Chapter Twenty-Six: Want to Make Me Cry
"What's the matter?"
can be in a hurry like this, and come over in the middle of the night with a smell of alcohol!
Xia Yu muttered in his heart, but told himself not to look at those charming eyes.
Shen Haoxuan took a step forward, separated from her by a distance of about a meter, and felt the cold stings of the person in front of him.
Chen Ze, who touched his nose, got into the car and waited very interestingly.
"Isn't there anything you want to say to me? Or ......" He hesitated in his heart, but he took the first step to grab Xia Yulu's arm outside.
"What do you want to ask me?"
His voice was hazy and hoarse after drunkenness, causing her to tremble in her heart, clutching the scarf on her chest and not wanting to respond to him.
"Mr. Shen, you came to my house at night, are you sure you're not drunk and talking in your sleep?"
Xia Yu half-lowered his head, telling him to not see his expression clearly.
The arm strained and pulled her in front of him.
The faint fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose, and he breathed greedily before he said in a deep voice: "You know what I'm going to ask, don't pretend to be confused." β
She frowned and struggled, but she couldn't break free from the confinement of Shen Haoxuan's men, she turned her head, and the corners of her lips hooked up with a touch of mockery.
"I really don't know what Mr. Shen is going to ask, if it's okay, I'm going to rest! Please let it go! β
"He's not there?"
Shen Haoxuan's tone changed suddenly, making her heart jump suddenly.
Loosen the scarf and pull him to grab his big hand, with a faint urgency between his eyebrows, "Mr. Shen won't let go again, I'm going to call the police!" β
In the night, she couldn't see clearly, but she could feel his nails scratching his skin.
"Shen Haoxuan, what are you going to do! I didn't provoke you, what are you doing with me? β
Knowing that she couldn't break free, she didn't move, letting the hand on her arm grasp her hard.
It took a long time for Shen Haoxuan to come back to his senses and know that he had scratched her.
He let go and took a step back.
The hand standing at his side clenched it hard.
"The day after tomorrow is grandma's birthday, and she wants you to come." After saying that, he turned around and waited for a while before saying, "She doesn't want to see your fiancΓ©." β
Xia Yu watched them leave, his eyes suddenly turned red, his heart was pressed by the boulder, and he fell into the swamp in an instant, unable to extricate himself.
She pursed her lips tightly, clutched the scarf that had long since fallen off with both hands, and entered the room with heavy steps.
The next day, Tranquility received a call from Xia Yu, asking her to bring the dress she had placed in the president's room to the apartment.
As soon as she arrived in Aomori, she saw the blue color under Xia Yu's eyes.
Hurriedly put down the dress, pulled Xia Yu to look left and right, "Boss, you had insomnia yesterday?" β
Xia Yu didn't answer, turned to look at the dress, "I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well, just make up for it at night." β
"Uh, okay." She didn't say much, and asked again, "Is the boss going to the banquet?" β
This dress, she has been carefully placed in the company, never worn, if it is not a very important banquet, she should not ask herself to bring it.
"Well, if the company isn't busy today, you can help me drive and buy a gift."
After spreading the dress and hanging it in the changing room, I took the clothes and went out to change them.
Ning Ning thought for a while and asked tentatively, "Boss, did Mr. Lin say anything to you in the past two days?" β
"What's wrong?" Lin Hai didn't come to trouble himself, but he was happy to be idle.
"It's nothing, it's just that he seems to be quite busy in the company lately, and I can't get involved in many things."
Xia Yu changed her clothes and came out, looked at the grievances on her face, and said with a smile: "It's okay, you just need to do a good job of Murong with the headquarters now, and I have the rest." Besides, Lin Hai won't have any big problems. β
She was silent, remembering what Shen Haoxuan said to her when she was in the hospital, she hesitated, but still didn't ask.
Seeing Xia Yu put on a small coat again, she suddenly saw the bruise on her arm with sharp eyes, and said hurriedly: "How did you get this?" Is someone bullying the boss? β
"It's okay, I accidentally knocked it myself, don't make a fuss." Xia Yu stroked her hand, put on her coat, and then went out with her.
"By the way, boss, you remember to open those gifts, and then I will check the price, and wait until the time is right to return the gift."
Xia Yu could only smile and nod in response.
I don't know if she was right to be a secretary in the first place?
Tranquility was originally known by her abroad, so she has a lot of ability when it comes to architecture.
But now as the second-in-command of my own clothing company, I always feel overkill.
Especially her temperament, most of the time she calls herself helpless. is also because of this, keeping her by her side is to remind yourself not to push yourself too hard, for fear of losing your original intention.
