C74 Old Acquaintance

Yan Fengxu put her arm around her shoulders and walked out of the dance floor.

With every step Lin Wanbai took, she was locked in sight by Huo Changyuan. The light from the crystal lamp struck the resolute outline of his face. The expression on his face made people feel that it was a bit strange …

I can't figure it out.

Her heart inexplicably sank.

Suddenly, he recalled that his previous interactions with the opposite sex had made him unhappy.

She clenched her sweaty fingers, and at the same time Yan Feng let go of her, she stretched out her hand, "Director Huo!"

"Mr. Yan." Huo Changyuan shook it back.

He then stepped forward and pulled her to his side without leaving a trace.

Before Lin Wanbai could react, she stared blankly at the two of them.

Seeing that, Yan Feng smiled and answered her question, "I have a few friends who are in overseas real estate investments and have a good relationship with the Director Huo. That's why I had a meal together with them before.

"What luck!"

"You know my girlfriend, Mr. Yan?"

Huo Changyuan's gaze swept across the two of them and asked casually.

"A female companion?" Yan Feng was taken aback at first, but soon understood what he meant and smiled. "We're old acquaintances."

"Oh?" Huo Changyuan slowly raised his eyebrows.

His deep and calm eyes turned as he suddenly shot a sidelong glance at her.

His eyes were so deep that it was hard to see clearly. He stared at her like he was staring at a fire. "You did a pretty good dance."

"…" Lin Wanbai licked her lips.

Yan Feng paused for a moment, and then asked, "Director Huo, what is your relationship?"

Lin Wanbai was suddenly on the verge of collapse, her heart felt as if it was being turned upside down.

She stared at Huo Changyuan without blinking. She even wanted to jump over to cover his mouth, but she couldn't. So she could only tell him with her eyes that she didn't want to. She even asked him to …

A hint of pleading.

Huo Changyuan acted like he didn't see anything, as he leisurely smiled.

"We …"

Someone suddenly walked over and interrupted him.

It was directed at Yan Feng, who spoke fluent American English.

Yan Feng said apologetically, "Sorry, I need to go over for a while!"

Lin Wanbai's stiff body relaxed as she watched Yan Feng's upright figure disappear into the distance.

However, the next second, her heart felt like it was being stuffed into a hawthorn. She was shaking because even though she didn't say it out loud, Huo Changyuan's existence reminded her of something.

His current identity.

Warm bed, available at call...

Lin Wanbai lowered her head, even her blood seemed to have a life of its own as she went into a daze.

She didn't look at his black eyes as she said in a low voice, "I'm tired. Can we go back to the hotel first …"

"..."

Lin Wanbai was surprised.

Huo Changyuan didn't reject her suggestion to leave.

Even after walking step by step out of the banquet hall, she still subconsciously turned her head, afraid that he would chase after her and drag her back.

She really couldn't stay inside for another second …

After leaving the building, Lin Wanbai didn't wait for the Taxi. She held her skirt and walked along the roadside.

She was surrounded by a foreign environment, and the people she passed by were all blonde foreigners. No one would notice her feelings, so she could finally put on a face without worry …

A look of melancholy appeared on his face.

After walking for who knows how long, his phone began to vibrate.

Lin Wanbai held it up in front of her eyes, displaying a string of numbers.

Unable to escape this time, she had to pick it up.

"Xiao Wen, you're gone?"

"Yes." Lin Wanbai lied softly, "I drank too much champagne, so I'm going back to the hotel to rest first …"

"No wonder! You didn't even tell me when you were leaving, I thought you were going to hide from me again! "

"It was inconvenient at the banquet just now, so you don't want to tell me where you've been all year? "My family has moved and my cell phone number has changed. I said that you are a heartless person."

"That little girl is right!"

Separated by the phone line, the fingers Lin Wanbai used to lift her skirt turned green.

A misty look rose in her eyes as she heard his thick and gentle words.

When the color gradually turned red, Lin Wanbai held in her sobs, as if they were at a completely different frequency. "The military knife is broken …"

On the other end of the line, Yan Feng paused for a moment before smiling gently, "Silly girl, you can repair it if it's bad, or give it to you as a gift."

"I also want to …" "Zhou Zhou."

Lin Wanbai said this very slowly, especially after a pause.

"Alright." Yan Feng smiled and said, "I will tell him."

Lin Wanbai could not continue and found an excuse. "My phone is almost out of battery. We'll talk about it another day …"

After putting down the phone, she closed her eyes tightly.

Not long after, the phone vibrated again. Huo Changyuan was shouting on the screen.

"Where is he?!"

When he picked up the call, his voice also called out loud.

Lin Wanbai answered without thinking, "I'm at the hotel …"

"I've searched through the entire suite. Are you invisible?" Huo Changyuan said in a deep voice.

Lin Wanbai saw that she couldn't hide it any longer, so she looked around. Suddenly, she became at a loss. "I seem to have gotten lost …"

Huo Changyuan was silent for a moment before opening his mouth again, "What's around you!?" Buildings, signs are all right! "

Lin Wanbai was still at a loss. "I don't know either. This is a park …"

"Wait for me where I am!"

Lin Wanbai wanted to say no, she could go to the side of the road and wait for a taxi, but she was already hanging up.

With his orders, she didn't dare to continue forward. She could only carry her skirt and sit on the bench to the side. It might be due to her clothes being conspicuous, but she was also from the East …

Anyone passing by would look at her more.

When Huo Changyuan came over, there were two angry teenagers whistling at her.

He got out of the car, grabbed her arm without a word and stuffed her into the car.

Without saying anything along the way, they returned to the hotel. Huo Changyuan walked in front and used his room card to open the door.

He turned on the light and entered the bedroom. Only then did he stop and turn around. The light covered his shadow which was abnormally tall. It was as if he was looking down at her from above.

"What happened between you and Yan Feng?"

When he spoke, his expression did not change at all. It was as calm as the moonlight outside the window.

Lin Wanbai slowly pursed her lips and swallowed her saliva. "Just like what he said …"

"Old acquaintance?" Huo Changyuan repeated the two words.

"Mm …" She nodded very low.

Lin Wanbai didn't want to continue discussing this topic, so she silently went around to the other side of the bed and said, "I want to sleep now."

Huo Changyuan saw that she didn't even change her clothes. She was lying on the bed with her blanket covering her face. Half of her face was buried in the pillow. Her eyelashes were curved with worry under her eyelids …

Two shadows appeared.

After a long while, he finally fell asleep.

Huo Changyuan stood where he was in silence, staring at her with eyes as thin as a trial. However, he was as calm as Mt. Tai in the middle of a snowstorm.

Suddenly, he strode forward and roughly pulled away the blanket. "Get up! "Do it with me!"
