The merchants are not as particular as the eunuchs, although the tables are divided between men and women during the meal, the tables are placed in the banquet hall, and there is no screen in the middle, and from time to time, everyone can communicate across the table.

Businessmen know very well the principle of joining forces, so their children will socialize and socialize since they were young, and they understand the benefits of cultivating the right feelings, whether it is a marriage of interests, or cooperative development, and various communication occasions, as long as they do not do anything out of character, do not lose their reputation, do not teach each other privately, and the defense of men and women is not rigorous.

Businessmen make better use of resources than politicians.

Qiao Lixi and Qiao Jinwen sat on the main seat, Qiao Jinwen took care of the female dependents exquisitely, shuttling between the tables with ease, and Qiao Lixi worked hard to fight with the food on the table.

She is not a foodie, but she does not refuse to enjoy food, not slowly, but not rudely, not particularly elegant, at least not hated.

It's just that......

Frown.

Qiao Yixi's chopsticks slowed down.

I always felt that there were two malicious eyes staring at her, and they were from different directions.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to pick up the vegetables, she turned slightly sideways, and quickly glanced at the front left, and then glanced at the right side.

It's weird.

Qiao Lixi retracted her gaze inexplicably.

The feeling of being peeed at was very strong, and the two gazes, one sharp and the other obscene, aroused her goosebumps.

It's not that she's sensitive, but her instinct is there, as a professional beating girl, Qiao Lixi's vigilance is very high, plus her current situation in Qiao's family, so she is extremely sensitive.

While eating delicious food, he secretly looked for malicious eyes.

At the dinner table, both men and women were very excited, and taking the opportunity of toasting, the teenagers frequently walked around the dining table on the side of the female dependents, showing their faces in front of their favorite girls and showing their performance.

Qiao Lixi shook her head amusedly.

Who said the ancients were introverted?

This degree of arrogance is more lively than the group blind date banquet she has attended.

Full of wine and food, someone proposed to play a game.

Finally, there is a chance to get in touch, don't play, don't end.

Seeing Qiao Yixi's brows furrowed, Qiao Jinwen leaned into her ear and whispered, "Qiao Qiao, don't be nervous, the third sister will help you then." ”

Before Qiao Lixi could figure out the situation, someone got up and exchanged seats with each other, and men and women sat together.

glanced left and right, and saw Qiao Yi bring two people over.

Qiao Lixi's gaze was accurately locked on Gu Jinzhen!

She said, well, how could her instincts be wrong.

Sure enough, it's this person!

Black sleeve!

"Second brother." Qiao Jinwen got up and looked at Gu Jinzhen slightly.

Yo heh, it's amazing my set!

Obviously, the last time we met, I was excited like shaking a sieve, but this time I didn't change my face, and I didn't even have a superfluous expression, for the sake of a Qiao Jinwen, this kid is forbearant enough.

The first thing Qiao Lixi saw was Gu Jinzhen, there was no way, who called this guy's aura so big and so dazzling.

"Third sister, Qiao Qiao, I'll introduce you," Qiao Yi turned slightly sideways, "This is the eldest son of the Zhong family of the porcelain family, Zhong Chenglin, and this is a horse merchant from the capital, Gu Sheng." ”

Gu Sheng is Gu Jinzhen's pseudonym, and he uses this name outside.

Qiao Jinwen glanced at Gu Jinzhen in surprise.

She is clear about the status of horse merchants in the dynasty, not to become a horse merchant if you are rich, and without the support of powerful ministers behind her, even the richest man is not qualified to be a horse merchant.

Before, she only thought that this Gu Sheng was good-looking, and the momentum on his body was not ordinary, but now she looked at him even higher, and she also had a different kind of thought in her heart.

"This is my third sister and seventh sister."

"Miss Qiao, Miss Qiao, Miss Qiao."

The name of the girl's family can't be told to others casually, so the names of the two are replaced by rankings.

"We have a table, don't you mind?" Although they asked for the opinions of Qiao Jinwen and Qiao Yixi, they all brought them over, so they couldn't refuse.

Not to mention......

Qiao Yixi looked at Gu Jinzhen, who was as calm as water.

Hehe, who doesn't know that this guy's mind is on Qiao Jinwen, they just want to refuse, and they can't refuse.

After sitting down, the maid came in with props.

Qiao Lixi's eyes flashed.

A boxy box with a round hole directly above it, and a cardboard box just big enough to fit into an arm was placed in front.

Qiao Jinwen walked over elegantly, "It's time for everyone to show their talents and show their faces again, you have to take a good look at the number plate in your hand, I'm going to start the lottery." ”

At this time, Qiao Yixi finally knew what the number plate she had touched at the door before meant.

Qiao Jinwen put her hand in from the entrance of the cave, tinkered with it a few times, and found a number plate, "Three." ”

Everyone looked at the number plate in their hands, and then two people stood up, a man and a woman, ordinary in appearance, and a woman a little shy.

This is......

Male and female partners?

Qiao Lixi became interested.

Therefore, being a businessman has the advantage of being a businessman, you can play elegant entertainment, and you are not bound by the rules, but I don't know how many good couples have been contributed to this kind of matching.

grabbed a handful of melon seeds, Qiao Yixi worked hard to play the melon-eating masses.

