Chapter 60 - Dinner Party Night {3}
Han family hotel, all guests slowly arrived. Luxury cars began to enter the hotel grounds and out in a hurry. Some bring their partner, and some come alone. Expensive tuxedo suits, with a pair of beautiful dresses that one can't deny, all look very classy, indicating that they are not random people. The board of shareholders and the board of directors looked so perfect for filling a hotel room that had decorated very luxuriously and elegantly. Who already arranged the banquet there, some waiters served the guests with great respect. The music from several well-known orchestras sang so beautifully, and there were even a couple of married couples who decided to dance there.
"You ..." Xiao Long glanced at Qiao Xin with a sharp gaze. When the two of them arrived in front of the hotel, Xiao Long also smirked, then he adjusted his hair which was already neat. "Remember, you have to be confident. You can't be nervous or feel anything. You must emphasize in your heart that you are Young Madam Han. You are the wife of the handsome, and authoritative CEO Han. Don't embarrass my name in front of many people, act embarrassingly. There's a lot of good food there too, if you want to tell me let me get it for you, don't act like a scumbag who's going to devour all the food there, and—"
"Crap!"
Xiao Long couldn't help but stare, his eyes wide as he saw Qiao Xin getting out of the car. Qiao Xin glanced at Xiao Long with an annoyed look, then she was about to walk, but her balance was lacking. Qiao Xin quickly grabbed hold of the car door, causing Xiao Long to mock her. After Xiao Long came out, he returned to fix his appearance, and then Xiao Long looked at Qiao Xin again.
"Are you strong? you should wait for your handsome husband, don't interrupt when your husband is talking, if you don't want to get karma."
"Tsk!"
Xiao Long and Qiao Xin now looked at each other, both glaring at each other. It had never occurred to Qiao Xin before that she would be associated with the most chatty, narcissistic, most annoying man in this world.
Then, Xiao Long immediately grabbed Qiao Xin's hip because his family was already with him. He tried to smile, and then his finger touched Qiao Xin's nose briefly.
"Honey, come on in," he said.
Qiao Xin desperately tried to suppress her anger, it seemed that she had been tested by Xiao Long to the point where she had to cross boundaries. After she saw Xiao Long, Qiao Xin smiled and nodded again. Moreover, what Qiao Xin had to do was indeed, keeping quiet and avoiding arguing with Xiao Long was what she had to do now.
After that, they began to walk inside, entering the room that had been provided. All eyes were on the new couple, namely Qiao Xin and Xiao Long. How not, the fact that the prestige of the Han family can not be denied by anyone. Especially when it comes to Xiao Long himself. There are lots of speculations and predictions about who Xiao Long's lover is all this time, what Xiao Long's lover is like, from which circle of lucky women are these, and so on. Because from what they know, Xiao Long is a typical man who closes his personal scope, especially when it comes to love. So don't be surprised if there are many rumors circulating that Xiao Long is homosexual, doesn't like women, and so on. When in fact, in reality Xiao Long was the most skilled player in women's matters. And seeing Xiao Long come with his wife was a fantastic thing. They didn't even stop chuckling in admiration at the figure beside Xiao Long.
After Xiao Long and Qiao Xin stopped in their tracks, the lights in the room instantly turned dim, only highlighting the two of them and it managed to make Qiao Xin somewhat nervous. Her heart started beating fast, she didn't think she had to dance at a time like this. Even Qiao Xin had just walked in, she wasn't used to this room, nor was the gaze of dozens of pairs of eyes in this room. the voice suddenly became quiet, Xiao Long slowly began to bend down and stretched out his hand, the soft music began to sound very beautiful, Qiao Xin was still silent and looked at Xiao Long's face with a scared expression.
"Honey, it's me. You don't have to worry," Xiao Long whispered.
