220. Chapter 220: Banquet 1 - Shelley
Lin Zeshao looked at her neck, in fact, he had already seen that it was a "Qi" character, thinking that this was also a jewelry design, a person's face appeared in his mind, and his heart suddenly hurt like a pinprick.
Hang Yaoyu had already let go of him, and ran over curiously to look, "Wow, it's really - Qi Ziye." Cousin, how did you meet Shelley, can you introduce her to me? I don't have any jewelry for my engagement, and if she can design a few for me, I'm going to die happy. ”
"Yes, but Shelley is not available to everyone..."As she was talking, someone called her on the stairs, Hang Zhiqi said, "Yaoyu, Mr. Lin, I'll go upstairs to see my father, we'll talk later." ”
After Hang Zhiqi went upstairs, Hang Yaoyu and Lin Zeshao were talking, and suddenly there was a commotion by the door, and they looked back.
Even if she is a woman, Hang Yaoyu was amazed by the woman by the door.
Xia Tong wore a dragging, ink-colored dress today, the long bangs in front of her forehead were braided into delicate braids and pinned behind her ears, her hair was lazily curled, and two strands of hair naturally fell from her ears, adding a variety of styles.
She applied a thin layer of makeup, her eyebrows were like paintings, her eyes were like water, her pink nose was carved like jade, her cherry lips were tender and red, her bare skin was better than snow, she was dressed in ink, and her skirt was dragged to the ground, like a fairy who did not eat fireworks in the world.
Xia Tong successfully attracted the attention of the audience, and the people who were originally standing by the door all took a few steps closer to this side.
"Ze Shao, that woman is so beautiful." Hang Yaoyu turned her head and sighed at Lin Zeshao.
As soon as she turned her head, she found that Lin Ze was abnormal.
The palm that had fallen into his pocket was taken out at some point, his hands hanging down at his side and clenched into fists, and a pair of black eyes stared at the door motionlessly.
There was a security guard standing next to Xia Tong, and the security guard stretched out his arm to block her from entering, "Miss, please show the invitation." ”
The corners of Xia Tong's mouth hooked a shallow arc, and his voice was soft, "I just came back from the UK, and I forgot to bring the invitation here." In this way, I am friends with today's birthday star Hang Zhiqi, you send someone to ask her, and I will stand here and wait. ”
The security guard didn't dare to snub such a beautiful and temperamental woman, and glanced at a servant in the hall, who quickly went upstairs.
In fact, five years ago, Xia Tong was well-known to the public in the drum market, but no one recognized her at the scene. She is 28 years old, but she is still young, delicate, and much younger than her actual age.
Besides, Xia Tong five years ago was petite and weak, but now she is tall, cold, and glamorous, and her eyebrows are more arbitrary and casual.
But there was still one person who recognized her, and that was Shen Lianni.
In the past five years, she has married into a wealthy family and quit the entertainment industry, and her life is nourishing. She was deeply in love with Lin Zeshao back then, but the only two contacts she had with Lin Zeshao were all destroyed by Xia Tong.
She was jealous of these lovers, and hated Lin Ze for asking for less than she could be, and she almost clapped her hands when she saw his current downfall.
Xia Tong disappeared inexplicably five years ago, and Lin Zeshao was alone for many years, which caused an uproar in the drum market at that time, but they were all forced down by Lin Zeshao.
Even if he fell like this five years later, Shen Lianni had never heard Xia Tong's rumors or who had been exposed to that dusty past, look, how strong this man used to protect her impenetrable.
Protect her from gossip.
Shen Lianni stepped forward, and the sarcastic words had already rushed out of her mouth, "Miss Xia, are you sure that you and Miss Hang are friends?" You're not trying to sneak in here and find someone you know, right? ”
"Yes, Miss, shouldn't you borrow this outfit, deliberately dress up like this, and then come to this banquet to find a target?"
Shen Lianni's sarcastic words quickly won the support of the noblewomen, beautiful women are hated like this, women's jealousy is troublesome, and Xia Tong is attacked for every reason.
Being provoked by so many people, Xia Tong didn't have too many expressions, her face was still soft, but the pair of blue and blue eyes slid over the faces of those women, Chi Guoguo's arrogance and disregard.
But those officers were cute, and someone said loudly, "Miss, if you don't have an invitation, you can tell us, and when the ocean comes, we'll let him let you in." The ocean happens to have no female companion tonight, and you can be his female companion. ”
In response to the officer's kindness, Xia Tong bowed his head in gratitude.
