Chapter 71: Blind Eyes
Xiao Yijing pushed through the layers of crowds, came to his brother Xiao Yizhi, and called in a low voice: "Big brother." β
After Xiao Yizhi said "sorry" to the people chatting with him, he walked out of the crowd with his younger brother, came to a place with few people, and glanced at Chu Huaijin, who was looking at them, his face gloomy.
"Yijing, I didn't say you, why did you get together with that crazy Miss Chu again as soon as you came back?" Xiao Yizhi sighed, "You just let go of the Xiao family's career, why are you so casual emotionally? What kind of person is Chu Huaijin, you don't know - you have been abroad for a few years, why have you been willing to fall to this point? Even if you are casual, you should find a clean daughter's home, why can you ......?"
Xiao Yijing raised his hand and interrupted his brother's slander of Chu Huaijin: "Brother, we are just friends, not what you think." However, Huai Jin is a very good girl, and the reason why you say this is because you don't know her. In short, one day, there will be men who will discern pearls, find her good, and treat her as jewelry. Although I don't have a relationship with her, I don't want you to misunderstand her like that. β
Xiao Yizhi sighed and said: "If you say that, I think you might as well get along with Chu Huaijin! Mu Wanchun has been dead for more than four years, and you are still stuck in the old love and can't extricate yourself, not only do you leave the Xiao family's industry, but also go to foreign countries to learn what bullshit jewelry design -- these can go with your parents, but emotionally, you can't be so depressed anymore." My parents, and your sister-in-law, will find you a suitable girl as soon as possible, and give you an acquaintance, I hope you will start a family soon, and don't hang around like this again!"
When Xiao Yijing heard this, he complained bitterly, but he didn't say anything.
Xiao Yijing beckoned to Chu Huaijin, Chu Huaijin saw it coming over, and politely called Xiao Yizhi "Xiao Gongzi".
Xiao Yizhi nodded coldly, in response.
Chu Huaijin glimpsed his contempt for himself from Xiao Yizhi's face. However, since he didn't scold himself to his face, he just didn't see it.
Xiao Yijing and Chu Huaijin followed Xiao Yizhi and came to Mulan and George, and Xiao Yizhi introduced everyone one by one.
"Madam, you are so beautiful!" Chu Huaijin said, stretching out his hand to shake Mulan's hand.
"Miss Chu, you don't have a style either!" Mulan said with a smile.
When George saw Chu Huaijin, his eyes lit up suddenly: "Madam is right! This Miss Chu's beauty is really warm and fragrant, touching, and impressive!"
When Mulan heard this, the smile on her face became even stronger. She swept Chu Huaijin: her long black hair fell down her shoulders like waves, her beautiful big eyes looked forward to Shengbo, her fiery red lips were even more sexy and charming, and the black tight-fitting dress made her hot body even more abrupt - in short, the current Chu Huaijin is like a fiery red rose blooming in the garden, warm and unrestrained, full of wild sex appeal and beauty that hits people's hearts.
"But it seems that Miss Chu's fire rose seems to be a famous flower - Miss Chu, Xiao Gongzi, you, are you a couple?" Mulan looked at Chu Huaijin and Xiao Yijing with a deep meaning in her eyes.
Chu Huaijin shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and Xiao Yijing explained with a smile: "Madam misunderstood. Miss Chu and I are friends. The two of us are world friends. The two of us grew up together. Although they are of the same age, there is no love between men and women. β
Mulan sighed regretfully: "So that's the case, it's a pity." I think the two of them are standing together, but they are a natural pair. Don't you think so? Don't you think?"
When Xiao Yizhi heard Mulan say this, he had to nod his head helplessly, and said: "Emotional matters, where can others explain clearly? Since they have no intention, we have no choice but to go with them." β
Mulan took Chu Huaijin's hand, and her eyes showed joy: "This Miss Chu, I heard that she studied abroad before, and she still studied drama and directing?
Chu Huaijin smiled politely: "Yes, I just graduated." I was homesick and came back. In recent years, the domestic film and television industry has developed rapidly, and I want to come back to show my strengths. By the way, I heard that there is a film and television company under Madame's family, I don't know Madame here, but do you need a newcomer like Huai Jin?"
Mulan laughed and patted Chu Huaijin's hand: "It's a coincidence, our company is going to shoot a big IP drama recently, and we will select characters on the scene and on the Internet." As for the behind-the-scenes personnel of the play, they also need to be strongly recommended by everyone, if someone can recommend themselves like Miss Chu, then Mulan can't ask for it. β
"Congratulations to Madame for meeting a good general, congratulations to Huai Jin for meeting a good opportunity and Bole!" Xiao Yijing said, raising his glass.
