Chapter 290: Dinner Party

Translator: Henyee  Editor: Henyee

Qiao Liang nodded, asked Tang Xi to wait for him here and got out of the car to pick her bag. Tang Xi waved her hand, said goodbye and told him to come back quickly. He walked away from the car but after only taking two steps, he suddenly turned around. Tang Xi blinked and looked at him. “Anything else?”

Qiao Liang bent over, gazed at Tang Xi with a large smile and said, “Yes.” He then kissed her on the lips and said gently, “I’ll take my reward first before I go.” With that, he stood up, and turned to walk towards the hotel.

Tang Xi’s mouth was still open in shock when Qiao Liang had walked far away. Was he flirting with her?!

She blushed when she recalled his loving eyes. She cupped her face as her mind was filled with the scene of Qiao Liang saying in a magnetic voice, ‘I’ll take my reward first’…

If Qiao Liang used to be an iceberg man in her mind, he had now become a prince charming who was honey-lipped and good at flirting with women. However he exclusively belonged to her.

On this side, Lu Li followed Wen Ning into the elevator. As there were many people in the elevator, the two of them were shoved to the back. A man happened to stand in front of Wen Ning, and his back were almost touching Wen Ning’s breasts. Wen Ning felt very uncomfortable and frowned, but there were too many people in the elevator, so she couldn’t do anything but try to move backwards as much as possible. However, every time she moved backwards, the man also moved backwards… Wen Ning scowled and was about to speak, when someone suddenly pulled her into a warm embrace, and then a faint male smell of tobacco filled her nostrils. She looked up at the man who held her in his arms…

Time was really unfair. He was already in his thirties, but he looked like a twenty something, while she, who was also in her thirties, was still beautiful but time had relentlessly left its mark on her face…

“It’s been ten years.” Wen Ning looked up at Lu Li who happened to look at her. When their eyes made contact, neither of them moved their gazes away. They gazed deeply at each other. Just when Lu Li was about to ask Wen Ning what she meant by saying this, the elevator bell rang to remind them they had reached their floor.

People in the elevator walked out one by one and only two of them were left. Wen Ning smiled at Lu Li, gently pushed him away and walked out of the elevator. As she passed by him, she said, “But you remain unchanged.”

He was unchanged no matter in appearance or character. He was still handsome, cold and didn’t understand a woman’s heart.

Lu Li followed Wen Ning out and took Wen Ning’s arm. He looked around, found the hall that Wen Ning was going to, and led her towards it as he said, “Thank you for your praise, Inspector Wen, but you’ve changed a lot, for example, your ranks. A lot of people will envy your promotion speed.”

Wen Ning smiled, looked up at Lu Li and raised her eyebrows. “Yes, that’s because I know I’m a soldier.”

“I remember it was you, my instructor who told me to remember my identity.” With that, Wen Ning took back her hand, took out the invitation card from her bag, showed it to the usher at the door before she took Lu Li’s arm and walked inside.

Lu Li didn’t get angry or turn to walk away as she had thought. He just smiled and said politely, “I’m so honored that Inspector Wen still remembers my words.”

The smile on Wen Ning’s face froze. She took a deep breath and smiled. She then took two glasses of champagne from the tray carried by a waiter and handed one to Lu Li. “But I hate these words. Because of them, I lost the man I love.”

Lu Li was about to take the champagne. His hand paused when he heard this but his face was expressionless. “Really? I’m sorry to hear that.”

Wen Ning looked at the nonchalant look of Lu Li and a sad gleam flickered across her eyes. She then said sarcastically, “Yes, you should be sorry, because it was all because of you.”

“I’m really sorry.” Lu Li said, “But I can’t return your lover to you, because I can’t control a man’s heart.”

Wen Ning looked deeply at him but he moved his eyes away and looked around the hall. He then looked back at Wen Ning. “What’s your mission today?”

“Yes, my mission today is very tough, so do please help me accomplish this mission, Mr. Lu.” Wen Ning said and took his arm. “Help me accomplish this mission to make up for the mistake that you made of making me lose the man I loved the most.”

Lu Li clenched his hands. It had been quite a while before he nodded. “Okay, but Inspector Wen, this is the first time, and also the last time. Then I hope we don’t contact each other again. Even if we meet later, please pretend not to know me.”

Wen Ning smiled and looked up at Lu Li. “That depends on whether Mr. Lu can finish the task today.”

Lu Li frowned, and at this time several people walked up to them. A middle-aged man among them scowled at them. Wen Ning raised her eyebrows when she saw him. “See? That man is the target of my mission. My mission is finished once this man is dealt with, but if that man can’t be dealt with, then I’m sorry that I can’t grant your requirement, Mr. Lu.”

Lu Li looked at the middle-aged man that was followed by a young man, two middle-aged women and another middle-aged man, frowned and said in a low voice, “I wonder when Interpol begin to pick on innocent people?”

Wen Ning raised her eyebrows and didn’t speak. She raised her chin with a smile, looked at the people walking to her, and suddenly held Lu Li’s arm as if claiming her ownership of him. Lu Li frowned, looked at the woman who was holding his arm tightly, and coldly said, “How can I sort out that man if you hold my arm like this?”

“Sort out?” Wen Ning looked up at Lu Li and raised her eyebrows. “Did you really understand my requirements?”

Lu Li was about to speak, when he heard the middle-aged man shouted angrily. “Wen Ning! I asked you to attend this dinner party, but I didn’t ask you to do it with a man!”

Wen Ning smiled, looked back at the angry middle-aged man, purposely leaned against Lu Li’s body and said cutely, “Dad, can’t I bring my boyfriend to this dinner party?”

Seeing this, the middle-aged man and the middle-aged woman behind the middle-aged man scowled and looked at the man who was talking. “Wen, what’s going on here?”
