After Xue Fei followed him in, she went to report back to Jiang Jinian. Lu Sheng was bored, so he decided to walk around and eat.
One has to admit that this banquet’s standards were quite high. The buffet on the table was all made from carefully prepared meat from exotic beasts.
Lu Sheng was happily eating when he unexpectedly saw Zheng Dandan, whom he hadn’t seen in a while.
Lu Sheng quickly realized.
Yes, Zheng Dandan was from Liangcheng.
***
Zheng Dandan’s face was brimming with happiness and happiness. Her cheeks were flushed red.
“Lu Sheng, why are you here?” Then, Zheng Dandan quickly added, “When did you come to Liangcheng?”
“I just arrived today.”
“Oh.” Zheng Dandan suddenly realized something and asked, “You came to the Liangcheng because of this?”
Zheng Dandan pointed at the banquet they were at.
Lu Sheng thought about it and nodded, “I guess so.”
“That … that’s great!” Zheng Dandan was so excited that she couldn’t speak. She felt like she and Lu Sheng were destined to meet. If her best friend didn’t force her to come to this banquet, she wouldn’t be here, and she wouldn’t have run into Lu Sheng.
What was this called?
This was the will of the heavens.
She was originally a little unhappy about being forced to come to an event she didn’t like. But now, Zheng Dandan wanted to hug Xin Yuan and scream excitedly. How could she be her best friend? She was clearly a matchmaker that God had specially arranged for her to be with Lu Sheng.
“Dandan, why don’t you introduce your friend to me?” A teasing voice rang beside their ears.
Zheng Dandan turned around and saw her best friend, Xin Yuan.
Xin Yuan held onto her glass of red wine and checked out the young man standing before her.
Appearance, body, temperament … no matter which aspect, he was the best choice.
Plus, he had the right to be here …
“You, Zheng Dandan, already had a target in mind. You even lied to me, saying he was just a friend. I had no idea about any male friends you had …” Xin Yuan tilted her head and whispered into Zheng Dandan’s ear.
Zheng Dandan’s face flashed with shyness, “What are you talking about? Aye, let me introduce you …”
Zheng Dandan grabbed onto Xin Yuan’s hand and said to Lu Sheng, “Lu Sheng, this is my best friend, Xin Yuan. This is Lu Sheng, the one I mentioned to you before …”
“Lu Sheng, you are Lu Sheng?” Hearing Zheng Dandan’s introduction, Xin Yuan almost spat out the red wine in her mouth. The way she looked at Lu Sheng immediately changed. It turned a little strange.
“No wonder you’re so young. You’re the high school student that Dandan fell head over heels for. I couldn’t tell with you wearing a suit. So you looks like this, no wonder … ”
It had to be said that the boy named Lu Sheng in front of her was definitely outstanding in terms of appearance. Even in their circle where handsome men and beautiful women could be seen everywhere, he could still beat 99% of them. Coupled with a mysterious background …
Xin Yuan suddenly understood the reason behind Zheng Dandan’s yearning for love. Of course, the enthusiasm in her eyes towards Lu Sheng quickly diminished.
“So you are Mr. … Mr. Lu. I’ve always heard Dandan mention you. You are indeed a dragon among men.”
Xin Yuan couldn’t help but laugh at the thought that she was facing a high school student.
Lu Sheng easily caught the subtle changes in Xin Yuan’s emotions, but he didn’t say anything. He just nodded coldly. “Hello.”
“Where is Mr. Lu from?” Xin Yuan asked with a polite smile on her face.
“Baihe City.” Lu Sheng replied. “Are you going to ask me about my parents, about my family background, and how I got into this banquet hall?” Lu Sheng asked calmly.
Lu Sheng looked at the stunned Xin Yuan with a mocking expression. He said to Zheng Dandan, “I’m leaving now. Talk to you later.”
After saying that, he turned and left.
Why did he hate this kind of occasion?
It was probably because of this reason.
Outsiders might think that he was a bit sensitive, but … So what?
He was originally a child from an ordinary family. If he was sensitive, then so be it. In any case, he felt uncomfortable.
“I might as well have eaten happily at the hotel …” Lu Sheng shook his head. He casually threw the crumpled fork onto the table.
“Lu Sheng! Lu Sheng …” Before Zheng Dandan could react, Lu Sheng had already walked away. She wanted to chase after him, but Xin Yuan grabbed her. Xin Yuan shook her head at her with a serious expression.
“Forget it, Dandan. This kind of person isn’t worth it …”
Xin Yuan looked at Lu Sheng’s back. She narrowed her eyes and said with some amusement, “I didn’t even say anything and his reaction is already so big. What does this mean? It means that he cares a lot about what he just said. He doesn’t have any ability, but he has a strong ego. To put it nicely, it’s pride. To put it bluntly, it’s inferiority. I’ve seen too many people like him. He’s not suitable for you … Look …”
A look of understanding suddenly appeared on Xin Yuan’s face. She then pointed her finger in front of her.
Zheng Dandan looked in the direction Xin Yuan was pointing.
She saw that Lu Sheng was standing next to a beautiful and eye-catching woman in a red dress. The two of them were talking.
“I think I can guess how he got in here …” Xin Yuan joked, “Do you know who that woman is?” Zheng Dandan shook her head blankly.
“Xue Fei! You should know about the Xue family. Xue Fei is a spiritual master. She’s almost at Level 2. In the circle of the second generation heirs of Liangcheng, she’s definitely one of the best. Look at how close Lu Sheng and Xue Fei are. I’ll make a bet!” Xin Yuan looked at Zheng Dandan and said with certainty, “This Lu Sheng must have relied on his looks or some other method to get in with Xue Fei. That’s how he got in. To put it bluntly, he’s probably living off a woman. Dandan, open your eyes and see his true colors.”
Xin Yuan’s words hit Zheng Dandan’s heart like a hammer.
Zheng Dandan stood there with a blank look on her face. Looking at Lu Sheng and Xue Fei who were talking and laughing and acting intimately, she muttered, “No way … Lu Sheng is not that kind of person …”
“Sigh …” Xin Yuan looked at Zheng Dandan helplessly, patted her shoulder, and said, “I know sometimes the truth is so cruel. But this is something everyone has to face. I’ll say this much. You can think about the rest …”
Saying that, Xin Yuan retreated to the side. Zheng Dandan was still immersed in the huge impact of Xin Yuan’s words. She couldn’t believe that Xin Yuan words. Suddenly, the figure of a young man as bright as the sun squeezed into her mind.
Zheng Dandan woke up from a dream.
“My god, I actually suspected that Lu Sheng of being a gigolo, someone living off a woman? Am I really that stupid?” Zheng Dandan wanted to give herself a tight slap.
“Xin Yuan! Xin Yuan! Let me tell you, Lu Sheng can’t be that kind of person …” Zheng Dandan was anxious to explain to Xin Yuan, but Xin Yuan thought she was still stubborn and didn’t want to listen.
At this time, there was a commotion in front of them.
