Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Scorned (Second Update)
"Exchange meeting?" Lin Xi thought, it seemed there was such a thing.
Since it wasn’t something just between the two of them, he wasn’t very interested and said, "Susu, I remember, I have something to do tonight!"
"You can just drop me off in front!"
Luo Susu rolled her eyes at Lin Xi upon hearing this, thinking to herself, wasn’t that too fake of an excuse.
But since she already let Lin Xi into the car, she didn’t plan on letting him get off again, at least not until the exchange meeting was over. As for after it ended, that wasn’t her concern.
So, Luo Susu pretended not to hear it, continuing to drive seriously.
"...." Lin Xi was taken aback, realizing he had boarded a pirate ship, he had no choice but to clarify, "With your skills, it’s just an exchange meeting. Who could match you?"
"So, whether I accompany you or not, it doesn’t matter."
This was advice spoken kindly, and logically speaking, Luo Susu should understand.
Indeed, Luo Susu listened, but not in adopting what he said, just the literal hearing. At least that’s how it seemed.
Then she suddenly tensed up, saying, "What did you say? I didn’t hear too clearly. When driving and someone talks, I tend to make mistakes. Last time, I drove into a ditch because of it."
Throughout, she didn’t glance at Lin Xi, but stared straight ahead, looking extremely serious.
"...." Lin Xi was speechless, there was nothing wrong with Luo Susu’s words, but from her demeanor, he could tell that her reactions were all feigned.
Alright, though her acting was good, how could she fool him?
Lin Xi said nothing more. Since she was so insistent, then he’d go.
But actually, he wasn’t completely free. At least he could go back and make some food for Bai Bing.
"Hey, hey, hey, what’s going on!"
"How could I have such a thought? Could it be that I’ve gotten used to cooking these past few days? Gotten used to serving people?"
"So does that mean I’ve become a nanny?"
Thinking of this, Lin Xi’s face darkened a little.
"What’s wrong?" Luo Susu asked, managing to notice Lin Xi’s change in expression, clearly indicating her earlier claim of being too tense was a lie.
"Nothing." Lin Xi paid it no mind.
The exchange was held at a famous cultural building in the city center, but this piano exchange wasn’t large-scale, only renting a smaller venue on the seventeenth floor.
Of course, even a small room like this had over three hundred square meters.
Inside, apart from casually placed twenty or so chairs and some long tables with drinks, cakes, and fruits on them,
the main feature was in the center of the venue, a grand piano, a PETROF brand, with this model priced around 8 million in the market.
At this time, people started to trickle in, all dressed well but not extravagantly.
In the underground parking lot, Lin Xi got out of the car with a complicated expression.
Luo Susu not only drove fast but recklessly, running several red lights along the way. If not for Lin Xi’s timely guidance, there was a 70% chance of a crash.
Meanwhile, as Luo Susu got out, she seemed carefree, likely self-satisfied, and even asked Lin Xi, "What’s up?"
Well, Lin Xi shook his head, thinking maybe all female drivers were like this.
Afterward, the two took the elevator straight to the seventeenth floor.
Upon reaching the seventeenth floor and walking to the agreed venue, they found two men in suits standing outside the door, appearing like security personnel.
Luo Susu was in front, Lin Xi followed behind.
After Luo Susu entered, Lin Xi was directly stopped by the two, one of them asked, "What are you doing here? Do you have an invitation?"
Their eyes clearly carried a disdainful look, as if Lin Xi had walked into the wrong place.
