Chapter 18: Summer Star Falls Overboard
"That can't be helped, sometimes you have to attend a meeting like this." Xia Xing said, "But I think your husband still takes good care of you, and I haven't seen you for a while, so I'm looking for you everywhere." Xia Xing teased with a smile.
Man Siqiao's face turned red, and the corners of her mouth inadvertently raised, "He does take good care of me." Sometimes he even treats me like a child, and hates to tie me to him! ”
"How good is this, not all men can spoil their wives as children." Xia Xing forked a small piece of cake and put it in his mouth and tasted it slowly.
"You don't have to envy me, I can see that the one in your family also looks at you very closely!"
Xia Xing smiled: "You can see this?" How don't I think! ”
"Do you still need to see this? If I were a man, I would have to watch you all the time when I take such a beautiful lady out of the house, he must have spent a lot of effort chasing you in the first place, right? Man Si looked at Xia Xing with a teasing expression.
Xia Xing covered his mouth and smiled lowly, "Why are you so sure that he is chasing me?" ”
"Could it be that you are chasing him?!"
"Not really..."Xia Xing looked at Mansi's gossip on his face, which was very cute. She wanted to tease her, "I got married to him in a flash!" There is no such thing as who chases whom! ”
Mansi's eyes widened and he looked at Xia Xing, "Flash marriage?" You're crazy, aren't you? After thinking about it, it suddenly dawned on me, "Oh... I understand, you must have fallen in love with each other at first sight, and then you thought it was too troublesome to fall in love, so you simply skipped it! A lot of young people are doing this now! ”
Xia Xing thought for a while, smiled and said, "That's probably it!" She thought to herself that she was not lying, except that it was not true that she fell in love with the other party at first sight, and what Mans said was not wrong.
"Having said that, in fact, this is also beneficial, don't look at the two living together without an emotional foundation, it's a bit unreliable, in fact, so many people who have gone through the long-distance love run may not be able to survive to the step of marriage. It's better to get married first and then fall in love, which can add interest to the husband and wife, and you can also run in each other from the details of life from the beginning. Mans finished his sip of wine.
"Marry first, then fall in love?" Xia Xing smiled, "If you don't have an emotional foundation, and you soon find that you can't accept each other's living habits, in fact, this kind of marriage relationship is also unreliable." ”
"You won't!" Mans said firmly
"I'm not sure, Mans, how can you be so sure?"
"You're talking about the premise that there is no emotional foundation, but it's clear that your husband loves you." Mans said with a smile.
"You've only only met him once!" Xia Xing shook his head.
"Feelings are such a thing, you are in it, you must not feel it, but others can see it at a glance." Man Si patted Xia Xing's hand, "Don't be in a hurry to refute me, after a long time, you will know." ”
Xia Xing smiled helplessly, her heart was a little confused, she stood up and straightened her skirt, "I think this yard is very big, why don't we go for a walk together!" ”
Man Si looked at Xia Xing, who was suddenly lacking in interest, so he had to stand up and say with a smile, "It's okay, I've been sitting for a long time, and I'm going to go around." ”
The two slowly walked on the cobblestone path, but also comfortable, not far away there is a pond, floating on the turquoise lotus leaves, looking very refreshing, they walked closer to admire, round, huge green lotus leaves like a small umbrella, some spread on the black Tan general lake, some pavilions upright, each has its own style. The two of them were looking at each other, and they were hit by one person coldly, Xia Xing hurriedly hugged Man Si, who was almost knocked down, Man Si was shocked, looked up at the reckless woman in front of him, and said reproachfully: "Why are you walking so recklessly!" ”
That woman was Xiao Lina, she had just touched a gray nose at Ye Junyang, and she didn't bother to speak at this time, she said sorry impatiently and wanted to walk away, but out of the corner of her eye, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xia Xing on the side, and felt as if she had seen it somewhere, and after taking two steps forward, she suddenly remembered that she was not the designer who dragged her 'Only'!
She walked backwards in front of Xia Xing and the others, "Yo, isn't this Miss Xia?" ”
Xia Xing had actually seen that it was her a long time ago, but she didn't expect her to remember herself, so she called out lightly, "Miss Xiao." ”
"How could Miss Xia come to such a banquet venue? Could it be that you know that you are not good at learning and want to observe and learn on the spot? Lina said mockingly.
Mansi obviously didn't understand the relationship between them, but she also knew that the woman was by no means easy to get along with, she glanced at Xia Xing worriedly, Xia Xing smiled at her, and gently shook her hand, signaling her not to worry.
"When it comes to fashion, it's always been a matter of opinion. Miss Xiao and I can't agree on the same vision, and we are also in the process of cleaning up, which can only prove that we have no fate. After Xia Xing finished speaking slowly, he pulled Man Si to prepare to leave, but Xiao Lina actually stretched out her hand to block the way of the two.
"According to what you say, you didn't achieve the results I was satisfied with because I had a problem with my vision?" Xiao Lina sneered, looking at Xia Xing, who was neither humble nor arrogant, and was angry.
"What I said is already very clear, Miss Xiao has to understand it like this, I can't help it!" Xia Xing frowned and glanced at Xiao Lina, with a hint of fierceness in his eyes, "Trouble Miss Xiao to give way." ”
"What will happen to you if I don't let me?" Xiao Lina had already made up her mind at this time to embarrass Xia Xing, so as to solve the embarrassment of being rejected by her that time.
"Why are you so unreasonable?" Although Man Si didn't know what the contradiction between the two was, he was now a little impatient by Xiao Lina's entanglement, "You bumped into someone else while walking, we haven't blamed you yet, you still hold on to us, are you really bullying us!" Her voice was inadvertently louder, immediately attracting the inquiring eyes of several people nearby.
