C72
For the past two days, Lin Wanbai had been sleeping in the hotel.
It was already close to evening when she opened her eyes. On the third day, she purposely set the alarm clock and got up at noon.
However, without Huo Changyuan's permission, Lin Wanbai didn't dare to run around. After eating dinner in the restaurant, she obediently stayed in her room. She turned on the TV and turned on the Chinese channel to put on the family drama.
She stood up from the sofa as if she had been electrocuted when the door key clicked.
However, the one who came in wasn't Huo Changyuan, but was Jiang Fang who was also wearing a black suit, "Miss Lin, Director Huo asked me to come and pick you up!"
"Oh!"
Lin Wanbai didn't dare to delay and hurriedly followed.
The car was parked on a quiet street, but there were a lot of shops lined up, looking very upscale and tasteful.
Jiang Fang brought her into one of the shops where women's clothing was hung. Seeing her puzzled eyes, he explained: "Director Huo has a banquet tonight and intends to have Miss Lin as her female companion!"
"Ah ?" "Me?" Lin Wanbai was stunned.
Jiang Fang nodded with a smile and pushed open the glass door for her.
Huo Changyuan was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed and a magazine in his hand. He didn't look at the magazine, but a hint of impatience could be seen between his brows.
Seeing this, Lin Wanbai quickened her steps.
When Huo Changyuan saw her, he scolded her, "Why are you so slow?" Then he threw the magazine to the side and took her directly to the second floor.
Upstairs, the space was more spacious than downstairs. All of them displayed were beautiful evening gowns.
Huo Changyuan let go of her hand and pushed her forward, "Pick one that you like."
Lin Wanbai turned around and glanced at him. She bit her lips and swallowed the words of rejection.
Although she wasn't particularly interested in dinner parties and didn't really want to go, he had always kept his mouth shut, and evening dresses were mostly rented, so she felt much less burdened.
The designer explained in detail while Lin Wanbai pointed at one of them. "This silver-gray one!"
"No!" There's no fabric on the back. "
Before the designer could take out the clothes, Huo Changyuan said in a deep voice.
"This?" Lin Wanbai could only point again.
"The collar was opened too wide!" Huo Changyuan frowned.
"Then what about this one?"
"Change again!"
"?"
Lin Wanbai had no choice but to worry about the rows of beautiful ceremonial dresses.
Huo Changyuan walked over from behind. He poked with his long finger and took out a black shoulder piece, "Wear this!"
"Oh ?" Lin Wanbai took it silently.
Since that was the case, why let her choose!
The designer picked out a pair of silver high-heeled shoes and changed them into the fitting room. It wasn't that complicated. The flat shoulder design was very conservative, only exposing the position of the collarbone.
Not long after Lin Wanbai wore it, she encountered a difficult problem.
The zipper was behind her, and she looked into the mirror for a long time, but she couldn't quite reach it.
After a long struggle, Lin Wanbai finally gave up. She opened the door a crack and said, "Excuse me, can you help me pull the zipper?"
"Please wait a moment!"
When the door opened again, she ignored it and turned to expose her back.
Lin Wanbai trembled when her rough fingers touched her skin.
He turned around and was shocked. The one who came in was indeed not the designer, but the tall Huo Changyuan. Even the space became crowded in an instant.
Lin Wanbai wanted to dodge, but she didn't have a place to do so. All she could do was allow his breath to envelop her from behind.
Huo Changyuan didn't immediately zip her up, instead, he moved his hand forward, "Vacuum?"
"?" Lin Wanbai bit her lips.
It was impossible to wear these kind of ceremonial dresses because there would be traces of them appearing if there were two of them.
Lin Wanbai almost couldn't stand up anymore when she felt hot flowers blooming on his thin lips. Her voice trembled a little as she said, "Don't be like this. You'll be seen ?"
Huo Changyuan's hands and lips didn't seem to want to leave, and it was getting more and more intense.
"Take it off for me tonight, huh?"
Lin Wanbai's breathing slowed as she was burned by the fire in his voice.
She took a sip that wasn't light on her shoulder. She could only nod very lightly, "En ?"
Huo Changyuan seemed to be satisfied with the result. He retracted his hand and said with a slight zipper sound, "Alright!"
Lin Wanbai didn't feel like going out immediately. After he closed the door for a while, she slowly pushed the door open again with a blushing face. However, she still bumped into the designer's dubious gaze.
After changing clothes, she put on her makeup and sat down to emphasize her point in English, "You don't have to make it too complicated. Just make it simple!"
"OK!"
After about half an hour, the brush on his face finally dropped.
Lin Wanbai looked at the woman in the mirror, unable to believe that it was herself.
It wasn't heavily made-up and very light, but it had made her outline look completely new. According to her request, her hair style wasn't that complicated either. She only braided it diagonally on her forehead and coiled it behind her back.
Lin Wanbai held up her skirt and stood up, suddenly feeling a little nervous from Huo Changyuan's reaction.
Just like when he entered, Huo Changyuan was sitting cross-legged on the sofa. However, he had also changed into a suit. The long and slim hem of the suit accentuated his narrow waist and long legs, perfectly showing off the elegance of his suit.
He was tired of waiting, his index finger tapping on his watch.
Lin Wanbai put her hand to her mouth and coughed a little.
Huo Changyuan raised his head, just like her in the mirror just now. His deep eyes were filled with disbelief as he directly stood up from the sofa and strode towards her. He stared at her face without blinking as his Adam's apple moved up and down.
"You had a plastic surgery?"
Lin Wanbai's face was red with embarrassment. "Uh, fine-tuning ?"
"..."
As he got into the car, the scenery of the foreign street flashed by.
She was holding a tube of lipstick that the makeup artist had given her before she left. Even if Lin Wanbai pretended to be thinking about it, she couldn't ignore the feeling of being around her.
In the end, she couldn't take it anymore, so she took the initiative to ask, "Uh, how far are we from now?"
Huo Changyuan cast a sidelong glance at her, but didn't answer her question.
"I want to kiss you."
Lin Wanbai's heartbeat quickened.
He leaned back in his chair, unable to avoid the kiss, and closed his eyes.
Red light, who was in front of him, stepped on the brakes, causing the coquettish kiss to end.
Huo Changyuan took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it up.
The white smoke slowly dispersed in the carriage and Lin Wanbai's breathing returned to normal. However, the taste of his breath remained on her lips.
Ye Zichen sneaked a peek at him, and saw that both his face and lips were showing signs of tensing up. He couldn't help but clench his fingers, since he didn't know where he got in his way.
"You ? "What's wrong?"
Lin Wanbai asked carefully.
Huo Changyuan smoked heavily and leaned over to bite her ear, "I regret bringing you here."
