Three, that light
Guan Zailan smug glanced at the co-pilot, the prince of the iceberg who had worked so hard to almost kidnap her nightlife, as she slipped her newly purchased Jaguar F-type sports car like a dragon between Pudong Avenue and the side roads at 7:00 p.m., skirting many congested areas.
And Feng Jingxi was still quietly looking at the river of cars like a marquee in front of him, and the light and shadow on the lights outside the window flickered on his side face, changing endlessly. Those lonely times in the United States seemed to come to the face, and the heart that was locked in the blue was gently knocked again.
"Berg, that's your name. Who named you? β
"Forget about my roommate when I first arrived in the United States."
As soon as Guan Zailan's voice drifted into Feng Jingxi's ears, he would respond reflexively, even if it was extremely reluctant. This problem is probably the sequelae of her hypnotherapy before.
"How long have we known each other?" Guan Zailan asked with emotion.
"It's been years."
"5 years and 4 months." She said this number, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar street scene in front of her and the afterglow burning out on the horizon, a burst of joy and sourness came to her heart at the same time. She then shouted to vent her emotions.
"We're finally back, back to Shanghai. In the future, I will cover you! β
Feng Jingxi was taken aback by her sudden heroic shout. Even the men in the parallel cars stared at them through the glass in amazement.
He looked back at her, and the look in his eyes seemed to say, I'm such a big person, do I cover you as a girl?
Guan Zailan ignored it, her face was full of spring, and she smiled happily at him, as if she could really cover him.
The man in the car next to him was blushing and heartbeat from her smile, and he stepped on the steering wheel a few times to adjust the brake offset.
Feng Jingxi turned his head and stopped looking at her. It wasn't until Guan Yulan parked his car in the basement of the Caesar Building, and there was a special guide in the "VIP area" parking space, that a bodyguard-looking person respectfully came up to ask if it was Miss Guan, that Feng Jingxi finally felt that something was unusual.
Guan Zailan parked the car, quickly took out a set of precisely matched men's clothes and a shoebox from the trunk and handed them to the attentive security guard, and gave a cool order: "Help get the men's room next to it." β
Then he pushed Feng Jingxi into the bathroom door like the entrance of a luxury store.
βwhatβs upοΌβ He exclaimed.
"Please! This cost me almost two months' income, and for the sake of my dedication to your first social whirl, please change your clothes. This is the minimum social courtesy. β
Feng Jingxi looked stunned, he was still instinctively afraid of socializing. At a loss, he had already checked around to see if there was an exit, ready to escape, but saw the tall and mighty security guard holding his clothes behind him, and made a gesture to invite him in to change his clothes like Guan Zailan, with a toothy smile on his face.
I don't know how many smoking wires are tangled in his heart at this time. Guan Zailan read his micro-expressions and knew that he was sure of nine out of ten, so he added the last straw that broke the camel's back.
"Do you need him and me to go in and help you?"
Feng Jingxi had no choice but to go into the bathroom in the end, and the scene of being tied up seemed to have always been his daily routine between him and Zai Lan.
When he changed his clothes and looked at himself in the mirror, he felt like he saw the poor Cinderella wearing the crystal slipper, and he thought to himself, is Cinderella really voluntary in that story? Is it really not an adaptation of Huang Shiren's white-haired girl who is rich and unkind?
When he came out again, Guan Zailan's eyes lit up when he saw him, and he showed a smile of satisfaction and satisfaction, and the security guard had already left to greet other guest vehicles.
"What are you doing today?" Xue Yichen looked at her, looked down at Cheng Liang's Ferragamo Mengke shoes on his feet, and raised his head again and asked suspiciously.
"Since I dare to cover you, I must have a little bit of a background. And there is common sense in the social field, and it is best not to know who invited you to participate in a party; Why; What to do; to have fun. β
Guan Zailan turned to him as he spoke, reached out and stroked the hair on his forehead, helped him straighten his hairstyle, and then pulled him up and walked along, shoulder-to-shoulder with a tsundere catwalk, practicing a charming smirk. It's like a royal sister leading the little white rabbit to make a powder debut.
"In the blue, have you played it?" Feng Jingxi frowned and said displeasedly.
When she heard this, she glanced at him deeply, and boldly made a gesture of putting her index finger on his lips, leaning close to his face and whispering "shhh This is the first time Guan Zailan has treated Xue Yichen so ambiguously. It was the first time they had looked at each other so closely, and he saw her long golden-brown eyeliner dragging to the end of her eyes, her eyes rippling with affection; She saw his eyes as still as black as water closed slightly, and nothing happened in them.
Guan Zailan immediately left his body, clenched the handbag in his hand, and continued to walk forward.
"There will be a lot of surprises tonight." She turned back to him, and returned to her usual grace and beauty.
"What surprise?" Feng Jingxi had to follow in her footsteps, he felt that the trousers that suddenly tightened his belt made him lose his freedom and feel uneasy.
