The night is already dark.
The crowd in the hall gradually dispersed, and some guests just said goodbye to their hosts and left by car.
Some people still stay in the hall and spend the night in guest rooms here. This group of people are often those who have the closest connection with Jianyan Group and Xie Jianye's business, or they have negotiated cooperation and established connections with others at the banquet, so they are ready to take this opportunity to have a night chat.
Therefore, the voices of well-dressed men and women chatting and laughing in low voices did not stop, the waiters walking carrying wine glasses did not stop, and the melodious piano music wandering around did not end here.
Now it is time for the good children to go to bed, but the banquet is still far from over. The time in the hall seems long at this moment due to the continuous extension of personal senses.
And some people can't wait any longer.
"Aha……"
Qiu Qimeng's lips and teeth breathed out an ambiguous breath that aroused reverie. She sighed and put down the wine glass in her hand.
A faint blush appeared on that beautiful face, making people slightly intoxicated like the pure red wine in the glass. It exuded a mature fragrance and looked more and more radiant and eye-catching.
But women themselves know that this is just a purely physiological phenomenon. In fact, alcohol has no effect on her superhuman physique, nor will it affect her brain's thinking ability and judgment.
Under normal circumstances, she was always calm, calmer than anyone else.
unless……
At certain rare moments, she would feel impatient, extremely anxious, and restless, wishing that time in the real world could pass as quickly as the images after pressing the double-speed button on the projector.
Everyone has those moments, right? When they face something unknown that is coming, and it is likely to be something they have been waiting for and longed for for a long time——
For Qiu Qimeng, this moment is now.
My heart is pounding, as if I'm in love.
She poured herself another glass of red wine and drank it in one gulp. The cold liquid flowed down her mouth and throat to the inside of her body, but it could not extinguish the fire burning in her heart.
Rather, adding wine to the fire will only make the fire burn hotter and stronger.
After being convinced of this, Qiu Qimeng no longer hesitated, placed the goblet on the table, stood up and prepared to leave.
She was walking in the direction of her target. At this moment, a young man in a suit and leather shoes walked quickly from the side and blocked her way.
"Hello, Miss Qiu."
The other party greeted her politely.
Qiu Qimeng raised her eyebrows.
"Who are you?"
"I am the director of Zhongrui Boyang International Investment Management Co., Ltd.," said the young man in neat clothes and handsome appearance. The smile on his face revealed an innate confidence, "This is my business card."
He handed over his business card and said with a smile:
"In the past, the business group I was responsible for had exchanges with Pan-Asia Medical where Ms. Qiu worked."
After Qiu Qimeng said "Oh", she didn't answer and just stared at him quietly.
There are no calluses on his ten fingers. He is the type who has been pampered since childhood, and he must not have to worry about his current job... He is wearing a custom-made suit, tie and pocket square from the same well-known designer brand... The pants and leather shoes are spotless, which means that they travel in the car and have a driver to pick them up... Although they are covered up with makeup, the corners of their eyes are black and black, and they are suspected of overindulgence... The physique is thin and weak compared to the frame, with insufficient muscle mass, and has not been through Specialized training…
And the most important place is the eyes.
Eyes are the windows to the soul. You can know what kind of person a person is just by looking at them. They are a way for each other to confirm the identity of the same kind.
Those with firm beliefs, those who are brave, those who are inactive, those who are cowardly, those with evil intentions, those who are empty and lonely, those who are fanatics, those who have murderous intentions, those who have evil thoughts, those who have malicious intentions——
The woman's sharp eyes looked up and down, and finally fell on those evasive pupils, and she quickly concluded that this was an insignificant little person who didn't need to be taken care of.
…
On the other side, the young man's expression was a little stiff.
Generally speaking, as long as he announces his identity and tells a few interesting stories about his financial resources and family background in the shopping mall, any woman he wants to talk to will be attracted, and these words are not false. He does have this capital - if a woman with some discernment can recognize the price represented by the brand of clothes and watches and other decorations on her body, it will be the other party's turn to pay the price.
...No matter what happens, even if the other person's background is better than yours? If you have a powerful family background, you won’t be completely unresponsive, right? Apart from his family background, his appearance has been carefully managed to be considered handsome. The combination of the two is enough to make him unfavorable in love, but today he hit a snag.
Moreover, he always felt that this woman's eyes were strange.
