Chapter 432: Something Happened to Sullivan
With only a week left before the fashion show, the atmosphere in the studio is getting more and more tense. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info is about to enter November, and the weather is getting colder and colder.
Outside, the autumn breeze is bleak, like a rusty blade slashed on a person's face, sometimes making people feel a slight tingling.
The scarf plays a good role in resisting the wind and cold, and it is also beautiful to wear, so the scarf of the splendid cloth shop is selling well during this time.
Although the quality of the scarves sold by the Splendid Cloth Store is not as good as the silk scarves, the material is as soft as water, light and transparent, and there are many patterns, and there are different specifications to choose from, which is very popular with female customers. There are also bodybuilding, slim, warm and breathable leggings of various colors, which are also one of the best-selling products in the Splendid Cloth Shop.
Splendid cloth pedestrians come and go, the door is like a city, the storage embroidery workshop is deserted, and no one cares.
Coriander tested Hong Xiaoyu's makeup skills in the office, and Ye Chengzong dedicated himself to Hong Xiaoyu's makeup career for free and became Hong Xiaoyu's experiment.
Seeing Hong Xiaoyu's skillful skills, Coriander couldn't help but be curious, and asked her, "How much money do you make by putting on makeup?" ”
Hong Xiaoyu smiled embarrassedly, pinched her little fingernail and gestured, "It's a loss." ”
Hong Xiaoyu learned makeup purely for personal interest, and never thought of using this craft to make a profit. Before she set up a stall on the street to put on makeup for people, that is, for practice, she gave free makeup to many people. For her, as long as people praise her for her beautiful makeup, that is the greatest encouragement to her.
Coriander basically adopted a stocking policy for Hong Xiaoyu and did not give her too much attention. So recently, she doesn't know what Hong Xiaoyu's condition and state are.
Cilantro asked her again, "Then where did you set up your stall before?" ”
"At the door of Lanchun Pavilion."
What kind of place is this Lanchun Pavilion, coriander really doesn't know. However, from Ye Chengzong's fierce reaction, she could probably guess what kind of place it was-
"Lan Chun Pavilion!?" Ye Chengzong repeated in disbelief, "You are a girl's house, how can you go to that kind of place!" ”
Coriander thought to herself, Lanchun Pavilion is a place of wind and snow. She squinted at Ye Chengzong and asked in an intriguing tone, "Have you been there?" ”
Ye Chengzong suddenly became nervous, blinked quickly, and stammered twice in denial: "I, I...... How could I have been to a place like that! As if he was afraid that Hong Xiaoyu wouldn't believe it, he stared at her and emphasized again, "Really! I really haven't been! ”
Hong Xiaoyu glanced at him, "What does it have to do with me whether you have been there or not." ”
Ye Chengzong was devastated. He can be said to fall in love with Hong Xiaoyu at first sight, but the girl didn't take him seriously at all......
He was sluggish, but he still didn't forget to care about Hong Xiaoyu, "When you set up a stall there, no one bullied you, right?" ”
The flower building of Lanchun Pavilion is also a little famous, it is a mixed place, how many righteous people and gentlemen can go there? Seeing such a beautiful girl at the door, can anyone be ready to move?
Hong Xiaoyu cocked her nose and said arrogantly: "I, Miss Hong, am accompanied by bodyguards when I go out, who dares to bully me!" ”
Coriander found that Hong Xiaoyu was a little smart, and she was quite good at choosing places. It seems that her previous worries were superfluous, she originally thought that she had given her idea to Hong Xiaoyu, this girl set up a stall on the street at will, but she didn't expect her to run to the door of the flower building to set up a stall-
The girl in the flower building, who doesn't want to dress up beautifully, as long as she sees the mixed-race makeup on Hong Xiaoyu's face, it is estimated that they are scrambling to find her makeup.
Coriander is making line cards - these cards are used by the host on the day of the fashion show.
It took two days just to make these line cards, and Coriander was already in the finishing touches.
Hong Xiaoyu also gave Ye Chengzong almost the same makeup, "Master, I'm done, take a look-"
Coriander raised her eyes and saw Ye Chengzong's male and female appearances, like the flowers on the stage. Especially Ye Chengzong's beautiful eyes with a resentful gaze, which are as cute as the heroine in the tragic drama.
