Chapter 13
Cocktail Party I finally found a job, an order taker for a logistics company, although the salary was not high, but it was enough, I didn’t tell Zain about this, the logistics company’s working hours are divided into two shifts, the day shift and the evening shift, the evening shift is until two o’clock in the evening, when I negotiated with them, I said that I couldn’t work the evening shift, if I could accept it, I would work.
I don’t know why their boss agreed to it, but I did need a job, and if I kept grinding like this, I was going to have to drink from the northwest.
After playing a day’s list, and those colleagues also get along well, all of them are kinder to me, some do not understand the first question, basically will teach me.
When I got off work at six o’clock, I took the bus to the station and walked another two hundred meters to get back to my apartment, and when I walked in, I was shocked by Zain sitting in the hall.
It was a little dark in the autumn night, and he didn’t turn on the light, as if he just liked the darkness, and like his people, he didn’t smile very often and depended on his words.
I turned on the light, glanced at him, put my bag down, flat shoes off and put away, and asked, “What’s the matter, all silent?”
“Where did it go?” Zain questioned a bit angrily.
“Didn’t go anywhere.” I looked at him and answered seriously, I knew he wanted me to stay in the apartment all the time and then he would be able to see me every time he came over.
Zain got up from his chair and came forward, that forced feeling pressing against me, and I took a step back and asked, “What the hell is wrong with you?”
“I waited for you for an hour.” Zain Yi said feeling aggrieved, it’s only an hour, it’s not like I did it on purpose, I have to work, I have to support myself, I can’t wait for him twenty-four hours a day!
Naturally, I wouldn’t say these words to his face, and looking at him like that, I softened first and said, “Well, when I ask you out on a date in the future, you can be two hours late and double my punishment, okay?”
“So sweet-mouthed?” Zain Yi’s fingers lightly traced my nose, and I tilted my head slightly to look at him, smiling shallowly.
“I’ve always had such a sweet mouth, and you just knew it?” As soon as I spoke, I immediately noticed that his eyes were off.
“You won’t know if it’s sweet until you taste it.” As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he kssed me, scked hard, then slowly let go, then lamented, “Mmm, nice, it tastes sweet.”
I gave him a blank stare, but he had this humorous side too.
“Cynthi, go put your dress on, I want to take you out.” Zain Yi said at me pointing to a beautiful gift box on the table, I looked at it and looked back at him puzzled.
“Where are you taking me?”
“I’d like to bring you to the twentieth anniversary reception of the Rouf Group of Companies.” As soon as Zain Yi’s words fell, my face sank, I shook my head and said back, “No go.”
“Afraid of seeing Loius Lu?” Zain Yi questioned.
Zain Yi was right, I’ve been away from Loius Lu for so many days, I’ve slowly removed him from my heart, the wounds are almost recovered, why would I want to go to a cocktail party and meet with him again.
“No.” I denied, not afraid, I didn’t want to.
“You’re my date, I’m going to make you the brightest woman at the cocktail party.” Zain Yi looked at me confidently after his exaggerated statement, raising his lips in that evil smile of his.
I quietly met his gaze, not knowing how to reject him.
Zain Yi took my hand and picked up the dress from the table, and I was dragged away, down the stairs and into his car. He took me to put on my makeup and even had the diamond necklace ready for me.
I was beautifully dressed in his bright and glamorous outfit, and for the first time in three years, I was dressed so ladylike and fashionable.
Looking at myself in the mirror in a high-waisted light purple fishtail skirt with a waistline that softly outlined my figure, my long, thick hair hanging slightly down my sides, my fair skin and delicate features, I looked even more energetic.
I had to admit that I was still able to look this radiant.
I was dazed as a pair of large hands reached through the sides of my waist, slowly reaching out in front and around my stomach, clasping my hands together and holding me, Zain’s lips gently nudging my shoulders before looking at him and me in the floor-to-ceiling mirror.
“That’s beautiful.” Zain complimented in a shallow voice.
I faintly looked at him in the mirror and smiled, women do need a man to praise them, Zain Yi understands women very well.
Chapter 14
After walking down the long red carpet, around the archway built with flowers, and then through the garden-like backyard, we arrived at the hall of the Rouf family’s huge villa, which was quite luxuriously decorated and already bustling with activity.
