Chapter 384: The Ke Family Gathering
After dressing up carefully, Gu Xinran deliberately walked around the villa twice in high heels to practice his confident pace a little.
Thinking about how confident she was when she first returned to City A, when she stood by Fang Yiyuan's side, and now standing next to a man who can give her a greater sense of security, her steps can only be more confident.
Sitting in Ke Shaochen's Rolls-Royce, Gu Xinran took out a small mirror and still checked her delicate makeup, she deliberately wore a dress made for her by Fang Yiyuan today, since she thought that someone would definitely mention her and Fang Yiyuan's previous marriage, Gu Xinran did not hide it, not to mention that the clothes made by Fang Yiyuan were really good-looking.
"Are you going to a party, or are you going to a beauty pageant?" Ke Shaochen saw that she was about to see through the mirror, snatched the mirror, pressed the car window, and threw it out of the window.
"Ah, my mirror."
"When you get to the old mansion in a while, some people will look at you."
The Ke family's old house, this is Gu Xinran's second visit.
She remembered that the first time she went was to celebrate Ke Shaochen's grandfather's birthday, although it was winter, the small garden outside the old mansion was still very chic, and a lot of winter flowers were planted.
The next time I went was at the end of September in autumn, and I think it would be even more beautiful than when I went in winter.
However, when the car drove to the old mansion, Gu Xinran was a little disappointed, everything was bare and not a little angry, except for a few big trees, the flowers seemed to be all gone.
"I remember the last time I visited, there were a lot of flowers in the garden, why aren't they now?" Gu Xinran looked at the courtyard and asked Ke Shaochen before he got out of the car: "Originally, I thought that if the people inside were not friendly to me, I would come out to enjoy the flowers to pass the time, it seems that I can only appreciate the big tree to relieve my boredom." ”
"When you came here before, it was your grandfather who had been ordering people to take care of it, but now only Ke Jinrong and Ke Shaojun live here, do you think they have the sentiment to take care of flowers and plants?"
"Then why do you want to come to the old mansion to party?"
"The Ke family's old house is the largest private villa in City A, big enough to fit so many people."
The driver had already opened the car door, Gu Xinran pouted and stepped out of the car.
Holding Ke Shaochen's arm, Gu Xinran straightened his waist, raised his head slightly, and followed Ke Shaochen's footsteps to the door of the villa.
"It's not for you to go to war, you don't have to look at death so much." Ke Shaochen said softly, and he suddenly felt that Gu Xinran was indeed much more cheerful than before.
"It's more terrible than fighting, and I already have a premonition that a bloody storm is approaching me."
"Are you afraid?" Ke Shaochen asked her.
"Don't be afraid, because you're by my side."
A simple sentence can tickle Ke Shaochen's heart, and he likes to listen to Gu Xinran's words to him the most.
With him by her side, she will not be afraid no matter what she does, because no matter when and where, Ke Shaochen will not let her be hurt.
The doors opened, and the old mansion was still as magnificent as ever.
"Shaochen is here." The first to greet them was Ke Shaochen's aunt Ke Huixin, but the moment she saw Gu Xinran, the smile on her face disappeared instantly: "Shaochen, how could this woman come with you?" ”
"He's my girlfriend." Ke Shaochen said this lightly, and his eyes began to scan the people in the old mansion, and finally put it on Ke Huixin: "It's also my ex-wife." ”
Mentioning the title of ex-wife in a good manner, Gu Xinran turned his head slightly to look at Ke Shaochen, it turned out that he had not forgotten the scene when the Ke family forced him and Gu Xinran to divorce.
"You say a married woman is your girlfriend?" Ke Huixin looked at Ke Shaochen in disbelief, and then turned to Gu Xinran: "Gu Xinran, don't you think it's ridiculous that you and Shaochen are standing here together?" ”
"I haven't seen my aunt for a long time, I am indeed Ke Shaochen's girlfriend now, and Designer Fang and I have completed the divorce procedures in Paris, so I don't feel ridiculous standing here."
"Let's go in first, go find your little friend." Ke Shaochen no longer paid attention to Ke Huixin's questioning, and led Gu Xinran to the villa dotingly, such a party, presumably Ke Shaojing would not be late, and sure enough, after hearing their voices, Ke Shaojing trotted to them.
Probably Ke Shaojing didn't expect Gu Xinran to come to participate, she knew everything in her heart, this party was not friendly to Gu Xinran, she had already learned from Uncle Zhang's mouth the reasons and circumstances of Gu Xinran and Ke Shaochen's divorce, it can be said that except for herself, the Ke family didn't like Gu Xinran.
In addition, Gu Xinran and Fang Yiyuan showed their affection at the fashion week before, and a magazine wrote an interview and report for them, a few days before the end of the fashion week, Gu Xinran came to the Ke family's family party as Ke Shaochen's girlfriend, Ke Shaojing never expected.
took the initiative to challenge the accusations that may be encountered, Ke Shaojing really wanted to praise her Xinran sister.
"Big brother, I want to take Sister Xinran to my room to play, if you finish saying hello to the elders later, come to my room to find us." 520
"Go ahead, with you, she won't be alone."
