Mr. Xu's villa is very large, the area of the living room is more than 100 square meters, for the banquet of the day, the center of the living room is specially vacated, the living room is full of flowers on both sides, and there is a buffet form dining table in the middle, on which are placed all kinds of delicacies and precious wines, which are convenient for guests and friends to enjoy at any time.
On that day, Xu Wenbo looked very energetic, his expensive suit and short spiritual hair set off his not tall figure very heroic, coupled with his shining confident eyes, he became a well-deserved host at that family-style dinner.
His girlfriend Ling Wei was wearing a silver-white fishtail dress with a shiny light that night, her hair was held high behind her head, and her face was covered with light and appropriate makeup, looking very bewitching and beautiful.
Ling Wei was obviously the hostess of this dinner, she greeted the guests in a proper manner, and I also received her warm and thoughtful hospitality after I entered, because I rarely participated in this kind of banquet before, and I was still a little flattered and overwhelmed for a while.
I have hardly seen those guests, so I have been standing with our department manager and his girlfriend at the beginning to greet each other, after all, they are acquaintances, during which Mr. Xu came to greet us politely, and then greeted other guests.
Unexpectedly, not long after I arrived, Xu Xinnuo and her husband Liang Yongchen actually arrived, and they were also present with Li Wanxiang, the boss of the furniture company.
I didn't expect to meet Xu Xinxu and his wife and that Li Wanxiang on this occasion, and I couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Xu Xinnuo and Li Wanxiang came over to say hello to me, and then Liang Yongchen and Li Wanxiang went to greet other guests, and Xu Xinnuo stood and chatted with me casually.
I asked Xu Xinnuo, "Why are you here today?" Are you familiar with our company's President Xu?"
Xu Xinnuo stood there, sipping red wine elegantly, and smiled faintly at me: "Ahem, it's all Yongchen's usual relationship, everyone in the shopping mall, everyone wants to have one more friend, this kind of occasion is to get closer to each other, so of course I won't shirk it if I can participate." ”
I also smiled faintly, looking at Xu Xinnuo, who was wearing a bright green fashionable skirt today, and the beautiful hair she had just done, and felt that this outfit was very suitable for her, and made her temperament more elegant and noble.
Looking around at myself all over the body, I don't know why I always feel that there is such an earthy smell, and this kind of feeling is incompatible with this kind of field.
Seeing my thoughts, Xu Xinyu looked my dress up and down, and then nodded lightly and said to me: "This dress suits you very well, it's beautiful." ”
I smiled helplessly, gently pushed her, and whispered to her: "Come on, don't lift me up, I wear everything like that, and I can't get on a big stage." ”
Xu Xinnuo glared at me and said to me in a matter-of-fact manner, "What I said is true. Then she pulled my hair and praised me with a smile, "This hairstyle is also very suitable for you, with this dress, it looks very energetic." ”
I'm embarrassed to let her say this, in fact, in order to be able to come to this banquet today, I went to the hairdresser to get my hair done, and I also applied a thin layer of powder to my not too white skin, and put on a light makeup, just to prevent others from looking too shabby and embarrassing Orin Advertising Agency.
Seeing Xu Xinyu looking at me vigorously, I explained to her with some embarrassment: "This dress was bought by Hai Jing for me." ”
Xu Xinnuo nodded while tasting the wine: "I said, how did you become so discerning?" Hai Jing, that big beauty embryo, of course, that vision does not need to be mentioned, the clothes you choose are all styled, this dress is just like it is tailor-made for you, it fits very well. ”
I smiled shyly, and then we chatted a few more words, and later, Xu Xinnuo pulled me by the corner of my clothes, pulled me to a secluded terrace, and then whispered in my ear: "Actually, Yongchen and I know that you are coming to this banquet today. ”
I asked her a little puzzled, "How do you know?" After all, I am not an important employee of the company, and I was invited to participate temporarily, I don't know how Xu Xinnuo and Liang Yongchen, who are compared to ghosts, got the news.
Xu Xinnuo smiled at me helplessly, and said lightly: "You don't care about this, anyway, we know that you are coming, so we came with Li Wanxiang to create an opportunity for you to get along!"
I looked at Xu Xinnuo's serious face, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "What? You guys are really ......."
Xu Xinnuo pulled me over, interrupted my words, and whispered in my ear: "Don't talk so much nonsense first, anyway, that Li Wanxiang will come over to talk to you in a while, you can chat with him first, just follow what I told you before, if you can't be a husband and wife, it's good to be an ordinary friend." ”
Seeing that my expression was still a little hesitant, Xu Xinnuo pushed me hard, frowned slightly and lowered his voice to me: "Ouch, don't be so petty, people didn't say what to do with you, just look at it with the attitude of making friends first." ”
Xu Xinnuo has said everything to this extent, and I can't push myself anymore, so I have to nod helplessly.
