Chapter 677 The Dinner Party is Destined to Not End Peacefully
On the day of the dinner.
In the evening, Yang Lianhai came with a team of men to pick up Yao Tao as promised.
When he saw Yao Tao and Bai Lin wearing cyan and gold dresses, he was silent for half a minute.
The people following Lian Hai were all Yang Lianhai's trusted confidants. When they saw Tao and Bai Lin's attire, they were more shocked than surprised.
Such a bright dress is so eye-catching!
This is totally inconsistent with Yang Lianhai's low-key style.
Yang Lianhai was not wearing a tuxedo. He was still wearing the black uniform of the security chief, long boots, a hat, a straight collar of his shirt, and a cold temperament.
In comparison, although Bai Lin was dressed like a little prince in a nightclub, he looked totally at home standing next to Yao Tao.
"I think Boss Yao did it on purpose." One of his men whispered to his companions.
"Alas, our leader still failed to impress the beauty after all."
"From what you said, our leader has a bright future. He can have any beauty he wants!"
"But I always feel that there may never be another beauty like Boss Yao."
“…That’s true.”
Yang Lianhai pretended not to hear his men's discussion and took Yao Tao and Bai Lin into the banquet venue.
The venue was covered with blood-red carpet, and armed guards stood on both sides of the door.
Petals of various colors were scattered on the ground at the entrance.
Yao Tao caught one with her hand and found that it was actually a real flower.
In the end times, ordinary flowers can still be planted, just for viewing or to create an atmosphere.
It seems that the life of the senior staff in the Ark is far more luxurious than people imagine.
Resources are used to cultivate these plants that have no edible value and are simply beautiful.
If we plant vegetables or fruits, or even herbs instead, more lives will be saved instead of leaving these flowers on the ground for people to walk on.
"It's time to end this extravagant life." Yang Lianhai said in a voice that only the two of them could hear. "Believe me, I will never be corrupted by this kind of life."
Yao Tao smiled at Yang Lianhai and said, "I hope you can keep your promise."
Although Yang Lianhai is very ambitious, he is indeed much more honest than those in the Ark's senior management.
Take the clothes he usually wears for example, his shirts are always half-worn, washed very clean, and he wears them neatly and smartly.
The three of them walked into the venue.
Wu Jun had arrived a long time ago and waved to them from afar.
"Hahaha, Yao Tao, why are you dressed like this? It's so eye-catching..." Wu Jun is indeed a straight man. It is rare to hear a good word from him.
Yao Tao listened with a smile and pointed at Bai Lin standing beside her. "Do you think he's wearing something bright?"
Wu Jun was instantly speechless, his eyes widening as if he had seen a ghost, "No...you...Old Yang, are you crazy? Why did you bring him here too?"
Yang Lianhai looked straight ahead, "Yao Tao said she wanted to bring Bai Lin to play, so she came along."
Wu Jun was facing a formidable enemy, "Are you crazy?"
"Well, I'm crazy." Yang Lianhai had to admit that agreeing to Yao Tao's request was a crazy thing in itself.
Other guests arrived one after another.
Yao Tao and Bai Lin stood near the window.
Bai Lin looked here and there curiously.
The band played music, and from time to time waiters passed by them with trays of drinks, politely asking if they needed anything.
Wu Jun ordered a glass of wine.
Yang Lianhai didn't ask for any wine, he just took a glass of water.
Yao Tao ordered two glasses of juice.
Wu Jun looked at the water and juice in their hands with disdain, "It's a rare occasion for us to come to this kind of occasion, can you please have something good to drink?"
"What is that?" Bai Lin stared at the wine glass in Wu Jun's hand curiously.
"It's wine." Yao Tao explained, "If you drink too much, people will go crazy."
Bai Lin remembered something, "Just like what they drank when they were pretending to be dead dogs in the base last time?"
Wu Jun and his team were drunk as hell at Yao Tao's base last time, and each of them looked like a dead dog.
Thinking of the embarrassing scene, Wu Jun's face turned red and he quietly put down his wine glass.
Yang Lianhai squinted at him and said, "So you think drinking too much is embarrassing. Today is an important occasion. If you dare to drink too much, I will throw you out in the square."
Wu Jun touched his nose embarrassedly and said, "I'll just drink this one."
Just then, the crowd became agitated.
"General Wan is here."
"The President has also arrived."
President Fang Zhou and General Wan walked into the venue one after another.
Their eyes met, sparks of hostility ignited.
Yao Tao knew that this dinner was not destined to end peacefully.
