Love is magical

Tonight, the splendid villa was adorned by colorful lights that made it look more extravagant.

With a goblet in her hand, Perrin Xia walked gracefully into the hall.

She was wearing a red dress that outlined her perfect figure. There was a faint smile on her thin lips.

But as she walked, her slender fingers secretly clenched into tightly squeezed fists. She felt like a wave was rolling in her stomach.

No matter how gorgeous this party was, for her, she had nothing to do with it.

This party was organized by Lucas Gu, her nominal fiance, who had always been cold to her. The man loved humiliating her all the time.

She even had a hunch that Lucas Gu would humiliate her again in this banquet, just like the way he had done so many times.

She really wanted to get away from here as soon as possible. However, there was a reason why she had to stay for the time being.

Perrin Xia was on her way to the bathroom when she accidentally bumped into a man. The red wine in her glass immediately splashed into his white shirt. "I'm so sorry," she apologized immediately.

But she was stunned when the man said, "If this is your way of attracting my attention, I'm afraid you've used the wrong method." The man's voice was unusually cold and full of mockery.

Perrin Xia raised her head and met the man's playful eyes. And her jaw dropped upon recognizing who the man in front of her was. He was no other than Rory An, one of the most prominent personalities in B City.

Perrin Xia slightly frowned when she felt her stomach churned. Her face turned white as a sheet, but she still tried her best to explain, "I'm sorry, but I think you misunderstand. Don't worry. I am willing to pay for your stained shirt."

Rory An stared at her pale face. Most women played hundreds of tricks just to win his favor, and in his eyes, she was no different from them. "You don't have to pretend that you are sick. After all, I am not interested in a woman like you."

Perrin Xia had no strength to explain anymore. Moreover, she was afraid that if she opened her mouth, she would only throw up in front of him.

To avoid another embarrassing situation, she decided to turn around and leave. But when she was about to walk forward, someone grabbed her arm all of a sudden. When she turned back, she saw a woman wearing a yellow gown.

"I've already seen a lot of women like you. How dare you bother Rory in this banquet!" the woman sneered. She looked so domineering.

Rory An raised his eyebrows upon seeing the intrusion of another woman. But his eyes were fixed on Perrin Xia's face that had become paler. He wanted to see how she would deal with this mess.

Although he didn't show it, he was obviously interested in Perrin Xia.

Perrin Xia didn't say anything. Instead, she just shook the woman's hand off with a frown. Her eyes emitted a very cold aura.

The woman in a yellow gown saw the interest in Rory's eyes towards Perrin, so she flared up with rage. She grabbed Perrin's arm again and asked, "What? Do you feel guilty now?"

"I..." Perrin stammered. Although her face was now as white as a sheet, her lips were still as enchanting as red roses when they moved slightly. She was about to open her mouth when a thin layer of mist surfaced in her eyes.

The woman squinted and added in a cruel voice, "What are you doing? Do you think Rory will fall for you if you pretend to look pitiful?"

Perrin felt that the woman had gone overboard. She had nothing to do with Rory, but the woman kept on insisting.
