Chapter 111: Marriage Proposal?
"There's a long way to go, and it's for you." Shao Jiaying said lightly beside him.
Shao Luochuan glanced at her sideways, his arm stretched out and landed on Shao Jiaying's shoulder, a very intimate posture, but it was not abrupt, so natural that it didn't work, "Jiaying, en?" I haven't seen you for so long, and your ability to harm people has grown. ”
Shao Jiaying glanced at him and just smiled.
Shao Luochuan sighed, "Hey, why are you still smiling like this, how is it?" Are you in love? Would you like me to introduce you to one? ”
"Not interested." Shao Jiaying coldly spit out three words and got up, "Mr. Shao, I'm going to work." ”
Shao Mingyang was silent.
Shao Luochuan smiled, "As soon as you are a man, you have to run, are you a phobia?" ”
"Boring!" Shao Jiaying didn't respond coldly, and walked in the direction of the door.
"Jiaying, if your heart continues, you will become a leftover girl!" Shao Luochuan reminded him, and Shao Jiaying didn't look back.
"Haha, she's still like this!" Shao Luochuan was happy.
Turning his gaze and returning to Shao Mingyang's body, Shao Luochuan asked, "Brother, it's almost time, right?" ”
Shao Mingyang said "En", and announced quietly, "Before the end of this year, I will be in charge of the headquarters!" ”
When Shao Luochuan heard this, his blood immediately boiled.
At this time, Blue Star Night knocked on the door and brought a fragrant and rich coffee.
"Isn't Director Jia here?" Seeing that it was only the two of them, Lan Xingye asked softly.
"Sister Assistant, your coffee delivery is late." Shao Luochuan said with a smile.
"I'm sorry." Blue Starry Night responded softly and put the coffee down.
Shao Luochuan couldn't help but taste it. "This coffee is also very good!" ”
"Thanks for the compliment." Blue Star Night smiled.
Shao Luochuan took a look, only to find that Shao Mingyang's cup was not coffee, but ......
He exclaimed, "How is it green tea?" ”
As far as he knew, Shao Mingyang did not have the habit of drinking green tea!
At this moment, Shao Mingyang was silent while tasting green tea.
Lan Xingye stood beside him and smiled, "Drinking coffee all the time is not good for your health." ”
2♂2♂2♂2♂,m.≧.c≧om
Look at the tacit understanding between the two. One sitting. One stands, such a fit, Shao Luochuan At this moment, he seems to be faintly aware of something.
Seem. He's really late.
"Then you can talk slowly. I went out first. Blue Starry Night answered again. Smile and leave.
After she left, Shao Luochuan's gaze retracted and fell on Shao Mingyang's body. "Brother, you never like to drink green tea."
Shao Mingyang said quietly, "I'm happy with her." ”
"You ...... with her," Shao Luochuan paused.
Shao Mingyang raised his eyes, put down the teacup in his hand, and said indifferently, "As you can see." ”
As he saw it.
Then really, Blue Starry Night is already his person.
No, it should be his woman.
Shao Luochuan's heart was swift, and a touch of loss flew away, but soon, he had already adjusted his mentality. Because he already knew that there was a person living in that girl's heart. And that person can't be himself.
Something suddenly occurred to him, and he said, "Before I returned home, I went to Italy. ”
Shao Mingyang's eyes suddenly froze, and Shao Luochuan smiled, "Lingling, she is very good, I also watched her costume design show, it is very good." In fact, there is nothing wrong with thinking about it, Lingling has always wanted to study there, and finally fulfilled her dream. ”
It's just that today's Shao Qiling really doesn't like to laugh or make trouble.
It has become very quiet, and it is difficult to find the same way it was back then.
"Yes." Shao Mingyang just took a puff of his cigarette and answered in a low voice.
"Brother, there is actually something that has been pressing on my heart for a long time." Shao Luochuan frowned, and finally spoke, "I've always wanted to ask, who did Lingling become like this for?" ”
Just before the Chinese New Year last year, Shao Luochuan suddenly received the news that Shao Qiling committed suicide!
Moreover, Shao Qiling's mental condition is very bad.
Although Shao Mingyang protected Shao Qiling thoroughly, some rumors in the family will still leak, such as Shao Qiling committed suicide for love, and Shao Qiling was dumped by that man and couldn't accept this fact. In short, last year, Shao Qiling's suicide made the entire Shao family restless.
Although Grandpa didn't say much, he was already extremely unhappy with the anger of Thunder, and even ordered Shao Qiling to leave and go abroad, and he was not allowed to return to China without permission!
On his father's side, he was also interested in Shao Qiling's marriage, but it also fell through.
A farce was only quelled after Shao Qiling went abroad.
And the culprit who killed Shao Qiling in such a fate, the negative man, the entire Shao family didn't know who the other party was!
