Qiao Mu was a head taller than Ouyang Lai, so his sluggishness and embarrassment just happened to be able to escape the girl's eyes: "I'm your book lover." ”

Qiao Mu raised the magazine in his hand, and it was the last issue of 2010 to publish Ouyang Lai's graphic works.

The girl was stunned, and couldn't help but shudder when she heard the word "book lover", she just thought that it was a boy who missed a meal because of his beauty, but he didn't think that he was a well-dressed lewd man.

Ouyang Lai lost interest for a moment, his smile was like a falling waterfall, and immediately turned into a cold pool: "I'm sorry, I never write." ”

Qiao Mu frowned: "No, it's your photography, I like your photography." ”

Ouyang Lai simply closed the door vigorously: "How long has it been!" I'm still busy, don't bother me! ”

Ouyang Lai glanced at Qiao Mu impatiently, and muttered in his heart that the Zhejiang businessmen introduced by his sister had organized a dinner tonight, but he couldn't be late.

Qiao Mu didn't have a bad taste in his heart, but he opened his mouth and didn't catch up again.

Seeing the sound of the girl stepping on ten centimeters of high heels and leaving, Qiao Mu began to laugh at himself for being a little too fantasical and beautiful.

"Aren't all girls like this now?"

He muttered to himself, then slung his coat over his shoulder with one hand and left the city's most barren old alley.

Qiao Mu originally wanted to cancel the experiment of traveling through space, after all, there was no reason to do so without a head, but when the assistant reminded him not to forget to go to a Zhejiang businessman's dinner, he hurriedly hung up the phone he had just dialed and drove to a private resort manor on the shore of the lake in the south of the city.

It's also a very important meal.

The three Fang brothers from Yiwu want to come to the province to invest in the construction of more than 30 small commodity supply reserve centers, naturally, Mai Group has become their preferred contractor.

The arbor must not be delayed.

When he arrived, the third member of the Fang family greeted him respectfully at the door of the banquet box, and said in a thick accent as soon as he came up: "Thank you Mr. Chen for taking time out of his busy schedule to come, everyone is here, please inside, please inside." ”

Qiao Mu said: "I'm sorry, there is a traffic jam on the road. ”

Then he quietly withdrew his hand.

He gentlemanly buttoned up his coat and straightened his back into the private room.

There were nearly ten people seated at the huge round table, and a few well-dressed girls.

Qiao Mu is well versed in the truth of business, and every time he has a banquet, he will always see such a girl who wants to cling to the powerful.

Qiao Mu was ushered to the main seat, and because he was younger than the Zhejiang merchants present, he refused to sit down.

At this moment, the door of the bathroom in the box opened, and Ouyang Lai walked out of it.

In an instant, Ouyang Lai saw the "lewd man" standing next to the main seat surrounded by groups.

Qiao Mu also naturally saw Ouyang Lai, who shot the boundless wilderness and shocked the sense of loneliness.

The two were stunned for a while, until Fang Laosan greeted: "Reporter Ouyang, this is Mr. Chen of Mai Group, your task today is to accompany him well, aren't you short of financial topics?" Interview him, Mr. Chen is the best of you young people! ”

Ouyang Lai was also stunned for a moment, and before he had time to think about it, he had to come over and sit on the seat next to the main seat.

Qiao Mu had other things on his mind, so naturally he didn't argue with them about the seat, but sat down smoothly.

During the banquet, Ouyang Lai was not as active as other girls, and he didn't talk much, only knowing that he was bored and touched with arbor.

When the wine was strong, a slightly old-fashioned girl stood up and said in a sharp voice: "Bosses, let me tell you~"

She walked up to Ouyang Lai and pulled her up: "Our Ouyang reporter is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, he got the piano grade 10 at the age of eight, won the Youth Literature Award at the age of fifteen, and is a graduate student of the Chinese Department of Hong Kong Chinese University. ”

Ouyang Lai is used to these half-truths and half-truths on weekdays, but today, with his obscene book fans sitting next to him, he seems a little at a loss.

Fang's boss took the lead in applauding and said, "That's a really good match for our Mr. Chen, I don't know if Mr. Chen is married?" If my Fang's dinner today leads to a good relationship, it will be a good thing! ”

Men love to joke like this when they get together and drink.

It's not excessive, but it's also very greasy.

Qiao Mu tugged at the corners of his mouth politely, and said with a smile: "Thank you Mr. Fang for your kindness, the contemptible person is married, this young lady is so good, there should be no shortage of suitors, I won't join in this fun." ”

As soon as the words fell, Ouyang Lai's hanging heart suddenly felt an inexplicable loss.

She blamed the loss on the fact that she had attended countless banquets and seemed to meet her criteria for a successful mate who were married.

Although this lewd book lover behaves strangely, he is better than being handsome, diamond-sided, rich and beautiful, hey, it's just......

Ouyang Lai thought about it and took another sip of stuffy wine, and then comforted himself.....

Maybe this man is just young and well-maintained, maybe he is in his forties.

Ouyang Lai thought about it like this, and then felt a little more comfortable.

The cups are overlapped, hesitant and staggered.

The feast was very long, and at the end of the meal, several bosses were already drunk and were helped away by the girl next to them.

Qiao Mu was sober, but his mind was also a little drowsy.

He saw Ouyang Lai, who was standing beside him, not knowing whether to leave or stay, and narrowed his eyes.

The growing drunkenness made him hate this woman who could take pictures of the wilderness, shock and loneliness, and was mutilated by the vain and gorgeous world.

Why does such a worldly woman have a noble blood?

Qiao Mu felt disgusted.

So he took all the money out of his wallet and raised it in his hand: "No wonder, you don't have any more works." ”

Ouyang Lai was stunned, such a move, he is not the first person in the end, most of this type of dinner, those men are more restrained, give her bags and shoes, and the arrogant ones will give her a lot of money like Qiao Mu.

Ouyang Lai's heart suddenly swelled with a sour feeling, when she met this kind of person on weekdays, she would turn around and leave, and even more often she might reward those stinky men who were unreasonable, but today, she changed her mind.

She covered her mouth and smiled seductively, then reached out and took the stack of banknotes, raised her eyelashes unwillingly, and said: "You can't make a lot of money by engaging in literature and art, what are you doing with that thing, besides, the salary of the magazine is also low." I can't even support myself. ”

After speaking, she put the banknote into her handbag and twisted out a charming smile: "Thank you, my book lover is really generous, next time I see you, I will invite you to eat, you can choose the place, you can choose what you eat." ”

As he spoke, he turned to leave.

To be honest, Qiao Mu has been expecting this girl who attracts him to be disguised, pure, and what he likes.

But the moment she stuffed the money into her purse, his hopes were completely shattered.

The loss that welled up in his heart turned into a deeper hatred, he clasped Ouyang Lai's wrist with one hand, and the wine in his eyes became deeper little by little, he didn't speak, just stared at her deadly.

Ouyang Lai's heart was empty, as if she had never met such a look.

It's like an angel seeing a falling demon, and like a star looking at a falling sunset.

Ouyang Lai hurriedly looked away, lowered his voice, and made himself look cold and arrogant: "Let go, I don't have anything to do with a married man." ”

Qiao Mu sneered: "Isn't it okay to have a married man?" ”

Ouyang Lai suddenly turned around, and his eyes flashed with a cold and resolute light: "Then you need to have a net worth of at least hundreds of millions!" ”

Then he vigorously shook off the arbor and walked away.

That night, the night was cool, and there were rare stars in the sky from a big city.

One by one, illuminating the smallest corner of the night.
