Chapter 1568 - A Chance Encounter
Chapter 1568: A Chance Encounter
After disregarding life and death, Gu Meng and Ling Hui became braver.
Both of them were not in a good mood, so they went out for a drink on foot.
“Sister Ling Hui, did Ling Motian agree to the divorce?” Gu Meng asked on the way to the bar.
Ling Hui shook her head. “No, he’s been busy destroying my company recently.”
Gu Meng had never seen a scumbag like Ling Motian. He had cheated on his wife and had even destroyed his wife’s company so boldly, wanting to take it for himself.
“Then what do you plan to do?”
“Let him be. I’ve already sold the company to someone else.” Ling Hui looked up at the sky and heaved a sigh of relief. “After the President’s wife is punished, I’ll go back and talk to Ling Motian about the divorce!”
Ling Hui looked at Gu Meng. “What about you? What do you plan to do in the future?”
“I don’t know either. It seems like everything has returned to the beginning.” Gu Meng sighed slightly, a bitter smile on her lips. “I don’t have the energy and courage to chase after Ye Qing again. Him forgetting me this time might be the best ending God has arranged!”
Even if they had feelings for each other and he had not forgotten her, with her status as a fishing village girl, she would only be despised if she were to marry into the Royal family.
A commoner girl becoming a phoenix only appeared in fairytales!
She was past the age of dreaming!
After walking for more than ten minutes, they saw a clubhouse called Red Sun.
Not wanting to go to a bar full of people, the two of them entered Red Sun.
There were many luxurious cars parked at the entrance of Red Sun. The people who came here to spend were probably all big shots.
The private rooms were fully booked and Gu Meng and Ling Hui could only sit in the corner of the hall.
The two of them ordered a bottle of wine and started drinking one glass after another.
After drinking half a bottle, the atmosphere in Red Sun had reached its peak.
On the stage, the host announced passionately through the microphone, “Tonight is the anniversary of the opening of Red Sun. We have invited the popular female singer, Iris, to perform for everyone. If there is a guest below the stage who dares to challenge Iris and can get the audience to vote 500 times for her, she will receive an autographed photo of Iris. All expenses at Red Sun tonight will be waived, and she will also be able to get a set of jewelry designed by the jewelry designer, Vivian, who won an award some time ago.”
The host showed the set of jewelry to the guests below the stage.
Gu Meng leaned on the table and blinked when she saw the set of jewelry with the theme of ‘home’. She looked at Ling Hui beside her. “Sister Ling Hui, wasn’t I the one who designed it?” Gu Meng said and laughed at herself. “Two years ago, I was focused on work and became my favorite designer. But in the end, I didn’t even leave a set of jewelry that I designed for myself.”
Just like her relationship with Ye Qing, she had worked hard and thought that she was going to be happy soon. But in the end, she still returned to where she had started!
Ling Hui saw the sadness in Gu Meng’s eyes and she raised the sign on the table. A sharp-eyed waiter saw Ling Hui raising the sign and immediately passed the microphone over. Ling Hui drank the wine and said in a hoarse and charming voice, “I’m up for the challenge.”
Hearing Ling Hui’s words, the drunkenness in Gu Meng’s mind cleared up. She tugged on Ling Hui’s arm. “Sister Ling Hui, don’t do such meaningless things for me.”
Ling Hui leaned toward Gu Meng’s ear and said with a smile, “It’s alright. I haven’t sung in a long time. I want to go on stage and sing.”
The lights in the audience were dim and many people could not see Ling Hui and Gu Meng sitting in the last row.
However, one of the VIP rooms on the second floor had a clear view of the situation below.
A girl wearing a fur coat and a short skirt stood on the balcony. Her figure was slender and sexy, her facial features exquisite. Her skin had a healthy tan and it was obvious that she often did outdoor exercise. Her long hair was dyed golden, making her appear wild and sexy.
The girl was Iris whom the host had mentioned and was also a new female singer in S Country.
Iris glanced at Ling Hui in the corner downstairs. Ling Hui’s back was facing the private room and she could not see her face clearly. She only felt that her figure was proportionate. Even a simple white shirt accentuated her figure.
A young man sitting on the sofa in the room smiled and said, “The woman who wants to challenge Iris downstairs is really daring. Who doesn’t know that Iris is the most capable rock singer?”
“There are always women who like to be in the limelight.” Iris did not care about Ling Hui downstairs. She walked in front of Tang Xi. “Tang Xi, don’t you think so?”
Tang Xi narrowed his eyes, holding a glass of red wine as he stood up with interest. He leaned against the railing and said in a voice that only he could hear, “That might not be the case.”
…
Iris went on stage and performed a rock song. She had brought her own band. With beautiful lyrics, loud singing, exciting music, and her dance, the audience was ecstatic.
After Iris finished her song, the audience applauded enthusiastically.
Iris glanced at the corner of the audience. Although she could not see Ling Hui clearly, her eyes were filled with contempt.
It was as though she was saying, if you dare to challenge me on stage, you will definitely lose terribly.
Gu Meng looked at Ling Hui beside her and shook her hand. “Sister Ling Hui, it’s okay if you don’t win, but you will definitely stand out the most when you stand on stage.”
Ling Hui glanced at the jewelry box in the host’s hand and smiled. “Don’t worry, I will win that set of jewelry for you.”
Gu Meng could not help smiling.
Sister Ling Hui was such a queen. She had such a domineering aura.
Ling Hui stood up from the sofa.
As she walked onto the stage, countless eyes were on her.
She was wearing a white shirt and a pair of tight black pants. Her waist-length hair fell over her shoulders like a waterfall. Her beautiful eyes were innocent and charming, her slender legs wrapped in long boots.
She took the microphone and sat on a long bench. The light shone from above her head. Her exquisite facial features, picturesque face, and cold temperament made her look as if she had walked out of an oil painting.
The audience had still been immersed in the passionate dance of Iris when they suddenly saw Ling Hui sitting on stage, making them fall silent.
Ling Hui asked the service staff to bring her a guitar.
She was singing a lyrical song that was completely different from the style of Iris. Her voice seemed to have been kissed by an angel. It was full of temptation and infectiousness.
…
Tang Xi, who was standing on the second floor, leaned against the railing lazily, the red wine glass swaying between his fingers. His bright eyes landed on the woman who was playing guitar and singing on the stage.
As the song entered its climax, he narrowed his eyes slightly, a different smile appearing on his lips, like he was doting on her.
Ling Hui did not notice Tang Xi’s presence. Her long eyelashes were lowered and under the light, her face was extremely beautiful. She had a noble and cold temperament that made people only able to look at her from afar and not touch her.
