Chapter 35
The crowd's laughter filled the room, and Fade Chen flung his hair and put on a posture that he thought was very handsome. He walked to the innermost space of the lobby and sat opposite Quin Lin. He started the conversation with a smile, "Dear, what can I do for you?"
"Don't call me that in the company." Quin Lin glared at Fade Chen coldly and then glanced downstairs. "Also, your little tricks with Donald Qin are extremely boring."
Fade Chen immediately stopped smiling and said grievingly, "Wife... no... Ms. Lin, it was Donald Qin who provoked me first, and I was just.."
"There's no need to say that. I don't want to know." Quin Lin interrupted Fade Chen's complaint. "I called you here because I have something to tell you."
"What's the matter? Even if it's something that will kill me, I'm willing to do it for you, President Lin" Fade Chen said ingratiatingly.
Quin Lin said without emotion, "You don't have to die to do this. At 8 o'clock tonight, there will be a networking event in Bay Central Hotel. I want you to accompany me to the party."
"Ah.. a networking event." Fade Chen was a little dumbfounded. After all, he had never attended such a party on Mount Tianwu.
Quin Lin raised her eyebrows and said, "Why, you don't want to? Then I'll find someone else."
"No, no! My wife, President Lin, I'm willing. I'm willing to do so." Fade Chen hurriedly said, "However, I've never attended such parties. I'm afraid that I'll embarrass you."
Quin Lin said lightly, "Even I'm not afraid of this, so there's nothing for you to be afraid of."
Hearing this, Fade Chen felt a little strange.
"Alright, it's over. You can leave now." Quin Lin started to drive him away.
Fade Chen said, "Honey, I haven't eaten yet. How about stay here and have lunch with you?" He picked up his chopsticks and was ready to pick up food.
However, Quin Lin put down her chopsticks, stood up and said, "You eat these and I'll have mine downstairs."
Now, Fade Chen did not dare to say anything. He could only put down his chopsticks and said with an embarrassed smile, "My... President Lin, calm down. I'm just kidding. I'm going down now. You must eat well and not starve yourself.
With this, Fade Chen went downstairs, went to the counter to fill up two plates of food, and returned to Xenia Xu again.
Before he opened his mouth, Xenia Xu curiously lean over. She blinked her big black eyes and asked, "Doctor Chen, why does Miss Lin want to see you? Did she punish you for not coming to work for two days?"
"How is it possible?" Fade Chen stuffed a drumstick in his mouth and said carelessly, "Miss Lin wants a date with me after work."
"Humph, forget that I asked." Xenia Xu said with a look of disbelief, "Miss Lin wants to go on a date with you. Why don't you say that President Lin's your wife?"
"Miss Lin is really my wife." Fade Chen muttered with a smile, but obviously, Xenia Xu wouldn't believe it. Instead, she picked up a drumstick and put it into Fade Chen's mouth, saying, "Don't talk nonsense.
If Miss Lin hears it, she will fire you. Let's eat."
"This drumstick that Xenia feeds me is the best." Fade Chen grabbed the drumstick and bit into it. In a few minutes, he finished both plates of food.
After lunch, they rested for half an hour. Then, afternoon work began. Fade Chen went straight into the pharmacy and started working. Soon, it was time to get off work. Fade Chen came out of the pharmacy and saw a message from Quin Lin. He tapped into it and saw read the message from his wife. She asked Fade Chen to go to the basement carpark after work and proceed to leave for the party venue.
Fade Chen quickly changed his clothes and rushed to the basement carpark. As expected, Fade Chen found his wife's red Ferrari parked at the front of the elevator.
He got into the car, fastened his seat belt, and they left the office building. Instead of returning home, she drove to a shopping street in the centre of Bay City.
Quin Lin guided Fade Chen around all kinds of luxury stores. She changed his attire and appearance from head to toe, from inside to outside, even his aura had changed. The usual frivolous smile is now packed with charm, which could possibly seduce any woman.
Of course, it was all the work of the new attire which costed more than 500,000 dollars, which was so expensive that Fade Chen's heart was bleeding.
After dressing Fade Chen up. Quin Lin also changed into her dress.
The light blue dress was very fitting to her body, which outlined Quin Lin's perfect curvature. The exquisite but understated necklace and earrings she wore gave her a luxurious yet elegant vibe.
Even Fade Chen, who had known Quin Lin for a long time, could not help but feel amazed at her. He stared at Quin Lin and felt himself salivating.
"What are you looking at? It's getting late. Let's go."
Quin Lin rolled her eyes at Fade Chen and turned around but she could not help but smile.
Fade Chen wiped the corner of his mouth and quickly followed her. He sat in the passenger seat with a smile on his face. "Dear, I feel a slight regret for agreeing to go to the party."
"What's wrong?" Quin Lin couldn't help but feel nervous and stared at Fade Chen. She was afraid that hewould regret and drop out halfway.
Fade Chen's eyes sparked and said with a smile, "Because my wife is too beautiful, to think that your beauty will be shown to other men. I feel that I'm the one who will suffer losses!"
Quin Lin was stunned and her cheeks blushed. She turned her head away with a serious face and coldly said, "You have a glib tongue." Then she started the car's engine and drove towards the Bay Central Hotel.
Fade Chen, who had been staring sideways at Quin Lin, found that his wife began to smile.
Soon, at the entrance of the hotel, the two got off and gave the car keys to the parking attendant. Then they stood side by side.
Quin Lin took a deep breath and seemed to have made up her mind on something, she smiled and held Fade Chen's arm and said, "Let's go in."
This startled Fade Chen. He didn't understand why his wife suddenly became so proactive.
Before Fade Chen could ask, Quin Lin explained in a low voice, "Almost all the famous entrepreneurs in Bay City will come to this party. Howard Zhang will also come, so..."
"I show up at the cocktail party as your husband to stop other men, especially Howard Zhang. Am I right, honey?" Fade Chen instantly understood.
Quin Lin nodded and said, "That's what I mean. The main issue is Howard Zhang. He's not easy to deal with. You have to be careful later."
Fade Chen said confidently, "Don't worry, honey. Your husband is a tough one to deal with."
Quin Lin rolled her eyes at Fade Chen and said, "Don't talk if you don't know what's going on inside. Just stand by my side and smile."
"I understand. Don't worry, my wife. Let's go in. If we don't go in, all the good food and wine would have been eaten by other guests, then it will be a waste." Fade Chen nodded with a look of understanding.
Quin Lin felt a faint sense of regret. Was it appropriate for her to bring this man here?
But before she could think about it, Fade Chen had already entered the hotel with Quin Lin on his arm.