Zain Yi and I arrived relatively late, and as soon as we appeared, we instantly attracted everyone’s attention, and I could feel the love passing from the eyes of those unmarried women at the reception, I pursed my lips and smiled faintly, quietly leaning into Zain Yi’s ear and saying jokingly, “Your peach blossoms are quite prosperous tonight.”
“Always so prosperous.” He looks sideways and smiles confidently at me.
That’s right, Zain Yi is full of charm all over his body, until this moment, I even feel like I’m living in a dream, such a wonderful man, will he always belong to me?
I’ve actually thought about the answer, I can’t even conquer a man like Loius Lu, let alone Zain Yi, who is hundreds of times better than Loius Lu.
And I also saw him in a large crowd.
Loius Lu brought Diana Lian to the cocktail party, Diana Lian’s belly seemed to be bigger than the last time I saw her, and the light pink puffy dress she wore made her look even rounder.
She wasn’t very tall and smiled happily at me, snuggling happily into Loius Lu’s arm.
I was in a complicated mood, not because I wasn’t happy, but I felt like I really shouldn’t have come to a reception like this, it was too embarrassing, and I wouldn’t know how to explain it if any acquaintances saw me and asked more questions.
Zain Yi’s large hand suddenly covered mine, I froze, drifted back to my senses and looked at him puzzled, only to see him tilt his head towards me and whisper, “What you should let go of, you must let go of.”
“Am I the kind of woman who can’t put it down?” I pursed my lips, keeping my beautiful and touching smile all the time, and answered softly. What am I, Cynthia Mo, noble and cold, with a bad background, but my temperament is completely as good as anyone else’s.
“That’s good.” He stopped and took a glass of red wine in the waiter’s tray and handed it to me, I didn’t take it and shook my head, “I don’t want to drink.”
“Fine.” Zain himself, holding a tall glass, gently shook the red wine, took a small sip, and was just about to speak to me when an acquaintance walked up to me.
“Zain, coming over so late, you’re going to have to pay for three glasses of wine.” A middle-aged man with a slightly balding brain and a friendly smile walked over to Zain Yi, followed by a young and beautiful woman.
“Uncle Rouf is really good at joking, today’s protagonist is your Rouf family, not me, Zain.” Zain Yi did a pretty good job at this kind of business courtesy.
I stood quietly at the side and thought to myself, this should be the biggest boss of the Rouf family, and the girl behind him should be his daughter.
“Qi’er, haven’t you been looking for Zain tonight, and now that you’re here, why don’t you come over and make a toast?” Rouf Kun raised his eyebrows to remind Qiana Rouf who was behind him.
Qiana Rouf elegantly stepped forward and smiled charmingly at Zain Yi, the tall glass took the initiative to pass it over, and after the collision, she said sweetly, “Brother Zain, it’s been a long time, you’re getting more and more handsome.”
Zain smiled faintly at Qiana Rouf, “Overpraise. “As soon as the words died down, Qiana Rouf’s eyes suddenly turned to me, her eyes suspiciously looked at my hand on Zain Yi’s wrist and asked, “Who is this lady?”
“My girlfriend.” Zain Yi’s introduction not only shocked Qiana Rouf, I could obviously feel the loss in her eyes, but at the same time his answer shocked me as well.
In fact, he could have replied, I’m his date just fine. I’m not the kind of woman who sleeps with me and has to make a man responsible for me, and I’m not going to cry and beg a man not to leave me. I’ve never understood only one truth, begging for love is not long-lasting and unhappy.
Once Rouf Kun heard the introduction, his eyes looked me up and down in a strange way and asked, “This lady looks familiar. Have you met her somewhere before?”
I smiled politely at Rouf Kun and was about to reply when I heard Loius Lu’s voice come out.
“Her name is Cynthia Mo, she used to be a model, and she’s also my… “Loius Lu led Diana Lian forward, looked at me, raised his eyebrows, smiled sarcastically, and continued, “Also my ex-wife.”
As soon as the words fell, the original harmonious picture froze.
I glared at Loius Lu angrily, I knew that he said these words on purpose to irritate Zain Yi, the implication was that the broken shoe he didn’t want was picked up by Zain Yi.
I endured the aggravation and gritted my teeth, if it wasn’t for this special occasion, I would have had to slap him.
