Chapter 760: Lu Yunxiao’s Blind Date Banquet

Not long after the four of them sat down, Ian came walking over.

“Hi ladies, good evening.”

Ian gave them a gentlemanly bow.

Dou Yurui looked at Ian and bumped Dou Xiangling with her elbow. “Fourth Sister, I guess Ian is here to look for you?”

Dou Xiangling blushed and said, “Don’t talk nonsense.”

“Pft…” Dou Yurui whispered to her, “Compared to that one from before, I feel that this one is much better. The previous one looked like a terrapin and this one looks like a golden turtle.”

Dou Xiangling pulled her clothes and told her to stop talking. At the same time, she glanced at Ian and she just so happened to make eye contact with Ian’s gentle eyes. She felt even more embarrassed.

Was it really appropriate to make such comments in front of the person involved?

Just then, a piano melody sounded from the living room.

Everyone’s gaze shifted in that direction.

Dou Yurui listened for a short while and asked Zi Yi, “Yiyi, you all even invited a pianist for tonight?”

“We didn’t.” Zi Yi looked at the lady who was currently playing the piano and said, “Mom would occasionally play the piano and so, there is one placed in the living room.”

The young lady who was currently playing the piano was wearing a mint-blue colored, half-backless, evening dress. The dress was exposed in quite a few places and there was a big ribbon in front of the V shape near her chest. It just so happened to cover some of her exposed skin and made her seem more elegant and not as frivolous.

Looking at her back view, she looked particularly elegant and her skin was also rather fair, and she was very enticing.

“She must be trying to attract Lu Yunxiao’s attention.”

The moment Dou Yurui made that comment, Dou Yue’er looked around.

“Eh? Where is Third Brother Lu?”

Zi Yi and the others looked around and did not manage to see him.

Zi Yi guessed. “He might have gone outside.”

Zi Yi’s guess was correct. Lu Yunxiao was really outside at this very moment.

Even though Mrs. Lu had personally given orders, he really wasn’t fond of such events. In particular, getting surrounded by a group of women.

However, just as he was standing at a remote corner, the housekeeper and two helpers appeared.

“Third Young Master, the Madam has given us instructions. You must entertain the guests in the living room tonight.”

Lu Yunxiao looked at the three of them expressionlessly.

The housekeeper was still alright, but the two helpers were soon unable to bear the pressure Lu Yunxiao radiated and they shrunk their necks.

The housekeeper sighed deep down and did not give him the room for negotiation. “The Madam said that if you do not go in, she will personally come out to look for you herself.”

Lu Yunxiao looked away expressionlessly and turned to head into the living room.

As soon as he came in through the side door, he was stopped by a woman.

“Third Brother Lu.” The woman’s voice was overly sweet and Lu Yunxiao’s expressionless face intensified.

The woman was clearly a little timid, but she still summoned up her courage and said, “Third Brother Lu, I’m Xu Qingya. Can I invite you to a dance?”

After the piano melody sounded in the living room, there were some people who vacated a spot for dancing.

Lu Yunxiao expressionlessly said, “I can’t dance.”

His rejection was so blunt and coupled with his imposing manner, the woman’s complexion turned pale.

Lu Yunxiao bypassed her and continued to make his way inside.

He did not head over to where Mrs. Lu was. Instead, he went to a corner where there was a sofa and sat down.

His seating posture was very domineering and coupled with the aura he radiated, the air around him seemed to have dropped several degrees.

However, quite a few middle-aged women got excited and hastily urged their daughters or nieces to present themselves in front of Lu Yunxiao.

Before those ladies could make their way over, an unfamiliar woman walked over to Lu Yunxiao.

“Instructor Lu, can I sit next to you?”

Lu Yunxiao looked up at the woman who was dressed differently compared to the other ladies and remained expressionless.

Nangong Yun was used to wearing trousers and she came here tonight while wearing pants. She revealed a slight smile when she noticed Lu Yunxiao glancing at her. She then sat in front of him and openly said, “I went to [Future Gallery] today and you might not have noticed me, as you were busy.”

Lu Yunxiao knew Nangong Yun and he nodded at her.

Nangong Yun’s smile deepened and she said, “The skills Instructor Lu taught to us in school are much more applicable than those taught by our instructors. We all hope that you can come again and teach us more skills.”

Lu Yunxiao kept his gaze forward and said, “Sorry, I don’t have time.”

“Why should you apologize? It’s normal that you don’t have time because of how busy you are.”

Lu Yunxiao’s gaze was now on her face.

The tip of her ears were slightly red. She pushed her scattered hair behind her ears and said, “I’ll be graduating soon and perhaps I might get to work together with Instructor Lu in the future.”

“Uhm.”

“I hope to work together with Instructor Lu. In that case, I’ll be able to learn a lot of skills from you.”

Lu Yunxiao did not answer her.

Nangong Yun was not disappointed either and wanted to continue talking. Just then, a sickly sweet voice sounded from the side. “Third Brother Lu, there you are.”

Lu Yunxiao did not have much of a reaction. Nangong Yun, however, turned around and looked in her direction.

The one who came over was a lady in exquisite makeup and she wore a luxury dress with limited edition jewelry hanging around her neck and wrists. From a glance, she looked like a young lady from the eight aristocratic families.

Tang Weiyang came over to Lu Yunxiao with a glass of red wine in her hand and acted coyly. “Third Brother Lu, do you still remember me? We used to go to the same junior high school. You attended the school with your brother and there was once when I mistook the both of you.”

Lu Yunxiao looked at her expressionlessly.

The moment Tang Weiyang met his gaze, her heart started thumping. However, at the thought of her objective tonight, she smiled and wanted to take a seat next to him.

How could Nangong Yun sitting in front of Lu Yunxiao possibly allow Tang Weiyang to sit next to Lu Yunxiao? She suddenly suggested. “Instructor Lu, I heard that Auntie Lu had planted roses in the backyard. I haven’t had a chance to see a large field of roses, can you show me the way?”

Tang Weiyang looked at Nangong Yun in contempt. Did this woman think she didn’t know what she was trying to do?

Looking at the difference in their clothes, she suddenly had an idea. If she said she was cold when they went outside, would Third Brother Lu take off his jacket and lend it to her?

At the thought of that, Tang Weiyang also agreed. “I also want to see Auntie Lu’s rose garden. Third Brother Lu, can you take me to see it too?”

Lu Yunxiao looked at the two ladies and kindly said, “It’s cold outside.”

“I’m not afraid of the cold.”

“I’m not afraid of the cold.”

The two ladies spoke in unison.

Lu Yunxiao took their words seriously and stood up.

Looking at Lu Yunxiao heading out with two ladies, a few other ladies followed him outside.

The moment they came outside, the sharp wind blew and Tang Weiyang directly grabbed his arm as she said in a trembling voice, “Thi-third Brother. I’m so cold.”

Lu Yunxiao looked at her expressionlessly.

Tang Weiyang felt even colder than before.

Lu Yunxiao said straightforwardly, “Go in if you’re cold.”

He continued walking after that.

Nangong Yun walked over to Tang Weiyang’s side and suddenly smiled before she followed Lu Yunxiao.

How could Tang Weiyang pass on such a good opportunity to Nangong Yun? She gritted her teeth and followed them.
