Zimei suppressed the discomfort in her heart, leaned close to Lu Shanhu's ear and whispered something to him, then threw a flirtatious glance at the other men: "Gentlemen, forgive me for leaving, please enjoy yourselves~"
"Sure, sure..."
The men nodded repeatedly.
As she turned around, the smile on Zimei's face vanished instantly, and she made her way straight through the crowd to the balcony.
The investors looked as if they had lost their souls, still reluctantly watching the direction in which Zimei left...
On the balcony
Zimei leaned against the railing and skillfully lit a lady's cigarette.
The banquet hall was so heavily air-conditioned that it made her feel stiflingly hot, but standing on the open balcony, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
She casually let down her long hair, allowing the night breeze to blow it into a dance.
Zimei took a couple of puffs of her cigarette and, while exhaling the curling smoke, glanced back at the bustling street.
