Chapter 202: Dramatic Gathering
I raised my hand and looked at my watch, and then said to Xiao Ai beside me, "A few old friends have an appointment to get together today, let's go together." β
"Old friends? Who are they? β
"If you like to be lively, I can call and ask all my colleagues who used to work in the wedding company to come out."
Xiao Ai looked at me vigilantly, and then asked, "Did you have any intention to make such a big move?" β
I jokingly replied, "yes, I just want to make the party look like a bazaar, and then sell you at a clear price." β
"Boring."
"Do you dare to go?"
Xiao Ai looked at me with disdain and replied, "Even if you want to sell me at a clear price, I don't dare to do anything, because I have always been fearless." β
I didn't question Xiao Ai's fearlessness, because she was indeed an unusual girl. I've always felt that if life is a script, then she is the one who lives outside the script, and you never know what kind of thoughts she has hidden in her heart, although she also has pain and happiness like us......
Back in the old alley, I changed into a relatively formal dress, and then washed my messy hair, while Xiao Ai was waiting for me in the yard, she was very interested in the flowers and plants that had survived the winter and had all recovered, so from time to time they were moved to a bright place and photographed with her mobile phone.
By the time I cleaned myself up, there was only half an hour left before the date time, and I, who didn't like to be late, suddenly became urgent, and kept urging Xiao Ai not to fiddle with those flowers and plants, and to go with me quickly.
Xiao Ai stopped at the sundries shed where I stacked my debris, and said to me on a whim: "Jiangqiao, go by bicycle." β
"Far away, we have to go to Metropark Hotel, let's take a taxi."
"A 5 star hotel? Just an appointment for dinner! β
"Who doesn't have one or two friends who like to play music, anyway, it's not our treat, just take the opportunity to have a luxury, isn't it very cool." As I spoke, I pulled Xiao Ai out again.
She didn't want to take a step, looked at my old bicycle, and said insistingly, "Ride it." β
I couldn't resist her, so I had to push the bicycle out of the utility shed, and then muttered to myself: "Riding a bicycle to a five-star restaurant for dinner is enough for cows!" β
β¦β¦
At this time, the rush hour after work has not passed, the traffic pressure has been very high Nanjing City began to be jammed again, Xiao Ai sitting in the back of the car is very complacent, keep telling me, another Mercedes-Benz and Maserati were stuck in the traffic and motionless, and after I admitted that cycling is an environmentally friendly and correct choice, she smiled very happily! And the lights of the city and the hustle and bustle created by the flow of people have become our foil at this moment, making the two originally lonely people feel warm, and those lights that have been pursued by countless people are behind us, and they are slowly becoming extremely cheap!
I parked my car under a plane tree, and then looked at the open-air parking lot not far away, I could remember the license plate numbers of Chen Yi and Qin Miao, so I could know at a glance whether they had arrived or not.
During the search, a white BMW 750li stopped in front of the left very close to me and Xiao Ai, and then there was a scene that stunned me, and the people who walked down from the car were Zhao Mu and Li Zishan!
I did call Zhao Mu at noon and said that we would have dinner together in the evening, but Li Zishan also came, which made me incomprehensible.
Zhao Mu saw Xiao Ai standing beside me, and was surprised that Cheng DΓΉ was no less than I saw him and Li Zishan together, so that he didn't come to us for the first time, but Li Zishan came to us before him. She said to Xiao Ai without smiling: "When did you come back, why didn't you call me?" β¦β¦ Whether you recognize it or not, in my heart we are always a family, even if your father has an accident, this relationship still has to be maintained......"
Xiao Ai looked at Li Zishan with a cold expression, and she replied: "If there is a mirror, I must let you see how disgusting you look now...... Don't pretend in front of me, I won't eat your set. β
Li Zishan used her fingers smeared with red nail polish to comb her wind-blown hair, looking distressed, Xiao Ai looked at her expression but never changed, until Li Zishan left with interest.
I asked Zhao Mu, who came later, "Why are you with her?" β
Zhao Mu looked at Xiao Ai for a long time before he turned his head to look at me and replied: "I met Mr. Li when I got off work, and it just so happened that she also came here to participate in a business cocktail party, so she brought me over by the way." β
After Zhao Mu explained this, I didn't pursue it too much, but I could see that Li Zishan, who was already in charge of half of the "Jinding Real Estate", was very important to him, because the boss's car was not something that anyone could sit in casually, especially Li Zishan, a woman who only valued interests but had no human feelings.
Zhao Mu took another step in front of Xiao Ai, he helped his glasses, and then smiled and said: "I really didn't expect you to come back from Taipei, I also told Brother Qiao before, when I have a business trip to Taipei, I will go to see you!" β
"Really?"
Zhao Mu nodded, but Xiao Ai's negative answer also made it difficult for him to take the following words, he stood for a while, and then chatted with me again, but never asked Xiao Ai if he came back from Taipei and had anything to do with me, just said some things about his work.
After a while, Jin Qiu and Qin Miao, who had not seen each other for a long time, arrived one after another, and the two talked happily. It seems that the cooperation in the hotel project in Sanya is very pleasant, and Chen Yi seems to have a temporary work task, which has passed the time we agreed on but has not yet appeared.
After meeting, Jin Qiu asked me in a reproachful tone, "Jiang Qiao, where have you been during this time?" I sent you several messages and didn't get back! β
This question made Zhao Mu, who had always been worried, look at me, and it was impossible for me to talk about this matter that was a little sensitive between us in public, so I replied vaguely: "I did something outside, and my mobile phone was stolen, do you have something to do with me?" β
"I'm looking for you, let's talk about it alone, let's go eat first, Chen Yi just called me, saying that there is an emergency meeting to attend temporarily, I'm afraid I won't be able to come."
I was a little surprised that Chen Yi, who had originally mentioned the party, was the only absentee, so it seems that this impromptu party was really a bit dramatic.
Just as we were about to enter the hotel, Qin Miao said to wait, because there were still unplanned people to come.
After waiting for less than a cigarette, another Land Cruiser drove towards us, and then I saw Qiu Zi'an, the man who had given me endless trouble, and now gradually faded into my mind.
Qin Miao said to us: "Qiu Zi'an was the ...... I invited" and then said to Jin Qiu beside him: "Qiu Zi'an is very energetic in the entertainment industry, there will be high-end projects in the future, what kind of stars do you need to invite to participate in publicity, just look for him, I think you will have the opportunity to cooperate, and I will introduce you to you later." β
Jin Qiu expressed his gratitude to Qin Miao, but because of this uninvited guest, I felt that this party was full of drama! So much so that it made me very uncomfortable.
Before Qiu Zi'an got out of the car, I took out my mobile phone from my pocket and dissipated the discomfort in my heart. Unexpectedly, Qiao Ye actually replied to the message I sent him late last night about half an hour ago.
I held my breath, because I wasn't sure if Su Han had relayed the news that Qin Miao was pregnant. (Supplement)
