"Miss Gu, it’s an honor to meet you."

Huo Xun noticed she still seemed quite unhappy.

In the end, Gu Anjin reluctantly completed the cheek kiss.

"Hi, Mr. Murphy."

Just as Gu Anjin was about to ask something, someone approached to greet them.

"Jin, do you know Mr. Murphy too?"

The newcomer was a noble lady from a prominent family in the United Kingdom, her light blue eyes kept darting towards Huo Xun, her smile alluring, "Mr. Murphy, long time no see."

Mr. Murphy?

Gu Anjin mocked him, unclear where he had gotten a new identity.

Anyway, since Huo Xun has already admitted it, there’s nothing left to say; he’s using a fake identity.

But secretly memorizing this name, she could later have Arthur look into it.

"Long time no see, Miss Elizabeth."

Gu Anjin said indifferently, "I don’t really know him, you two carry on chatting."

Sensing keenly that Elizabeth wouldn’t leave just yet, with someone else there, what she originally wanted to ask was no longer worth mentioning.

Gu Anjin didn’t wait for Huo Xun to say anything, directly turned around and walked away.

"Oh, she has quite a temper today," Elizabeth found it a bit incredible.

Huo Xun shrugged his shoulders, his gaze still following her silhouette, "Perhaps she’s a bit upset today."

Gu Anjin searched around the banquet but couldn’t find Yue Siqing.

She remembered when she came, she went directly to the store with Song Yi to buy clothes, without notifying Yue Siqing she would also attend.

Presumably, Yue Siqing would suddenly realize it, then inquire with those tracking bodyguards.

"Jinjin, did you go to meet a friend just now?"

"Song Yi, are you okay?" Gu Anjin saw him and was reminded of what Huo Xun said earlier.

But if it indeed involved poisoning, perhaps Song Yi was unaware as well.

"I... I’m alright," Song Yi smiled ruefully, recalling the polite mockery he faced earlier.

Though it didn’t feel good, he also felt he didn’t really belong here.

"No, I meant," Gu Anjin glanced around him anxiously and said, "Was someone looking for you just now, that..."

She hesitated, unsure whether directly expressing her concerns would cause him panic, or even greater danger.

"You mean that person, right? I still don’t know who he is," Song Yi sighed softly, "Originally thought seeing a familiar Asian face here would bring more warmth."

Who knew...

"Miss Gu, this gentleman, is he Mr. Song?"

Upon hearing this voice, Gu Anjin’s previously anxious expression darkened again.

It’s Huo Xun again!

How did he break away from Elizabeth so quickly!

"You are..." Song Yi realized this was the person Gu Anjin had specially gone to find earlier.

Gu Anjin was both furious and anxious, his timing was really perfect.

But given this situation, how could she warn Song Yi?

"Excuse me, may I speak with Miss Gu alone?" Huo Xun spoke unhurriedly.

Seeing him speak, Song Yi instinctively said, "Sure, you two take your time chatting."

Without hesitation, he greeted them and walked away.

Gu Anjin originally wanted to stop him, but recalling Song Yi might already be poisoned, with him around, she was also unable to say anything.

She glared at Huo Xun, full of resentment.

His face wore a gentlemanly smile, yet she could see the deep-seated evil in his gaze.
