25. Banquet
83.
Lin Can opened the lid, took a look, and immediately stuffed the box back into the bag as if he had touched something hot.
The fabric as thin as a cicada's wing and the gorgeous and delicate lace are obviously not something serious!
The red light passed and the car started again. Fu Xingzhi looked like he was concentrating on driving, but his stiff profile had actually revealed everything.
No wonder he looked so unnatural today.
Lin Can blushed as he thought, since he and Fu Xingzhi already had this kind of relationship, exchanging such gifts was actually harmless, on the contrary... it made him feel aroused.
The love this man had for him was enough to set a prairie on fire, but he only expressed it in tiny bits. He was always gentle and restrained towards himself, and only on rare occasions would he reveal a little madness.
Actually, it’s okay, he can be a little more extreme.
When they reached the next red light, Lin Can finally said, "Thank you for the gift."
Fu Xingzhi curled his hands on the steering wheel unnaturally and asked in an ambiguous tone, "Are you not disgusted?"
"Ah..." Lin Can hesitated for a moment. A direct admission would seem particularly uninhibited, so he could only mumble, "It's well made."
Who knew that this sentence suddenly made Fu Xingzhi serious? He turned around to look at Lin Can and asked seriously: "Only good workmanship?"
"What?"
“Isn’t the design good?”
Lin Can looked at Fu Xingzhi's serious expression and felt inexplicably guilty. Just looking at that kind of thing would make him blush and his heart beat uncontrollably. How could he possibly study its design seriously?
Fu Xingzhi sighed, still feeling that his gift was too abrupt and scared the child.
But he couldn't help it, he couldn't help but have such desire for Lin Can.
If a complete set of women's white lace underwear was worn on Lin Can's thin but not frail, fair and resilient body, just by closing your eyes and thinking about it, the picture would be so erotic that people could not control themselves.
Cutting off these unrealistic thoughts, Fu Xingzhi still put respect for Lin Can first. He said, "If you don't mind, just put it in your closet. I'm not forcing you to wear it, nor do I mean to offend you."
"How could that be?" Lin Can muttered softly, "In fact, even if I don't force it..."
"What?"
Lin Can looked out the window uncomfortably and said, "Nothing."
84.
The dinner starts at nine o'clock in the evening. Before that, Lin Can needs to change clothes and do her hair, and have a proper dinner.
Gatherings of the upper class are destined to have nothing to do with food. They just use "banquet" as an excuse to gather in magnificent places, either to trade or to collude.
In the morning, Fu Xingzhi had two identical suits delivered. Lin Can's suit was a ceremonial three-piece suit, consisting of a vest, a suit, and trousers, while Fu Xingzhi's suit was a business two-piece suit, without the vest. Although they were made of the same fabric and cut, the details of the design still showed that Lin Can was the protagonist of the banquet.
Lin Can's life is actually far from that of a second-generation businessman, and he has not been involved in those thrilling wars among wealthy families. Normally, he is just an ordinary male college student from a slightly wealthy family. In order to keep his circle clean, Fu Xingzhi rarely introduces people in the business world to him. This is the first time that he has been asked to attend such an event.
But this does not hinder the noble aura that comes from Lin Can when he puts on formal clothes.
As a result of good family education since childhood, he always has a quiet and calm aura. Even simple actions, such as walking and talking, can show the huge difference between him and other active boys of his age.
Now, after meticulously curating her outfit and styling, the difference is unmistakable, like a rough jade that, after being polished, reveals a gentle sheen.
When Fu Xingzhi saw Lin Can slowly walking down the stairs, he almost felt the same excitement as a princess in a fairy tale meeting her prince for the first time.
Then he found it funny again, because he compared himself to a princess.
Fu Xingzhi had also dressed up long ago, and was dressed just like usual, wearing the same dark grey suit as Lin Can, with the last button of his single-breasted suit undone. The hem of his trousers fit perfectly against the surface of his black Oxford shoes, and the end of the lapel chain on his suit collar fell naturally into his pocket.
Lin Can walked over and naturally extended his hand to Fu Xingzhi. The two smiled at each other and walked to the dining table hand in hand.
Jiang Wenxi, sitting at the dining table, angrily ate a large piece of steak!
85.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Fu Xingzhi and Lin Can appeared in the banquet hall on time.
Looking at the woman next to him in a tight velvet dress and delicate makeup, Fu Xingzhi still asked, "Who are you?"
Jiang Wenxi glanced at him with a noble and cold look, as if she didn't want to talk to him any more, and raised her wine glass to greet a man standing alone in front of a long table.
Lin Can laughed awkwardly and asked, "Is Sister Xi always like this?"
"Ignore her."
Fu Xingzhi led him through the crowd. People kept greeting him with smiles, saying hello to Fu Xingzhi, and asking about the identity of the boy next to him who looked extraordinary.
In response, Fu Xingzhi introduced them uniformly: "This is the head of the Lin family, Mr. Lin Can."
"Ah, it's the young master of the Lin family. He's grown up so much?"
"What a handsome man he is."
Lin Can nodded slightly, but he couldn't help feeling guilty. What kind of family head... He didn't even know what industries his family's company operated.
When talking about the Lin family, everyone looked at each other in confusion, and couldn't help but think of the grievances and entanglements between Fu Xingzhi and Lin Yecheng a few years ago. Even the way they looked at Lin Can became naked and bold.
Fu Xingzhi had been stirring up trouble in the business world over the years, and almost no one dared to mention those unpleasant past events to his face. However, people's desire for gossip was unstoppable, and some even whispered, "What was Fu Xingzhi's purpose in bringing his ex-lover's son to such an occasion?"
