The man was wearing a light blue s.h.i.+rt and a pair of slim fit khakis. It wasn’t formal wear but semi-casual. He didn’t look as serious as he normally would but rather clean and beautiful.

He was surrounded by industry seniors and everyone was talking to him delightedly. He listened attentively and replied occasionally. In Ning Qing’s eyes, she saw half of his face. A handsome sculpted face with significant sideburns…

Strangely attractive.

His broad shoulders and small waist gave his semi-casual fas.h.i.+on a charming appeal. He had one of his hands in his pocket. His elegant yet composed manner of speech reflected his honorable ident.i.ty. The dim lighting of the lanterns shone and he caught her attention.

“Miss…” Then, Zhu Rui caught up to her from the hotel. His voice woke Ning Qing with a start, as well as the people by the cars.

Then, Ning Qing’s eyes met the pair of bright and clear eyes. Lu Shaoming looked at her, she couldn’t tell if he was happy or angry from his eyes.

However, Ning Qing could clearly see that he measured her up and down while the seniors around him looked shocked. They revealed sympathy in their gazes.

Ning Qing didn’t know what was wrong with her. The exit was right behind them after the stairs but she suddenly had no strength to walk.

She quickly turned around and jumped off by the side of the stairs. She took a smaller route. There was this one small route in between the hotel wall and the fountain that was so narrow that it could only fit one person.

There wouldn’t be any guests who use that route. It was probably for the waitresses and other staff.

However, she didn’t care. She merely wanted to leave the place as soon as possible. She didn’t want to show herself in a fix before the man who once comforted her gently in the hotel room, the man who parked his car below her dorm a few days ago to send her medicine.

She knew how in a mess she looked.

Those people in the business circle were sharp, especially him. He could probably guess what happened to her with one glance. She wanted to retain some dignity.
