Chapter 174: The Great Gift
At this time, the door of the elevator opened with a clang, and Cheng Xunxun only glanced sideways slightly, and did not see the person clearly, but it was certain that a group of people came over, and she had to hurry in and occupy a place.
She stood directly in the corner of the elevator. When he turned around, the group of mermaids rushed in, and they all turned to face the elevator door. In front of this group of men, Cheng Xunxun looked unusually short, so she stood in the corner and became without any sense of existence.
She glanced sideways at the tall man standing beside her, with no expression on her face. Like a wooden stake, it looks like it should be a bodyguard. She silently swept around, and found that there were three or four men like him, like a wall, surrounding the well-dressed man in the middle, with meticulously combed hair.
There were also two or three staff members beside him, who had been reporting something in a voice that was neither high nor low, and it seemed that she was the only one in the entire elevator, Cheng Xunxun, who was a passerby.
The person standing beside her suddenly glanced sideways at her, and Cheng Xunxuan immediately lowered his head when he saw it. Watching the nose and nose and looking at the heart, pretending that you can't hear or see anything.
It may be that the atmosphere in the elevator is too solemn, Cheng Xunxun couldn't help but lift a heart, and pounding, inexplicably a little nervous, feeling as if she had done something wrong, but she obviously didn't do anything, just accidentally took the same elevator.
But fortunately, the big brother next to her didn't seem to take her seriously, and didn't make any moves, the elevator stopped on the tenth floor, the elevator door slowly opened, and I only heard someone say: "Mr. Zhou, please." ”
Immediately footsteps sounded, and the group of people stepped out of the elevator one after another. The oppressive atmosphere disappeared all of a sudden, and Cheng Xunxun breathed a sigh of relief, took a step forward, and pressed the closing button and the floor.
The group suddenly stopped. One of them asked, "What's wrong with Mr. Zhou?"
Zhou Yanqing glanced back at the slowly closing elevator door, and the staff followed his gaze, turned to think of something, and said, "Don't worry, there will be people welcoming guests here." ”
"Hmm. He nodded, then withdrew his gaze.
When Cheng Xunxuan returned to the door of his room, Chen Yujian was standing there. He seemed to be waiting for her, with a bag in his hand.
"Are you back?" I thought you should go and prepare a dress for the banquet, do you have something to look for me?" Cheng Xunxun took it out of his bag, opened the door and walked in.
Chen Yujian followed closely and closed the door with his hand, Cheng Xunxun threw the bag on the bed, poured himself a glass of water, took a big sip, and said: "The hotel is very lively today, I remember that our company also received an invitation, don't you go?" she said as she turned around and leaned on the table, looking at him with a smile.
"I've already handed over the invitation to Xu Yin. He walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down to see the location of the open-air pool on the 10th floor, which was now furnished and lit to look beautiful.
Cheng Xunxun was a little surprised, and glanced at him sideways, the sky outside had become gray, and his face was reflected on the floor-to-ceiling window.
"Why aren't you going?"
The corners of Chen Yujian's lips twitched slightly, and said, "It's inconvenient, and now is not the time, and they won't want to see me." On such a happy day, I shouldn't have let their family have fun. Anyway, there will be an opportunity to meet in the future, so there is no hurry. ”
Her fingers rubbed the wall of the cup, nodded her head, glanced at him with her spare eyes, and said with a smile: "Then you are waiting for me at the door, what do you want to say to me?"
"It's nothing, I want to tell you that we will have dinner together, I booked a room. It's such a good day today, dress up nicely. He put the bag in his hand on the bed, "We'll see you later." ”
With that, he walked out of the room.
Cheng Xunxun stood in place, watching him walk out of the door, watching the door close, without saying a word.
She placed the cup in her hand on the table, touched her chin, walked forward, opened the bag, and looked inside, which was a small pink dress, and a box.
She took out the dress and took a look, the design of the dress was simple and elegant, the pattern on the chair was very simple, the front looked quite conservative, and when she turned to the back, it was open-backed. The color style is what she likes, and Chen Yujian still knows her taste very well.
Cheng Xunxun put the clothes on one side, and looked at the box again, it was a jewelry box, which contained diamond necklaces and earrings, which were also very simple styles and not complicated and cumbersome.
In this way, she didn't quite understand Chen Yujian's intentions, he didn't mention anything about taking her to the banquet, but why did he dress so ceremoniously when it was just two people eating?
She placed the jewelry box on the table, her fingers caressing the sparkling diamonds on the necklace.
Although I don't know what Chen Yujian's intentions are, Cheng Xunxuan still took a shower, changed into clothes, the size was just right, painted a light makeup, and just finished spraying perfume, the doorbell rang.
She answered, then lifted her skirt and hurriedly opened the door, Chen Yujian stood at the door with a pair of shoes in her hand.
