Mu Sihan curled the right side of his lips lazily when he saw that Nan Zhi was staring at him. His deep black eyes were exceptionally long and narrow. His long eyelashes were stuck together slightly and gave off an indescribable s.e.xiness and charm.
The ballroom was decorated in a pastel pink theme. The crystal-like lights were mystical and made everything around them feel unreal.
As a result, Nan Zhi’s heart could not help but to beat faster when her eyes matched with the dark and deep black eyes of Mu Sihan.
It must be an illusion of hers. If not, why would she think that the hot-tempered man was actually as handsome as a G.o.d and was full of charm right now?!
Of course, he broke the dream-like atmosphere from the moment he opened his mouth, “What are you looking at? Have you fallen in love with me?”
Nan Zhi scoffed in her heart. She looked away and stopped acknowledging him.
Mu Sihan clapped once and a row of service staff wearing uniforms entered almost immediately with carts of delicacies. At the same time, the lights on the stage dimmed.
Mu Sihan coughed once before he said to Nan Zhi and Xiaojie, “Stop standing there, you two. Sit down.”
After Nan Zhi and Xiaojie were seated, a light and slow music started to play in the ballroom.
Nan Zhi blinked as she stared at the stage in confusion. She asked Xiaojie softly, “Is someone performing?”
Xiaojie nodded his head excitedly. “Pretty Zhizhi, didn’t you want to watch Stephen’s musical? I mentioned it to Uncle Cool randomly and he actually came out with a way to invite uncle Stephen’s team from Broadway to perform especially for you tonight!”
Nan Zhi widened her eyes in shock and disbelief.
It was incredibly hard to get a ticket for Stephen’s musical in Broadway. She merely mentioned it to Xiaojie once when they were still living abroad. She did not think that Xiaojie would remember. Neither did she think that Mu Sihan would invite Stephen’s entire team over!
…
In the grand lobby of Huangting Hotel.
Nan Yao stared at the manager in front of them in disbelief. “We booked the number one ballroom a month earlier, but someone intercepted our booking tonight?”
It was impossible! It was completely impossible!
The best ballroom of Huangting Hotel was only used to receive VIPs, and needed to be reserved a month in advance.
How could it be booked by another person in the last minute?
Who was so influential?
“Manager, we booked it first. You can’t give it to others because you said so. If this is known by others, it will also affect your hotel’s reputation.”
The manager kept apologizing. “I’m sorry, Miss Nan. The guest is a friend of our boss. We can only follow our boss’ orders. Even though the number one ballroom one isn’t available, we have prepared the number two ballroom for your event. Also to compensate the inconvenience, you will enjoy a five percent discount for tonight.”
Nan Yao came over earlier after work to wait for her parents, relatives, Bo Shaoxiu and her colleagues to arrive.
Although she was a little unhappy and unwilling that the number one ballroom had been booked by others, she did not have any choice and could only settle on the number two ballroom.
…
Nan Weiye, Ding Shuman, Bo Shaoxiu, their relatives and her colleagues slowly arrived not long after Nan Yao entered the ballroom.
Nan Weiye pulled Nan Yao to the side to ask when he saw that it was not the number one ballroom, “What happened?”
“Father, the number one ballroom got booked by someone else in the last minute.”
Nan Weiye furrowed his eyebrows. Who dared to intercept the ballroom he booked with his current status in Ning City?
“Father, the manager said that it’s a friend of Huangting’s boss.”
Nan Weiye scoffed unhappily, “And a friend can disrespect the rules of first-come-first-serve?”
Nan Yao knew that Nan Weiye was anxious in keeping up his appearance and she hurriedly gave her father an out. “Father, that person probably didn’t know that the number one ballroom was originally booked by you. Who in Ning City wouldn’t call you President Nan respectfully when they saw you, given father’s current status?”
Nan Weiye’s dark expression lightened a little. He nodded. “Never mind. I don’t want to make things too ugly since today’s your mother’s birthday. I’ll go and meet that person after the banquet is over.”
At this time, a few exclamations sounded from the entrance of the ballroom. “Oh my G.o.d, it’s actually Stephen! President Nan is really impressive! He actually managed to invite Stephen over to celebrate Mrs Nan’s birthday!”
