Chapter 235: If You Don't Die, You Won't Die
This time, the gathering of calligraphy lovers was organized by the friends of the "old man Wenxin", and when Chen Chen and Xu Qing passed, the others almost arrived one after another. Most of these people are a group of seventy or eighty-year-old old men and old ladies, and there are not no young people like Chen Chen and Xu Qing, but there is only one, and it is the grandson of the organizer of this party, Sima Haoran.
This Sima Haoran is a member of the Sima family, one of the four major families in the imperial capital, who looks about twenty years old, dressed in Tang costumes, and can be seen to be a young and handsome man.
Sima Haoran frowned imperceptibly, and kept greeting the visitors. Only as the young master of the Sima family, when has he ever done this kind of service work. If it weren't for Grandpa's threat of his pocket money for the next month, he wouldn't have come. These are old men and old women, and it's really boring for a young man to have fun with them.
Xu Qing deliberately wore a cotton and linen skirt today, antique, with a hair curl, and a white hosta. The whole person seems to be a beauty who came out of a Chinese painting, and the whole person exudes a faint light.
Her hand held Chen Chen, Chen Chen was dressed in a Tang suit, and he exuded the elegance of a Confucian scholar in comfort. The two look talented and beautiful, and they are very compatible.
All the old people who saw the two for the first time thought that the two were boyfriend and girlfriend.
Sima Haoran didn't expect that there was such a fresh and refined beauty here, he seemed to hear the sound of flowers blooming. Everything around him seemed to disappear, and he touched the position of his heart, "bang", "bang", and kept beating.
Love at first sight, it turned out to be this feeling.
Sima Haoran looked blankly in Xu Qing's direction, and the whole person smirked like a fool.
"Hello, this is our invitation, we are here to attend this book gathering. Xu Qing smiled gently, as indifferent as ever.
The goddess smiled at him! Sima Haoran's heart beat violently, this is the melody of love.
Sima Haoran took Xu Qing's invitation and quickly opened it. It turns out that her name is Xu Qing, which is really a good name.
"Hello, Miss Xu, welcome, I'm Sima Haoran. Nice to meet you. ”
Xu Qing was a little surprised, but out of politeness, he still stretched out his right hand and shook it with the other party.
"This is the first time I have met a young person like me at this gathering of calligraphy enthusiasts, and I was a little excited for a while. Miss Xu, don't be surprised. Sima Haoran said with a smile, only Xu Qing was in his heart, and he didn't notice the green leaves next to him at all.
Chen Chen frowned and looked at the kid in front of him, this kid didn't take him seriously. Chen Chen could see his thoughts very clearly, and subconsciously ignored the displeasure in his heart.
"Hello, Mr. Sima, this is my invitation!" Chen Chen said.
At this time, Sima Haoran noticed that the goddess did not come alone, and subconsciously accepted Chen Chen's invitation. The surname is Chen, different surnames, and the two don't seem to be related either, are they boyfriend and girlfriend?
"Miss Xu, who is this?" Sima Haoran smiled softly.
"This is my friend. Let's do it together. ”
Sima Haoran noticed that Xu Qing was talking about friends, not boyfriends and girlfriends. The difference between the two is huge, so he still has a chance.
"Hehe" laughed twice, Sima Haoran apologized to Xu Qing embarrassedly, "I thought Mr. Chen was your boyfriend?"
When Xu Qing heard this, Lian immediately became red, and waved his hand again and again to deny it. Although she really wanted to be like this, the two of them hadn't reached that point after all, and they didn't know what Chen Chen thought of her.
It's not boyfriend and girlfriend, that's good! That's good!
"Miss Xu, please wait a moment, I'll take you over. Sima Haoran said hello to the people next to him, and led Xu Qing and Chen Chen inside.
Along the way, Sima Haoran kept talking to Xu Qing, and it was the first time Xu Qing had met such an enthusiastic person, and he didn't find the other party's mind at all. Originally, she was still a little shy, but she thought that after her mother recovered, she would leave the Xiao family, so she had to try to communicate with others.
Although Sima Haoran and Xu Qing were chatting, his gaze occasionally fell on Chen Chen, looking up and down with a hint of inquiry. Although he is not as handsome as him, he is not bad. Except that he is a little older, the others are not weaker than him.
Sima Haoran felt a little threatened, I heard that many women now like uncles who are a little older than themselves, and age may not be an advantage or a shortcoming. It's just that when his gaze fell on Chen Chen's left hand holding a cane, he was immediately relieved, and a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.
It turned out to be a cripple, and there was no threat at all!
The other party's gaze was so obvious, it was impossible for Chen Chen not to notice it. The contempt in the other party's eyes had already been captured by Chen Chen. Chen Chen was displeased, but he also knew that he had no choice at this time.
It's just that his eyes fell on the other party's body, The corners of Chen Chen's lips hooked slightly, and he thought about it. Chen Chen's reputation in the public relations industry can be said to be famous, except for his blockbuster creativity, it is the heart that does not match his elegant appearance.
If someone despises him because of his gentle appearance, you will definitely pay a heavy price. Even Bai Shiyao didn't know that Chen Chen also had a nickname called "Black-faced God" in the public relations industry.
This "black" does not refer to the face, but to the heart.
At the beginning, Chen Chen was able to achieve such a performance in such a short period of time, in addition to his excellent ability, more importantly, he was darker than ordinary people. Others are "gentlemen take revenge, ten years is not too late", but he will take revenge on the spot, never overnight.
