"What are you kidding?" Pei An snorted, shook the goblet in his hand, and turned to look at his father: "I don't like little girls." ”

Pei Zhenyun frowned, blaming him for thinking that the question was too simple: "What do you know?" She is Gu Mochen's only daughter, marry her, and the entire Ronglu Group will be yours in the future. ”

"Dad, what age is it now, who still engages in business marriages." Pei An was a little speechless, "Take your thoughts, I don't mean anything else to her." ”

Pei Zhenyun wanted to say something, but seeing that there were many people around, he didn't continue.

Gu Mian took Tan Man in his arms and walked to Gu Mochen's side, and the family of three stood up together and became the most eye-catching existence tonight.

Gu Mochen stood in front of the Limai on the stage, coughed lightly, and said with a smile: "Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come to participate in the little girl's coming-of-age ceremony and college banquet." Hereby, I announce that I will give 5% of the shares under my name to my daughter Gu Mian as a birthday gift! ”

The audience was in an uproar.

Ronglu Group was originally founded by 4 people, Gu Mochen and Tan Man contributed the most, plus Gu Mochen was the most operation-minded among them, so he naturally sat in the chairman's position. He has lived up to everyone's trust, and over the years, Ronglu Group has flourished under his leadership.

Everyone sighed secretly, Gu Mochen really loved his daughter, and five percent of the shares were valued at hundreds of millions, and he gave it when he said it, without blinking his eyes. The pearl in the palm of your hand, that's probably it.

Gu Mian didn't know about this in advance, and he was not in a state at the moment.

Gu Mochen: "Then I won't talk nonsense, everyone has a good time tonight!" ”

There was thunderous applause below, mixed with sighs and sighs.

The scene sounded a soothing music rhythm, Gu Mochen held Gu Mian in one hand and his wife in the other, the three of them walked down from the stage together, and met Pei Zhenyun with a glass of champagne: "This is Mianmian, I haven't seen you for several years, and I will grow into a big girl in a blink of an eye." ”

Gu Mian remembered that he was the director of his father's company, and she didn't need his father's introduction, so she owed it: "Uncle Pei is good." ”

"Hey, okay." Pei Zhenyun smiled and nodded.

Pei An on the side bloomed a big smile and raised his eyebrows like a child: "Little princess, do you remember me?" ”

Gu Mian looked at him, a man in his twenties, wearing a black striped suit, a snow-white shirt neckline, and a dark blue tie that was meticulously tied. He was tall, handsome and had a very charming smile.

She searched hard in her mind, but she really didn't have an impression, so she had to smile apologetically: "You are?" ”

Pei An pretended to be confused: "I hugged you when you were half a year old!" Ah, I remember you spitting all your milk on me. ”

Gu Mian: "......"

Who can remember what happened at half a year old?

Gu Mochen and Tan Man glanced at each other and laughed out loud at the same time.

That's when the music changes tempo, reminding the guests that it's time to dance next. Tonight, the birthday star Gu Mian should start the dance, but she doesn't seem to have booked a dance partner in advance.

Seeing this, Pei An casually put the champagne into the waiter's tray, stretched out one hand towards Gu Mian, and the other hand behind him, bent down slightly, showing a gentlemanly demeanor: "Miss Gu Mian, can I invite you to dance?" ”

Gu Mian subconsciously turned his head to look at Tan Man, and nodded when he saw her smile. She pursed her lips, raised her hand slightly, and put it in Pei An's palm. He took her hand and, under the gaze of everyone, led her to the center of the banquet hall.

The two danced the most standard dance steps to the rhythm.

Gu Mian looked at the man opposite, but he was a little absent-minded, and his mind was all occupied by another thing.

Ji Lingchuan asked her what gift she wanted that day, but she didn't answer, so he said that he would tell him when he thought about it, but she hadn't contacted him until now, mainly because she was embarrassed.

Where did someone take the initiative to ask a friend for a birthday present?

Ji Lingchuan didn't look for her again, as if he had forgotten about it. She didn't really care about the birthday present, at least he wanted to tell her happy birthday.

Pei An tilted his head and noticed that the little girl frowned slightly, and the four big words "sullen" were written on her face: "Isn't the birthday boy happy tonight?" Could it be because you're not happy dancing with me? ”

Gu Mian came back to his senses, raised his eyes to his smiling eyes, and shook his head: "I'm not unhappy." ”

Pei An is twenty-seven this year, nearly ten years older than her, if she can't see her heart, she will grow up for so many years. He whispered, "Let me guess if your little boyfriend didn't come, so you're upset." ”

Gu Mian was shocked, he ...... What nonsense is he talking about?!

Pei An: "I guessed right? ”

Gu Mian's eyes widened, his cheeks were red, he didn't know whether he was ashamed or angry, and retorted in a low voice: "I don't have a little boyfriend!" ”

Pei An smiled but did not speak.

Father also wanted him and Gu Mian to be together to add icing on the cake, he felt guilty just thinking about it, this is the little sister at all, she can't even hide her thoughts, she writes it all on her face, and she is annoyed and angry when she is said to be right.

He cleared his throat and leaned in to her, "Are you really not going to tell me?" Don't worry, my brother will help you keep it a secret, and never tell your parents about your early love. After a pause, he reacted and corrected his mistake, "No, you will be an adult after your birthday, and you are not a puppy love." ”

Gu Mian rolled his eyes angrily, wanting to plug his mouth: "Why are you talking so much." ”

Pei An boasted that he was as gentle as jade and a handsome son, but it was the first time that he was disgusted and talked a lot, and he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Okay, I won't say it." ”

At the end of the dance, there was a round of applause, and the atmosphere was completely lively, and the guests pulled their dance partners onto the dance floor.

