Chapter 45: The Daughter Who Was "Substituted" (7)
This connection hit Xi Yanwei's heart, and she smiled slightly: "Yes, I heard that Mr. Pei is investing in a work of Mr. Venice recently, do you know Mr. Venice?" ”
Unexpectedly, at this time, Pei Wenye suddenly withdrew his gaze and showed an interesting look at her: "Do you want to take it?" ”
This is too blunt to catch people off guard. Xi Yan was slightly stunned, staring at the rather threatening eyes, only to feel that the little caution in his heart was all seen through by the person in front of him.
But the more this time became, the more fearless she became, she took a deep breath, put on a confident smile, and nodded: "The film of the Venice teacher is the dream of everyone, and if there is an opportunity, I am not afraid of this challenge." ”
As soon as the words came out, the expressions of the people around him changed rapidly, and even Father Xi's expression became ugly. Obviously, this is not a good occasion to recommend yourself! Pei Wenye didn't come this time to build a line and cooperate, Xi Yanwei asked for a small role in an audition as the identity of the Xi family, if it upset people, it would be troublesome.
Xi Yan held his breath slightly, although the smile on his face was inconvenient, but his heart was beating nervously.
Hearing only a chuckle of "heh", Pei Wenye hooked the corners of her mouth, making her heart instantly put back in place.
However, in the next second, he heard the cold, mocking voice of the owner, "It's better to pack yourself well, the unsightly embroidered pillow than to do anything more crookedly." ”
After saying this, he didn't even bother to look at the girl with a stiff smile in front of him, and walked forward. And Xi Yanwei, who was standing in place, had not fully come to his senses, listening to the mocking tone, as well as the faint glance of disgust, he only felt that his face was like being slapped a few times, and it hurt hotly.
Xi Yan bit his lower lip slightly, so that the expression on his face would not become hideous. A string of crystal tears hung on her long, upturned eyelashes, and her body shook so pitifully. However, few of the people present paid attention to her pitiful appearance, and they were all thinking about Pei Wenye's thoughts.
Father Xi's face became even more gloomy, and he turned his head and glared at the pale girl in front of him, with disappointment in his eyes. He originally thought that this adopted daughter was a clever and sensible person, but he didn't expect to poke out this big basket for himself. Thinking that he might make Pei Wenye unhappy because of this, and missed an opportunity to match with Pei's family, he couldn't help but put all his anger on this ignorant adopted daughter.
"Don't go to the company these days, go to the etiquette teacher to make up for a few lessons."
A maid hurried over and interrupted the conversation between them. Suddenly, he handed over a package with both hands: "This is someone outside the door who asked me to hand it over to the young lady." ”
Parcel?
Xi Yan looked at her suspiciously for a while, then reached out and took the package.
As soon as she started it, a little bad premonition appeared in her heart. She ran to a corner with her skirt and hurriedly opened the package. Inside the package, however, was just a strange phone.
With a look of surprise on her face, she clicked on her phone and rummaged through it to see any clues. Sure enough, after a while, a video and an audio recording were actually pulled out of it.
Xi Yanwei's face became bad, and even his breathing became short. He struggled to hide his discomfort, and his trembling fingers clicked on the video.
"Smack-" With the sound of the phone falling to the ground, infinite panic appeared in her heart.
That video is a video of yourself buying and selling du medicine with others, and changing clothes!
It seemed that the voice from this side had alarmed several of the people who were talking, and they glanced curiously towards this side.
Xi Yanwei tried to maintain a stiff smile on his face, nodded at them, hugged the hot potato on the ground and hurriedly left, as if there were countless flood beasts chasing behind him.
Who...... Who the hell is it? How could there be such a thing?
She subconsciously glanced back at Xi Gu'an, who was leaning against the window.
No...... She's just a commoner, and she's never going to have so much power! That...... What exactly is the purpose of the person who posted the video?
……
On the other hand, in order to relieve the tension in Xi Gu's peace of mind, who participated in the banquet for the first time, Xi's mother took her to say hello to several wealthy businessmen who had been cooperating for a long time. Although Xi Gu'an's true identity was not introduced, the people present were all very good, and there were few secrets left in the family, and a few guesses defined Xi Gu'an as an illegitimate daughter whose identity was not easy to show. No matter what their identity is, for them, it is enough to represent the Xi family.
After talking to people a few times, even Xi Gu'an, who had long been accustomed to this atmosphere, felt a sense of boredom in her heart, and she said hello to her mother by drunken songs, and wanted to take a walk in the courtyard alone. Xi's mother was a little distressed, so she naturally agreed.
Unexpectedly, I happened to walk to the corner of the courtyard and met Pei Wenye who was on the phone.
