Compared to the gloomy situation over there.
Lin Xuqiu felt much more relaxed.
No more countdowns, no more worries.
She looked at herself in the full-length mirror. The close-fitting haute couture dress showed off her slim figure. The hollow design on the back of the dress revealed a smooth and beautiful back. She looked breathtakingly beautiful.
Tonight, she will attend a dinner party with Wen Yanci.
This dinner brought together dignitaries and celebrities from all walks of life in Beijing.
Wen Yanci appeared behind Lin Xuqiu.
Lin Xuqiu looked at Wen Yanci in the mirror and began to give instructions.
"Yan Ci, help me pick a necklace."
The man looked at the various necklaces in the jewelry display cabinet and took out a diamond necklace that best suited his aesthetic taste.
He walked up to Lin Xuqiu, brushed her wavy hair to one side of her shoulder, and then put the necklace around her neck.
He looked at the bright and elegant woman in the full-length mirror and couldn't help but praise her.
"Xuqiu, you look so beautiful tonight. If you weren't going out soon, I'd really like to tear your evening gown off right now."
Lin Xuqiu glared at the man in the mirror.
Then, the two went downstairs together.
At the dinner party.
As soon as Wen Yanci appeared, he attracted a lot of people's attention.
Everyone wanted to take this opportunity to talk to him.
Wen Yanci was rather indifferent to this and had no intention of talking to them.
This is the reality. When the status is unequal, trying too hard will not get a response.
Lin Xuqiu followed Wen Yanci and walked into the main venue.
At this time a voice sounded.
"Yanci."
Lin Xuqiu raised his eyes and looked at the person who came.
The man had fair skin but did not look sickly, with delicate features. He wore a silver-gray suit with a light blue plaid shirt underneath. He had a well-proportioned figure and walked with long legs.
Lin Xuqiu looked at the man's face and felt an indescribable sense of familiarity.
Wen Yanci couldn't help but frown when he saw her staring at another man in a daze.
He couldn't help but use some force to hold her hand, and Lin Xuqiu finally came to his senses.
The man walked up to them and patted Wen Yanci's shoulder affectionately.
"Yanci, long time no see."
"Ayu, long time no see, when did you return home?"
"I just got back home yesterday. I originally wanted to invite you guys to get together, but I got jet-lagged and a little uncomfortable with the climate, so I postponed the party."
Then the man looked at Lin Xuqiu next to him.
"This must be my sister-in-law."
"Yes, she is Lin Xuqiu."
Afterwards, Wen Yanci introduced this man to Lin Xuqiu.
"Xuqiu, he's my friend Zhou Yu, he just came back from the United States."
Lin Xuqiu smiled politely.
"Hello, Zhou Yu."
"Hello, sister-in-law, just call me Ayu."
When Zhou Yu said this, there was a smile on his lips, his peach blossom eyes sparkled, and he had an indescribable alluring temperament.
Lin Xuqiu felt that he was really familiar and was stunned for a moment.
Wen Yanci coughed twice.
She lost her mind to other men twice, and Wen Yanci felt annoyed.
"I'm sorry, I just have a feeling of déjà vu about Mr. Zhou. Have we met before?"
It would have been fine if Lin Xuqiu hadn't asked, but asking such a question made the situation a bit awkward.
After all, this way of asking the other person whether they have seen each other before is very similar to picking up a conversation.
Zhou Yu's eyes were smiling and his voice was clear and pleasant.
"Sister-in-law is so beautiful. If we meet, I will never forget her."
This means that the two have never met.
Lin Xuqiu also realized that what he had just said was inappropriate, so he smiled politely and stopped talking.
Wen Yanci's expression was not obvious, but the gloom in his eyes could not be concealed.
At this time, another person came over. It was Huang Ziyi, the youngest son of a jewelry tycoon, who had business dealings with Wen Yanci.
The men were chatting, Lin Xuqiu felt bored and didn't want to chat with the ladies present.
So she said something to Wen Yanci and went out to the garden to relax.
Every plant and tree in the garden has been carefully maintained and is very ornamental.
Everyone was inside, there was almost no one outside, only a few servants were there to receive guests.
The garden was very big. She walked farther and farther, and saw clusters of flowers in front of her, so she walked towards them.
As a result, a swing was found. The swing was located in a relatively hidden position. If someone walked towards it, they would have to walk very close to find it.
She sat on a swing and looked up at the stars in the sky.
Her thoughts slowly drifted away.
Suddenly her thoughts were interrupted by a strange sound.
“Gentle…”
"Baby, you're so beautiful..."
Then there was a rustling sound, followed by strange noises.
Lin Xuqiu's expression became strange. Could it be that he had encountered a wild mandarin duck?
But who would be so impatient?
This is a dinner party that gathers the dignitaries in Beijing. Will the people there be short of money to book a room?
Curiosity drove her to slow down her breathing and listen carefully to the conversation between the wild mandarin ducks.
"Let go, let's not meet again."
Then there was a very soft sobbing sound.
"No, Yun'er, you are mine..."
Lin Xuqiu felt uncomfortable listening to the intermittent conversation.
She really wanted to leave, but if she left now, it would definitely alarm the wild mandarin ducks.
So she could only endure it.
Fortunately, they were quite fast.
The man and woman walked out from the rockery behind, and Lin Xuqiu quickly hid inside.
As long as they don't walk this way, they can hardly see her.
Lin Xuqiu was so curious that he stretched his head out to look at the two of them.
