The day of engagement came unhurriedly.

The engagement of the young president of the Shaw Brothers Group was announced by Mr. Shao himself at the last press conference jointly held by Shaw Brothers, Shen and CM, and the entire business community knew about it. Even media reporters were blocked at the door of the hotel for the engagement banquet early, waiting to take photos and videos of the engagement banquet and go back to the news.

The Shaw Group has deep roots in City A, and there are countless familiar relatives and friends. Even ordinary people would stop and watch because of such a big battle.

"I heard that this time Mr. Shao's fiancée is an ordinary female employee in the company. ”

"Really, is this a real-life version of Cinderella's story?"

"But isn't it? Think about it, an ordinary female employee, I don't know what method she used, or if she is really beautiful, otherwise how can she become a young grandmother of such a big company overnight, who doesn't envy her?"

"Good life, good life is also capital......"

Ding Guo has heard such words more or less recently, and only she can taste the taste. However, compared to this kind of discussion from the outside world, Ding Guo rarely paid attention to it. As the only guest invited by Ding Guo as a friend, Fang You naturally arrived at the engagement banquet early and went directly to the dressing room to find Ding Guo.

Ding Guo was sitting in front of the makeup table, still applying makeup to himself by the makeup artist.

"Sister Ding, you look good today. Fang You walked behind Ding Guo, looked at Ding Guo's carefully painted face in the mirror, and sighed.

Ding Guo was a little embarrassed by Fang You's words, and rarely showed a shy smile and said: You are also very good-looking today. “

"Sister Ding, don't say these kind words, today you are the heroine of the whole banquet, who can be more beautiful than you!" Fang You smiled sincerely, and his eyes were bent into two crescents.

Ding Guo smiled and said: "Your mouth is the sweetest, who can beat you." ”

Fang You looked at Ding Guo and although he was smiling, there was not much joy in his eyes, in general, even being happy was happy for the sake of appearing happy.

Fang You put the bouquet of flowers in his arms on the side of the dressing table, and then asked, "Sister Ding, have you really decided to get engaged today?"

The makeup artist instantly looked at Fang You with a neurotic gaze.

After Fang You came into contact with the makeup artist's gaze, he touched his nose a little embarrassedly, and then laughed dryly.

Ding Guo's makeup and hair were almost done, so Ding Guo said, "Thank you, I want to say a few words to her alone, can you please go out first?"

The makeup artist smiled and nodded, and said before leaving, "Miss Ding, if you have something, you can find me, and I will follow the makeup all the way today." ”

"I'm sorry for you. Ding Guo replied.

After the makeup artist left, leaving only Ding Guo and Fang You in the entire dressing room, Ding Guo turned around and faced Fang You.

"Fang You, you are a very good girl, your growth and living environment are normal, you have a better imagination of your life, and you have a pursuit of marriage based on love. But I'm different from you, I don't have so many illusions about life, what I want is a job and a career, so as long as this marriage can bring me a better career level, I can give up the so-called love. Ding Guo seemed to be saying something ordinary.

Fang You was shocked and then shouted softly: "Sister Ding, if you don't like Mr. Shao, if you are engaged to him and then marry in the future, you will not be happy." ”

"Happy? I think I'll be happy if I can make Shaw Brothers better than I am now. Ding Guo said.

"However, Shaw Group, Sister Ding, I said something that shouldn't be, no matter how the Shaw Group says it's surnamed Shao, it's the Shao family's industry, what does it have to do with you? Sister Ding, your work ability is so good, you will be very popular wherever you go. Fang You said.

Ding Guo smiled without emotion and said, "Shaw Brothers has a special meaning to me, and I may not be able to explain this to you, but Shaw Brothers is different. ”

Fang You couldn't understand what Ding Guo said, but she still insisted: "No matter what, I still think that a marriage without love is really just a grave." ”

Ding Guo smiled bitterly and said: "In this world, there are thousands of people, and so is love, and so is marriage. One step at a time, but on the day of my engagement, you said that love is a grave, which is too unlucky, right?"

Fang You knew that Ding Guo's idea was very big, and after he got it, he would not change it easily, and now he had no better way to face Ding Guo's engagement banquet than congratulations.

"yes, what I said was so unlucky. In other words, I wish Sister Ding a happy engagement, and she can find happiness in her marriage in the future!"

Ding Guo raised a smile and accepted Fang You's congratulations.

"Ding Guo, are you alright? Shao Kang knocked on the door and walked in.

"Mr. Shao. Fang You got up and called him.

"Well, Fang You is here, Ding Guo, if you're okay, we'll go, right?"

