Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Tao Siwen looked at the newcomer, the impudent expression on his face disappeared.
His eyes swept over Lu Huaiyu and Ning Li, as he gave them a meaningful smile. “It seems that Second Master Lu is also very interested in Ning?”
His expression was very subtle.
The name Ning was extremely well-known in the fashion industry, but because Tao Siwen held capital in his hands, he did not think much of it.
She and Lin Fengmian came from an extremely ordinary background. Although they were famous now, ultimately, they still worked for others.
Of course, Tao Siwen had heard what George had said before, but he did not really take it too seriously.
She was just a designer. How much would such a big group like G&S really do for her?
He himself held a high position, so he did not think that much of them at all.
Besides, Lin Fengmian had rejected his drink which had embarrassed him, so he spoke even more rudely now.
Each word and action revealed the contempt and disdain deep in his heart.
Also.
Lu Huaiyu’s eyes narrowed dangerously, and the aura around him grew even colder.
Only then did Tao Siwen realize that something was wTong
However, his first reaction was that Lu Huaiyu had some interest in Ning.
Anyone who knew that the thing they liked was coveted by others would probably not be happy.
Not to mention that this person was the extremely powerful Lu Huaiyu.
Tao Siwen had been in the business world for many years. He knew how to bend when necessary. Of course, he knew who to offend and who not to offend.
Lu Huaiyu was someone that he could not afford to offend.
Therefore, he simply smiled and spoke in an ambiguous tone. “Since Second Master Lu likes it, then I won’t take it away from you. Second
Master, please help yourself to this glass of wine.
Lu Huaiyu’s tone was light as he spoke. “Ning is the designer that I admire the most. A glass of wine is nothing.”
Tao Siwen thought to himself, this person really knows how to play.
With Lu Huaiyu’s background, what kind of woman would he not be able to get, as long as he showed interest?
Yet, he had to come up with the excuse ot helping her by intercepting the wine.
However, perhaps it was more fun for them and they liked to do it this way.
He looked at Ning Li and teased her with a smile. “Yes, yes, I watched today’s big show too. Ning is indeed very talented. Haha!
Ning, you’re very blessed to be able to be appreciated by Second Master Lul”
Ning Li’s expression turned even colder.
She turned her head to look at Lu Huaiyu. “No-
Before she could finish her sentence, Lu Huaiyu suddenly laughed and downed the glass of wine in one gulp.
Tao Siwen laughed. “Second Master is indeed magnanimous!”
Ning Li frowned slightly.
Lu Huaiyu looked over and saw the young girl frowming. The corners of his lips curved slightly. He bent his head a little closer and said with a low laugh, “I said I would help you drink it. Naturally, I can’t go back on my words.”
The strong smell of alcohol assaulted her nostrils.
Tao Siwen had deliberately put himself in a difficult position by having poured a glass of wine with very high-alcohol content.
At the venue, many people were looking in their direction.
When they realized that Lu Huaiyu had personally stepped up to help Ning intercept the liquor, many people’s expressions had changed slightly.
This master had always been very noble. How many people had ever dared to persuade him to drink?
But now, he had done so much for Ning…
Was this really just pure admiration for the designer, or..
Lu Huaiyu had already straightened up as he maintained a normal distance from Ning Li.
It was as if that moment of intimacy that had just happened had merely been an illusion.
Tao Siwen smiled and said, “Since Second Master Lu and Ning are having such a good chat, I won’t bother you anymore.”
Everyone looked over and guessed Lu Huaiyu’s intentions.
At that moment, someone else came.
George.
Holding a glass of red wine in his hand, he walked over with a smile. “Second Master Lu, the last time we met, we didn’t manage to have a good drink together. Today, you should at least give me some face, right?”
He was still thinking about the time when Lu Huaiyu had held the celebratory banquet for Ning in Yunzhou, but they had deliberately not invited him.
Today wasa rare opportunity. Of course, he had to make up for it.
Lu Huaiyu picked up a glass of red wine from the tray held by the waiter next to him and raised his eyebrows slightly. “of course.
George gave a quick glance at Ning Li who was beside him and said with a smile, “Actually, there were a few friends just now who wanted me to help introduce Second Master to them. However, I saw that Second Master seemed to be a little busy, so I declined- “Not busy.
Lu Huaiyu said lightly, the corners of his mouth holding a smile. “But it won’t take long to drink a glass of wine.”
George blinked and cast a sympathetic glance at Ning Li.
Tsk.
He had finally experienced it today.
Lu Huaiyu really was a difficult man to deal with.
He was really good at holding on to grudges.
George’s smile grew even wider. “Then, Second Master, shall we go over after you’ve drunk this glass?
Lu Huaiyu responded and was ready to drink the glass of red wine.
Suddenly, a soft and warm hand reached over from the side.
Ning Li snatched the glass of red wine. “Second Master only just drank the white wine. I’m afraid you’ll get drunk easily if you drink it together with this. Allow me to drink this glass to thank
Second Master for helping me out just now.”
Lu Huaiyu turned his head to look at her quietly. “It was just a small favor. Ning, you don’t have to be so polite.”
Ning Li raised her head slightly, without decreasing her aura in the slightest. “It’s nothing. I don’t like to owe others.”
Lu Huaiyu narrowed his eyes slightly.
Ning Li immediately finished the glass of red wine.
George quietly took half a step back.
Seriously, when a young couple quarreled, why did the effects spill over to him?
After Ning Li had finished drinking, she placed the glass back on the tray, then looked at Lu Huaiyu and said, “Isn’t Second Master going to meet someone with George? I have nothing to do here, so I won’t delay Second Master.”
After a long while, Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Sure.”
He looked at George. “Mr. George, please lead the way.”
George looked at them and secretly sighed.
These two people… were really not to be trifled with!
However, since things had come to this, there was no other way. “Second Master, please–”
As he said this, he took Lu Huaiyu away.
The two of them took the stairs to go upstairs. He then lowered his head to look at the hall on the first floor, wanting to see Ning Li’s expression at this moment.
Ning Li had already turned around and left, as if she had no hesitation at all.
George,”.” “Mr. George seems to be very reluctant to leave?”
A cold voice came from his side.
George turned his head and saw Lu Huaiyu had also stopped following him.
Although this had been addressed to him, his gaze had fallen on Ning Li’s back, who was not far away.
Because Ning Li was not around, the tone of this man’s voice had returned to his usual cold and arrogant tone. Not a hint of his rarely-seen gentleness was left.
George weighed this question in his heart.
Since the situation had already become like this, there was no point in savingg
L.
S0– “Yes.
He smiled, his eyes full of sincere praise and emotion. “Ning is so beautiful and talented. Look at how lively tonight is. I can’t even begin to tell how many people like her!
Lu Huaiyu looked at him indifferently. After a moment, he spoke calmly. “George. “Do you think that G&S’s market expansion in China is going too smoothly? “Sister, how are you
Lin Fengmian looked at Ning Li worriedly.
He knew that Ning Li’s alcohol tolerance was very average, yet she had downed the glass of red wine just now. This…
Ning Li shook her head. “You can’t get drunk on red wine that easily.”
Seeing that her expression was still clear and bright, Lin Fengmian was slightly relieved.
Someone nearby called out Lin Fengmian’s name. Ning Li glanced at him. He seemed to be a senior in the music industry.
She said, “You go ahead. I’ll ask the waiter for a cup of hangover soup.”
