After hearing Jiang Meng’s words, Gu Xiao could not react for a moment.

Even Chu An, who was originally indifferent, turned to look at Jiang Meng and Wei Shu. The expression in his eyes made Jiang Meng want to lower her head.

Gu Xiao looked at Jiang Meng and Wei Shu, who were about to die of shame and anger, and forcefully suppressed the smile on her lips.

She coughed lightly to prevent the smile in her voice from being too obvious. “What exactly are you guys thinking?”

Jiang Meng’s lips moved a few times as she softly spat out a few words. Seeing that Gu Xiao still looked puzzled, her voice became louder.

“I was too excited previously and didn’t eat lunch. I’m too hungry.”

They had never attended such a banquet before, but they had heard that food was usually not allowed at banquets. On the way here, they saw some people selling skewers. In addition, they were really hungry, so they did not resist the temptation and bought some to eat.

However, they did not expect them to make such a mistake.

After that, in order to change into a new gown, they came a little late.

When Gu Xiao heard this, she immediately understood. She looked at Jiang Meng and Wei Shu apologetically. “I’m sorry. I should have brought you along.”

At least with her providing an explanation, Jiang Meng and Wei Shu would not feel that they could not eat at the banquet.

Hearing that Gu Xiao was taking the responsibility on herself, Wei Shu, who was at the side, could not care less and hurriedly looked up.

“This has nothing to do with Xiaoxiao. We just didn’t pay attention.”

Jiang Meng hurriedly nodded. “Yes, we were careless. It has nothing to do with you. Xiaoxiao, if you say that, we would be really sorry.”

Seeing Jiang Meng and Wei Shu say this, Gu Xiao pursed her lips and did not say anything else.

Coincidentally, the a.s.sistant that Tian Xian had a.s.signed to her previously walked over. Gu Xiao immediately stopped the a.s.sistant.

“Bring them to eat something.” After Gu Xiao said to her a.s.sistant, she turned to look at Jiang Meng and Wei Shu. “I still have some things to deal with later, so I might not be able to take care of you for the time being. If there’s anything in the future, just look for him.”

When the a.s.sistant received Gu Xiao’s order, he did not decline. After nodding at Gu Xiao, he walked to Jiang Meng and Wei Shu’s side and briefly introduced himself.

Jiang Meng and Wei Shu hurriedly responded politely.

They looked at Gu Xiao again. “Then, Xiaoxiao, we’ll leave first.”

Gu Xiao nodded and watched Jiang Meng and Wei Shu leave.

“If Bai Song comes over later, I’ll wait for you downstairs.” After Jiang Meng and Wei Shu walked away, Chu An approached Gu Xiao and whispered in her ear.

Hearing this, Gu Xiao frowned slightly and looked at Chu An disapprovingly.

Chu An seemed to know what Gu Xiao wanted to say. He smiled lightly at Gu Xiao and spoke again.

“If Bai Song really wants to cooperate, then Star Brilliance Entertainment has to take it seriously. It’s best if you come forward. As for me, I don’t appear in Star Brilliance Entertainment often now. It’s better to avoid it.”

“But you also have shares in Star Brilliance Entertainment. If you want to, there’s nothing you can’t do. There’s no need to avoid it.”

To Gu Xiao, Star Brilliance Entertainment would always be established by her and Chu An. Chu An would always have a share in Star Brilliance Entertainment.

Chu An looked at Gu Xiao, who seemed to be thinking for him, and frowning. He couldn’t help but feel happy.

He glanced around and saw that not many people were paying attention to him. He turned slightly to block Gu Xiao’s figure. He lowered his head and planted a kiss on Gu Xiao’s lips.

“I know how much you value me, but I’ll do what I have to do.”

Gu Xiao pursed her lips. The warmth that Chu An had just dropped seemed to linger on her lips.

“If you’re sure.” Since Chu An was unwilling, she wouldn’t go against his wishes and let him do something he didn’t like.

Chu An lowered his eyes with a rich smile. “Of course I’m sure.”

Seeing that Chu An had seen this, Gu Xiao didn’t say anything else about letting Chu An discuss cooperation with her.

The two of them had just finished discussing when their target, Bai Song, finally arrived at the venue.

Bai Song’s arrival quickly attracted the attention of the rest of the people in the venue. Everyone’s gazes vaguely landed on Bai Song, wanting to see what Bai Song planned to do next.