"Come to peace, don't be impatient." As Lan Youyou spoke, they had already climbed up the magnificent marble staircase and stepped into the bustling place on the ground.
The sun has left the eastern hemisphere far away, and the grand Lujiazui is opening its arms and waiting for the distinguished guests.
"In the blue? Have you arrived? "A very magnetic sound sounded in the Bluetooth of the mobile phone that was closed in blue.
"Just came out of the garage." Closed in the blue lightly answered.
"Hey, that kid really listens to you, what kind of trick did you use?" The voice on the other end was full of reverence.
"Beauty tricks, what else can it be?" She raised her voice in indignation.
"Hahaha...... I am convinced, convinced. No man would doubt this, except him. Those shrill laughs were about to pierce the eardrums that were locked in the blue.
Feng Jingxi only showed his southerner's unique sharp voice when he laughed, which was incomparably sassy, prodigal and cheap. The idol baggage of his heartthrob was instantly wiped out by this laughter.
Guan Zai Lan is not to be outdone. He shouted in a low voice, "Do you think you are the Monkey King?" Laughing so crazy? The new comer who just entered the company, Caesar is up and down the three princes and nine qing, and the east and west signs are all here today, pay attention to the image. β
Feng Jingxi, who was already holding a champagne glass at the 49th floor elite cocktail party, immediately shut up, and looked around to see if he was okay.
On this night, a huge chapel-like birthday cake appeared in the Independence Square in front of Caesar's Building. On a round cake made of five layers of ultra-luxurious crystal shells, a light candle with a rotating romaji5 stands and the simulated flame on the candle is lit up all over the body, dancing fiercely in the changing 3D imaging. This is the eye-catching sign of the birthday party for the 5th anniversary of the inauguration of Caesar's headquarters.
Outside the foyer on the first floor of the Caesars Park Hotel, a 5-meter-high, 50-meter-long extraordinary-sized welcoming flower wall of ivy and violets creates a fragrance among the flowers. The golden Caesar emblem is inlaid at the upper end, taking the righteousness of time forever.
Two rows of Greeters in black tuxedos spoke Chinese and English as they reached out to signal the direction of the guests, and in the lobby, the concierge ladies in little black dresses with their hair gracefully tucked behind their heads were busy leading the way and pressing elevator buttons. The huge LCD screen scrolls with Caesar's glorious memories and future prospects. The narrator is telling the story of a novel and unique building like the Seattle Central Library that has been painted in the Pudong enclosure as Caesar's first New Year's resolution in the cultural industry. A series of architectural renderings attracted many guests to stop and watch in the hall. Liszt's "Rhapsody" circulates in this three-story hollowed-out lobby with antique crystal lamps.
Everyone who walks in here will feel that the scenes here are dazzling and worthy of admiration like the land of the gods.
In fact, only the owner knows that all this is useless and meaningless. However, only such extravagant waste and exaggerated displays can make people ecstatic and excited. in order to buy people's hearts.
When Guan Yulan took Feng Jingxi to the Caesar red carpet, it was the entrance time for the high-end cocktail party in the evening, and they happened to pass by a group of celebrities and attracted reporters who were already ready on the side. The spotlight flickered incessantly, surrounding the people on the red carpet as a hunting ground for the media, as if to stun them into the incandescent ecstasy of the spotlights. Even Guan Zailan had never experienced such a formation, and he was suddenly messy. There were a few crisp 'clicks' right under their noses. Guan Zailan almost lost his center of gravity and stepped on his skirt, and Xue Yichen was also a little disoriented by the light.
At that end of the red carpet, a gilt Jimmy Choo heel stepped up the steps. As soon as the owner of this shoe appeared, it managed to focus people's attention.
This woman was dressed in a pale gold Chloe backless dress, with a slender figure, long hair pulled lightly, and skin like snow, she was indeed a beauty. However, today's entertainment media circle is not so easy to be conquered by beautiful girls, there is no prominent background, there is no exaggerated appearance, there is no makeup with smoke and eyes, and there will be no cameras on the red carpet aimed at you. And this beauty who was born out of nowhere was very free and easy, appeared in the spotlight without any routines, walked smoothly and naturally across the red carpet, shining from head to toe, and became a style of her own. Although she is a fresh face, she is full of light that is more dazzling than the current popular female stars. What's even more sensational is that not far behind her, pacing is the helmsman of Caesar Group, the owner of this grand business annual meeting, and Mu Pengfei, who has appeared on the cover of financial celebrity magazines countless times. They were not far away from each other, and an indescribable air current echoed in them. These veteran reporters have such a keen sense of smell, this pair of subjects that they do not give up, in an instant, swept away all the cameras, magnesium lights, male reporters in suits and leather shoes, and female reporters in high heels.
Feng Jingxi stepped up, stretched out his arm to set up Guan Zailan, and quickly moved her to the safety of the lobby, and the two of them let out a long breath.
