As we mentioned before, Ye Yuxiao belongs to Jane Eyre, a person who can rigorously and objectively examine his own heart and correct his own mental trajectory.
Ye Yuxiao once questioned herself more than once what her feelings for Lu Chen were.
Although she has a vague impression of Lu Chen, she can't explain it clearly, but Ye Yuxiao will not be like a naΓ―ve little girl who classifies all vague feelings as love.
The results of this cultivation are not small, Dongfang Bai ate shit luck, and found a D-class monster that was almost the limit of its lifespan, and one person solved it with an axe, and proudly estimated how much the crystal nucleus could be sold for. Dongfang Bai stroked the steering wheel, his face intoxicated, as if this wave rider worth more than three million had become his private car.
In the relatively closed space of the car, the uncle's addiction to smoking came up again, but he was not too embarrassed to smoke, so he had to lean on the seat with his eyes closed, and rubbed his neck with the back of the chair from time to time, trying to divert his attention.
Lin Hao sat beside Hai Yu, and the two were silent together, in a daze.
Haiyue saw that no one was talking to her, so she had to play mobile games sullenly. Since her last battle in Guangzhou, she has decided not to play Plants vs. Zombies anymore. Now the second princess has found a game with a higher IQ than the whack-a-mole, and she has a lot of fun.
Ye Yuxiao sat on the co-pilot with her eyes closed, thinking quietly, but there was not much turbulence in her heart, just a little salty taste.
Just now, Arthur called himself, saying that he was going to hold a charity dinner at the Oriental Pearl tonight, and asked Ye Yuxiao if he wanted to go with him.
Ye Yuxiao was ready to take this opportunity to understand the matter with Arthur, but she was afraid that Lu Chen's careful eyes would know and be cranky, so she had to call Lu Chen.
"Hey, Captain, what's the matter?" Lu Chen said as he smeared shampoo on his hair and tucked his phone between his face and shoulders.
"What are you doing? Ye Yuxiao heard the sound of water rushing on Lu Chen's side, and unconsciously thought of a somewhat discordant picture, her pretty face flushed, and she said busily.
"Take a shower. Suddenly, Lu Chen's humble voice came from the other end of the phone, "Captain, you didn't think about it." β
"Cut, self-inflicted. Ye Yuxiao was still a little weak when she said this.
Lu Chen grabbed his hair so that the shampoo could fully contact his scalp, and his tone became serious: "What's the matter?"
"Tonight Arthur invited me to a charity gala at the Oriental Pearl, and I was going to explain it to him, but I was afraid that someone would know what he was thinking, so I asked someone if they wanted to go with him. β
On the phone, someone brazenly said: "Originally, I didn't want to go, but how can I rest assured that you are a girl walking at night and the lights are blind, let's go with you." β
Ye Yuxiao looked up at the big sun hanging on the canopy outside the car window, and couldn't cry or laugh.
βββββββββββ
At eight o'clock in the evening, in this "night of blind fire with black lights", Lu Chen and Ye Yuxiao met in front of the entrance of the Oriental Pearl. Lu Chen found that Ye Yuxiao was obviously haggard and thinner again, and he couldn't help but feel a little unbearable. remembered that he had sparks with Xia Qiu and Yang Zihui in the short half month that Ye Yuxiao was away, and one of them was directly pushed. Lu Chen shook his head helplessly, woman, trouble.
"You've lost weight. Lu Chen said softly.
Ye Yuxiao pursed her lips and was noncommittal.
"Let's go, someone. Ye Yuxiao said, taking the lead towards the entrance.
"Ahh Lu Chen hurriedly chased after him and grabbed Ye Yuxiao's little hand.
Ye Yuxiao's body trembled, the roots of her ears were slightly red, but she didn't struggle, let him pull it, and the two walked into the Oriental Pearl Tower together.
The venue is arranged inside a medium-sized ball at an altitude of 293 meters above the ground, and the 360Β° circumferential viewing platform allows visitors to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Oriental City that never sleeps.
Today's charity dinner gathered almost all the heavyweights in Shanghai's political and business circles.
"What is that Arthur's house for?" Lu Chen cautiously inquired.