"Not bad." Coriander made a two-word evaluation lightly, which was regarded as a praise for Hong Xiaoyu, not giving Hong Xiaoyu a chance to be proud, and then said, "Later, you will go to Baiyuemen with me and try on makeup for Jiang Yingxue." ”
Hong Xiaoyu didn't react a little, and only after two seconds did her eyes widen, pointing at her in disbelief and asking, "Me?" Give makeup to Jiang Yingxue - the famous Miss Snow Emperor? ”
She jumped and screamed, expressing her excitement at the moment, "Jiang Yingxue! Is it really Jiang Yingxue? I especially love listening to her songs! ”
Hong Xiaoyu seems to have been stunned by a pie falling from the sky, which is very unrealistic.
If she pats her face, it hurts, so it means that she is not dreaming!
Oh my God, she actually had the opportunity to put on makeup for Jiang Yingxue! When the top brand of Lanchun Pavilion asked her to put on makeup, she was not so excited.
Cilantro didn't have time to soothe her emotions at this time, so she punched and pierced the line cards and made a loose-leaf line book. In the first few scenes, she marked the order.
After finishing the script book, she set off, and before leaving, she had to inform the old lady.
Downstairs, she found the old lady who was playing with a few neighborhood children. "Grandma, I went to Baiyue Gate with Xiaoyu, will you come with us?"
The old lady was a little reluctant to let go of the children, but the whereabouts of her granddaughter-in-law made her more concerned.
"What are you doing at Baiyuemen?" The old lady was suspicious in her heart, her grandson was the owner of Baiyuemen, could she not know that Baiyuemen was not open at this time? Coriander said that she went to Baiyuemen, shouldn't it be an excuse to make up, secretly have a tryst with someone, and find someone to use as a cover.
Coriander can't read minds, so how do you know that their little old lady is so suspicious, for fear that she will climb over the wall.
"I'll go over and see the rehearsal of the fashion show today." Cilantro said, "I won't be able to come if you go, if you still want to stay here for a while, then I will ask Xiaosi to drive to pick you up in two hours." ”
The old lady looked at the little dolls who were waiting for her to buy snacks, and then at the coriander, a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes, and she made a decision after a few seconds, "Okay, okay, let Xiaosi pick me up later." ”
Coriander couldn't cry or laugh, daring to be in the old lady's heart, her granddaughter-in-law was not as heavy as those little dolls who had just known each other for a few days.
Before the coriander could turn around, the old lady repented.
The old lady pulled the coriander and didn't let her go, "Wait for grandma for a while." ”
Seeing that the old lady paid out of her own pocket, Coriander bought a sugar gourd for each of the children, thinking that she should give birth to a great-grandson for her grandmother earlier......
Not long after Coriander and the old lady and Hong Xiaoyu left, someone came to the embroidery workshop.
Seeing the person coming, Baifeng was happy.
"Mr. Su, why are you here?"
Isn't it the handsome son Sullivan she missed?
From time to time, Sullivan looked out the door behind him, as if he was looking for someone, as if he was wary of something.
Finding that his expression was different, Baifeng smiled slightly, followed Su Livan's uneasy gaze to look out, and asked when he retracted his gaze, "Mr. Su, what's wrong?" ”
"Where's the coriander?"
"It's unfortunate that the person just left."
Sullivan pursed his lips and frowned, his originally uneasy expression a little more solemn.
Baifeng sensed from his low-key and somewhat concealed pretense that he should not have come to find coriander today to talk about business.
Sullivan's face grew heavier and heavier, and he seemed to be a little more agitated.
Baifeng asked in a low voice, "Mr. Su, what's wrong?" ”
Sullivan suddenly smiled at her, "It's okay. Since she's not here, I'll visit you another day. ”
He lifted the collar of his trench coat and walked out of the embroidery workshop quickly.
The footsteps chased to the door and stopped, but Baifeng's eyes kept following the back of Sullivan's departure. She hesitated for a moment, and resolutely followed Sullivan's strange figure before it was submerged in the sea of people.
……
Baiyue Gate.
Coriander handed the line book to Bo Xi and asked him to memorize the lines on it.
When Bo Xi heard that he had been selected as the host of the fashion show, he was a little overwhelmed with joy. He thought that on the day of the fashion show, there was nothing to do with him.
Coriander asked him to go to the front desk with the models to rehearse, arranged the old lady to sit in the position closest to the stage, and took Hong Xiaoyu to the backstage to try on Jiang Yingxue's makeup.
Within a few minutes, Bo Xi came to the backstage to report to Coriander, "Xiangye, there is your phone." ”
At this time, there were not many people who knew that she was at Baiyuemen, and she estimated that eighty percent of the phone calls came from the other side of the visit.
Cilantro went to the office and answered the phone, "Hey? ”
"Is it coriander?"
Baifeng's voice came from the other end of the phone, but the background sound was noisy, and the call was obviously not from the embroidery shop.
