Chapter 527: Chapter 526: Xiaolang Dazzles the Crowd at the Party (Third Update)
In Yin Qin’s office.
Ji Baixin’s excitement seemed particularly cold in front of Yin Qin.
Yin Qin said, “I know what you are considering, but I don’t want to talk more about the child. Xiao Hu is Xiaolang’s, and this cannot be changed by anyone, including me.”
“Yin Qin. Perhaps you haven’t noticed the eSports world’s expectations for Xiaolang?! Perhaps you didn’t realize that the nation is waiting for Luo Xiaolang to bring honor back to the country. Yet you let Xiaolang walk the path of regret.”
“Everyone’s pursuits are different. You have your pursuit of your career, but Xiaolang does not. All she wants a simple and peaceful life.”
“If she chooses a simple life, then why would she join the eSports team?”
“She needs to ensure her own living expenses.”
“Yin Qin, you’re being really autocratic.” Ji Baixin rebutted, “If Luo Xiaolang was really just trying to ensure her own expenses and wanted to live a simple life with Xiao Hu, she wouldn’t compete while Xiao Hu is sick. Don’t define Xiaolang with your mindset.”
“That’s why I’ve made it clear, Xiaolang can choose her own life, and we have no right to intervene.”
Ji Baixin looked at Yin Qin.
Saw how he handles the matter of Xiao Hu, it indeed appeared exceptionally indifferent.
No matter what she said or how she sweet-talked, it did not seem to have any effect on him.
The atmosphere between the two became tense.
Yin Qin said, “Let me help you apply a cold compress to your face.”
“No need.” Ji Baixin declined, “I genuinely feel that as for Xiao Hu’s matter, I’m fruitlessly warming myself to your cold indifference.”
Yin Qin pursed his lips and did not say anything.
“I’m leaving.”
Saying so, Ji Baixin turned and left.
Yin Qin did not stop her.
He watched her retreating figure, feeling agitated in his heart.
He truly felt his life was exhausting, so very exhausting....
Whether with Ji Baixin or with Luo Xiaolang, he feels powerless.
He felt detached from life.
He glanced at the suddenly ringing phone.
Yin Qin looked at the caller id and felt a throb in his heart.
Now, he felt his heart beating faster, not only for seeing Luo Xiaolang, but even at the sight of her name.
He answered the call, “Luo Xiaolang.”
“Yin Qin, I’m just calling to tell you not to mess with Xiao Hu, I’m not easy to provoke.”
Yin Qin gripped his phone.
Ji Baixin probably spoke harsh words today, otherwise Luo Xiaolang would not actively call him.
“Okay,” Yin Qin replied.
The moment Luo Xiaolang planned to hang up the phone.
Yin Qin suddenly asked, “You ranked first in the domestic competition, do you have other plans for the future?”
“Are you asking me if there is no one to take care of Xiao Hu?”
“No.”
She was very motivated to have Xiaolang attend the banquet. She promised to take good care of Xiaolaoh.
Luo Xiaolang had already promised Joe to join, anyway she had already turned down Joe’s international tournament invitation, so she said yes to the things she was capable of doing.
Joe took Luo Xiaolang to an international shopping center.
Joe picked out a white dress for Luo Xiaolang.
For some reason, he thought Luo Xiaolang looked great in white.
The color was clean and fresh, just like how Luo Xiaolang came across to people.
Joe also chose a white tailcoat for himself. With his tall and robust stature, handsome face, and his exceptional agility, he captured the hearts of the dress shop’s numerous attendants. Despite possessing pretty boy looks, God Joe chose to conquer everyone through sheer talent!
After changing into his clothes, Joe sat on a couch waiting for Luo Xiaolang.
It took Luo Xiaolang two full hours of makeover before she came out of the dressing room.
She tiptoed out in a pair of white heels, carefully making her way across the floor, unaware of the attention she was attracting.
Joe was transfixed by the sight of Luo Xiaolang.
If it weren’t for the fact that they were alone, he would have had trouble recognizing her.
She usually wore her hair down without any style. Now that it had grown, she tied it up in a ponytail. Her hairdresser designed her shoulder-length hair into a bob and dyed it temporarily into a cold brown color. She looked significantly softer and sweeter, surpassed only by her incredibly delicate makeup. Joe never thought that Luo Xiaolang could look this stunning in makeup—the result was truly breathtaking!
She was wearing a white figure-hugging dress that accentuated every curve of her body without revealing too much.
Luo Xiaolang had a nice figure.
She was slender, tall, and had a curvy silhouette.
Her high thin heels elevated her petite figure even more. The white ribbons wrapping around her calves drew Joe’s eyes, leading him to feeling parched all of a sudden.
He quickly averted his gaze.
Luo Xiaolang approached Joe and asked, “Do I look nice like this?”
Joe stared at her delicately made-up face.
At that moment, he found himself at a loss for words as his palms started breaking out in a sweat.
He nodded emphatically.
“Good,” said Luo Xiaolang with a captivating smile.
Her smile stirred an array of emotions within him.
Joe stood up from the couch and took Luo Xiaolang’s hand.
Luo Xiaolang was taken aback, but then she kept pace with him, striding off towards the party’s venue.
Luo Xiaolang was not new to such banquets since she used to attend with Song Zhizhi. In those times, her attendance was meant to protect Song Zhizhi. But this time she was an invited guest, stirring up a flurry of emotions within her.
When Joe and Luo Xiaolang entered the banquet hall, every eye in the room turned to them.
The stars of tonight’s event were Joe’s team. Despite the presence of many internet industry tycoons, the freshly victorious competitors were the true stars of the show.
As soon as Joe arrived, all eyes were on him.
Then the guessing began. Who was the woman beside him?
Who was she to be walking beside Joe? Who was allowed to hold hands with him like that?
Yin Qin was also present.
As the leader of the internet industry, he naturally received an invitation.
He didn’t realize that the woman by Joe’s side was Luo Xiaolang. He was wondering, wasn’t Joe single? His girlfriend is pretty.
Then Ji Baixin suddenly remarked, “Is that Luo Xiaolang?”
Yin Qin’s heart bounced wildly!