Xia Tong knew where he was even if he didn't look at the man, because his gaze was too hot, and the feeling of tightness and oppression like a storm and tsunami came to his face.
She didn't lift her eyes, though.
Lin Zeshao clenched his fists, he couldn't take his eyes off the woman in the city by the door, he really didn't dare to believe it, was that her? Is that his Xia Tong?
She has matured a lot, she is beginning to release her beauty, and she is beginning to know how to fight back silently... Because of the years of not being involved in her, he began to be a little timid.
As Lin Zeshao moved his steps, there was a surprise sound from upstairs, "Shelley...", Hang Zhiqi had already rushed down the stairs.
Hang Zhiqi rushed to the door, stretched out her arms and hugged Xia Tong, "Shelley, I know that you are in the UK and I sent you an invitation, but I don't know if you are free?" I was just upstairs calling you, but your phone turned off. Great, thank you Shelley for your cheer. ”
Hang Zhiqi's words have shocked the audience, this woman has such a big shelf and face!
Xia Tong held Hang Zhiqi's hand, "Today is your 30th birthday, I will definitely rush back." Zhiqi, I wish you a happy birthday. ”
"Thank you." Hang Zhiqi took Xia Tong's hand with a smile on her face, "Let's go, I'll take you in." ”
At this time, too many people were stunned, they were as suspicious as Lin Zeshao, Shelley?
There was a group of gossiping ladies standing behind Lin Zeshao, and there was a noble lady with heavy makeup covering her mouth and staring at Xia Tong with wide eyes, "Wow, she turned out to be Shelley." ”
Someone asked, "Who is Shelley?" ”
The man was quickly criticized from all around, "I said you are too backward and unfashionable, more than three years ago, Shelley did not have her own brand, she launched nearly a thousand sets of trinkets, and once launched, she quickly occupied the entire market of low-consumption accessories." ”
Later, at the British International Art and Jewellery Exhibition, she designed a supreme luxury sports car set with a total of 48,000 diamonds on the theme of showcasing the convergence of people, and was nominated by the Queen of England Shelley, which is her stage name in the design industry and her most valuable golden signboard.
"Shelley went on to launch mid-to-high-end and end-of-the-line jewelry designs, with the most sparkling and revered ultimate Redux stolen half of the market from the jewelry classic Pousey and became a legend."
"I never thought Shelley was such a young and beautiful woman, hey, God is so unfair, you see Shelley, she is more beautiful than jewelry."
Lin Zeshao couldn't take his gaze back, he saw Xia Tong pass in front of the noble lady who had just slandered her, the noble lady didn't know whether she was afraid of Hang Zhiqi or Shelley, and couldn't help but take a step back, but she still talked with Hang Zhiqi with low eyes and a calm bearing.
She stepped on broken steps, the ink under her skirt rippled with her movement out of an incredible rippling arc, she had a simple pearl in her ear, the pearl didn't know because of the design itself or the crystal chandelier, which secretly flowed out of the brilliant color, shining on her bright moon.
When she lowered her eyes and talked lightly, she revealed half of her delicate and soft face, and she bloomed with a slight movement.
Suddenly, Lin Ze looked at her and looked at herself, Hang Zhiqi seemed to be introducing him and Hang Yaoyu to her, and when he was stunned and didn't say anything, she smiled sweetly at herself and turned her eyes.
At this time, Hang Haiyang, who was wearing a military uniform, walked over.
Hang Haiyang was tall and handsome, Lin Zeshao looked at the three of them chatting happily, and Hang Haiyang showed two rows of white teeth and looked at Xia Tong's pretty face from time to time.
Lin Zeshao felt that her arm was being pulled by gravity, and Hang Yaoyu beside her looked very stiff, even if the smile she showed was very far-fetched, she said, "Zeshao, let's go to my cousin's side and have a look." ”
Lin Ze smiled less, "Okay." ”
Lin Zeshao and Hang Yaoyu walked towards Xia Tong, and when they were about to approach, suddenly a waiter with a serving stumbled under his feet, and he was about to bump into Xia Tong.
Hang Yaoyu's arm in Lin Zeshao's arm was suddenly thrown away, and Lin Zeshao took a step forward.
But Hang Haiyang had already taken the first step to take Xia Tong's slender waist and took her into his arms, and the waiter steadied himself and walked out after apologizing.
Hang Haiyang let go of Xia Tong's waist and asked a few words in a low voice, Xia Tong shook his head lightly.
Hang Yaoyu looked at Lin Zeshao with a pale face, she had a woman's intuition, he and this Shelley must have a story, he has always been so calm and introverted, after she appeared, he was like a... The child, panicked and sluggish, and a little panicked.