Guan Zailan was suddenly approached by Feng Jingxi, and his cheeks were a little hot, and his fingers couldn't help but be deeply embedded in his arm because of nervousness and fear. The subtle sweetness of the girl crept across her face. And when she just looked up at him, the smile froze for a moment.
Feng Jingxi stood there, staring out the door with blazing eyes, staring at something intently. There was a bright reflection in his dark brown pupils, a gaze she had never seen in his eyes, the light she had been looking forward to for years, but had been delayed for the future. She followed his line of sight, the girl who had been surrounded by all eyes just now was stepping into the hall, her gaze also inadvertently swiped over, and when she saw them stop for a moment, they passed by like the light and shadow reflected on Xue Yichen's face in the evening.
Outside the building, a gust of wind blew from between the buildings, and the sound of gurgling water flowed from the central pool of the hall, and human voices buzzed around them. She looked at him and felt like a long, long time, as if all five years had passed like this. The girl had been surrounded by the crowd and reporters, and Xue Yichen was still standing in place.
"Xue Yichen! Feng Jingxi!? Guan Zailan's heart and voice trembled slightly.
He looked at her for a moment before he regained consciousness and seemed to recognize her.
There was a faint trace of sadness in his eyes, fleeting. But she saw it.
"In the blue, on this occasion...... I'm really not interested in going up. Can you go and play on your own? He whispered.
Guan Zailan has always felt that he and Feng Jingxi are related, and during the long treatment, she has become familiar with all his feelings and emotions, and there is only one memory area that he has always closed tightly, so that she has not been able to enter the door. With the sensitive intuition of psychology, she knew that this glimpse must have something to do with the crux of the problem. With what she knew about him, he didn't have much interest in beautiful women, she was not the only beautiful girl who had pursued him madly, of course, she hadn't started to pursue him yet, how could she admit that she was pursuing him? So, although her heart was sour, it was very unpleasant, she couldn't let him go, this was an opportunity. Maybe he can meet the girl and show her clues, maybe she can find out her details, maybe he can learn about the turn of the treatment from her; Or will he fall in love with that girl, will he fall in love with someone other than her?
Impossible, there is no such possibility. Guan Zailan told himself.
"Are you going to leave me here alone? It's not strange to have bachelors at parties, but bachelorettes aren't good. Guan Zailan looked at him and said alarmistly.
"What?"
"Have you ever heard of the beauty economy? It is young girls who go to social arenas to find sexual partners, and exchange their youth for money, status, fame and fortune. This is not the worst thing to hear, what else is there to catch Kaizi, Susie Huang, Huntress Girl......" she said, watching his face a little nervous and gloomy, and suddenly got a kind of comfort, which she expected.
"In the blue!"
Feng Jingxi closed his eyes and raised his hands in surrender. Today's Guan Zailan really makes him unable to parry, has that ironed and understanding personal doctor completely disappeared from his life? He had an extremely ominous premonition that his life would never again be as peaceful and peaceful as it was abroad. An unpredictable strangeness of the mountain rain was approaching him.
He had no choice but to move out of the last rescue, took out the phone and dialed Feng Jingxi's number.
"Hey, bro. SOSοΌ He felt like he was angry.
"Hey, what's wrong? Can't parry? The beautiful life back to China has just begun. The man on the other end gloated with his charming voice.
"If you're a little human, come here. I'll send you the address. Feng Jingxi pleaded.
"No, I don't. What floor are you on? Immediately there. β
Feng Jingxi was stunned for a moment, wondering if the voice over there could be from the tracking and positioning system.
"Ah, you're still in the lobby. I seem to see you. β
Feng Jingxi finally turned his head to look at Guan Zailan, his unbelievable eyes seemed to be looking at an unknown female spy in Mission Impossible.
At this time, Feng's voice had been restored to the real world, and he was slowly approaching with his highly recognizable laughter.
At the elevator entrance not far away, Xue Yichen, who was dressed in a straight suit and looked better than Pan An, had already walked over to him.
Guan Zailan looked at Feng Jingxi innocently and spread his arms.
"Oops, it seems that the two of us have made friends accidentally, and your reinforcements happen to be mine too."
Feng Jingxi was stunned, he had been stimulated enough today.
The three of them stood in the center of the hall, as if the past, present, and future were intertwined on a high dome overhead. They looked at each other, too late to ask the ins and outs, and didn't know if what would happen next could be held or not. But after all, this is the first time that the three of them have gathered after returning home, and it is worth celebrating.
"Don't be in a daze, I'm finally tired of being together again, let's go up and have a drink to suppress the shock. We're really not at odds with each other. It's rare that everyone is still dressed so ceremoniously and dressed up for the banquet. "Xue Yichen's ability to laugh and play has always been unabated.
Who can guess if you will be torn up after being kidnapped? Who can guess if it will be love at first sight in the next second? Due to fate, ambition is limited. Many lives begin with a feast, and as for the ending, let the fool try to guess.
