It's not that he can't hear Ran Xixi's reluctantly agreeing tone, but Zhan Xingchuan just likes this kind of look where she has no choice but to nod her head in agreement, which makes him feel a sense of accomplishment, as if he has taken a big advantage.

After thinking about it, Zhan Xingchuan still thoughtfully added: "I'll try to go over early, in case you really can't leave, you can eat first, squint for a while after eating, don't wait for me." ”

He was worried that the evening party would not be easy to slip away, and she would not know it at that time, and it would be really hard to wait until late with a stupid hungry stomach.

Ran Xixi let out an "oh", because she knew that he had been busy lately and was not pretending, so she didn't say anything, put down the phone and prepared to go out. Before leaving, she also specially asked Sister-in-law Chen for advice on how to pick fish to be fresher.

"Hey, do you want to drink fish soup? I asked Da Chen to buy it, and he is very good at buying it!"

Sister-in-law Chen wiped her hands and was about to call someone.

Ran Xixi hurriedly stopped her, said no again and again, and then explained with some embarrassment: "I'll just buy it myself." ”

When she left, Sister-in-law Chen immediately went to Sister Li to gossip.

As soon as the two met, they immediately concluded that Ran Xixi was going to buy fish to make soup for Zhan Xingchuan to replenish their bodies, and they couldn't help but be overjoyed, feeling that this was a good sign.

"Hey, whose man isn't distressed? You see Mr. Zhan's face is really bad lately!"

"Yes. If you want me to say, don't be shy, give each other a step, and the two of them will remarry quickly, which is good for Rui Rui!"

Sister-in-law Chen and Sister Li, you said everything I said, and their faces were full of smiles.

Ran Xixi went straight to the supermarket, she thought about it for a while, and felt that since the next time she cooked, it would be a little shabby to only cook fish soup, and two adults would not be able to eat at all. So, she bought some meat and vegetables at random, planning to make a few home-cooked dishes.

Carrying a big bag of things, when she walked into the "puppet", she was a little embarrassed. Fortunately, the manager of the club should have received a call from Zhan Xingchuan in advance, personally came down to greet her, and sent her all the way to the upstairs guest room, with a very courteous attitude, and repeatedly told her that if she needed anything, just make a phone call, and send someone to send her over immediately.

As a result, Ran Xixi was even more embarrassed.

After entering the door, putting down her things, she glanced at the time and breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, there is plenty of time, you can take your time.

Although she doesn't wash her hands often to make soup, simple meals are still difficult for Ran Xixi, but she is not used to the kitchen here, and it is inevitable that she will be a little busy.

After tossing for nearly an hour, the fish soup has been cooked, and the other dishes have been washed and cut, just waiting to be stir-fried in the pot.

She thought that Zhan Xingchuan had said on the phone before that he still had a party tonight, and it wouldn't be too early, so she wasn't in a hurry, she played with her mobile phone alone, and then simply played a game.

Time passed inadvertently, and before you knew it, it was completely dark outside.

When she threw away the game controller, her stomach was already rumbling with hunger, Ran Xixi went to the kitchen and found that the fish soup had been cooked, she turned down the heat, continued to simmer, grabbed a washed cucumber, and gnawed slowly.

Obviously, she could have eaten first, but she didn't want to, she still wanted to wait.

Waiting for a person to come back for dinner does feel like a year.

Before leaving, Kong Miaomiao repeatedly confirmed to Zhan Xingchuan: "You really don't need me to accompany you?

Zhan Xingchuan looked at the mirror, adjusted his bow tie, and nodded with a smile: "That's right." Wouldn't it be good to let you leave work early?"

As if she didn't believe it, she pouted: "Overtime is the norm, and getting off work on time is a perversion! I'm worried that you have found some indiscriminate woman to be your female companion behind your back, and you will lose the face of the Zhan family!"

His hand moved, and he said embarrassedly, "Am I that bad?"

Kong Miaomiao sneered: "Those women were all sent by me with checks, because of you, I received several big slaps." ”

It seems that the events of that year are really indelible black history.

Zhan Xingchuan coughed twice: "You think too much, I plan to slip away in advance, take you with me, it's not easy to slip." ”

After speaking, he paused, and said quite proudly: "The beauty has an appointment, I'll deal with it and leave." ”

Kong Miaomiao's eyes immediately widened, she reacted for two seconds, and finally understood, and immediately smiled: "Ah, then go quickly, go early and leave early, remember to drink less!"

She happily pushed Zhan Xingchuan out of the door, urging him to leave quickly, wishing that he could conjure a handkerchief in his hand, dance with the wind, and turn into an old bustard.

Just like Sister-in-law Chen and Sister Li, Kong Miaomiao thinks that these two people are developing in a good direction, and maybe it won't be long before they remarry.

Not only her, but even Zhan Xingchuan himself got into the car proudly.

After so many days of hard work, the date of the final bidding has been set, just a few days later. Regardless of the outcome, as long as the bidding is over, the whole company can breathe a sigh of relief and end the endless overtime.

