Chapter 1039: Cocktail Party
"Oops......" Xiao Ping muttered, and hurriedly jumped up to change clothes.
It is very rude to be late at this kind of drinking party, although Xiao Ping doesn't care about other people's opinions, but no matter what, he always has to give Song Lei and Hu Mei face. After all, it was Song Lei who got the invitation for Xiao Ping, and she didn't look good on her face if she knew it.
Fortunately, Xiao Ping came to Venice this time and really brought a set of dresses. He hurriedly put on his dress, hurriedly came to the hotel lobby and asked the waiter at the front desk: "Where is the reception held by the film festival?" ”
The waiter politely replied, "Sir, the reception is held in the garden behind the hotel, and you can see it when you go out of the door from there and walk along the path for a while." But...... This is a private reception and you must have an invitation to attend. ”
Jenny had already given Xiao Ping the invitation when he left, so he naturally didn't worry about it, nodded and smiled at the waiter to thank him, and then hurried to the garden behind the hotel.
There are many reporters guarding the entrance to the garden, hoping to take some valuable photos. However, no one dared to cross the thunder pond for half a step, because at the entrance of the garden, there were two bodyguards with big shoulders and round waists, and anyone who did not have an invitation was not allowed to enter.
Xiao Ping showed the invitation to the bodyguard and smoothly entered the reception scene. In addition to some film and television stars, many Italian tycoons and businessmen also attended the reception. In short, the people who can get invited are some people with heads and faces, and many guests are very famous in the world.
As soon as Xiao Ping walked into the garden, he saw two familiar faces. The two once starred in a series of leading roles. was also named the most loving couple by fans of the world's Lu world, and now he is also a famous actor in the world. If the star chasers saw the two of them, they would definitely scream and rush up to ask for a photo autograph. However, Xiao Ping is not a star chaser, he just glanced at the two of them one more time and looked away, and continued to look for Song Lei and Hu Mei in the crowd.
There were about two hundred guests attending the reception, and with so many people scattered in the huge garden, it was really not easy for Xiao Ping to find the two of them in a hurry. Fortunately, he already had some understanding of the charm of Hu Mei, and his gaze turned casually, and soon fell on the group of people gathered by the fountain.
The people were clearly clustered around someone, and everyone seemed to be scrambling to show their faces in front of that person. It's just from Xiao Ping's point of view. Only a few people on the periphery can be seen. You can't see who they're around.
Xiao Ping was not polite, and regardless of the dissatisfied eyes of others, he used his strength to squeeze into the crowd, and soon saw the two people surrounded by stars. It was Song Lei and Hu Mei that he was looking for.
Hu Mei has already changed her clothes. The off-the-shoulder Western-style dress adds a bit of foreign flair to her. In particular, the jade neck as elegant as a swan and the delicate and smooth shoulders as a freshly peeled egg have attracted the attention of many men. Xiao Ping even suspected that many of the guests who were smirking around Hu Mei were just looking for an opportunity to appreciate her beauty.
And Song Lei is Hu Mei's good friend and agent. Of course, this is by her side. Because she was attending a cocktail party, Song Lei also wore a small dress. Although she is not as glamorous and radiant as Hu Mei, she is also a rare beauty. In particular, Xiao Pepper's particularly plump breasts are in line with the aesthetics of Westerners, so there are many guests who secretly covet her.
However, on this occasion, the guests all held their own identities, and no one would really harass Song Lei and Hu Mei. At most, I am looking for an opportunity to say a few more words with the two beauties, and strive to make a good impression in front of them.
