Luo Xiaoqian was no match for this enchanting man; she hadn’t even realized that this was his doing, yet she naturally started praising Leng Zimo’s virtues.
"Oh—really—"
A few people asked, drawing out their words.
"Yes, it is."
"But I feel like Brother Zimo doesn’t seem at all like someone who understands romance," Huangfu Ruo said, barely suppressing her laughter.
"Try this."
Leng Zimo calmly placed a piece of food onto Luo Xiaoqian’s plate.
Luo Xiaoqian smiled at him and reached out with her chopsticks to take the food.
Around them, the audience who had been gearing up for the juicy details, all cast looks of disdain his way, clearly disappointed.
Leng Zimo’s gaze shifted from Luo Xiaoqian; when it came to others, it turned sharp, and finally it landed on Leng Zirui’s face like a knife.
His eyes made it clear—if anyone dared to tease his woman again, the consequences would be dire.
"Let’s eat, let’s eat!" Leng Zirui wisely changed the subject, "I’m starving after just flying back from Sichuan."
"How was the disaster there?" Luo Xiaoqian asked, lifting her face with concern.
Leng Zirui’s tone became serious, "The casualties are minimal, and the situation is largely under control now. The rebuilding work has been taken over by our partner units."
And so, the conversation naturally shifted to the recent disaster situation in Sichuan.
Xu Pei gently swirled her glass, listening to the conversation around the table, unusually quiet and not interrupting.
Shen Yizhou’s face showed an exaggerated look of surprise, "No way, this is truly unprecedented! Must listen, must listen! How about we choose some songs? I pick ’A Little Tempted’?"
"That’s so lame!" Tong Ya gave him a look,"I pick ’Embrace Deeply’!"
"Good one!" Huangfu Ruo immediately endorsed it.
"If that’s the case, then I’ll pick ’Today You Will Marry Me’!" Leng Zirui said teasingly, tilting his chin toward the others, "What do you think?"
"Great, great!" Huangfu Ruo clapped and cheered, then turned to look at her older brother Huangfu Ao, "Bro, what will you choose?"
Huangfu Ao rose from his chair, thought for a moment, then said, "Well, by that logic, I can only choose ’Husband and Wife Return Home Together’."
Huangfu Ao was acknowledged among them to be even more serious than Leng Zimo, and no one expected him to come out with such a remark. Everyone suddenly burst into laughter, even Leng Zirui bent over with laughter, nearly collapsing on the table, "Huangfu bro, right now... I... I officially decide... to pass my title of the ultimate charmer to you... ha..."
