Chapter 140: Take it
Lin Xi looked at the mask in her hand and was a little stunned, this was handed to her by the staff of the stage, she was not very interested in the ball.
The masquerade requires everyone to wear a mask and be paired with a dance partner of the opposite sex.
Lin Xi looked helplessly, Wen Wenya and Ye Lin who were standing together, it seemed that she could only go to find another dance partner, and those two people were ready to abandon her.
"This young lady, can I invite you to a dance?"
There was something familiar in my ears.
Is it Jin Ouyang? Lin Xi didn't know why, there was a little loss in her heart, what was she expecting? Lin Xi hurriedly put on the mask first, and when he looked back, he was facing the other party's serious eyes.
"Okay."
Lin Xi put his hand on Jin Ouyang's palm.
I don't know why, Jin Zhanbei's handsome face always appears in her mind, where is he now, and who will be the female companion next to her? At the same time, Lin Xiao had quietly walked around to Jin Zhanbei's side, this was the consensus he had reached with Jin Ouyang just now, as long as Jin Ouyang dragged Lin Xi, she would have the confidence to take Jin Zhanbei.
"Sir, may I invite you to do a dance?" Lin Xiao wore a mask and smiled sweetly.
Jin Zhanbei frowned, sure enough, he didn't like to participate in this kind of dinner party, and there were these unnecessary constraints.
Lin Xiao saw that Jin Zhanbei still didn't look back, thinking that the stereo next to her was suppressing her voice, so she raised her voice, "This gentleman, can I invite you to dance?" Jin Zhanbei still frowned and ignored it, it was an unfamiliar voice, he had never been very interested in these.
Lin Xiao was helpless, could it be that her voice was still too quiet? So he made a detour to Jin Zhanbei to get his real face, and looked at the handsome Jin Zhanbei even though most of his face was covered by a mask.
This is the man of her dreams, if she can be with Jin Zhanbei, then she would rather choose to abandon everything before, even if she gives up fighting with Lin Xi for everything.
"I'm not going to this ball."
Jin Zhanbei said coldly, got up and left, ignoring Lin Xiao behind him and jumped to his feet angrily.
After the host finished speaking, beautiful and soothing music suddenly sounded in the stereo, which was a special piece for waltz dance.
Lin Xi danced to the music, drawing a circle on the ground with her toes, and as the eldest lady of the Lin family since she was a child, she naturally had to do with these trainings.
And Jin Ouyang, as a dance partner, is also slowly turning his body, and his mind is only full of one thought, Lin Xi is so beautiful, his graceful dancing posture is like a professional waltz performer.
At this time, Jin Zhanbei was shuttling through the crowd, he was looking for a familiar figure, in fact, it was not that he was not interested in the masquerade, but the dance partner had to be that person.
It wasn't until Jin Zhanbei caught those familiar eyes in the crowd that he walked forward quickly, and couldn't even tolerate her dancing with other men.
"Let's change our dance partner."
Jin Zhanbei whispered in the man's ear, just as the dance music was getting louder and weaker at this time, and it seemed that he was going to change to another dance music.
Jin Zhanbei turned sideways slightly.
Before Jin Ouyang could react, his hand had already loosened from Lin Xi, and he stood aside in a daze, and the sentence echoed in his ears for a long time, "Change your dance partner." ”
Eldest brother? Jin Ouyang looked at the familiar back, and was even more sure that it was Jin Zhanbei who was standing opposite Lin Xi at this time.
And Lin Xi, as the protagonist of the incident, was even more confused, and at the moment when his fingers were interlocked, the familiar heartbeat sounded.
Lin Xi wasn't sure that the person standing opposite her now was Jin Zhanbei, and she didn't even dare to raise her eyes to look at the other party's eyes.
After the dance, Jin Zhanbei's figure quietly left.
Lin Xi couldn't find the person just now in the crowd, but she was very sure that that feeling, the familiar aura on his body, must be Jin Zhanbei.
The masquerade is over, and Lynsey is still lost in thought, what is it like......
