Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 964 - 961: Huh, Why Did the Lights Go Out?
Seaview Bay was exclusively reserved by New City, producing the effect Xiao Qing desired. However, when Lu Xinyun asked Xiao Qing what the effect was, Xiao Qing mysteriously said that she would know in due time.
The two walked side by side on the red carpet, with a few scattered people around them. Just as Lu Xinyun was complaining about how much time those people spent styling themselves, suddenly, all the lights in the hall and on the lawn outside dimmed.
The guests buzzed in astonishment, completely unaware of what was happening. At this moment, a spotlight slowly illuminated the man and woman who had just finished walking the red carpet and were about to enter the hall, yet the couple continued moving forward, unaware of being in the spotlight.
Lu Xinyun was wearing a slit long gown, the hem split up to above the knee. The tight-fitting black dress accentuated her voluptuous figure, its hem adorned with fine ruffles that gently swayed with her steps, reflecting the light like shimmering ripples on dark water.
With her movements, the contrast between her fair skin and the black dress created a visual feast.
The man accompanying her resembled an elegant prince at her side, walking at an unhurried pace. On closer inspection, you would notice that the man’s steps occasionally slowed, only to continue at a normal speed once the woman beside him caught up with him.
"Huh, why did the lights go out?" She twisted her ankle uncomfortably and muttered softly, "I should have worn flat shoes; I can’t see the road ahead, and if I twist my ankle, it’s all over."
Hearing her words, Nangong Xuan found it amusing, "Take a closer look at your feet."
Lu Xinyun adjusted the mask on her face and looked down to see a beam of light in front of her. She curiously took a step forward, only to find the beam of light moving along with her. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
"Huh?"
She looked at Nangong Xuan, "What is this...?"
"As long as there’s light, you can walk. If you don’t move now, you might lose the light soon."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xinyun immediately moved forward. Focused on her feet, she did not notice Nangong Xuan watching her thoughtfully.
Meanwhile, those who noticed the perfect pair outside were already abuzz.
"When did New City get these top-tier artists? Why wasn’t I informed?"
"What artists? Today, everyone entering is a mix of agents and artists."
At those words, someone fell silent.
The two people on the red carpet, neither of them looked like an agent, be it in appearance or aura.
Someone quietly remarked, "I thought no one could surpass our president’s grace back in the day, but now..." He didn’t continue.
"Exactly, but I don’t remember any female star in our circle with such a great figure. Are we sure she’s from our company?"
Nowadays, female artists starve themselves to maintain figures, becoming as thin as a stick, devoid of beauty. While they look stunning on screen, in reality, they seem a bit overdone.
At this moment, Lu Xinyun and Nangong Xuan arrived at the door, and just as they were about to step into the hall, all the lights inside suddenly turned on.
Lu Xinyun let out a sigh of relief; fortunately, the lights were on as they entered, or she would have made a fool of herself.
She was about to speak to Nangong Xuan but saw him gesture for silence. Puzzled, he leaned in to whisper in her ear, "Speaking will reveal your identity."
She realized, and gave him a smile.