The person at the center of the incident didn't pay much attention to it and moved on to deal with the next greeting.
At ten o'clock, the guests were talking and their enthusiasm reached its peak, and the host of the banquet finally showed up.
Mr. Wei is considered a leader in the industry and is also Fu Xingzhi's elder. Lin Yecheng died after leaving behind a mess. In addition to Fu Xingzhi's decisive style, Mr. Wei's help was also indispensable in revitalizing the company.
Fu Xingzhi talked calmly with the old man, while Lin Can listened quietly on the side. After the business was finished, Mr. Wei finally turned his attention to Lin Can.
"Is this the child from the Lin family?"
Fu Xingzhi said, "Yes."
Old Wei said kindly, "You've grown this big already?"
Lin Can was a little depressed. Why was it that the first thing everyone said when they saw him was "You've grown so big?", even though they had never seen him before...
He bowed politely though.
Lin Can was already good-looking, and his well-behaved attitude made him even more endearing. Old Wei smiled so hard that his eyes disappeared. He said to Fu Xingzhi, "No wonder you brought his son with you to take care of him personally after Lin Yecheng passed away. I like seeing such a well-behaved child."
After that, he teased Lin Can again: "He brought you to such an occasion, so he must treat you as his own child."
"...cough." Lin Can was slightly embarrassed.
And what kind of occasion is this?
Fu Xingzhi blocked Lin Can behind him. Just now, Fu Xingzhi just dealt with the unfamiliar people, but he didn't want to hide anything from this acquaintance. This was also the real purpose of bringing Lin Can here today.
"I didn't bring him here as an elder."
Mr. Wei stopped smiling and looked at the male guests and their female companions in the banquet hall, and suddenly had a bad premonition.
This should be an occasion to bring a partner.
Fu Xingzhi obviously understood the meaning on his face and told him bluntly: "Lin Can and I are dating now."
Elder Wei's pupils trembled, and he was speechless with shock. These two people were of different generations, but the same gender, and both were quite shocking. For a moment, Elder Wei didn't know whether to curse or not.
He looked at Lin Can, and Lin Can also looked at him, and the atmosphere suddenly became quite awkward.
Just now he said "treat them as his own children".
Mr. Wei coughed. He had to admit that the old veterans in the circle were knowledgeable and experienced. He reluctantly accepted such a thing, but he couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a tit-for-tat. Lin Yecheng owed you a debt and lost his son. It's really..."
Fu Xingzhi corrected him.
He said calmly, "It has nothing to do with that person, and it has nothing to do with whether or not to report it. It's just because he is Lin Can."
Mr. Wei looked at the two people looking at each other in tacit understanding, smiled and sighed: "That's right."
86.
After dealing with a few more elders, Fu Xingzhi finally accomplished his goal of announcing it to the world.
In the second half of the trip, they took a break and went to the terrace on the fourth floor.
As the heavy curtains were drawn, the noisy sounds in the hall were completely blocked out, leaving only a reassuring tranquility.
Fu Xingzhi also breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help laughing again.
Seeing him smile, Lin Can's eyes also turned into a smile, and asked him: "Are you happy about the same thing as me?"
Without even asking, Fu Xingzhi answered him, "Yes."
For the moonlight tonight, and also for the satisfaction of announcing to everyone that I have obtained a treasure.
From this moment on, their relationship was blessed by their elders.
Fu Xingzhi's eyes reflected the gentle moonlight, and he whispered, "I didn't even dare to dream of such a wonderful thing, but it has come true."
How could it be so easy to get the attention of the boy I had been dreaming of for a long time?
The surge of love swept over him, and Fu Xingzhi finally couldn't help but attack his lips.
He put his arms around Lin Can's waist and held him tightly in his arms, licking every inch of his mouth carefully with the tip of his tongue, until Lin Can let out an unbearable hum, then he withdrew, pulling out a strand of extremely obscene silver thread.
Lin Can opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue to breathe, his face blurred by the kisses.
Fu Xingzhi was overwhelmed with lust and hurriedly took off his suit and vest. His hot and wet kisses gradually moved to his neck. When his fingers touched the third button of his shirt, Lin Can suddenly woke up from his confusion and grabbed his hand to stop him urgently.
"What's wrong?" Fu Xingzhi's voice was a little hoarse.
Lin Can answered him uncomfortably: "No, don't take it off. It's a bit cold."
Fu Xingzhi had obviously just thought of this problem. Although it was already midsummer, if he took off his clothes and did something real outside, his sweat would be blown by the night wind and he would definitely catch a cold.
He asked softly, "How about leaving your shirt on and just showing your bottom?"
Lin Can shook his head even more vigorously, "No! I'll catch a cold if I take it off."
The hand that had just covered the collar of his shirt moved down and tightly grasped his pants.
He was so focused on his lower body that he didn't pay any attention to his upper body. Lin Can had already unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt, and the faint white color in his collar immediately attracted Fu Xingzhi's attention.
His eyes widened as he asked Lin Can, "What are you wearing inside?"
Lin Can was still struggling: "No! No!"
Fu Xingzhi chuckled, "When did you become a stutterer?"
Since Lin Can didn't say anything, he came to check it himself and unbuttoned the fourth button under Lin Can's embarrassed and angry gaze.
The white lace is binding this seductive body.
So when he was taking Lin Can to introduce people just now, the well-behaved, sensible, generous and decent boy was wearing a complete set of sexy underwear!
Fu Xingzhi's mind went blank.