George also raised his glass, his eyes wandering between these people: "There is a saying in China, it is called 'there is a fate to meet thousands of miles away, but there is no fate to meet each other'. It is only today that I have grasped the deep meaning of this sentence. The Chinese dialect is really amazing!"
At that moment, Mulan, George, Chu Huaijin, and Xiao Yizhi all raised their wine glasses, clinked glasses, and drank together. In the conversation and laughter, the relationship between each other seems to be a little closer than those who nod their heads.
Since George learned that the people in front of him were Chu Huaijin and Xiao Yijing, the emotions in his eyes became complicated. And Chu Huaijin and Xiao Yijing's eyes when they looked at George were also a little more probing and scrutinizing.
In the end, in the eye contact between the two sides, some sparks emerged - when George looked at Chu Huaijin again, there was a little more appreciation and admiration in his eyes, and when he looked at Xiao Yijing, there was a little more meaningful smile.
Especially when George paid attention and Xia Mohan's eyes kept looking to the side, George's eyes began to shuttle between Xia Mohan and Xiao Yijing, and the smile in his eyes became more and more obvious.
"The next play will be more and more exciting!" George thought to himself, taking a soft sip of wine, "In order to make this play even more brilliant, I will fan the flames at the right time." β
Sensing the dislocation of George's expression, Mulan's body leaned towards him a little, and grabbed his arm: "Honey, as the host, you are out of the play." β
"I'm sorry, ma'am! This Miss Chu is so beautiful, I was disturbed by her beauty, and I lost my mind for a while. George also reached out and hugged Mulan.
Mulan smiled and bit George's ear: "Honey, your eyes, have you seen the flowers?"
After saying goodbye to Chu Huaijin and them, Mulan came to the banquet center and delivered a speech:
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!
Mulan is very honored to be favored by all of you to participate in tonight's banquet, which is really grateful to Mulan who has just arrived.
Once upon a time, my dream was to become a wonderful female entrepreneur like my mother. Today, this wish of mine has become a reality, and I have my own company and my own business. Mulan has been able to come to this day, thanks to the support and help of all friends. In the days to come, Mulan still needs everyone's help.
I grew up abroad, so I have accepted a lot of foreign ideas and concepts, which may not be recognized by some friends in China. But it doesn't matter, we can seek common ground while reserving differences.
Today, here. I would like to make a call to everyone, our 'Mulan' film and television is about to start, our company needs all kinds of talents, I hope that everyone present can introduce me to more talents;
After Mulan finished speaking, there was a warm applause around her.
Xia Mohan has been following Mulan since Xiao Yijing left, and occasionally glanced at Chu Huaijin and Xiao Yijing.
There was an inexplicable feeling, seeing Chu Huaijin and Xiao Yijing again, Xia Mohan even felt that the past four years had been nothing more than a dream, as if it was yesterday, Mu Wanchun was still alive, but he was just having trouble with him, hiding in a corner that he couldn't find, just waiting for her to be angry, and she returned to him alone like a cat. Still the same as before, gentle and loving him as before.
Xia stood aside, quietly observing everyone at the banquet, especially Chu Huaijin and Xiao Yijing, he, like Xia Mohan, had a general and inexplicable feeling in his heart since he saw the two of them, feeling that Mu Wanchun and Xia He were still alive, just waiting for them to find them.
Closing his eyes, Xia He was still vividly aware of the situation lying in the coffin. Summer knew that everything he fantasized about was really just a fantasy. The most important thing in the present is to live the present and the future.
Thinking of this, Summer glanced at Xia Mohan again: his eyes had been wandering on Mulan, which was not a good sign.
Xia faintly felt that the appearance of the marquis couple had stirred up a splash in S City, so now, how much impact will the return of Chu Huaijin and Xiao Yijing have on Xia Mohan?
Lusha didn't know when she stood by Xia Mohan's side, and when she looked at his eyes, she saw that Xia Mohan's eyes had been locked on Mulan, and she couldn't help but "hum" and smack her lips.
"Oh, some people are born with little affection, and when they fall in love with the new person, they abandon the old one, just like a drug addict, they change their tastes again and again, and they abandon them again and again! It's really despicable. β
Xia Mohan turned his head and glanced at Lusha: "I just saw you go over to greet Chu Huaijin and themβwhen did you become good sisters with her?"
Lusha glared at Xia Mohan: "You don't have to worry about my affairs! Also, I solemnly tell you today: I like Xiao Yijing, this time it's true." Now that he's back, I can pursue him in the open. So I warn you: don't trouble him! Otherwise, I'll trouble you!"
Xia Mohan turned his head to look at Xiao Yijing, who was still standing with Chu Huaijin: "To be fair, he is indeed good." He won't like a girl like you, though......"
