Chapter 50 Plan B
Lin Xi walked up to Su Chen, staring straight at him.
That pretty pair of eyes carried a faint smile.
But it made Su Chen's scalp tingle.
"Wife..." Su Chen braced himself and called out.
"Nice to meet you, Su the Great Designer!" Lin Xi took the initiative to reach out her hand to Su Chen, with a smile on her face.
Then she emphasized the phrase "the Great Designer."
Su Chen felt like he had screwed the pooch.
It was all Dilasi's damn fault.
This time he really got shafted.
Actually, Dilasi was innocent, who knew that Jiangdu's top beauty designer would be your wife?
To create an opportunity for you, your bro even gifted away the wedding dress of a goddess.
Then, the real socializing began.
After all, it's rare to have two world-class designers appear together at once.
"Mr. Su, I didn't expect you to be so young and accomplished."
"Mrs. Su, you're really lucky to have found such an impressive husband."
"EVE, you weren't fair, not telling us earlier."
Compliments started pouring in from more and more people.
This is the reality of society.
Before, when they didn't know Su Chen's identity, everyone looked at him as if he were a fool.
Now that they know Su Chen's identity, they immediately start to overly praise and swarm around him like moths to a flame.
There were even some who said they had long heard of Su Chen's great reputation and quite liked his works.
To all this, Su Chen just smiled faintly.
You've heard of me? I haven't even heard of me, to be honest.
As for works, does a paper airplane count?
However, it was Lin Xi who kept smiling at Su Chen, making him feel as if he were sitting on pins and needles.
At the scene, the most popular person was naturally Dilasi, followed by Su Chen.
Of course, there were also quite a few who wanted to interact with Lin Xi.
After all, she held the title of Jiangdu City's number one beauty designer.
So, Su Chen finally no longer felt Lin Xi's scorching gaze, as if she wanted to fry him.
Although they knew Su Chen was Lin Xi's husband, the girls still swarmed around him.
After all, they only wanted to use Su Chen's status to elevate their own, without expecting anything to happen with Su Chen.
Of course, if they had to pay a price, they were willing to do so.
So, it didn't take long for Su Chen to receive several little slips of paper.
Without even opening them, he knew they inevitably contained phone numbers.
Then all he needed to do was dial that number, and the person to whom the number belonged would have a five-star hotel room with a king-size bed ready, waiting there for him.
For a deeper level of connection.
Su Chen didn't find this strange.
However, what he didn't expect was that Lin Xi's classmate, Lucy, also gave him a piece of paper.
After giving him the note, Lucy went to chat with Lin Xi, seemingly completely unaware that her actions were inappropriate.
Su Chen quietly opened Lucy's note to take a look.
It read: "Mr. Su's talent is captivating. I wonder if Mr. Su likes the sea. If you do, Lucy would like to take Mr. Su to see the ocean."
This Lucy was actually pretty decent.
Blonde hair, blue eyes, a hot figure, a typical Western beauty.
Su Chen quite liked Western women—they're very open and liberal, fun, and exhilarating.
Compared to them, Eastern women tend to be more reserved.
It's just too bad she's Lin Xi's classmate... better forget about it...
The atmosphere became very lively, with everyone's faces brimming with smiles.
Except for one person.
That was He Tianqi.
This banquet was originally meticulously prepared by him for Lin Xi and himself.
But now, he, the main character, has suddenly become the least noticeable supporting role.
The spotlight should be on him.
He should be the object of envy!
It was as if the fruit he had been eyeing was picked by someone else in advance.
Anger, frustration, unwillingness!
But, it didn't matter.
He had a Plan B!
He Tianqi had made two plans from the beginning.
If the proposal failed, then he would force Lin Xi to become his woman.
He Tianqi quietly took out his phone.
A few minutes later.
A group of people suddenly barged into the villa.
About a dozen of them, wielding baseball bats, smashing everything they saw.
They looked like a bunch of gangsters, but Su Chen knew they were definitely not mere hoodlums.
Their steps were steady, their eyes sharp, and they exuded an aura of ruthlessness that only comes with experiencing slaughter.
Su Chen's brows slightly furrowed, and he immediately stepped in front of Lin Xi.
"It's a robbery, it's a robbery, take out anything valuable you have!" The leader, a United States man, was holding a gun in his hand. He raised the gun into the sky and fired.
"Ah!"
As the gunshot rang out, the scene instantly descended into chaos, especially the girls, who let out terrified screams.
"What are you yelling for, I'll kill you if you scream again! Hurry up, put all the valuable things you have into the bag!" The thugs placed a bag on the table, then gestured for everyone to take out their valuables.
At first, some were reluctant to comply, but a thug directly shot one of them in the chest.
At this point, everyone began to take out their valuables.
Most of them were watches, jewelry, and the like.
All of them high-end brands, and expensive jewelry.
The thugs' eyes shone.
This haul was worth at least tens of millions.
They were expected to leave after collecting the jewelry.
But they didn't leave right away; instead, their gaze settled on a few of the girls present. Visit Мy Virtuаl Librаry Еmpirе (МV-LЕМР-YR) fоr mоrе.
"These few chicks are nice, bring them back to present to the boss!"
The thugs immediately moved towards the girls who were particularly attractive.
The girls immediately showed signs of terror but dared not resist.
Actually, the girls attending today's banquet, whether in terms of looks or figure, were not lacking.
Dressed in gowns and carefully styled, they were like a collection of beautiful birds, incredibly charming.
Yet now, it turned into their nightmare—they blamed themselves, why did they dress so revealingly?
Of course, the most attractive among them were Lin Xi and Lucy.
One representing Eastern beauty, the other Western beauty.
Lucy had already been taken out, crying with tears streaming down her face.
Lin Xi was temporarily safe because Su Chen blocked her.
But ultimately, she could not escape.
"You, step out!" The leader, an American man, ordered Lin Xi.