"Rich second generation. β
Lu Chen nodded reassuringly: "It's okay, I'm also a rich second generation." β
Ye Yuxiao was speechless for a while, so she had to take Lu Chen's big hand and walk towards the center of the venue.
"Eh, now I feel sick when I see high-rise buildings, grandma's, once bitten by a snake for ten years, afraid of the well rope. Lu Chen tried not to look outside.
Ye Yuxiao said with a smile: "When I jumped down with you, you already fainted, okay, the most exciting and painful thing is for me to bear for you." β
Lu Chen was shocked: "You hold me?" Lu Chen really didn't delve into the process after fainting afterwards, only knowing that Ye Yuxiao fell downstairs with him and the frightening wind. Lu Chen always thought that Ye Yuxiao still had a rope tied to him.
Ye Yuxiao's face flushed, and she took a sip: "Don't be sentimental, I was a rope at that time." β
Lu Chen said with an ambiguous expression: "Then have you taken the opportunity to take advantage of me?" Don't be afraid, I won't dig into it." β
"Arthur!" Ye Yuxiao finally found Arthur Atlantis and shouted.
The moment Arthur turned around, his originally extremely surprised expression instantly froze, and then disintegrated little by little, and finally became quite decadent. He walked towards Ye Yuxiao, trying not to look at the demonic man next to Ye Yuxiao. This is also called, once bitten by a snake for ten years afraid of the well rope.
"Yuxiao, is there anything wrong?" Arthur asked politely, since he couldn't beat this man, don't compete with him in force, but with him in terms of quality and connotation.
Unfortunately, this guy on the other side still has a little aristocratic temperament under a cynical skin. After all, the old lady is already so powerful that it cannot be replicated, thinking that back then, Luo Qingya and Lu Chen's sister-in-law, Luo Qingyan, who was also Luo Qingya's own sister, was known as the twin stars of the upper-level family, which was really a smile to charm all beings.
Among them, the elder sister was accepted by Lu Chen's father, and the younger sister still maintains her single plan. Lu Chen once asked his aunt why she didn't get married, but she almost had her ears pulled out by her aunt, boy, are you so unkind to see your aunt?
"Arthur, I actually have something to tell you clearly. Ye Yuxiao said with some embarrassment, trying to be as tactful as possible, not wanting to hurt Arthur's self-esteem.
Arthur already had a bad premonition. At this moment, the lights dimmed and the surrounding glass curtain wall turned black, with only a spotlight shining in the center of the venue.
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming to our home for the 'Love for ALS Patients and Ice Bucket Challenge' charity gala. I'm the host, Ho Ka Ming. Lu Chen looked at the sexy stunner in a brown evening dress on the stage, and thought to himself, I look much better than on TV.
The sexy woman pouted with a faint smile, bent slightly towards everyone, the outline of her breasts was plump and prominent, and many men came to feel it for a while.
"The campaign was launched by the Ways Charitable Foundation to raise awareness of ALS patients. Tonight, we will donate by anonymous donation to show our love for ALS patients. At the end of the event, one person will be drawn from among the fundraisers for the newly released Wings of Light 2114 Commemorative Edition of no more than 10 vehicles worldwide.
The curtain was lifted, and on the high platform, a cool supercar appeared in front of everyone. The Wings of Light 2114 Commemorative Edition, which is not for sale, has exceeded 10 million Bright coins internally, and the price of speculation is getting higher and higher.
The gold shiny alloy shell, the bold lines that are more domineering and bold than the Lamborghini, the transmission system and engine that are more superior and powerful than the Ferrari, and the aristocratic temperament that is more dazzling than the Rolls-Royce, the top speed can reach 300 kilometers per hour, and the acceleration to 100 kilometers can take only 1.7 seconds.
Lu Chen swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
As a well-known host today, He Jiaming is not only excellent in appearance and dusty temperament, but also talented and in control of the scene.
She invited several men and women to the stage to play a few small games that were not complicated but full of fun, and the atmosphere of the scene was quickly mobilized. The next ice bucket challenge pushed the atmosphere of the scene to **, accompanied by the screams stimulated by the ice water, everyone's adrenaline was soaring.
Darkness is always full of charm, indulgence, and depravity.
