In the middle was a huge lotus pond, with buds blooming and a faint scent of lotus lingering,

On each pavilion hung a gold and blue plaque, inscribed in wild cursive script with their respective names.

The servant led them up to Hanguang Pavilion, a small pavilion from which you could enjoy a 360-degree view of Jiangzhou’s neon night scene, as well as the twinkling starry river of Qujiang not far away.

In the middle was a low square table, surrounded by several meditation cushions, suggesting a time-honored kneeling position was expected.

In a celadon flower vase on the square table were a few branches of silver willows ornamented with several tulips. a blend of classical and elegant.

Off to the side was a set of tea utensils.

They arrived early, Zhu Mingjing and Shen Zhou were not here yet.

Jiao Mei wandered around the pavilion, gazing at the far-off Qujiang, she took a deep breath and remarked, “From this vantage point, the nighttime Qujiang looks like a sprawling dragon, the view is indeed remarkable.”

“And this Dechang Building, as it is known for its elegance. Seeing it today, it truly lives up to its reputation. I wonder who the owner behind it is.”

“Usually, only important figures can arrange banquets here. Without status and influence, it’s impossible to get. This Ms. Zhu is truly capable.”

Song Yinzhang chuckled, “Mother, why do you think so much, we’re just here to keep company.”

As it was still early, Jiao Mei took a seat on the meditation cushion. The servant knelt on one side skillfully washing and pouring tea.

The female servant had a slender neck and a gentle appearance, which appeared even more amiable under the lamplight. Jiao Mei pouted, thinking that the proprietor of the store was indeed good at doing business.

At the same time, at the front gate, two cars stopped simultaneously. Ming Jing got out of her car, came across Shen Zhou who had also just disembarked, both were stunned for a moment, then laughed.

“Mr. Shen.” Ming Jing walked up to him, she was wearing a bamboo green long dress, light and soft, just like the clear spring in summer, purifying the night.

Shen Zhou was momentarily stunned as he regarded the girl approaching, quickly recovered, and chuckled self-deprecatingly, “Ms. Zhu, I hope I didn’t miscalculate the time.”

At this time, Shen Ke and Zhao Heng got down from the other side. When Zhao Heng saw Ming Jing, his eyes lit up, and a smile secretly curled at the corner of his mouth.

Indeed, insisting on accompanying his uncle was the right decision.contemporary romance

“Everyone knows Mr. Shen is punctual, on the contrary, it’s me who has been impolite. ”

“Ms. Zhu, don’t be too formal, let’s consider this just a casual meal,” Shen Zhou said in a straightforward manner.

The female servant came out to greet them. Seeing Shen Zhou, she paused, then quickly adopted an even more respectful manner to welcome him.

The four followed the servant inside. This was Ming Jing’s first visit to Dechang Building, and she admired the scenery in the night.

As their cars were just being parked by staff members, two other cars simultaneously pulled up.

“Mr. Fu, long time no see, you’ve become much more spirited.” “Not at all. It’s the presence of Ms. Zhu that truly perks people up.”

Zhu Wentao had Zhou Ling on his arm, looking like a perfect couple.

Across from them, Fu Nansheng, who was in his forties, had an arm around a woman with snowy-white arms, equally a charming beauty.

After trading pleasantries upon meeting, they followed the servant inside.

Past the shadow wall, in the lamplit distance, indistinct figures seemed to loom.

“Isn’t that Mr. Shen?” The beautiful woman next to Fu Nansheng pointed at the faint figures ahead.

This woman, who is often seen in high-end clubs, always has someone at least at the level of Fu Nansheng accompanying her. So when she spoke, Fu Nansheng understood instantly.

“Is it really Mr. Shen? I didn’t hear that he had social engagements at Dechang Building tonight?”

Upon hearing Shen Zhou’s name, Zhu Wentao’s heart raised.

The beautiful woman, named Lu Mi, laughed, “It seems to be a private gathering. Maybe it’s some friends of Mr. Shen.”

Mr. Shen’s friends would certainly not be ordinary people.

I help ligules were indistinct, but a woman was walking shoulder to shoulder with Shen Zhou. As they turned a corner, the woman’s profile was directly facing their direction.

Zhu Wentao paused. Why did the woman seem somehow familiar?

Was he seeing things?

Fu Nansheng laughed, “I heard Mr. Shen is indifferent to women. I wonder if the woman companion by his side is going to break that rumor?”

Lu Mi covered her mouth and giggled, “Mr. Shen is a normal man. Having desires is normal. But it’s a wonder who that lucky one is.”

Fu Nansheng’s eyes flickered, “Let’s take this opportunity to greet Mr. Shen.”

Zhu Wentao had the same idea. This offered an excellent opportunity that should not be missed.

Zhou Ling murmured softly, “Approaching so recklessly might not be good.”

Zhu Wentao had finally seized an opportunity and he couldn’t possibly let it go.

He ignored Zhou Ling..
