Xia parked the car and entered the restaurant with Lin Nuan. She was led by a waitress in a cheongsam to the pavilion in the middle of the lake, where the plaque of Lingxiao Pavilion was hanging.
The dishes hadn't been served yet, and there were eight or nine people sitting around. The sponsor and the deputy director hadn't arrived yet.
Xia came over and stood up to greet her.
Xia greeted her.
Lin Nuan was surprised to see Bai Xiaonian at the table.
Bai Xiaonian saw her and said something to the person beside her. She picked up her bag and stood up to greet her.
Xia walked over.
After Xia nodded to greet her, Bai Xiaonian grabbed Lin Nuan's arm and said, "Come with me to the bathroom!"
Bai Xiaonian pulled Lin Nuan to a corner and frowned. "I heard that the sponsor specifically asked you to come over this time. There must be something wrong with the smell …"
Bai Xiaonian took out a piece of taro cake from her bag and handed it to Lin Nuan. "Eat a few bites now … and you'll have an effect after drinking a few mouthfuls of alcohol later. Then, no matter whether the sponsor makes you drink or not, I'll take you away after you drink a few mouthfuls! As long as the higher-ups think you're allergic to alcohol, you don't have to come to such events in the future. "
Knowing that Bai Xiaonian came for her, Lin Nuan's heart warmed.
Lin Nuan took the taro cake and took a bite, chewing it hastily before swallowing it.
When Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian returned to the restaurant, the deputy director and the sponsor had already arrived.
Seeing Lin Nuan return, the burly deputy director immediately stood up and waved to Lin Nuan.
"Lin Nuan, come over here and give a toast to President Tang. The biggest sponsor of your morning news program is President Tang. Without him, there would be no morning news program!"
The man sitting beside the deputy director was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. He had an unlit cigarette between his fingers as he looked in Lin Nuan's direction.
The afternoon sun was glaring, and the light refracted on the surface of the lake outlined his well-defined facial features. The light seemed to penetrate his flawless skin, which looked delicate and fair. His long and narrow peach blossom eyes, which were as dark as a serene pool, seemed to be smiling, and his thin lips, which were tightly pursed under his tall nose, looked a little wild and unruly.
There was an empty seat beside President Tang. Anyone could tell that it was Lin Nuan's seat.
Bai Xiaonian gripped Lin Nuan's hand tightly and nodded at the vice president and President Tang with a smile before finding an empty seat and sitting down.
Lin Nuan was confident, so she wasn't afraid. She walked over to the deputy director.
This was Tang Zheng's first time seeing Lin Nuan. Unlike when they were separated by a TV screen, Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian had just walked over from the bridge leading to the center of the lake. That beautiful and exquisite little face … was set off by the sparkling waves, giving off a startling feeling. Tang Zheng's heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
He sighed in his heart. No wonder Old Fu liked him.
"Lin Nuan …" The vice president passed a glass of wine to Lin Nuan and politely led her to Tang Zheng's side. "President Tang said that he gave such a huge sponsorship because of you."
Lin Nuan tightened her grip on her wine glass.
"President Tang, a toast to you." Lin Nuan's voice was neither warm nor cold, but there was resistance and stubbornness in her eyes.
The spicy and piercing alcohol entered her mouth and slid down her throat. She faintly broke out in sweat.
Unlike the others, Lin Nuan didn't reveal a friendly smile upon seeing the handsome and refined appearance of the sponsor in front of her.