The noise just now made everyone see clearly, and naturally knew that the identity of the person in front of them was not ordinary. Although Xi Guan wanted to hold a little bargaining chips, he didn't want to have anything to do with such a dangerous person, so he turned around and wanted to leave.
It's a pity that her movement was too big, and she was still discovered by Pei Wenye. The other party turned his head, and his eyes became a little darker against the background of ink, and although a pair of eyes were inorganic and indifferent, they crossed over as if they were shapely, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
It was a little late to leave at this time, Xi Gu'an stopped and came with just the right amount of apology on his face: "I didn't mean to eavesdrop on you, I just happened to pass by here." ”
Pei Wenye didn't have any angry expression on her face, she just nodded, as if accepting this apology, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
After saying this, Xi Gu'an wanted to leave directly, but was startled by the big guy's next sentence: "I've seen you ......"
Xi Gu'an raised his eyebrows in surprise, completely unable to understand how he could meet a person like Pei Wenye at the top according to the identity of the original owner. To put it bluntly, two people are like two ends of a pyramid, two parallel lines that do not intersect.
She didn't know how to respond to this sentence for a while, so she could only freeze in place, waiting for the other party to show the deep meaning of this sentence next. However, I didn't expect that the parties were also distressed by this sentence without a beginning and an end. Pei Wenye prides himself on his identity and status, no matter what the purpose is, there will definitely be no shortage of all kinds of women who come up. Whether it is the family or the appearance, it belongs to the top level, and it can be said that no rich daughter can refuse. However, his proud capital was defeated by the little girl he cared about so much for the first time.
The silent atmosphere continued to spread around the two, and the sluggish atmosphere between the two made the smile on Xi Guan's face gradually stiffen, but unfortunately everyone gathered at the banquet at this time, and they didn't want to take a breath to feed the mosquitoes.
Xi Guan was just about to say goodbye, but he heard a sound of footsteps.
"Huh?"
You don't have to turn your head to hear whose voice it is.
It can be said that Xi Yanwei is a person who is very good at controlling his emotions, and there is no trace of emotion on his face from the panic just now. It seemed that she had just seen her sister and a strange man, and she whispered "ah" in surprise.
"Sister, this is ......"
A trace of uncomfortable emotion flashed on Xi Gu'an's face, and he wanted to step forward half a step in front of this person, but the restraint in her heart made her stop. The cover-up now is even more strange, she doesn't want Xi Yanwei to take advantage of this and bind herself to this dangerous man.
However, the moment he saw the man in front of him, Xi Yan's eyes widened slightly, and the smile on his face completely stiffened on his face the moment he approached.
She naturally has some knowledge, if she wasn't mistaken, this is the head of the Pei family who everyone was scrambling at the banquet just now!
Why did this person know Xi Gu'an?!
A hint of panic flashed in Xi Yanwei's mind. Just now, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xi Gu'an talking and laughing with a strange man at the window, and the strange and dangerous premonition made her want to come and see the situation, but she didn't expect to see this man.
Seeing a deep fear in her eyes, Xi Gu suddenly had a feeling of fox and tiger power in her peace of mind.
Xi Yanwei's mood changed quickly, but after a while, she regained a sweet smile. I have to say that her face is still very talented, different from Xi Gu'an's extremely impactful face, her facial features are exquisite, her skin is fair, a pair of big apricot eyes are bent into a crescent moon shape when she smiles, and there are two sweet dimples on the side of her mouth. It can be said that it is a very standard and pure first love face.
This face is easy to arouse the favor of others, and Xi Yanwei can be said to have developed his talent to the limit. She stepped forward and brushed her sideburns and bangs to the side, revealing her fair, slender neck.
"Hello, my name is Xi Yanwei, are you and my sister good friends?" Her big eyes flashed with ignorance, and she seemed to be genuinely concerned, "I haven't heard my sister say that she has such a powerful friend?" ”
Xi Guan sneered, and his arms seemed to be watching a good show.
Pei Wenye had already restrained his cold momentum just now, and regained his cold and impersonal appearance. His gaze only flashed at the woman in front of him, and he shifted his gaze uninterestedly, as if he was brushing off a grain of dust that he didn't care about at all, and continued to stare at Xi Gu'an on the side.
Xi Yan's face froze slightly, and he almost couldn't hold back the smile on his face.
Xi Guan felt inexplicably funny, today seemed to be a lucky day, and he could see his opponent so aggrieved in a row. It just so happened that I also heard the message of "counterattack value -10%, luck value -100" prompted by the system, and I couldn't help but have a smile on my face.
Unprecedentedly, she took the initiative to explain: "I came to ask for directions, it just so happened that I am not familiar with the Xi family, so you can take the way." After saying this, she didn't wait for the unpredictable expressions on the faces of the two people, and left sideways from the two of them.
"Have fun."
