Chapter 179: Attending the Cocktail Party



(Today is the fourth watch)

The next day during military training, Lin Lin came to invite Luo Ziling directly.

“Ziling, do you want to come to the party with us today?” Lin Lin was quite shy when she invited Luo Ziling, looking as if she feared that Luo Ziling would refuse.

Her several roommates followed suit, causing a commotion, hoping that Luo Ziling would definitely go, otherwise Lin Lin would surely be sad.

This situation made Luo Ziling quite embarrassed, but in the end, he did not refuse.

Since Luo Ziling agreed, Lin Lin naturally was very happy.

“Why does this feel off?” Luo Ziling asked Cao Jianhui with confusion while they were walking back to the dormitory together.

“It’s normal for her to like you!” Cao Jianhui said with a look of mock resentment, “You’re handsome, and tall, plus you rescued her from the thugs that day. Of course, she has a good impression of you.”

“Boss, all the girls in our class have a crush on you. Just give them a sign, and anyone would surrender to you,” Li Fuming said mysteriously, “If you want to lose your virginity, you could choose any girl from the class. They would be more than willing.”

“Get lost,” Cao Jianhui kicked Li Fuming away, “The boss doesn’t even fancy a beauty like Ouyang Huihui, let alone the girls in our class? He already has Yang Qingyin, do you think he would consider the female classmates?”

After hearing this, Luo Ziling became angry and kicked each of the three guys: “I’ve warned you before, don’t talk nonsense, and why are you shouting?”

“Isn’t there no one else around?” Cao Jianhui said with a giggle, “We definitely wouldn’t talk about it if there were people around.”

The other two guys also hurriedly promised they wouldn’t spout nonsense in front of others, and Luo Ziling’s anger subsided.

After returning to the dormitory, the four of them took turns showering, getting ready to go to the party with Lin Lin.

“Boss, why aren’t you wearing your Versace suit?” Cao Jianhui asked curiously, seeing Luo Ziling dressed simply in casual attire, “If you wore that suit, you might have groups of beautiful women hitting on you. You don’t know, parties are the places where hook-ups are most likely to happen.”

“No thanks,” Luo Ziling shook his head; he didn’t want to draw too much attention. Ever since he had learned the price of that suit, he dared not wear it casually.

The clothes that Ling Ruonan had sent him, he also didn’t have the heart to wear.

Luo Ziling had examined all the gifts from Ling Ruonan carefully, tried on the clothes, but only wore the watch formally for a few days.

But now he had hidden the watch as well, as he became cautious about wearing it after learning it was also quite valuable.

“I’ll wear the clothes she sent and put on the watch when going to specific events!” Luo Ziling consoled himself.

Apart from Luo Ziling, the other three guys all wore their best clothes and spent a long time grooming themselves in front of the mirror.

Especially Cao Jianhui, who even used perfume and moussed his hair, provoking a round of teasing from the other three.

At five o’clock in the afternoon, Lin Lin called to say that they were getting ready to wait at the school gate, as a car was coming to pick them up, and told Luo Ziling’s group of four to hurry over.

When Luo Ziling and Cao Jianhui, Li Fuming, and Wu Longjiang arrived at the school gate, Lin Lin and her roommates were already sitting in a ten-seater business van waiting for them.

“My aunt’s company is having its grand opening, and they’ve hosted a reception, inviting some social figures to show support. They were worried some invited guests wouldn’t show up, leaving the event cold, so she asked me to bring a few classmates to make up the numbers and liven things up. Since there’s food and drink, and an opportunity to see the world, I invited everyone to come and have fun,” Lin Lin explained somewhat sheepishly to everyone after the car started.

Lin Lin and her classmates had all dressed up carefully, each looking pretty attractive, especially Lin Lin, who after dressing up, had quite the charm of a career woman, attracting occasional glances from Cao Jianhui, Li Fuming, and Wu Longjiang.

Cao Jianhui, Li Fuming, and Wu Longjiang also dressed up nicely, only Luo Ziling, in ordinary clothes, who would appear to anyone as a student who hadn’t seen much of the world and was quite reserved.

When getting on the van, the seat next to Lin Lin was vacant, and she invited Luo Ziling to sit there, but Luo Ziling hurried to sit with Li Fuming and pushed Cao Jianhui over instead.

Cao Jianhui shamelessly took the seat, and although Lin Lin felt a small disappointment inside, she ultimately said nothing.

The car soon arrived at the venue for the reception, the five-star “North Grand Hotel”.

The group alighted at the lobby entrance and followed the welcoming host up to the second-floor banquet hall.

Today, the entire second floor had been booked by Lin Lin’s aunt, and the banquet hall was also quite luxuriously arranged.

They weren’t particularly early or late; the banquet hall already had quite a few people inside, but there was still about half an hour before the start of the formal reception.

After the group followed Lin Lin into the banquet hall, a pretty well-dressed middle-aged woman, in her mid-thirties to mid-forties with an acceptable figure and appearance, came to greet them.

“Lin Lin, you’re here,” the woman greeted Lin Lin with a smile, and gave a nod with a smile to the group of classmates, “Lin Lin, you entertain your classmates for a bit. Your aunt and uncle need to greet the guests. Students, sorry for the inconvenience. Food and drinks are over there, just help yourselves.”

Cao Jianhui quickly said it was no problem, and told Lin Lin’s aunt not to worry about them.

Just then, a large group of people walked into the banquet hall, led by two young men who were quite handsome and very well-dressed.

“I didn’t expect Mr. Ling to actually come today,” said Lin Lin’s aunt after seeing the group that entered, and then she excused herself again, “He’s an important guest; I need to go and welcome him. I’m really sorry, students.”

“You can grab whatever you want to eat or drink,” Lin Lin took on the role of a half-host with enthusiasm, encouraging everyone, “We’ll enjoy ourselves, don’t mind them. Today we’re just here to make up the numbers. Our task is to eat our fill, so disregard the rest.”

Having little world experience, the freshmen, including Cao Jianhui, found Lin Lin’s words a bit uncomfortable to hear, feeling slightly annoyed by the fact that they were merely there to make up numbers. Yet he didn’t take it to heart, especially since he wanted to pursue Lin Lin; he quickly volunteered to help and led the way to get food and drinks.

After entering, Luo Ziling had already put on his big glasses; he didn’t want to be recognized. He didn’t walk around much and, keeping a low profile, began to fill his plate with food alongside Li Fuming, planning to eat something first.

As Luo Ziling and Li Fuming discreetly grabbed some food and drink, intending to find a spot to hide away and fill their bellies first, noise from a quarrel nearby reached them.

Looking over, it turned out that Cao Jianhui had gotten into an argument with one of the young men who had just walked in.
