After processing the stacked documents on the desk, the sky was already half dark, and at the beginning of the lights, Liu Jin raised his hand and rubbed the corners of his sore eyes, got up and walked out of the office, and stood on the railing in the corridor.

Liu Jin suddenly felt that Lin Wanjing was like this residual afterglow - if the appearance of one person could change another person's life and let him see other colors other than black and white, before he met Lin Wanjing, he would never believe it.

But now, he believed.

The chirping gulls, the churning waves, the magnificent glow, the sights he had long been accustomed to, now seemed to have a special interest, and even the dolphins jumping on the side of the boat, he felt as if they were trying to lure him back to hers.

Damn, he's really obsessed, his eyes open and closed, and his mind is all about her.

He was distracted, and when he found someone around him, he turned his head, but saw that Lu Canghan was already standing in front of him, he ran all the way from outside the porch in the lobby, and he didn't care about the image at the moment, unbuttoned the suit vest, and gasped for breath - today is the tail tooth banquet of the Shuai Mansion, and the people invited are all big people who can speak in the political and business circles of Luzhou, and the Lu family is also among the invites, Lu Canghan, as the eldest young master of the Lu family, naturally bears the burden of supporting the façade of the entire Lu family, so he wears a particularly formal and grand dress, and it is precisely because of this, It is extremely unconscionable for him to appear here at this moment.

"What are you doing here?" Liu Jin asked him, he didn't think about it, but Lu Canghan unceremoniously retorted:

"I should ask you that, right? Do you remember what day it is?! ”

"Yes." Liu Jin said indifferently, "But you know, I have never cared about this kind of banquet. ”

"Well, yes, you don't care, you don't care who you invite, you don't care who will attend, it's just that if Lin Wanjing is snatched away by Zhang San and Li Si, you don't care!"

"What did you just say?"

Obviously, Liu Jin cares.

As the eldest lady of the Lin family, it is the first year of returning to China, she naturally wants to attend this kind of banquet, and it is also the first official meeting with important people from all walks of life in Luzhou. And he actually ignored this matter, and calmly committed nymphomaniac here.

"I said, Lin Wanjing is sitting in your living room right now! Otherwise, why do you think I came to you after toasting and didn't even eat?! Lu Canghan can be regarded as smoothing out his anger, and when he saw that Liu Jin was still standing in place, he rolled his eyes fiercely:

"Boss, if you want to understand, hurry up! When I was toasting just now, your two young people's eyes were about to fall off! If your father hadn't pulled him, he would have been able to move a stool and sit next to Wanjing, believe it or not?! ”

Lu Canghan thought that when he said this, Liu Jin should be in a hurry, but he never thought that a smile appeared on his face, the more he said, the more obvious the smile became, and finally he even chuckled out loud, this laugh, Lu Canghan couldn't understand it at all:

"You...... What do you mean? ”

Liu Jin restrained his smile a little, looked at Lu Canghan, and asked seriously:

"Isn't she particularly beautiful tonight?"

"Sour me, isn't it? You're deliberately souring me, aren't you?! Lu Canghan shouted angrily, "I won't eat dinner, I'll rush to report to you for eight hundred miles, you treat your brother like this, right?!" Right! Pretty! It's not pretty! It's amazing, isn't it?! ”

Liu Jin naturally heard the small emotions in Lu Canghan's words, laughed insolently, and said after laughing enough:

"Okay, got it, you can go back first."

Lu Canghan looked confused: It stands to reason that Liu Jin should be in a hurry when he heard him say this, but at the moment he didn't look anxious at all.

"......... you are"

"I'll go back and change my clothes."

Although what Lu Canghan said was exaggerated, it was not adulterated, Lin Wanjing knew that there were still some taboo colors on such an important occasion, so she avoided the white and beige she often wore, and chose a light gold dress, the skirt made by silk heavy industry can show a soft fluffy effect without skirt support, a ruffled neckline, fragrant shoulders are half exposed, a beaded lace necklace is worn on the slender and white neck, and a burgundy Prussian embossed agate is in the center, every detail is an orthodox Western style, From the moment she stepped into the venue, she immediately became the focus of attention of the audience.

