Surprise! I'm pregnant with a rich heir
Chapter 80 Lying doesn't suit you
At 8pm, on the rooftop of the Doug Hotel
In the banquet hall, exquisite crystal chandeliers and intricate golden floral decorations complement each other. Champagne glasses are stacked up half the height of the banquet hall, and the overflowing bubbles reflect beautiful colors. The simple and gorgeous carpets on the floor and the exquisite dishes on the carefully arranged tables all around all show the luxury of the celebration banquet, not to mention the many entertainment facilities next door, such as archery, snooker, etc.
A group of people were full of praise for the fine wine and delicious food here. They usually don’t have the opportunity to come to such a place, so when they come, they naturally have to appreciate and taste it.
But Zhang Hui was not included. She was usually the most active, but today she seemed a little bored. She took a sip of wine absentmindedly, with a look of loneliness between her eyebrows. Lu Xing took a seat with a glass of wine, "What's wrong? All these delicacies can't attract you?"
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Zhang Hui said self-deprecatingly.
Lu Xing laughed, "It's quite stupid"
"Lu Xing!" Zhang Hui glared at him angrily.
"Well, now that we've missed this opportunity today, we don't know when the next time will be. Are you sure you don't want to go eat something?" Lu Xing obviously knew Zhang Hui very well.
"Do you also know that Shen Lanxi likes the president?" Zhang Hui looked at Lu Xing steadily.
Lu Xing curled his lips and attacked him with all his might: "I know. You are the only one in the company who can't see it."
Zhang Hui also felt that she was quite stupid. She didn't notice the way Shen Lanxi looked at the president, the ugly expression on Ruan Yin's face when she came to the company, and the emphasis she made in her words on the president's unmarried status.
She didn't mind that Shen Lanxi liked the president, but she minded that she used her to achieve her goals. Besides, Ruan Yin was really a good person.
At this time, Ruan Yin was having a great time wandering around the food area. Although she didn't have a share of fine wine, the food was still okay. She picked some food and sat on the swivel high chair in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. She glanced at Xi Xuanyao who was speaking in the banquet center, and then her eyes fell on the lights of thousands of homes under the tall buildings. The flickering lights enveloped the city, making the Yuncheng at night look like a dream.
Just as she was thinking about what time she should find to ask Xi Xuanyao, a voice came from above her head, "Does it look good?"
"It looks good," Ruan Yin replied subconsciously. She raised her eyes and saw Xi Xuanyao sitting next to her with a glass of wine. People around them kept glancing at the two of them out of the corner of their eyes, making people feel uneasy.
Xi Xuanyao gently shook the wine glass, took a sip, and looked straight at Ruan Yin, which made her scalp numb. She stammered, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
The eyes of the people around were all focused here, and many people were whispering.
"The relationship between the president and his wife is not as bad as the rumors say."
"Hush, keep your voice down. I heard that Yu Hua, who bossed the lady around last time, was demoted."
"It seems that I need to drink more and get along well with my wife in the future."
Some people were not convinced and muttered in a low voice: "It's just because I'm pregnant, I'm so lucky."
Xi Xuanyao glanced at the people around him coldly, then leaned closer to Ruan Yin and asked, "Are you full?"
Ruan Yin nodded blankly, always feeling that he was a little strange today.
"Now that we're full, let's go to another place, or do you want to be watched here?" Xi Xuanyao joked.
Ruan Yin glanced at the hand he extended, put her hand on it, and immediately let go after jumping off the stool. However, Xi Xuanyao held her hand tightly and she couldn't break free for a while. She was worried, what happened to this guy today?
In the stairwell, the dim light shone on her increasingly anxious face. She asked awkwardly, "Where are we going?"
"You'll know when you get there," Xi Xuanyao said with a smile on his face.
"I suddenly remembered that I left something in the banquet hall. I'll go get it." Ruan Yin turned around and wanted to escape. There was something wrong with Xi Xuanyao tonight. It made people panic. Among the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one.
Xi Xuanyao pushed Ruan Yin against the wall with his hands, and gently played with her hair. He leaned in and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Let Lu Xing get it."
The aroma of wine between his lips and teeth entered Ruan Yin's internal organs through her breath, causing her to lose consciousness for a moment. Her head was dizzy, and she was subconsciously led by Xi Xuanyao to the rooftop. It was pitch black all around, with only two lights at the door illuminating the road ahead.
Xi Xuanyao led her to the railing, looked at the lights in the distance, and said, "This is the best place to view the entire hotel. Isn't it more beautiful?"
"Yes, most people would never think of coming to the rooftop to watch the night view," Ruan Yin said with a chuckle. It turned out that she was being brought to see the night view.
When she came up just now, she noticed that there was a lock on the door, which means that it is usually locked. As for why Xi Xuanyao could open it, it was of course because the entire hotel belonged to him and there was no place he could not go.
"Tell me, what happened to you recently?" Xi Xuanyao asked Ruan Yin with his dark eyes fixed on her.
Ruan Yin's heart skipped a beat and she immediately replied, "What's wrong? You look so weird today." When they first got married, Xi Xuanyao told her not to fall in love with him. She didn't dare to think about whether she would get a more embarrassing answer after she confessed. This was also the reason why she had doubts in her heart after watching the video but didn't dare to confirm it.
In the darkness, Xi Xuanyao curled the corners of his mouth and deliberately moved closer to her, which really made Ruan Yin retreat. He put one hand behind Ruan Yin, leaving her with no way to retreat, and leaned over as if to kiss Ruan Yin, who quickly dodged.
He pushed the hair off Ruan Yin's face and behind her ears. "You wouldn't have resisted my closeness so much before. Lying doesn't suit you. If you have any problems, tell us and we can solve them together, okay?"
"Didn't you say that I shouldn't be attracted to you and that it would not end well? I'm just practicing what you said," Ruan Yin said angrily.
Xi Xuanyao said stiffly, "The past is the past, and the present is the present. Where is your courage to praise me and kiss me before?"
"I overestimated my own capabilities before, but now I face the reality. Is that not okay?" Ruan Yin asked back.
"Reality? What reality?" Xi Xuanyao grasped the key point accurately.
Ruan Yin didn't look at him. Her eyes stayed on the lights of thousands of houses in the distance. She said softly, "Look over there. The neon lights of the tall buildings are bright, right? Everyone will notice them at first glance, but there are still many places in this city that are not covered by the bright lights and feasting. They are ordinary and inconspicuous. Do you think the ornately decorated tall buildings can see those shabby neighborhoods or streets? The height difference between the two is huge, and the image is even more different."
Xi Xuanyao looked along her profile. The lights pieced together the entire night view of Yuncheng bit by bit. He said meaningfully, "The moment the lights came on, they extended and intersected infinitely, becoming a whole. It's just because you're standing at a different angle that you can't see their intersection and intimacy. During the day, they are even more equal, being places where people work or live, experiencing the changes of time together. How do you know that high-rise buildings can't see the places illuminated by them?"
Ruan Yin was speechless. She turned her head and couldn't see Xi Xuanyao's expression. The two stared at each other in the dark for a long time. In the end, Ruan Yin was the first to give in. "This is different."
"Is this the reality you are talking about?" Xi Xuanyao was speechless. If he minded, he would not have married her in the first place.
Ruan Yin carefully raised her eyes to glance at Xi Xuanyao and asked tentatively: "If I can't forget Bai Yueguang, would you mind?"