Over the years, his personality has been much gentler. It's just that today, he didn't know what was going on, and he was a little unhappy when he saw Sima Haoran.
Catching snakes and catching seven inches, Chen Chen's best thing is to hit with one blow, and he will not show mercy.
"Xu Qing, let's find a place by ourselves. This gentleman must have other things to do, and it's not good for us to delay others like this. Chen Chen proposed.
The smile on Sima Haoran's face froze.
Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief. The other party was too enthusiastic, she was a little overwhelmed, and Chen Chen's words just solved her embarrassment.
"Chen Chen, you're right, how can we delay Mr. Sima. I'm sorry, thank you for showing me the way just now, we can just find it ourselves, you go get busy!"
Sima Haoran refused in his heart, but no matter how he showed that he was fine, Xu Qing didn't give him a chance. He had no choice but to say goodbye to Xu Qing with a smile with a grudge in his little eyes.
When he left, he glanced back in a ghostly manner, and just happened to see the smug smile on the corner of Chen Chen's mouth. As smart as he was, he immediately understood that Chen Chen was intentional just now.
Damn! Sima Haoran glared at Chen Chen hatefully, but he didn't expect Chen Chen to seem to notice his gaze, and the corners of his mouth curled even higher.
Chen Chen deliberately approached Xu Qing, "Let's go!"
Sima Haoran squeezed his fists with jealousy, as if he could pinch Chen Chen to death in this way.
Chen Chen laughed heartily twice, knowing that he was embarrassed to stop when he found Xu Qing's surprised expression.
"What is so happy, it seems that this is the first time I have seen you smile so happily!"
Chen Chen was a little weak-hearted, "Is there one?" ”
Xu Qing shook his head, "No, your laughter was very restrained before, but this is the first time." ”
"Really, it looks like it's about to start, let's hurry!"
Chen Chen cleverly changed the topic, as if he didn't want to continue talking about this topic. In fact, he himself was shocked in his heart, how long had it been since he had laughed like this before.
"Chen Chen, what are you doing in a daze? Let's go!" Xu Qing pulled Chen Chen all the way to the small courtyard in the "Boya Xuan". This is the destination of this gathering.
Around the courtyard are screens with various calligraphy works, all written by the people who visited the event. Xu Qing pulled Chen Chen to a blank screen.
"Chen Chen, quickly take out your work and hang it, it's mine. ”
These works are hung up for everyone to enjoy, and every calligraphy lover who comes to the party must prepare a pair of their own calligraphy works. Chen Chen opened Xu Qing's work, and the same hairpin flower Xiaokai seemed to be more charming than what he wrote last time. After hanging up the calligraphy of the two, Xu Qing took Chen Chen to the rest area.
"Where is Uncle Wen, let's go over. Xu Qing saw the old man Wenxin who was communicating with his friends from a distance, and immediately ran over.
"Uncle Wen, we're here!"
"It's good to be here. The old man Wenxin looked at Chen Chen behind Xu Qing and nodded, "This is Xu Qing, this is Chen Chen." ”
"Nowadays, it is rare for young people to like calligraphy, and they are really talented. ”
"Yo, this is your granddaughter?"
"You look really good, do you have a boyfriend?"
Old Man Wenxin looked at Chen Chen, "What's the matter? Old Ghost Sima, you are still going to be a matchmaker!"
The person known as "Sima Old Ghost" is the organizer of this party and Sima Haoran's grandfather. Hearing the old man Wen Xin say this, I saw him touching his beard and nodding at Xu Qing.
Old Ghost Sima said to Xu Qing: "Girl, what do you like? Uncle I have a grandson, twenty-five this year, and he is not yet married. The character and family appearance are passable, and the uncle will introduce you to each other!"
The old man Wenxin only thought that he was joking, but he didn't expect this old ghost to come to the real thing, so he hurriedly pulled Xu Qing over.
"Old ghost Sima, your calculation is good. Xu Qing, this girl, although she is not my own granddaughter, but my wife and I have long taken her as our granddaughter. As far as your kid is concerned, forget it, he doesn't have a proper shape all day long. ”
"Uncle Wen, how can you say that about me. Although I seem to be a little lively, I am actually very reliable. As soon as Sima Haoran came over, he heard the words of the old man Wen Xin, and immediately defended himself.
He didn't want the goddess to be misunderstood!
The people present are all human spirits, and it can't be seen that Sima Haoran has a heart for Xu Qing.
His grandfather was happy to see it when he arrived, and he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes, if this kid could marry Xu Qing, he would wake up laughing when he fell asleep. I'm afraid, people don't look down on him, and the old man's gaze swept over Chen Chen.
"Leave the affairs of young people to the young people to worry about, and we old men better not interfere. "Old man Wenxin is selfish and optimistic about Chen Chen.
Chen Chen, a man with a sense of responsibility and responsibility, has a common hobby, and is still single, which is very suitable for Xu Qing.
Sima Haoran was a little disappointed, he could hear that Uncle Wen was not very satisfied with him. But it doesn't matter, from now on, he decided to change his mind and become a new person and win the favor of the goddess as soon as possible.
It's just that before that, he has to make the goddess aware of his abilities. There is no identification without comparison, so Chen Chen, who was standing next to him, was directly selected as a stepping stone.
As the saying goes, if you don't die, you won't die.
Obviously, Sima Haoran didn't understand this truth at all, so he was destined to die a miserable death for Chen Chen.
