Upon hearing Tang Muran's words, the corner of Qiu qiu's mouth twitched slightly. "You've already played this type of game, didn't you say that playing this game was childish in the past?"
"I saw that someone wanted to play, so I decided to accompany you a little." Holding Qiu qiu's hand, Tang Muran laughed wantonly.
Hearing Tang Muran's words, Qiu qiu did not bother to say anymore.
"Alright, everyone listen to me. Let go of each other's hands and lead them away. Then, each of you take two steps back." Huo Chenmian's voice sounded once again.
Qiu qiu looked at Tang Muran, lowered her voice, thought for a while, and said: "When the lights come out, the one you'll find will not be me, you're dead for sure!"
Tang Muran listened to Qiu qiu's words, smiling halfway as if she was in high spirits: "Don't worry, even if the lights are off, I will find you the first thing."
Hearing Tang Muran's words, Qiu qiu did not hesitate anymore. It was just a game after all.
Letting go of Qiu qiu's hand, Tang Muran looked at Qiu qiu, causing him to stand at the same place and retreat himself. Qiu qiu's skirt was going to be a bit more difficult to walk on, it was so tormenting that she would fall later.
When Tang Muran had just turned off the rear lights, the entire banquet hall suddenly darkened. Qiu qiu did not move, she just stood there, believing that Tang Muran would be able to find her.
Although he thought about it without moving, because it had gone dark, when people couldn't see it, they would become especially flustered. Qiu qiu who was originally standing against the wall was still forcefully pushed forward.
Wearing high heels accidentally caused Qiu qiu to stagger a few steps and almost fall to the ground, but she was supported by someone.
The person held onto Qiu qiu's hand, allowing Qiu qiu to stand steadily, she wanted to struggle free, because she could immediately feel that she was not Tang Muran. However, the person held her hand tightly, and had no intention of letting go.
Qiu qiu thought for a while, stood still, and said lightly: "Thank you, I'll have to trouble you to let me go. I have someone waiting for me. "
Hearing Qiu qiu's words, the man lightly smiled, the voice sounded familiar, but she could not tell who it was.
"Just now, the rules of the game are, whoever's hand you hold, just wait for the lights to come on. Does this young lady not want to follow them?" It sounded like a voice that was deliberately lowered, but was indescribably charming.
She had to escape as soon as possible. In case Tang Muran did not find her, then at least she could not hold hands with others, and as long as she and Tang Muran did not hold hands with anyone, they could still dance together.
There were still people within reach of his fingers. Qiu qiu's mind went back and forth a thousand times, and he already had an idea.
When she counted down, Qiu qiu used the fastest speed she could muster to grab hold of the person beside him, and pulled strongly towards herself, pulling Qiu qiu's man to the side. Qiu qiu took this opportunity and fiercely stepped on the man's feet with his high heels.
The man felt pain, and the grip on Qiu qiu's hand loosened. Qiu qiu quickly took the chance and dodged, and just as she dodged, she was pulled into her embrace. A faint sandalwood scent wafted over, it was the smell she was the most familiar with.
This time, Qiu qiu did not struggle. Instead, she grabbed Tang Muran's shirt and nestled in his arms.
With one hand, Tang Muran grabbed Qiu qiu, and with the other, he pushed the woman who had just crawled up to him.
"This is what you deserve." Although it was too dark to see clearly at this moment, his eyes were still staring straight ahead, filled with provocation and ridicule.
When the light returned, Qiu qiu looked at Tang Muran who was beside him and Lin Ran who was lying on the ground. Then, she looked around Lin Ran and he couldn't see a single woman.
silently stood up from the ground. After giving Tang Muran a deep look, he pushed through the crowd and left without a trace.
No wonder someone had pushed her just now, it should have been Lin Ran just now. Raising her head to look at Tang Muran, he saw that the corner of Tang Muran's mouth was half bent, but there was no smile in her eyes.
"Were you injured just now?" Tang Muran said in concern as he saw Qiu qiu looking at him.
Qiu qiu shook her head, and replied with the back of her hand, "No."
With how concerned she was for Qiu qiu, how could Tang Muran miss out on her tiny detail?
"Alright, since everyone has found him, let the ball officially begin! "Congratulations to everyone for being able to hold hands. I hope everyone can have a good time today at this banquet." Huo Dehua's voice sounded out once again, but this time, the tall and slender figure beside him was completely different.
Tang Muran held Qiu qiu's hand and said lightly: "Go back."
After Qiu qiu heard Tang Muran's words, she was slightly stunned for a moment before nodding her head: "Okay."
Honestly speaking, she herself did not really like this kind of banquet. She gave Lin Tong and Xiao Mei a meaningful glance, and then Qiu qiu and Tang Muran quietly left. Now that everyone's attention was focused on their own partner, they did not notice Tang Muran and Qiu qiu leaving either.
