Huo Yuan got up and tidied up his suit, not showing too much surprise.

On the contrary, Bai Xiaoxian's face was embarrassed, and after thinking about it for a long time, there was no way to help Xia Mingyue hide it, so she could only explain truthfully.

"I'm sorry, I'm here for someone else."

After speaking, Bai Xiaoxian called Xia Mingyue and directly told her that the blind date was Huo Yuan, and asked Xia Mingyue to come over quickly, but Xia Mingyue was hesitant on the phone and refused to come over, but Huo Yuan personally went over to arrest people.

He had already seen Xia Mingyue outside the café who covered himself tightly.

"You little girl, seeing what I'm hiding, I won't really take you to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get married."

Xia Mingyue was dressed in casual clothes, wearing a hat, mask, and sunglasses, covering herself tightly, and under the mask was a small face without makeup, with a depressed face.

When she heard Huo Yuan say this, she was not very happy, and her mouth pursed even harder.

She didn't say a word, Huo Yuan looked at her and said.

"It's covered like this in the big summer, and you're not too hot, so hurry up and pick it up."

Bai Xiaoxian also felt hot, so she started to help her, but Xia Mingyue was wearing a hat and mask, shaking her head vigorously, but she didn't take it off.

Remember the URL

Huo Yuan was puzzled, but Bai Xiaoxian reacted and explained to Huo Yuan with a smile.

"She didn't wear makeup."

Huo Yuan also smiled and spoke to Xia Mingyue.

"Little girl, I haven't seen what you look like, you don't even have gender in my heart, what are you shy."

Xia Mingyue's little face under the mask was about to be drawn together.

Bai Xiaoxian didn't bother to pay attention to Xia Mingyue, just regarded this bureau as a gathering of friends, and said casually.

"I never thought that the person who went on a blind date with Xia Mingyue turned out to be you."

Huo Yuan pondered for a long time before replying.

"My Chinese mentor abroad knew that I had been going to introduce my girlfriend to me after I returned to China, and I shirked it many times, but I really couldn't shirk it, so I thought about making it clear to the other party in person, so I agreed to meet."

"I didn't expect that the person introduced by my mentor turned out to be my sister who I have known since I was a child!"

Huo Yuan teased Xia Mingyue, Xia Mingyue didn't say a word, just sat next to Bai Xiaoxian and watched the two of them chat.

After saying this, he was cold for a long time, and Huo Yuan saw that Xia Mingyue ignored him, so he changed the topic and said to Bai Xiaoxian.

"You're so beautiful today."

Bai Xiaoxian glanced down at the gorgeous skirt, avoided Huo Yuan's deep eyes, and replied.

"It's not Mingyue yet, I'm worried that I'll damage her image, so she dressed me up like this."

The three of them chatted, and only Bai Xiaoxian and Huo Yuan chatted with each other during the whole process, and finally Huo Yuan proposed, and when he went back, he said that both parties felt that it was inappropriate, and when he ended this embarrassing blind date, Xia Mingyue nodded.

Huo Yuan's original intention was to come over and have a coffee with his blind date, so he arranged an itinerary for dinner and offered to send Bai Xiaoxian and Xia Mingyue, but they were all refused.

Bai Xiaoxian felt that Xia Mingyue's reaction today was particularly strange.

When Xia Mingyue was young, she always followed Huo Yuan's ass and called "Brother Huo Yuan, Brother Huo Yuan", which was simply Huo Yuan's follower.

She is also a little expert in the lively atmosphere at the dinner table, so it stands to reason that she should be babbling today.

I haven't seen you for so many years, estranged?

"Mingyue, even if you and Brother Huo Yuan haven't seen each other for a long time, then you won't say a word, right?"

"I don't want to say it."

Xia Mingyue replied, got in the car and left, Bai Xiaoxian felt that her mood was wrong, and asked several times on WeChat, but she refused to answer, so she could only give up.

After drinking afternoon tea, it was still early, Bai Xiaoxian didn't want to go home yet, so she just walked around, but she didn't expect the café to be so close to Bai's, and she arrived just by walking.

Bai Xiaoxian didn't notice that when she walked to Bai's, it was already dark at dawn.

Although she refused to admit that she had a goal in mind, the fact was that she wanted to go to the Bai family to see.

After Bai's accident, the entire building was sealed, and she stood downstairs, looking at the towering building, and the emotions in her heart could not be expressed in words.

That night, she stood downstairs for a long time.

It was so long that she shivered from the cold, and she stubbornly refused to leave, until a coat was draped over her, and she came back to her senses and looked at the person who had put on her coat.

"Professor Gu."

Gu Feng stood side by side with her, followed her line of sight just now, his voice was not loud, and he said a word in a firm tone.

"You'll be standing at the top of this building again, looking down on the city."

"Huh?"

Bai Xiaoxian didn't hear clearly, let alone understand.

Gu Feng shook his head slightly, looked at Bai Xiaoxian, and asked.

"This building will be auctioned again next week, and there will be a new owner soon, what are your plans?"

Bai Xiaoxian frowned, she didn't know how to answer Professor Gu, she was just a bankrupt daughter and a poor student now, this building had nothing to do with her for a long time, what could she do?