Hu Mei was chatting with a middle-aged woman, and Xiao Ping didn't immediately interrupt the two. He just quietly came behind Song Lei and whispered to her, "I'm here!" ”
Hearing her sweetheart's voice, Song Lei couldn't help but be secretly happy, and quickly turned around and glanced at him coquettishly and said, "You finally know that the Dao has appeared!" ”
Xiao Ping scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "I accidentally fell asleep just now, you are really, why don't you call me." ”
"I guessed you must be asleep." Song Lei said: "Zhilu Dao, you must be tired all the way, so let you rest for a while." ”
Although Xiao Pepper looked indifferent, Xiao Ping felt deep love from her words, and couldn't help but be very moved, and said to Song Lei with a smile: "In order to surprise you, what's the point of being tired." ”
"I know that I can tell people that I have a good sound." Song Lei wrinkled her nose cutely and said, "I heard Sister Yuxin say a while ago that you deceived a sister in Wuxi City again and asked someone to help you manage the seed base, right?" ”
Unexpectedly, even Song Lei knew about this, Xiao Ping was a little embarrassed and said: "How can this be called a lie, I am sincere to each of you!" ”
Although Song Lei has a straightforward temperament, she is not a stupid girl, and she can only stop this kind of thing on the spot, and if she doesn't hold it back, it will only make everyone unhappy. So she quickly changed the topic, sighed lightly and said, "Forget it, for the sake of you still taking Mei'er and me to heart, and knowing that Dao has surprised us, I won't bother with you about this." ”
Xiao Ping's words made Xiao Ping secretly relieved, and hurriedly smiled: "Yes, yes, let's not talk about this, how is the situation of your coming to Europe to promote the new film this time?" ”
Speaking of her and Hu Mei's career, Song Lei immediately became excited, and said to Xiao Ping with her eyebrows: "Mei'er is popular, she is very popular everywhere she goes, and she already has a lot of fans!" This time you saw her walk the red carpet with your own eyes, in fact, she is about the same as this one when she is promoted! ”
After listening to Song Lei's words, Xiao Ping also nodded with deep satisfaction: "Mei'er is indeed becoming more and more of an international star, no wonder she is so popular." Of course, thanks to your wholehearted help to Mei'er, otherwise her career would not have progressed so fast. ”
Seeing that Xiao Ping praised Hu Mei and did not forget to praise herself, Song Lei was also very happy. She was about to say something to her sweetheart, but a man interrupted: "You are Miss Hu's agent, my boss wants to talk to Miss Hu alone, you hurry up and arrange it, and Miss Hu will go to see my boss after the cocktail party!" ”
This person looked like no one in his eyes, and his tone of voice was also very unpolite, as if Song Lei had to listen to his arrangement. This made Xiao Ping frown, and he was very dissatisfied with this person's behavior. If it weren't for the fear that his rash intervention in this matter might make it difficult for Song Lei, Xiao Ping would have been rude to this guy a long time ago.
However, Xiao Ping obviously underestimated Song Lei's fiery temper, and Xiao Pepper immediately frowned and said, "Miss Hu never meets anyone alone, let alone she doesn't know your boss at all." I don't care who your boss is, tell him to dispel the mess as soon as possible. ”
Although Song Lei rejected the man's request, he did not leave immediately, but smiled with disdain: "My boss has money, let's say, how much does it cost Miss Hu to agree to my request, say a number, and I will write a check to you immediately." ”
Song Lei was really angry, and no longer explained anything to the other party, but just shouted coldly: "Get out!" ”
Unexpectedly, Song Lei did not back down, and the man was also angry, and threatened her in a low voice with a cruel smile: "My boss hates others to reject him the most, you had better think carefully before making a decision!" ”
"I'll kill your boss!" Xiao Pepper glanced at the other party hatefully, and then said to Xiao Ping in Chinese: "If this bastard pesters me again, he will beat him!" ”
Xiao Ping had long seen that this guy was unpleasant, and was waiting for Song Lei's words. Wen Yan immediately smiled and nodded heavily to Pepper, indicating that he understood what she meant.
Although the guy couldn't understand Chinese, he also guessed that Song Lei was asking Xiao Ping for help. He sneered and was about to open his mouth to warn Xiao Ping not to meddle in his affairs, but Xiao Ping had already made the first move and slapped this guy in the face.
The man felt as if he had been hit head-on by a bus, and a tremendous force caused him to fly involuntarily and then slam a table. Amid the screams of several female guests, the guy knocked over the table and tumbled to the ground, then spat out several bloody back molars from one mouth.
Xiao Ping knew that this guy wanted to pimp his boss, and this slap took a lot of strength. This man was just an ordinary person, and of course he was beaten into a rolling gourd.
dares to beat people on such occasions, I'm afraid Xiao Ping is also the first. For a moment, all the eyes of the surrounding guests fell on him, and everyone had a look of wariness and contempt on their faces.
However, Xiao Ping thought of the reason before he started, and at this time he didn't pay attention to other eyes at all, but with an expression of righteous indignation, he shouted to the man who was still on the ground and didn't get up with a sense of justice: "Don't harass this young lady, otherwise you will be unkind!" ”
In order to cooperate with Xiao Ping's words, Song Lei also looked at the man with disgust. Just by looking at Pepper's expression, the surrounding guests guessed what had just happened. At this moment, everyone's attitude immediately changed one hundred and eighty degrees, and their attitude towards Xiao Ping was much closer, but the eyes of that man were full of contempt.
According to the Western tradition, ladies are always treated more preferentially. Especially at such a high-profile drinking party, even if a man covets a woman, he will pretend to be polite and not show it viciously. It is not surprising that this man would harass a young girl on such an occasion, and that he would be despised.
Surrounded by the contemptuous gazes of others, this man also knew that this dumb man was destined to suffer today. He didn't have the face to stay here for a long time, so he stood up and said to Xiao Ping indignantly: "Don't go, I'll let the boss come and talk to you in person!" ”
After saying this, the man covered his face and hurried away. (To be continued......)
