Once Upon A One Night Stand

Chapter 300

Her back was facing the men's room, and her palms were soon drenched in sweat. What a terrible

sense of familiarity was this? ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Shu Tian thought she had forgotten, but now she realized that she could still remember all the details at

a glance of that man. Even if she just vaguely saw his back, it was as if they had never parted in five

years, and he was standing behind her one step away. Even if she insisted on leaving, yet as long as

she looked back at him, she wouldn't have the heart to walk away from him again.

Right now, she hid behind the door. She heard the tap of the sink turn on and the sound of someone

drawing paper to wipe hands. Then a dark shadow appeared outside the door and got closer...

She saw his black leather shoes. Looking up, she saw that he had typical black hair from the east,

black eyes, and his face could not be made out clearly under the dim light, which made her relieved.

It wasn't Li Han!

The feeling of suffocation finally eased. She then breathed a sigh of relief. And her mood swings

exhausted her. She thought it was him. Fortunately, it wasn't.

She raised her hand to her chest, trying to calm down. Yet the next second, she laughed at herself. The

world was so big. There were thousands of kilometers between England and J City, across the ocean.

How could he be here? How could he happen to be in the same bar and toilet?

This was impossible. She was being paranoid.

Yet she could not tell what she felt in her heart. Obviously, she was glad that it was not him, but there

was an inexplicable sadness mixed with it.

She must have been sentimental due to the drink. It must be!

[...]

At the small round table on the far south side of the bar next to the wall, Li Han sat down with his back

to the toilet. He picked up the glass on the table and drank it up in one gulp, regardless of how much

the liquor burned his throat.

It was his yearning for her that made him sick. Or else, how came he caught her smell in such a foreign

country? He was being absurd.

They said that he was crazy. See, it turned out that they were correct and he was not far becoming a

crazy.

He then showed a bitter smile, and could not calm down for a long time. It seemed that he could no

longer enjoy the beautiful and relaxing music here. He then waved at a waiter not far away. When the

waiter drew closer, he took out a gold card and swiped it at the POS.

"Sir, please sign here." The waiter pointed to the place where the signature was needed.

He then picked up the pen and wrote down his last name.

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. Shu Tian and her assistant Lily drove to the entrance of

the banquet together. They waited in the car for a while, and Ken and another woman also came.

"This is my former colleague Suran and her assistance Lily," he briefly introduced them to his female

companion.

Shu Tian shook hands with them politely, and then they all walked towards the security personnel at the

door. The party was of high standards, and two staff members were checking the invitations at the

door, one on the left and one right.

Ken and his female companion both had invitation. With their eloquence and acting skills, they

successfully brought Shu Tian and her assistant in.

The venue was very large, divided into two parts, indoor and outdoor. The outdoor scene was not

fancy, mainly in white, green and gold, which looked very elegant.

The waiters carried a tray with champagne and wine on it. There was always a drink that the guests

liked.

Shu Tian then picked up a glass of champagne and looked around. Shortly, she drew back her sight. It

was a pity that she did not see the senior manager of the BIT Company.

"Maybe he will show up after the party officially starts," Lily comforted her.

Shu Tian then smiled, "I'm not in a hurry. We've got a whole night to wait anyway."

Meanwhile, she didn't just sit there. She began to socialize with the people here and publicized her law

firm. It took her a lot of time.

Ten percent of the people present were Chinese. Today, she wore a light pink fishtail dress with a layer

of lace gauze on her chest. From the collar area to her waist, it was embroidered with a slightly darker

pink rhinestone. The dress in the middle of her thighs was tightened, yet below was a loose pink gauze

dress embroidered with three-dimensional petals for decoration, comfortable but not too eye-catching

in both style and color.

Many foreigners noticed her and she was only smiling back. Having been standing for a long time, and

London was still a little cold on October night, she was ready to go indoors to warm up a bit.

There was a glass door connecting the room and outside. As soon as she and Lily reached the door,

the inductive door suddenly opened. Then a group of men in suits came out. At this time, she heard

whispers and exclamations around her, because the atmosphere at the scene was instantly heightened

by the appearance of these people.

She then looked up and saw the director of the public relations department of the BIT Company. He

was over 1.8 meters tall, slender, wearing a pair of black framed glasses, and his facial features were

slightly flat. He was also Chinese.

She recalled the name on the list. His name was Wang Wei.

The excitement flashed in her eyes. But she did not disturb him directly. Instead, she waited for him to

finish greeting others and then reached out her hand. "Hello, Mr. Wang. I've heard a lot about you."

At the first glance of her, he was surprised by her beauty, then soon smiled and greeted, "Hello, miss.

You're beautiful."

Yet with a smile, she was thinking that he might feel that she was not beautiful or even looked hateful

after a while.

She then took out her business card and handed it over. It had her name and position on it, and he took

it over very gentlemanly. "You don't strike me as a legal worker."

She spread out her hands and said noncommittally, "Yes, but I have some questions to ask you. I

wonder if it's convenient for you. Can we talk in somewhere quieter?"

He felt a little surprised. Although everyone coveted beauty, but... He looked around and was puzzled.

"The environment here is so beautiful. Can't you say it here?"

She nodded and followed his gaze around the party, but soon she changed the subject. "It's fine for

me. But I'm afraid it's inconvenient for you."

"Inconvenient for me?" He became even more puzzled. "Why would I be..."

"Mr. Wang, do you know Humphry Davy?" She interrupted him softly.

As he heard that, the smile on his face froze. Davy was not a strange name to him and BIT Company.

This man was a victim in the first major industrial accident of BIT Company. Because of various

reasons and pressure, this matter had not been handled well.

And now she mentioned this on such an occasion...

When he looked at her again, this time he didn't see her as a beautiful woman, but an enemy. He then

shouted in a low voice, "Are you threatening me?"

"No." She answered without thinking, "I'm discussing it with you."

Her tone became serious. Instead of admitting it was a threat, she now was more deterrent.
