Although the surrounding environment was very noisy, the bodyguard did not deliberately lower his voice when talking to Shi Xiao, so Li Ci heard what he said.

Shi Xiao and Li Ci were stunned and looked towards the stage together.

But Li Ci was a little surprised that Yuan Shu would come here, especially tonight. Shi Xiao sneered. It seemed that this woman was exactly the same as before. He was worrying too much.

But when Xiao saw the person on the stage clearly, he vaguely felt that the Yuan Shu in front of him was very different from the previous Yuan Shu.

Is this still the Yuan Shu he knows who usually wears heavy makeup?

She had a clean face, with long hair tied behind her head, revealing a delicate face. She stood carefully behind Shi Lu, and only when the light shone on her would her body move stiffly, causing her hair to sway slightly.

Compared with the red-haired girl next to him, Yuan Shu's white T-shirt and jeans were indeed a bit too conservative.

Yuan Shu obviously couldn't keep up with the rhythm. As the previous singers went on stage one after another, the stage became crowded in an instant. Yuan Shu was also pushed far away and could no longer find Zhang Zhang and Shi Lu.

She kept avoiding the touch of people around her and tried her best to move back.

But Yuan Shu was so focused on the person in front of her that she didn't notice that she was already hanging on the edge of the stage and would fall off if she wasn't careful.

The scene on the stage was clearly visible to the audience below. I have to say that the view from the front of the stage was really good. Even if there were a lot of people in front, they could still notice every detail on the stage.

Seeing Yuan Shu getting closer and closer, almost to the edge of the stage, Li Ci and the bodyguard said almost at the same time: "Be careful!"

Before anyone else could react, Shi Xiao rushed out quickly.

Until he reached the center of the crowd, Shi Xiao still didn't understand why he ran out subconsciously. Was it because he was worried about a woman who had no feelings for him?

Although he thought so, he pushed the crowd aside and walked forward.

Yuan Shu was so focused on keeping strangers away that he forgot about the safety behind him and under his feet. While dodging, he slipped, lost his balance, and fell backwards.

The stage is at least 1.5 meters high. If you fall down, you will definitely get hurt. There are so many people, it might even cause a stampede.

Yuan Shu quickly estimated the possible damage she might suffer, then untied the whip from her waist with her hands, preparing to use the whip to wrap around the loudspeaker behind the stage. This would at least provide a cushion when she landed, allowing her to stand up in time.

This is her habit. Since the whip was made, she would carry it wherever she went. If she had a handbag, she would put it in the bag. If she didn't have a bag, she would wrap it around her waist so that she could take it out quickly.

As soon as Yuan Shu's hand touched the whip, she fell into a broad embrace, her upper body pressed tightly against the man's broad chest.

The man groaned and held Yuan Shu firmly, holding her shoulders with one hand and her legs with the other.

She seemed lighter than he had imagined.

This was Shi Xiao’s first thought.

As soon as Shi Xiao steadied his body, he knocked Yuan Shu down without any hesitation.

As soon as Yuan Shu's feet touched the ground, she immediately took a step back and said politely but distantly, "Thank you."

The music was very loud and there were screams in his ears. Shi Xiao couldn't hear what Yuan Shu said at all. Seeing the strangeness in Yuan Shu's eyes, Shi Xiao narrowed his eyes. Doesn't she know him?

At this time, Li Ci rushed over with the security guards. After standing next to Shi Xiao, Li Ci asked Yuan Shu loudly: "Yuan Shu, are you okay? Are you injured?"

Yuan Shu shook his head to indicate that he was fine, but his eyes became even more confused.

Why does the man who saved her look so weird?

He was with Li Ci, so he must be a member of the upper class. He must have appeared at the banquet at the Shi family’s ancestral home.

Yuan Shu thought he had a good memory. Even if he didn't remember the name of the person he had met, he should have a general impression of him. Why did it feel like he had never seen him before?

Shi Lu and Zhang Zhang did not see Yuan Shu on the stage. They finally squeezed out of the crowd. After getting off the stage, they carefully checked whether Yuan Shu was injured. They were relieved to see that she was fine.

Shi Lu put his arm around Yuan Shu's shoulders and sent her back to the box, and whispered to Zhang Zhang: "I told you not to be so ostentatious next time. My sister-in-law is not used to such a noisy environment!"

While talking, Shi Lu kept looking straight ahead, until Shi Xiao's face completely appeared in his sight. He froze in place, put down his hand on Yuan Shu's shoulder, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and stammered: "Brother..."

Big brother? !

Zhang Zhang and Yuan Shu were both shocked when they heard this.

Yuan Shu quickly suppressed the shock in her eyes. She didn't expect that he would come back so soon!

Oh no, could it be that the look in her eyes just now made him suspect her?

Yuan Shu remembered that in the original work, Shi Xiao was very sensitive and could detect the subtle expressions of people around him.

Shi Xiao must have suspected that she didn't recognize him now, but he said nothing.

Shi Xiao glanced at Yuan Shu indifferently. The shock that flashed across her narrow eyes did not escape Shi Xiao's eyes, but he did not speak, just nodded, and turned to walk towards his seat.

How come he didn't know that Yuan Shu hated such an environment?

Didn’t Yuan Shu claim to be the queen of nightclubs back then?

She wears heavy makeup every day and dances to the wildest DJs. How could she have changed so much in just two months?

Two bodyguards sat down in Yuan Shu's box. The wine had been moved to Shi Xiao's box. The five of them sat quietly on the leather chairs. The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Zhang Zhang is quite sociable, but when he saw Shi Xiao's stern expression, he was speechless.

She didn't expect that she almost snatched Brother Shi Lu's seat just now. She really didn't want to sit in this seat at all!

Shi Lu became even more nervous when he saw his eldest brother. In the entire Shi family, except for his parents who were not in the country, these three were most afraid of Shi Xiao.

The reason why Shi Lu was afraid of Shi Xiao was because they were half-brothers. In addition, Shi Xiao had always been dissatisfied with Shi Lu's involvement in the entertainment industry, so Shi Lu had been avoiding him and never returned to the Shi family again.

At this time, Yuan Shu fell into deep thought.

When she came to this world, she had the memory of the host, but why did she have no impression of Shi Xiao at all, as if this face had never appeared in front of her.

Shi Xiao stared at Yuan Shu intently, and he suddenly began to look forward to Yuan Shu's performance after returning home tonight.

Immediately afterwards, Shi Xiao noticed the glass of Sky City wine in front of Yuan Shu. It was a bit strange that this glass of wine appeared in front of him twice.

He turned his head and closed the distance between him and Li Ci. "I remember you were going to tell me what happened with that glass of wine that night. Now that I'm here, you can tell me."

Of course, Li Ci also noticed the Sky City in front of Yuan Shu, and a confident smile appeared on his lips, "Bartender."

When Shi Xiao heard this, he looked towards the tall man with dreadlocks standing at the bar in the distance. He was holding a cocktail shaker and mixing a glass of Sky City wine. The drink he mixed was exactly the same as the one Shi Xiao had that night, except that compared to the wine in front of Yuan Shu, it lacked a bright red cherry.

Why was the glass of wine given to Yuan Shu different?

Shi Xiao and Li Ci had the same question in their minds. They looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