The dinner lasted until eleven o'clock in the evening, and Lin Xi also met many business bosses at the Purple Moon Dinner and left each other's contact information.
If you can attend more events like this in the future, you will be able to meet more people and find the right collaborators for the studio.
After the dinner, Lin Xi drove Ye Lin home, "Don't you really think about moving here?" I also have a single apartment near my studio, and you have a long commute every day, and you waste a lot of time in the long run. ”
Lynsey said again.
At first, Ye Lin thought that it was not very convenient to live with two girls, but it was true that the time spent on the road to work every day took up more than half, and if he could, he wanted to rent a house near the studio.
"Really?" Ye Lin was a little surprised, "Boss, how much is a month's rent?" Linsey shook her head, she chose to keep the single apartment when she moved, so that she could live in the studio in the future, and did not think about the issue of charging rent at all.
"That's not good, I'm taking the remuneration from the studio, and at the same time enjoying the single apartment provided by the studio, which is a little inappropriate."
Ye Lin refused, Lin Xi was enough to help him in life, not to mention helping his cousin solve the part-time problem.
Lin Xi smiled and said, "That's okay, you can live in that single apartment with peace of mind, you don't have to pay for the room, but it's not as good as you think, what about your work, it means that you may sacrifice your rest time, I will call you to come to the studio at any time." ”
Ye Lin nodded, as long as he felt that he was not taking advantage.
Lin Xi was just joking, Ye Lin called her "boss", but in fact, everyone is just partners, if there was no Ye Lin and Wen Ya, there would be no today's Chuxin Studio, everyone takes what they need from each other, and there is no conflict.
The Purple Moon Dinner was like a dream, but the trophy on the TV cabinet really told the three of them that it was the result of the three of them's hard work, and the moment they walked to the stage to present the awards, let more people know them.
The phone rang, and Linsey answered the phone.
"Hello?" Lin Xi said as he looked at the design drawings.
Wen Wenya poked her head out from behind the computer, only to see Lin Xi's face becoming more and more gloomy, and she pursed her lips without saying a word, she seemed to be angry.
"Okay, I know, I'll send you a document later, you can just send this document to the other party."
Lynsey said calmly, then hung up.
Wen Wenya asked with a puzzled face, "Nuan Nuan, what's wrong?" Look at the way your face doesn't look good. ”
Lin Xi repeated the contents of the phone call to Wen Wenya and Ye Lin, it was Ye Lin's cousin who called, saying that he received an anonymous phone call this morning, the other party claimed to give him 100,000 yuan, and asked him to send him some of the drawings about the studio that he had in hand recently.
If the client's design drawings are leaked, the studio will compensate for a high amount of liquidated damages, and the good reputation that the studio has established for a long time will also be lost, and all losses will not be measured in money.
"It's too cloudy."
Ye Lin was stunned, when he first entered the society, he had not yet come into contact with the sinister nature of the original human nature.
Lin Xi nodded, now that the studio is sharp, the natural tree is very popular, and it has robbed some design companies of business, so naturally the other party can't see it and wants to take revenge on them.
As he spoke, Lin Xi opened the software used for the design, made a few samples and sent them to Ye Lin's cousin.
"Your cousin is really a man of integrity."
Wen Wenya said on the side, 100,000 yuan is not a small amount for a college student looking for a part-time job, but he is unmoved.
Ye Lin smiled honestly, that was natural, although his cousin was his distant cousin, but the people with their surname Ye were down-to-earth and never did that treacherous thing.
"It should be rewarded."
Lin Xi nodded in agreement, she had originally prepared to be dug by others at the beginning, so she did not hand over some very important design plans to Ye Lin's cousin, after this test, she was also a lot more relieved of him.
Seeing that the computer showed the file that had been successfully sent, Lin Xi hooked his lips and smiled, hoping to catch a big fish.
For the next few days, Lin Xi waited quietly, and at the same time was speculating about who was looking at their studio unpleasantly, and actually tried to frame them with such indiscriminate methods.
