"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

I was kissing Harrison affectionately when a rhythmic slap sounded beside me. Like a startled bird, I subconsciously pushed Harrison away.

Being separated, I lowered my head in a panic and wiped my lips with the back of my hand, for fear that the lipstick on it would be seen by others.

Harrison put his arms around my waist and didn't care about my panicked look at all. I couldn't get rid of him at all in his arms, so I simply became a ostrich and thought that I was in his arms.

Harrison seemed very satisfied with my good manners. He kissed on my hair, and I was so scared that I didn't dare to move.

"It's all thanks to Mr. Stewart. If someone were to stand here, they would be able to flirt with their female companion without blushing

or panting."

I didn't look up at the person who spoke, but without thinking, I knew that the person must be the one who clapped just now.

Harrison stroked my hair with his hand and said casually, "Don't look down on me, don't look at me, don't listen to me. These are all basic etiquette."

"But the problem is that this is a gathering. How can I not listen to it?" The man asked.

Lying in Harrison's arms, I was very angry. I couldn't wait to go forward and argue with this person, but Harrison stopped me. He held my waist tightly and didn't move.

I have no choice. I can only continue to lie in his arms like an ostrich. I can feel that Harrison is not angry. His heartbeat and breathing frequency have always been normal.

Perhaps he felt that we would no longer refute him, but the man ignored Harrison's words and continued, "But this is a public occasion. If you don't want others to see it, you'd better stay in a relatively hidden place, okay?"

"Yang Hao, have you had enough of it?"

The man called Yang Hao laughed out loud. "It's been a few years since we last met. I thought you've forgotten who I am."

"It's not a memory loss. How can I forget it?" Harrison said.

I hid in Harrison's arms from beginning to end. I could only hear from his words that the man's name was Yang Hao, and I knew Harrison.

In the beginning, I was still a little angry. I felt that Harrison was unwilling to introduce my friends to me. But gradually, I felt an unusual meaning from their conversation. There was no intimacy between friends when they talked.

Not only did they not look like good friends, but their conversation was also faintly guarded, which made me even more confused.

"This, don't you want to introduce me?" Yang Hao suddenly said.

The next second, I felt Harrison's grip on my hand tighten. "No need. She doesn't need you to know her."

"Well, I'll go in first."

After a while, I felt that Yang Hao had left. Then I looked up from Harrison's arms and asked with grievance, "Is my waist sore?"

Harrison seemed to have just realized what was going on. He pinched my waist with a little force, and I was pinched so hard that I almost cried out.

At the door of the party hotel, I looked at the ordinary decoration outside. I felt that this should be an ordinary restaurant. It was not very unique, but when I got inside, I realized how ridiculous this idea was! Compared with the ordinary and unremarkable outside, the decoration in the hotel was completely high-end and grand! There were also people coming and going around. Their faces were painted with exquisite makeup and dressed in formal dresses.

I lowered my head and looked at the clothes on my body. This was a casual home dress that I just got up from bed...

The situation above was not the most important. What I had to say was that when I saw Harrison in a suit, I couldn't help but say, "Why don't I go back? You didn't tell me in advance after today, and I didn't prepare for it."

"There's no need to prepare," Harrison said nonchalantly.

"Look at what I'm wearing," I stopped to look at him and said seriously.

A look of surprise appeared on Harrison's face. After listening to me, he slowly looked at me and asked, "What's wrong?"

"What else do you want to know?" I was defeated by his reaction, but now there were so many people here that I couldn't do anything.

In order to avoid being pissed off by the man in front of me, I took a deep breath to calm myself down and tried to make my voice sound as flat as possible. "This is a gathering. What do you think I'm wearing? How can I get in like this?"

Harrison's knitted brows relaxed when he heard what I said. He said with a faint smile, "I thought it was a big deal. Is this a problem?"

"It's not a problem. Do you think that you can take me to the restaurant where we went at the beginning?" I said anxiously.

This was definitely not a joke. At first, it was just a meal, but now it was a hotel. It seemed to be a formal party that I had attended with Harrison before. These places needed to be dressed seriously. The makeup and dress both represented your respect for your master. Otherwise, it meant the opposite.

Besides, today's party was prepared by Aviana. I know what the relationship between Aviana and Harrison is. I can't lose face here!

After some consideration, I finally said, "I don't want to be looked down upon by others. If you don't mind, you can replace someone else to be your female companion."

Harrison frowned again. He looked at me

without saying a word. Standing opposite him, I could still feel the low pressure emanating from him.

"If I remember correctly, this gathering is prepared for Aviana. Do you think it's appropriate for me to go in now?" I asked in another way.

"Just follow me in. You don't have to worry about anything else." After saying that, Harrison took my hand and walked toward the hotel lobby.

My heart was pulled away by him unwillingly. Looking at his back, I felt even more wronged. I thought that he didn't understand what I was thinking at all, nor did he understand the uneasiness and anxiety in my heart. The moment I entered with him, I didn't even dare to look up.

If someone asked me why I didn't dare to raise my head, I could say that I was afraid of losing face.

Because I lowered my head and didn't dare to raise my head during the whole process, I naturally didn't know what kind of reaction the people around me had. After walking for a while, Harrison took me upstairs. I really wanted to ask him what he wanted to take me upstairs, but I felt that since I had come in, there was no point in asking again.

Just as I was thinking about Harrison's sudden stop, I asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm fine."

Harrison didn't look at me when he said that. He kept looking ahead, so I also turned my head.

"Chelsea, long time no see." Aviana, who was standing opposite me, greeted me with a smile.

I paused and nodded. "Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Then I turned my head and didn't say anything. My heart was in a mess.

If a person is really afraid of something, then so be it. I was worried that I would meet Aviana, but I met her as soon as I entered the door and met her face to face.
