As promised, he arrived at 6 sharp. So I opened the door. Yes, Mu Kai stood there staring at me and taking in a sharp breath.
The butterflies in my stomach started to flutter, and my heart started racing as I looked at him in his black tuxedo.
"Were you afraid that I'd get mugged between my doors to your car, Mr. Mu?" I smirked.
"Very funny Wen Wen," he said.
Actually, I was surprised that he came to the door himself instead of sending Gu Min up here. Then I bumped my shoulder against his, and he managed a small smile. We got into the back of his Limousine and Mu Kai poured us a glass of champagne.
"Hm. You look beautiful Wen Wen, it's nice dress." I looked at him, my stomach still fluttering and heart racing.
"Thank you, Mr. Mu. I was hoping you would like this one," I winked as he smirked and we held our glasses up to one another.
The charity was for the Syndrome Communication Foundation. It was to support the biomedical research for the causes and treatments of these abnormal in children and adults.
Once we reach, Gu Min opened my door as Mu Kai came around the other side to meet me. He held out his arm and looked at me.
"Do you think you can behave yourself tonight?" I put my arm in his and smiled.
"I don't know but I cannot make any promises." He said.
We walked to the entrance and stepped inside. The ballroom was breath taking as were the people who attended. Mu Kai led me over to a reserved table with his company's name on it. When I sat down taking notice of the pilasters around the room as well as the beautifully carved ceilings. The walls were painted in a beige colour with mahogany trim as were the chairs that sat at each table.
A band and dance floor sat in the middle of the room. Off to the side was a large wrap around bar that was complimented by the same mahogany wood and marble tops.
Mu Kai went to the bar to get our drinks. Apparently, he didn't have the patience to wait for the waitresses and waiters walking around the room with drinks on their trays. He came back with a glass of white wine for me and a scotch for himself.
Even as beautiful as the ballroom was, but for me Mu Kai was the most beautiful person there, and I could not help but stare at him. He lightly grabbed my elbow and escorted me over to a couple who were staring our way.
Even the slightest touch of his hand sent my body into convulsions.
"Good evening, Mr. Mu," the older gentleman said as he shook his hand.
"Yes, Mr. Lee. I would like you to meet Miss Ru Wen, a friend of mine." He introduced me to the elders.
He took my hand and he give a peck lightly on my hand.
"You have beautiful friends. Mr. Mu."
I gently smiled at his comment and looked over at his wife who was eyeing me up and down.
"This is my wife, Mrs. Lee," Mr. Lee smiled.
"Nice to meet you," she smiled at me.
Mrs. Lee was extremely attractive, and she was about 27 years younger than her husband. Mr. Lee put his arm around Mu Kai and walked him over to the side whispering so we could not hear. I could see Mu Kai shook his head, and the two of them came back to where we were standing.