"I forgot to get you shoes just now. ”
"Oh. She stretched out her hand to take it, but Chen Yujian avoided it, she paused, smiled faintly, and said, "What are you doing?"
He reached out and grabbed her by the waist, gave her a gentle push, and then led her into the room, and sat her down on the edge of the bed. He immediately squatted down and put the shoebox in his hand to the side.
Cheng Xunxun saw his intentions, shrank his feet, and said, "No, I can wear it myself." ”
However, Chen Yujian ignored her words, reached out and clasped her ankles, and put her shoes on with her own hands.
The room became very quiet, Cheng Xunxun tugged at the hem of his skirt, watching him put on his shoes, his cheeks were slightly red inexplicably.
After putting on his shoes, Chen Yu stood up simply, stretched out his hand at her, and said, "Stand up and see if it fits." ”
Cheng Xunxun glanced up at him, the hand holding the hem of the skirt tightened, and after a moment he raised his hand and put his hand in his palm, and then stood up, and the distance between the two suddenly became extremely close. Cheng Xunxun looked up at him, his throat moving slightly.
Chen Yujian glanced at her face, lowered her eyes again, "Are you comfortable?"
Cheng Xunxun looked at him stunned, didn't come back to his senses for a while, and even forgot to answer. Chen Yujian waited for a while, saw that she hadn't spoken, raised his eyes to look at her, and squeezed her hand lightly. She quickly came back to her senses, just met his gaze, her expression froze, she quickly withdrew her gaze, lowered her head, withdrew her hand suddenly, took two steps to the side, kept a certain distance from him, lifted her skirt with both hands, revealed the pair of silver-white high heels, and said with a smile: "It fits perfectly." ”
She looked down at her feet and took a few steps back and forth, "You have such a good eye, I like it very much, and the size is very good, I can't see that you know me quite well." ”
Chen Yujian looked at her, with a light smile on his face, a rare gentleness, "Come here, I'll help you wear a necklace." ”
"Okay. She walked over with a smile, but her heart was still holding and pounding.
She pretended to be relaxed and walked over and sat down in front of the dresser, the two of them were reflected in the mirror, Cheng Xunxun straightened his back, with a standard smile on his face, revealing six teeth. She only felt that her teeth were cold, and the corners of her mouth were sore.
Chen Yujian picked up the necklace, and Cheng Xunxun grabbed the loose hair so that he could put the necklace on her.
His fingertips were slightly cold, as if they were sticking to her skin, and at this moment, Cheng Xunxun was thinking about other things to forcibly distract himself.
It's just a simple action of wearing a necklace, and it hardly takes a minute, but Cheng Xunxun feels that this time seems to have been slowed down. The coolness on her neck was like nothing, and after all, she couldn't completely ignore it, and she couldn't help but get goosebumps.
"Alright. He said.
"Oh, thank you. Cheng Xunxun let go of her hand, and her long black hair like seaweed fell down, with her unique aura, brushing the back of Chen Yujian's hand.
She lowered her eyes and took the diamond stud earrings in the jewelry box and put them on.
Chen Yujian put her hands behind her back, stood on one side and looked at her, smiled and said, "You are very beautiful dressed like this." ”
"That's because you have a good eye and picked out a dress that suits me. She tied up her long hair, without any hair ornaments, stood up, took the matching clutch, and said, "All right." ”
Chen Yujian was wearing a light gray suit today, looking younger, he made a gentlemanly gesture of please, and Cheng Xunxuan walked in front and walked out of the room. When he came out, he grabbed his arm.
Before entering the elevator, Cheng Xunxun still thought that Chen Yujian was going to take her to the dinner, but after entering the elevator, she was completely unsure, the elevator went up instead of down, so she didn't want to go to the banquet.
The two stood side by side in the elevator, Cheng Xunxun watched the red numbers above the elevator keep jumping up, she smiled and said, "Chen Yujian, who do you want to take me to see?"
"Nobody was seen. ”
And she went out.
Afterwards, they entered a viewing suite, which was furnished to look romantic and warm, and the meal was ready, including candles and red wine steaks.
Chen Yujian went over and pulled out a chair for her, made a gesture of please, Cheng Xunxun bent down and sat down, and said with a smile: "So chic?"
"Happy days should naturally be arranged in a more chic way. He said as he walked over to her and sat down across from her.