Just like he was staring at Hang Haiyang's arm that touched Shelley tightly, his eyes were dark and sharp, as if he was about to penetrate Hang Haiyang.
"Yaoyu, are you here?" When the couple is a little weird, Hang Zhiqi discovers them.
Hang Yaoyu immediately stepped forward intimately holding Lin Zeshao's arm and smiled, "Cousin, what were you talking about just now, you seem to be very happy." This is Shelley, who has long admired his name. ”
Xia Tong looked at Hang Yaoyu, and Hang Zhiqi on the side introduced, "Shelley, this is my cousin Hang Yaoyu and I... Cousin-in-law, Lin Zeshao, vice president of the Lin family. ”
Xia Tong looked at Hang Yaoyu first and said politely, "Miss Hang, hello." ”
Then she looked at Lin Zeshao and bent a pair of willow eyebrows, "Mr. Lin, long time no see." ”
"You know?" Hang Zhiqi asked.
Xia Tong patrolled his handsome face, and finally looked at the countless reflections of himself in his inky eyes, and said softly, "Well, old acquaintances." ”
Hang Zhiqi still wanted to ask something, but Hang Yaoyu hurriedly changed the topic, "Cousin, how did you and Shelley meet?" ”
"Oh, at that time in the capital, we were doing exercises with Russia, and Shelley was responsible for designing medals and pennants for us, and we hit it off at first sight, and we've been in contact by e-mail ever since."
As soon as Hang Zhiqi's voice fell, a low voice sounded, "Have you ever been back to China?" ”
Lin Zeshao didn't specify who to ask, and even his question was a little abrupt, but Xia Tong turned his eyes to look at him, and the spring water in his eyes was enough to melt anyone, "Yes, I have been back to China many times." ”
Lin Zeshao's dark eyes darkened, and the two looked at each other for two seconds, Hang Haiyang said, "Sister, has Shelley been to our army, why don't I know?" ”
Hang Zhiqi smiled, "At that time, you were on an important mission, and you were not present. ”
"Oh, I'll just say, if I've seen Shelley, I'll remember it."
This is already the warmest praise and favor expressed by a man, Hang Haiyang has the steady alertness of a commander, and the frankness and boldness of a soldier.
Hang Zhiqi quietly looked at Xia Tong's face, Xia Tong smiled and didn't answer, Hang Zhiqi immediately handed her brother a disgusted look, as if to say, "Don't worry, don't scare people away." ”
"Shelley, just now Yaoyu begged me to introduce you to each other, she and Mr. Lin will have an engagement banquet on 15 next month, can you help me design a few pendants, earrings, hairpins or rings?"
At the mention of this, Hang Yaoyu showed a sincere smile and her eyes were excited, "Yes, Shelley, can you help me with this?" And are you free for our engagement reception, I would like to invite you. ”
Xia Tong didn't look at Hang Yaoyu, looked directly at Lin Zeshao, and asked, "Mr. Lin, do you want to invite me?" ”
Lin Zeshao looked at her and was succinct, "No." ”
He didn't answer "no invite" but "no", Xia Tong lowered his eyes, and the corners of his lips hooked into a delicate smile.
Hang Yaoyu froze, even Hang Zhiqi saw something unusual, she hurriedly said to Xia Tong, "Shelley, let's not stand and talk, Haiyang, you take Shelley to recognize people, it's always beneficial for us to make more friends." ”
Xia Tong was noncommittal, and when Hang Haiyang came over and made a gentlemanly gesture of "please", she turned around and followed him.
Xia Tong passed in front of Lin Zeshao, she suddenly let out an "ah" softly, and the person had already fallen into Lin Zeshao's arms.
Lin Zeshao took the opportunity to catch this fragrant little body that had missed countless days and moons, and when one of his palms rubbed under her armpit, the rough thumb even rubbed the soft plumpness, and his throat tightened, and he had already hugged Xia Tong tightly in his arms.
Xia Tong raised his eyes, grabbed the collar of his shirt with his small hand, pursed his red lips, and his daughter's delicate state was fully revealed, "My left foot is broken, it hurts." ”
Lin Zeshao's big palm on her waist pinched her fiercely, and she actually led him!
Because he was uncomfortable with swelling somewhere, he also wanted her to taste the pain.
Hang Zhiqi was taken aback, there were many people here, and many pairs of eyes were watching the movement here, Shelley fell into Lin Zeshao's arms... What is this system?
