Chapter 229 The Woman Who Appears at the End
The social gathering was held in the afternoon. When Lu Chen and Xu Nuo arrived, there were already quite a few single young officers sitting in the auditorium.
At a glance, it was full of people.
Along with a shout of "Stand up," a resounding voice echoed throughout the auditorium: "Captain! Hello!!"
The sound was so loud that Xu Nuo couldn't help but want to cover his ears.
"Please sit down!" Lu Chen raised his hand, motioning everyone to sit down.
Then, he looked around the auditorium. The ceiling of the auditorium was hung with colorful hydrangeas and lace, and it looked lively.
There were four or five rows of tables and chairs around the auditorium. In addition to tea and fruit, there were also a lot of peanuts, melon seeds and candies on the tables.
The dance floor is located right in the center of the auditorium. The soldier in charge of the sound system has already prepared the tapes and is ready to press the music play button as soon as the leader announces the start.
"How is it, Lao Lu?" Liao Qing walked over and asked.
"Not bad." Lu Chen nodded slightly to show his approval, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. Why is it hard at all?" He looked down at the time. "It's half past one. I guess the female comrades will be here soon."
"What time does it start?"
"Two o'clock."
“No hurry.”
"I met quite a few girls who came here this time. They are all good-looking and dignified." Before the meeting started, Liao Qing started chatting with Lu Chen.
"Yeah." Lu Chen raised his hand and adjusted his collar. "If we can form a few couples, our work will not be in vain."
"Of course!" Liao Qing was full of confidence. "We have many excellent officers, and the female comrades in those units are also very good. I believe it will be successful."
"It couldn't be better." Lu Chen said.
"By the way, today's opening dance depends on you two." Liao Qing said, "Whether the atmosphere is lively or not depends on how well you lead it."
Lu Chen glanced at him and said, "I heard that Sister Qiu Ning has also been practicing. Why don't we practice together?"
Liao Qing waved her hands repeatedly: "She can't do it, and neither can I. After a dance, her high heels almost poked a hole in my foot. So, this glorious and arduous task is handed over to you."
Lu Chen curled his lips: "Okay."
While the two were talking, female comrades had already started to enter the venue one after another.
Xu Nuo saw Li Cuiying, Liao Hong, and even Zhuang Tian came in.
She saw Zhuang Tian, and Zhuang Tian saw her too.
The two people's eyes met in the air. Zhuang Tian said nothing and silently withdrew his gaze.
Don't cause trouble, this was Zheng Huangen's warning to her.
She came here for a blind date today, not to be angry with Xu Nuo.
Soon, Jin Yue came in. When she saw Xu Nuo, she was happy and excited. She waved at Xu Nuo excitedly like a child.
Xu Nuo also responded to her enthusiastically and gestured for her to choose a conspicuous seat and sit down first.
The person following Jin Yue was none other than Lin Ya.
The moment he saw Lin Ya, Xu Nuo raised his hand and greeted her.
But Lin Ya turned her head away, as if she didn't see her.
Xu Nuo was stunned for a moment.
Her performance today was completely different from her performance in front of Lu Chen that day.
"What are you looking at?" Lu Chen pulled Xu Nuo to sit down and stuffed two peeled orange slices into her hands.
"I saw Lin Ya." Xu Nuo said.
"Lin Ya? Why is she here?" Lu Chen also had this question.
Lin Ya and Lu Kun are in love, and this is a blind date for single young people, what is she doing here?
"I don't know either. You can see for yourself." Xu Nuo pointed to where Lin Ya was from a distance.
Lu Chen looked over.
He saw Lin Ya, and Lin Ya saw him.
Lin Ya smiled at him and then looked away.
"I'll go ask her what's going on." Lu Chen stood up.
Xu Nuo grabbed him and said, "Don't go. Look, Lu Kun is coming."
Lu Chen looked towards the main entrance of the auditorium, and sure enough, Lu Kun came in with an advanced-looking camera hanging around his neck.
"What's going on with these two people?" Liao Qing also discovered something. "Aren't they a couple? Why are they both here? Oh, Lu Kun is not an officer in our army, so why is he here too?"
"I have to ask you this?" Lu Chen glanced at him.
"Then I'll go and find out more about the situation."
"The show is about to start, so let's go after it starts." Lu Chen said, "It's not a big deal. If you didn't ask Lu Kun to come, it might be the intention of Brigade Commander Lu."
"Okay." Liao Qing agreed.
With five minutes left before the show officially began, a bright and flamboyant woman came in from the entrance of the auditorium.
She had delicate makeup on, long black hair, a red sweater on her upper body, a black wool skirt that reached her ankles on her lower body, and a black coat on the outside.
That coat looks exactly the same as the one Xu Nuo is wearing. They must have been bought from the same shopping mall.
She walked with her head held high and her chest puffed out. Her two big red earrings swayed with her steps, and a fragrant breeze blew wherever she passed.
As soon as she came in, she immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Noticing that everyone was looking at her, she smiled sweetly, and the watery and charming look in her eyes could melt anyone.
"Where did this person come from?"
“I don’t know!”
"Oh my God..." Li Cuiying stared at the woman in amazement. Then she looked at the clothes she was wearing and suddenly felt ashamed. "If she comes, will we still have a chance to survive?"
Liao Hong clasped her hands together in front of her chest and begged silently in her heart: "No, no, no, please don't fall for Wu Yue, please don't."
The woman who was the last to appear walked straight towards Lin Ya as soon as she came in.
When she saw that there were people sitting on both sides of Lin Ya, she said to Jin Yue on the side: "Excuse me, can we change seats?"
Jin Yue was still admiring the woman's brightness and beauty when she was suddenly asked to change seats. Without even thinking, she immediately stood up and gave her the seat: "Please, please sit down."
The woman smiled at Jin Yue: "Thank you!"
"You're welcome, you're welcome." Jin Yue said, and walked towards the last row.
The seats in the front were all full, so she could only go to the last row.
Seeing this, Xu Nuo secretly sighed in his heart: This little idiot, sitting so far back, can he see the male officer opposite him clearly?
Such a good position was given to someone else...
The bright and beautiful woman sat next to Lin Ya and took the initiative to greet her: "Hi, hello!"
Lin Ya nodded politely and looked away.
She looked to the front of the auditorium and saw Lu Chen and Xu Nuo talking.
Not knowing what Xu Nuo whispered in his ear, Lu Chen smiled slightly.
After taking a look for a few seconds, she retracted her gaze and stared at the fruit on the table in front of her in a daze.
"Commissar, we can start now at two o'clock."
Hearing the reminder, Liao Qing stood up. He raised his hand and the auditorium, which had been noisy just now, became quiet in an instant.
