Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Serene as a Flower Mirrored in Water

The banquet began punctually at six o’clock.

Dressed in a crisp suit, Lin Fan accompanied County Magistrate Luan to the event.

Once the city leaders had left, he naturally became the most senior figure remaining. Thus, he was the prime target for investors, but the attention towards Lin Fan was not any less intense. People handed him their business cards, hoping to seize the opportunity to network. Lin Fan simply maintained a smile throughout.

Since it was a cold dinner party, everyone either held a glass of red wine or champagne, milling about and sharing their insights on various upcoming inspection routes.

Taking advantage of a moment when no one was paying attention, Lin Fan quickly grabbed a champagne glass and made his way to the buffet table. He hadn’t eaten his fill at lunch with Zhu Defu, and the afternoon’s exertions with Bai Xue had left him genuinely hungry.

Thus, he grabbed several pastries and dishes and slipped away to an unobserved corner to tuck in ravenously. Just as Lin Fan was enjoying his meal, a figure in a red dress appeared before him—it was none other than the Cultural Troupe’s pillar, who performed the Peacock Dance in the city.

"Mayor Lin, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time."

The fiery red dress, destined to be the center of attention in the hall, hinted at a face as delicate and graceful as Lin Daiyu. Her fair skin seemed almost breakable by a blow, her cheeks slightly flushed like newly blossomed peach flowers, as if the Goddess herself had stepped out of a painting, mesmerizing all with her beauty.

Her shoulders were softly rounded, carrying a cool elegance, and the partial reveal of her cleavage traced appealing curves. Her pert behind suggested endless temptation, and her long hair, soft as a waterfall, fell gently upon her shoulders. Light curls at the ends added a touch of flirtatiousness, and her tall figure was even more slender in the evening dress, setting off a willowy waist that seemed as if it might break with a gentle embrace.
