Today, Shangguan Wan was dressed in a military uniform with her hair tied in a ponytail, showing her forehead and beautiful small face. She looked handsome and full of vigor.
She came in the same car as the mayor. After getting out of the car, Shangguan Wan saw the car she had seen at the mall the other day.
The mayor said to Shangguan Wan, “That car belongs to the investor.”
Shangguan Wan was slightly stunned and the surprise showed on her face.
She did not expect such coincidence.
Soon, the door of that car was opened.
A shiny black leather shoe entered Shangguan Wan’s line of sight. She did not know why her heart rate was somewhat uncontrolled.
Her gaze moved up slowly from his long legs and her breath tightened.
The man finally got out of the car. Shangguan Wan’s eyelashes fluttered slightly as her gaze landed on the man’s face.
It was a very young, handsome and mixed-blood face.
Shangguan Wan lifted her lips in self deprecation and her heart sank.
She had experienced this rampant feeling of ups and downs several times in the last few months, but each time, she felt an endless loneliness and bitterness after being left disappointed!
Bel came up to the mayor and Shangguan Wan. They greeted one another and then walked together towards the ceremony.
Shangguan Wan took a few steps before she found that something was wrong.
She felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at her.
She turned back immediately.
Looking around, she found that there was no one.
Her gaze landed on that Bentley car.
She could not see if there was anyone else inside the car because of the dark tinted windows. But, she could feel that person with a gaze that could not be ignored was in the car…
“Lieutenant, is there something wrong with my car?” Bel asked with a smile when he saw Shangguan Wan staring at the black Bentley.
Shangguan Wan shook her head. “No.”
That gaze seemed to disappear after a while.
Perhaps her insomnia was serious recently so she was feeling a little suspicious!
…
In the Bentley.
Bailey looked at the man whose gaze was on Shangguan Wan and she frowned. “Fifth Brother, do you know that female officer?”
The man spat out, “No.”
“Fifth Brother, my brother may be busy till very late. The mayor will be taking him out for dinner right? So can you take me to eat something nice?”
The man raised his hand to signal to the chauffeur to drive.
Bailey looked at the man who did not speak much and was always smoking. His face was hidden under the smoke and there was no emotion on his face. It was like he was a sculpture with no desires and emotions.
The chauffeur drove them to a Western restaurant.
Bailey took the man’s arm and they went together into the Western restaurant.
After they were seated, Bailey pointed to the pianist playing on the semicircle stage and said in surprise, “Fifth Brother, look! The pianist is a child! He’s so good, playing so well at such a young age!”
The man looked at the stage and saw a little boy in a white suit with a tie, his hair combed neatly, sitting in front of the piano. His fingers were moving quickly over the keys of the piano with amazing dexterity. The tune he was playing was simple, but smooth and pleasant to the ears.
The most eye-catching was the little boy’s facial features. Especially that pair of long upturned eyes. He was young but already had the charm and style to attract girls.
“Fifth Brother, don’t you think that the child’s eyes look a little like yours?”
The man did not answer and handed the menu to Bailey. “Order your food.”