When Ke Shaojing first met the Ke family, she lived in the old mansion with her father and brother for a while, and later Ke Shaochen was afraid that the father and son would take her badly, so she bought a small villa for Ke Shaojing and let her live alone.
However, she has always kept the room in the old mansion, just like Ke Shaochen's home has set aside a room for her, but since Gu Xinran came back, she has not been to Ke Shaochen's house.
Of course, Gu Xinran will also have such complaints, but Ke Shaojing's explanation is that she really wants to go to her eldest brother's villa to play with Gu Xinran, and she is afraid of disturbing their intimacy.
Don't look at Ke Shaojing's simplicity, after all, she is already a girl in her twenties, and she understands everything she should know.
The two of them only reunited after two and a half years, and after more than half a year of entanglement, they are finally together, and they are not stuck together all the time like magnets.
Ke Shaojing, as a single dog, naturally didn't want to disturb them, how embarrassing it would be if she heard something that shouldn't be heard at night.
"Sister Xinran, is it okay with Designer Fang?" Ke Shaojing sat cross-legged on the bed, holding a teddy bear and looking at Gu Xinran: "Actually, if it weren't for my eldest brother, I wouldn't have hoped so much that you would divorce Designer Fang, after all, he is the ...... Anyway, it seems pretty good. ”
"Fang Yiyuan is very good, good to me, good personality, rich, status, talented, good looks, sometimes when I stand next to him, I feel very small and ashamed." Gu Xinran also played with a plush toy in his hand, threw it up, caught it, and kept repeating: "But I have too many preconceived feelings for him, thinking that he is my benefactor, my friend, and my family." ”
"It's just a lack of love......"
"Well, I like him very much, it's the kind of love from the heart, the kind of feeling like I like you, but it's not the love of love."
Ke Shaojing nodded: "I understand, just like my eldest brother's love and closeness as a family member." ”
"It's a pity to get divorced." Gu Xinran laughed and joked with Ke Shaojing: "Your eldest brother always has a straight face, is serious, and won't make me happy." ”
Ke Shaojing nodded desperately, smiled evilly and whispered: "I feel the same way, if I had to choose, I would definitely choose a designer, my eldest brother he ......"
She grimaced, hugged Gu Xinran and laughed.
After laughing, Gu Xinran remembered the theme of today's Ke family gathering: "By the way, Shaojing, I just came in, and I didn't pay attention to some people, I heard Ke Shaochen say that your aunt's son has been abroad for many years, and this party was held because he returned to China." ”
"My cousin is indeed very powerful, he studied business administration and now has a doctorate, and he came back this time, it seems that his aunt also meant, let him enter Ke's and help manage the company."
"No matter how good the management is, you can't become the president when you enter the Ke family, isn't the Ke family only the person surnamed Ke can serve as the president? With such a high degree of education, if you open a company by yourself, it should be more valuable than staying in Keshi. ”
"That's just as well." Ke Shaojing didn't understand the work of these men, and seemed to be desperate to become the president: "My cousin really can't be the president of Ke's, but it's ......"
"But what?"
"I don't know if I'm right, I always feel that my cousin is more like a strategist, just like Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi during the Three Kingdoms period, the kind that can give advice to people."
Gu Xinran also fell into deep thought after hearing this, if according to Ke Shaojing's thoughts, then this young master who has returned from his studies is really a powerful character.
However, if such a person enters Ke's work, if he can give advice to Ke Shaochen or help him manage the company together, he will not let Mr. President have endless work to worry about every day, and he will not be as tired as he is now.
If you can't become Ke Shaochen's person, but help others......
There was a sudden knock on the door of the room, Ke Shaojing thought that his eldest brother was coming, and hurriedly ran out of bed to open the door, but it was another person who didn't want to stand at the door.
"Auntie?"
Hearing Ke Shaojing shout like this, Gu Xinran also turned his head to look at the door, only to see Lu Qing standing at the door with a smile on his face.
"I didn't bother you to whisper, did I?"
"How could it be, but I felt that there were too many Ke family members, and it was very uncomfortable to stay in the living room, so I hid in the room with Sister Xinran and hid to be idle." Ke Shaojing said and invited Lu Qing into the room: "Aunt Cousin also come in and sit." ”
"Although you call me aunt, it's not a few years older than you, so you don't have to be so polite to me." Lu Qing walked in and looked at Gu Xinran who was sitting on the bed: "Sister Xinran and I are high school classmates, but we have rarely seen each other in the past few years, so I just took this opportunity to catch up on the old days. ”
"Then I'll go down first to see if there's anything delicious, you guys talk first, and I'll bring the food over later."
After Ke Shaojing left, Lu Qing walked to the door and closed the door.
Since she took the initiative to find her, she must have something to say to her, Gu Xinran pinched her fingers and calculated, since she returned to City A, she had only met Lu Qing twice, once Lu Qing took the initiative to find her and asked her to help drive Li Ruohan away from Ke Ziqian's side, and once at Ke Shaojing's stable party, but that time they barely spoke.