Cheng Xunxun smiled, his eyes swept around the Western food and wine glasses in front of him, and said with a smile: "I originally thought that you would take me to the banquet, and then make them all shocked, so it can be called a gorgeous return." But I didn't expect you to bring me here, dressed so beautifully, and secretly rubbed to eat a meal. ”
"Show up so early and let them target you? Return doesn't have to be like this, gorgeous appearance is when you are in control of the overall situation, so that you can really trample all of them under your feet. It's no use for you to appear like this now. ”
"That makes sense, tell me what you're thinking in your head right now. Cheng Xunxun kept a smile on his face, looked at him with burning eyes, and said with a smile: "I don't believe that you really just have a meal with me, it's that simple." ”
"Aren't you hungry? Chen Yujian glanced at her, took the napkin, put it on her knees, then picked up the knife and fork, lowered her head and began to cut the steak slowly.
Cheng Xunxun looked at him for a while, raised his eyebrows, and also picked up the knife and fork and began to eat slowly.
In the process of eating, the atmosphere is quite harmonious, the taste of the meal is not bad, it should be prepared by Chen Yujian personally, everything is in line with the taste of Cheng Xun, her mouth is very picky, so when she goes out to eat, she must first say hello to the people in the restaurant, if the taste is not right, she will not eat more, and she will not touch other dishes.
It's a turtle hair and a difficult person to serve.,Of course, she won't say anything on the surface.,Only use her own actions to repel everything.,On the surface, she also shows a gentle smile.,You can even talk and laugh with others.,If it's not a familiar person.,Until the end of the meal.,You won't notice her strangeness.。
Even Yu Xuejun knows about her like this, and Chen Yujian knows it.
It's just that this change in hers makes Chen Yujian seem to see the shadow of another person in her, that is Zhou Yanqing, but she is the ultimate version, and Zhou Yanqing back then put any dissatisfaction on the table, and she put it in her heart, and the next dinner will never be booked in that restaurant.
It can also be regarded as a kind of revenge in disguise.
After eating, Chen Yujian also asked someone to bring desserts up, and when he went out and came in again, Cheng Xunxun was no longer in place, she was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a wine glass in her hand, slim.
The light in the whole room was already dim, and the spotlight on the window sprinkled the warm yellow light on her body, and the whole person was enveloped in the circle of light.
The sound of the door closing attracted Cheng Xunxun's attention, and when he turned his head, he saw Chen Yujian walking over here, she smiled slightly, and said, "The scenery in this room is indeed beautiful." ”
Chen Yujian stood beside her, put one hand in her pocket, and glanced out, the bustling city with brilliant lights, the night is always charming.
"It's been a few days since you came back, how do you feel?"
"I don't feel anything but strangeness. Cheng Xunxun held the wine glass in both hands and looked out the window with a smile, "Oh, by the way, I just took a look, and I realized that today is your birthday." In the morning, the mobile phone memo reminded me once, but I didn't pay attention to it, just took the phone to check the time, and immediately remembered. ”
"Happy birthday to you, and a gift for you tomorrow. As she spoke, she turned and walked to the table, took his glass, handed it to him, and said, "Come, I will toast you, today is indeed a good day." ”
Chen Yujian glanced down, stretched out his hand, and took the cup, Cheng Xunxun took the initiative to touch him, and then took a big sip. Chen Yujian didn't move, just watched her finish the red wine in the cup in one sip, chuckled, only raised her hand to take a sip, and didn't drink more.
The two stood in front of the window chatting and drinking, the atmosphere was pleasant, Cheng Xunshun was a little drunk after a few drinks, but she was very drunk now, she was not so easy to get drunk, she was drunk for three minutes, and she was probably three points drunk.
Cheng Xunchun went to the toilet, and when he came out, Chen Yujian opened another bottle of red wine and poured himself a glass.
"Are you planning to get drunk today?"
"I don't want birthday gifts, you can drink with me today, and you won't get drunk or go home. He said the last four words very slowly, word by word.
Cheng Xunxun picked up the wine glass with a smile and said with a smile: "It's okay, then I still have a sum of money left." ”
"Hey, as if you're going to give me something valuable. He smiled dismissively.
Cheng Xunxun turned around and leaned against the windowsill, faced him, and said, "No?"
"Is there one?" he looked sideways at her, took a sip of wine, and whispered, "The first year you gave me a cup with a notch, and you said you made it yourself, and the ugly face on it, you said it was me, and you said it was painted on my face." ”
"Ah, but that's really what I did. Cheng Xunxun thought about it at once, she doesn't have many memories, so what has happened in the past few years, she remembers it very clearly, when she made a cup for Chen Yujian, she was still a beginner, if she wants to make a cup now, it should be much better than at the beginning, at least it will be very complete.
Chen Yujian chuckled, "The gift for the second year is a scarf, which you knitted by hand, which is very ugly." ”
As he spoke, Cheng Xunxun couldn't help giggling, her hands were on the windowsill, and after standing for a long time, her feet hurt a little, so she took off her high heels, put them aside, and said with a smile: "Then you were still around at that time, weren't you?"
