Looking at Mu Lele beside him, Li Xiao's brows furrowed even more when he thought of the dangerous character Smith who had interacted with her before.2
That person didn't know why, but he seemed to be especially interested in Mu Lele.
It was also possible that her dragon shaped jade pendant had been taken by Smith the day he saved her.
However, he did not know why Smith was interested in that piece of dragon-shaped jade.
"Xiao, why aren't you saying anything?" Seeing his serious expression, Mu Lele remained silent for a long time. She felt a little apprehensive in her heart.
Li Xiao came back to his senses, tidying up her hair and said, "It's nothing, we just have a new partner that wants to join our business. Let's go in quickly!"
Mu Lele didn't suspect anything as she followed him into the banquet hall.
At this moment, Madam Gao was enthusiastically accepting gifts from everyone. The atmosphere in the banquet hall was blissful and harmonious, much better than when they were fighting before.
At this moment, many people saw Mu Lele and Li Xiao walking over together. They couldn't help but take a step back to make a path for them.
The fact that the president of ARES threw a bunch of women into the swimming pool to avenge his girlfriend has spread throughout the party.
This kind of simple method won a lot of good impressions from people.
The reason was simple.
ARES's president was notorious for his fierce reputation. For men, the eyes of a beautiful lady would not always stay on him, which would increase the chances of flirting with girls.
As for the ladies, more women were afraid, and they would underestimate their enemies a lot less.
Mu Lele didn't care about what the others thought. She took the gift she wanted to give from a waiter and walked towards Lady Gao with a smile.
Meanwhile, Li Xiao went to the banquet to look for traces of Mayor Gao.
She held a delicate jewelry box and walked in front of Madame Gao. With a decent smile, she said, "Greetings, Madam Gao. I'm Mu Lele. I'm very pleased to be attending your birthday party. This is a gift I've chosen for you. Please accept it."
Madam Gao had previously heard of her reputation and thought that the Mu family's Eldest Miss was a foxy and seductive existence. She didn't expect her to be a clean girl. Her smile was especially adorable.
In an instant, Madame Gao's attitude towards her improved significantly.
She took the gift from Mu Lele and said with a smile, "Thank you. I'll just open it and take a look."
Mu Le Le smiled and said, "Please!"
Lady Gao opened the box and let out a sigh. "Oh heavens …" Le Le, your gift is too precious. I cannot accept it! "
Everyone saw that Madame Gao was so excited, so they curiously stretched their necks to look into the box.
Inside was a complete set of emerald jewelry, ranging from large necklaces to earrings that were less than a centimeter long.
"Such a big piece of work. If I'm not mistaken, the water in this set of jewelry has already reached the level of glass, and the color is also emerald green. Even more rare is that these jades look the same to the naked eye, it's clear that they were made from an entire piece of jadeite." "If it's estimated, it should be above 50 million!"
"After a whole piece of material finishes making this whole set of jewelry, I'll probably only have a little bit of side material left... "What a huge sum of money."
When Mu Lele heard the whispered discussion beside her, she smiled and said, "Madam Gao, you don't have to be so polite. I'm sure you've heard that I placed a low price bet on a batch of ores a while ago. The material inside is pretty good.
