"Ahem, Guo'er, my dear, we're here," Lin Kuang said as he stopped the car.
At that moment, the entrance of the Red Dust Club was packed with luxury cars. Rolls-Royces, Lamborghinis, Porsches, Bentleys—it looked like a high-end car show.
"Well, since we're here, let's get out," Lin Guo'er said.
Lin Kuang nodded, parked the car, and then got out with Lin Guo'er. The time was 6:40 PM, just shy of seven.
"Let's go," Lin Guo'er said with a smile, taking Lin Kuang's arm as they walked into the Red Dust Club.
Hou Mingshi had booked the entire sixth floor. Since he was back in town and organizing the reunion, he naturally wanted to make a big impression. It was a chance to flaunt his status and, of course, show off a little.
They took the elevator straight to the sixth floor. Soft music filled the entire level, and about twenty people were already there. As Lin Kuang and Lin Guo'er entered, a waiter immediately approached to greet them.
"Excuse me, are you here for the party hosted by Mr. Hou?" the waiter asked with a smile.
Lin Guo'er smiled and nodded. "Yes, I see my friends already." With that, she pulled Lin Kuang forward.
"Yingying, Wenwen," Lin Guo'er called out with a smile as they approached.
Hearing her voice, Xu Yingying and Yao Wenwen turned and saw Lin Guo'er, along with Lin Kuang at her side.
Lin Kuang saw the two women as well, and he had to admit, both were beauties. Xu Yingying was petite and adorable. Yao Wenwen, on the other hand, had a stunning figure and was dressed just as daringly. With much of her fair chest exposed, she was a definite eye-catcher.
"Guo'er, you're finally here!" Xu Yingying and Yao Wenwen got up and walked over, greeting her with warm smiles.
"Wow, you guys got here early," Lin Guo'er said, thrilled to see her old classmates. Xu Yingying and Yao Wenwen were her best friends, and while they hadn't seen each other in a long time, they had always kept in touch.
"We came early just to see you! And you, you heartless thing, show up this late," Yao Wenwen said, giving her a look of mock complaint.
"Hehe, Wenwen, still as fiery as ever," Lin Guo'er giggled. Her pale hand couldn't resist giving Yao Wenwen's ample chest a squeeze, making even Lin Kuang feel a little awkward.
"You little pervert, always groping me. Come here, let me see if yours have grown," Yao Wenwen said with a mischievous grin, her hand darting out toward Lin Guo'er's chest, but Lin Guo'er deftly sidestepped her.
"Well, who told you to dress so provocatively? It's impossible for someone *not* to get ideas," Lin Guo'er retorted with a grin.
"Honestly, you two start this the moment you meet. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were a couple," the petite Xu Yingying interjected.
At her words, Lin Guo'er and Yao Wenwen stopped, their gazes falling on Xu Yingying. "Little Yingying, you've... developed quite a bit yourself. Much bigger than before," Lin Guo'er said with a teasing grin, gesturing toward Xu Yingying's chest.
Xu Yingying's pretty face flushed red, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes at Lin Guo'er.
"So, who's this? You two were awfully close when you came in. Don't tell me he's your boyfriend?" Yao Wenwen asked with a smile, glancing at Lin Kuang.
"Of course he is. What do you think of my man? Pretty sharp, isn't he?" Lin Guo'er said cheerfully. She boldly wrapped an arm around Lin Kuang's waist and rested her head on his shoulder. The lovey-dovey display stunned Xu Yingying and Yao Wenwen.
They knew Lin Guo'er's personality. When had their fierce friend become so docile and clingy? It was almost impossible to believe.
"Not bad, not bad at all," Yao Wenwen finally said after a moment of stunned silence, a smile returning to her face. "But Guo'er, aren't you robbing the cradle? This young man is clearly younger than you."
"It's only a few years, not a big deal. What, are you jealous?" Lin Guo'er said proudly.
"Tch, please. If I wanted a man, I'd have my pick. I have no reason to be jealous of you," Yao Wenwen retorted. "However, our dear Hou Mingshi is going to be devastated. It's obvious this whole reunion was for you, and now you've brought your boyfriend. Isn't that a huge slap in the face?"
"She's right, Guo'er," Xu Yingying added, her tone laced with worry. "Hou Mingshi is petty and comes from a powerful family. You should be careful. This could really set him off."
"What's there to be afraid of? If that guy tries anything, I'll cripple him with one kick," Yao Wenwen huffed, looking completely fearless and ignoring the stares from others.
Lin Kuang was left speechless. Like finds like, I guess. Lin Guo'er is fierce enough, but this Yao Wenwen is on another level. And to top it off, she knows martial arts!
"Exactly. Yingying, don't worry about it. It'll be fine," Lin Guo'er added with a smile.
Resigned, Xu Yingying could only nod. "Alright then, just be careful."
"Okay. Come on, let's go grab a sofa and chat," Lin Guo'er said.
With that, the three women and Lin Kuang made their way to a nearby sofa and began to talk.
Seeing the three beauties sitting together, many of the men in the room couldn't help but stare. Their gazes, especially those directed at Lin Kuang, were practically dripping with envy, jealousy, and hate. After all, he was sitting with three gorgeous women. It was enough to make any man green with envy.
Lin Kuang, however, couldn't care less about their stares. He was used to this kind of attention. The looks he got when he went shopping with Liu Shilin, Lin Guo'er, and the Witch were far more intense, and he had handled those just fine. A few jealous glances like these were nothing.
"Yingying, what is it you do here in Yanjing, anyway? You seem to be doing very well for yourself," Lin Guo'er asked. She had always been curious about Xu Yingying's background, knowing only that her family was from Yanjing.
"Hehe, Guo'er, I forgot to mention, but our dear Yingying is actually a big shot. I only found out myself when I got to Yanjing yesterday," Yao Wenwen said mysteriously.
"I'm not! Guo'er, don't listen to Wenwen's nonsense," Xu Yingying said quickly, her face turning an even deeper shade of red.
"Hehe, I'm not making it up," Yao Wenwen whispered, leaning in so only they could hear. "Listen, Guo'er, Yingying is what you'd call a 'princeling.' Her father is the commander of the Yanjing Military Region, and her grandfather, even though he's retired, is still incredibly influential!"
