Only then did Huo Xiaoting know that Linda would also attend the evening cocktail party.

When Qiao Ran heard this, he looked embarrassed, and said with a pout: "Then you go and report to Manager He." ”

"Heh, Fang is what you said about this fake and not approved, why do I need to go to Manager He? Director Qiao, just put one sentence, is it to approve or not to approve? Her voice rose slightly, and for a moment, the entire office fell silent, as if all the employees were secretly listening to their conversation.

Qiao Ran's face was gloomy, but he didn't dare to offend the people of the Lu family, and after struggling for a while, he said in a low voice: "You go." ”

"That's right," Linda said proudly, "Be a man and stay on the line, so we can meet in the future, Director Qiao, when I am promoted to mall manager one day, I will never embarrass you." As she spoke, she twisted her waist and walked away in full spirit.

After Linda left, Qiao Ran looked embarrassed, and the prestige she had built up for a long time collapsed in an instant, and from time to time, other employees secretly spied on her with strange eyes, and even Huo Xiaoting on the side couldn't bear to look at it anymore.

In the evening, as soon as the time to get off work arrived, Huo Xiaoting hurried out, Lu Hancheng's car was already waiting at the elevator in the underground parking lot, and as soon as she got out of the elevator, she saw a familiar body and a familiar face in the driver's seat.

Huo Xiaoting jumped up lightly like a smart rabbit, and before he could sit down, he leaned into Lu Hancheng's ear and said, "For a while, Lu Brown will take Linda to attend." ”

Hearing this, Lu Hancheng raised his eyebrows, and was stunned for a moment before he said, "Is it already so grandiose?" ”

Even if he is seen, he will find reasons for himself, saying that Huo Xiaolan is pregnant and inconvenient to attend; will also introduce Linda to others as an employee of the Lu family, Hancheng, you can't be unguarded. Huo Xiaoting's expression gradually became serious.

Lu Hancheng stared at her seriously for a moment, and said with a smile: "Should I think of your words as being clever, or thoughtful?" ”

"How dare I be clever in front of you? Of course, it was the result of some careful consideration. ”

"Oh?" Lu Hancheng pinched her fingertips and said, "Isn't it enough that you are clever in front of me?" ”

Huo Xiaoting pursed his lips slightly, shook his head one after another, and said, "No, Hancheng, even if I am a monkey, I am afraid that I will not be able to escape from the palm of your Buddha, right?" ”

"Oh, you have to remember your own words, and don't come up with any stupid thoughts." Lu Hancheng responded with a smile and drove directly towards the venue of the reception.

"Your evening dress has been placed in the lounge, I have also hired a makeup artist to help you styling, you can also take a short break in the lounge by the way, these days I see that you are busy with work all day, and people have lost some weight."

The seemingly casual words revealed that they were full of concern, Huo Xiaoting kicked his feet lightly, stared at his toes, and said sweetly: "Then I'll listen to you." ”

The two soon came to the reception site together, and the lounge next to the banquet hall had already been decided by Lu Hancheng. Walking inside, Huo Xiaoting found that there were no less than ten sets of evening dresses, and the stylist was waiting next to him early in the morning.

"Chenghan, isn't this drinking party held every year? Do you need to be so excited? Expressing her surprise, she stepped forward and chose the evening dresses with love.

"I'm not sure which one is more suitable for you to wear, so naturally I asked the stylist to ask the brand for a few more sets, but there are many big stars who want to wear these latest ready-to-wear clothes and can't borrow them."

"Then I'm not going to be the most showy person at the party today?" Huo Xiaoting smiled sweetly at Lu Hancheng's arm, and finally chose a long dress that could set off her more mature and elegant.

An hour later, the two entered hand in hand.

The appearance of Lu Hancheng set off a small climax at the scene, and many businessmen who had already entered the scene rushed to greet them, and the female dependents they carried also raised their glasses to Huo Xiaoting.

Although it seemed to be calm, Huo Xiaoting still keenly caught some hostility from the eyes of other women—a woman who could stand by Lu Hancheng's side was enough to make others jealous.

She held Lu Hancheng's hand tighter, raised her eyes to find Linda's figure, and without much effort, she found Lu Palm and Linda in a corner, but the two didn't seem to be very happy, Lu Brown had a black face, and Linda didn't have the proud look of cocking her tail in Su Ri.

Huo Xiaoting lightly touched Lu Hancheng's arm and glanced at him.

Lu Hancheng bowed slightly, with a charming and dangerous smile on his face.

"Go say hi." He whispered.

With that, the two walked towards Lu Hancheng hand in hand.

"Lu Brown." Lu Hancheng called in a low voice, and Lu Palm, who was sitting on the sofa, realized that his third uncle and third aunt had come together.

Lu Brown looked at Linda beside him nervously, and said a little helplessly: "Three...... Why is the third uncle here? ”

"What's coming?" Lu Hancheng raised his eyebrows and said, "I participate in this drinking party every year, and I came here today, is there anything strange?" ”

"No...... I didn't ......" Lu Brown stammered, and he couldn't say it bitterly - the reason why he would bring Linda to attend was because he decided not to attend today's event after learning that Lu Hancheng's time was inconvenient in the company, but he didn't expect that from the beginning, this was the fake news released by Lu Hancheng.