On the other hand, Huo Dehua, who had been watching from the side all this while, watched as Huo Chenmian left. When Lin Ran left, in the end, the couple also left, their eyes flashed with the light of annihilation.
When Qiu qiu and Tang Muran got on the car heading back to the hotel, Qiu qiu was still rather curious: "Where's the helicopter?"
"I'll come pick us up tomorrow." Tang Muran didn't want to let go of Qiu qiu even for a second, so he held his hand tightly.
Hearing Tang Muran's words, Qiu qiu was surprised but also a little excited. She had never been in a helicopter in her entire life.
"How did you find me?" However, she was still a little curious about how Tang Muran found her at the last moment, because even she herself felt that it was too late, and she could only shake the man beside her off.
"I knew it wasn't you. You wouldn't have that bad perfume smell. It's also very easy to find you because my eyes never left you." Tang Muran said indifferently as he reached out to stroke Qiu qiu's hair.
Hearing him speak so nonchalantly, Qiu qiu immediately blushed. Was this what he called teasing others without even knowing it?
As a result, he had been keeping an eye on Qiu qiu the entire time, and it was clear that he would be able to find Qiu qiu. This included when Qiu qiu was pulled by the hypocrite, he had already walked forward, but she did not expect that Lin Ran, this woman, would not give up, and even stick close to him.
When she was prepared to make his move, Qiu qiu had already made his move. When she thought of how her foot had stepped on that hypocrite's foot, he became ecstatic, but when he saw the red mark on Qiu qiu's wrist, he felt that stepping on it was too light …
That was why he had seen it when Lin Ran had pushed her, and was why he was able to push Lin Ran forward so that she would fall.
He had always been a vindictive person, he might be able to endure being targeted at him, but being targeted at his woman was something he absolutely could not tolerate. As such, there was nothing to think about, he would treat Lin Ran the same way Lin Ran treated him!
When they returned to the hotel, Laurence and An Dai Li were no longer there. Qiu qiu asked worriedly: "Has Laurence contacted you yet?"
"No, but don't worry about him. He'll take care of himself." Tang Muran was very calm, there was no need to worry at all. The reason why he was caught by An Dai Li was because of one mistake, but how could someone like him allow himself to make mistakes many times?
Qiu qiu was about to take off her makeup when Tang Muran asked her to pour him a glass of wine. Qiu qiu could only drag her skirt to get some wine, and when she finished pouring the alcohol, Qiu qiu heard a soothing music.
Qiu qiu walked to Tang Muran's side with the wine in hand and said: "This wine is not comparable to your treasured wine. I bought it a few days ago, I plan to bring it back for you to taste."
Tang Muran pinched Qiu qiu's face and said: "Thank you, thank you."
"How did you get that thing? I didn't make a sound last time." Qiu qiu pointed to the music playing on the old broadcaster.
"This is the difference between geniuses and ordinary people." Tang Muran pointed to his brain, then said indifferently to Qiu qiu.
Hearing Tang Muran's words, the corner of Qiu qiu's mouth twitched. If it wasn't for the alcohol in his hand, he would definitely punch Tang Muran hard.
"Come on, the first dance is mine." Tang Muran reached out and took the bottle of wine that Qiu qiu was holding, and casually placed it on the table, with one hand placed in front of his chest, he slightly bent down and made an inviting gesture.
Qiu qiu looked at Tang Muran as she pursed her lips and smiled, taking her hand. Accompanied by the music, their voices snuggled together under the light.
Once the dance ended, Qiu qiu's blushing face turned away and did not meet Tang Muran's gaze. It was really too much of a violation of the rules, and when this man looked at you seriously, those eyes that wanted to pour out her heart and filled with strong feelings was truly too much for others to resist.
"Hide what?" Tang Muran used one of his hands to straighten Qiu qiu's face that he had deceived before, and asked with a hoarse voice while pressing his forehead.
Even though he wanted to eat her alive …
"I didn't dodge." Qiu qiu said while looking at Tang Muran.
When Tang Muran heard Qiu qiu's words, he immediately picked him up with a smile.
"Hey, what are you doing? We haven't even had a drink. " Being suddenly lifted up, Qiu qiu hurriedly wrapped her arms around Tang Muran's neck, and said while looking at the wine on the table.
Hearing Qiu qiu's words, Tang Muran leaned over and kissed Qiu qiu's cheeks: "Drinking wine is not as important as doing business, you can drink the rest, but I can't wait now."
With that, Qiu qiu was immediately placed onto the soft bed, and Tang Muran quickly followed.
Out of the corner of his eyes, Tang Muran saw the red marks on his white arm, and instantly woke up and asked: "Where did you put the medicine?"
"On the white cabinet outside." Qiu qiu said softly, a little confused as to what he wanted the medicine for.
Tang Muran stood up and walked out. When he entered, he was already holding a medicine box.
