Chapter 260: Xuan's wife
Yunxi didn't expect that her mother said that it was someone she didn't expect, and she really didn't expect that it would be him!
Looking at Grantham, who was sitting on the sofa with a gentle expression and elegant demeanor, Yunxi was a little suspicious, was the man who had been silent and quiet in that beach villa yesterday the same person as the person in front of him?
"Why are you here?" Yunxi half-raised his eyebrows and walked down the stairs in surprise.
What she meant by this was actually very curious, Shui Mulian's birthday party had just ended, why did Grantham suddenly come to City B. It's just that to Zhang Cui's ears, this is not the case.
Zhang Cui couldn't help frowning, "Yunxi, why are you talking like this?" "The person who comes is a guest, no matter how you say it, Yunxi shouldn't be like this.
Yunxi knew that Zhang Cui was a little misunderstood, thinking that she was not waiting to see guests. But she was so amazed that she didn't care to explain anything for a while.
On the contrary, Grantham smiled calmly, and his eyes were moist, which made people feel as if they had been washed with spring water, elegant and clear.
"Auntie, Yunxi just didn't expect me to come to visit suddenly. She went to my sister's birthday specifically, but I didn't do my best landlord friendship, and to put it mildly, I didn't do a good job. There were a lot of people that day, I didn't care about it, I was just about to come to City B, so I came to visit by the way, and I didn't make an appointment with her beforehand. "Grantham has been a diplomatic player for many years. Obviously it was just on the scene, but when he said this, there was a rare feeling of sincerity and ironing. Rao is Zhang Cui is used to seeing all kinds of characters, and she has to admit that it is really rare for such a young man to have such a calm and comfortable temperament.
Yunxi's mind turned, and he heard the meaning of his words. Obviously, he didn't sue her mother about Qiao Lao and CHRISTINA. In other words, although he wanted her to help, he would not take advantage of her mother's sympathy.
Thinking of the villa room, the graceful and luxurious Xu Airong had a contemplative and helpless expression, and Yunxi still had some sympathy in the end.
For Grantham, CHRISTINA had nothing to do with him at all, but his mother's idea was to let him fly over and ask her for help again.
Looking at Zhang Cui's angry expression on her face, Yunxi smiled helplessly and shrugged her shoulders: "It's me who is wrong, I apologize." Grantham, sit down for a moment, I'll change my clothes and come down later. "There is a drinking party to attend today, just now she thought that Qiao Zimo came so early, and her mother was teasing her, so she just put on a robe and came down. It doesn't matter if you see Qiao Zimo's dress, but when you see an ordinary male guest, it's really a bit inappropriate.
After changing into regular clothes, when Yunxi came down, she happened to hear Grantham talking to her mother about how they met by chance, and how they cooperated to invest in the expansion of "Gu Yuxuan", accompanied by Zhang Cui's loving smile, Yunxi reluctantly led Grantham to the garden.
Along the way, Grantham quietly looked at every part of the cold house, and seemed to be full of a rare curiosity about this mansion. But, more than that, he was observing. It took a quarter of an hour for Yunxi to finally determine what the sparkle in Grantham's eyes meant.
It's just that for Grantham, who is accustomed to seeing all kinds of retro buildings in Europe and all kinds of residential alleys in City B, Grantham would show such a rare look, Yunxi is really puzzled.
"What's wrong with you?" Yunxi asked the staff to bring two cups of tea, asked for some cookies, and sat under the parasol, and then opened his mouth.
"I've always been curious about what your home is like, but I didn't expect it to be like this..." Grantham froze for a moment, as if deliberating on what words to use to describe the feeling. It's a pity that he is not a native of China after all, and he always feels that subtle feeling is on the tip of his tongue, but he still can't say it.
"It's ordinary." Yunxi was stunned. Although her family background is better than that of ordinary people, compared to the private island that the little girl who gave Shui Mulian casually in his family, she really belongs to the kind of ordinary people.
Grantham glanced at her for a long time, but then smiled and changed the subject: "I heard you're going to a drinking party tonight?" ”
"Well, I haven't asked what I did when I accompanied Qiao Zimo." Yunxi nodded indispensably, since he didn't want to say, she didn't have any reason to ask again. Lately, I've always felt like Grantham was a bit weird. Especially, it was when he had just sat with her mother. It always felt, it seems, that something was wrong. But where, she couldn't say.
Yawning lazily, Yunxi wondered if he had been too tired lately, and he felt a bit of a conspiracy theory when he watched everything.
"You're going to Hong Kong tomorrow?" Grantham's deep eyes suddenly looked straight at her, and at this moment, all the careless disguises were washed away, and the topic finally got to the point.
