Lu Lingxiao took a wineglass, at the same time, he also took out his cell phone.
Sure enough, the top news alert was about the murder case in the city.
He poured wine into his glass while swiftly browsing the news on his phone.
The killer hadn't been found yet, the report warned citizens to be cautious about their personal safety at night, particularly single women.
The pouring of Lu Lingxiao's wine slowed.
Li Cheng and a few hostesses were still cracking harmless jokes, and the private room gradually buzzed with activity.
But not long after, Lu Lingxiao got up and picked up his suit.
Li Cheng asked, "Mr. Lu, are you leaving?"
Lu Lingxiao looked at Li Cheng and said in a deep voice, "I just remembered, I have some matters to take care of, I'll be going now."
Li Cheng had organized this gathering to facilitate business cooperation with Lu Lingxiao.
