Chapter Seventy-Two: Waiting

Shui Mulian's eyes turned from Grantham's body to Situ Bai's mother's face, and after two rounds, she saw that her brother didn't react at all, but just turned her head sideways to talk to Gilt about things, and made sure that before coming to Hong Kong, the acquaintance that my brother said who knew Sister Yunxi was not this familiar grandmother.

She touched her head and felt a little dizzy in her head. Sister Yunxi said that Brother Qiao Zimo has returned to City B, so can't she tell him a secret?

At this moment, Situ Bai, who was struggling for time, finally got through the fifteen minutes of torment, and let her rest for half an hour, almost making her burst into tears.

As soon as he got off the stage, he complained to Yunxi in the past, Yunxi was talking to Cris, and waved his hand, "There are still a few days, comrade, work hard, and strive to win the position of the company's chief supermodel in one fell swoop." "When you have fame, the most important thing is to seize the moment. In the entertainment industry, there is no shortage of handsome men and beautiful women, and what is most lacking is opportunity. Szeto Pak is one of the hottest topics in Hong Kong right now, and there has never been a better opportunity to get more results with half the effort than this fashion show.

Situ Bai looked up at the male model who was standing and resting on the edge of the glass mirror, and he inevitably felt a little stage fright. In the past, the ignorant were fearless, and the newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, but after grinding it out in the past two days, he suddenly felt that he was stiff both in step and expression.

Looking back, he saw that Grantham was actually there, and couldn't help but touch Yunxi's arm: "Why is the earl here too?" ”

"I asked him to help." Yunxi pointed to the sweat on her head, took a towel for her, and saw that the topic of Grantham and gilt about jade designers was almost over, so he said to Situ Bai: "I announced before the final of the competition that the winner of the championship will become the spokesperson of both the CRIS brand and the British jewelry brand. Grantham was originally a shareholder of 'Gu Yuxuan', so let him help you finalize the endorsement style, and I can rest assured. ”

Situ Bai's style is not the kind of bright and charming Western style, British jewelry tends to be introverted, and "Gu Yuxuan" is a combination of tradition, so when Gilt proposed to hire a new jade designer, she wanted to take advantage of the peak momentum of the clothing conference, and at the same time hit the jewelry endorsement, killing two birds with one stone.

Situ Bai nodded, Yunxi seems to be born with a talent that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve in terms of management, she has seen her go through the ups and downs of the mall so many times along the way, and she has long been accustomed to listening to her decision-making, but she only feels that the pressure on her shoulders is a little heavier, and the rest has no ideas. When I looked back, I saw a pink and tender dumpling standing next to my mother, and I suddenly got up and ran over to tease the little girl.

At the end of the day, Cris, and Yunxi basically finalized the specific process of the fashion show, and the seating table for the banquet guests was also arranged. Gilt and Grantham made an appointment to select jade designers on Monday, and as for Shui Mulian, she was quite an elder, which won the favor of Situ Bai's mother, and even won a small jade pendant on the spot. After a day of practice, Situ Bai, who was so tired that she collapsed to the ground, had to admire this little girl's sweet words, and even her mother could coax her mother to give away all the jade pendants that only relatives in the family could have.

The business was almost over, and everyone was going to go out to dinner together, but Grantham smiled at everyone with a faint hesitation on his face: "I'm sorry, I made an appointment tonight, and I will invite everyone to join me next time." ”

Situ Bai was ordered to go on a diet for the whole week, so it didn't matter, he shrugged his shoulders and went to the roof of the practice room to practice yoga, but he touched Yunxi's arm with gild: "Do you know who he has dated?" "It's amazing that Grantham actually made an appointment for dinner beforehand. She thought that as soon as Qiao Zimo left, he would definitely take advantage of the void.

Yunxi patted her face: "You've only been in Hong Kong for a few days, how can you do your best to spread the truth, and you're gossiping more and more?" "It's normal to ask someone to eat, who stipulated that he should go around them at all?

