As the host, Lu Wanqing wore a cheongsam dress with classical elements. The dress was light blue and fitted, exuding elegance and class. Every gesture she made reflected the demeanor of a socialite.
Actually, she didn't want to be too formal, but in this kind of situation, if she didn't act a little formal, she wouldn't be able to command the respect of so many successful businessmen and political bigwigs.
A strong enough aura is needed to convince people.
When Pete saw the elegant and charming Lu Wanqing, his heart was immediately stirred.
This is what a woman from China should be like—she's incredibly charming and breathtakingly beautiful.
He would die happy if he could have dinner with her!
He had long forgotten any talk of never betraying his wife.
However, when he held up his wine glass and tried to strike up a conversation with Lu Wanqing, Chun Tao blocked his way:
"Sir, I'm sorry, as a special guest, please take a seat over there. The banquet will begin shortly."
She emphasized the words "special guest," and Pitt blushed as if he'd been caught red-handed.
The banquet was arranged so that members would sit together, and he, who had been brought in by someone, would naturally be seated at the edge of the banquet.
But he didn't give up. During the banquet, he would steal glances at Lu Wanqing from time to time. Seeing her toasting with bigwigs from all walks of life with a faint smile on her face, he felt a strong itch in his heart.
Seeing many people standing with her, chatting and laughing, I felt a little envious.
He knew it was the feeling of being in love.
Unexpectedly, even though he was over fifty and had been married for more than twenty years, he rekindled his passion in a mysterious Eastern country.
After the banquet, it's time for some relaxation. The Red Top Club on the hotel's top floor offers a variety of entertainment facilities.
KTV rooms, chess and card rooms, billiard rooms... you can find any entertainment you can think of here.
Pete finally found an opportunity to invite Lu Wanqing for coffee.
After listening to Huo Xiao's introduction, Lu Wanqing smiled slightly and led him into the coffee room.
"Mr. Pete, how long have you been in China?"
She was talking about some trivial matters.
Pete was momentarily confused and infatuated, letting her lead him by the nose, and they communicated incoherently.
"Mr. Lu, I own an equipment manufacturing plant, which is currently the largest supplier in China. Can I join the Red Top Club? I can pay double the membership fee."
Once his mind was finally functioning, he requested to join the membership.
Although his Newt Company is of average size in the United States, it is a family-owned business with a history of over a hundred years and is very powerful. His personal assets are also over a hundred million. A million or two is just a drop in the ocean for him. It all depends on whether he is willing to spend it!
Lu Wanqing took a sip of red wine and smiled charmingly:
"Mr. Pete, a third of the celebrities here tonight are not members. Everyone wants to join. How am I supposed to choose?"
Clearly, the membership fee is just the final step; her consent is required first.
When the club first started developing, it advertised everywhere to recruit people, but now everyone is begging her for a chance.
After all, such a platform is a good place for exchanging resources and information.
Anyone who wants to achieve great things cannot escape these interpersonal relationships and social dynamics.
Pete had originally intended to use Lu Wanqing's affair to blackmail her, but now, blinded by love, he silently put away the photos he had taken and instead said mysteriously to her:
"I heard some bad rumors about you from Frank. You must be careful of Lu Jiajia."
I know there's some grudge between you two, and these things could very well be detrimental to you…
Lu Wanqing listened calmly, swirling her wine glass in her hand, but in her heart she was thinking that she never expected Frank would actually bring this up.
He thought he could rest easy once he returned to America, but in reality, he had already contracted a virus when he was tricked into taking explicit photos.
Lu Wanqing thought that if he could behave himself, she would send him a bottle of spiritual spring water a year later to help him detoxify. It seems that she doesn't need to do that now. She will just wait for the virus to take effect a year later!
Looking at the lecherous foreigner in front of her, she felt a wave of nausea wash over her again.
These foreigners are all so old, yet they still think they're incredibly charming!
After a few drinks, Pete's gaze towards her became even more fiery and passionate.
Seeing that the time was right, Lu Wanqing called Chuntao over and continued to deal with him.
Chun Tao's pure and beautiful appearance made Pete, who was under the influence of alcohol, unable to take his eyes off her.
“Come on, little girl, drink this glass of wine with me, and I’ll give you a hundred dollars!” Pete took out some money from his pocket and stuffed it into her pocket.
Chuntao dodged, pleading sweetly:
"Sir, please don't do this. You've had too much to drink. Go inside and rest for a while!"
The voice was charming and melodious, making Pete feel a ticklish sensation in his heart and his blood rush to his head.
"Little girl, why don't you come with me to rest for a bit?" Pete said, reaching out to grab Chun Tao's hand.
Unexpectedly, the moment he touched Chun Tao, her clothes ripped open at the collar, and she immediately clutched her chest and began to cry dramatically:
"Sir, how can you be so indecent? I don't want to live anymore!"
Next up is Huo Xiao.
Huo Xiao originally wanted to go up and grab him by the collar to question him, using this deliberately created lewd moment to make Pete behave himself in the future.
Unexpectedly, Han Tao appeared out of nowhere and punched Pete in the face, causing blood to flow freely from the corner of his mouth.
Pete, not to be outdone after being hit, retaliated, and the two quickly began to wrestle.
Chuntao and Huo Xiao quickly intervened to stop the fight and finally managed to calm them down.
"Come with me to the police station. You're acting like a hooligan in public. Don't think I'll let it slide just because you're a foreigner!" Han Tao's attitude was firm.
When Chuntao saw him, she felt happy, but also a little uneasy.
This was planned in advance; he won't take it seriously, will he?
She had no choice but to take his hand, lead him aside, and whisper the reason in his ear.
Han Tao's face relaxed considerably. However, things had already come to this point. If he didn't insist that Pete had acted like a hooligan, Pete would sue him for assaulting an international friend. So he decided to stick to his story and not give Pete a chance to recover.
Chuntao thought he made sense, so she started acting out the role of an injured young wife in front of him.
Seeing this, Pete's dazed mind cleared up somewhat, and he quickly apologized:
"I'm sorry, I had too much to drink earlier, I didn't know I would do something like this to you!"
He was somewhat relieved that he was stopped before he could make any further moves, and even more relieved that he did not lay a hand on Lu Wanqing or defile his goddess!
Next, things took a turn for the worse for Pete, and he was temporarily detained on suspicion of indecent assault.
As for Han Tao hitting someone, it was for his girlfriend, there was a reason for it, and Pete's injury wasn't that serious, so there's no need to pursue it.
Chun Tao and Han Tao walked out of the police station, looked at each other, and smiled silently.
