Chapter 17 Feast

In the office, the bitter tea fragrance lingers.

Lu Yuxing looked at Wanjie, and saw that the old man was thoughtful, and he couldn't see any joy or anger.After a while, he nodded solemnly.

"Your point is spot on." He sighed, leaning back on the sofa back. "Okay, I will consider your suggestion. Please leave the interview materials for this time and show me."

He didn't go on to talk about Zhu Hu's right and wrong, Lu Yuxing knew it well, so he went to the end.

After talking about official business, they began to talk about private matters.

Wan Jie asked a few words about Wu Renzong's recent situation, and Lu Yuxing took out the invitation letter and handed it to him.

Seeing the pale blue invitation letter, Wanjie smiled slightly, and played with it over and over again.

"This Tang Jialang, you urged me to come back because of this..." He murmured to himself, and then asked Lu Yuxing, "Do you know the Tang family?"

Lu Yuxing guessed something, and nodded vaguely.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a few more words before Lu Yuxing got up and left the office.

Outside the door, many people looked back at him expectantly.Seeing that he was safe and sound, the expectant eyes dimmed again.

Lu Yuxing ignored them and returned to his desk to sit down.

"Hey," Bai Wan patted his shoulder and whispered, "You haven't been scolded yet? We all thought you were going to be scolded badly."

"Mr. Wan has a bad temper?" Lu Yuxing smoothed the corners of the book unconsciously.

Bai Wan sighed, "I think he's scary, I'm scared just by his voice."

Lu Yuxing chuckled and shook his head.

At dusk, Lu Yuxing started to feel drowsy again, and he was even dizzy and out of breath.

The orange-yellow light penetrated through the shutters, stretching the shadows of everyone very, very long, like ghosts and ghosts, reflecting a suffocating image on the wall.

Colleagues left in twos and threes, and few noticed that something was wrong with the taciturn intern.

Bai Wan carried the new bag bought with her wages, turned her head to say goodbye to Lu Yuxing, and left humming a pop song.

Warm yellow light and shadow rushed towards the face, compressing the cramped space again and again.

Lu Yuxing reluctantly stood up, rolled the coat on the back of the chair into the elbow, and went downstairs in a daze.

The elevator was full of people, talking and laughing, making harsh sounds in the small space.Lu Yuxing's brows were tightly frowned, his expression was unkind.Seeing his expression, the colleagues around him all shut up.

After leaving the building, I saw a white Porsche parked on the side of the road with the windows open.The two buildings across the road cast a huge shadow over the square, leaving only a glaring crack in the middle.

Lu Yuxing squeezed out from the crowd of people getting off work, took a breath, and looked at the people in the car from a distance.Tang Tang sat in the driver's seat, his cheeks were gilded with gold.

When he was not around, there was no smile on Tang Tang's face, and the corners of his mouth that were always raised were flattened.His eyes were blank, the golden sunlight turned into a layer of light in his eyes, and the bustling pedestrians fell into his eyes, but he showed a look of compassion.

The car window was tapped lightly, and Tang Tang's shoulders shook, and he suddenly came back to his senses.

"Are you off work, Ah Xing?" When he saw Lu Yuxing, a lovely smile appeared on his face again.A strange light fell on him, like an angel shining on him.

Lu Yuxing's eyes fell on him, and he found that he had changed into a formal suit.The high-end suit was ironed properly, and the purple dark lines looked extravagant. It looked beautiful on him, like a little prince.

"How long have you been waiting?" Lu Yuxing couldn't help but reached out and scratched his cheeks, the strange feeling of congestion in his heart eased a little.

"Just here." Tang Tang blushed a little and scratched the place Lu Yuxing touched.He patted the passenger seat on the left and raised his eyebrows proudly. "Come on, I'll give you a ride today."

Lu Yuxing opened the door and sat in, somewhat surprised. "You can still drive?" He crossed his arms and watched Tang Tang skillfully start and start. "Or I'll drive."

As soon as the words fell, Tang Tang, who was still smiling, suddenly turned pale. "No!" He yelled out of control, holding the steering wheel tightly with his right hand, as if thinking of something terrible. "You are not allowed to drive!"

The body of the vehicle slammed on the brakes, and then drove out of the parking space.Tang Tang shifted gears quickly, and the expensive Porsche drifted left and right on the road for a moment, and finally got on the road steadily.

His gentle and obedient look was gone, and his eyes were determined and a little harsh.

Lu Yuxing watched quietly and asked:

"what happened?"