The dinner is over and the dance party is over.

Such a rare opportunity, Liu Jin is not here, Shen Junyi naturally will not let it go, taking advantage of the familiarity of the two families, she is close to the water and is by Lin Wanjing's side.

Lin Wanjing was very fond of dancing, but tonight, she only danced a few particularly favorite tunes with several young masters, including Shen Junyi, and then sat on the sidelines with a lack of interest. Shen Junyi could also see that she was absent-minded, and she didn't say anything, so he didn't take the initiative to invite her, but just sat and chatted with her. Mo Zhidong could see her daughter's abnormality and withdrew from the crowd of ladies and ladies, but Lin Wanjing only said that she was a little tired, and if she could, it would be better if she could go home first. But now that the halftime has passed, the second half is about to start, if you want to leave, you should leave the table, now I'm afraid it's too rude. So I had to comfort her a few words, let her rest on the sidelines, and hold on to it until the end no matter what, Lin Wanjing couldn't, so she had to accept it, but she wasn't uncomfortable, she was really uncomfortable-

That day, Liu Jin took her to an abandoned barracks in the suburbs, a three-story red brick building built on a hilly grassland, and a considerable area of the school field, which was originally the camp of the city defense troops. It should have been a very leisurely afternoon, but she didn't expect that when she arrived at the destination, she saw a group of soldiers already waiting, compared to Lin Wanjing's restraint and uncomfortable, Liu Jin was calm and calm, and he did not shy away from holding her all the way, Sima Zhao's heart was well known to passers-by.

At the current dinner party, half of the soldiers present that day were present, and Liu Jin was not there, so those eyes followed her closely, but they just watched from afar, and occasionally met and just nodded politely, Lin Wanjing only felt that wherever she went and what she did, it was like being monitored, so she was extremely uncomfortable. She wanted to find a side door to go to the terrace to breathe, but Shen Junyi's searching eyes were seen, but she heard him sigh softly and said:

"Don't look for it, Liu Jin won't attend this kind of occasion. The Shuaifu has held a year-end banquet for so many years, and he has never appeared. ”

When Lin Wanjing heard this, she looked at him and frowned: "Who is looking for him!" It's better if he doesn't come! ”

"Oh? Isn't it because you didn't come because you were so preoccupied and suffering from gains and losses? Shen Junyi felt a trace of inexplicable joy, "That being the case, if I invite you to be a dance partner, you won't refuse, right?" ”

Lin Wanjing glanced at him and pretended to be angry: "This question is asked, did I reject you just now?" ”

Shen Junyi thought about it, and was about to speak, but the smile froze on his face, and then sighed:

"Eh, I'm afraid that this opening dance, I'm not blessed."

Lin Wanjing turned her head with his gaze, but saw Liu Ming walking across the dance floor towards her, and when she saw her looking at him, his already hesitant expression immediately became a little more shy, and he couldn't help but look at the little girl who followed him.

The little girl was only twelve or thirteen years old, and her smart eyes looked at Lin Wanjing, and then she made a "come on" gesture to Liu Ming, this action Lin Wanjing saw in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a smile, this smile was seen by Liu Ming, but after seeing him lose his mind for a short time, he walked towards her more and more firmly, and his swaggering posture was indeed a little similar to Liu Jin.

When they arrived at Lin Wanjing, they said goodbye to each other, and then they were silent with each other and no one spoke, the little girl couldn't stand it, and she hated that iron was not steel, and she said "Hi", jumped between the two, pulled the corner of Lin Wanjing's skirt, and said:

"Sister, my brother wants to invite you to dance, and when the show opens in a while, I want to ask you if you agree!" Saying this, she turned her head again, glared at Liu Ming and said, "Look, it's as simple as that, stupid to death for you!" ”

Liu Ming couldn't cry or laugh, helplessly looked at his sister who didn't save face for himself at all, and sighed: "Little ancestor, can you go back to your mother to eat cake?" ”

