Chapter 3: Roaring Laughter
Clearly, Lin Lanxin's appearance was still quite unexpected for them. Lin Lanxin was not just ordinarily beautiful; it is worth noting that Chengfeng University has around 30,000 students, and she is one of the top ten campus beauties. Her beauty and temperament are beyond imagination, deserving to be described as one in a million
Su Chen does not like this kind of environment; he prefers private rooms
If Xu Ming did not show any interest in Lin Lanxin, it would be fine, but since Xu Ming has expressed his interest, in this case, daring to compete with Xu Ming would be tantamount to seeking death
Half an hour later
Hahaha ... ..." After the woman finished speaking, everyone at the table laughed, including Zhang Qingmeng
In addition to Zhang Qingmeng, there are seven boys and two girls at the same table, all of similar age, and at this moment, everyone is staring at Lin Lanxin
Su Chen! Su Chen speaks very little
That is Zhang Qingmeng, my classmate from childhood. Her family used to be neighbors with mine. Both she and I are twenty years old this year, born in the same year, and she is a few months older than me. After finishing middle school, she was sent abroad to study and has just returned a few days ago!" Lin Lanxin introduced to Su Chen, then linked her arm with Su Chen's and walked towards that table.
Zhang Qingmeng enthusiastically pulled Lin Lanxin over to sit beside her and introduced her to the others at the table: "This is my childhood best friend Lin Lanxin, a stunning beauty, right? I wasn't lying to you, was I?"
Miss Lin, I am Chen Dahong, you are truly beautiful. Previously, Qingmeng mentioned that she has a stunningly beautiful best friend, and we didn't believe it!
... ...
Lánxīn, over here! As soon as I arrived, I heard someone calling out.
"Strange person!" Mu Ziling murmured, committing the name Su Chen to memory
"Lanxin, if you can't drink, you can have a beverage!" Xu Ming said with a faint smile, persistently.
"Lanxin, I toast to you, I am Xu Ming!" Just as everyone had basically finished their introductions, another man stood up.
Su Chen said nothing, quietly sitting there, calmly eating pastries
Several men were speaking, each dressed very elegantly in suits and leather shoes. They gazed at Lin Lanxin with intense eyes, claiming to introduce themselves, but in fact, they were somewhat showing off their family backgrounds and status.
The woman, somewhat pleased with herself, raised her hand adorned with a jade ring and pointed at Su Chen: "This young master Su, you certainly know how to live! You have fully embodied the traditional virtue of hard work and perseverance. The total cost of your clothing must not even reach 1,000 yuan, right? And you've been wearing them for a few years now? They are almost faded from washing! The suit on Xu Shao must be enough for you to buy clothes for a hundred years!"
I have a boyfriend!" Lin Lanxin frowned slightly, feeling both surprised and, more importantly, disappointed
The person greeting Lin Lanxin is a woman of similar age, who is fairly attractive; however, when compared to Lin Lanxin and Mu Ziling, she falls significantly short.
Su Chen remained silent and sat beside Lin Lanxin
This may also be the reason why Zhang Qingmeng prefers to hold the banquet in such a hall rather than changing to another hotel to book a private room
Meanwhile, the expressions of the others at the same table varied.
Xu Shao, please call me Miss Lin! I am not accustomed to being called Lanxin by people I am not familiar with!" Lin Lanxin's voice became a bit colder
"He is my ... ... my boyfriend ... ..." Lin Lanxin's face flushed even more, yet her heart was filled with sweetness
Lin Lanxin felt somewhat at a loss because she did not know how to drink alcohol
She is wearing a blue qipao, adorned with a string of pearl necklaces, and on her wrist is a Chopin watch, her entire outfit conveying to others that she is wealthy
Soon, several eager voices rang out
"Lanxin, why are you in a daze? Xu Shao is toasting you, why aren't you quickly having a drink? Xu Shao rarely toasts anyone, you are truly fortunate!" Zhang Qingmeng whispered excitedly as she nudged Lin Lanxin with her arm.
