Chapter 938: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon-Discovered (23)
On the other side of the PUB…
“Mr. Ken, it’s rare for me to invite you to a place like this. This PUB is the most popular nightclub in Boston. Usually, many students in the vicinity will come here. Of course, there are also many businessmen who occasionally stay here. The environment here is not bad.”
Xu Chengfeng glanced at the young men and women who were swaying to the music on the dance floor in front of him and said calmly,””Anything is fine. I really didn’t expect Mr. Lauren to choose such a place before coming.”
Lao En was a partner of the new technology project of the KP Group. Seeing that Xu Chengfeng did not refuse, he smiled and pointed in the direction ahead.”Mr. Ken, do you prefer a quieter private room or a card bag for the outside world? I’ve already booked all the seats in front of you. You can choose!”
“As you wish.” Xu Chengfeng’s gaze did not pay attention to any part of the PUB as he walked straight over.
After sitting down, Lauren called the Waiter to order some drinks and snacks. The secretaries and a.s.sistants brought by the two of them also came in and sat down. A series of etiquette and information that should be used during the discussion of the project were gradually distributed on the coffee table.
The lights in the PUB were all around Xu Chengfeng, and from time to time, they fell on him. His white shirt reflected the neon colors, making Xu Chengfeng’s face look a little dull. Even in such an occasion where young people liked to play, it did not diminish his bearing.
*****
Zuo Yue and the black-haired boy had already sat in another two-person card bag not too far away from Julie and the others. Because it was close to the dance floor, it was not very quiet, but at least it was away from the laughter of the boys.
“They call you Auspicious Prosperity, right?” Zuo Yue ate some fruits while glancing at the handsome man sitting opposite her from time to time.
After the two of them sat down, he didn’t talk much. He just pushed all the snacks that the waiter had sent over to her.
“Sister Zuo Yue, you really don’t remember me?”Suddenly, the black-haired handsome man looked at her seriously.
Zuo Yue was stunned for a moment. She looked at the handsome man in front of her with a faint smile and a hint of warmth. After thinking for a long time, she was still a little confused. She could only slowly shake her head.”I don’t seem to understand what you mean…”
“Don’t you remember that when you were young and went to Korea with your parents to discuss a big business project, you used to stay at our house for a few days? Back then, you always followed behind me and called me Big Brother Rui Sheng. You even said that you would marry me when you grew up. How many years has it been? Ten years? You actually forgot about it so thoroughly?”
Zuo Yue’s eyes widened instantly. Memories of her childhood flooded her mind.
When she was eight years old, Zuo Enterprise seemed to have a very important project cooperation with a Korean company. When her parents went to Korea, they brought her along. However, because they had to attend some important meetings and could not bring their child along, they temporarily left her at their Korean friend’s house. There was indeed a very beautiful little brother in that family who took good care of her. When she was young, she did pester him every day and even said that she would marry him when she grew up.
“So it’s you!” Zuo Yue pointed at him in disbelief.””I was wondering why you would attend such a social gathering today. They said that you never care when girls chase you. They also said that you don’t like noisy environments. I didn’t expect it to be you! Your name is the…It was… Yin…
Ruisheng… That’s right! You’re Yin Ruisheng, right? I remember Mom and Dad saying that your family name is Yin!”
Yin Ruisheng revealed a gratified smile.”It seems that my memory is still good. I haven’t completely forgotten everything.”
Zuo Yue immediately stuck out her tongue. At first, she really just wanted to sit down and look at the handsome man and joke around. However, when she faced this acquaintance whom she had known for a few days when she was young, the atmosphere was no longer as simple as laughing and joking. She then became a little reserved. After taking a sip of the sweet wine, she looked at the wine gla.s.s in front of her again.
No wonder Yin Ruisheng took the initiative to pour her a gla.s.s of wine. There were many drinks on the crystal coffee table over there. He poured her a gla.s.s of liqueur with the lowest alcohol content, which was almost fruit-flavored. It was because he poured her a gla.s.s of wine that the other boys could not randomly make a fuss and pour her those with higher alcohol content.
So Big Brother Ruisheng had recognized her long ago and came to join in the fun, while also secretly protecting her?
She didn’t expect Brother Ruisheng to still be the same as when she was young. When she lived in their house for a few days, he took good care of her.
“Are you really just here to join in the fun?”Zuo Yue looked up and asked softly.
Yin Ruisheng smiled.” When Julie sent your photo to them, I was there. When I saw your photo, I felt that it was very familiar. When I heard your name, I was sure that you were the little girl who said that she wanted to marry with me, so I came to take a look.”
He actually mentioned the words she said when she was young again. Zuo Yue immediately smiled awkwardly.”That… A child’s words are always fearless, haha. Little girls at an ignorant age will always inexplicably say who they want to marry…”
“Who else did you tell?” Yin Ruisheng raised his eyebrows.”
“Uh…” Zuo Yue looked at him and suddenly took another sip of wine.
Yin Ruisheng reached out and pressed her hand down.””Don’t drink anymore. Even if the alcohol content is very low, the aftertaste is strong. If you drink too much, you’ll still get drunk.”
“It’s okay. I’m a little thirsty.” Zuo Yue gently avoided his hand and continued to take two more sips.
“Sister Zuo Yue, are you nervous?” Yin Ruisheng chuckled.”
“Oh… No, no.” Zuo Yue put down her wine gla.s.s and smiled sweetly.””I just didn’t expect to meet you here, so I felt a little awkward. I was really just joking with Juliana and the others just now. How could I really find a boyfriend in such an atmosphere? I was just joking, but Julie took it seriously, so…”
Zuo Yue could not continue speaking because of her own nonsense. She could only raise her hand and scratch her forehead with an embarra.s.sed expression. However, her smile was full of childishness.
“It’s okay. I took it seriously.”Yin Ruisheng’s voice was very soft.” I’ve already taken your words seriously ten years ago, so I came here today to see if you would choose me.””
“..”Zuo Yue’s eyes were filled with astonishment.
..
Not far away, in the direction of the more secluded card bag, after a few rounds of toasting, the important matters in the project cooperation had almost been discussed. The secretary was negotiating the contents of the contract with the staff beside Lauren.
Xu Chengfeng and Lao En smiled and said a few more words about the cooperation. Then, they picked up the crystal square gla.s.s at the side and took a sip of the Brandy that tasted good. At the same time, their eyes inadvertently looked in the direction of the dance floor.
Suddenly, Xu Chengfeng’s gaze stopped in the direction of the two-person card bag beside the dance floor.