Yunxi took a sip of tea, sighed slightly in his heart, and finally decided to sell him face. "THAT'S HOW YOU WANT TO HELP CHRISTINA?"
"I only want to fulfill one wish for my mother." Grantham lifted the teacup in front of him and smiled, the fog in his eyes lifting, and gradually revealing a touch of helplessness.
Now that it has been said that this is the case, Yunxi naturally cannot shirk it anymore. When Grantham helped her during the three months in Europe, he didn't hesitate.
"Okay, that's on me. I'll ask someone to book your ticket for tomorrow, and we'll go to Hong Kong together. "ANYWAY, SHE HAS NO DIRECT STAKE IN CHRISTINA, AS LONG AS SHE CAN BRING DOWN QIAO LAO, SHE WON'T CARE TOO MUCH ABOUT WHAT MEANS SHE USES.
"Thank you." Grantham took a sip of his tea, stood up, and looked around, the expression on his face calm and gentle. "I'll go back to the hotel first, and I'll wait for your call tomorrow."
Yunxi nodded and took him to the door of the house, until he sent the person away and returned to the living room, only to see Zhang Cui looking at her with a regretful expression.
"What's wrong? Something on my face? Yunxi subconsciously touched his face, but was pulled down by Zhang Cui angrily: "It's broken, you haven't grown a flower on your face." ”
"Then why are you looking at me with a strange expression?" Of course, Yunxi didn't grow a rare flower on her face until she didn't have a famous flower, but Zhang Cui's expression just now was so strange that she was a little uncomfortable herself.
"I just think it's a little weird that Grantham looked at you just now."
Yunxi waved his hand: "Don't think too much. Your daughter and I are not money, everyone loves me. He and I have a pure friendship. ”
The corners of Zhang Cui's mouth moved, and in the end, she didn't say anything, but she felt more and more, is it a relationship between falling in love, and Yunxi's recent personality is becoming more and more extroverted? How to write the word "implicit", have you forgotten it completely? She just said that Grantham's eyes were a little strange, not that his eyes meant admiration!
Yunxi didn't pay much attention to her mother's complicated feelings, but ate the last bit of pastry, went upstairs and turned on the computer directly, and inquired about the recent stock market situation.
Most of the afternoon, I basically stayed in the study, watching the developments in Europe and the United States, and at the same time not forgetting to pay attention to the latest developments in Hong Kong at any time.
Sure enough, at four o'clock in the afternoon, I received news that Qiao Lao had come out of the police station safely, but as for CHRISTINA, her whereabouts were unknown .......
Yunxi's brows couldn't help but furrow.
It's just that before I had time to think about it, Qiao Zimo's call had already arrived.
"Are you ready? I'll be waiting for you downstairs. A hoarse, slightly magnetic voice came from the phone, and at first glance, half of the body could be crispy. Yunxi lamented, it's only four o'clock, which door of wine will start so early?
But her fingers were almost self-conscious, and before she could come back to her senses, she was already shuttling through the cloakroom and began to choose tonight's dress.
Yunxi, who went downstairs in a simple white dress, made Qiao Zimo's eyes darken instantly.
The next moment, he got up with a smile and slowly walked in front of her: "I heard that you will leave for Hong Kong tomorrow?" ”
The people around me all listen to the four directions and see all directions. In this case, Yunxi chose to smile and smile again.
Sister-in-law Li had already hidden outside with great eyes, leaving only the two of them to whisper.
When she went out, Yunxi found that she and Qiao Zimo's grand clothes, walking on the road casually, could immediately be sent to the rhythm of the circle of friends.
"Let's go get something to eat first, I don't think I have much time to eat in the evening." Although the meals are extremely exquisite, in the end, not many can enter the stomachs of the guests.
Yunxi nodded and chose a seafood bean fishing shop.
To be honest, she simply has a soft spot for hot pot. Fortunately, Qiao Zimo has no taboos, the two of them chose a private room, and they ate seafood white soup pot, without any oil smoke.
After feasting, it was already the beginning of the lanterns, and it was only half an hour before the start of the drinking party.
In terms of the traffic in City B, they could never have arrived early by car.
It was only at this time that Yunxi felt Qiao Zimo's foresight.
Looking at the entrance to the drinking party in front of her, which was almost blocked, if she didn't know that this was a diplomatic event, she would have doubted which Hollywood masterpiece held its premiere in Beijing.
Most of the people who came were dressed in a very low-key manner, with a frank expression but a noble atmosphere. The smile on his lips seems to have never left, but the smile in his eyes makes it impossible to guess the depth.
