Chapter 42: Cocktail Party

With the picture of the door that had been hidden all along, a cold voice suddenly sounded, completely interrupting Qiu Zeyu's unfinished words.

Ji Citing's long body appeared at the door, a black suit under these dim lights, which made him a little more mysterious, his angular face was always gloomy, just a word, the atmosphere in the entire box instantly decreased a lot.

Bai Muchen and Qiu Zeyu glanced at each other.

Didn't you say you couldn't come over if you had something?

Ji Citing didn't pay attention to the surprise of the two, and walked towards the sofa with slender steps.

"That is, you know about work all day long, even when I come back, you don't give me the wind and dust, as your good brother, can I not worry about your marriage?" Bai Muchen was the first to regain his composure, as if the person who was complaining about Ji's resignation just now had nothing to do with him at all.

For a while, Qiu Zeyu's heart was complicated.

If it was before, he would have thought that Ji Citing was a person who was indifferent to the opposite sex, but last time, Ji Citing had clearly brought people to the villa where he lived, and it was not as close to women as they thought!

Ji Citing sat on the sofa and snorted disdainfully, "Instead of worrying about my affairs, you should think about yourself." ”

"What do I have to worry about, if I get married now, it's not a matter of time." Bai Muchen leaned lazily on the sofa, his handsome eyebrows were full of smiles.

He is not Ji Citing, cold and arrogant, not close to people, not close to women.

Qiu Zeyu, who had been muttering in his heart and didn't speak, finally couldn't listen anymore, and couldn't help but 'tsk', "Bai Muchen, you said that you want to be shameless, you don't have a girlfriend, and you can get married at any time, do you think you are me?" ”

Bai Muchen was about to pour the wine when he stopped suddenly, and for just a moment, a few hints of schadenfreude unconsciously appeared on his almost demonic face.

"Of course I won't be you." Bai Muchen evoked a smile, "After all, I won't look for a woman with a fear of marriage, it's boring." ”

Fear of marriage......

Qiu Zeyu's originally stiff face immediately 'brushed', and it turned blue and white for a while.

His girlfriend Xiang Qing has a fear of marriage, which is something that these friends all know.

I was laughing at Bai Muchen just now, and now when this matter is mentioned, it is simply a slap in the face!

Ji Citing sat lazily on the side, he was not interested in listening to the people in front of him, but he was a person who held a grudge, Bai Muchen was talking about him just now, and he still remembered it clearly.

"Mu Chen, you still have to worry about yourself first." Ji Citing had a malicious smile on the corner of his mouth, and there was a deep meaning in his words.

Bai Muchen 'cut' a sound, he was neither urged to marry, nor did he have a girlfriend with a fear of marriage disturbing him, what did he have to worry about.

"Have you forgotten the main reason why you were deported back to China?" Ji Citing put down the wine glass in his hand and reminded unhurriedly.

Bai Muchen's hand shook violently, and he glanced at Ji Citing with a displeased expression.

This season's resignation is simply to the point.

was forced to return to China, not to inherit the Bai family's family business, God knows how unwilling he was in his heart.

"Count you ruthless!" Bai Muchen gritted his teeth, "Since you care so much about my affairs, it's just right, my dad specially held a drinking party in order to let me see those people in the business world, why don't you go tomorrow?" ”

"Bai Muchen, have you been abroad for a long time, and your head is not good?"

When Qiu Zeyu heard that Bai Muchen actually asked Ji Citing to attend the drinking party hosted by his family, he leaned back and slapped his thigh with laughter, which was simply funnier than the joke of the year.

Although the Bai family is also a famous family that most people dare not offend in City C, the people who can go to the drinking party held by the Bai family are also some famous people, powerful and powerful.

But the current season of the court......

I've never liked to participate in this kind of event, unless it's some special circumstances, so I will barely go for a while.

Bai Muchen pursed the corners of his lips, he couldn't get used to Qiu Zeyu's gloating appearance, and without saying a word, he directly stretched out his legs and kicked in the direction of Qiu Zeyu, "You shut up for me!" ”

Ji Citing looked at the time in his hand, he was not in the mood for this boring pastime with these two people, so he got up and planned to leave.

"Leaving so soon?" Qiu Zeyu saw Ji Citing get up, and subconsciously asked.

He knew that it would be good for Ji Citing to come, and he couldn't expect him to stay in this place for a few hours.

"Hmm." Ji Citing replied lightly, "I still have some things, Mu Chen is back, your consumption here today is all counted in me." ”

"You have a bit of a conscience." Bai Muchen looked satisfied.

Ji Citing walked to the door, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and he tilted his head slightly, "I'll see you tomorrow night." ”

!!!

As soon as the words landed, the jaws of the two people in the box almost fell to the ground in surprise.

"What he just meant was that tomorrow to attend that drinking party at your house, right?" Qiu Zeyu swallowed his saliva, stared at the direction Ji Citing had just left, and asked with a look of surprise.

