Chapter 42: The Party Begins
At eight o'clock in the evening, the party officially began. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Xia Huaiqing, the protagonist, sat in the background listlessly, thinking about being watched by everyone for the next few hours, it was annoying.
Liu Meimei was accompanied by Xia Huaiqing on the side, seeing her impatience, remembering the rumors about this girl outside, and comforting: "Miss Xia, I think there must be many girls who envy you, you can have such a grand and grand coming-of-age ceremony, absolutely high-eyed, you can surprise everyone, how good!" ”
Xia Huaiqing didn't even raise her eyelids, "What they think has nothing to do with me, I just don't like to be stared at by many people all the time, it feels annoying!" ”
Liu Meimei looked at the sky speechlessly, don't all girls like the feeling of being in the limelight? It doesn't matter if it's beautiful or not, you can enjoy the feeling of being watched! Especially beautiful girls, who don't dress up beautifully every day, enjoy the eyes of others!
"Sister Liu, remember to call me when it's time for me to go on stage, I'll rest."
Rest, it sounds good, obviously I just want to take a nap and sleep! Liu Meimei's belly slandered, such an important party, the protagonist actually slept! Well, she has served this Miss Xia, her psychology is too strong, she can only admire.
The emcee on the stage talked for a long time, and asked Yao Wansheng to speak. Yao Wansheng has never participated in the party or anything like that, but this time it is the coming-of-age ceremony of his precious granddaughter, and he can't miss anything, so he can say a few more words to clarify the rumors for his granddaughter.
After a while, Liu Meimei woke up Xia Huaiqing, who was already asleep in a chair, and signaled that it was time for her to go on stage. Xia Huaiqing stood up, and before she came to the stage, Liu Meimei also told her to smile!
So, Xia Huaiqing obediently raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a suspicious sneering expression. Liu Meimei was completely speechless and covered her eyes. However, good looks are good, she is already charming and extraordinary, slightly raising the corners of her lips, and her expression seems to be sneering, which makes people feel mysterious and sexy.
After coming to power, Xia Huaiqing simply said a few words. Although she laughed reluctantly, she still silenced everyone in the audience.
The audience was full of people from wealthy families, some who were good friends with Xia Yanjiang, some who were in competition with Xia's enterprises, and some who were hostile to Xia's. The friendship is naturally to cheer for the Xia family, and the competitive relationship is purely because they are in a circle, and the courtesies are still exchanged, and as for the hostile, they are naturally here to see the jokes.
About the rumors about Xia Huaiqing, I don't know where they came from, what they said is good, what is ugly, bad temper, low IQ, and hostile to the Xia family is naturally happy to see jokes. But I'm afraid that the result will disappoint them, Xia Huaiqing on the stage is too dazzling, with both appearance and temperament, and he is neither humble nor arrogant in speaking, he is obviously the most qualified heir to a wealthy family.
Xia Huaiqing was on stage for a short time, and it was not until she stepped down that everyone in the audience came back to their senses from the exclamation that the rumors were seriously inconsistent. The rumors are really not credible, but this time it is too outrageous!
Everyone chatted while drinking, and the most frequent appearance in the words was Xia Huaiqing's name. But the protagonist is like no one, and after appearing in the photo, he finds a corner where no one is around, and sits there to eat. I'm going to dance later, so I've got to eat something to put on the bottom of the mat. I started to prepare for makeup in the afternoon, and I hadn't eaten anything in the evening, Xia Huaiqing was hungry.
As he was immersed in eating, Xia Huaiqing suddenly felt a dark head and a shadow blocking the light. looked up, only to find that the corner she was looking for was indeed remote, there was not even a little light behind her, and the light in front of her was too bright, and the figure stood in front of her, but because of the backlight, she couldn't see what this person looked like, and she should be a man.
The man didn't speak, just handed Xia Huaiqing a small gift box.
Xia Huaiqing stretched out her hand to take it, but she felt strange in her heart, why didn't this person come according to the rules, the guests participated in the coming-of-age ceremony, didn't the gifts be handed over directly to the servant, why did she give it to her directly, she didn't know this person.
However, out of politeness, Xia Huaiqing still thanked him, "Thank you, who are you?" Wait for the housekeeper to take notes. ”
Each gift given by the guest will be recorded, and these human relations will be recorded by the big family, so as not to return the gift too lightly or too heavily. Courtesy is still exchanged, of course, you can't do rude things, wealthy families have always been extremely interested in face.
The figure in the backlight seemed to know that Xia Huaiqing couldn't see his face clearly, so he shifted his position and sat down next to her.
Xia Huaiqing was annoyed by this person's rudeness, she didn't invite him to sit down, this person sat here so consciously and didn't leave, and sat next to her.
"Yu Zhixian." The man opened his mouth and said his name.
After Yu Zhixian sat down, Xia Huaiqing saw his face clearly, it was very strange and he didn't know him. Although he was annoyed by his rudeness, he was a guest when he came, and as the host, he received gifts from others, so he could only ignore this person's small rudeness.
"Hello, the first time we met, you broke the bank." Reluctantly picking the corners of his mouth, he thanked him with a smile.
Yu Zhixian, who was sitting next to him, frowned slightly, as if he was very dissatisfied with Xia Huaiqing's smile, "It's not good for you to smile like this." ”
What's the matter with me? Love to watch it or not, the old lady still doesn't want to laugh! Xia Huaiqing slandered.
Seeing that this man was still sitting here, and had no intention of leaving at all, Xia Huaiqing had no choice but to euphemistically drive people away, "Mr. Yu, I have to dance in a while, I want to eat something first, you can do it yourself." ”
After saying that, he called the maid who was standing not far away and asked her to go to the buffet table to get some more food.
"It just so happens that I'm hungry too, so why don't we eat together?"
"......" Does this person really not understand that she is driving people away?
"Please help me get something to eat, thank you." This is what Yu Zhixian said to the servant.
The maid looked at Xia Huaiqing and asked her opinion.
Xia Huaiqing nodded slightly at the maid, although she didn't want to eat at the same table with this person, but as the host, she couldn't just say let the family go!
"Why don't you take it apart and see what I gave you coming-of-age gift?"
"Let's see when the party is over."
"Watch it now, I think you'll like it."
“......”
Although he was angry at this person's rudeness again, he still opened the packaging of the gift box. However, Xia Huaiqing's anger did not last long, and the moment he saw the gift, he was attracted.
There is an emerald ring in the gift box, and the platinum ring is embedded with a superb emerald of at least 5 carats, the style is simple and generous, without complex patterns and superfluous decorations, which is the most in line with Xia Huaiqing's vision.
Although I liked it, it was ......
"It's the first time we've met, and it's too expensive to give such a coming-of-age gift, so please take it back."
"How can there be a reason to take back the gifts you give out, don't you like them?"
"It's very beautiful, and I like it too, but we really don't know each other, it's too precious!"
"Who says we don't know each other?" Yu Zhixian seemed to have something to say.
"I'm sure I've never seen you, but..."
