Chapter 103: Surprisingly calm
Today's third watch, ask for flowers!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The second time I stepped into the door of Ai's house, it always felt a little weird. Because, when Ai Tingting, who was as beautiful as an angel, walked in with Gong Xiping, who was dressed in a blue-gray suit, most of the guests stood at the door of the big house under the leadership of Ai Hua and his wife and Ouyang Xue. Then, under the gaze of everyone, the two walked in front of Ai Hua and Yu Yuewan.
Just now, Ai Tingting received a call from Ouyang Xue and asked her where she was. Ai Tingting told Ouyang Xue that she was walking home with her classmates. So, Ai Hua and Yu Yuewan, as well as most of the guests, went outside to see with their own eyes what kind of person could make Ai Tingting so out of shape.
"Daddy, this is my classmate." Ai Tingting said with a smile.
She regained her usual goodness, let go of Gong Xiping's hand, walked to Aihua's side, and held Aihua's arm. And she deliberately didn't say Gong Xiping's name, in fact, she left the opportunity to introduce herself to Gong Xiping. In this way, even if the two parties meet for the first time, they will not fall into the embarrassment of having nothing to say.
I have to say that on this occasion, Ai Tingting's way of dealing with it has a very beautiful demeanor. Not only is he generous and decent, but he also behaves and behaves very sophisticated. I think it's a natural habit to experience this kind of scene a lot.
Ai Hua set his sights on Gong Xiping. Gong Xiping took a step forward with a natural expression, leaned forward about 30 degrees, and said loudly: "Hello uncle, hello aunt, I am Ai Tingting's classmate, my name is Gong Xiping." ”
Aihua had actually been looking at this young man since just now. It has to be said that this young man is tall and handsome, and is a typical Prince Charming type in the minds of many young girls. However, Aihua knows very well that it is absolutely impossible to make her daughter so out of shape based on her appearance alone.
It wasn't until Gong Xiping greeted him that he immediately realized that this young man was not simple at all. Even, he felt that composure that was completely inconsistent with his age.
It stands to reason that as the chairman of the dignified Ai Group, he can be said to be a big man with a head, a face, an identity and a status in Shencheng. Even, even the mayor and the secretary of the municipal party committee were polite when they saw them. And as the leader of a successful super-large group, he relies not only on means and wisdom, but also on his own personal charm.
And his personal charm includes two aspects, one is his fierce style of killing and boldness, and the other is his domineering appearance.
He is a leader, as a leader with tens of thousands of employees under him, if he does not have a little domineering, he will definitely not be able to hold the scene. In addition to dealing with the people under him, Aihua also needs to deal with several other major shareholders in the group. These major shareholders have a pivotal position and voice in the group, if Aihua did not have a decisive style and a tough overlord spirit, I am afraid that he would have been pulled down from the position of chairman a long time ago.
At this moment, although Aihua is not as ruthless and decisive as he is on the board of directors, his temperament can make many young people who see him for the first time fearful. He even once saw a new employee who fell to the ground on the spot when he saw that his feet were weak.
However, the young man in front of him looks like he is only 17 or 8 years old at best, and he should not be older than his daughter, and may even be a little younger than his daughter. However, it is such a young man who is calm and calm, and greets himself calmly, as if he has never been the chairman of the Ai Group, but just the parent of an ordinary classmate.
This young man, not bad!
For Gong Xiping's composure, Ai Hua couldn't help but have a trace of appreciation for this young man.
"Hello, Gong Xiping, welcome to Tingting's birthday party. I'm Tingting's father, Aihua. ”
Gongxi smiled indifferently and said, "Chairman Ai doesn't need to introduce himself, I can often see you in newspapers and magazines." ”
"Haha, yes. It seems that Gong Xiping is quite humorous. Aihua said with a smile.
Gong Xiping's seemingly ordinary joke made Aihua feel very useful.
If someone else said such a thing, Ai Hua might think that person was a sycophant, and he might not be happy. But Gong Xiping's face was calm, there was no sycophantic expression, and there was no flattering tone. He said this sentence very plainly, as if he was doing a homely thing.
It was precisely because his tone was so bland, coupled with his age, that Aihua had reason to believe that he said this from the heart, not deliberately flattering and deliberately patting the horse.
In fact, it is. Gong Xiping really just talked about things and said this casually.
Ai Hua quietly glanced at Ai Tingting from the corner of her eye, but found that her daughter was full of smiles, but her eyes never left Gong Xiping. The daughter who has always been above the top will look at others like she is now, like a nymphomaniac, this has never been the case!
At this time, Ouyang Xue walked up to Gong Xiping, smiled slightly, and said, "Gong Xiping, we meet again." ”
Gong Xiping was not surprised to meet Ouyang Xue here. Even if Ai Tingting didn't use her mobile phone to call herself just now, he could expect that Ouyang Xue would definitely appear at the party.
