Chapter 16 Cocktail Party
The autumn rain hits the leaves, and the night is slightly cool.
The reputation of the Bamboo Pavilion Hotel in City A is undoubted, and it is the favorite place for wealthy families. It can be seen that the fame and status are not ordinary.
"Why are you here now?"
Qiu Yun took off the woolen tweed coat he was wearing, and Bai Ruijie took the initiative to catch it with both hands. She glanced lightly at Lu Xingjian, who came forward, and ignored his concerned inquiry.
"Oh, I was hungry just now, so I ate a bowl of chaos on the way here." Her meaning was self-evident, clearly telling Lu Xingjian that she didn't want to come to this drinking party.
Bai Ruijie was so inquiring by Lu Xingjian's eyes that he didn't dare to raise his head, so he was silent and quickly left the place of right and wrong.
"So, are you full? Don't eat again. The corners of Lu Xingjian's mouth were raised, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
"No, I'm full. Has the drinking party started, will you let me come again to let me accompany you to act and deal with those reporters? Qiu Yun rolled her eyes a few times in her heart, she hated to come to this kind of occasion the most. Although she accompanied Lu Xingjian in front of outsiders for three years.
In the past three years, she has subtly cultivated her ability to lie, and even if the sky falls, she can still be calm.
The corners of Qiu Yun's full lips were sarcastically raised. All this is thanks to her "husband"!
His shoulders were hugged, the faint smell of tobacco sprayed around his neck, and a low and low voice rang in his ears.
"You're full, your appetite is too small, hehe."
He chuckled, Qiu Yun looked up inexplicably, looked at each other, and at the same time, they saw themselves in each other's pupils.
Lu Xingjian's pupils were as obsidian as the galaxy in the night, and people couldn't help but peek at the secret behind it, unconsciously, Qiu Yun was attracted and forgot to retract his gaze in a daze.
"Am I so good-looking? Well? ”
The distance between the two somehow became only as wide as a fist, and Qiu Yun's mind was suddenly pulled back.
"What are you doing so close to me!"
Qiu Yun pushed Lu Xingjian away, a foot away in the middle, and his eyes were very disgusted.
Oh, women are really fickle, they were docile sheep at the last moment, and they became hedgehogs that pierced people after a while?
Lu Xingjian shook his head helplessly.
Across a long table, Song Wanqi, who was wearing a slit bright red hip-wrapping dress, twisted her waist and walked over slowly, and Qiu Yun saw her as soon as she raised her eyes.
Yo, it's really a narrow road, and you can meet it wherever you go.
Thinking of what happened last time, Qiu Yun was angry.
This woman's scheming and viciousness are really not comparable to ordinary people, do you count step by step, and use the people around you as stepping stones!
She had thought that this woman was just a general jealousy, so she didn't care, but the truth told her that she was wrong.
If you don't care, others will think you're a bully!
In this world, it is not as easy as imagined to live casually.
It's time for the hidden claws to stick out.
"Brother Lu, what a coincidence!" Song Wanqi's gaze has been attached to Lu Xingjian's body from just now to now, and she has never let it go, and when she walked up to her charmingly, she lowered her eyes slightly, pretending to be surprised, and staring at her eyes slightly.
"Sister Qiuyun, you're here too!"
Qiu Yun couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth, can this expression be more fake!
"yes, what? Are you disappointed? Qiu Yun slammed back unceremoniously, not putting the person in front of her in her eyes at all, she didn't care if Song Wanqi was a rich daughter or anything, as long as it was someone she didn't like, even if it was Lord Yan, she still didn't give face.
A few people who had business dealings with the Lu family were about to come over to toast Lu Xingjian, but when they saw Qiu Yun's posture halfway, they immediately stopped and didn't dare to take a step forward.
"Hehe, Sister Qiuyun....... This makes me a little confused. ”
Obviously, she was pretending to be stupid.
Qiu Yun sneered and glanced at him, "It's only been a few days since that incident, and you forgot about it so quickly?" ”
"What's the matter, I don't understand what you mean, hehe."
Song Wanqi lowered her eyes, just to hide the vicious look - she didn't leave evidence when she drugged that day, and it seems that Qiu Yun obviously has no evidence, and things without evidence can't be counted.
Qiu Yun didn't expect this woman's face to be so thick-skinned, she had said it to this point, do you still have to pretend not to know!
At this time, she felt the urge to hit someone.
Lu Xingjian looked down and saw Qiu Yun's white and red cheeks, and his heart suddenly softened, and then he looked at Song Wanqi indifferently.
"Song Wanqi, if you don't want the Song family to disappear in City A, please disappear in front of me immediately!"
His words hit Song Wanqi's heart like a hammer weighing a thousand pounds, and she raised her head suddenly, full of disbelief.
"Brother Lu, no, you misunderstood me. Is there some misunderstanding in the middle? I really don't know what you're talking about! Sister Qiuyun, if you have something to say, just say it. ”
"Oh? Listening to Miss Song, this means that she is ready to be killed and refuses to admit it. Qiu Yun's tone was light, but it was mixed with a coercion that could not be ignored, so that the weak-hearted Song Wanqi did not dare to look directly at her.
Song Wanqi never thought that Qiu Yun would tell this matter in person, for a wealthy family, face and reputation are more important than anything else, is she ready to let it go?
"What, Sister Qiuyun! It's not a good time to talk about personal matters now, so why don't we make an appointment alone? ”
Qiu Yun just wanted to agree, but Lu Xingjian took the lead. "I'm sorry Miss Song, Qiu Yun is tired, please take care of yourself!" His tone was cold, exuding coldness all over his body, like a thousand-year-old ice that people didn't dare to approach.
As soon as the lights are on, long music plays in the huge ballroom, and the guests begin to dance with their dance partners.
The surroundings darkened for a while, and Lu Xingjian stretched out his hand, "This young lady, can I ask you to dance?" ”
In the dim light, Lu Xingjian's facial features were more three-dimensional, and his long narrow eyes stared at Qiu Yun fixedly, waiting for her reply.
His words attracted the attention of the people around him, and Qiu Yun had to agree even if he was unwilling, so he stretched out his hand to cover it.
I don't know if it's because of the cold weather, Qiu Yun's little hands are cold, and Lu Xingjian can't help but wrap them tightly.
Qiu Yun's face immediately pulled, glared at him, and said in a suppressed voice, "Don't you have to inch in!" ”
"Oh? How did I get an inch? Isn't that normal for you to be my wife? ”
Seeing Qiu Yun's deflated appearance, he felt very cute, so he followed the intention in his heart, and hugged Qiu Yun, who was too late to react, in his arms.
He's eating tofu in the open.
Qiu Yun was indignant in her heart, and reached out to push the chest in front of her, through the suit, she could feel how hard and strong the chest under this layer of clothing was.
