Chapter 166 Lover
Lu Qian walked briskly towards the reception hall downstairs.
She glanced down at the folder sticking out of her bag and felt much better.
Fortunately, the negotiations went smoothly today. Lu Qian decided to take a small revenge on Jiang Luan to teach him a lesson. Otherwise, this would not be so easy.
Lu Qian wants to maintain Jiang Luan's mental health, but this does not include indulging his social phobia or indulging his picky eating.
And Lu Qian's situation is not any easier than Jiang Luan's.
Lu Qian didn't know anyone at the party, and because she was cute and pretty, and a little oriental woman standing alone at the table, many men came up to her and chatted with her.
Lu Qian was too lazy to talk nonsense with them and pretended not to understand German and English. Those people realized that it was just asking for trouble, so they just let it go.
She brought a glass of juice and tugged at the silk flowers on the edge of her skirt out of boredom, just hoping that time would pass faster.
"Hello, lovely lady."
Suddenly, a Chinese voice with a foreign accent came into his ears, and Lu Qian subconsciously looked back.
Louis was standing half a body length behind her on the right, smiling gentlemanly.
"My name is Louis, are you interested in getting to know me?"
Lu Qian looked at the handsome blond and blue-eyed young man in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little surprised: "Can you speak Chinese?"
Lu Qian glanced up and down, taking a good look at the man in front of him. With his neatly combed back hair and casual suit, he looked noble yet casual.
During the negotiation just now, Lu Qian noticed that Louis had a very obvious aristocratic temperament. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was the kind of person who grew up with an aristocratic elite education.
His appearance is also very outstanding, especially the blue-green color in his pupils, which is the most transparent Lu Qian has ever seen, and more eye-catching than many celebrities.
However, for Lu Qian, the attraction was very limited. After all, no one could compare to Cheng Yi's extremely attractive face.
Lewis nodded slightly and said, “My instructor is Chinese. I have studied Chinese under him for three years. I speak Chinese pretty well, right?”
"Hello,"
Lu Qian didn't respond directly. Instead, she extended her hand politely to the young man in front of her, who was smiling brightly. "My name is Lu Qian."
Louis' eyes lit up after hearing this, and his usual gentlemanly smile became a little more playful. "Wow, what a coincidence! The Chinese name my Chinese mentor gave me is also Lu."
Lu Qian's slender fingers drew circles impatiently around the rim of the cup and she responded perfunctorily, "That's quite a coincidence indeed."
This pick-up technique is a bit low-level.
Louis was not satisfied with Lu Qian's perfunctory response. He raised his eyebrows and complained slightly, "Normally at a time like this, shouldn't you be excitedly asking me what your Chinese name is?"
Lu Qian could only smile politely and replied, "Haha, then what is your Chinese name?"
She couldn't help but feel that this man seemed a little difficult to deal with, and she regretted talking to him.
Louis crossed his arms proudly, and the bright smile on his face widened a little. "Lu Zhuo, scorching Zhuo, how about it, it suits Miss Lu's name very well, right?"
With his gentlemanly smile and deliberately intimate words, he is indeed very good at pleasing women.
"It's a good name," Lu Qian nodded with a smile, "but Mr. Louis, there's no need to use the word 'match' on me."
Looking at Lu Qian's gentle but distant smile, Louis pursed his lips slightly and frowned helplessly.
"Ms. Lu, you are such a lovely lady, why are you so cold to others? The way you address me really makes me sad."
Lu Qian blinked at Louis in confusion, "Is this coldness? I thought it was called politeness."
Louis didn't answer. He picked up a glass of champagne from the table, took two steps closer to Lu Qian, bent down slightly, and whispered softly while keeping an ambiguous distance: "Miss Lu, you are keeping your distance from me like this. Do you already have someone you love?"
His gesture of handing over the wine was very elegant and skillful, which made Lu Qian more convinced that he was a noble. Her current identity was unclear, and she did not want to provoke such a difficult character.
Lu Qian raised his hand, gently pushed the rim of the champagne glass away, and moved his face back a little, his rejection very obvious.
"Sir, we've only just met for less than five minutes. Isn't it a bit presumptuous of you to ask these questions?"
Lewis opened his mouth slightly, and was about to continue saying something when he heard a commotion at the door of the banquet hall, and the wave of uproar instantly swept through the entire reception room.
Lu Qian looked outside curiously, but saw someone she had never expected to see.
The culprit who caused the riot was standing at the entrance of the venue, searching for something with sharp eyes.
He was wearing a silver-gray suit without a tie, and the collar of the lining was casually loose, revealing the perfect streamline from the jaw angle to the chest muscles, which was undoubtedly very suggestive.
The cold, arrogant and majestic aura around him was so wild and frightening, and his golden-brown eyes were like an eagle hunting in the dark night.
Uninhibited and yet alluring, it seems everyone will fall at his feet.
Lu Qian just looked at the men and women surrounding Cheng Yi, and twisted his mouth in dissatisfaction. Such a dangerous man should not be let out casually.
After a round of patrol, the falcon finally found the prey it had been dreaming of.
The moment Cheng Yi saw Lu Qian, he walked towards her with a casual and noble pace, completely ignoring the people around him who were surrounding him like stars around the moon.
Lu Qian smiled, her little face puffed up in pretending to be angry, and watched Cheng Yi getting closer and closer until the familiar breath of the man hit her face.
"What? Do you look like you don't welcome me?"
Cheng Yi stood in front of her, raised his eyebrows lazily, and spoke in a teasing tone.
Although Lu Qian didn't expect Cheng Yi to come, she naturally took the opportunity.
She pouted coquettishly and raised her hand to tighten Cheng Yi's slightly open collar. "It's not very welcome. You're too dazzling. No one even looks at me when you come."
Cheng Yi smiled charmingly, put his arm around Lu Qian's slender waist, held her in his arms, and said in a low voice, "Isn't it enough for me to watch over you?"
When Lu Qian bumped into that solid and hot embrace, he could no longer hold back the smile in his heart, and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Then you'd better keep an eye on me, or I'll come after you."
"Little thing," Cheng Yi tightened his grip on Lu Qian's waist, leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, and said jokingly, "You're becoming more and more greedy."
Lu Qian chuckled: "So this is greed. Then I can be even greedier."
The two of them just stared at each other affectionately under the gaze of the crowd, completely ignoring the surrounding environment and Louis beside them.
"cough……"
Louis let out an awkward cough, which faintly reached Cheng Yi's ears.
But Cheng Yi didn't even look at him. He continued to stare at Lu Qian, tilting his head and saying with disdain, "Do you know this person?"
Lu Qian thought about it for a while and nodded hesitantly, "Probably."
“…”
Even though Louis had an aristocratic education, he couldn't control his emotions at this moment. What does "probably" mean?
He secretly took a deep breath, controlled his face from wanting to slap, extended his hand towards Cheng Yi, and continued to try to maintain a gentlemanly smile, "Hello, my name is Louis, and I'm a colleague of Miss Lu."
After hearing Louis's self-introduction, Lu Qian looked at Cheng Yi anxiously. She was afraid that Cheng Yi would reveal his identity in such an occasion. Recently, Tavia's expansion in Germany was booming, and there were many hidden enemies and people who were trying their best to please Cheng Yi.
If he reveals his identity now, it may cause a lot of unnecessary unrest.
Cheng Yi turned sideways, pulled Lu Qian to his side, lowered his head and softly kissed her small mouth, his thin lips slightly curled, and the voice of the Gu Master slipped out softly.
"Hello, I'm Miss Lu's kept lover."
