"Bai Lu …" Buck said her name twice in a playful manner. Finally, he raised his eyebrows wickedly and spat out contemptuously, "I've never heard of her before. Is she a newbie you've brought up?"
"Does the famous Buck still care about his reputation? Don't you always think that those are just fleeting clouds and undeserved fame? "Liang Feifan retorted.
Buck looked at him meaningfully. After a moment, he laughed. "You know me very well. I heard that your company has been bidding for the municipal building recently. Are you confident, Mr. Liang?"
"I never fight a battle that I'm not confident of winning."
Liang Feifan's tone was steady. As he spoke, his slender fingers fiddled with the ceramic cup beside him casually. The expression on his face was calm and elegant.
Bai Lu listened to the two men going back and forth and felt a little uneasy.
In fact, she was not considered to be part of their circle at all. Moreover, she did not understand why Liang Feifan had brought her to meet Buck tonight.
Most importantly, she could vaguely smell the scent of wormwood on Buck's body.
Wormwood had a strong fragrance and a slightly spicy taste.
Bai Lu did not dislike the smell of wormwood. She did not know why, but now she felt more and more uncomfortable, as if something was constantly stirring in her stomach …
She wanted to throw up!
However, she knew that she could not be rude in front of two men of such stature, not to mention that Buck was her idol.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Liang. I need to go to the bathroom."
Her face was a little pale. Fortunately, the lights in the private room were dim, so the two men did not seem to notice anything strange about her.
Liang Feifan did not even raise his head. He grunted in acknowledgment.
Bai Lu grabbed her handbag, nodded at Buck, and quickly walked out of the private room.
As soon as the door of the private room closed, she almost ran into the bathroom not far away …

When Buck saw that Bai Lu had left, he leaned back in his seat and flicked his fingernails. "Cheng, you know I don't like to keep people in suspense. Tell me the truth. Why did you bring this Bai Lu here today?"
Liang Feifan's expression didn't change. "I saw her modify a design today, and I feel that her design concept is very similar to yours."
Buck drawled, "Oh, so that's how it is …" His pair of green eyes stared at the calm man opposite him, obviously waiting for him to continue.
The feeling of being seen through made Liang Feifan very unhappy. Fortunately, the man in front of him was his good friend. He paused, sighed, and said, "Don't look at me with those disgusting eyes. Whatever you think in your heart is what I think. Whatever you want, just say it. "
Buck spread his hands and chuckled. "You want me to teach her? Sure, I can see that the little girl is also a feast for the eyes. You know how hard it is for me to resist beautiful things. But how are you going to repay me? "
Liang Feifan pursed his thin lips and seemed a little unnatural. However, he tried his best to suppress his emotions and didn't show it. "What do you want?"
"Mr. Liang, it's rare for you to open your mouth. If I don't ruthlessly extort you, I'll be letting myself down." Buck snapped his fingers and smiled evilly. "But who told me to be a kind person? I've always been generous to my friends. I don't ask for much. How about this? Just take down the painting in your bedroom and send it to me. "
The corners of Liang Feifan's mouth twitched. He secretly cursed this guy who pretended to be obedient after getting a bargain.
The "Heartbeat" painting in his bedroom was bought at an auction in London for 500 million yuan. He was really "generous"!
"I'll get someone to send it to your villa tomorrow."
Buck was a little surprised that Liang Feifan agreed so readily.
Was that Bai Lu worth so much money?
The two of them had just reached an agreement when there was a sudden urgent knock on the door of the private room.
Liang Feifan turned around and saw the waiter rushing in. He nodded at the two of them and said to Liang Feifan, "Sorry to disturb you, Young Master Liang. The girl you brought here just now fainted in the bathroom …"
Liang Feifan's expression changed immediately. His tall body abruptly rose from his seat and strode toward the door of the private room.
Buck was still sitting in his seat like a spineless person. He didn't seem to have any intention of getting up and following him out.
The waiter followed beside Liang Feifan and guided him. "Young Master Liang, this way please. I've already brought her to the lounge."
"What happened?" Liang Feifan's voice couldn't help but tense up. "Why did she faint?"
The waiter hurriedly told him everything he knew about the situation.
"I'm not very sure about the details. I happened to pass by the bathroom when a lady came out in a hurry. She said that someone had fainted inside, so I went in to take a look. There was indeed a girl who had fainted by the sink. Our staff carried her out. She's currently in the lounge upstairs. I remembered that you brought her here, so I came to disturb you. "
Liang Feifan waved his hand. His usually calm expression revealed a rare hint of anxiety. "Hurry up and take me there."
