Chapter 20 – Martini

After the end of the luxurious banquet, the guests were all ushered into the adjacent reception hall by the hotel staff.

Here there was a large dance floor, couches, as well as several bars. The lighting was low and with the addition of the DJ playing sometime slow and sometimes fast music, the entire atmosphere turned into that of a club.

A few young people were delighted by this. They immediately threw off the previous formality, which was rather like being at a wedding, and ran to the dance floor to dance. This was an entertainment company’s party after all. Most of the employees had outgoing and lively personalities and were always up for a challenge. Since the company had organized such a good party for them, then it would be remiss if they didn’t have a great time.

Thus the entire venue became very high.

The red, purple, blue and green electronic lights flashed and the DJ’s music also became faster and more frenetic, the bass was strong and the beat of the music made people’s eardrums as well as the floor thump. There were more and more people crowded onto the dance floor. Other than the employees, there were also quite a few artists that couldn’t control their instincts and decided to throw their images to the wind for this night.

Bai Lang didn’t join in this fun. He thought he was already someone who was over 30 years old in his heart, so this kind of frenetic activity only made him feel tired. 

Very early on he sat on a couch and found a comfortable position. He ordered a glass of juice and watched the lively dance floor. As for Rong SiQi this real young person, he sat next to Bai Lang like a wallflower. After Bai Lang asked him curiously why he didn’t go and join the fun, Rong SiQi bluntly replied that he might fall over, so Bai Lang really couldn’t ask anymore.

However the two of them were both people of note. After UNI’s advertisement filled the streets, the two people became two of the most admired stars in the company. Many artists wanted to get to know them and so of course wouldn’t miss this opportunity. So after they sat down, Bai Lang and Rong SiQi were constantly visited by colleagues wanting to say hello and so they also weren’t bored.

The same type of scene could be seen on the other side of the hall.

And this one was much bigger.

The film emperor Su Quan and Total Entertainment’s big boss Qiu Qian were casually sitting. Every now and then they would exchange a few sentences and careful observers could immediately sniff out the fact that these two probably were old acquaintances. Otherwise, since after joining Total Entertainment, Su Quan had spent most of his time overseas, how could he have gotten to know the boss so well? 

And Su Quan, who usually disliked talking to the public about his personal life, was in an unusually good mood this night. When people asked him about his life overseas he didn’t mind responding a few sentences. Of course people only dared to ask him polite type questions, after all even if they were high level management, when they were stared at by Qu Quan’s deep, magnetic eyes and received his half-smile, they all felt like their heads were swimming.  

The only person that seemed unaffected was the big boss Qiu Qian.

As usual he was still wearing a flower print shirt over which he wore a black suit. A few buttons which hadn’t been buttoned up showed his wheat-colored tanned skin and the gold chain on his neck. He leaned back lazily on his seat next to the exceptionally handsome film Emperor, however his wild sensuality didn’t lose to Su Quan when catching the eye.

When Qiu Qian sat down he had ordered a martini, listened to the chatter around him and gazed lazily at the dance floor.

It looked extremely casual but only Qiu Qian knew that from this angle he could see in a direct line to the corner where Bai Lang was sitting. Although it was far away, there was nothing blocking his vision.
