Chapter 16 Prosperity
Meiyun replied very naturally, "The news in the mobile phone is all there, such a famous banquet, of course you will know it, celebrities, everyone pays attention to it." ”
Her answer was impeccable, very reasonable, Xue Ling closed her eyes slightly, and stopped talking, she has always felt tired for a while, and she actually felt relieved when she saw Xiao Zhifan today.
She also reflected on when she began to become so weak.
It seems like......
It is from the company's funds that there is a problem, after you come to Xiao Zhifan yourself.
The two took a nap, and the dress arrived on time.
To Xue Ling's surprise, this dress shop also provides professional dress dressing services.
The two women wearing white gloves and professional suits and skirts stood professionally on the side, and Xue Ling was a little embarrassed that he didn't even know where to put his hands and feet.
On the side, Meiyun was already tidying up her dress with her dresser as she was used to seeing it, it was a feather skirt with a large skirt, although the weather was getting hotter, but such a light design didn't look stuffy.
"That ......," Xue Ling leaned forward.
Meiyun then turned around, "What's the matter?" Sister Xue, you should wear it quickly, the car from the dance party will come to pick us up in a while, you can't even catch up with your makeup if you are so slow." ”
"Meiyun, can you come over for a moment?" Xue Ling beckoned, motioning for Meiyun to come over to the bathroom.
Meiyun had no choice but to put down the skirt that she had sorted out half of in her hand, and said helplessly, "What's the matter?" Sister Xue, this kind of skirt should be shaken open by hand after taking out the packaging bag. Let's talk about it quickly. ”
Xue Ling raised the watch in his hand and waved, "Don't worry, it's too late." ”
Xue Ling stretched out his slender arm and pulled Meiyun to the bathroom and closed the door, very nervous, "Can't we get dressed by ourselves?" ”
Meiyun, "Huh?" laughed out in surprise and helplessly, "No, Sister Xue, this is a dress, everyone wears it like this, so that the clothes will not wrinkle, and the clothes will fit better." ”
"Actually, let's rent a dress with a small skirt. Xue Ling explained, "At this time, it should be too late to change the skirt, right?"
Meiyun's expression turned into a helpless hatred, "Sister Xue, this is ...... It's a very important ball, think about the characters who may come, maybe people can do everything with a little hook of their hands, don't you plan to wear a daily skirt and go?"
Xue Ling heard that Meiyun finally said in his heart, and immediately nodded vigorously, "It's also very good to wear a high-end skirt like you don't usually wear, it's convenient and good-looking." ”
At this time, Meiyun looked at Xue Ling with a completely complicated expression and frowned silently, she seemed to faint and held on to the wall on the side, "Sister, although the customized dress outside is not the top match, it is also the price of 30,000 yuan, you plan to wear the usual skirt of hundreds and thousands to participate in a stunning dance party that everyone wears, this is a social venue." ”
Meiyun supported her forehead with the back of her hand, looking like she had a headache, "Besides, I've rented it all, even if I return it, the deposit can't be refunded." ”
"Then I'll go and tell them, I should be able to get the money back. Xue Ling pointed out the door, and was about to go out.
Meiyun hurriedly stopped her and clasped her hands together, "Sister, please, just listen to me, this money is from my relatives, I can't brush off other people's kindness, so how can I get along with others in the future." ”
Xue Ling didn't want to embarrass Meiyun either, watching her stop for three or four seconds, she still decided to follow Meiyun's arrangement, she walked to her dress with some embarrassment when she came out of the bathroom, and the dresser was already arranging her skirt for her.
When the two of them put on their skirts, sorted out their shapes, and went to look at the full-length mirror brought by the dresser, Xue Ling couldn't believe that the woman in the mirror with light makeup and a little weak but charming was herself.
She hurriedly pulled Meiyun, who was still sorting out her belt, "Meiyun, Meiyun...... You see......"
Meiyun glanced up at her in the mirror, "That's not good." She lowered her head and smiled, "I have long seen that Sister Xue Ling's appearance is still very good." ”
Xue Ling heard this, I don't know what's going on, there is a kind of sour loneliness in her heart, she looked at herself in the mirror, her skin was white, and her eyes were timid, she couldn't help but be a little suspicious, and sighed for a while, "I don't feel like myself anymore." ”
Xue Ling really couldn't understand the feeling in her heart, and she couldn't understand it, obviously she was wearing a gorgeous costume, and she was obviously about to have a good night, this kind of opportunity may not be available to many girls, because it is difficult to get an invitation card to the Rose Ball.
But she just felt a vague discomfort.
Cheap hotels, simple rooms, against the background of blue expensive dresses, there is a strong sense of contrast that does not match.
"Didi ......"
Meiyun heard the car horn, quickly pulled up the belt that didn't look good just now, walked to the window to take a look, and waved her hand at Xue Ling, "Hurry up," she turned around, "The car below has arrived." ”
The spring night is not too early, the location of this hotel is not too close to the city center, but it is also quiet, there is a fountain downstairs, there are a lot of golden cinnamon planted in the courtyard, they live on a low floor, and they can smell the fragrance wafting from below.