Ding Guo looked at Fang You, gave her a reassuring look, then got up, lifted the hem of his skirt, and walked towards Shao Kang: "Let's go." ”

Shao Kang and Ding Guo walked side by side, halfway through, Shao Kang felt that something was wrong, and after standing still, he looked at Ding Guo.

"What's wrong?" Ding Guo asked.

"Have you forgotten something?"

"What?"

Shao Kang suddenly raised his arm and spread his arm.

After Ding Guo saw it, he understood, and stretched out his arm into Shao Kang's arm, and then the two of them walked to the door of the banquet hall intimately.

Some of the relatives and friends who came and went in and out knew Ding Guo, and some Ding Guo heard about it, but only Ye Xulin was not seen.

Ding Guo can't deny that in his heart, he still has a slight expectation that Ye Xulin can be there, and even really come to rob the marriage in public as she said. Even if such an expectation seems so ridiculous and humble, she is also in the deepest part of her heart, so longing.

"Oh, Ding Tezhu's dress today is so different from usual. It's really beautiful. I usually wear a suit, and I am upright, but today I suddenly put on a dress, Mr. Shao, what a blessing!" A former company CEO who came to the company he had cooperated with was bringing his wife to the engagement banquet, and he and Shao Kang were there to shake hands and talk warmly.

Shao Kang also smiled decently, and replied: "Thank you Mr. Yu for your face, how is your health lately?" I always hear my friends around me mention your recent listing in the United States, which is really happy, and I didn't have time to congratulate Mr. Yu ......."

Shao Kang stood there greeting others, and Ding Guo stood aside with Shao Kang's arm, with a smile on his face, but in fact, his heart was cold.

"Mr. Shao, Ding Tezhu, on behalf of Mr. Ye, I only express my most sincere congratulations to the engagement banquet of the two, and wish the two of them can be united forever. Cheng Yao, wearing a black suit, stood straight in front of Shao Kang and Ding Guo and said, smiling.

"Secretary Cheng! What about this Mr. Ye?" Shao Kang and Cheng Yao asked, shaking hands.

"Mr. Ye is now in the United States, and there are some things to deal with, because I regret that I can't be there in person, and I just called to tell me that I must bring his most sincere blessings. This is the engagement that Mr. Ye asked me to prepare for the two of them, and I asked Mr. Shao and Ding Tezhu to accept it. Cheng Yao said with a smile.

Shao Kang turned out the gift in Cheng Yao's hand and said, "Mr. Ye has a heart." We are all so familiar with each other, it's a shame that he can't come. But this gift is really polite. Secretary Cheng, please come in, I will personally call Mr. Ye to thank you when I turn back. ”

Ding Guo had a forced smile on his face, and after seeing Cheng Yao enter the banquet hall, his expression was a little lonely and uncontrollable.

Shao Kang was still actively dealing with the guests, and he didn't notice the little change in Ding Guo's mood.

Fortunately, Ding Guo didn't have such big expectations, after hearing what Cheng Yao said, Ye Xulin was already in the United States, her heart suddenly tightened, but she kept telling herself, Ding Guo, you and Ye Xulin have nothing to do with each other at all, this is the path you have chosen. He also made a choice, and no one will regret it.

Don't regret it.

The engagement ceremony officially began. Throughout the engagement banquet, all the colors were mainly pink, and the clusters of pink roses placed on both sides were delicate and pleasant. The ceiling is also covered with pink and white hydrogen balloons, and even the five-tier engagement cake is also pink.

Ding Guo looked at such a dreamy engagement banquet, very much like what she had imagined when she was a little young, but I don't know when she started, she had worn out all the girl's hearts in her heart little by little. So much so that seeing such a dreamy scene now, I can't stir up the slightest ripple in my heart.

The applause around her and the envious exclamations from the girls didn't seem to have anything to do with her.

"Ding Guo, are you happy?" Shao Kang asked in a whisper holding Ding Guo's hand.

Ding Guo turned his face sideways, looked at Shao Kang, and pulled out a faint smile: "Happy." ”

"It's good if you're happy. Shao Kang said.

At such an engagement banquet, Ding Guo didn't feel any emotions, as if he was a bystander, and he didn't feel half participatory.

So her somewhat numb expression, along with her somewhat numb steps, slowly walked to the front of the hall with Shao Kang.

Ms. Yu Yanfei and Shao Lao stood on their sides, watching their children walk up to them step by step, everyone looked very happy, but Ding Guo did not.

But in order to support the entire engagement banquet, Ding Guo kept telling himself that he must be happy, definitely. I want to chat with more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