Therefore, Zhan Xingchuan is in a good mood.

If he can win against Lu Qinghuan, he will be in a better mood.

By the time Zhan Xingchuan arrived at the hotel, many people had already arrived in advance, chatting in twos and threes, and the atmosphere at the scene was very lively.

Tonight's cocktail party is held by a very popular person in the industry, and it has almost become a fixed show, almost twice a year, and everyone is also very face-saving, and everyone who can come will come, including Zhan Xingchuan.

Otherwise, he would have pushed it off and would rather go home and sleep than come here to kill time.

Not to mention, Ran Xixi is still waiting for him.

As soon as Zhan Xingchuan appeared, the banquet hall, which had been a little chaotic before, suddenly fell silent, and many people invariably looked at him with a hint of strangeness in their eyes.

Although he had long been accustomed to the gaze from the outside world, Zhan Xingchuan still sensed an indescribable pressure.

He raised an eyebrow and simply followed those gazes one by one.

As a result, the owners of their eyes hastily looked away, as if they did not dare to look at him again.

In this way, Zhan Xingchuan was even more puzzled, there were no flowers on his face, how could these people's reactions be so strange? As soon as they saw him, the kind of searching gaze cast over them was as if they were waiting to see a good show, which was inexplicably unpleasant.

looked around, and when he saw the very familiar figure standing next to his master, Zhan Xingchuan finally understood why everyone looked at him like that, it turned out to be like this.

It's really interesting, I don't know if it's intentional or unintentional, among the people invited, there are Zhan Xingchuan, and Joe Rachel.

The story of the twin sisters has been spreading on the Internet these days, and almost no one is unaware, so it's no wonder everyone is holding their breath and getting ready to see what happens next.

Although he was unhappy, Zhan Xingchuan still walked up calmly and greeted his master.

After all, the two have known each other for a long time, and their usual friendship is not bad, if they turn their faces because of such a trivial matter, it is neither worth it nor possible.

"Mr. Zhan, thank you for the reward!"

The master's expression was also a little unnatural, the person he originally invited was a high-ranking member of the Qiao family, not Qiao Rachel, but this woman didn't know where to get the invitation, and in front of so many people, he couldn't kick her out.

"You're in for a treat, how dare I not come?"

Zhan Xingchuan's face did not change, he entered with a smile, stretched out his fist, and touched the other party, which was regarded as a greeting.

Before he came here, he planned to just sit for a while and leave, and he wouldn't stay long, but seeing that Qiao Rachel was also there, Zhan Xingchuan was even more determined in this idea.

Unexpectedly, she came over quickly and took the initiative to toast.

"Seeing that you are proud, if nothing else, you should be very sure about the bidding that is about to begin. ”

Rachel Joe wore an over-the-knee black evening gown with retro makeup, and her red lips were slightly open, which was sexy. As she has been immersed in the fashion circle for many years, she never goes wrong with her public dress, always simple and generous, but unforgettable, the most classic is the pair of plump red lips, glamorous and vulgar.

"Whether you're sure or not, you can't cry when you come out to meet someone, right?"

Zhan Xingchuan didn't want to pay attention to her, but there were people everywhere, and on the surface, they were all doing their own things, but in fact, they all wanted to prick up their ears and listen to what the two of them were saying.

As a man, I am at a disadvantage in this regard, that is, in public, I can't be too rude to a woman.

Therefore, he still bowed his head lightly to Joe Rachel and answered.

Her eyes flowed, and the corners of her mouth smiled: "Being so modest is not like your usual style." The Zhan Xingchuan I heard of is a god of war, and he has always been invincible. ”

Zhan Xingchuan smiled: "God of war? ”

Rachel Joe immediately said, "God doesn't have seven emotions and six desires, of course it's not interesting. But people are different, love, hate, hatred, greed, madness, which one is not thrilling?"

After speaking, she stepped forward, approached Zhan Xingchuan, frowned slightly, and whispered again: "If you don't mind, let's go and talk to the side." These people are really annoying, all of them are sanctimonious, but in fact, they are all gossipy. ”

When she said this, she wrinkled her nose and showed a rare playful expression, which made Zhan Xingchuan slightly stunned, because Ran Xixi would also make this expression occasionally, especially when she was complaining about something.

It was hard for him to refuse such an expression, so he also nodded: "Okay." ”

The two of them walked to the balcony next to them, and Zhan Xingchuan took a bottle of wine and two glasses by the way.

Sure enough, as soon as they walked to the balcony where no one was around, the two of them felt that they were talking more freely, at least they didn't have to worry about the dozens of pairs of ears around them that were ready to eavesdrop at any time.

While Zhan Xingchuan was pouring the wine, Rachel Joe took out a cigarette and a lighter from her dinner bag and waved it at him, "Don't mind, right?"

He glanced at it and shook his head.

So, she lit a cigarette for herself and spit out a puff of smoke rings.

Handing her a wine glass, Zhan Xingchuan took a sip of wine before asking her, "Qiao Yanne knows you're here?"
