Having a special fondness
"Let's go."
The main reason she agreed to Qi Mo was also due to work.
"Okay." Qi Mo immediately replied, putting away his phone. Then, he led Mu Yin Yin away from the castle to the venue of the banquet—Suka Seven-Star Hotel.
Once in the car, Mu Yin Yin turned her gaze to the man beside her and asked softly, "Who is the target?"
Since they were magnates, it would be easier to talk if she understood beforehand.
Qi Mo kept her in suspense, a clear smile playing on his lips. "You'll know when you see them. Besides, leave the cooperation matters to me. You just need to be beautiful."
Mu Yin Yin: "..."
She withdrew her gaze and ultimately said nothing more.
Since he didn't want to say, he must have his reasons, and there was no need for her to ask.
The banquet today also had media coverage.
The moment she got out of the car with Qi Mo, the flashbulbs went off, and she and Qi Mo instantly became the focus of the reporters.
Mu Yin Yin's brow furrowed slightly.
The reporters only dared to snap photos and did not dare to approach.
Not only was Qi Mo a prominent figure in Country E's business world, but the Qi family was also royalty.
It was only natural for the media to be apprehensive of him.
However, the reporters posted photos of Mu Yin Yin and Qi Mo online:

—: [A Match Made in Heaven ##]
—: [Divine Couple ##]
...
Qi Mo led Mu Yin Yin into the main hall. The hall was luxuriously decorated, and the moment she stepped inside, she truly understood the meaning of 'magnificent and opulent'.
The entire venue glittered, as if it were built with gold.
As far as she knew, Country E was rich in gold, but this was a bit too extravagant.
Mu Yin Yin couldn't help but ask her inner doubts, "Qi Mo, is the magnate we're meeting today the host of the banquet?"
"So smart." Qi Mo was not surprised; instead, he praised Mu Yin Yin. He even explained to her, "Today's banquet is called the Bliss Banquet. Only elites are allowed to attend, and not just from this country. The host is very mysterious, wearing a silver-white mask and never showing their true face. This is the 10th Bliss Banquet."
"Held once a year?" Mu Yin Yin couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
Qi Mo shook his head and chuckled, "No, twice a year. This is the fifth year the Bliss Banquet has been held in Country E. At the Bliss Banquet, everyone can play to their heart's content. Although spending here doesn't cost money, the entry ticket is five million."
Mu Yin Yin's eyes flickered, and she looked around. At the Bliss Banquet, there were card games, singing, dancing, and beautiful women in sexy dresses, each with their own unique charm.
There were also exhibits set up, many of which looked priceless.
She understood now. Wealthy elites were only part of it; this place also included entertainment venues and even illicit dealings.
She had only heard of the 'Bliss Banquet' before, but she never expected Qi Mo to bring her to attend it today.
"Come, Ms. Yin Yin, choose a mask." Following that, Qi Mo led Mu Yin Yin to a waiter. The waiter was holding a tray with colorful masks on it.
Mu Yin Yin saw that some people were also wearing masks.
So, she chose a white feathered mask, which perfectly complemented the starlight long dress she was wearing.
Qi Mo, to match her, picked a black mask.
"Fairy."
"Handsome."
Qi Mo and Mu Yin Yin spoke one after another. Mu Yin Yin saw a deep smile on Qi Mo's lips, and then he asked, "When can you call me husband?"
"Don't joke with me." Mu Yin Yin playfully chided him and then reminded him, "Don't forget I accompanied you here to do business."
"Okay."
Qi Mo's smile faded, and he said nothing more.
The Bliss Banquet was scheduled to start at 11 PM. Before that, all guests could move freely. Mu Yin Yin was not interested in her surroundings.
However, she also noticed Nan Shi Qing not far away.
Mu Yin Yin immediately frowned. Her?
She knew that Nan Shi Qing should be in a hospital in City A, Country Z, at this moment. How could she be here now?
It would have been fine if Qi Mo hadn't mentioned the five million entry ticket.
At this critical juncture, when Mu Corporation was affected, how could He Xia and He Cheng Kui possibly spend five million to send her to the Bliss Banquet?
Mu Yin Yin stared at her. She saw Nan Shi Qing pick up a black butterfly mask, and then a man in a black suit and black mask walked up to Nan Shi Qing.
Before long, Nan Shi Qing disappeared into the crowd.
"Saw someone you know?" Seeing Mu Yin Yin's gaze fixed ahead, Qi Mo beside her couldn't help but ask.
Mu Yin Yin said faintly, "An enemy."
As soon as these two words fell, Fu Si Ye appeared at the entrance.
Fu Si Ye was also dressed in a black suit, standing tall and straight.
If the two of them came together, Nan Shi Qing would never have been alone, leaving Fu Si Ye aside.
In the moment she was thinking, Fu Si Ye had already disappeared from sight not far away, and many people had already put on masks.
Mu Yin Yin then turned to look at Qi Mo beside her, her brows furrowed as she asked, "How many times have you attended the Bliss Banquet?"
"This is my first time with you." Qi Mo said gently.
So, this was Qi Mo's second time attending the Bliss Banquet.
Mu Yin Yin followed up by asking him, "Do you know who the person wearing the black mask is?"
Everyone here either wore a mask or showed their true faces.
She wanted to know who the man wearing the black mask who led Nan Shi Qing was!
And also, Nan Shi Qing's real purpose for being here!
"The person wearing the black mask is a distinguished guest of the organizer."
Faced with Qi Mo's words, Mu Yin Yin looked surprised. "Are you sure?"
Nan Shi Qing could know such an influential person?
After all, who could be a distinguished guest of the organizer here? Even Qi Mo hadn't...
"I don't want to drag you as a distinguished guest, because only the most ordinary can know some of the most real things. Looking at your gaze just now, Yin Yin, who is your enemy? Is it Nan Shi Qing, the daughter of He Xia, the person in charge of Mu Corporation, who has been causing trouble for you recently?" Qi Mo's deep blue eyes gazed intently at Mu Yin Yin.
Mu Yin Yin did not deny it.
Since Qi Mo knew so clearly, did he know about the entanglement between her and Fu Si Ye?
If he knew about her past with Fu Si Ye, then he wouldn't understand why Qi Mo would still have a 'special fondness' for her.
"I can take you to see."
As he said this, Qi Mo pulled Mu Yin Yin to her feet.
Mu Yin Yin's eyes flickered, and she said nothing, following along.