Later, Xu Xinnuo and I straightened our hairstyles and dresses on the quiet terrace, and then walked back to the dinner party as if nothing had happened.
Sure enough, as Xu Xinhe said, we had just walked into the venue for a while, and that Li Wanxiang walked over to us.
He first smiled kindly and exchanged a few words with us, and then at this time, Liang Yongchen suddenly greeted Xu Xinnuo, Xu Xinnuo smiled apologetically at us while agreeing, and then walked in the direction of Liang Yongchen.
Next, there were only two people, me and Li Wanxiang, we first stood awkwardly for a while, and then Li Wanxiang smiled gently at me and whispered to me, "Let's find a place to sit for a while, shall we?"
I thought that this suggestion would be better than standing here as stupidly as a wooden stake, so I smiled at him and agreed.
Li Wanxiang led me to a large terrace on the left side of the large living room, where there were many white chairs for guests to rest, and some fruits were placed on the table for guests to taste.
Li Wanxiang smiled and said to me: "It's also very pleasant to sit here and blow the wind for a while." ”
I smiled coyly at him, and then we sat down on two round chairs next to us.
Li Wanxiang ordered drinks for me and him, and after the waiter left, we started chatting with each other.
He mainly asked me about my family situation, and I told him the truth, telling him the specific situation I am now, and Li Wanxiang has been listening very carefully during this process, and he keeps nodding.
When I was done, he said to me, "Have you given you a rough description of my family situation?"
I nodded at him a little embarrassed and whispered, "Yes, she said it roughly." ”
Li Wanxiang smiled kindly, and then said to me gently: "The situation is roughly like that, my wife passed away due to illness a few years ago. Now, my daughter is married, and I have a child, I am about to become a grandfather, my son also has a favorite candidate, the wedding date is also approaching, I am now alone, and the company is gradually letting go of my son, so I can be said to have nothing to do, and the days to come are to enjoy life. ”
When Li Wanxiang said this, his body leaned slightly on the chair, his demeanor seemed very generous, and his gaze at me also seemed very gentle, and he did have the demeanor of a mature man of his age.
I smiled faintly at him, but I didn't know what to say.
Then Li Wanxiang asked me again: "I heard Xiao Xu say that you cherish your career very much, and you are not ready to give up even if you remarry, right?"
I didn't expect him to mention this topic, I was slightly surprised, and then nodded affirmatively to him, and said softly: "I think that a mature woman, only if she has always had her own career, can her life be rushed, and she will not be decoupled from society." ”
Li Wanxiang nodded thoughtfully and said softly, "That's the same." ”
That night, I talked a lot with Li Wanxiang, mainly to roughly introduce each other's current situation and previous experience, it seems that he really wants to find a lover, to be honest, after really sitting down and contacting him, I don't dislike him, after all, he is also a person who came over with strong winds and waves, and his bearing is very calm, although he is a little older, but because he has been insisting on sports, he seems younger than his actual age, and the eighteen-year-old age gap does not seem to be inconsistent with the two of us.
I understand why Xu Xinyu wants to introduce me to this Li Wanxiang, this is indeed a very attractive man, when you get along with him, he has a fatherly and brotherly love and care for you, and there are few women who don't like this feeling of being taken care of and cared for, so I slowly accepted him unconsciously, and changed some of my previous thoughts.
Anyway, I had a good chat with Li Wanxiang that night, I know that Li Wanxiang actually wants to find a woman who is willing to stay at home full-time to be his other half, after all, this way the time is freer, but I am not willing to give up my career, he didn't say anything, and repeatedly said that he also thinks that career-minded women are actually very respectable.
Just as we were chatting, I suddenly heard a commotion in the living room, I accidentally glanced at it, and saw Mr. Xu walking up to a person, and while greeting him, he said loudly to that person: "Ouch, Yaze, you are late today, you should be punished with three glasses of wine." ”
Hearing the word "Yaze", my expression changed greatly, and then I looked up at them, but I saw the familiar figure standing in front of Xu Wenbo, which was indeed Zhou Yaze.
Compared with Mr. Xu's exaggerated expression, Zhou Yaze's expression was much more restrained, and he explained to Mr. Xu with a little apology: "I'm sorry, the company happened to have an important American customer when I went out, so I chatted with him for a while, I'm late, I'm sorry." ”
Zhou Yaze said, his gaze unconsciously glanced at us.