"Officer Ouyang, long time no see. However, I don't think there's anything wrong with not seeing you for a long time. Gongxi said flatly.
Aihua was stunned again when he heard this. Ouyang Xue, who has always been known for her seriousness, would actually smile at a student, which is also unprecedented, right? Moreover, judging from Gong Xiping's expression and tone, he didn't seem to take Ouyang Xue seriously.
Ai Hua said at the right time: "Okay, since Tingting invited it, it is today's honored guest." Come, don't stand outside, let's go inside. ”
As soon as Aihua said this, the other guests echoed him. These guests are some of Aihua's friends and associates, they are all about the same age as Aihua, and for Ai Tingting, they are all like elders. The reason why these guests came out with the Ai couple was actually to see where Gong Xiping was sacred. Because with their understanding of Ai Tingting, Ai Tingting will definitely not be in such a gaffe on this occasion, and it has even reached a state of rage.
However, like Aihua, after seeing Gong Xiping, they were all surprised and surprised by Gong Xiping's composure that did not match his age.
But Aihua's wife Yu Yuewan looked at Gong Xiping without saying a word. She originally wanted to marry her daughter to her nephew Zhong Tian. Because in her mother's house, she has the deepest relationship with Zhong Tian's mother. And Zhong Tian is also the only one in her mother's family who was admitted to university with her own strength. This made Yu Yuewan happy that her mother's family could produce such a genius.
However, for some reason, she felt that Aihua had never appreciated her nephew very much. Ai Tingting and Zhong Tian's marriage was arranged by Yu Yuewan. Although Aihua had never been against it, he had never been in favor of it either.
She originally wanted to take advantage of Ai Tingting's 18-year-old birth this time to settle this matter. But who knows, there are so many problems, and in the end it is still yellow. This made her belly hurt for a long time. Even, she once resented Gong Xiping, who she had never met, and felt that it was this classmate who didn't know what her background was that interfered with her plan.
However, when she saw Gong Xiping for the first time, she finally believed that the reason why her daughter was so nervous about this person was not because of his handsome and handsome appearance. This teenager is not as simple as it seems. Not to mention anything else, his unparalleled temperament alone is incomparable to Zhong Tian. And his conversation and demeanor just now impressed Yu Yuewan. She had never seen any young man so calm and unnervous when he first saw Aihua.
Although she didn't say a word and secretly observed from the sidelines, she was already a little calculating in her heart. She thought that no matter what, it was better to test this teenager first, understand more, and let her make a comparison.
She is not the kind of unscrupulous rich wife, who only thinks about letting her mother's family take advantage. She used to be a rich lady of noble birth, and when it came to vision, wisdom and means, she was definitely not much worse than Aihua. Otherwise, she would not have used the scheming* Aihua to give up her lover and unite with herself.
Moreover, after all, she is Ai Tingting's biological mother, she just hopes that her daughter can be happy, instead of giving her daughter away as a gift. A large part of the reason why she wants her daughter to marry Zhong Tian is because she thinks Zhong Tian is very good and a talent. If her daughter can follow Zhong Tian in the future, she should be very happy.
It's just that Zhong Tian's performance is a little poor today. Of course, as her nephew and a rich child, Zhong Tian's actions are forgivable in the eyes of her aunt. Ai Hua is obviously angry with him now, and after a few days the anger is gone, he will be fine if he talks about it again.
Led by Aihua, all the guests entered the hall. Everything was as if nothing had happened, and everyone quickly found their familiar people and talked in twos and threes.
Although it was the first time for Gong Xiping to participate in such a family party in the upper class circle, he was a person who was used to seeing big scenes and would not feel any inhibitions.
Ai Tingting originally wanted to stay by Gong Xiping's side all the time and chat with him. Because Gong Xiping here is only familiar with her. Although her sister Ouyang Xue also knew Gong Xiping, she only knew each other.
However, Ai Tingting is the protagonist today. Generally, the protagonist at the party is like the bride at the wedding party, and there is no time at all.
As soon as she came in, Ai Tingting was taken by her parents to greet some elders. In fact, these elders Ai Tingting also often see them, and they are usually quite familiar. But this is a formal occasion, and people are here to celebrate your birthday no matter what, so the necessary courtesy and etiquette are also needed. Therefore, although Ai Tingting was very reluctant, she still had to go around with her parents and say hello to the elders.
Ai Tingting followed her parents and left temporarily, leaving only Gong Xiping alone. However, Gong Xiping has always been a person, he has always known how to be alone, even in this situation, no one knows, he also knows how to be alone.
He took a glass of aperitif and walked to the side alone, taking a sip of his drink while looking at the various people around him.
Today's arrivals are all upper-class celebrities. The one who can become friends or partners with Aihua is also a big man with great energy.
"Why do you drink alone?"
Gongxi followed the prestige, but saw a bewitching-looking and attractive beauty walking towards him with a smile.