As if the sentence was a sentence containing magic, Qiao Xin nodded obediently. Responding to Xiao Long's outstretched hand, the two of them took each other's hand. They began to walk to the music, slowly and very softly, even with love. Xiao Long's gaze did not leave Qiao Xin at all, and it managed to make Qiao Xin very real hypnotized. Qiao Xin continued to observe Xiao Long's face in detail, and then she smiled wryly. Xiao Long's hands immediately cupped Qiao Xin's body, and then Qiao Xin spun around and was caught by Xiao Long in his embrace for real. The sound of the music immediately stopped, overwritten by the sound of applause that was so lively. But the dim light was still very real, as if reluctant to let the husband and wife out of their place. Xiao Long seemed to be smiling. He pulled an eyebrow, looked into Qiao Xin's clear eyes, looked at Qiao Xin's pointed nose. Plus, those lips.
Xiao Long immediately brought his face closer, making Qiao Xin gasp in surprise, with his thumb covered by Xiao Long kissing Qiao Xin's lips. A kiss with the septum of the thumb, but enough to make Qiao Xin's breath almost stop for a moment. How not, her nose and Xiao Long's nose were in very real contact.
The thunderous applause again sounded even more lively. Slowly the dim lights turned into full light that was so dazzling. Qiao Xin looked like she was about to lower her face, but Xiao Long quickly grabbed Qiao Xin's hips again.
"Now that you will be introduced to them, don't be nervous just yet. Put on the ugliest smile, say nothing, and just nod. Let me handle everything for you. Do you understand?"
"Ugly smile?" Qiao Xin asked in a half-whisper. Xiao Long looked at Qiao Xin, and then she raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, ugly smile. Isn't your smile ugly? Even uglier than your face."
Qiao Xin could only stare, but she didn't reply to Xiao Long's words. The two of them now began to approach their grandfather and put on a very happy face as if they were a couple who loved each other.
"Mr. Han, I am really quite surprised. The news of CEO Han's wedding really shocked many people. How can this happy news be kept to yourself? There were no invitations to the wedding, we really regretted it. But when hearing the reason behind it, especially since the Han family's daughter-in-law is shy I understand, now that there is a banquet to introduce Young Madam Han, it is something that really satisfies us. CEO Han, and Young Madam Han, congratulations on your marriage. May you two become husband and wife who love each other, and soon give birth to a new offspring for the Han family."
Qiao Xin immediately choked on her spit, and she didn't expect the discussion to go that far. Everyone immediately looked at Qiao Xin, making Qiao Xin lower her face deeply.
"Master Lao, see if my granddaughter-in-law is very shy. If you keep saying that, I'm afraid that Qiqi will faint from embarrassment," said Xiao Chuan. Everyone laughed at that and managed to make Qiao Xin even more embarrassed.
"Sorry, I'll excuse myself to the toilet first," said Qiao Xin.
Qiao Xin immediately walked out of the room, but she accidentally bumped into someone. The figure of a man with blond hair, with charming small eyes. The man was wearing a grey tuxedo and looked at Qiao Xin with a confused face. How not, the man came late, so he just entered the event room.
"Sorry, Miss. Are you okay?" asked the man. The nervous Qiao Xin just looked down, and then she walked quickly to look for the toilet. Seeing Qiao Xin's anxious behaviour, the man walked over to Qiao Xin instead. "Miss, are you looking for something?" asked the man again. Qiao Xin seemed to snort because she didn't like being bothered by anyone the most.
"I'm looking for a toilet, Mr," Qiao Xin finally answered.
"My name is Xuan Cheng, you may call me Brother Cheng. The toilet is at the end of the hall, you just turn left, Miss. May I know your name?" Xuan Cheng asked. Yes, he was very curious about this beautiful woman who was avoiding him. "Don't worry, I'm not a bad person. Maybe you're unfamiliar with my face because I just got here. I've been busy taking care of Dad's overseas business, and I've come to take his place at this important meeting. Yes, though I thought if possible I was too late for this banquet. but I have the initiative to come, of course."
Qiao Xin just smiled, then she took a deep breath. It seems that now Qiao Xin should often think positive. How could it not be if she continued to be consumed by her fear of men, then she would never be able to act normally, but Qiao Xin would continue to be so humiliating.
"Alright, Brother Cheng. Thank you for helping me show me where the toilet is," Qiao Xin finally answered. Xuan Cheng nodded, looking at Qiao Xin, who was rushing towards the toilet. Xuan Cheng seemed to put his hands in his pants pockets, and then he smiled wryly.
"Interesting woman."
