At the banquet, Lin Xi sat in a corner and watched the man who every woman in Semle wanted to marry. She watched him for half an hour.
Looking at the people coming and going around him, she found that they were either businessmen in suits or sexy ladies in very revealing clothing.
How troublesome.
She put down the wine glass and felt annoyed.
Her plan failed. She didn't even have a chance to talk to him. Did the Lin family really expect to rely on her to build a relationship with this man and use the Chu family as a life-saving straw?
In their dreams!
As soon as Lin Xi put down her glass, she noticed a gaze staring at her. She raised her head and saw a young man suddenly sitting next to her.
The black hoodie covered half of his face, and his messy hair almost covered his eyes.
Under the dim light in the corner, his bright eyes made him look like a cat at night.
"Kid, what are you looking at?" She glared at him in a very unfriendly manner.
The young man did not say anything. He merely exchanged a glance with her and turned his gaze away leisurely. He lowered his head to play with his phone and ignored her.
"Why are you so rude? I'm asking you a question." Lin Xi vented her anger tonight on this unknown kid.
The young man finally looked up and stopped playing with his phone. Looking into her eyes, he calmly said, "I'm not a kid."
He paused for a moment and seemed to be a little helpless. "You're drinking my wine."
What?
As Lin Xi spoke, she looked over and realized that there was a glass of red wine beside her that was full, so the one she had just put down...
Was his?
"I'm sorry..." Lin Xi reacted and felt that she was in the wrong. She casually apologized, but she also felt that she couldn't let a younger man laugh at her, so she asked, "Did you drink it yet? Why didn't you stop me?"
The young man paused for a moment, apparently speechless by her questions. So he sighed silently, got up, and was ready to leave.
"Don't worry, I'm not sick." He did not answer her question, but directly answered her inner doubts.
The vague answer made her a little embarrassed.
"Who are you? What's your name?" Lin Xi wanted to stop him.
He didn't intend to stay. He just walked past her and said,
"Chu Ci."
