Chapter 44: Meals and Surprises

"I'm the one organizing this gathering."

AC Xia sat at the tea table, like a leader preparing to speak before the meeting. Everyone sat around the table and began to get into the party.

Xia smokes an e-cigarette, and the e-liquid is Belgian cocoa flavor. Luo Sheng doesn't smoke, because Cheng Yin has experimented with various flavors of e-liquid, so he can quickly sniff out the type of taste.

AC Xia's name is Xia Kecen, he moved to the United States before graduating from college, his family is so rich that he is outstanding, and he is the kind of person that Internet celebrities admire more - wearing sunglasses and a mask at the airport, he will be considered a star and travel in a low-key manner. AC has also become his abbreviated English name. It makes sense for him to appear at this bayside hotel, Roson thought. Seeing that he was covered in name tags—which add up to a good car—this man had the power to entertain everyone in this expensive place. But why did you invite them?

Recalling the time when he was a classmate, AC Xia had a good relationship with none of them.

AC Xia continued: "The party process is like this, everyone has dinner in this hotel, and then we go out to sea as a group, go to the small island in the middle of the bay to have a party, prepare a yacht to escort everyone, and now we will anchor at the dock, but let's enjoy the food here first, you are okay with it." With that, he exhaled a puff of cigarette and smiled as the smoke cleared.

Luo Sheng was really a little different sometimes, he raised his hand and said, "I have doubts. ”

"Please." AC Xia made a gesture to indicate that he would say everything.

"Do you want to stay on the island tonight?" This is just the most obvious of Rason's many questions.

AC Xia nodded and smiled: "Yes." ”

"Is it a desert island? I haven't been up. Zhao Zhou, who was sitting on Luo Sheng's left, asked. After he greeted Luo Sheng, he kept talking on the phone, and the content was all about money, "How much ...... will be invested in that project", "Let them put another ......", "Arrange for their accounting analyst to meet with me, preferably tomorrow ......" It doesn't look like he's doing a big project, Luo Sheng speculated, but the content of the call showed the style of a holding company CEO. Those calls were either made by him or came in, and they were quite busy. It didn't stop a little until just now. Maybe Zhao Zhou is also rich in oil, but he is low-key, not as prominent as AC Xia.

Xia's smiling face added a bit of mystery: "It's not a desert island, there are surprises on it." ”

"What surprise?"

This was asked by Lin Wan with a sweet voice, she sat on Luo Sheng's right, and kept leaning on Kang Xin beside her, very reluctant. Kang Xin, who was leaning on her, had an expression of "baby, I will always love you". These two people are not sticky enough to use the word reluctance, Luo Sheng thought about it, it should be described as obsession. Or that the two are ecstatic to each other, and they are inseparable. And just now, Lin Yun also announced to everyone that she and Kang Xin are lovers.

Therefore, lovers sit together to show affection, up and down, left and right, and show every minute. Luo Sheng nodded in his heart - torture a single dog!

"Since it's a surprise, you can't say it." AC Natsu shrugged, he had always been a smiling face with a lot of ambition. It feels like he paid for the construction of this bay hotel.

"Okay, just don't scare me." Lin Wan hugged Kang Xin's arm, as if this hand had fished her out of the abyss.

Luo Sheng silently observed, among the 9 people, 6 people who spoke were still active, at least not as raw as when they were in school, maybe everyone has grown up, is familiar with the times, and understands the importance of interpersonal mutual benefit. And the remaining 3 people, in addition to Luo Sheng and Fenghua's peerless daughter, there is one who has never opened his mouth to speak, that is, sitting between Lin Wan and Luo Sheng, Xiao Lan.

I'm afraid this girl is a little too quiet. When Luo Sheng came in, she greeted him only quietly and nodded, not even smiling, like a sculpture that could blink its eyes. Luo Sheng noticed that she had been holding a small black book in her hand - a black book with a leather cover and gilded edges, the size of a palm. Without thinking about it, Luo Sheng immediately understood after a glance that it was a Bible.

It's getting weirder! Why did AC Xia invite these students to dinner at a hotel whose star rating of seven or eight stars could not be measured, and then go to the island to party...... Luo Sheng was indescribably puzzled. I can't see it in the eyes of others, but in Luo Sheng's eyes, AC Xia used to only associate with like-minded people, like Kang Xin and Xiao Lan, he didn't even talk to people in school. And Xiao Lan's expression always made Luo Sheng feel that she didn't want to come at all, let alone go to the island to have a party.

Why? Please give a reasonable explanation? Luo Sheng asked himself. Wooing relationships? But with someone as rich as AC Xia who can help Syrian refugees, does he need to win over people like Xiao Lan, Li Bao, and Luo Sheng himself? If you think about it, there are only two answers: it's not fun, it's purposeful.

Let's think that Xia is purely for fun, like the emperor flopping, put the names of all his classmates in the big disc, and then flip a few random cards with high interest, "It's just a few of them, call and make an appointment to talk." "I'm afraid that's the case, Luo Sheng secretly speculated.

But if it is "purposeful", Luo Sheng is very curious about this strange purpose. He must play until the end of the party to see what Natsu is for.

Thinking about it, inadvertently, Luo Sheng looked at the peerless daughter of Fenghua again, she was sitting next to Xia, and there were three people between Luo Sheng, Ke Wei, Li Bao, and Zhao Zhou. He looked at her again, it was weird. The pair of apricot eyes with autumn water, the long eyelashes are upturned like butterfly wings, the dark black pupils are better than the two most shining black gems, and the whole face is the masterpiece of the Danqing Holy Hand...... Is Meicheng allowed by law? Luo Sheng retracted his gaze, he felt his cheeks burn when he was stared at by the peerless woman of Fenghua, and why every time he looked at this woman, she happened to be looking at him.

This woman may be the female companion brought by AC Xia, or Zhao Zhou. But she sits next to Xia, and she is so beautiful that she is lawless, and the man who can feed this kind of woman, I am afraid that the only one in this group of people can meet the requirements is Xia Kecen.

"Then let's go eat now, I'm hungry, the location of the restaurant still needs to be walked a little way, please come with me."

AC Xia stood up, and everyone followed suit. There is really a leader, or this place is really funded by him, otherwise no matter how you talk, it will look like a host. Luo Sheng sighed secretly, and then he followed the crowd to the restaurant in the East Palace.

On the way to the restaurant, Luo Sheng and Xiao Lan walked at the end of the crowd. Luo Sheng wanted to find something to talk about with this religious woman, and he could talk a little bit about religious knowledge. After all, during his time in the institute, Luo Sheng was no stranger to the "existence of God". Just talk to her about this all-knowing, all-powerful and all-good god, Xiao Lan will definitely be interested. He really didn't want to look at this girl alone.

As soon as he wanted to speak, Luo Sheng found that Xiao Lan had been staring ahead, staring at him, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes...... Luo Sheng followed her line of sight and looked over, and there were just other classmates in front of him. Due to the long and narrow walkway, the two sides are built with vines and plants to form a green tunnel, Luo Sheng saw the front from the end, except for a few of them, there were no other guests, and even the number of people was clear at a glance.

What is she looking at? And with that kind of look...... Luo Sheng turned his head to face Xiao Lan, and the other party also seemed to be aware of it and turned his head to look at him at the same time, at this moment, Luo Sheng was shocked. Xiao Lan's face was extremely pale, as if someone had just drained her blood.

"Are you alright?" Luo Sheng asked with concern.

Xiao Lan looked at Luo Sheng and paused for a long time, then she shook her head, didn't say anything, and moved her gaze to her toes, her mouth pursed. The Bible was also clung to in his arms.