It's a different world from the business world.
However, fortunately, my grandfather is also a figure in this circle, and my father and uncle are also extraordinary.
What's more, tonight, her flower messenger is still Qiao Zimo.
Yes, Qiao Zimo.
If before, she only remembered Qiao Zimo's extraordinary appearance when she saw Zhuo Fengzhuo's eldest son, then tonight, judging from the courtesy she received, he was simply the real uncrowned emperor of the whole drinking party!
Regardless of gender, young or old, the first time I saw her, my eyes were filled with deep amazement, and then, it was full of exploration and irrepressible amazement.
Yes.
For a character like Qiao Zimo, as long as it is a character in the circle, who has never marveled at what kind of woman such a stunning and gorgeous character will find.
didn't expect that his first appearance would be so high-profile.
Almost, equatefully, directly placing his woman in the most glamorous place for people to admire.
It's like demarcating a range and putting this woman in her protective circle.
He is introducing his woman to the most special class in the entire city B in the most straightforward and formal way!
Zhuo Feng walked in front of Yunxi, revealing the first "expected" expression tonight, "Leng Yunxi, do you know that from today onwards, you will become famous?" ”
"Do I have a 'war'?" Yunxi held a glass of champagne, indifferently looked at the prying eyes that looked around from time to time, and raised his head easily. She really didn't expect that the purpose of Qiao Zimo inviting her to the drinking party was to bring her to appear.
Looking at the man beside him, who has always maintained a graceful and elegant appearance, Yunxi said that this person's domineering spirit is simply speechless.
Let's give her a little mental preparation.
As soon as she came out of the hot pot restaurant, she staged such a play for her!
"Do you believe it, after you go back today, tomorrow your eighteenth generation ancestors will be found out." Zhuo Feng said that his brother has true love, and he sincerely blesses it, but this kind of indiscriminate show of affection and treatment makes people grit their teeth with hatred! Don't you see, is he still alone now? Is he so proud of himself? Proud?
Yunxi smiled indifferently, his expression calm and leisurely, "Dare to check me?" He has to have that ability. ”
Her big family is famous for protecting calves, not to mention the iron-blooded old man in her family. Eighteen generations of ancestors? At most, it's her grandfather's generation! Who dares to check it again! Weigh yourself and weigh yourself!
This arrogance is simply sweeping thousands of armies.
I have to say that Leng Yunxi's words are indeed the case....
How many people present dared to straighten their waists and confront the general of the Leng family?
Qiao Zimo listened, looked at Zhuo Feng, and suddenly smiled. In an instant, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloomed .......
Zhuo Feng finally understood that Qiao Zimo was not here to swear sovereignty, this guy was here to show off his wife at all!
"Eh, do you see? Even Zhuo Dagongzi knows him, and it seems that she is really Qiao Zimo's girlfriend. Tiny fragments of voices came and went around the corners. If at the beginning, people's eyes were still a little inquisitive and gossipy, then at this moment, seeing Zhuo Fengdu and Leng Yunxi standing together talking and laughing, even with a hint of familiarity and kindness, everyone completely weighed her weight in their hearts.
"I heard that it is an upstart in the business world, with several listed companies in hand, and even overseas assets." The people who can occupy a place at this drinking party are by no means ordinary citizens. Some people who are familiar with the dynamics of the business world have provided first-hand information.
"The status will definitely not be low, otherwise, can Gongzi Qiao be able to see it?" Someone laughed in a low voice, and others looked over in surprise, but he stopped talking, and immediately walked towards Yunxi and their .......
This night, Yunxi was almost introduced to the insiders he frequented by Qiao Zimo.
It's like announcing the relationship to the whole world.
It wasn't until she returned to the cold house that she reacted.
This man is really a good city! There is no room for her to regret it, and it will be revealed to the world just like this!
For a while, I had a fluke feeling, fortunately, I was going to Hong Kong soon, otherwise, I would have to be stared at by a certain class in City B!
On the second day of the reception, Yunxi was personally sent to the airport by Qiao Zimo.
As Grantham approached with her luggage, the two men looked at each other and smiled, and then, looking away, finally landed on her. It's just that one stayed at the airport and watched her board the plane, while the other boarded the flight to Hong Kong with her.
Next to her stood a trendy woman with dyed purple hair, who witnessed the whole process. He looked at her almost with a gaze of extreme envy.
Yunxi was very helpless, and even more speechless. I really want to tell her, "Girl, don't YY, the one at the airport is my decent boyfriend." We're on a business trip, a business trip! ”