Shui Mulian naturally followed her brother, and after reluctantly saying goodbye to everyone, she was invited by Grantham to send the hotel car back to the hotel directly, and after ordering the guest room to deliver food, she gently rubbed her hair: "Good, go back and eat well, my brother must go back before nine o'clock." Call me if you have something. ”

Shui Mulian knew that he would definitely go to see that acquaintance tonight, so she didn't make trouble, nodded and followed the driver to the car and went back to the hotel.

After she left, Grantham hailed a taxi and drove to Victoria Harbour.

As night fell, the wind was cold, but the people of Hong Kong Island were getting more and more lively, and in a bustling bar, Grantham saw the man in a black trench coat that blended with the night, sitting in the corner, with a glass of Olympic on the table.

Grantham walked through the crowd, his eyes swept over the glass of wine, a shadow flashing between his brows. It's a summer-perfect cocktail, but it's not the right thing for the season. Originally, it was made to commemorate the Olympic Games held in Paris in 1900. The orange citrus wine tastes bitter, the sweetness of the orange juice does not steal the show, and the mellow and rich brandy controls the whole tone, just like the hero on the playing field, first bitter and then sweet, and success is in hand.

Therefore, "it" also has another name - bitter and sweet.

The man sat in the corner, but he still couldn't resist the amazing stares of the whole bar, a woman in a gorgeous burgundy short dress, beautiful appearance, exquisite makeup, a smile on her lips like the sun on the beach, which made people's hearts move when they looked at it. At this moment, the woman in red took a glass of fruit wine, sat opposite the man, and said softly: "Can I invite you to have a drink?" The voice was low and beautiful, with a French style, but the moment the man opposite looked up, the hand holding the wine glass suddenly tightened, and his eyes trembled, as if he was shocked by the scorching demeanor in front of him.

"I don't drink the wine that women ask for." Chen Hao opened his eyes and looked at her expressionlessly. There was no aftertaste in his eyes, as if he was looking at a lamp on the side of the road, or a chair, with an uninhibited expression and a cold face. A button was unbuttoned at the collar, and the light seemed to covet his skin, reflecting the bronza of his neck obliquely. Abstinence pervades his body, making him want to crawl to his side and carefully unbutton his next button, revealing his sexy collarbone.

Looking at the girl's obsessive expression, Chen Hao lowered his head and took a sip of wine, and a gloom flashed between his eyebrows. The girl's fingers trembled, and she only felt that the person was frowning and faintly exuding a sense of evil. But at this moment, she didn't dare to move.

This person, no matter what way he came from, I'm afraid she can't afford to provoke him. Although she looks like a demonic person, she has a kind of nobility that rejects people thousands of miles away, which faintly makes her feel inferior.

The girl took a deep breath and walked away. She can't afford to provoke this person, so it's better to stay away and be safer.

"She's gone?" Chen Hao looked up and watched Grantham, who was standing on the side, walk to the table and sit down, his lips just pulled an arc, and it disappeared in an instant.

Grantham looked at him deeply, and knew that he was not talking about the beautiful lady in red just now, "Well, I just went back to the villa with the gilded woman." Qiao Zimo is gone, Yunxi naturally goes back to live in the villa. He waited until they were all gone.

"Yes." Chen Hao nodded, then stopped talking, his eyes lazily looked at the crowd of demons dancing on the dance floor, with a touch of sarcasm on his lips, but he didn't know whether to laugh at himself or whom.

Grantham ordered a glass of brandy and looked at the dance floor as if he was a little distracted, "If you care about her, why should you avoid her?" "No matter what means Yunxi used to remove the crisis in the end, after the Leng family's accident, in those three months, the reason why the matter has not been settled, leaving room for Yunxi to turn over, Xiao Ran and Chen Hao are the key. If even the most complicated struggles can intervene, why, after the dust settles, do they just stay in the shadows and avoid seeing them?

Chen Hao looked up at him, his gaze was cold, as if he had ice in his mouth, but he smiled miserably in an instant. The smile was too sad and lonely, and even Grantham's heart that was only ready to meet and leave inevitably sank.