In the blink of an eye, after Tranquility sent her home, she sent a message to Chen Ze.
Shen Group
"Boss, Tranquility sent a message saying that Lin Hai has been busy in the company recently, and she doesn't know why. And ......"
Shen Haoxuan saw him pause, and said impatiently: "Have you not even been able to talk lately?" Shouldn't I sign you up for an eloquence class to practice your tongue? β
Since yesterday, it was as if a dark cloud had hung over him, and it had not dispersed.
Chen Ze swallowed tremblingly, and immediately replied: "And she saw a bruise on Miss Xia's arm today, and she intended to hide it." That's it. β
He twisted his eyebrows, clenched his hands irritably, and motioned for Chen Ze to go out.
He rarely loses control like this, but when facing her, he always loses self-control.
Since childhood, I have known that Xia Yu's physique is easily injured......
Xia Yu looked at the pile of gift boxes in front of him, and he still had a headache and opened them.
It wasn't until he saw the small, delicate blue velvet box that his hand paused.
Because in the lower right corner of the box, "HX" is embroidered with silver thread.
Suddenly a little nervous in her heart, she took a deep breath, and she still opened.
A delicate pear-shaped sapphire set in a vintage setting.
This......
She remembered that this was the first piece of jewelry he auctioned when she secretly accompanied Shen Haoxuan to the auction five years ago.
She forgot that she was moved to tears because of the story of this gem.
In order to coax himself, he threw away the original plan and filmed this.
For a moment, thoughts flowed, and she cried again.
This is the second time she has shed tears since returning to China, but she didn't expect it to be because of an old thing!
"Bastard! He just wanted to make me cry, so he sent this on purpose! β
Despite this, she put the box at the head of the bed.
Before going to bed, she read the diagnosis she had brought back a few days ago, and her heart was once again run over by the past.
"Xiaoyu, you're going to the Shen family's old mansion tomorrow, right? I don't need to pick you up. Zhang Qihao seemed to be pinching the time and called her.
After calming down, she said in a dumb voice: "No need, I'll drive by myself, you should have a female companion, I won't be in the way." β
"Nonsense, where did I come from, my arms will always be kept for our most beautiful Miss Xia." I could hear the hoarseness of her voice, although I didn't ask in doubt.
"As far as you can talk, by the way, has there been any progress lately?"
Zhang Qihao smacked his lips bitterly, "You really don't leave your work for half a sentence, when I am your follower?" Ah, stinky girl! β
"You didn't say I was going to sleep." Xia Yu said, lying on the bed, looking tired.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll let you know if there's news. As for those trivial and bad processes, it doesn't take your energy, sleep, sleep. β
Knowing that she had had done enough lately, and didn't want to make her more troublesome, he couldn't help but say nothing.
"Well, okay, then it's hard Brother Qihao, good night."
Zhang Qihao looked at the screen that had already darkened, and felt a little sorry for that girl.
Thinking of the news from Morin City, as well as what Lin Hai did at the night bar, he threw away his phone in annoyance.
The man seemed to be suave, but in fact he was a well-dressed beast.
After Xia Yu changed into a dress, she drew a light makeup and built a good mentality before going downstairs.
When I was about to go to the parking lot, I looked up and saw a silver-gray Aston Martin, proudly parked in front of my house.
"Grandma told me to pick you up."
With an indifferent expression, he saw the sapphire on his white neck when Xia Yu went out.
It wasn't until her gaze fell on her that she turned her head awkwardly.
Xia Yu didn't speak, and lifted his skirt with one hand and got on the co-pilot.
The handbag and the gift were placed on the lap, and I bent down to pull the skirt on the other side. Before he stretched out his hand, he felt the fragrance of cotton wood around him.
After Shen Haoxuan turned sideways to help her arrange the hem of her skirt, he glanced at the ten-centimeter heels under her feet, and frowned.
Closed the car door, fastened her seatbelt again, and watched her stiffen and motionless.
"Aren't you afraid of getting tired wearing such tall shoes?"
Xia Yu didn't say anything, and didn't want to talk to him, so he turned his head.
Seeing that he didn't drive for a long time, he turned his head in confusion, but crashed into those deep eyes.
"I'm going to be late!"
listened to her reminder, but lifted the corners of her skirt disapprovingly.
"What are you doing?" Xia Yu's face turned red, and he immediately put down his skirt and glared at him.
Shen Haoxuan didn't speak, and the smile on the corner of her mouth deepened, making her even more embarrassed.
The old house of the Shen family
After getting out of the car, Shen Haoxuan originally wanted to go in directly, but suddenly remembered his grandmother's previous instructions, and reluctantly walked to her side and put his arm in front of her.
