Chapter 11: The Birthday Party
"Hmph! What I am now is what I have earned back by myself, and it has nothing to do with the Bai family! Bai Lu, you better get out of here quickly! I advise you not to appear in front of us again! What I said is definitely not a joke!" Bai Lu was shocked by his eyes, and suddenly remembered what he had just said, and didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to leave in a hurry with his bag.
Bai Qingqing looked at Bai Lu's back, his face full of complexity. She turned her head and asked, "Why did you suddenly appear here?" Zhao Changqing took out two invitations from his hands as if by magic.
Handed it to Bai Qingqing.
"What is this?" Bai Qingqing muttered as he opened the invitation. It is an invitation to a birthday party.
The protagonist is Bai Qingqing's college classmate and friend. Recently, she celebrated her twenty-fifth birthday and threw a party to bring some of her old friends together.
"It's Tong Li!" Bai Qingqing sighed a little, the two hadn't seen each other since college. Although there are frequent phone calls, because the two of them are too busy with work, they don't have the time to see each other.
It's rare that she still remembers herself. learned that he was married, and even sent Zhao Changqing's invitation letter over.
"I didn't expect even me to have an invitation! What a surprise! But that's what I came to you to talk about. I was going on a business trip that day, so I couldn't go with you. If you can make it that day, I'll pick you up, and if you can't, you'll have the driver pick you up. It just so happened that the city where Zhao Changqing was on a business trip was the city where Tong Li was located, but because he really couldn't spare time, he could only let Bai Qingqing go alone.
But you still have to be ready for gifts or something!
"Okay! I'll tell Lily about that. She's so nice, she'll understand!"
A few days later, Bai Qingqing and Zhao Changqing went to S City together. It's just that the two of them got off the plane and were busy with each other, and they didn't even say goodbye.
Zhao Changqing still wants to go to the birthday party in his heart, he hasn't been so lively for a long time. When Bai Qingqing arrived, many people had already arrived, and everyone was surprised to look at the beautiful, moving, generous and elegant Bai Qingqing.
Men's eyes are full of admiration and praise, while most of women are also envious and jealous. Not everyone has a good family background and natural beauty.
Tong Li happily walked over and took Bai Qingqing's hand, and the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Tong Li remembered that she seemed to have invited her husband.
I have long heard that Bai Qingqing is married, and I don't know what kind of person the other party is. Tong Li looked at Bai Qingqing's side, but didn't see the person she wanted to see, so she asked Bai Qingqing,
"Eh, didn't I invite your husband, why didn't you see him?!" Bai Qingqing maintained a perfect smile and said gently, "Originally, he was very happy to come to your birthday party." But it's really unfortunate, he's been too busy these days, and the company really can't leave. So he asked me to help bring the birthday gift, and he asked me to say sorry to you. I'm really embarrassed!Lily!" Tong Li was a little disappointed, she originally wanted to see Bai Qingqing's husband to see if her good friend was happy.
But since I didn't come, forget it, I'll always have a chance to see it in the future. She happily took Bai Qingqing's arm and said indifferently, "It's okay! Since he has a job, let's go to work first! I didn't expect your husband to have his own company! It seems that the development has been good in the past few years!" She remembered hearing someone say that Bai Qingqing's husband was just from an ordinary background.
I didn't expect that now I have my own career, and my friend really didn't see the wrong person! Bai Qingqing smiled modestly, waved his hand and said, "It's nothing! He just opened a small company." Business has been doing a bit lately, so I'm busy. I've been at home for a long time, but I was going to introduce you two to each other. But what a pity!"
"It's a pity! It's not that I can't see him! Besides, I want to see him only because of you, seeing you live so happily and smile so sweetly. I knew you had met the right person!
"Lily......" Bai Qingqing looked at her movingly, although they didn't meet often, the friendship between them never became rusty because of the distance.
Every time they met, it was as if they had never left each other. Time has never distanced them.
After the feast began, the young men and women began to revel. According to the process, after Tong Li finished her birthday thoughts, everyone would come forward to give her birthday gifts.
Bai Qingqing handed her two gifts in his hand, and then hugged her with a smile.
"Happy birthday! Lily! I hope you are always happy and happy!"
"Thank you Qingqing!" Tong Li happily accepted her blessing. After that, many other people offered their blessings to today's birthday star.
After this process, the prom begins. This is a program specially arranged by Tong Li, she usually likes to dance the most, in such an important and happy day, of course, she has to have fun!
Bai Qingqing didn't end up dancing because he drank too much wine. Instead, he sat quietly and watched the people on the dance floor.