And Baifeng's voice is solemn - what can affect Baifeng's mood must not be ordinary people or things.
Cilantro tensed, "It's me." ”
In a phone booth somewhere on the street, Baifeng held the microphone and said angrily: "Sullivan has an accident!" ”
She actually let people have an accident under her nose!
Bai Feng felt remorseful in her heart, she shouldn't have been sneaky at that time, but followed generously. If she had been in the same rickshaw with Sullivan, maybe Sullivan wouldn't have done something like that!
Coriander's face was solemn, "What's the matter?" ”
Baifeng said: "When you left, he came to look for you, and I found that he didn't look right, so I followed." As a result, the rickshaw he was in was hit by a car, and the car that caused the accident escaped, apparently deliberately. ”
"How's he hurt?"
"It's hard to say." When Baifeng saw Sullivan lying in a pool of blood, her eyes ached along with her heart, she had never felt that the color of blood was so dazzling. "I have already asked people to take people away, and when people take them away, they are still conscious. He said me two words, and I was more concerned, and I thought it was the message he was going to pass on to you—"
"What did he say?"
"Photos, bracelets."
Photo...... Bracelet?
Before Coriander thought about it, the commotion in the background on the other end of the phone became louder and louder, only to hear Baifeng say again:
"I've already alarmed the patrol, someone should be looking for you soon, I'll go back to the embroidery shop first!"
Baifeng hurriedly hung up the phone.
Coriander put down the phone, thinking that Sullivan was still very conscious when the accident happened, and there should be no danger to his life. But the two words he said—
Photo, bracelet ......
In the case of photos, coriander can think of some clues.
Previously, due to some coincidences, Coriander and Sullivan found an old photo in the Su family's study, which showed a man and a woman.
The "photo" that Sullivan refers to should be a group photo of a man and a woman.
According to Sullivan, the young man in the photo is his uncle Su Qinghong, who is the current president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, and the young woman's identity is very mysterious.
But "Bracelet", Coriander can't think of any clues about "Bracelet" anyway.
She thought about it carefully, the young woman in the photo she saw in the Su family was wearing a wide-sleeved cheongsam, with a pair of jade hands exposed, and she didn't know whether the woman was wearing a bracelet on her wrist.
Coriander sat next to the old lady, absentmindedly watching the rehearsal.
The old lady noticed that something was wrong with her, and patted her lightly on the back of her hand, her eyes were full of concern, "Granddaughter-in-law, what's wrong?" ”
Why did you answer a phone call and the whole person was wrong?
Inadvertently, Coriander was shocked when she saw the silver bracelet embedded with foam jade on the old lady's wrist. She raised her gaze suddenly, eagerly searching for something on the old lady's face.
The old photo she saw at Su's house was some years old, the photo was yellowed and faded, and the appearance of the young man and woman on it had become blurred, and it was impossible to use it as a reference.
But she can be sure that the old lady is a person with a story. The foaming jade silver bracelet worn by the old lady also has a story.
"Grandma, why don't I let Xiao Si send you back first."
Coriander's attitude was vague, how could the old lady leave with peace of mind.
"What the hell is going on, don't scare grandma." The old lady grabbed Coriander's hand, her eyes full of panic.
If it is explained clearly, it will inevitably involve the old lady herself, how can Cilantro explain?
She thought for a moment and wrote lightly: "A friend of mine was in a car accident and someone went missing. If we ask about it later, we'll say we don't know anything. ”
"Eh, eh." The old lady replied in a loud voice that she would not let her granddaughter-in-law be implicated.
More than ten minutes later, the patrol came. Rehearsals were aborted.
Bo Xilai came down from the stage, but greeted the two patrols.
-- As long as the patrol came this time to understand the situation, not many people came.
The patrol led by the patrol beckoned to the coriander and showed friendship.
As soon as she saw the other party's smiling face, Coriander wanted to give him a roundabout kick directly, but because of the other party's identity, she had to lick her smiling face to meet him.
"Inspector Yan, what kind of wind blew you here?"
Yan Song seemed particularly interested in Bo Xi coming to their rehearsal, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Costume show rehearsal." Coriander said.
"Fashion show -- ah, I know that fashion show, the fashion show advertised in the "Shuyuan Pictorial" is right." Yan Song picked a good position to sit down, waved to the models on the stage, and said, "You go on, just as if I don't exist." ”
The corners of Coriander's mouth twitched, "If Inspector Yan is interested in the fashion show, he can also come to participate next week." ”
The overtone of her words is, you have to talk quickly and fart quickly, don't delay our rehearsal. (To be continued.) )