Xia Yu was stunned, obviously not wanting to carry him in, and as soon as he took a step, he snatched the gift from behind.
By the way, he put his hand in the crook of his arm.
"I'll enter the ...... by myself" Before she could finish speaking, she was coldly interrupted by Shen Haoxuan.
"Don't upset grandma."
As he spoke, he took a step away from his long legs and deliberately slowed down his pace to meet her pace.
The two walked all the way to the back garden without stopping, and the guests looked at the talented and beautiful couple, and they all felt very eye-catching.
Can Shen Shao be asked to pick up the characters in person, can it be simple?
Some people recognized Xia Yulai, and they couldn't help but have some complaints about the changes in Hongxia three years ago.
People who are familiar with the Shen family's past naturally know the relationship between this pair of golden boys and girls, and they will not say anything.
Zhang Qihao is one of those who understands the past.
Watching the two of them walk in, he couldn't help but smile at his aunt.
"Grandma, your precious girl is here."
Ye Rong heard Zhang Qihao's words, put down the wine glass in her hand, and turned to look.
When he saw Xia Yu's light blue light gauze dress, his eyes moistened for a moment.
It was a dress designed by her, and Xia Yu liked it very much after seeing it, and later asked for the design draft.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, she could still see the dress she designed with her own eyes!
"Happy birthday, grandma!" She broke away from Shen Haoxuan's arm, and her whole person became sweet at once.
Zhang Qihao raised his eyebrows at him mockingly, but saw that the man did not react at all.
Ye Rong was a little choked up for a while, stabilized, and then nodded and hugged the girl tightly in her arms.
"The girl is so beautiful today."
"What's the matter, grandma is the most beautiful today, and she is glamorous!"
She smiled happily, but saw a chill on Shen Haoxuan's face.
He is wearing a dark blue suit today, but it is a bit of a couple dress with the girl's dress.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or artificial.
"It's her gift to Grandma." Shen Haoxuan put the gift box in Ye Rong's hand and turned to leave.
"Stinky boy, you're going to make me angry today!"
Facing his back, Ye Rong frowned, and her tone was displeased.
Xia Yu vaguely knew in his heart that his attitude was towards himself, not towards his grandmother, and he pulled his grandmother's arm guiltily.
"Grandma, he may have something to do, let's ignore him and don't be angry."
was coaxed by the girl next to her, and she immediately smiled, as if it was not herself who was angry just now.
"Listen to the girl, go, and recognize someone with grandma."
"Okay." She responded softly, nodded and smiled at Zhang Qihao before turning around.
Feeling as if he had the motivation to compete with that man, he went to Shen Haoxuan's side in arrears.
Seeing that he was holding a glass of juice in his hand, he said in surprise: "Yo, when did Shen Shao stop drinking and drink juice instead?" β
Shen Haoxuan glanced at him with no interest, leaned silently against the tree, and did not speak.
Watching the two women talking and laughing in the crowd, I felt my eyes sting.
"Eh, what's wrong with you, who do you show with a cold face? I'm not afraid of making grandma angry. β
Zhang Qihao bumped him with his arm, only to hear him say: "I have to send her back at night." β
He reacted for a while before he knew what Shen Haoxuan was answering.
"Lin Hai is being calculated."
Hearing this name, his eyes didn't change, and his tone was light, "It has nothing to do with me." β
I had already guessed that he would have this reaction, and added: "I was calculated by Yang Zhenxing in the bar, and I got involved with the wine girl." β
Zhang Qihao didn't care if he listened or not, and continued to whisper: "I haven't told the girl yet, but afterwards, Lin Hai contacted the wine girl again, and it has been the same for the past few days." β
Shen Haoxuan sank his eyebrows, "Don't talk about these nonsense things, she listens to them, she pollutes her ears in vain." β
"Tut-tut, now I know it's distressing? What are you doing kid earlier? β
He glanced at Shen Haoxuan, but he was much less worried in his heart.
"Eh, let me ask you, have you been getting close to the girl lately."
He turned his head, his eyes uncertain.
Zhang Qihao coughed twice and asked worriedly: "The girl didn't ask that man to bully, did she?" β
"Nope."
Shen Haoxuan knew what he was worried about.
"I'll find someone to handle the affairs of Reignwood Club, don't interfere."
He nodded, and said yes.
"Look at those celebrities and high-ranking officials, how do I feel that they all regard the girl as your fiancΓ©e?"
At this moment, the corners of his lips hooked, and a trace of imperceptible joy quickly flashed in his eyes.
"You think grandma just called her for a birthday celebration?"