The cigarette from his fingertips ignited a piece of ash, and Shao Mingyang flicked it slightly, bouncing the ash down.
"Forget." Suddenly, Shao Mingyang spit out two words.
Shao Luochuan was stunned, he moved his lips, thinking about something, but in the end he was silent.
Shao Qiling is Shao Mingyang's biological sister, how could he forget such a thing?
I'm afraid, if I keep it in my heart for a lifetime, I won't be relieved!
"You go back first, or Auntie will look for you." Shao Mingyang reminded him again, obviously Shao Qiling's topic, he didn't want to continue.
Shao Luochuan also understood, he tasted the coffee again, and the aroma was so strong.
Staring at the brown liquid, Shao Luochuan said in a low voice, "Brother, Lan Xingye is a good girl. ”
"You don't just want to have fun, forget it." Shao Luochuan also had doubts in his heart, and he couldn't help but worry.
Just because, Shao Mingyang's bad record is too much.
He is a man who has no heart.
Shao Mingyang's eyes were deep, and he spoke unhurriedly, "You seem to be paying attention to her." ”
Shao Luochuan raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "Of course, after all, I am also her senior brother, and besides, she is different from those women." ”
Blue Starry Night, she's not a light fu girl who looks like she can play casually.
"Luo Chuan, some people. You don't need to be so concerned. Shao Mingyang's indifferent words have already made the relationship clear.
Shao Luochuan didn't know that Lan Xingye was already Shao Mingyang's woman, so it also meant that Lan Xingye was no longer as simple as a junior sister for himself.
She is the second brother's woman.
Shao Luochuan gathered his thoughts, and he was silent, "Then I'll go first." ”
After Shao Luochuan left, Shao Mingyang sat on the sofa and didn't move for a long time.
Shao Luochuan's words were like a wake-up call. Ringing in Shao Mingyang's heart. Let him suddenly come to his senses.
Blue Star Night is a good girl.
She's not like those women.
Isn't it different?
Heh, it's all the same, actually.
It's all women, and there's no difference.
************************
After eating at night, Lan Xingye went upstairs to sort out Shao Mingyang's luggage. Tomorrow morning's plane. He was on a business trip to the United States. Fold the pressed crisp suit shirt one by one and put it in the suitcase. Each piece is very well stored. Shao Mingyang came out of the bathroom. I saw the busy figure of Blue Star Night.
It's like a stay-at-home wife.
"Mingyang, I've got all the suits and shirts ready for you. Is there anything else I need to bring? Lan Xingye asked, afraid that he would miss something.
"Just sort out a few clothes, and buy what you need when you get there." Shao Mingyang has no concept of these items, generally speaking, when he arrives at the hotel, he just asks Ying'an to buy what he lacks.
Lan Xingye thought about it too, and buttoned the zipper of the box at a moment's notice.
As soon as she turned her head, she saw him with wet hair again, and she immediately stepped forward, "I've been with you many times, you have to dry your hair, otherwise you will catch a cold." ”
"You think I'm you?" Shao Mingyang smiled.
"Even if you don't catch a cold, you will have a headache if you go to bed without dry hair for a while." Moreover, the air conditioning in the room was still turned on so violently.
Lan Xing was at night, so he pulled him over and asked him to sit down in a chair, while he wiped his hair on the side.
"Well, by the way, when will you be back?" Blue Star asked softly.
"So reluctant? I haven't left yet, so I asked when I'm going to be back? Shao Mingyang pinched her waist.
Lan Xingye was afraid of itching, and sighed lightly, "No, don't move." ”
He really didn't mess with her anymore, "Well, what's the matter?" ”
Lan Xingye said, "On the weekend, I want to go to worship my brother and my mother, so I want to ask you if you can come back." Kindness...... If you can, would you like to go along? When Lan Xingye asked this, he was also a little worried, and he even brought a few installments.
"There's a lot going on over there, so it's too late to come back." Shao Mingyang sank his eyes, and then said.
There was a hint of loss in Lan Xingye's eyes, and then she just smiled and said, "Work is important, it's okay, I can't go this year, then it's okay next year." ”
Next year......
Blue Starry Night, do you think I have a next year with you?
Shao Mingyang curled the corners of his lips slightly, "Then you can only say hello to them on my behalf." ”
"Yes! I will! Lan Xingye looked up happily and continued to wipe his hair, she asked softly, "Are you going to California when you go to the United States this time?" ”
"What's wrong?" Shao Mingyang was suspicious.
"Oh, if you go, can you bring me something?"
"You want me to bring you a present?" He gently hugged her and looked down in question.
Lan Xingye thought for a moment and nodded, "En...... Sort of! ”
"What do you want?" Shao Mingyang had to be curious, because in the days they were together, Lan Xingye rarely asked him for something. And he never cared about this, so he didn't buy anything for her, but today she suddenly spoke, which made him confused and wanted to know.
