Chapter 45

Ding Yuan said: “Don’t bother. I’ll just take a taxi back myself.”

Su Yuli looked at Ding Yuan’s pale face and said, “I’m afraid you’ll faint on the road.”

Ding Yuan laughed: “How can I be so delicate …”

Seeing Su Yuli’s serious face, who was obviously not joking, Ding Yuan stopped.

Su Yuli called Yang Shuo, and explained the situation in a few simple words. He told him that he’d owe him one so he’d invite him to get some French food another day.

Putting down the phone, Su Yuli said, “Brother Shuo may be late, so let me get a room for you to rest in.”

Ding Yuan cried out helplessly, “Xiao Jin, I really don’t know how to repay you if you do this again.”

“You don’t have to repay me. We’re friends, of course I hope you’re well.”

Ding Yuan didn’t say anything. He just looked at him with those black and pure eyes. Su Yuli was defeated: “Okay, then I won’t book a room. You go and change your clothes and sit here for a while.”

Ding Yuan nodded.

Su Yuli said: “Then I won’t accompany you. Brother Shuo will come later. Call me.”

Ding Yuan’s heart warmed and he nodded again: “Okay, you can go back quickly, don’t let President Lin wait.”

When Su Yuli  returned to the banquet hall, Mu Lang had arrived and was talking to Lin Suiyan.

Unsurprisingly, Mu Lang had another female partner. Su Yuli complained to himself that his private life was really messy, and he didn’t know whether to take safety measures or not.

Su Yuli quickly adjusted his facial expression and walked over with a glass of wine. He took the initiative to say hello: “Senior Mu, you’re a little late today.”

Mu Lang’s eyes stung when he saw Su Yuli appear- he didn’t know if he really liked Su Yuli, or if he pretended to be pleasantly surprised and affectionate.

Of course, Su Yuli was sure it was definitely the latter.

The people around him, if nothing else, were great actors.   

Mu Lang and Su Yuli lightly clinked their glasses together. And he said with a smile, “I was just thinking, that you’ve always been so inseparable from Suiyan so how come I hadn’t seen you yet? What were you doing?”

Thinking about Grandma Ding and Ding Yuan’s dislike of Mu Lang, Su Yuli didn’t talk about Ding Yuan, and just made up an excuse to fool him.

Mu Lang chatted with Su Yuli a bit, then his attention turned to Lin Suiyan. He really mentioned the cooperation project. Lin Suiyan didn’t directly refuse, and said that he would consider it.

Mu Lang didn’t dwell on this topic, and moved on to other things.

Soon, the guests arrived, and the banquet officially began.

Soothing and pleasant music was playing in the banquet hall, and soon it turned into cheerful dance music. The men and women all dressed up joined hands and began to dance on the dance floor.

After attending so many receptions, Su Yuli has not danced with Lin Suiyan yet. Now that he has a chance, of course Su Yuli wants to try it. He dragged Lin Suiyan off to the dance floor.

There was a lot of laughter all around, and it seemed that everyone who came to the reception was in a good mood

Su Yuli was infected by the atmosphere, and the smile on his face never disappeared. He chatted with Lin Suiyan, and soon it was time to change partners.

In this world, same-sex marriage has already been accepted, so no one would look strangely at people dancing with the same sex.

And it’s a social ritual, the same as anyone.

Su Yuli originally thought so, but after exchanging dance partners, before he’d hooked up with a new dance partner, Mu Lang had appeared from nowhere and grabbed his hand.

Su Yuli felt that his finger had been licked by a poisonous snake, and he wanted to swallow what he had just thought.

In such a situation, you can’t just throw your hands away and leave. Su Yuli took a deep breath and controlled the urge to hit someone. How come Mu Lang was everywhere?

It’s really haunting.

Mu Lang looked down at Su Yuli: “Junior seems very surprised to see me.”

Su Yuli tried his best to squeeze out a fake smile: “Yes, I didn’t even see you just now. Senior appeared so suddenly that he startled me.”

Mu Lang said, “It’s that your attention has always been on Suiyan and you can’t see anyone else.”

This statement was sour, and it also has a layer of other meanings.

Su Yuli wasn’t an idiot, how could he not understand what he meant?

However, Su Yuli’s heart didn’t fluctuate at all. He already had someone who would stay with him for the rest of his life. He didn’t want to have anything to do with Mu Lang, a scumbag who changed his bed partners as often as he changed his clothes

Su Yuli looked at his hand that Mu Lang was holding and thought silently in his heart, when this dance was over, he will wash his hands.

Mu Lang didn’t know what Su Yuli was thinking. He was in a suit and leather shoes with his hair meticulously combed back. He smiled, displaying the charm of an adult man.

Unfortunately, Su Yuli was like a blind man and couldn’t see it at all.

Su Yuli was counting the seconds and waiting for the music to end. Might as well coldly listen to Mu Lang talk: “Speaking of Suiyan, when he was in high school the school held a dance. Many little girls eagerly watched him, wanting to be his partner, and some even fought. That scene was really lively.”

The story of Lin Suiyan’s youth.

Su Yuli moved his ears and finally turned his gaze to Mu Lang.

Mu Lang’s lips twitched, revealing a faint smile, just like an experienced hunter who saw his prey jump into the trap he arranged.

Su Yuli didn’t realize it. He had been here for a while. Although he was with Lin Suiyan all day long, the two rarely talked about the past.

Although Mu Lang hated this person, he has known Lin Suiyan since he was a child, and he must know a lot about Lin Suiyan.

How can anyone not want to know their lover’s past.

Su Yuli urged: “And then? Who did Suiyan end up dancing with at that ball? He didn’t dance with the girl who won the fight, right?”

Mu Lang smiled and said, “Suiyan left that dance.”

Su Yuli blinked, a bright smile appeared on his face, and he said in his heart that he was indeed the man I liked, and he did a beautiful job.

He turned his head to look for Lin Suiyan, but found that after only exchanging these few words, Lin Suiyan had disappeared.

Where was he?

Su Yuli looked around and his eyes suddenly narrowed. He saw Luo Xing not far away pressing his temple with one hand. His brows were furrowed, obviously unwell, and Lin Suiyan was beside him.

Su Yuli thought to himself, as expected, Luo Xing was really uneasy at this reception. He said something to Mu Lang and was about to go over, but Mu Lang held him tightly.

Su Yuli looked at Mu Lang holding his hand. Mu Lang said: “Senior Luo and Suiyan have been old friends for many years. Now that the senior has had too much to drink, Suiyan takes care of him. Why are you so nervous?”

Su Yuli thought to himself that Lin Suiyan now takes Luo Xing as a friend, but unfortunately Luo Xing doesn’t want to be Lin Suiyan’s friend, he wants to be Mrs. Lin!

Mu Lang observed the expression on Su Yuli’s face and said, “Junior seems to have a lot of hostility towards Senior Luo.”

Su Yuli said briefly, “Luo Xing’s eyes are not right when he looks at Suiyan.”

After saying this, he glanced at Mu Lang, “When you have someone you really like in the future, you will understand this feeling.”

There was a sting in his words, mocking Mu Lang for not understanding love, but he still looked affectionate.

Whether Mu Lang failed to understand him or was just pretending not to, he laughed and said, “Xiao Jin is really sharp. Then you can see Luo Xing’s thoughts about Suiyan, can you understand my intentions for you?”

Su Yuli took a step back; he didn’t expect Mu Lang to clarify this matter so directly.
