Chapter 34: Chapter 34 Why Don’t You Look at People with Your Eyes?

"Secretary Ding, I..."

Zhuang Shuqing wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Secretary Ding.

"This is also Mr. Gu’s intention. Get yourself ready, your main task today is to find out the identity of the engagement party’s principal figures, got it?"

Secretary Ding said this because there were very few people with the capability to hold an engagement party at Seaview Bay, and if one could get the inside story first, that was success.

Zhuang Shuqing saw that there was no room for refusal and braced herself to say, "Okay."

"That’s good. You can go get ready now. Pick out a nice dress, and the company will reimburse you when you get back."

"Wow~ Secretary Ding, when did we ever get such good treatment before?"

"Right..."

With one glance from Secretary Ding, "Were you all attending an engagement banquet?"

As soon as the words fell, those who had just voiced objections instantly wilted. However, they were all seasoned reporters and naturally would not fuss over such matters, instead, they sincerely offered Zhuang Shuqing advice, making her stiffly thank each one of them.

As the sky gradually darkened, Zhuang Shuqing took a taxi to Seaview Bay, her second time here~

Thinking of what had happened here the first time, her breath became somewhat unstable. It took a long time for her to take deep breaths before she ventured inside while teetering on ten-centimeter heels.

She was dressed in a sky-blue long gown tonight, her delicate face beautifully enhanced by the blue. Her jet-black hair naturally cascaded down her back, adding a few more touches of feminine charm.

A white belt was wrapped around her waist, the diamonds on it sparkling so brightly it was hard to keep one’s eyes open.

This was the dress that Secretary Ding had someone find for her. Seeing the diamonds, she assumed without thinking that they were fake, as this dress was, to her, merely a "prop."

Remembering the incident when she was bumped into by a waiter last time, she deliberately picked a spot close to the entrance so she could see the main characters as soon as they came in.

A black Rolls-Royce slowly drove through the entrance of the banquet hall, and Zhuang Shuqing couldn’t help but exclaim at the person’s clout, actually driving their car right up to the place.

"Major Lu has arrived, quick, everyone make way!"

Someone cried out, and then Zhuang Shuqing really saw the once crowded crowd automatically step aside, leaving the middle of the red carpet clear.

"I never thought I’d see Major Lu twice in such a short time."

"Right, before, it was all just hearing his name and never seeing him..."

Zhuang Shuqing frowned upon hearing the conversation of the two women behind her.

Major Lu?

That’s right, she had read in the newspaper a few days ago that he was getting engaged to Tan Biyang. Could it be that the ones getting engaged tonight were them?

Thinking of how Tan Biyang was marrying an Imperial Major, Zhuang Shuqing felt indignation. With all the talk about Major Lu’s prowess, why couldn’t he be discerning with people?

As she pondered, a tall and slim man came in, walking step by step on the red carpet. His posture was upright, and he exuded a commanding presence that seemed to look down upon the world.

Zhuang Shuqing was stunned when she saw his face clearly!

Major Lu, Major Lu...

Before she could regain her composure, Tan Biyang, dressed in a floor-length gown, entered, following the man at a leisurely pace. Her eyes unblinkingly fixed on the man and woman on the red carpet, it felt like an eternity had passed before she slowly withdrew her gaze.

How could she not have realized that the Major Lu from the military was the youngest Major Lu from the Lu Family of the Empire!

Zhuang Shuqing thought this was probably the darkest part of her life.

She watched Tan Biyang stand gracefully beside Lu Jinyang, her mind filled with myriad thoughts, yet she couldn’t grasp a single one.

At this moment, the two stood on a temporarily erected platform, one expressionless, the other’s smile blooming like flowers.