"Jewelry? Or clothes? "That's all Shao Mingyang can think of, and women are happy to be loyal to it.
"I don't want these ......," Blue Star pursed her lower lip, "It's just that I heard that there are redwood forests in Galifonia, and the maple leaves there are beautiful...... If you go there, can you pick some maple leaves and bring them back to me? ”
"Maple Leaf?" Shao Mingyang was taken aback, "You specially asked me to bring you a gift, just to ask for maple leaves?" ”
"En......"
"I don't know if I'm free, but is there any significance to the maple leaves there?"
As soon as Lan Xingye heard this, he thought that he must be very busy. She hurriedly said, "...... It's nothing, it's just that I've seen it from a book, and I heard that the maple leaves there are beautiful...... If you don't have time, you don't have to go out of your way, Maple Ridge in S City, where the maple leaves are also very beautiful......"
Shao Mingyang kissed her on the cheek and said softly, "If it's empty, I'll run for you." ”
"Yes!" Blue Starry Night smiles head.
*********************
New York, USA
New York along the Atlantic coast to the northeast. It is the world's largest international financial center.
Stand outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. Looking at the whole New York City, it is so bustling and so dense.
The city, which has played an extremely important role in business and finance, is a world-class city. has a direct impact on global development. The headquarters of many international institutions and multinational corporations are located here. Therefore, it is known as the "capital of the world".
Ying An knocked on the door and sent the text to him, and reported the busy process one by one, "Mr. Shao." Mr. Thomas's secretary has called and wants to talk to you again. Mr. Stevender, Lawyer, I invite you to join us for dinner in the evening. Tomorrow morning at nine, a New York Times reporter wants to interview you......"
"I've booked a plane ticket for you, I'll be back home next Wednesday, and the board meeting will be held at the headquarters......"
After Shao Mingyang listened to them one by one, he said in a low voice, "Receipt Mr. Thomas, the negotiation does not need to be carried out again, and the profit distribution given is already the bottom line." ”
"Yes!"
"Secretary Ying, take a morning to book a round-trip ticket to California."
Ying Anhu was suspicious, "Mr. Shao? ”
New York is in the northeastern United States, but California is in the western United States.
How could it be in such a hurry for two states and regions that are so far from each other?
"That's all!" Shao Mingyang has already made up his mind.
The week's schedule was in full swing, and Ying'an finally squeezed out a morning of free time, and Shao Mingyang rushed to California alone.
On a September afternoon, the sun was shining.
Shao Mingyang finally came to the endless forest, stretching from the north of San Francisco to Oregon, stretching for more than 600 kilometers, this vast forest is composed of redwood, known as the "Sequoia Empire". He looked at the redwood forest and suddenly stopped.
Shao Mingyang, why are you here?
It's ridiculous.
She's just a tool for revenge.
******************************
On weekends, Blue Star accompanied his grandparents to worship.
After coming down from the mountain, Lee was already waiting there.
"Two elders, get in the car." Li apparently came on the orders of Mr. Shao to send them back.
My grandfather is old, and he has become more and more powerless in recent years, and he climbed the mountain like this today, and he was panting after coming down. Lan Xingye hurriedly helped him to get into the car with his grandmother, and as soon as he got in the car, his grandfather closed his eyes tiredly and fell asleep.
One returned home, and my grandfather rested for a while, and even the dinner was delivered to the bed by Lan Xingye with dishes and chopsticks.
Lan Xingye couldn't help but be very worried, "Grandpa, I'll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow, right?" ”
"No, you don't! I'm fine! Just climb the mountain, what's there! "Having said that, my grandfather's complexion is still very bad.
"But ......"
"Alright, don't do it!" Grandpa interrupted her and asked, "Are you still dating that boy?" ”
Blue Starry Night lowered her head, "Yes." ”
It's been half a year, but they're still together. Grandpa had always been very opposed to their dealings before, but because of Blue Starry's stubbornness, he was helpless. However, he didn't want to talk about Shao Mingyang, and he was even more unhappy to see him. But now, he is also hesitant.
"You...... Really like him so much? Grandpa asked.
Blue Starry Night solemnly nodded.
"And what about him? Is he like you? ”
Lan Xingye frowned, she didn't dare to guarantee whether Shao Mingyang was like herself, but she could be sure, "He is very good to me." ”
"Good for you?" Grandpa snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly, "If he really cares about you, why didn't he accompany you to worship your mother and brother today?" ”
Lan Xingye immediately explained, "Because he has been on a business trip this week, he has been in the United States all the time, and he really doesn't have time." But. He had instructed Li to pick him up, and he asked me to say hello to my mother and brother on his behalf. ”
"Whatever I am now, you are all towards him!" Grandpa didn't say a word angrily.