But Gu Feng seemed to be waiting for her to answer, so she could only shake her head and answer truthfully.

"I didn't plan to."

"You can ask the Huo family to help you take pictures, you can also use the power of the Huo family to get the highest investment, and you can also ......"

Before Gu Feng finished speaking, Bai Xiaoxian interrupted.

"Professor Gu, you are a bit biased against me, and now that I am a member of your project team, it is necessary to explain it to you."

"I did marry into the Huo family, and I also married a vegetative person, and this marriage does involve money transactions, but I have never been a moth of the Huo family, a bloodsucking devil, my deal with the Huo family has been reached before marriage, I am grateful to the Huo family for saving me from fire and water, how to be grateful is my private matter, but I can assure you that the 'can' you think you can not be here."

"Thank you for the coat, I don't need it."

Bai Xiaoxian took off Gu Feng's clothes and returned them to him, but Gu Feng didn't answer them, and the coat fell to the ground like this.

She didn't think about it, strode away, Gu Feng chased after her, and put the coat on her again.

"Don't take it off, I want to talk to you."

"Aren't you just as biased against me?"

Bai Xiaoxian retorted in her heart, "I'm not biased against you, saying that you are a working machine, a perverted professor, which word is wrong?" Besides, these stereotypes are the stereotypes of all your students, and everyone thinks so, then you are such a person. ”

However, after thinking about it, Bai Xiaoxian still wanted to do a project in the project team of the famous Professor Gu, so she still decided to talk to the professor.

I thought that I would at least go to a café to sit and talk, but how could Professor Gu Da be a normal person's thinking?

The two of them stood in the cold wind of the night and talked about the grand cause of life.

It was Gu Feng who spoke first.

"Bai's success used to be a classic case in textbooks, and the classics cannot be reproduced, but they should be learned from."

"I believe that you will not let your father's career precipitate into a handful of loess, but ambition alone will not do anything, as the daughter of your master, I am looking forward to your new vision of the Bai family."

Gu Feng called Bai Xiaoxian's father a master?

"Professor, you call my father ......"

"When I was eighteen years old and followed your father into business, you were just five years old, and I didn't know that I was normal."

"Back then, I was sorry for the master, he didn't want to recognize me, and it's normal that you didn't hear him mention me."

"I don't want to talk to you about the past, you just need to know that it's enough for me to help you revive the Bai clan for the sake of the master."

Gu Feng's explanation, without a single superfluous nonsense, quickly got to the point.

"I know that Mrs. Huo has entrusted you with full responsibility for several small shops in Xicheng District, and you are already preparing to run a restaurant, I guess you are ready to continue to do catering to revitalize the Bai family, right?"

Bai Xiaoxian also wanted to ask Gu Feng about her father, but looking at Gu Feng's appearance, he didn't want to say it, and he probably couldn't ask anything.

However, Gu Feng should have no malicious intent.

Besides, the answer to this question is known without asking.

Bai Xiaoxian nodded, Gu Feng shook his head and continued.

"Although Bai's started with catering, there were many uneasy and well-meaning people who fell into the well when Bai's had an accident, falsely accusing Bai's catering of being unclean, and once there was a food safety problem, it would take a long time to re-form the brand image if it wanted to reverse the customer's inherent impression, which was not a feasible way in the short term."

"Instead of blindly thinking about reviving the Bai clan and following the old path of the Bai clan, you should think about what your advantages are and start from scratch."

Gu Feng had already said enough to Bai Xiaoxian, and the question he threw out needed to give Bai Xiaoxian time to think about it seriously.

After speaking, he mentioned, "It's not early, let's go back early!" ”

Then, Gu Feng left first.

After Gu Feng left, Bai Xiaoxian looked up at the Bai family building again, her heart was full of confusion, she looked at the time It was already ten o'clock in the evening, it was time to hurry back to the Huo family.

……

Huo family.

Bai Xiaoxian is used to light makeup, but today she was forced to wear a big heavy makeup by Xia Mingyue, although she can easily control heavy makeup, and the degree of amazement reaches 200%, but she herself looks uncomfortable and is not used to it, so she quickly took it off when she got home, put on a plain white and tender little face, changed into a lace suspender nightdress, and lay on the bed to chat with her husband.

"Lin Qi, you know what? The Bai Building is about to be auctioned, your mother told me, and she also said that she could help me auction the Bai Building, and your mother is so good to me that I don't even know how to repay her. ”

"Every brick and tile of the Bai Building is my father's effort, and as long as I think that it will not belong to my father, I feel very sad."

"But I refused your mother to help me take pictures of the Bai Building, I can't pay off what I owe to the Huo family, and I think that one day in the future, I will have the ability to buy the Bai Building back."

"You say, do I have that ability?"

"I unconsciously walked to the Bai building today, stood downstairs, and met a professor at our university, who said that my father was his master, but I never heard my father mention it, and I don't know what happened between them."

"He said he would help me, do you think I should believe him?"

"I actually can't believe others anymore, probably once I was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope!"

"But he said that I should not blindly pursue the old path of the Bai family, but should think about what my advantages are, and use my advantages to start from scratch and revitalize the Bai family, I think what he said is quite right."

"But...... What are my strengths? ”
