Chapter 1671: Chapter 580: Regrets of Time, Helplessness of Reality

The night was deep, and the lights on both sides of Victoria Harbour were as dazzling as a river of stars.

The bustling crowd flowed like shadows and light, silently passing by them as the surrounding noise seemed isolated outside.

Tang Song’s fingers gently brushed the warm nape of her neck, feeling the breath between Shen Yuyan’s lips, studying this face that was both familiar and strange.

He couldn’t help but apply a bit more pressure, accompanied by Shen Yuyan’s low ”hum,” prying open her teeth.

An unprecedented, strange heartbeat mixed with conquest and unsettlement slowly exploded in his mind.

Then their lips parted.

Shen Yuyan gently took half a step back.

She didn’t immediately look at Tang Song; she just turned her face away and let out a chuckle tinged with self-mockery.

Then she lowered her head to tidy her windblown hair and casually tugged her shirt forward to cover the snow-white of her chest.

After a moment, she spoke in a relaxed tone as if nothing had happened, ”Uh... that was my first kiss, snatched away by you just like that. But anyway, a bet is a bet, and I, Shen Yuyan, accept it.”

Tang Song looked at her, the corners of his mouth lifting, ”You do stick to the rules.”

Shen Yuyan’s eyes stayed steady, ”Of course, we agreed on one kiss, so one kiss it is, no more, no less.”

”Really?”

”Yes.” Shen Yuyan stood on her tiptoes and softly said, ”By the way, let’s agree first, you absolutely can’t tell Qingqing about our little ’bet’ tonight.”

Her tone was like a playful tease, yet it also drew boundaries.

Coupled with her particularly enchanting eyes at this moment, it was an ultimate pull.

Their gaze tangled in the humid air for a moment, Tang Song’s Adam’s apple moved, ”Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

In his heart, though, he silently felt unfair for his cosplayer girlfriend.

School Beauty Shen, oh School Beauty Shen! This is your best friend of over ten years!

Yet you’ve turned her into a wingwoman!

Watch how I’ll reprimand you later!

Shen Yuyan gave a light laugh, playfully winked at him, and then suddenly turned to stride forward.

”We haven’t checked out the Avenue of Stars yet, better take more photos later, or the trip would be wasted.”

She didn’t look back, only waved her hand with her back to him.

Tang Song stood where he was, watching her slender silhouette fade in and out among the crowd.

For a moment, it was like seeing the endless chance encounters on the university campus.

It was in a wooded path, brushing past her laughing with classmates;

It was in the bustling cafeteria, a startling glimpse when she turned back with her tray;

It was in the quiet teaching building, a heart-stopping heartbeat when meeting her head-on in the empty hallway.

Although he had regained many once-lost memory fragments, for Tang Song, there were still many moments in his college days worth savoring repeatedly.

Youth, really, it happens once and only once.

Back then, a group of similarly aged classmates gathered around, talking about games, commenting on school beauties, debating shows and films...

Everyone was full of exuberant energy, brimming with endless expectations for the future and the purest longings for the opposite sex.

Whether it was the spirited School Beauty Shen Yuyan or the adorably cute cosplayer Xu Qing, they were all part of it.

...

At the Rosewood Hotel, at the LVMH Asia-Pacific Elite Gathering.

In the banquet hall, the overhead lights were soft yet dazzling, and limited edition art paintings from LVMH’s collection were hung on the walls.

The minimalist French lines and champagne gold tones interwove, creating an atmosphere of subtle luxury.

The amber liquid in the champagne flutes shimmered with delicate bubbles rising slowly.

On the long table, meticulously customized cold appetizers by a Michelin three-star chef were displayed.

Lin Muxue held a wine glass, her makeup exquisite, red lips icy and alluring.

She wore a Louis Vuitton haute couture backless floor-length evening dress, with her chest adorned with slightly sparkling sequins, glimmering as she walked.

”Ding~~”

The champagne glasses clinked gently, the sound crisp and pleasing.

”Miss Lin, I’ve long heard of Rongliu Capital, I’ve heard your company’s layout in technology and consumer fields in recent years is extremely forward-looking. A senior officer like you, with both a financial background and aesthetic vision, is truly rare.” LVMH Asia President Vincent smiled broadly, his tone sincere and courteous.

Lin Muxue wore a proper smile, her tone gentle, ”You flatter me, LVMH not only represents the peak standard of luxury goods but is also the leader of contemporary lifestyle and cultural taste. Being here tonight exchanging ideas with you all is truly rewarding.”

With a deep understanding of luxury goods and cramming in fashion circle knowledge.

Lin Muxue’s performance was poised and responded with ease.

When she inadvertently showed interest in the brand advisory panel, Vincent immediately extended an invitation in response.

Lin Muxue gently smiled, lightly raising her glass to clink his, ”If there’s a chance for collaboration, I’d be delighted to participate.”

”Alright, we’ll contact you afterward.”

Vincent nodded, the two exchanged a few pleasantries and swapped contacts.

The atmosphere was just right.

As Vincent just left, a few other attendees proactively approached, offering their business cards in a warm tone.

Lin Muxue slightly tilted her head, feeling a bit elated in her heart.

At the same time, she also felt a lot of inexplicable sentiments.

This place was not what she had imagined.

The guests were not the flashy kind of ”Vanity Fair” she had anticipated.

Nobody flaunted luxury watches, and barely anyone talked about entertainment gossip.

Even Xiang River and mainland celebrities, including Bei Yuwei, were merely foils.

Her outfit for tonight, prepared meticulously to the standards of a star or socialite, initially did not draw much attention.

It wasn’t until her identity as ”Chief Assistant of Rongliu Capital” was revealed that the real chemistry happened.