Bai Lu was lying on a black sofa. When Liang Feifan came closer, he realized that her face was very pale. She must have been very uncomfortable when she fainted. Her two slender eyebrows were tightly knitted, and there seemed to be some water stains at the corners of her lips.
Liang Feifan suddenly felt as though his heart was being squeezed by an invisible hand in his chest. It wasn't very strong, but it clearly made him very uncomfortable. He secretly took a deep breath, then went forward and carried her from the sofa without any explanation.
The hotel manager heard the news and hurried over. When he saw Liang Feifan carrying an unconscious woman and leaving, he hurriedly stepped forward, "Liang … Young Master Liang, I'm really sorry. I just found out … I don't know how this young lady is?"
After all, she had fainted in their hotel. If there was food poisoning or something like that, the hotel probably wouldn't be able to operate.
Liang Feifan glanced at the manager expressionlessly, but his tone was a little cold. "We'll only know the reason for her fainting after she goes to the hospital for a checkup. But I think you should pray to God now. It better not be because of your hotel."
After he finished speaking, he didn't waste any more time. He strode out of the room with Bai Lu in his arms.
The manager stood there with cold sweat on his forehead. After thinking about it, he hurriedly ordered the waiters standing beside him. "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and go to the kitchen to see if there's anything wrong with the dishes that were served to Young Master Liang's private room. Every dish has to be carefully checked. Don't miss anything! Including the wine. Hurry up! "
***
In a daze, Bai Lu felt like she was being carried by someone. She felt a little dizzy. Perhaps it was because the night wind had blown her out of the hotel, but she slowly regained consciousness.
"… Go to the hospital!"
She vaguely heard a deep and powerful male voice. It was very familiar, but there seemed to be some strange emotions in it.
This voice sounded like Liang Feifan's.
Go to the hospital? Go to the hospital for what?
She instinctively moved her limbs, but before she could open her eyes, the familiar voice seemed to become clearer. This time, she could hear it clearly.
"How are you? Are you awake? "
Bai Lu slowly opened her eyes. In front of her was a magnified handsome face. Those deep eyes were very close, and there seemed to be countless flowing lights in the depths of those eyes. Those lights seemed to carry a bit of worry. Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Her heart instantly started beating wildly.
"Mr. Liang — Ah!"
She probably didn't realize that she was in his arms. When she suddenly opened her eyes, she saw Liang Feifan so close to her. The tip of her nose was filled with his masculine scent. She was obviously flustered. She instinctively struggled, but she didn't expect her face to bump into his.
Her wet and warm lips unconsciously brushed against his cheek.
Boom!
It was as if something had suddenly exploded on top of her head. Bai Lu's mind went blank. It was as if her acupuncture points had been pressed. She maintained a stiff posture. Only her hands were covering her lips. Only a pair of watery eyes could be seen on her palm-sized hibiscus face.
The depths of those watery eyes were filled with shock … and annoyance. There was even a hint of shyness.
God, what did she just do?
Did she … Did she kiss his face?
All the dizziness disappeared, and all her consciousness returned at this moment. Bai Lu only felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat. Especially when she saw Liang Feifan's handsome face, she felt that her sin was unforgivable.
Would he think that she did it on purpose?
Would he think that she was the kind of secretary who had big breasts but no brains, who wanted to seduce her boss all day long so that she could get to the top?
The bad feeling grew stronger. Bai Lu immediately closed her eyes tightly and covered her mouth. Her voice was a little muffled. "… I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Mr. Liang. I didn't do it on purpose … I … I was too nervous just now. Ah, no, I didn't know it would be like this … I'm sorry …"
In order to prove that her thoughts were really pure, she quickly added, "Mr. Liang, I swear, I have absolutely no improper thoughts about you!"
Liang Feifan's handsome and gloomy face was originally slightly gloomy. When he heard Bai Lu's last sentence, his entire face darkened.
Absolutely no improper thoughts?
Liang Feifan's eyes gradually darkened. It had always been women who flocked to his favor, but it was the first time that he had been called worthless in front of a lowly secretary.
The cheek that had been touched by her soft lips still seemed to have a trace of her remaining warmth. Liang Feifan's mind flashed once again. That time when she was drunk, her lips had come up to his face ….
There seemed to be some restless factor stirring in his body. He had always been a person who would not bat an eyelid even if Mount Tai collapsed, but this time, he was affected by his emotions.
He looked down at the woman who was still in his arms. She had a panicked look on her face, like a child who had made a mistake and was waiting to be judged.
Liang Feifan only felt an indescribable feeling surge in his heart. It was as if a soft strand of hair had brushed against the tip of his heart, making it itchy and unbearable.
"You just fainted. Don't you know? I'll ask the driver to take you to the hospital now. "He calmed himself down and said expressionlessly.