"Give you face. ”
"Gifts, don't look at the price to see the heart, the hand-made things are the most heartfelt, those two gifts carry my full blessings. She smiled, and after a while, she changed her tone and said, "It's enough to buy you a valuable one this year, look at your scheming appearance, why didn't you say it before." ”
She snorted twice, turned to face the floor-to-ceiling window, raised her hand and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, put the cup on the windowsill, smiled slightly, and said, "Actually, after I became skilled, I made a new cup and kept it here for myself, and I didn't give it to you." I also re-knitted a scarf, and now it is still in the cabinet and has not been moved, I want to give you the best, but I am not good at learning, and I am very serious when I do it, but the result is unsatisfactory. ”
"Actually, I don't like to go into the mall to buy gifts, the price is there, but the price doesn't necessarily reflect the heart. She pondered for a moment, and suddenly seemed to think of something, turned her head and said with great interest: "Why don't we do this, how about we change the way for this year's birthday gift?"
"What?"
"I'll be Aladdin's magic lamp once, but I only give you one wish, as long as you say it, I'll help you do it, of course, within my ability, how about it?" she smiled, her cheeks flushed, and there were fine beads of sweat on the tip of her nose.
Chen Yujian glanced at her, thoughtfully, she always felt that she would not come to such an idea for such a reason, she should know that Chen Yujian didn't have too many requirements for her birthday, even if there was no gift, it didn't matter.
Regardless of whether Chen Yujian agrees or not, Cheng Xunxun said to himself at this moment, "Say it, what do you want me to do for you, or what do you want most now." ”
The two looked at each other for a few seconds before Chen Yujian turned his head, smiled lightly, and said, "You are not a magic lamp." ”
"Then you just talk about it, don't you tell me how do you know that I don't have the ability of a magic lamp?"
After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but raise her hand and rub her forehead, and said, "Why are you a little dizzy, let's go to the sofa, okay? I'm tired after standing for so long." ”
She reached out and grabbed Chen Yujian's arm, in order to support her body from sliding, Chen Yujian let her hold it, without any movement, the smile on her face was still the same. She glanced at him and sighed faintly, not even having the strength to hold on to him.
Just as she was about to fall to the ground, Chen Yujian reached out and grabbed her arm, put the wine glass in her hand on the windowsill, pulled her up, and firmly blocked her waist with one hand. She leaned on his body and leaned on his shoulder.
She raised her lips slightly, tried to open her eyes, raised her eyes to look at him, but only saw a side face of him, smiled, and said, "I said, I will help you realize your wish, why don't you just say it? Do you think I won't help you? Or do you think I don't have the ability? Make a wish, make a wish." ”
Her consciousness began to blur, and finally she was still muttering to herself to make him make a wish, and slowly closed her eyes, Chen Yujian only hugged her body firmly, and when he felt that all the strength in her body was gone, he looked down at her, reached out and gently touched her cheek, and rubbed her lips with his fingertips.
After a while, he suddenly lowered his head, pecked at the corner of her mouth, and immediately picked her up horizontally and walked out of the room.
……
The dinner was held very successfully, and this banquet market was a purely commercial banquet, and the people who came were all people with heads and faces, or business elites. The banquet is mainly to talk about business and interests, and the female companions are all foils, but this time Zhou Yanqing did not bring a female companion by his side, but only picked a person who can drink in the public relations department to follow him.
In recent years, Zhou Yanqing's private life has been very secretive, and he usually takes the public relations manager of his company with him when he attends various banquets, or is a little star. And with his current status, some small magazines don't dare to write nonsense.
He never mentions his family outside, let alone takes his family to attend or attend this kind of banquet, all you can see is his career.
Many people are curious about the affairs of the Zhou family, but curiosity kills the cat, and no one will go to find out. Bird Girl's Bus.
At the end of the dinner, Zhou Yanqing drank a lot of wine, the hotel had already prepared a room, it was so late, he didn't plan to go back.
After the aftermath was handed over to Zheng Jiang, he went upstairs to prepare to go back to his room.
After drinking the last glass of wine, his mouth was a little dry, and there was always a rush of anger in his heart, so he stood alone in the elevator, pulled his tie, and unbuttoned the collar of his shirt. After a while, the elevator arrived at the floor, he found the room, opened the door and entered, inserted the card in the card slot, did not turn on the light, went straight in, and sat on the sofa accurately by the light outside the window.
There was always a rush of energy in his body, and he was a little irritable, but he could guess that he might have drunk something in question.
After sitting on the sofa for a while, he went to pour a cup of cold white water, but he still couldn't suppress the fire in his heart.
He took off his coat, ripped off the tie hanging around his neck, and took out his mobile phone as he walked to the bedroom, ready to call Zheng Jiang.
When I turned on the light, I saw a woman lying on the bed, with a big bow tied with red silk cloth around her waist, which was obviously a big gift from someone.