The man and woman discussed, and the two came to the stage one after another.

The man picked up the flute, and the woman posed.

One flute, one dance.

Qiao Yixi nodded.

This is the most decent cooperation, you can't paint and write together, if the two are together in the future, it doesn't matter, if they are not together, these paintings may affect the woman's reputation.

Since it is entertainment, it is natural to have fun and have no worries.

Knocking on the melon seeds, Qiao Yixi slandered in her heart.

is also absent-minded with her, as well as Gu Jinzhen.

Since his rebirth, this is the second time he has seen Qiao Jinwen, but it is the first time he has had close contact.

I thought he would be uncontrollable with excitement, but what happened to the turmoil in his heart?

Gu Jinzhen didn't understand her emotions anymore.

In order to participate in the Qiao family's chrysanthemum appreciation party, he found Zhong Chenglin and followed him as his cousin, and even asked Zhong Chenglin to take the initiative to find Qiao Yi, isn't it just to be able to stand by Qiao Jinwen's side?

He thought he would be excited, and he even did countless psychological constructions to calm his emotions, but he didn't want to......

How can it be so calm.

With a long breath, Gu Jinzhen thought: He just brought the temperament and emotions of his previous life.

In his previous life, he had too many people to guard against, and there were many things to think about, and only disliking the form was the best protection for himself and the people around him. Coupled with the numerous assassinations he suffered from childhood to adulthood, he was more precocious than his peers, and as an adult, he was more thoughtful and ...... than ordinary people Ruthless.

Whether he admits it or not, he is actually a cold-blooded person.

Except for being a little more persistent in Qiao Jinwen, there is no extra feelings.

He's used to it.

Even think that they will be like this for the rest of their lives.

It's just that every time I think of Qiao Jinwen, I feel a little unwilling.

It's really just a little bit of it.

But he was like a life-saving straw, holding on to it.

In the end, he couldn't tell whether his stubbornness towards Qiao Jinwen was due to different emotions in his heart, or whether he exaggerated his feelings and thought it was his own salvation.

But none of that matters.

He's back.

In addition to revenge, it is revenge.

Revenge, of course, is to let those who are better than die and taste what he has suffered.

Repay the favor......

Gu Jinzhen looked to the side in a daze, but his gaze fell on Qiao Jinwen's Qiao Lixi...... Small mouth.

Trying to chew on the melon seeds Qiao Lixi, her mouth turned neatly, and she didn't see how she moved, the shell of the melon seeds peeled off, and her little tongue rolled up, stumbling and chewing.

Gu Jinzhen's Adam's apple moved, and a stinging pain appeared in her neck.

The tooth marks on it are still there, which shows how heavy the bite of the poisonous woman was!

Gu Jinzhen couldn't describe what it was like, but she couldn't lift her energy, like ...... Poisoning!

"It's barely okay." Zhong Chenglin's voice made Gu Jinzhen suddenly sober up.

Damn it!

This is the second time he has been bewitched by a poisonous woman!

Sure enough, it's a red face!

At the end of the performance on stage, winning a round of applause, Qiao Lixi took a closer look, the two did not communicate much, they were performing together, and they also completed their respective parts, which was not the right eye.

The two did not step down immediately, but walked to the side of the cardboard box, the man nodded to the woman, and the woman took out a wooden sign from the box, "Eleven." ”

There was a brief silence in the banquet hall, and everyone looked around curiously.

Qiao Lixi's hand hidden in her sleeve played with her wooden card, and after a long time, Gu Jinzhen slowly stood up.

Oh, ape dung!

Qiao Lixi snorted lightly.

Whether it is ancient or modern, appearance is very important, good-looking, no matter what you do, it has an advantage.

Just like now.

Gu Jinzhen had just stood up when someone raised his eyebrows jealously.

I don't know which woman is lucky enough to partner with him.

Although it is a fresh face, those who may participate in the Qiao family's chrysanthemum appreciation party are all "big shots" in the market, and their family background will not be bad, and it is worth befriending.

Gu Jinzhen glanced around reluctantly.

If it weren't for Qiao Jinwen, he wouldn't have gone to great lengths to participate in the chrysanthemum appreciation party, let alone participate in the talent show stupidly, even the emperor hadn't seen his "talent", these people ......

Gu Jinzhen exuded a cold aura all over his body.

He wants to see which woman dares to stand up and perform with him!

Sure enough, in a few breaths, no one came forward.

Qiao Yi frowned.

It shouldn't be.

Even if it is not guaranteed that a man and a woman will be partnered, it will definitely be distributed in pairs, and they will not be left alone.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

Qiao Yi had the heart to make friends with Gu Jinzhen, how could he make Gu Jinzhen stand awkwardly?

moved his body, and before he could stand up, Qiao Jinwen got up, "I, I'm the eleventh." ”

looked at Gu Jinzhen embarrassedly, as if the previous cold scene was because of her shyness, not deliberately embarrassed.

Qiao Lixi stared at Gu Jinzhen for a moment.

After seeing the awkward pumping motion on his face, he smiled contemptuously.