Tang Tang pursed his lips and gripped the steering wheel with both hands uneasily.The sunlight reflected on the glass of the high-rise buildings, making it hard for people to open their eyes.Lu Yuxing leaned back in his chair leisurely, staring at him.

The cold wind came in, blowing away the broken hair on Tang Tang's forehead.Lu Yuxing raised his hand and rolled up the window, and the car gradually returned to calm.

The speed of the car gradually slowed down, and Tang Tang's tensed arms finally relaxed.His facial features stretched out, and his complexion returned to normal.

"You...you are my girlfriend, of course I'm driving." He lightly raised the corners of his mouth.

The scenery outside the window receded quickly.Lu Yuxing still looked at him and didn't say any more.

Harbor Century Hotel is located in the South District of Hong Kong City.The majestic off-white modern building stands beside the harbour, with tall buildings behind it, and the bustling scene of lighting up the lights at night is like stars falling into the harbour.

The third floor of the hotel is a semi-open banquet hall. Looking out from the open-air platform, you can see the panoramic view of the entire harbor.During the Spring Festival, many rich people rushed to book the banquet hall, hoping to watch the fireworks from the best angle.

Lu Yuxing took a nap in the co-pilot, and then opened his eyes, the car had already driven into the garage.

Tang Tang took off his seat belt and was leaning over to adjust his tie.With half of his body leaning over, Lu Yuxing looked down at him, and saw him lowering his eyes, holding a silver tie clip between the buttons of his shirt.His fingers are so slender that it makes people have all kinds of unnecessary associations.

The headache had disappeared, Lu Yuxing wiped his face and sat up from his seat.

"This is for you." Tang Tang pointed at the silver tie clip with his finger, with a smile on his face, "It matches your suit very well."

"Thank you." Lu Yuxing pinned it, without looking at it again, "Let's go, the time is almost up."

The decoration of Century Hotel cannot simply be described by the word "luxury".Lu Yuxing used to come here for afternoon tea with his friends, and he knew every beam and every inch of the murals on the ceiling by heart.He led Tang Tang into the hall, and went directly to the third floor along the spiral stairs on both sides.

The melodious violin music was heard from the banquet hall on the third floor, and the glamorous guests arrived early and chatted around.

Lu Yuxing and Tang Tang walked side by side, climbed up the stairs, and arrived at the entrance of the banquet hall.Tang Tang winked at Lu Yuxing playfully and raised his hand.

"Hold me." He said with a smile.

Lu Yuxing looked down at him helplessly, and reluctantly stretched out his arms to hold him.Tang Tang's arms were thinner than his, and his hands were also smaller, so it seemed a bit weird to be held in such a way.Tang Tang didn't care, handed the invitation to the waiter at the door, and brought the "female companion" in with a smile on his face.

The lights in the banquet hall were very bright, reflecting the dazzling light from the jeweled jewelry of the guests.Countless pairs of high-end leather shoes and pointed high-heeled shoes stepped on the dark red patterned carpet, mixed with the smell of red wine, extremely luxurious.All of them are well-dressed and well-dressed.

However, even in such a crowd, Lu Yuxing and Tang Tang still stand out.Tang Tang had fluffy curly hair on his head, and the dark purple suit on his body showed a faint luster, making his skin look as beautiful as Hetian jade.Then look at the tall young man beside him, with shiny black hair combed back, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, one arm on his partner's elbow, one hand in his trousers pocket, like a heroic knight standing beside a prince.

Lu Yuxing glanced around, the banquet hall was surrounded by wine tables and towers of champagne.His eyes wandered among the guests, and he saw a man in his 50s surrounded by a large group of people from a distance.

The man had a short beard around his chin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was slightly fat.Standing beside him was an elegant lady in a long white dress, who was holding his arm intimately and chatting with the guests.

Lu Yuxing looked down again at the hand that was holding Tang Tang's arm, and was a little speechless.

"His name is Tang Hongda, and he is the host of this banquet." Tang Tang also saw the man in the corner, so he explained to Lu Yuxing, "The one next to him is the newly married wife." He pulled Lu Yuxing to the side, Two glasses were served from the finely arranged champagne tower. "How is it, isn't it beautiful?" He asked with a smile.

Lu Yuxing took the champagne and looked over there calmly.

"His surname is also Tang." He looked down at Tang Tang, then tightened his arms suddenly, and pulled him to him.

Tang Tang froze for a moment, Lu Yuxing's lips were already pressed against his ear.

His breath was warm, but his voice was as cold as winter.

"Tang Tang, how many things did you not tell me?"
