Chapter 952: Nine hundred fifty, attacked
Lu Hanmo, accompanied by Luo Shu and two guards, walked into the banquet hall.
The banquet was bustling with excitement. Guests were dressed to impress, perfumed and radiant; the event was a contest not just of beauty, but of power and status as well.
When the host saw Lu Hanmo, he greeted him with an enthusiastic smile, "Chief Lu! Your presence truly honors us! This way, please!" Apart from the banquets he must attend, Lu Hanmo rarely partakes in such events. When the host sent an invitation to Lu Hanmo, he was mentally prepared for a rejection and was utterly surprised by Lu Hanmo’s attendance. It was an unexpected delight!
He led Lu Hanmo to the VIP seats, "Chief Lu! Apart from you, Commander Song will also grace us with his presence today, and will be seated at your table." As the saying goes, there’s not room for two tigers on a single mountain. Chief Lu and Commander Song sitting together would create an atmosphere that few others could withstand.
"Hmm!" Lu Hanmo nodded slightly. Although he did not like sitting with Song Xiran, he also would not request to change seats.
"Chief Lu, please take a seat! And who might this be?" Ke Weixin glanced at Luo Shu standing by Lu Hanmo’s side. He had of course noticed her already.
"I am Chief Lu’s personal physician, as well as his niece," Luo Shu said playfully, winking at Lu Hanmo.
Lu Hanmo helplessly and fondly curved his lips.
Ke Weixin shook hands with Luo Shu smiling, "It’s a pleasure to meet you!" For Chief Lu to have her by his side, he must regard her highly. After all, everyone knows that there are never women by Chief Lu’s side.
At this moment, a commotion arose at the entrance. Everyone turned to look, only to see Song Xiran walking in with a seductively dressed woman in a red gown accompanied by two guards.
In contrast to Lu Hanmo, Song Xiran was much more flamboyant, and his company never lacked women. Although many disapproved of his manners, Song Xiran continued to do as he pleased.
