Chapter 1026: Chapter 1031: It's a Matter between Her and Him4 Chapter 1026: Chapter 1031: It's a Matter between Her and Him4 Although his actions were subtle, so much so that perhaps Gu Qingxin herself could barely sense them, Rong Qianxia, whose greatest strength was her insight into humans and objects alike, discerned them clearly.
Especially when Beiming Han's large hand held onto Gu Qingxin's hand tightly, a gesture that confirmed how much he valued her.
Generally, men of status and reputation only allowed women to link arms with them…
Beiming Han and Gu Qingxin got in the car, and the driver closed the doors and returned to his seat to drive off. Just then, the car was abruptly halted. Both looked up to see Rong Qianxia standing outside.
“Miss Rong, is there something you need?” Ye Qi, seated in the copilot seat, rolled down the window and asked her expressionlessly.
“My car is having some issues, could I hitch a ride with you to the Presidential Palace? I'm running short on time.” Rong Qianxia looked at him anxiously.
Ye Qi, “…”
This was something for which he could not make the call. He needed to ask his master.
Gu Qingxin, seeing Rong Qianxia's anxious expression, turned to Beiming Han and said, “Let's give Miss Rong a ride.”
Beiming Han's brow furrowed slightly; he did not appreciate the intrusion of their alone time.
However, since Qingxin had insisted, he allowed Rong Qianxia to get in the car.
Rong Qianxia sat on the side sofa and thanked them gratefully, “Thank you, Young Master Han, and thank you Miss Gu. I never expected my car to break down here.”
“No need to thank us, it's along the way,” Gu Qingxin said to her with a smile.
Beiming Han's hand was still tightly holding onto Gu Qingxin's. As Rong Qianxia was present, Gu Qingxin felt slightly secretive about it. But as she tried to pull away, he only gripped tighter, refusing to let go.
Beiming Han was regretting allowing Rong Qianxia to ride along. He wanted to show his affection to Qingxin, which now wasn't possible.
Rong Qianxia was quite sociable, always talking with Gu Qingxin and occasionally engaging Beiming Han. Regardless of the topics she introduced, Beiming Han maintained his stoic demeanor, either ignoring her or providing terse, monosyllabic responses.
Gu Qingxin felt slightly embarrassed on behalf of Rong Qianxia. Yet there she remained, unperturbed and polite with her genteel smile intact.
Rong Qianxia was good at communicating with others, gentle and decorous, with none of the arrogance typically shown by wealthy heiresses. Gu Qingxin previously had no impressions of her, after all, there was little overlap in their lives, but after making contact today, she felt that Rong Qianxia was the epitome of what a true wealthy heiress should be.
The car arrived at the entrance of the Presidential Palace where a dedicated attendant came to open the door. Rong Qianxia was the first to step out, mindful not to linger and bother the other two.
Beiming Han and Gu Qingxin alighted from the car together. Gu Qingxin politely thanked them and went inside first.
Watching Rong Qianxia's elegant, graceful figure retreating, Gu Qingxin couldn't help but remark, “This is exactly how an heiress should be. So elegant and dignified.”
“I don't see it.” Beiming Han finally managed three words. Gu Qingxin swiftly withdrew her hand and instead hooked his arm.
Such formal settings demanded etiquette. Going in hand-in-hand was not appropriate.
Beiming Han eyed her a bit, but didn't object. They both walked into the Presidential Palace together.
The marriage arrangement between Beiming Han and Long Xuxu had been mutually cancelled by the respective families. Therefore, now that Beiming Han had returned to being a bachelor, his presence at the banquet with a woman was hardly surprising.