The black car was quietly parked in the courtyard near the door, although it was not an exclusive luxury car, but it was also a medium to high class car, and it was said that the ball was specially arranged to pick up the participants, of course, many people drove themselves or had a driver.
When the two of them sat in the car, the car drove slowly, Xue Ling leaned back softly, her heart was full of unreal feelings, this was the first time in her life that she wore such an expensive dress, although it was different from the usual brilliance that reflected her, but she really felt that she was not used to it.
The last time she came to Jianghuai in a hurry, this time because of a bad mood, nested in the hotel every day, and did not go out much, until this time she was driven in the city by the prom car, this time she felt the prosperity of Jianghuai, high-rise buildings, people and vehicles flowed endlessly, when crossing the bridge across the river, she could see the quiet flow of the river outside without any waves from the car, she was fascinated by these fresh scenery, and her mood was unconsciously relaxed.
When the car slowly stopped, she still had a feeling that she hadn't seen enough, they didn't come early, but it wasn't the latest, there was no more lively crowd at the door, and she could vaguely see that they were all carnivaling inside.
She was a little weak-hearted, and Meiyun looked much calmer than her.
The two got out of the car, Xue Ling was at the door for a while and didn't want to go in, Meiyun reached out and pulled her a few times without pulling, and finally stood at the door with her, "What's wrong, Sister Xue?" Meiyun was a little coquettish.
Xue Ling looked at her and felt a little funny in his heart, "I may be the weakest bronze you have ever carried, right?"
Meiyun's eyes widened, "Sister Xue, you also play games." ”
Xue Ling shook his head and replied to the question, "Otherwise, I'd better go back, there is always a feeling that the world inside doesn't belong to me." ”
Where is Meiyun willing to agree, "Sister Xue, it's time to kick the door, what are you going to do? Just be a companion with me, okay? I don't know anyone inside, if you leave, I will be very lonely." ”
Xue Ling couldn't bear to disappoint Meiyun, and finally followed Meiyun in, except for being stuck at the door because of the invitation, the next thing was quite smooth, but the people inside were indeed just like Meiyun said, she didn't know any of them, she was at a loss like a stupid rabbit who entered the wolf pack, and didn't know how to move.
Xiao Zhifan was drinking alone on the second floor, and pouring a lot of valuable golden champagne didn't make him feel better, he just wanted to have some strong vodka that could make him drunk and relieve his sorrows, until Xue Ling suddenly appeared in his sight, he shook his head, wanting to confirm whether he was drunk and hallucinating.
After several confirmations, he was very sure that Xue Ling was standing there, as stupid as he was when he met him for the first time.
When he was about to rush downstairs desperately, his arm suddenly felt soft, and when he looked down, he saw that it was Ruan Yuan who wrapped around his arm, Ruan Yuan leaned on his shoulder shyly, "Zhifan, it turns out that you are here, let me find it." ”
Xiao Zhifan suddenly calmed down a little, changed to his usual rational expression, and smiled indifferently, "It's a little stuffy down there, I'll come up and breathe." ”
Ruan Yuan looked at his empty wine glass, "Oh?"
Xiao Zhifan reached out and pinched Ruan Yuan's cheek, "Why did you come up?"
"Isn't it time for me to come up?" Ruan Yuan said in her words, although her tone was soft, she was not a white rabbit who didn't know anything.
Xiao Zhifan stared at her for a few seconds, and finally smiled, "No, where is this saying?"
"By the way, last time my father asked me, when will we announce our engagement to the public, I said I want to ask your opinion, what do you say?" Ruan Yuan's eyes were full of admiration, all of which meant to ask.
Xiao Zhifan suddenly didn't know how to face her, so he could only smile and answer, "You have the final say." ”
Ruan Yuan looked at him, paused, and smiled gently, "Is it my question that makes you embarrassed, your current career is in the ascending stage, don't worry about the gossip of those people outside, my brother Zhifan is still very capable." ”
Xiao Zhifan reached out and scratched her nose, "Don't think about it, I'll take care of it, none of this matters." ”
Indeed, Xiao's enterprise ushered in a crisis from two years ago, because several elders in the founding period were not satisfied with the current equity distribution, and suddenly took away many pillars of the middle beam, and the old man Xiao was angry and had a stroke, and the eldest son of the Xiao family was obsessed with art and did not want to go home to inherit the family business.
There is no way, Xiao Zhifan can only go home and clean up the mess, even if he is strong, it is inevitable that he will have a novice period to adapt, which Ruan's enterprise and Ruan Yuan have helped him a lot.
Xiao Zhifan stretched out his hand to support the railing of the observation deck on the second floor, looking down at the banquet hall where the rich people gathered downstairs, his expression was like a king coming, his eyebrows were full of emotions ready to fight in blood, Ruan Yuan looked at Xiao Zhifan like this, and couldn't help but be attracted by the strong momentum emanating from him, so he also looked down with his gaze.
