∮ Twelfth Movement: The Bidding Storm (1)

When I came to the engagement party with Xiaoying, a group of "dignitaries" immediately flocked to me.

"Ah! Miss Ling is really beautiful! She and Young Master Min are really talented men and women, and they are a natural pair! Miss Ling, I said, well, I am the wife of the chairman of the ×× company, we have a new project recently, I wonder if you can say a few kind words in front of your husband or father-in-law?"

"Yes, yes, what a golden boy and girl, a godsend! That our ×× company has always been taken care of by Yi's family, I am really grateful......"

"A match made in heaven, a match made in heaven...... I don't know, Miss Ling, do you know what new business plans Yishi has recently? Our ×× company will definitely support it to the end!"

Looking at the countless black heads in front of me squirting at me, I only felt dizzy.

"I'm sorry, everyone, today is the big day for me and Panxing, don't talk about business!" Just when I felt that it was dark, Min Zhiyi crossed the crowd and came to my side.

"Ah, Young Master Min, you and Miss Ling are really a pair of wall people!" a woman with gold and silver jewelry on her body twisted her waist and said flatteringly.

"Thank you, we're missing first......" Min Zhiyi's mouth rose slightly, and he put his arm around my shoulders and said without concealment.

"Thank you......" Walking side by side with Min Zhiyi under the envious eyes of everyone, I bowed my head and said softly.

"Do you have to be so rusty with me?" I felt Min Zhiyi's hand around my shoulder tremble slightly, and I looked up.

The moonlight sprinkled on Min Zhiyi's fair and soft skin, highlighting his serene silhouette to the extreme, and his long eyelashes were lowered to reflect the graceful curve of shadows.

"That person is the person in charge of our bidding project with Sheng's William this time, and he is also a high-ranking official in this city! as long as we have a good relationship with him, we will win!" Min Zhiyi avoided my gaze and looked at a middle-aged man in a black suit not far from us.

Min Zhiyi has always been weird lately, as if he is afraid of making eye contact with me, what the hell! The most important thing now is the competition with the saint's William!

"Get him, and we can defeat the Saint William?" so I pretended to be casual and cooperated with Min Zhiyi and asked.

"I can't say exactly, but this bid is a prelude, and as long as we can win the municipal bid in this city, then we can be very sure of the municipal bid in Paris!"

"I've heard of the municipal bidding in Paris, I've heard of it, and I'm the one that fights very well with William of St. Saints?"

"Well, that project is very big! As long as anyone can get it, they will be able to make huge profits, and there will be a great improvement in the honor of the enterprise!"

"That's right...... However, this still can't let Sheng's William go down...... "If you lose the bid, you'll only make a small profit, and it's impossible to let Sheng's William go out of business!"

"You're wrong! Losing the bid means that Saint's William will cease to exist!"

"Huh, how come?" I asked, completely confused, once again looking at Min Zhiyi's handsome face.

"Ling Panxing, why are you so stupid! Think about it, as long as we get a considerable amount of money from the city of Paris, can't we start buying William of the Saint Clan with great fanfare?" Min Zhiyi explained by knocking my head hard with his hand.

"Uh...... Yes......" Shaking my head, I stole a glance at the middle-aged man dressed in black...... Tall and thin, he looks very shrewd, and it seems that it is difficult to get a quota.

"Okay, let's go over and say hello!" So, Min Zhiyi continued to put his arms around me and strode towards me like a target......

"HELLO, SECRETARY LIN! THANK YOU FOR COMING TODAY!" I WAS SHOCKED TO SEE MIN ZHIYI SKILLFULLY TALKING TO THAT "TARGET" PERSON! I DIDN'T EXPECT THAT EVEN HE COULD PRETEND TO BE AN OFFICIAL STATUE SO NATURALLY......

"Today is the big day of your young master Min, how dare I not see it? Hehe! The bride is very beautiful, you kid is really good at picking!" The man in front of me who was about fifty years old looked at me with his eagle-like sharp eyes, and then said slowly.

"Thank you Secretary Lin for your compliment! I don't know if you can have time tomorrow, I want to ...... about the bidding."

Before Min Zhiyi finished speaking, the man known as Secretary Lin looked at me with deep meaning, raised his voice and interrupted:

"Young man, don't be in a hurry for business, you are newly married, you should stay at home and accompany the bride well!

In a word, all the polite words that Min Zhiyi planned to say were beaten back into his stomach......

I glanced at the silent Min Zhiyi, and then plucked up the courage to speak out to break this embarrassing deadlock: "Secretary Lin, you are laughing, the two of us have a very good relationship, and besides, my wings are not hard enough, and I don't have the ability to fly out of my fiancé's palm so easily!"

My tone was soft, but undeniably firm.

"Hahaha...... Sure enough, you have the guts! No wonder you can't put it down with the two of us who are so eloquent and talented! It's just that, little girl, I have traveled more roads than you have ever eaten! I can see through at a glance whether it is true or not! As for your bid with William of the Holy Family, I think you should not bother with it, everything depends on your draft! Whoever is good, I will choose whichever is good! So, ah, any private relationship, it is all saved! I will not eat this set! Today is a good day for the two of you, this kind of unhappy business, it's better to leave it behind!" the middle-aged man smiled domineeringly, and the staggered wrinkles appeared even more raging on his face covered with vicissitudes.

I didn't expect him to say it so clearly, and I was speechless for a while.

"Su Wen Secretary Lin has always been fair and honest, and when I see it today, it really lives up to its name! That is it, Secretary Lin, we can only compete with the Holy Clan's William in a dignified manner at the bidding meeting!" Min Zhiyi saw my embarrassed face and cleared the siege.

"Hahaha...... Looking at it this way, you two really feel like a young couple working together!Okay! Okay......" The middle-aged man laughed arrogantly, but his cheeks were slightly red when he heard it.

Thank you all for coming to the engagement ceremony of our Mr. Min Zhiyi and Miss Ling Panxing today, but now, the night is full and the moonlight is moving, should we leave this pair of talented and beautiful women a little good night? haha...... This is the end of today's dinner! Please leave through the back door of the church, and thank you for today's honor, I will replace ......" The host who was invited from somewhere, took the microphone and danced on the steps of the church to announce the end of the party.

"Let's go, you're tired too, go back and rest early, there are more things we need to do from tomorrow onwards......" So, in the envious eyes of everyone, Min Zhiyi and I left the church hand in arm......

Although it was a wedding night, Min Zhiyi and I entered our own rooms with our own hearts, and there was no husband and wife......

The bitterness of the tears, I didn't want to try anymore, closed my eyes tightly, and forced myself to sleep......

Tossing and turning, the cells in the brain are never able to go into shock.

Count the sheep! Count and you'll fall asleep!

So, I let the little white sheep settle into their boiling brains...... One, two, three......

But, counting...... Thoughts began to float again......

Daddy ...... Mommy......

Today, I walked the red carpet of my life's desire......

The face covered with white veil, the tears left in the smile......

From now on, there will be someone who will stay with me forever......

In this way, will I not be lonely anymore...... No longer afraid of cold nights without hand warmer pockets......

In the dark night, with closed eyes, a starlight crossed his cheeks, instantly shining in the fragile mind......

Salty ...... Astringent ...... Warm ...... Wet wet ......

It turns out that hating people...... Not easy......
