On the evening of the banquet, Lin Xu followed Ji Tingyang to the venue.
With her by his side, Ji Tingyang made a brief appearance before Old Master Su. While Su Linzhou and Ji Tingyang exchanged pleasantries, Su Linzhou gave Lin Xu a puzzled look.
It was as if he was asking her—"Weren't you supposed to be accompanying Xie Changyan to the banquet, why are you here with Ji Tingyang?"
A few days ago, when he had asked whether Xie Changyan would come alone to the event, Xie Changyan had been quite pleased, saying he would bring a female companion.
A female companion.
Su Linzhou didn't need to guess to know it was Lin Xu.
Apart from her, he had never seen Xie Changyan bring any other female companion to an event.
Never had Su Linzhou thought he would see Lin Xu by Ji Tingyang's side.
Could it be that the female companion Xie Changyan wanted to invite wasn't Lin Xu?
Was he overthinking it?
