Chapter 94: Chapter 94 Masked Choice of Ten
The small banquet hall.
Ten chairs were placed on both sides of the temporarily set up glass T-stage.
The lights were hazy, reflecting the slightly inebriated faces of the ten guests.
Chen Cheng sat in the middle, holding a cigar gifted by Chen Jin, his gaze becoming somewhat blurred as the smoke wreathed around him.
"Ladies and gentlemen!"
The sound of Wen Shulin’s voice was as melodious as a nightingale, her cheeks flushed with a light touch of red from the wine, adding a seductive charm.
She gracefully walked onto the T-stage, and with a wave of her hand, it was as if she was leading everyone into an enchanted world.
"This is the finale of tonight, and I hope everyone will enjoy it."
Wen Shulin smiled as she walked down the T-stage, gently sitting next to Chen Cheng.
As the music of Jiangnan Water Town slowly began to play, the lights on both sides of the T-stage started to change, creating an atmosphere like a dream.
Chen Cheng squinted slightly, looking toward the entrance of the T-stage.
Ten beautiful ladies came walking slowly in, their figures and curves accentuated by their gorgeous cheongsams.
With their hands, they gently waved silk fans embroidered with floral patterns, sketching out the charm of an ink painting.
In this group of beauties, Liu Zhiya was particularly eye-catching.
Her deep red cheongsam was as passionate as fire yet retained a subtle grace, with her seductive brows exuding tender sensuality.
"Chairman Wen’s ingenious idea is truly admirable!" Wang Xinan lounged back in his chair, one leg crossed over the other, his hand resting on the back of the chair flicking off ash, and exclaimed, "Is this a little dessert after the meal?"
Wen Shulin smiled faintly, with everything under her control, "This is just an appetizer, the real highlight is yet to come."
Hearing this, the others could not help but raise their eyebrows.
As the music changed, the lights also dimmed.
In the pitch-black room, only four or five sparkling embers flickered, mirroring the anticipation in everyone’s hearts.
Thump!
The lights suddenly brightened, and the magnificent stage erupted with the beat of dynamic music.
The ten beautiful ladies stepped onto the T-stage once more.
But this time, they had changed into Victoria’s Secret’s latest collection of the year.
The vivid colors, exquisite tailoring, and bold details, all shone brilliantly under the stage lights.
The occasional coy glance they cast at the audience was seductive, with the sheer fabric outlining their figures, captivating the imagination...
Underneath the tall stiletto heels was a pace that kept time with the rhythm.
And not only did they step to the beat—they also stepped into the hearts of everyone present.
"Mr. Chen, what do you think of my arrangements for tonight?" Wen Shulin asked, turning to face Chen Cheng.
Breathing in the light fragrance of wine, Chen Cheng spoke his first words of the morning, "Miss Wen’s selections are indeed top-class."
"And what about the audience?" Wen Shulin teased with a flip of her hair and a laugh.
Chen Cheng laughed heartily: "They must all be third-rate."
Wen Shulin covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, "Mr. Chen is always so witty!"
Li Bo then leaned in, "Chairman Wen, your event is getting better and better. But this tantalizing approach, it’s like scratching an itch through a shoe—it’s tough to handle!"
He, too, saw the girl who had been with him for the day on the stage.
Wen Shulin smiled faintly, "President Li, please be patient! The next act is the main event of the evening!"
As the music shifted again, the fashion show continued round after round.
From cheongsams to Victoria’s Secret, from evening gowns to casual attire, Wen Shulin seemed to have transported the scene of a model competition right into this small banquet hall.
But this time, there were no judges and no scores.
What they had, was only a surprise prepared for Chen Cheng, a champion’s treat. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
The light dimmed for a long while.
People on both sides of the runway had been waiting for quite some time.
Miss Wen said in the dark, "Ladies and gentlemen, what comes next is a special bonus. A Texas Hold’em championship surprise from Mr. Chen, please enjoy."
As her words ended, the music gradually became more enchanting and lingering.
The ambiguous light slowly cascaded down onto the runway again, illuminating the ten beauties wearing leather Batman masks.
They only revealed a pair of bright eyes and tempting red lips, with black silk shawls draped over their bodies, complemented by vintage wolfod suspenders and unified red-soled CL high heels, which made it difficult to distinguish between them, as they were all of similar height.
But then again, this was very much in line with Shulin’s usual style.
The nine gentlemen involuntarily swallowed hard, their gazes sharpening and heating up at this moment.
It can only be said that Wen Shulin knew men too well.
After a round of display, they all came to a halt in front of Chen Cheng who sat at the center.
At this time, Shulin stood up, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mr. Chen’s championship surprise."
The five people behind her also approached to examine this unexpected gift.
"Mr. Chen, now is the time to show your skills," Shulin said with a smile. She turned to the side, pointing to the ten beauties behind her,
"First, you need to find the one who will accompany you for a day from among them."
These words instantly ignited the competitive desire in the men’s hearts.
Chen Cheng stood up, looking at the ten identical women in front of him, and for a moment, he too was at a loss.
Each one looked as if they were carved from the same mold, with no difference in height, dress, posture, or demeanor.
"Go for it, Mr. Chen!"
The bystanders teased.
Chen Cheng squinted his eyes slightly, trying to find clues beneath those Batman-masked faces, but it was futile.
He turned towards Wen Shulin, a playful smile on his lips, "Miss Wen, this time you’ve really given me quite the challenge."
Shulin chuckled lightly, hands crossed over her chest, "Mr. Chen, I have seen your wit and courage. I trust that this is just a small challenge for you."
Chen Cheng raised his eyebrows, his gaze once again sweeping over the row of poplars.
After a moment, he saw that look.
It was her, thrilled and excited at the poker table.
Although like the other girls, most of her face was hidden by the Batman mask.
But there was a light in her eyes.
Chen Cheng pointed, "Her."
"So sure?" Zhao Liangyou laughed, "Mr. Chen, don’t you want to look again?"
"I’m very accurate at judging people," Chen Cheng replied confidently.
Shulin nodded slightly, speaking to Chen Cheng, "Mr. Chen, you can go try. If you’ve found the right person, she will give you her hand."
Chen Cheng placed his half-smoked cigar in the ashtray.
He stepped onto the runway and approached the girl.
All eyes were on Chen Cheng, and these business tycoons, who often churn waves in the business world, seemed to enjoy this adrenaline-surging scene more than participating themselves.
Chen Cheng extended his hand, "All in?"
The girl hesitated for a moment but then showed a sweet smile and placed her hand in Chen Cheng’s.
Seeing this, Shulin clapped her hands, "Congratulations, Mr. Chen. You’ve found your championship surprise."
As Shulin’s words ended, the lights on the runway changed once more, and the music became festive.
The other nine girls formed a circle around Liu Zhiya and Chen Cheng, all clapping.
And Liu Zhiya, still hanging on to Chen Cheng’s arm, with her masked face, revealed a radiant smile.
"Miss Wen, you always have some unexpected surprises."
Shulin’s mouth curved in a smile, "Mr. Chen, tonight belongs to you, enjoy it!"