The woman is wearing a red blouse and a black knee-length skirt, her hair is styled up, and her face is adorned with somewhat heavy makeup, all while sporting a beaming smile
Certainly, the hall here is no less expensive than the private rooms of other hotels, as the Wancheng Grand Hotel is the only ultra five-star hotel in the entire Chengfeng City, and it is very costly
Happiness has died? What hearing does Su Chen have? Naturally, he heard Zhang Qingmeng's words, and his eyes turned somewhat cold. Lan Xin, this childhood good friend, is not a good person at all
Moreover, the way the other party looked at her seemed as if they were acquainted, even though it was clearly their first meeting.
She did not expect Zhang Qingmeng to say such a thing. If she were unaware that she had a boyfriend, it would be one thing, but clearly she knew about it and still wanted to matchmake her with that Xu Shao, her childhood best friend, whose character is somewhat questionable
At the Wanqian Grand Hotel, in the banquet hall on the third floor, Lin Lanxin and Su Chen walked up hand in hand
The student is in the same class as He Lanxin! Su Chen glanced at Xu Ming.
Miss Lin, I am Zheng Dongfeng. My family is in the timber business. It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Lin
Saying this, Xu Ming looked at Su Chen and asked, "I wonder what Mr. Su does for a living?"
Su Chen and Lin Lanxin arrived at the table
I do not drink alcohol!" Lin Lanxin spoke up
"Young Master Su? Hehe... Xu Shao, the title of 'Young Master' is not something that just anyone can bear; not everyone is like you, Xu Shao..." One of the two girls at the same table, aside from Zhang Qingmeng and Lin Lanxin, spoke up.
"Then, I shall not disturb you any longer!" Mu Ziling said with a smile, and then left, but deep down, she felt a sense of curiosity, a curiosity about Su Chen
Hehe... Miss Lin has a somewhat proud temperament! Xu Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of coldness appearing on his face. Clearly, he was filled with anger, but he did not erupt immediately. Instead, he sat down and glanced at Su Chen again: "However, Miss Lin's judgment is not that great!"
What puzzled Mu Ziling the most was that Su Chen's gaze seemed to see through everything, and she inexplicably felt as if she had no secrets at all in front of him
Then, the other two girls at the same table were staring at Lin Lanxin with some hostility. They both had an interest in Xu Ming, but Xu Ming was interested in Lin Lanxin, so they were naturally unhappy.
The entire banquet hall has no fewer than 20 tables, all of which do not know each other; however, the banquet hall is very large and luxurious, so it does not appear crowded.
Very soon
He stood up with a warm smile, holding a wine glass, and drank it down in one go
She unexpectedly sensed a faint, extremely faint aura of danger emanating from Su Chen
Is it an illusion
Hello everyone, I am Lin Lanxin! Lin Lanxin spoke very little, softly introducing herself with a sentence, and then looked at Su Chen: "He is my boyfriend, Su Chen!"
Firstly, the several men who had previously introduced themselves to Lin Lanxin, clearly interested in her, felt a slight awkwardness
You... Lánxīn, what can I say to you? Xu Shao is one of the top young masters in the entire Chengfeng City, and it is your honor that he is interested in you. To refuse him is truly infuriating!" Zhang Qingmeng reproached, "Even if you can't drink, it's fine to have a little!"
He wears gold-rimmed glasses, has hair that is slicked back, a prominent nose, a slightly pale complexion, and exudes a somewhat scholarly demeanor
I am Yang Yu, and like Qing Meng, I have just returned from studying abroad. I studied at Stanford University
Hello, I am Mu Ziling, a friend of Lan Xin. Mu Ziling glanced at Su Chen again and spoke.
Lin Lanxin looked towards a position by the window on one side of the banquet hall, where a glass round table was already occupied by about ten people
