Chapter 358 - 358 226 Scenario Dungeon Generation Card
?Chapter 358: Chapter 226: Scenario Dungeon Generation Card Chapter 358: Chapter 226: Scenario Dungeon Generation Card The night enveloped East Imperial Road like a thin veil gently descending.
On the streets, the lights shimmered like flowing gold, inducing a sense of dazzle and blur.
Everything before my eyes seemed to have been overlaid with a vintage filter.
Making each brick, each shop window, and each figure appear tinged with a patina of age.
Xue, dressed in a black evening gown, had immaculate makeup, bright red lips, and wavy long hair. She leaned against the terrace railing, exuding an air of charm reminiscent of the beauties of old Shanghai.
Beside and behind her stood several young men and women.
Elegant and confident, socially active, in pursuit of quality.
This scene evoked memories in Tang Song of when he first saw her.
It was purely her beauty that had caught his attention, leading him to notice her unusual behavior.
He wasn’t too surprised to encounter her here, since the Gli Hotel was only one kilometer away.
The only annoyance might be that such active socializing could attract too many suitors.
Like Ansel, for instance.
“That beauty over there is looking in our direction, she seems to be looking at you!” Li Zhixi nudged him with his shoulder, excitedly whispering, “Brother Song, wanna go add her on WeChat? I think you have a good chance, just give it a try, and if it fails, we won’t laugh at you.”
The reason Li Zhixi dared to prod Tang Song to ask for her WeChat wasn’t only because the guy was indeed handsome, but also because he had heard from Qiu Yu that Tang Song was particularly influential at Huashang Clothing.
This, combined with what he had said at dinner about Songmei Clothing, proved that his company must be doing quite well, given the collaboration with big enterprises like Huashang.
Hearing Li Zhixi’s words, Tang Song chuckled, “Why shouldn’t she take the initiative to ask for my WeChat? When can us boys stand tall! It’s so frustrating!”
“Damn, you really don’t understand romance, man. If you could score a chick like her, that would be the ultimate face-giving.” Li Zhixi couldn’t help but sneak another peek at the direction of the terrace, “She’s still looking at you, there’s a chance!”
The woman was indeed beautiful and delicate, dressed lavishly like a gorgeous leading lady just stepped out of a Korean drama, with enticing features.
Compared to her, Qiu Yu or Zhang Xi seemed quite ordinary.
In fact, there were similar high-quality women in his company.
Petite bourgeoisie, aloof, elegant, sensual.
Though not as outstanding, they had a similar vibe.
Tang Song had no unrealistic thoughts about this kind of woman; clearly, they were not from the same world.
…
??BGM: Regret slowly erodes my heart, wiping away the last tear, from now on I will cry for no one…?
The music in the bar gradually subsided.
“Xue, Xue.” Xing said cheerfully, “What song would you like to hear next? I’ll tell the staff.”
“Ah—” Muxue shuddered from the cold, her buzz fading, and subconsciously moved aside to put more distance between herself and Xing.
A layer of fine sweat immediately formed on her forehead, and she had no mind to pay him any attention as she gripped her glass tightly.
“What’s wrong, Muxue?” Wang Mei immediately showed concern from behind.
The others also looked over curiously.
“It’s nothing.” Muxue took a deep breath, turning her face towards Tang Song’s direction, a forced smile appearing on her face.
Her thoughts raced.
[He is in Shanghai! A surprise for the evening? A surprise for the evening!]
[Is this the surprise for Qianqian!? This…]
In Muxue’s mind, she believed her image in Tang Song’s eyes was quite good.
The epitome of an elegant, independent woman working in a financial company, pretty and stylish.
After giving him the cold shoulder when he tried to ask for her WeChat, it had taken quite an effort to finally get their relationship a bit closer, giving her some confidence in her plans moving forward.
Now, with Tang Song suddenly seeing her out drinking and with other men around,
Could he be getting the wrong idea?
Heaven help me, I, Xue, have always been pure and self-respecting!
I came out tonight purely to show up a college classmate; these two guys just sidled up to me, I’m not familiar with them!
Li Xinyi and Cao Jingsi, who knew Muxue slightly better, quickly noticed her abnormality.
Following her gaze downward, they saw two figures standing there.
Under the dim streetlights, Tang Song looked utterly ordinary in a T-shirt, jeans, and black-framed glasses, with a backpack, resembling a university student.
Yet, his bearing made him appear mature and distinguished.
Especially standing on the vintage street of Shanghai, he had a special allure.
As for Li Zhixi standing to the left, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, he was automatically overlooked by them.
Ansel raised his slender eyebrows and murmured, “Tang Song?”
At the mention of that name, Muxue’s expression changed again.
[How does Ansel know Tang Song?]
Wang Mei asked curiously, “Ansel, do you know that handsome guy?”
“Heh, just a casual acquaintance.” Ansel moved beside Muxue and whispered, “Xue, do you know him?”
He had a very clear memory of this boy who had some connection with Qiuyu.
Especially since he had heard that they had gone to support Su Yu at the film festival that day.
He could see right through this guy’s intentions.
Wasn’t he just trying to pick up girls under the guise of being a fan of Su Yu?
In fact, he too had become a good friend to Cheng Qiuyu in high school precisely by playing the card of a “die-hard Su Yu fan.”
Having hosted her visit to Shanghai, he had hoped to further his relationship with her.
But Qiuyu was just too aloof. In high school, one could say she was focused on her studies, but now, her demeanor seemed quite abnormal.
He wondered if it was an indication of frigidity; faced with an accomplished, handsome star like himself, she was unmoved.