When joking with his friends who are also playboys and rich men, he often said that people like them who are accustomed to hunting for beauty treat the opposite sex like hunters eyeing their prey, so they can naturally recognize others. Hunter; but the other person's eyes... are even worse than that,
There is no desire or even emotion in it, only a terrible calmness.
Just like a killer.
Or...a true femme fatale.
"...my father is the head office president of Tianhai Bank..."
His tone became timid, and he unknowingly used his trump card.
"I see."
Qiu Qimeng nodded and interrupted the other party's words. She had no patience to listen anymore and walked straight past the other party.
In her eyes, she could only see the only goal.
The young man opened his mouth wide and could only stand there awkwardly, watching the other person's back curl away.
…
"Hello."
Yan Jingxing was filling his stomach with juice when he heard the hoarse mature female voice above his head. He was a little startled and almost choked and coughed.
There is no other reason why Yan Jingxing is uneasy except the silent and oppressive low-pressure atmosphere coming from the girl next to him who has just become his fiancée...
However, even if I asked her what was wrong and why she was unhappy, she never got a response.
Yan Jingxing started to feel a headache.
Of course, what he didn't understand, who was still just a junior high school student and had never had the opportunity to interact with girls in the past, was that what he was facing now was the ultimate question that almost every man with a partner in the world would think about -
"What on earth is she thinking about now?"
Fortunately, Miss Xie is not an unreasonable person. Although she is a genuine young lady, she has never shown any willful habits. No matter how she speaks or behaves, she is always well-founded.
...So, he can actually guess why Xie Yuzhi is rarely in such an awkward situation at this moment——
Yan Jingxing raised his head.
He was originally shocked by the oppressive beauty of this "uninvited guest" who suddenly appeared. He would blush after looking at her for a while, and he always felt like he couldn't look at her; but now, he had to take a closer look.
Because the eldest sister in front of me is the "culprit".
"I originally wanted to wait until the banquet is over and come to chat with you again."
The eldest sister said to him with a smile. She was still as close as before, as if she didn't understand what social distance meant at all. Another rich and delicious fragrance that was completely different from Yuzhi's smell surrounded him, making his nose itchy.
"But I can't wait any longer."
The tone of her voice was lazy, but it also sounded pleasant.
The lights near the corner were dim, and the woman's words and the fragrance emanating from her body intertwined to create a hazy atmosphere. Her white palms gently rested on the table, like some ambiguous hint——
...It must be an illusion! Yan Jingxing shuddered and shook his head vigorously.
Boys of my age tend to have random thoughts. After tossing and turning at night during this period, he was very conscious of this.
"I see you two are always bored here, don't you think?"
"I……"
"No need to hide it, I can tell just by looking at your eyes."
The eldest sister smiled and tapped the corner of her eye. Yan Jingxing noticed that she also wore eye shadow, which looked like a crimson blade when she raised it slightly.
"Come on, leave them alone, let's go out and talk."
Yan Jingxing took a deep breath, tried to control his heartbeat, and cast an inquiring look at the girl next to him.
Miss Xie had no expression on her face, but she still nodded slightly in agreement.
"Okay, let's go."
Yan Jingxing took Xie Yuzhi's little hand, and they stood up together.
The conversation that follows belongs to another world that ordinary people cannot know, let alone participate in.
"Great, let's go."
Qiu Qimeng's face burst into a delighted smile.
Just as she turned around to leave, her body suddenly swayed slightly, and she was about to lose her balance.
Yan Jingxing's nerve reflexes were much faster than his brain's thinking, and he subconsciously reached out to hold the woman's waist.
Through a thin layer of fabric and platinum hair, you can still clearly feel the elastic skin sucking his palm like magic.
The soft and hot body fell on him for a moment, but the other person quickly adjusted his posture and stood upright again.
"Ah, thank you... Even though I have taken classes, I am still not used to this outfit."
The woman muttered.
"It's really too tight, and I'm afraid it will break if I apply any force. It's inconvenient to even sit down, so I can only stand like a puppet to show people... Who the hell is this idiot who designed this kind of clothes?"
The boy didn't hear his elder sister's words clearly at all, his attention was completely distracted by the sudden glimpse just now. His gaze was uncontrollably directed toward the deep white ravine on the woman's chest. The bright red gauze fabric could not hide the thrilling curves. The graceful body wrapped in the goldfish tail dress seemed to have endless heat...
"No, it's okay."
Yan Jingxing blushed completely.
He heard someone grinding his teeth next to him, and when he turned around, he found that Miss Xie still had the same expressionless look on her face, as if the voice just now was his hallucination.