Gu Mian was finally liberated, and he stepped aside with a long sigh of relief, turning around to find Gu Ying's figure.

The two converged smoothly, Gu Ying took out something from behind, and her voice restrained her excitement: "Let me tell you, I took a lot of beautiful photos of you tonight, and I went back and repaired it to make a photo album for you!" ”

Gu Mian didn't expect her to bring the camera over.

The door of the banquet hall opened at this time, Tan Zhen was late, and first went over to hug the birthday star, and said with a smile: "Sleeping baby, happy birthday, you are so beautiful tonight." I'll put your birthday present right in the bedside table in your room, and you'll be able to see it when you get back later. ”

At the mention of "birthday gift", Gu Mian's face changed slightly, and he remembered Ji Lingchuan's words again.

He, did he really forget.

Gu Mian suddenly felt that he couldn't stay any longer, glanced around, quietly walked out of the banquet hall, returned to his room, and picked up his mobile phone from the table.

Because it was inconvenient to bring her phone with her tonight, she left it in her room.

She pressed the screen, looked at it, and saw a WeChat message pop up on the screen.

"Are you home now? I'm outside your house. ”

The message came from Ji Lingchuan, showing that it was sent ten minutes ago.

Gu Mian was annoyed that he didn't bring his mobile phone with him and missed Ji Lingchuan's news, and hurried downstairs with his skirt without thinking.

The message was sent ten minutes ago, could he not wait for the person to leave?

Gu Mian panicked and quickened his pace.

The first time she wore high heels, she was not used to it, and the skirt of the dress was very cumbersome, so she almost stumbled to the iron gate.

Outside the villa, tall poplars were planted on both sides of the Gu lamp, and the dim light of the Gu lamp merged with the bright moonlight through the branches, and a faint layer was poured on the ground.

There were many guests attending the banquet tonight, and the cars stopped one after another at the side of Gu, with no end in sight.

Gu Mian settled down, stood by Gu Bian blankly, his eyes were a little farther away, and he didn't see the familiar figure, and a strong sense of loss hit his heart.

Sure enough, he was gone.

She comforted herself that the actor's time is so precious, maybe she will have to shoot a night scene, and Ji Lingchuan will definitely leave immediately if she can't wait for her.

Suddenly, the door of one of the cars was pushed open, the man's slender legs stretched out, Gu Mian held his breath and looked over, only to see Ji Lingchuan bending down slightly and slowly walking out of the car, like a slow motion in a movie, every frame was impeccable.

He raised his eyes to look at her, his gaze paused, his hand propped on the roof of the car and a smile bloomed, and his low voice was particularly clear in the quiet night: "I thought the birthday boy was very busy tonight and wouldn't come out." ”

Gu Mian's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe what was in front of him, he actually didn't leave!

Ji Lingchuan gently pushed his hand, closed the car door, and tilted his head towards her: "Why is this expression, you don't want me to come?" ”

Gu Mian shook his head desperately, but he couldn't speak, as if he had been hit by surprise, and the whole person was a little dizzy.

She really hadn't thought he'd come over in person until he messaged her. She thought he would make a video call to her between filming and say "Happy Birthday" as he did before.

Ji Lingchuan walked slowly step by step, stood still in front of her, took a small half step back, looked at the dress on her body, and sure enough, she looked good in it.

Even though the lights were dim, it didn't affect its dazzling brilliance at all, but made her look like a little princess escaping into the forest.

However, the crown on the little princess's head was crooked in her haste to escape.

Ji Lingchuan raised his arm, his fingers stretched out towards the top of her hair, Gu Mian didn't know why, his face instantly turned red, and he stammered: "You, what are you going to do?" ”

"Don't move." His voice sounded above her, "Your crown is falling off." ”

Gu Mian was embarrassed and embarrassed, guessing that he might have run too quickly just now to not notice, and it would be a little embarrassing to calm down and think about it now.

She ran so fast, as if she was afraid that he would leave, she was not dignified and decent at all, but fortunately she was not seen by her mother, otherwise she would have been preached.

Thinking of this, she became more and more ashamed. Ji Lingchuan didn't know the girl's thoughts, he helped her straighten and fix the crown on her head, and then smiled with satisfaction: "This is very beautiful, how can the crown of the little princess be crooked." ”

Gu Mian pinched the soft skirt with his fingers and said, "Didn't you film tonight?" ”

Ji Lingchuan put his hand in his trouser pocket, touched something, and rubbed his fingers on the edge: "There was originally a scene, but something happened temporarily and was canceled by the director, so there was no announcement next." ”

Gu Mian was afraid of delaying his time so she asked, she was relieved when she heard this, but something suddenly flashed in front of her, and when she looked at it, it turned out to be a small black box, which was held in the palm of Ji Lingchuan's palm.

"Gu Mian, happy eighteenth birthday." Ji Lingchuan said.

Gu Mian looked at the gift in his palm, then at his face, and muttered a little sluggishly, "This is ...... Gave it to me? ”

Ji Lingchuan chuckled and glanced left and right: "In addition to you, is there a second birthday star named Gu Mian here?" ”

Gu Mian was ridiculed, biting his lip and making no sound, Ji Lingchuan coughed lightly and returned to seriousness: "Of course it was given to you." ”

He didn't plan to adopt Zhao Cheng's bad idea at all, and in the end he relied on himself. But the time is too urgent, he went out to buy it yesterday during the break, hoping she will like it.
