Chapter 6: Shadows
Before this, Diao Ranran never thought that this woman would come to him face to face and generously.
So many times before, she was sneaky, pretending to be a ghost to approach her, full of tricks. However, just now, she clearly appeared here in her real body, and took the initiative to say a few words...
Waited and waited, but there was still no sound behind the bushes.
I don't know how long it took, her patience was lost, Diao Ranran really couldn't hold it, she crossed her arms and tried to take a few steps forward tremblingly.
No one scolded her, so she was bold and walked to the back of the bushes in one go...
Actually...... No one?...
Diao Ranran looked left and right, making sure that there was no one around, but she was sure that the qiฤ just now was definitely a real thing, not her hallucination...
She moved her nose and vaguely smelled a faint scent in the wind.
Because of the research and development of "jealousy", Diao Ranran's nose is much more sensitive than in the past, and her understanding of various fragrances is also unimaginable before, so she smelled it at once, this is a perfume for women, or a very expensive one.
This shows that in this position, someone did stay for a period of time just now, which is not a short period of time.
It's her.
Even if she didn't see the face, the voice, the tone, made her very sure that it was her.
She really didn't die.
The official opening of Hengguang New City is undoubtedly an earth-shattering news for the China Shipping business community, which has been silent for nearly a year.
Everyone is waiting to see what kind of results a company that started as a real estate company will achieve after joining the department store industry, whether it will hand over a satisfactory answer sheet, or withdraw from this field that does not belong to it in the first place.
However, no one can give a definite answer except time.
As for Zhan Xingchuan himself, in fact, he is not too worried, there are indeed many large shopping malls in Zhonghai, but there are not many shopping malls like Hengguang New Town, which have almost built an indoor park.
Unlike other shopping malls, which are densely packed with counters and stores of major brands, the public area in Hengguang New Town is more than 40%, and these areas are divided into leisure areas, functional areas, viewing areas, etc., providing a number of completely free services. According to the business philosophy of Zhanxingchuan, you don't have to spend money to be satisfied when you go shopping, and in Hengguang New Town, even if the family doesn't spend a penny, you can have a good time here.
Of course, he does not hope that every guest will not spend money, but hopes to introduce a new shopping and consumption concept, so as to change the lives of Zhonghai people little by little.
As a businessman who regards money as his life, Zhan Xingchuan does not feel how noble he is, nor does he feel how great he is, he just wants to make money decently. Although money always smells of copper, he is willing to wash his hands carefully after counting the banknotes, so as not to smoke himself with the smell.
At six o'clock in the evening of the same day, Zhonghai Merchant Hotel, Zhan Xingchuan, as the host, invited many general agents of Zhonghai to settle in the brand, as well as some friends from the business community.
As the hostess, Diao Ranran naturally accompanied him to attend.
She is not overly publicized, but she doesn't need to be too low-key, in short, all of them are in line with their identity and the occasion, standing by Zhan Xingchuan's side, the two of them look extremely golden boys and girls, they are really a pair made in heaven.
Of course, in the endless praise, there are also some flavors that are out of flattery, not from sincerity. After all, Diao Ranran has passed the age of not distinguishing between truth and falsehood, so he simply didn't take those beautiful words to heart and laughed at them.
However, those eyes full of jealousy and envy still made her feel a little fluttery, in fact, women will still have a sense of satisfaction when they are superior to others of the same sex.
The people present are all business elites, who are the same age as Zhan Xingchuan, and most of them have young and beautiful female companions around them, they are well-behaved and sensible, neither talking much nor cold, they are all very decent girls.
In comparison, Wen Yitong is much more eye-catching.
Frankly speaking, after a few previous incidents, Diao Ranran's favor for her has fallen to the bottom, not just because she got Qiao Yanne, definitely not just a little bit. Instead, she finally understood that this kind of proud girl, this kind of girl from this kind of family, will always be high in her bones. Her red blood makes her despise the people around her, even if she can be friends with her and spend her days drinking, but in the end, she actually looks down on you.
Businessmen can never be on an equal footing with officials, as they were in ancient times and in modern times. Shinong businessmen, today's businessmen, even if they hold wealth, their status has not necessarily improved to any extent, and when they see officials, they are still inferior.
After realizing this, she didn't like Wen Yitong a little, because Diao Ranran knew that unequal personalities could not bring strong friendships, and so did love.
