Chapter 196: Invitation Rejected
After returning from Maui, the relationship between Huo Beixiao and Gu Nanyin became more affectionate and sweet. It has been said that a romantic trip can capture a loved one's heart for a lifetime. Now it seems that there is some truth to this statement. Especially for Gu Nanyin, after this trip, she has a stronger sense of dependence on men. As long as he is by his side, he is not afraid of anything.
A period of calm passed, and on this day, Mo Lijin invited Huo Beixiao and Gu Nanyin to his company as guests, saying that there was something important to discuss with them.
Coming to the revolving conference room on the top floor of Liuli Entertainment Group, Gu Nanyin overlooked the entire city A through the floor-to-ceiling windows. And Huo Beixiao sat on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed, looking very bored.
After a while, Mo Lijin walked in, and the secretary behind him was holding three cups of fragrant coffee.
"Come on, two! How about a taste of my new civet coffee? ”
Mo Lijin greeted warmly, and at the same time asked the secretary to bring the coffee to the two guests.
Gu Nanyin returned to the sofa and took a closer look.
"Well, that's good! It's the best coffee I've ever had in recent times. ”
Mo Lijin gave a happy thumbs up.
"It's still Nanyin tasteful! Beixiao, what do you think? ”
Huo Beixiao just smelled the coffee and didn't drink it. He slumped back and stared at Mo Lijin with disdain.
"You didn't call us all the way to drink this thing, did you? If there is something to do, just say it, and if it's okay, we'll go first. ”
Mo Lijin frowned and hurriedly stopped him.
"Look at you, what's the hurry? Even if I have something, I'll have to wait until you've rested enough! ”
Huo Beixiao raised his head.
"Less nonsense! If it weren't for us, you probably wouldn't have brought us directly to the company to meet, right? It's all old rivers and lakes, so don't go around those bends. ”
was ruthlessly complained by Huo Beixiao, which made Mo Lijin's face a little unbearable. Fortunately, he himself was very thick-skinned, and soon returned to the state of giggling.
"Well, since you say so, then I won't hide anything more. In fact, at the end of next month, the first film invested and filmed by our company, "King of the Desert", will start shooting in City C. I'd like to invite the two of you to the kick-off ceremony, and by the way, go to the shooting location C City Desert to have a fun. What do you think of my arrangement? ”
Huo Beixiao turned his head to the other side disdainfully.
"What does the launch of the movie you invested in have to do with us?"
Mo Lijin hurriedly persuaded him.
"Beixiao, you can't say that! Liuli Entertainment Group itself has your shares, so you are also one of the investors in "King of the Desert". In the future, if the film makes money, you can participate in the share. Besides, there will be a lot of celebrities present at this opening ceremony. Among them is the famous actor who played the leading role in this film - the crown. ”
As soon as he heard this name, Gu Nanyin's eyes lit up instantly.
"Will the crown star in this movie? Mo Lijin, how did you get him? He is now one of the biggest stars in the film and television industry! ”
Mo Lijin smiled slightly and made a gesture to count the money.
"As long as the money is in place, anything can be said. By the way, Nanyin, looking at your expression, it seems that you appreciate the crown very much? ”
Gu Nanyin smiled and nodded.
"I've seen his films before, and I feel that in addition to being handsome, he also has very good acting skills. And he just won the Best Actor at the Film Festival last month, and now he is the actor! ”
After listening to Gu Nanyin's words, Mo Lijin smiled very brightly.
"Since you know the crown so well, this opening ceremony will be a good opportunity for you to communicate! When the time comes, we will have a meal together and look forward to the performance of the movie after its release. ”
When Mo Lijin said this, Gu Nanyin couldn't help but itch in her heart. She looked at Huo Beixiao with expectant eyes, hoping that he would finally agree to Mo Lijin's invitation.
I saw Huo Beixiao stand up and walk straight to the door, and at the same time made a gesture to Gu Nanyin to leave.
Mo Lijin saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly ran to Huo Beixiao to stop him.
"Bei Xiao, what are you doing here? We have something to discuss! ”
Huo Beixiao stood still and looked at his good friend in front of him expressionlessly.
"If nothing else, you get out of the way."
Speaking of this, he turned his head and glanced at Gu Nanyin behind him.
"If you don't come with me, take a taxi back by yourself. I won't come back to pick you up. ”
Although he felt that Huo Beixiao's approach was not appropriate in his heart, Gu Nanyin couldn't say anything about him in front of outsiders. So the woman came to Mo Lijin and said goodbye to him with guilt. Then followed Huo Beixiao and left Liuli Entertainment Group.
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Mo Lijin secretly prayed in his heart.
"Nanyin, I hope you can have a way to convince Beixiao ......"
On the way home, Huo Beixiao didn't speak. And Gu Nanyin, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, did not find a suitable topic. The two of them sat quietly, and the atmosphere in the carriage was really a little dull.
After a third of the journey, Huo Beixiao suddenly asked.
"Do you particularly want me to promise Mo Lijin?"
Gu Nanyin was slightly stunned, and then shook his head slightly.
"It doesn't matter to me whether I agree or not to your choice."
Huo Beixiao raised his eyebrows.
"Don't you want to see the crown?"
Gu Nanyin's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"I'm not a star chaser, and celebrities don't have that much attraction to me."
Huo Beixiao sneered.
"But just now in front of Mo Lijin, your appreciation for him is beyond words. So it's hard for me to believe that what you're saying right now is from your heart. ”
Gu Nanyin smiled helplessly.
"Say whatever you want, I won't pay attention to you anymore."
Huo Beixiao was silent for a moment, and then continued to ask something that Gu Nanyin didn't expect.
"In your heart, who is more handsome, me or the crown? I want to hear the truth. ”
Gu Nanyin looked at the man with a calm face, and replied seriously word by word.
"In my heart, you will always be the most handsome man. No matter who you are, you can't compare to you. ”
In fact, Huo Beixiao really wanted to continue to find Gu Nanyin's stubble, such as commenting on her insincerity, not saying what she was thinking, and so on. But Gu Nanyin's tone when he spoke made him unable to complain at all. Because of the sincerity shown by women, no one in the world can deny it. Even if this person is the most demanding Huo Beixiao.
Time passed day by day, as if the incident Mo Lijin said was about to end in the passage of time. But one morning, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse.
Lu Qiran came to the president's office and reported to Huo Beixiao.
"Mr. Huo, the representative of the Taishi Group in City C is waiting for your meeting in the reception room."
Hearing this, Huo Beixiao put down the pen and glanced at Lu Qiran.
"Is that the company Tai Hui founded?"
Lu Qiran nodded.
"That's right."
Huo Beixiao crossed his arms, his eyes deepened.
