It was really the first time for Lin Mo to participate in this dinner party, and he didn't have any strange feelings. But when he saw the dazzling array of delicacies, he couldn't help but move his index finger. As for the result, it was very simple, just one piece
A piece of tender steak disappeared inexplicably, and then Zhang Ningxi moved her footsteps and came to another place.
"Why do we seem like little mice stealing tributes?"
Smiling softly, Zhang Ningxi whispered in a voice that only she could hear.
"Whatever, as long as it's not discovered, it's fine."
Lin Mo whispered in Zhang Ningxi's ear in a very casual tone, not taking it seriously.
"The guy who steals food, huh~"
She snorted softly, but there was an inexplicable smell flashing in her beautiful eyes. She lowered her head and looked at the evening dress on her body, and then at the shadow under her feet. Zhang Ningxi's pretty face was slightly red, but she didn't get angry because of it.
say what.
But her uneasy mood caused her to accidentally smear some cream on the corners of her lips while eating dessert.
"The way you eat it, if someone sees it, you will lose your image."
Lin Mo's voice sounded in her ears again. Zhang Ningxi blushed and subconsciously wiped the corners of her mouth, only to find that the cream there had disappeared inexplicably.
"Um?"
After being stunned for a moment, Zhang Ningxi realized that Lin Mo had done something.
"You are becoming more and more proficient in controlling shadows."
Zhang Ningxi was a little unhappy because she didn't catch Lin Mo's pigtails, but she was warmed by the considerate service. Her beautiful eyes blinked with a smile.
"That's right, but aren't you sisters a little too boring? You always look wary."
Although he was in Zhang Ningxi's shadow, Lin Mo was still very aware of the movements of the people around him. At this time, Xu Qingqing's eyes were not on Zhang Ningxi at all. His glance had almost observed everyone at the dinner.
aside.
At this time, her eyes were fixed on the various waiters. In her opinion, if Huang Haofa wanted to sneak in here, he would either have to find a way to get an invitation to the dinner, or blend in with the waiters.
Xu Qingqing has done her best in vigilance, but she did not pay attention to the situation on Zhang Ningxi's side. The old saying goes that it is dark under the light, and this is exactly what happened.
The more obvious it is, the easier it is to be ignored.
However, even if she saw it, she probably wouldn't take it too seriously. After all, she would never have thought that someone could hide in another person's shadow, and Lin Mo was very careful in his actions. Xu Qingqing wanted to discover
, basically impossible.
Lin Mo ate quite happily. He found that eating in this shadow state was particularly convenient.
Zhang Ningxi cooperated and only stayed in each place for a while. After seeing a few pieces of food disappear, she quietly moved her steps without attracting anyone's attention, and then moved to the next place. Anyway, she found that Lin Mo was not interested in meat.
Special love.
Of course, not being picky about food is Lin Mo's greatest advantage.
Moving a little bit, for the people at this dinner party, this food is not the object of their attention at all. Even if people who maintain their own identity get here, they can only get a glass of champagne and end it.
It's really rare to see someone like Zhang Ningxi specially bringing people here to eat.
However, her free time was almost up. After more than ten minutes of eating, Zhang Ningxi managed to finish the piece of dessert on the small plate, and the items in the dining area were already one-sixth short.
At this time, many people have already paid attention to Zhang Ningxi, who has been standing here.
A man looked around and walked towards Zhang Ningxi with a glass of champagne.
After sorting out her clothes a little and confirming that there was nothing wrong with her clothes, she straightened her expression and then walked towards Zhang Ningxi. At this time, Zhang Ningxi was still looking at the food in front of her with a smile on her face. No, to be precise, it should be
Watching the disappearing shadows of pieces of food.
"Da da da"
A series of footsteps sounded, and the man slowly approached Zhang Ningxi's direction. The first one to notice this was Xu Qingqing. Before Zhang Ningxi could react, Xu Qingqing moved half a step sideways, blocking Zhang Ningxi's path.
around.
"Um?"
His line of sight was suddenly blocked, and another woman appeared in front of him. The man paused, obviously not expecting such a situation.
However, he didn't pay too much attention to it. The man just straightened his hair a little, thinking that this was another woman here who wanted to climb a high branch. The man looked up and down at Xu Qingqing in front of him, although this woman was quite beautiful.
, if it were normal, he would also be interested in learning more about it.
But now, he can't show such a miserable look. Even if this woman is dozens of times more beautiful, under the current situation, he can't say too much to this woman.
Of course, proper etiquette still needs to be observed.
"Hello, can you give me a moment?"
The man said this very politely and wanted Xu Qingqing to leave first, but it was obvious that he had spoken to the wrong person.
"Who are you?"
Xu Qingqing's reaction exceeded the man's expectations. She looked at the man seriously, became more vigilant, and took a step back with her right foot without any intention of getting out of the way.
"Huh? Beauty, what are you doing?"
The man never thought that the other person didn't know him at all. At this time, he had already seen that the way the other person looked at him was not admiration at all, and there was no
Any desire, and the vigilant eyes, simply regarded him as an enemy.
"What's wrong?"
Zhang Ningxi heard the voice behind her and turned to look behind her, only to find that Xu Qingqing had blocked her behind her. As she turned around, she naturally saw the man approaching.
"Mr. Xie?"
Hearing Zhang Ningxi's voice, both Xu Qingqing and the other one turned their attention to Zhang Ningxi.
After looking at Zhang Ningxi and confirming that Zhang Ningxi really knew the person in front of her, Xu Qingqing took a step back and stood next to Zhang Ningxi.
"Miss Zhang is still so beautiful. I'm sorry, I interrupted your meal. I wonder who this person was just now?"
Seeing the plate in Zhang Ningxi's hand, the man said slightly apologetically, and at the same time looked at Xu Qingqing with some confusion.
This woman who was slightly hostile to him made him curious about who she was.
"Oh, sorry, this is my best friend and bodyguard, Xu Qingqing. Because something happened recently, she is very concerned about my safety."
Zhang Ningxi said apologetically, reaching out to pull Xu Qingqing over.
"Qingqing, this is the president of Xie Group, Mr. Xie Zhiyuan, his company is a giant in the media industry."
Xu Qingqing nodded slightly, but her expression didn't change much. Who this man is has nothing to do with her. No matter whether he is the president of a large company or a kid from a wealthy family, as long as he does not pose a danger to Zhang Ningxi's safety, it will not be a problem for Xu Qingqing.
He is just a passerby.
After a brief acquaintance, Xu Qingqing stepped aside.
"This Miss Xu seems to be very wary of me~"
He smiled bitterly and found that Xu Qingqing had no intention of leaving. Xie Zhiyuan could only do this. Since Zhang Ningxi had said that Xu Qingqing was her best friend and bodyguard, he could not really drive Xu Qingqing away. He originally thought
This was a good opportunity to get close to Zhang Ningxi, but she didn't expect that the other party would be involved in something.
After thinking for a moment, and in order not to make the atmosphere too awkward, Xie Zhiyuan spoke again.
"Ms. Zhang, I don't know what happened to you. If it's really troublesome, why don't you tell me. I know some people who might be able to help."
Since the other party has said that he might be in trouble, you might be able to win a favor if you give him what he likes.
"No need, I have hired a professional team. It seems that there are not many problems with security now. The matter is not a big deal and will not affect our cooperation. But if we really need help, then when I find Mr. Xie
, please don’t refuse~”
Zhang Ningxi smiled softly. Although she rejected the other party, she still left enough steps for Xie Zhiyuan.
