Chapter 173: Invitation Letter (2)
Hearing what Ke Ting just said, Gui Xiaoxu paused and then took the invitation letter. After reading it, he said, "Clear my schedule tomorrow."
"You are going to the banquet?" Ke Ting asked with a hint of surprise in his voice.
Placing the letter back down, Gui Xiaoxu stood and walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows. As he looked at the blue sky, his lips curved up slightly.
Lighting a cigarette, he replied, "There is someone I want to meet there."
When he said that, Ke Ting’s interest was piqued. Leaning on the mahogany table, he said, "Boss, I have known you for years, but this is the first time I have seen you interested in someone."
After a short moment of silence, Gui Xiaoxu replied, "She might be the only one who can save my Gui Clan."
Seeing the flicker of anticipation, hope, and interest in Gui Xiaoxu’s eyes, Ke Ting said, "I will make the preparations right away."
Gui Xiaoxu nodded. "Mhm."
After Ke Ting left, Gui Xiaoxu pulled out the jade pendant hanging around his neck. Rubbing its smooth surface, he murmured, "I hope you are the destined one, Bai Hanyun."
Exhaling another puff of smoke, Gui Xiaoxu put out his cigarette and returned to his work.
Meanwhile, Bai Hanyun and the others had just arrived home.
Just as Bai Hanyun finished washing her hands and was about to eat, her phone rang. Seeing that it was Jiang Yinqi, she answered the call.
