Ning Li still followed Lu Huaiyu into the car.
The two of them sat in the back row, but there was a short distance between them. After getting into the car, Lu Huaiyu leaned against the back of the seat and closed his eyes.
Ning Li looked to the side.
His profile was still smooth and perfect, clear and noble.
When he closed his eyes, his appearance seemed inexplicably cold.
The entire car was filled with the cedar scent on his body.
When he had gotten into the car, he had clearly said that he had something to ask her, but now he had not said anything
In the end, however, she was still in the wrong in today’s matter.
Moreover, Yi Bin was in front, so it seemed that there was nothing appropriate that she could say. As she thought so, she only took a light breath, leaned against the back of the chair, and looked out of the window.
The car started.
Yi Bin sensed the strange atmosphere in the car and tactfully remained silent.
The atmosphere in the car became even quieter, Ning Li looked at the streetlights flashing by outside the window and frowned slightly. She was feeling a little worried. Very rarely was Lu Hualyu truly angry with her. However, this time, she had deliberately hid this matter from him.
If it had been anyone else, it would have been impossible to pretend that nothing had happened.
Ning Li silently sighed.
How was she going to coax him this time…?
Lu Huaiyu closed his eyes, but he did not fall asleep In fact, it was precisely because he had blocked his vision that his other senses became more sensitive.
He could hear her shallow breathing very clearly, and he could feel the warmth of her body that was so close to him.
He could even hear her extremely soft sigh.
However… she did not do anything,
Lu Huaiyu waited a while, but the young girl still did not say anything.
Finally, he opened his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, Yi Bin’s voice came from the front.
“Second Master, we’re here.” As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Li pushed open the car door and got out.
She obediently held open the car door for Second Master Lu.
Ning Li felt that this would be quite a show of sincerity.
However, the next moment, when she saw the cold expression on Lu Huaiyu’s face, she became a little uncertain again. Was this man really that unhappy? Was he not even willing to let her open the car door for him?
Lu Huaiyu got out of the car. As his gaze fell on Ning Li, he gave her a meaningful look. Heh. What had she said before they had gotten into the car? In the end, she had not even moved for the full ten minutes.
What had she been able to smell from so far away?
Ning Li was baffled
Ten minutes. She had not done anything in such a short time. Why was he even angrier now?
Just then, George and the others came over,
His gaze swept over the two of them, with a smile that was too bright.
Tsk.
Who would be able to control the always arrogant Lu Huaiyu?
Who could control Ning, who was always arrogant and casual?
The combination of these two people had to be the most interesting!
He said with a smile, “It seems that the two of you are having a good time chatting. However, the banquet is about to begin, so we’d better go in first. If the two of you still want to continue your conversation, please feel free to do
so
The truth was, what George had said was too simple. After Ning Li and Lu Hualyu entered, they were quickly surrounded by people.
All the celebrities and big shots in the fashion industry who wanted to get to know Ning almost completely surrounded her.
As for Lu Huaiyu, there was an increasing number of people who wanted to get to know him around him.
In the past, Lu Huaiyu had never appeared on such occasions. Therefore, although many people had heard of his name, this was actually the first time they were seeing him in person.
The entire banquet hall was divided into two levels, the upper and the lower floors, both of which were spacious and lively. Everyone was dressed extravagantly as they mingled with each other.
Ning Li greeted a few of the most prestigious designers and chief editors in the fashion circle.
There were also many celebrities and models waiting to come over and chat.
It was a long while before she finally had time to rest.
She looked around, intending to find a seat.
Suddenly, her eyes focused. Not far away, a middle-aged man in a dark blue suit was chatting with Lin Fengmian.
The man looked to be in his forties. He was slightly plump with an ordinary appearance He had the kind of look that would be difficult to spot in a crowd.
However, Ning Li was very familiar with this face.
Tao Siwen, the CEO of Xinyue Media.
In her previous life, he had taken a liking to Lin Fengmian and had instructed Lin Fengmian’s manager at that time to pass the message on to Lin Fengmian.
As long as Lin Fengmian was willing to be with him, he was willing to spend a lot of effort to support Lin Fengmian. Of course, Lin Fengmian had refused.
It was probably because his attitude had been too tough that Tao Siwen had then resented him.
Since his debut, he had then repeatedly encountered trouble.
Later on, it had been proven that Tao Siwen deliberately used all those tactics to deal with Lin Fengmian.
With Tao Siwen’s status and wealth, it would be extremely easy for him to destroy an up-and-coming celebrity.
That had been the case with Lin Fengmian back then.
She had not expected to see him here again today.
Lin Fengmian’s back was facing her. She did not know what he was saying, but the smile on Tao Siwen’s face faded a lot, and his eyes seemed to be filled with ruthlessness.
Ning Li walked over.
“Isn’t this just a glass of wine? Can’t a big star like you even drink just this one glass?
Tao Siwen’s status in the circle was not low and he was used to being flattered. However, who knew that he would be rejected twice by Lin Fengmian today.
Lin Fengmian said calmly, “I’m sorry, I’ve been having a cold these past few days. I took some cephalosporin, so I can’t drink this.”
He knew this man’s thoughts very well, so he had very directly refused him.
Tao Siwen was getting angrier and angrier.
“Lin Fengmian, don’t be so shameless!
Lin Fengmian’s expression turned cold. “As the CEO of Xinyue Media, it’s not fun forcing someone to drink, is it?”
A calm female voice sounded.
Lin Fengmian turned around.
“Sister?”
He frowned and pulled at Ning Li to leave.
Tao Siwen was not a good person, and he did not want her to have any contact with such a person.
Tao Siwen’s gaze swept over Ning Li and he smiled.
“I almost forgot that Lin Fengmian has such a beautiful sister.”
He raised his head and smiled.
“It’s not impossible for you to help your younger brother out. How about this? Why don’t you drink this glass and we’ll let this matter go? How about it?
Tao Siwen’s family background was rich and his status was not low. Hence, he was rather arrogant when it came to doing things.
Furthermore, now that he had already drunk some wine, he had no scruples.
As he spoke, he handed the glass of wine to Ning Li. Ning Li’s eyes were cold. However, a hand reached out from the side and took the glass of wine from him.
A deep and cold voice sounded.
T’ll drink this glass of wine for her.”
