Representatives of several companies had already arrived in the multi-purpose hall of the hotel. On this occasion, everyone is familiar with the wine glasses handed by the waiter who shuttles through the crowd, greets each other, and exchanges business cards.

Yu Qi followed Diana step by step, cooperating with her.

Suddenly, Yu Qi saw a familiar and unfamiliar face in the crowd. Her face turned pale all of a sudden, and she almost cried out, "Tian Ci!" She felt as if all the strength in her body had suddenly been drained, and her high heels were crooked. Fortunately, Diana reached out in time to help her when she was about to fall.

"What's wrong?" Diana asked, frowning.

"It's nothing, I didn't stand firm all of a sudden." Yu Qi desperately squeezed out all the strength of her body to regain her footing, and replied to Diana with a wry smile.

"That's not right! Your face is very bad...... If you don't want to say it, come on, let's go outside and take a break and get some fresh air. Although Diana didn't like the subordinates she admired had something to hide from her. But he was very understanding, and helped her to the lounge area outside the hall and sat down.

Yu Qi felt that Diana's eyes were full of inquiry when she looked at her. She knew that Diana was waiting for her to take the initiative to explain. However, she didn't want to say anything at this time.

She trusted Diana and has always been grateful for Diana's cultivation of her. Including bringing her as an intern to this kind of occasion, she was full of gratitude to Diana. However, this is her private matter and has nothing to do with work.

On top of that, she didn't know how to explain her gaffe to Diana. She was afraid that the more she tried to explain, the harder it would be to make sense. Because of her relationship with Meng Tianxiang, it is not something that can be said clearly.

Yu Qi's eyes looked through the open door and saw that there was a young girl standing next to Meng Tianxiang, and the two looked very close. She saw that Meng Tianxiang always maintained a faint smile on his face, and he had been quietly introducing the guests at the banquet to this girl. She even saw him glance at himself outside the door. However, he quickly looked away. Didn't recognize her at all. Her heart broke like a "**** pearl" that was stepped on. Oddly enough: after the rupture, she didn't feel heartache.

After the awards. Yu Qi followed Diana to the banquet hall, and she couldn't help but glance at the restaurant. Sure enough, Meng Tianxiang was still there. He sat at the second table next to her with the girl from just now.

Before the dinner party began, Yu Qi came to the bathroom, flushed his face, and calmed down. Then he pulled out the tissue hanging on the wall, dried his face, and walked out of the bathroom.

As soon as she walked to the corridor, she was surprised to see Meng Tianxiang standing in front of her with his hands in his trouser pockets, expressionless, as if suppressing the excitement in her heart.

"Hello, Kiki." Meng Tianxiang stretched out his right hand that was inserted in his trousers just now, and greeted her with a smile.

"Ah...... Hello. Yu Qi responded with some rustiness. Her expression was a little stiff, and she choked on her trachea with a mouthful of saliva, coughing painfully.

Meng Tianxiang supported her with one hand and patted her back with the other, Yu Qi straightened out that tone, and tried to suppress her indescribable and unclear mood, "Our company donated a lot last year, and I came with our boss to participate in the ......" Yu Qi said, thinking of Meng Tianxiang's gentle expression towards the girl next to him just now, his heart was a little sour.

"I also came with my colleagues." Meng Tianxiang explained disappreciatively.

Oh, it turned out to be a colleague. Yu Qi somehow, there was a little joy in her heart.

"I didn't expect to meet you here." Meng Tianxiang sighed softly.

"I was shocked when I saw you just now. I didn't expect you to be here. Meng Tianxiang explained with some pleasure. And, moreover, it's ...... I almost didn't recognize you. ”

"Do you still live at the school in Matsue?" Meng Tianxiang seemed to have a thousand words to tell the person in front of him, and after a moment of silence, he panicked and asked without a head.

"Hmm." Yu Qi nodded lightly.

"That'...... After the dinner, I'll wait for you to go with you! Meng Tianxiang saw Yu Qi's hesitation, and then explained, "I also work in Songjiang, so let's send you back to school by the way." You're not dressed like this, it's not suitable for crowding the subway! ”

"It's okay, go back and take a taxi today, the company should be able to reimburse you." Yu Qi tried to tactfully reject Meng Tianxiang.

"You hate me so much that you don't want to stay with me?" Meng Tianxiang looked at Yu Qi with painful eyes, and roared in a somewhat injured voice.

"No, it's not...... Yu Qi thought of Meng Tianxiang's confession to her before, and she could only continue to muster up the courage to reject him. We said we'd see each other again! ”

Hearing this, Meng Tianxiang clenched the fist hanging down from his legs, stopped speaking, turned around, and walked to the banquet hall alone.

Yu Qi looked at his trembling back, and silently thought in his heart: Hey, I believe that what you said when you were emotional was true, and the promises you made were also true. It's just that I can only fail you - why start when we already know that the ending is not going to be perfect? After all, there are not many good things in life.

Yu Qi took a deep breath and sorted out her mood. sat back next to Diana.

When you're young, people always start with nothing and end with a lot of heartache. And we who grow up and mature, avoid the harm of childishness, but we also miss the courage to start. And that's what we're ripe for.

Towards the end of the dinner, everyone left the table in twos and threes. Diana and Yu Qi were in front of the hotel, waiting in line for a taxi. Meng Tianxiang also came out with his female assistant, and he accompanied the assistant in line gentlemanly.

Meng Tianxiang, who was behind Yu Qi, deliberately enthusiastically reminisced with Yu Qi. Then I greeted Diana and chatted a few words. He sincerely asked Diana to reassure him that he would send Yu Qi back to school, and handed Diana the business card as proof.

"Did I wear too much makeup today?" Yu Qi felt that the quiet atmosphere in the car was a little suffocating. Seeing Meng Tianxiang driving without saying a word, his fingers kept tapping lightly on the steering wheel. She deliberately found a topic, "I think to attend this kind of formal occasion, I always need to wear a dress, jewelry, and makeup." ”

"No, your makeup is just right." He slowed down the car, turned a corner, turned his face sideways, looked at Yu Qi and smiled slightly, "For me, whether you wear makeup or not, wear a dress or professional attire, in my heart, you are always the most beautiful and moving girl." ”

Yu Qi was a little uneasy when she heard this, and the atmosphere seemed to become more awkward.

She knew that because of Meng Tianci's relationship, his parents would definitely not be able to accept the two of them being together in the end. So, she repeatedly told him that they could only be best friends and that's it.

Now Meng Tianxiang is still obsessed with her, she is very helpless, she doesn't want to delay his youth.
