Chapter 39 Dinner

The group of people waiting outside the door, led by Xiao Chen, all looked over when they heard the noise, and several low gasps were heard.

The moment Xiao Chen saw Lin Luo, he was stunned, his breathing became a little disordered, and he couldn't suppress the astonishment in his eyes. The person in front of him had skin whiter than snow, slightly upturned red lips, and a temperament between charm and purity.

Feeling the astonished gazes on Lin Luo from all around, Xiao Chen's aura turned cold. He walked towards Lin Luo, intentionally or unintentionally blocking the prying eyes of others.

Xiao Chen changed into a formal black suit. He looked cool and abstinent. The well-fitting suit highlighted Xiao Chen's sturdy figure. He was tall and handsome. Lin Luo was stunned.

Xiao Chen looked at the little woman who was staring at him blankly with amusement, then he put his arm around her slender waist with a domineering and possessive attitude and led her to the dinner venue.

The dinner was held at a five-star hotel not far from where they lived, just a short walk away.

Lan Kexin wore a purple evening gown that day, which made her look ethereal, beautiful and elegant. Her whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of light. She looked at the two people in front of her with complicated eyes, and she couldn't help feeling lost and unnoticed jealousy in her heart.

She felt that this shouldn't be the case. The seat next to Xiao Chen belonged to her, but in fact, her careful dressing could not even win a glance from Xiao Chen. Why was this so? Confusion welled up in Lan Kexin's eyes.

Xue Ci looked at Lan Kexin's eyes following another man, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes. No matter how hard he tried, she would never raise her head to see him.

Luo Yueyue and Liang Chuan followed the large group hand in hand sweetly, their voices filled with laughter all the way, which formed a sharp contrast with the low pressure on Xue Ci and Lan Kexin's side.

Upon entering the banquet hall, the sight of the resplendent banquet, the dazzling lights, the extravagant lifestyle, and the jaw-dropping extravagance of the event made Lin Luo and Xiao Chen's eyes turn cold. They thought of the ordinary people outside, dressed in rags, barely able to get enough to eat. It truly lived up to the saying that while the rich feast, the poor freeze to death on the streets. This Chu Jin, as the base commander, was truly inhuman, pursuing only pleasure and disregarding the lives of ordinary people.

In the banquet hall, everyone's eyes were on Xiao Chen and Lin Luo. The combination of handsome men and beautiful women amazed everyone. Xiao Chen was unhappy with others' eyes on Lin Luo, so he looked at them one by one and warned them. The coldness on his body made people feel frozen. After seeing those eyes move away from Lin Luo.

He leaned over and whispered in Lin Luo's ear, "Lolo, you're so attractive. I really want to lock you up and not show you to anyone."

Lin Luo blushed and thought to herself, who is hiring? Didn’t she see that the eyes of the women at the party were almost glued to him?

Lin Luo pinched the soft flesh on Xiao Chen's waist in dissatisfaction, causing Xiao Chen to hiss softly. He wrapped Lin Luo's rebellious little hand and hugged her as they walked inside.

When Chu Jin saw Xiao Chen coming, he hurriedly led a group of base senior executives over to greet him. This dinner not only had people from the Southern Base, but also people from the Eastern Base and Western Base who had arrived earlier.

Seeing that Xiao Chen was busy dealing with senior executives, Lin Luo gestured to Xiao Chen that she would go find something to eat, then turned and walked towards the dessert area.

Chu Ji looked at Lin Luo's leaving back with fascination, turned around and followed quietly. He had been fascinated by her the moment Lin Luo walked in. Thinking that it would be very intoxicating to taste this woman after he got her, he couldn't wait.

Lin Luo looked at the tempting desserts in front of her, her mouth almost watering. She picked out a few pieces she liked and found an empty corner to savor them carefully.

"Beauty, I wonder if I would have the honor to ask you to dance with me." Seeing Lin Luo who was alone, Chu Ji couldn't help but go up to invite her.

Lin Luo frowned when he saw the fat, greasy face. Who else could this be but the disgusting man he had seen every day?

"Sorry, I'm not interested." Lin Luo said while suppressing his nausea. The cake in his mouth no longer tasted good and was really disgusting.

When Chu Ji saw that Lin Luo didn't give him face, the smile on his face froze. He secretly hated the woman in front of him for being ungrateful. Just wait and see, wait until he gets her, and then see how he will deal with her.

"Beauty, you can't say that. Maybe you'll get interested while we're dancing." As he said that, he reached out his dirty hands to touch Lin Luo's face.

Lin Luo's face turned cold, and with a crisp "snap", he ruthlessly slapped away Chu Ji's outstretched hand.

Chu Ji was so angry that he wanted to teach this ungrateful woman a lesson without hesitation.