Just as she was looking at the rise, a hand reached out in front of her. Bai Qingqing looked up at the hand, and a somewhat familiar face reflected in her eyes.
"Long time no see! I don't know if it's inconvenient for Fang to dance with me?" Bai Qingqing frowned, her mind was a little confused now, but it was not to the point of being unconscious.
But she couldn't remember who the person in front of her was, and what his name was. It's just that his face is very familiar, and she can't remember who it is for a while.
Bai Qingqing didn't respond for a long time, and the man's outstretched hand kept stopping there, which was very embarrassing.
"Why don't you even want to appreciate this face, Miss Bai!" the man's tone was marked with some obvious sneer.
Let Bai Qingqing dislike it very much. This man feels a little self-righteous!
"I'm sorry. I don't want to dance right now. You can go to someone else. Bai Qingqing thought that she had clearly expressed what she meant.
But the hand in front of him had no intention of withdrawing it at all.
"Come on, I see you've been sitting here. Are you waiting for someone else?Or is there the prey you want on the field?" Bai Qingqing's eyes instantly turned cold, and he looked straight at the man in front of him.
"What's your name?
"Huh?!" the man looked at her in disbelief. It was as if she had uttered something unforgivable.
The man's face flushed red in an instant, and a thin layer of red attached to his neck was attached to it. And the green tendons on it burst out, and Bai Qingqing subconsciously leaned back a little.
She was worried about what the man was doing in a fit of rage. But what she feared didn't happen.
The man took a deep breath and restrained himself into a fairly gentle smile. However, in Bai Qingqing's opinion, it seemed a little reluctant.
It's better not to laugh, because it's uglier......
"Qingqing, you're really joking! I'm Shao Jie!" "Shao Jie?" Bai Qingqing searched desperately in his mind for a few laps before he found such a character.
She remembered that it was the third son of the Shao family. It's just that...... The elite man in front of him and Shao Jie in his memory are not at all the same, and there is not even a trace of similarity.
"Are you...... Shao Jie?" Shao Jie withdrew his finger and looked at her arrogantly. Enjoying her surprised gaze.
"That's right, it's me!" Shao Jie in Bai Qingqing's memory was a big fat man who was a little greasy. Although he has fair skin and a delicate appearance.
But he doesn't know what's going on, and always likes to nibble on a chicken leg in his hand. But......
"I remember we were high school classmates!, why did you come to Tong Li's birthday party?" Shao Jie smiled,
"I recently had some business to discuss with Uncle Tong, and it just so happened that Tong Li and I were classmates in elementary school, so she invited me as well. But you know what?" he slowly approached Bai Qingqing and said ambiguously,
"I heard you were here, so I came. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to such a noisy occasion! I'm not very interested. But except for you. Bai Qingqing elegantly picked up the champagne next to him and blocked it between the two.
And it was at this distance that brought the champagne close to his face. Shao Jie didn't want his facial features to stick to the glass, so he had to retreat.
When she retreated to a distance that Bai Qingqing felt was okay, she removed the champagne. looked at Shao Jie and said slowly: "Then I really have a big face!!, but if the next time you encounter this kind of thing, you can do what you want, don't think about me." After all, we're just high school classmates, and we don't deserve it. Listening to such words that were obviously dissociating the relationship, Shao Jie was not angry, but sat beside her.
Keep your eyes on the dance floor not far away.
"I heard you're married. Bai Qingqing's eyes moved slightly, and he didn't speak. Shao Jie chuckled,
"I heard that your husband is not in good health?! If it were me, I wouldn't have let you work so hard. "Shao Jie also knows some about the rumors of Bai Qingqing's marriage.
I heard that the other party was a poor and wasteful cripple. However, it is said that he has recently opened a company. Shao Jie wanted to laugh, he really wanted to find a rich woman to struggle for ten years!
What's more, this rich woman is a white rich beauty, I really don't know where that cripple got such good luck!
He has always had a crush on Bai Qingqing since he was in high school, but at that time, Bai Qingqing's family was powerful and in the limelight.
And Bai Qingqing himself is beautiful and good at studying. Out of a certain inferiority complex, Shao Jie has never dared to confess to her.
I only dare to like her silently in my heart. But now it's different, after so many years of change.
He is completely different from the fat man with low self-esteem and ugliness in high school. Now he is qualified to say his heart to Bai Qingqing.
The most important thing is that he heard that Bai Qingqing has been supporting the entire Bai Group alone since her father left.
Her husband was so incompetent that he certainly couldn't help her, but he was different. His Shao family is also developing well now, if he proposes that the two of them be together, he can also help Bai Qingqing manage the company together at that time.