"What are you yelling about?" Xiao Lina pointed at the two of them with her finger: "Look at the people you two are wearing, you think you can climb the high branches by blending into this kind of place?" Dream, isn't he just a little designer, and he really treats himself as a green onion! ”
Xia Xing was really angry when he heard her say such ugly words, and was about to say something to fight back, when a man came over with a smile.
"This young lady is right, there are indeed too many people who want to climb high branches now." Xia Xing fixed his eyes and saw that this was not the inexplicable man he met at the hotel where Miao Ge stayed last time. It's strange, I don't seem to have offended him, why did he run to stick a bar?
Xiao Lina was also a little annoyed by the sudden intervention of others, but when she heard his words, her waist straightened up in an instant, and when she looked back, she was actually an elegant-looking man.
She immediately followed proudly and said: "Look, I'm not the only one who thinks so, you..." Before she finished speaking, the man suddenly turned around and looked at her, with a light smile on his face: "Then may I ask, Miss, have you fallen on your high branches?" ”
Xiao Lina's smile that had just risen immediately froze, and turned into a mocking shame, she said angrily, "I myself am Gao Zhi, why do I need to rely on others!" ”
The corners of the man's mouth curled: "Oh? What do you dare to ask Miss to call her? ”
Xiao Lina thought to herself, she finally got to the point, and when I say it, you must not be scared away, she cleared her throat: "My name is Xiao Lina, my father is Xiao Huaqiang, do you know Huayu Group?" That's my company, tell me, why do I want to climb other high branches! ”
"Oh......" The man had a shocked expression on his face, "It turned out to be the daughter of Huayu Group." But... How much does this have to do with you! ”
"Why doesn't it matter? My father's company will be my company from now on! ”
"That's the rich second generation who gnaws at the old, what's the difference between this and those women who want to climb high branches, don't they all pin their hopes on others?"
After the man finished speaking, he glanced at Xiao Lina contemptuously, took out a cigarette from his pocket and put it in his mouth, took out a lighter, and lit it with a "snort".
Xia Xing on the side, Man Si saw that Xiao Lina was choked by what the man said, and he didn't want to pursue it any more, so he planned to take the opportunity to leave.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Lina couldn't find anyone to get angry, seeing that they were leaving, she wanted to grab Xia Xing in a hurry, and shouted in her mouth, "I haven't finished my words yet, no one wants to leave!" ”
Unexpectedly, the high heels suddenly fell, and the whole person rushed towards Xia Xing and the others, they couldn't dodge, and they were about to fall into the pond next to them, Xia Xing suddenly used all his strength to push Man Si up, and he fell into the water in an instant.
The cold pool water enveloped her at once, her nose and mouth were all filled with water, she felt that she must be finished now, but a second before she disappeared consciousness, she saw a man swimming in her direction, holding her waist and going upstream... Then her brain went dark...
In the darkness, she saw the boy again, who was alone on the empty basketball court, dribbling and shooting, as if he would never get tired. There was a girl with a ponytail standing next to her, jumping and shouting "Ziqian, you are so handsome", "Ziqian, come on!" ”。
Ziqian? Zhou Ziqian?? It's him again!
Then, she saw the boy holding the basketball and turned around and smiled happily at the girl, it was him! She finally saw clearly, at this time, she suddenly felt a splitting headache, and then vaguely heard the noise around her, as if there were many people calling her name, she opened her eyes with difficulty, the person in front of her and the boy in his dream coincided perfectly, she muttered "Zhou Ziqian?" ”
When the man heard this, the expression on his face changed instantly: "Do you remember?" ”
"Ahem... cough cough ...... "Xia Xing's lungs felt uncomfortable, and he didn't understand what he was referring to.
When Ye Junyang pushed aside the crowd and rushed over, he happened to see this scene, his Xia Xing was drenched and lying in another man's arms dying.
MD, he hadn't seen her for half an hour, why was that? He quickly rushed over, took Xia Xing into his arms, looked at her carefully, and confirmed that she was okay for the time being, and the anger on his face calmed down a little.
He looked coldly at the people around him, and his voice was full of anger, "Can anyone tell me what happened?" ”
Xia Xing was lying in Ye Junyang's arms, and suddenly felt extremely relieved, but her throat was burning because of the choking water, she coughed again, gently ripped off his clothes, and whispered, "Don't be like this, I'm fine." Ye Junyang touched Xia Xing's hair soothingly, "Don't talk yet, I'll take you to the hospital immediately." ”
Liu Jiahao also arrived, and was squatting next to the frightened Man Si at this time, Man Siqiang stabilized his mind and pointed in the direction of Xiao Lina, "It's her, she wants to push us down together, Xia Xing pushed me to the shore at the last moment." She fell herself. ”
Her voice trembled slightly, vaguely crying, and after she finished speaking, she staggered up and walked to Xia Xing's side, holding her hand guiltily. Xia Xing looked at Mansi and shook his head at her, "It's just a reflex, don't blame yourself." As soon as Mansi heard this, the more he couldn't help it, and the more fierce the tears fell.
Liu Jiahao and Ye Junyang's eyes looked at Xiao Lina at the same time, Xiao Lina knew that she had caused a big disaster, and she was so frightened that she couldn't speak, at this time, when she saw Ye Junyang's angry eyes, she was even more sad, and she muttered "I... I didn't mean to...", the lower the voice became, "I just wanted to hold them, but I didn't expect my foot to break......"
"Xiao Lina, I won't talk to you so much for the time being, you better pray that my wife is okay, otherwise, I will definitely not let you go!" Ye Junyang said coldly and hugged Xia Xing out of the venue, Liu Jiahao and Man Si also followed all the way, leaving only Xiao Lina's father and daughter and the man named Zhou Ziqian standing silently.
