Chapter 1025: Chapter 1030: It’s a Matter between Her and Him3 Chapter 1025: Chapter 1030: It’s a Matter between Her and Him3 Beiming Han slowly stood up, his hands loose in his trouser pockets, his eyes focused on her every movement. After watching her for a second, then two, then five, then ten, Gu Qingxin began feeling uncomfortable under his unyielding gaze. She awkwardly looked down, wondering if something was wrong with her.

Truth be told, she didn’t feel at ease in this outfit. It exposed too much of her back and decolletage. She had never worn something so revealing before.

But the stylist insisted she should wear it, claiming that the dress perfectly matched her demeanor.

After looking in the mirror, she thought it looked quite pretty.

Gu Qingxin saw him silently staring at her and felt embarrassed, so she slightly raised her hand and covered her chest.

Ever since she saved Tang Rongling from the fire, Beiming Han had been cold towards her, presumably still resentful.

“Everyone leave!” Beiming Han commanded in a cold voice.

“…”

Everyone quickly left the room, leaving only the two of them.

Feeling awkward, Gu Qingxin took a couple of steps back and nervously asked, “Is it not good-looking?”

“…”

Beiming Han was frustrated. How could it not look good? If she appeared like this, she would once again stun the entire room.

He didn’t like this. Her beauty should be only for his eyes.

But on the other hand, he had his own selfish desires. He wanted others to know she belonged to him!

This was a kind of contradictory emotion.

This little girl always managed to shatter all of his proudly held principles.

When had Beiming Han ever been so conflicted over something?

Beiming Han walked to the clothing rack behind her, sliding his fingers over a row of clothes. In the end, he chose a more conservative black dress for her to wear instead.

He would absolutely not allow her to appear in front of everyone dressed like this. All her charm should solely belong to him.

Gu Qingxin took off the pink dress and put on the black one. This design was more conservative with an off-shoulder cut, exposing one shoulder. It was still quite eye-catching, but at least it was not as dazzling as the previous one.

Beiming Han noticed her lingering gaze on the pink dress and ordered someone to wrap it up and send it to North Garden.

“What? Why buy that? I won’t wear it!” Gu Qingxin turned to look at him, thinking it was a waste of money.

“I like it,” Beiming Han responded indifferently.

Gu Qingxin, “…”

“Wear it for me when you’re home,” Beiming Han added.

“…”

Beiming Han passed her a coat to ward off the cold. As they were leaving, they encountered Rong Qianxia who was also getting her makeup done.

Rong Qianxia noticed them holding hands and her gaze lingered on their intertwined fingers just a second.

“Young Master Han, Miss Gu, what a coincidence,” said Rong Qianxia, wearing a cream-colored silk evening dress that showed off her figure unabashedly. She wore only a few simple pieces of jewelry. Compared to other rich ladies, she was evidently low-key.

Apparently, she was also heading to the President’s banquet.

Beiming Han simply nodded at her, while Gu Qingxin politely greeted her, “Hello, Miss Rong.”

“You’re also heading to the President’s house, aren’t you? We’re on the same route.” Rong Qianxia added with a smile.

Beiming Han, clearly uninterested in further conversation, pulled Gu Qingxin out of the styling room, carefully protecting the girl by his side the whole time.