Bai Muchen nodded, "That's right, the resignation has changed a little too quickly, and I haven't slowed down yet." ”

After speaking, Bai Muchen's right hand slapped to the side, seriously doubting whether he was dreaming.

"Hey, where are you touching your hands!" Qiu Zeyu was sitting there well, and suddenly a hand slapped on his leg, and he quickly shook Bai Muchen's hand away, his eyes were full of disgust.

Ji Citing went out, and the look on his face returned to his previous indifference.

He naturally didn't have a lot of interest in this kind of crowded public place, but the drinking party that Li Wencha Lin Manrong was going to tomorrow happened to be the Bai family, and he wanted to go over and see what Lin Manrong wanted to toss.

……

The next day, Lin Manrong deliberately dressed up, with a big wavy roll on his shoulders at will, and a red bandeau dress made Lin Manrong's complexion look much whiter.

"Sister."

Lin Manrong was just about to go out, but Lin Zhuo, who was standing on the side, suddenly opened his mouth, and his somewhat dull eyes suddenly appeared a little afraid and uneasy.

"What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable? Lin Manrong saw that Lin Zhuo's expression was a little strange, and subconsciously asked.

During the day, Lin Manrong had already told Lin Zhuo in advance about going out tonight, and after making sure that Lin Zhuo had no problem with this, Lin Manrong made up his final decision, otherwise he would not worry that Lin Zhuo would be at home alone.

Lin Zhuo didn't speak, just clasped his hands together, and lowered his head a little sloppily.

Some accidental things that happened in the past two days still made him feel a little scared from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't know how to tell Lin Manrong.

"Xiao Zhuo, if you are scared at home alone, then I won't go, anyway, it's not particularly important." Lin Manrong smiled and put the bag in his hand on the table.

Lin Zhuo looked at Lin Manrong who was ready to go out, his two hands kept clenching, hesitating again and again, and finally picked up the bag on the table and put it in front of Lin Manrong.

"It's okay, sister, you can go." Lin Zhuo smiled, and the look of nervousness and fear just now finally eased a few points.

Lin Manrong was stunned for a moment before taking the bag in Lin Zhuo's hand, reaching out and patting Lin Zhuo's shoulder.

"Well, okay, I'll come back early then, you don't have to wait for me, go to bed early."

Lin Zhuo nodded, until Lin Manrong's back disappeared outside the door, and a trace of worry and fear appeared on his delicate face again.

As soon as Lin Manrong got in the car, his heart beat hard, and he had a bad premonition inexplicably, which made Lin Manrong not in a good mood along the way.

Half an hour later, Lin Manrong got out of the car at the door of a hotel.

As soon as he walked in, Lin Manrong immediately attracted the attention of many people, and instantly suppressed the momentum of most of the women present.

Lin Manrong stepped on eight-centimeter high heels and walked inside, completely unaware of the other women's dissatisfaction with her.

"Are you...... Xiaoman? ”

A middle-aged man with a glass of red wine walked up to Lin Manrong and asked, with a little uncertainty in his vigorous and powerful words.

Lin Manrong subconsciously stopped, and when he saw the face of the man who was talking to him, his face was surprised, "Uncle Zhou, you are also here?" ”

The middle-aged man in front of him, Lin Manrong knows.

Zhou Tian, a very powerful person in City C, had a very good relationship with Lin Manrong's mother before, but then Lin Manrong has been staying abroad and has not seen this person for a long time.

"Yes, when did you return to China, why didn't you say hello, hey." Zhou Tian sighed, and there was still some regret in his tone, "Are you living in the Lin family now?" ”

Lin Manrong smiled, since her mother died, the Lin family is not the original Lin family, how could Lin Xiu and Hua Ling let her stay in the Lin family with peace of mind.

"Not yet." The corners of Lin Manrong's lips hooked, and he said with a nonchalant expression.

Zhou Tian shook his head, as long as anyone who had some dealings with Lin Manrong's mother before, knew that the property in the hands of Lin Xiu's phoenix man was taken from Lin Manrong's mother, and now he drove his own daughter out and left the junior at home, which is simply ungrateful.

"Xiaoman, don't worry, if you need help in the future, just look for me."

Lin Manrong nodded, if there is Zhou Tian's help in the future, it will definitely be very good.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, but they didn't notice the chatter of several women not far away, looking indignant and dissatisfied.

"As soon as that woman came in just now, I knew that she must have come with a purpose, and sure enough, I guessed it."

A tall woman clasped her hands to her chest, staring at Lin Manrong with her eyes, and her tone of voice was also unconsciously a little mean and jealous.

"But no, I heard that Dong Chou next to him is powerful, and he is also an upright person, you look at how happy these two people are talking now, maybe it was the woman who seduced him." Another woman on the side chimed in.

Lin Manrong attracted the attention of many people as soon as she came in, and instantly stole most of the scenery of other women, so even if Lin Manrong was not the kind of person who would talk to her casually, it still made many women present grit their teeth with jealousy.

A woman dressed in a bewildering dress who had just walked over stopped her footsteps instantly when she heard the conversation between the two women.
