she could quickly calm down.

Most of the people in the hall had already arrived. They greeted each other and grouped in groups of three or five.

When Gu Tingchen and Mu Lee walked into the hall, everyone looked over.

The two of them had recently created quite a commotion, and a piece of trash had married an unfavoured daughter, which could be considered a perfect match. Moreover, they even showed off their might at the Mu Family gate.

No one came over to greet him, so Gu Tingchen didn't mind at all and dragged Mu Lee forward.

The few people sitting in the dark heard the silence in the hall and looked over as well. The expressions in their eyes were different.

Chu Zheng laughed, and drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp, "Look, who has come?"

"You don't need to look to know." Ling Xiao picked up the cup, took a sip, and put it down again, "Other than Gu Tingchen, who else can make you so excited?"

The rest of them laughed.

Chu Zheng stood up, his gaze still looking outside, "Gu Tingchen is here, let's go out and join in the fun."

"Young master Chu, he just arrived. You have to leave and accompany him for another drink!" The lady by Chu Zheng's side held Chu Zheng's arm, and stuck his entire body onto him.

"That's right, what's so good about that cripple from Mu Family?" The other woman spoke up. 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐oｍ

The best way for them to accompany the drinkers was to rely on the rich second generation. Since they had the opportunity to serve the young masters of the Wealthy Class, how could they let go of such a good opportunity?
