Chapter 166, Evening Party
I don't like socializing, and it doesn't change whether my brain is blank or stuffed.
Standing in front of the dressing mirror, I frowned and looked at myself in the mirror, the dark purple dress and long skirt lined my complexion whiter, the long hair pulled up casually fell a few locks on my shoulders, the slender and tight neck and snow-white shoulders were exposed, although the spring was strong, but I trembled from the bottom of my heart, and I still felt a little flustered.
When I received a call from Wu Yue after work, he said that he would wait for me at the door of the company, and then take me directly to this famous store and let me choose the right evening dress by myself.
"You're my girlfriend, so you're naturally going to be the center of attention tonight." He was smiling, but the emotions surging in his eyes were the same as those of Chu Jun today, so that I couldn't understand or read them at all.
In a hurry, I secretly called Ling Kai and told him what happened today, and after the amnesia, I couldn't believe anyone except him.
On the other end of the phone, he was silent for a long time before saying, "It doesn't matter, since it's for work, you can go." ”
"It's so beautiful," Wu Yue's voice suddenly came from behind me, startling me, and hurriedly pulled back my distant thoughts, I showed an uneasy smile at him, glanced sideways at my almost half-exposed back in the mirror, and mustered up the courage to ask him, "Mr. Wu, tonight's banquet ...... Can I ...... Can you not go? ”
He raised his eyebrows, put his hands in his trouser pockets and looked at me leisurely, ruthlessly refusing, "No." ”
My smile instantly froze on my face, and my eyes unconsciously fell on his soft, ruddy but thin lips, and they all said that the man with thin lips was ruthless, and he really didn't deceive me.
When I drove to Mr. Huang's villa in the suburbs, my hands were always tightly grasping the straps of my handbag, my eyes were always looking straight ahead, my palms were full of sweat, and my body was sitting stiff and straight.
Wu Yue, who had been speechless all the way, stopped at a red light intersection and suddenly turned his head to me and asked, "Are you not feeling well today?" Why is your face pale? Sweaty forehead all the time? ”
"Huh? Have it? I turned my head to look at him, and saw my pale face and sweat beads in his pupils, and quickly took out a tissue and makeup mirror from my bag, and carefully wiped the sweat beads from my forehead, so as not to mess with the delicate makeup that took an hour to draw.
I have to admit that I have put on makeup and I am bright and moving, noble and elegant, but who understands the tension and uneasiness in my heart? Noble is such a thing, and it really can't be pretended.
"It's just a birthday party, you don't have to be so nervous." He squinted his eyes, gave me a slightly displeased warning, looked ahead, and stepped on the gas pedal as soon as the light turned green.
Half an hour later, we finally arrived at the villa complex in the middle of the mountain on the outskirts of the southern city, where most of the houses lived were wealthy families, and judging from the famous cars parked on both sides of the road, the scene must be breathtaking.
After getting out of the car, I held Wu Yue nervously, tried to follow his footsteps and walked a short section of cement road, towards Huang's villa covering an area of thousands of square meters, along the road constantly heard the screams of women, and the eyes cast at me from all directions were mostly jealousy, envy, resentment and contempt, my fingers tightened slightly, Wu Yue was aware, and threw me a glance of encouragement, I felt a little at ease.
After entering the gate of the villa, you will be greeted by a crowd of people with jewels and fragrant sideburns, and there are hundreds of tables in the gardens on both sides, and the white balustrades are full of roses, tulips and osmanthus trees.
The smell of wine, flowers, perfume and homemade cakes from the backyard kitchen made me feel a little dizzy and my nose was a little itchy.
The women who passed by me were almost all wearing perfume, and all kinds of smells came to their noses, and their sense of smell was so irritated that they almost sneeze unbearably.
But I always remember that today's party is very important, so I don't dare to relax at all, because it is not only myself who accidentally loses face, but also the entire Rosemoon Group and Wu Yue, an elite man who is very famous in Nancheng and even in China.
If I had swept his face, he would have killed me.
When he was thinking about it, he had been brought to the protagonist, today's birthday star Gong Huang has a wide forehead and broad eyes, half-bald hair, but the skin is smooth and shiny, wearing a straight suit, and greeted him with a smile.
After some cold and noisy introduction, Wu Yue probably thought that I really couldn't cope with this kind of scene, so he simply put aside me to entertain other elites alone, I was overjoyed, and hurriedly pretended to pedal the sky-high leather shoes elegantly, tried to avoid the crowd and hid at the table in the far corner of the courtyard to sit down, while looking around at a wine and pastry on the table, first replenishing the hunger that had been protesting endlessly.
Lunch at twelve o'clock is seven or eight hours away, so it's no wonder if you're not hungry.
While eating, I secretly looked at Wu Yue, who was shuttling through the crowd to deal with more than enough, and thought to myself that those who can be big leaders are really strange people, otherwise how can I fill my stomach with red wine alone? I definitely can't do it. But his eyes swept over the fact that there was only red wine and no other drinks on the table, and the expression on his face was instantly bitter.
God knows how afraid I am of drinking, liquor, beer, red wine, and everything, because I belong to the type of person who pours half a glass, and when I get drunk, I am extremely unsightly, crying and laughing, and I don't want to drink easily.
But there was no choice at the moment, the pastries were so dry that I could barely pour some red wine as a drink to quench my thirst.
After digesting a few exquisite homemade pastries and half a glass of red wine, the hunger was finally gone, I stroked my chest with satisfaction, and after smoothing out the stuffed things in my stomach a little, I just wanted to get up and walk around to move my muscles, when I suddenly heard the same woman's screams and gasps in all directions, and suddenly looked up, I saw most of the people gathered in the middle of the garden, all looking forward to visiting, the scene was no less lively than when Wu Yue brought me in.
Out of gossip and boredom, I also leaned over and tiptoed to look, and between the crowds like rolling waves, a man and a woman could be faintly seen coming together.
The man is wearing a dark purple suit with a silver light, and the woman is wearing a white dress like a wedding dress.
As they approached step by step, the faces of the two gradually came into view, the woman's small face was exquisite, the makeup was thick, and the long burgundy curly hair was lined with bright eyes and teeth on the top of the head, but it was slightly thin.
For some reason, a girl's voice floated in my ears, "My name is Ding Shuyuan, and I am the new president of Zhongtian Group." The suddenness of this voice made me slightly stunned, and my gaze unconsciously shifted from her face to the face of the man she was holding tightly, and I couldn't help but feel shocked when his clear and indifferent facial features came into view.
Ling Kai! Why him?