However, because of Zhan Xingchuan, she knew that she had no way to completely tear her face with Wen Yitong. What's more, there is also Qiao Yanne involved, she doesn't want to embarrass the four of them, and she doesn't want Zhan Xingchuan to misunderstand anything.
Their marriage is already fragile and not strong enough to withstand more misunderstandings and suspicions, and if it is sabotaged by someone with intentions, it will be even more shaky.
Although she was unhappy, when facing Wen Yitong, Diao Ranran was still as warm and thoughtful as possible.
"Ranran, congratulations, I'm getting married. You're my first friend to sue sรน, how about it, am I interested in you?"
As if nothing had happened, Wen Yitong held Diao Ranran's hand affectionately, stood aside with her, avoided the crowd, and said with a happy face.
Married? must be with Qiao Yanne.
Diao Ranran reacted immediately, and she "chuckled" in her heart, although it was not the kind of jealous acid, but it was also immediately a feeling that was not very pleasant. You must know that Qiao Yanne is the most disobedient kind of person, once he makes a mistake, no one can pull it back, he is now in trouble with his marriage, and he must hate those who persecute him in the future.
"Really, congratulations, when the time comes, Xingchuan and I will definitely go over to drink the wedding wine. โ
Diao Ranran suppressed the astringency in her heart and immediately pulled out a smile.
"There's no problem with drinking wine, it's just that I can only replace wine with tea...... Because, I have ......"
Wen Yitong suddenly showed a shy smile, took the initiative to take Diao Ranran's hand, led it to his still completely flat lower abdomen, and said softly.
She instinctively shivered twice as if she had been burned.
"Really, really, double happiness, this is a great thing......"
After speaking, Diao Ranran wanted to take her hand back, because she really didn't want to feel the little life close at hand with the palm of her hand, which was the child of Wen Yitong and Qiao Yanne... The child's father and her twin sisters also had a child, a child who never got to see the world...
Who knows, Wen Yitong tugged on her wrist hard, as if she didn't want her to withdraw her hand.
"You touch it, it's only been two months, but I'm already able to feel it... But don't you worry, I must be a mother a thousand times better than you, and I can protect her and let her come to this world safely, not like you, for the sake of my own pleasure and let my children suffer..."
Wen Yitong lowered his voice, raised his face, and said quickly in a very light volume.
Diao Ranran's face turned pale.
Wen Yitong let go of her hand suddenly, and she took two steps back, finally standing firmly.
Tonight, Qiao Yanne had other entertainment, and he didn't come.
Since he agreed to marry Wen Yitong, Qiao Rin has taken him more seriously than before, and many scenes of entertainment have been handed over to him. Probably, the purpose of this is also to give an explanation to the Wen family. After all, being the son-in-law of the Wen family must not be a straw bag, in the past, Qiao Yanne never took care of the family's business, and lost everything to the eldest brother Qiao Sijie, but now, he is about to get married, and he has to take on part of the family business to show the future father-in-law.
In this regard, Wen Yitong was naturally extremely excited. She is not short of money, but she has never disliked having a lot of money. Qiao Yanne was not motivated in the past, and she didn't know how to grab money, she was originally a little worried and unhappy. Now seeing that he is also making money decently, and is no longer as unscrupulous as in the past, she is naturally happy and feels that she has found the support for the rest of her life.
Pregnancy, marriage, naturally.
"I bless you with all my heart, so why should you humiliate me with what you have done in the past. โ
Diao Ranran stared at Wen Yitong, and her whole body tensed again.
But she is not stupid, she has kept a distance from Wen Yitong, although she can't believe that she will play with the life and death of her children in order to resent herself. However, after watching too many frame-up scenes between those women, Diao Ranran had to be vigilant and stay away from her, so as not to have an accident, even if she was full of mouths, she couldn't tell clearly.
Fortunately, Wen Yitong is now like a hen protecting eggs, although she is jealous of Diao Ranran, she will not joke with the child in her belly.
Because she knows very well that if the child is gone, and she doesn't say what will happen to others, Qiao Yanne will definitely not get married obediently.
"The past, it's the past for you, it's not the past for him... You must not have tasted how painful it is for the man you love the most to sleep next to you, shouting other women's names when you are confused... You'll understand what it's like until you've experienced it... By the way, Yukikawa has a woman he likes, but it's not you... I know, I just know... It's not you, it's not you, it's not you..."
A hint of smugness slipped across Wen Yitong's face, and he repeated it over and over again in a low voice.