But the little girl ignored him at all, and went around to Lin Wanjing's side, with the left sentence "Sister, you just promise him", and another sentence "My brother has been thinking about it all night", Lin Wanjing looked back at Shen Junyi in embarrassment, after all, he invited her first, but saw him smile helplessly and shrugged: "It's okay, don't be embarrassed because of me, after all, this assist is too powerful." ”

While they were talking and laughing here, the attendants of the Liu family hurriedly came to them, and when they arrived at Liu Ming's side, they called the second young man, and then attached it to his ear, and whispered: "The eldest young master is here, the master called you over." ”

Liu Ming replied and knew that his unwillingness was all written on his face - he finally decided to invite her, and she was about to agree, but at this time, he made a trip to bite the gold, Liu Jin came, but he let go of the words early in the morning, he can be interested in anyone, except for Lin Wanjing.

Lin Wanjing saw Liu Ming's expression mixed, and then listened to the waiter ring the triangle, the band was in place, three or two tunes audition, the second half is about to start, if you want to invite her to dance the first dance of this opening, it should be said now, but he hesitated and didn't speak, and he didn't know why.

What was more confused than Lin Wanjing was the little girl who followed Liu Ming, she frequently glanced at Liu Ming, and finally simply opened her mouth to urge him:

"Brother, what are you waiting for! Say! ”

But it was not Liu Ming who responded to her, but she heard Liu Jin's voice coming, with a smile in her words:

"Ziyan, if your second brother doesn't say it, don't force him." He strode to Liu Ming's side and stood side by side with him. The little girl probably didn't expect Liu Jin to come, so she shouted big brother very happily, and then jumped to his side, looked up at him, and wondered:

"Why? Big brother, you don't know, the second brother was entangled all night, and the chain fell off at a critical time! ”

Liu Jin smiled and rubbed her hair, but instead of her, she looked at Lin Wanjing, stretched out her hand and said:

"Miss Wanjing, can you please dance with me?"

I don't know how to describe this feeling, as if as long as I see Liu Jin, all the hustle and bustle around me will be quiet, she can only hear his voice, so without thinking, put her hand in his palm, and then he still led it to the center of the dance floor, until he grabbed her waist, applause and music sounded together, Lin Wanjing suddenly woke up and realized how meaningful her decision was.

She looked up at him, his jaw within reach of hers, and his chest was so close to her that she could hear his even heartbeat.

He sensed her gaze, lowered his head, and said in a gentle voice in her ear:

"Sorry, I'm late."

"You should discuss it with me......" Lin Wanjing complained to him.

She was referring to asking her to dance.

Liu Jin chuckled: "What about you?" You didn't consult with me. ”

He was referring to Lin Wanjing's attendance at the dinner.

"I thought you should have at least seen the guest list ......"

"But Wanjing, you should know, except for you, no one else has anything to do with me."

Yes, everyone knows that Liu Jin has never attended the year-end banquet of the Shuai Mansion for so many years, but today, he set this precedent for her.

"I think it's time for you to think about what I said to you that night." Liu Jin said again, still in her ears, and the exhaled breath touched her neck, with a faint aroma of tobacco.

"I just agreed to dance this dance with you......"

"But...... Do you think there's room for you to say no now? He deliberately squeezed her hand in the palm of his hand, and then led her in front of him.

"What if I refuse?"

She stubbornly raised her head and looked at him, with a wicked smile in her watery eyes, so she responded to his words as if she was coquettish.

I didn't think about it, but Liu Jin lowered his head, put his forehead against her forehead, and the intimate action of surprise led her to blush, and her heart beat faster, but his hand was fixed on her waist, which perfectly prevented her from escaping, and he must have felt her crampedness, so he smiled triumphantly:

"I'm using my full net worth, bet you won't."

Lu Canghan, who watched the whole process from the sidelines, could be regarded as visible, no wonder when he went to find Liu Jin just now, he was so calm and calm, and he could still find time to go home and change clothes, it turned out that about Lin Wanjing, he had already made a bamboo in his heart, and he was bound to win.