Lu Hancheng hooked the corners of his lips, squeezed Huo Xiaoting's hand with a little force, and turned his eyes and chuckled at her.

Huo Xiaoting lowered his eyes and glanced at Linda, who was sitting on the other side, his usual arrogance was completely gone, and anger was faintly floating on his face. Huo Xiaoting had no intention of arguing with her, pointed to Lu Hancheng's surroundings, signaled himself to go shopping casually, and left alone.

She had just picked up her usual grilled sushi at the bar and was about to put it in her mouth, when there was a commotion at the entrance not far away.

Huo Xiaoting followed the prestige and saw many people piling up at the entrance, intentionally or unintentionally, and soon, a beautiful figure appeared in front of him.

It turned out to be the first condensation.

When cutting the ribbon at the brand flagship store in Zhuguang Shopping Mall that day, Chu Ning left a deep impression on her - although she couldn't say why, she could clearly feel that Chu Ning didn't like her, and it could even be said that she was vaguely hostile.

And Huo Xiaoting doesn't like this big star either.

This time, Chu Ning seemed to be more elegant than before, but in addition to the elegance, it also brought a bit of tempting taste. It's just that the moment Huo Xiaoting saw her, he was embarrassed and stunned in place - the two of them collided.

Huo Xiaoting chose a silver-white close-fitting dress from Givenchy among the many brand robes sent by Lu Hancheng, and Chu Ning in front of him was wearing exactly the same as her - Chu Ning is indeed very suitable for this long skirt, in addition to being elegant, her perfect figure and creamy skin are set off to the fullest. But just now, Lu Hancheng clearly told Huo Xiaoting that there is only one set of this one in the entire A City.

When Chu Ning's eyes swept over others and finally fell on Huo Xiaoting, the two looked at each other in embarrassment, and they looked at each other together, their faces becoming more ugly than the other.

Huo Xiaoting retracted her eyes, deliberately avoided Chu Ning and walked in the opposite direction, but before she could walk back to Lu Hancheng's side, Chu Ning's voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Mrs. Lu."

Huo Xiaoting had no choice but to turn around and look, Chu Ning was as arrogant and cold as ever, and the indescribable and inexplicable hostility seemed to be more obvious.

"Hello Miss Chu."

As soon as the words fell, she saw Chu Ning looking at her without hesitation, with a little smugness in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

"I really didn't expect that I would collide with someone else at such a drinking party." Chu Ning spoke, with the posture of being experienced in a hundred battles.

"yes, I didn't expect that." Huo Xiaoting responded.

"I have been on the catwalk for so many years, and I have also attended many red carpets abroad in the past two years, and there are not thousands of uniforms I wear, and there is not much difference between the left and right, and they all say that the shirt is not terrible, who is ugly and who is embarrassed, today I can be regarded as knowing what this sentence means."

After that, she straightened her back a little more, and she looked like she was posing on the red carpet.

Huo Xiaoting had no intention of fighting, took a step back, turned around and walked towards Lu Hancheng, and after a few steps, he returned to Lu Hancheng's side.

"Chu Ning took the initiative to talk to you?" Lu Hancheng asked with concern.

"Well, it's a pity that there is no kindness," Huo Xiaoting frowned, "Hancheng," her fingertips swirled in his palm and said in a low voice, "How can there be two of these skirts at the same time?" ”

Lu Hancheng, who has always been a man who blocks people and Buddhas who destroy Buddhas, is a little helpless in the face of this kind of scene for a while.

"Xiaoting, is it a disaster for a woman to hit her shirt?" He asked in a low voice.

Huo Xiaoting still maintained a smile on his face, and nodded awkwardly at him.

Lu Hancheng pursed his lips in a matter-of-fact manner, but his eyes were stunned, and he said: "But this dress, I'm sure there won't be more than two in City A." ”

"That first condensation...... Did you buy it from another country or city? ”

Lu Hancheng shook his head and said in a low voice: "Since it has already been hit, I have to let it go, Xiaoting, stay for a few more minutes, and when the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce arrives to say hello, I will take you out." ”

"Won't it affect the Lu family's business?"

"Heh, it's just a drinking party, don't care."

"Hmm."

The two deliberately avoided Chu Ning, chatted with others for a while, and when they were about to leave, Chu Ning took the initiative to come forward and say hello to Lu Hancheng.

"Mr. Lu, we will meet again so soon." After speaking, she smiled lightly, as if she had evoked the stars in the snowy night sky, but she never looked at Huo Xiaoting in front of her from beginning to end.

Lu Hancheng saw the clue, the polite expression that was still on his face dissipated in an instant, and he didn't open his mouth to reply to Chu Ning, his eyes turned around, he looked at his wife, and said softly: "I'll take you back, there are too many boring people here." ”