He knew that Chen Hao took care of Leng Yunxi in every way, and even vaguely looked around in some dark places. However, it seems that there is a knot between this man who is willing to pay and Yunxi that cannot be untied. When Yunxi was in the American hospital, because he was injured by a gunshot, he had seen Zhan Wenlan's careful care, and he had also seen his forbearance and madness. He is Xiao Ran's brother, but he does not hesitate to turn against each other for Yunxi. Now, the two of them have an inexplicable crush on her at the same time.

Grantham frowned, vaguely feeling that there was a bond between Leng Yunxi, Xiao Ran, and Chen Hao that ordinary people could not touch.

"I think it's good to be like this now." Chen Hao looked at the doubts in Grantham's eyes calmly, and said lightly: "What you can find, do you think she will not know?" ”

Grantham was startled, and looked at Chen Hao, who was plucking the wine glass with his fingers, with a shocked expression, "She knows that you are in Hong Kong?" ”

Chen Hao sneered: "What do you think? Xiao Ran couldn't sit still, let alone him? How many years have Yunxi known them, and since she didn't say anything when they came forward in City B, would he still be naΓ―ve to think that Yunxi would completely give up the hatred of the past?

Just because she doesn't say or move doesn't mean she doesn't know his whereabouts at all. On the contrary, the moment Xiao Ran appeared in front of her, she knew that he would never let Xiao Ran contact her alone in Hong Kong.

Grantham's hand shook slightly: "What about Qiao Zimo?" "Now that she knows that Chen Hao is wandering near her, is it another trick for her to accept Qiao Zimo's approach with peace of mind? ……。

Chen Hao didn't speak this time, but just looked at him deeply.

That glance .......

Grantham returned to the hotel, and when he looked at Shui Mulian, who was sleeping on the bed with her stomach almost exposed, her face was still a little stiff.

If it is really as Chen Hao thinks, then Qiao Zimo, wouldn't he know that besides Xiao Ran, who else has been secretly following Yunxi?

Thinking of those eyes that broke through the sun and the moon, Grantham only felt that this time in Hong Kong was completely beyond his expectations.

Carefully pulled the quilt to Shui Mulian's jaw, stood up gently, walked to the balcony, looked at the boundless night, for a long time, he did not move......

At this time, Zhuo Feng, who was located in a closed room in City B, quietly glanced at his friend: "Zimo, I found that something is wrong with you. ”

"Huh?" Qiao Zimo raised his head, took out a thin piece of A4 paper from the thick stack of materials, and handed it to the other party.

Zhuo Feng looked at the information in his hand in surprise, and then looked up at the clock. Is this man really still human? It took five hours to read all these materials, and then this matter that had been entangled by the expert advisory group for more than half a month was successfully resolved? Looking at the solution in his hand, he almost suspected that he was going crazy.

But in a blink of an eye, he saw Qiao Zimo pick up his coat and turn around to open the door, "Where are you going?" Zhuo Feng subconsciously opened his mouth to ask. This big mess has just begun, and it will end immediately?

"Back to Hong Kong." Qiao Zimo glanced at him lightly, and then didn't give him any chance to react, and went directly through the layers of guards at the door to wait, his eyebrows were gloomy, and his plain brocade clothes were like a moonlight sprinkled with fragrance all over the room.

Zhuo Feng looked at his back in a daze, "Back to ......." Hong Kong? "Obviously, B City is his home. But he said that going to Hong Kong is "going back"?

No wonder, I think something is wrong with him. Zhuo Feng looked at the piece of paper in his hand, his expression was slightly constricted: "It's only been a day...... "It's only been a day since he left Hong Kong.

The strict guards guarded the first prince silently, and no one looked up.

Zhuo Feng's deep gaze fell on the thick stack of materials, and finally snorted coldly: "It's burned." ”

"Yes!" The guards beside him saluted respectfully and quickly took the stack of materials.

Zhuo Feng took the piece of paper in his hand, slowly got into a black car, and gradually left the heavily guarded building ...... in the moonlight.