Lan Xingye pursed his lips and lowered his head, and his grandfather sighed in thought, "Ah Ye, don't blame your grandfather, and don't blame me." Grandpa and your grandmother are old, one day. will leave you. If we're gone. Leave you alone, we don't worry......"
Lan Xingye's heart sank, and she was a little sour, "Grandpa." You and your grandmother will surely live a long life. ”
……
Monday night. When Shao Mingyang came back. It's ten in the middle of the night.
Lan Xingye was waiting on the sofa in the living room, and as soon as she heard the door open, she immediately greeted her. "I'm back!"
"Xingxing, isn't it for you, let you stop waiting?" Shao Mingyang has told her many times before that when he has entertainment and customers, he doesn't have to wait for her.
However, every time I came back, the blue starry night was always there.
If it's past the wee hours of the morning, there's always a warm lamp for him.
Lan Xingye immediately took the slippers for him, and said with a smile, "It's not early in the morning, I'm watching TV!" ”
"Have you eaten yet?" She asked, taking his suit jacket.
"Of course I did."
The two chatted and went upstairs.
"Shall I put water in your bath?"
"Yes."
Lan Xingye immediately went into the bathroom to put water, folded it out and opened the suitcase for him, and took out the clothes inside one by one.
Shao Mingyang poured a glass of water and drank it, and when he saw her rummaging through the box, he opened his mouth and asked, "What?" Started looking for gifts as soon as you got back? ”
"No, I'll help you take out your clothes, and I'll send them to dry cleaning tomorrow." Lan Xingye frowned, but he also turned back.
She looked at Shao Mingyang and asked with some expectations, "Then have you gone to California?" ”
The water cup was held in his palm, but Shao Mingyang's eyes suddenly froze, and he was even more unconscious, and his palm also used some strength, he apologized, "I was too busy, so I didn't have time to go." ”
As soon as Lan Xingye heard this, the expectation in her eyes immediately dissipated, and the loss revealed a little from the bottom of her heart, but she immediately suppressed it.
"It's okay, you're busy with work, I know." Blue Star Night smiled.
"However," Shao Mingyang hesitated to speak, the corners of his mouth curled, "Although I didn't pick maple leaves, I have other gifts." ”
Blue Starry Night was curious, "What?" ”
"Come here." He called, and Blue Star Night walked up to him, "Close your eyes." ”
"What the hell is it?"
"Shut it up."
Lan Xingye obediently closed, only in an instant, Lan Xingye's hand was gently held by him. She felt that something had caught her fingers, and then she slowly pushed them up.
Her heart throbbed a little, and she heard him ask in a low voice, "You can open it." ”
Lan Xingye slowly opened her eyes, her vision brightened, and when she looked down, she saw that she had a ring on her left ring finger!
It was a ruby ring.
The red gemstones, the brilliant colors, every facet is so brilliant, it is very dazzling in the light!
It's so beautiful!
Blue Star Night was stunned, and he didn't react for a while.
"Do you like it?" He took her hand and asked gently.
Lan Xingye pursed her lips, but her heart was excited, "Okay, why did you give me a ring?" ”
"I just saw it, and I wanted to buy it for you. I remember that when I asked you to choose a gift, you also chose rubies, and I was thinking, did you like it yourself? Shao Mingyang asked.
Lan Xingye also remembered that time, it was to help Tong Xinglan choose a gift, but at that time, ......
"Of course not......" Lan Xingye was annoyed, at that time she would choose ruby earrings for Tong Xinglan, just because she had a similar necklace.
"Then you don't like it?" He immediately asked again.
Lan Xingye couldn't argue with him at all, shook his head and said, "I like it, you gave it to me, how could I not like it." ”
"But what are you giving me the ring for?" Blue Starry Night was a little flustered.
In her heart, it seems that only when one party proposes to the other party, will she give the other party a promise token.
Moreover, it is worn on the ring finger of the left hand.
"I've booked you first, is that okay?" He smiled, his eyes glazed.
Lan Xingye was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes to look at him, she was a little stunned, and subconsciously blurted out, "...... Well, are you proposing to me? ”
Propose?
A touch of coldness in Shao Mingyang's eyes quietly disappeared, and he just asked rhetorically, "Then do you agree?" ”
This sudden marriage proposal was too hasty, and it simply caught Lan Xingye off guard, and asked stupidly, "...... Are you going to get married now? ”
Oh, so you're so urgent!
Shao Mingyang said, "Of course it can't be now, there are still too many things to deal with." ”
"When was that?" Lan Xingye couldn't help but ask simply.
Where did Shao Mingyang think about this question, when she asked him at this moment, he said casually, "A man is thirty years old, thirty years old." ”
"Oh." Lan Xingye secretly calculated in his heart, "Then there are still three years!" ”
"Is three years a long time? Are you in such a hurry to marry me? (To be continued.) )
