Chapter Eighty-Nine: A Little Episode at the Birthday Banquet
The sunset shines on the mountains, and the glow tilts the mountains. The sun sets, the glow fades in the twilight at the end of the city, and there is a colorful glow at the top of the peak, which will not be extinguished.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun sets.
Pan Hua and Song Qingshu came to the pavilion where the banquet was held, and there was a champagne and cake table in the open space in front of the door, and many guests were chatting shallowly.
"Oh, that's Pan Huae!"
With the arrival of Pan Hua, someone recognized her.
After all, there are many celebrities in the circle present, even if they have never cooperated, but for her highly recognizable height and appearance, it is a very eye-catching existence.
"It seems that the Song family's banquet has really made a lot of money, and even international supermodels have been invited!"
"Look, she and the little young master of the Song family walked side by side, could the two of them ......?"
"Wow, it's really a talented man and a woman, you see the picture of the two of them walking together is like a beautiful scenery, it's really a perfect match!"
"Hey, I think it's kind of funny when you say that. It's a good match! ”
The entertainment industry is the birthplace of gossip, and there is no shortage of gossip people in high society; These strange remarks spread more and more violently with the appearance of Pan Hua.
Song Qingshu was noncommittal about this, his eyebrows were as indifferent as water, as if he had not heard of it; As for Pan Hua, she is also accustomed to this kind of ill-intentioned speculation.
At the entrance of the pavilion, she saw that many guests were handing over gifts to the waiter in front of the door, so she turned around and took the gift box from Assistant Lin's hand and stepped forward.
"What's wrong?"
Before he could take two steps, Song Qingshu brought over two glasses of champagne, and when he saw Pan Hua holding the gift box and preparing to move forward, he couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this, Pan Hua paused, put the gift box in the palm of her hand, and responded with a light smile: "It's not much, this is a thin gift I prepared for the old lady, I'll give it to ......."
The words were still on her lips, but Song Qingshu handed her the champagne and said to herself: "Since it is for grandma, it is better for you to hand it over to her in person for a while." ”
Pan Hua: "......"
A stunned face froze in place, staring at the gift box with two eyes, is this good?
Suddenly, she looked up at Song Qingshu suspiciously, and then turned her eyes to look at the waiter at the door who kept accepting gifts and recording.
As if seeing her doubts, Song Qingshu took the cup and touched her wine glass lightly, and said in a gentle and polite tone: "Have you forgotten?" I told you before that grandma admires you, so you personally handed it over to her, and the old man must have liked it. ”
Oh, I see!
A few minutes later, Song Qingshu wanted to entertain the guests, and after instructing Pan Hua a few words, he turned around and merged into the crowd.
Assistant Lin followed Pan Hua in a hurry, the gift box was re-clamped in the crook of her arm, and the cake was dragged in the palm of her hand, eating elegantly in small bites.
Suddenly, a soft, playful voice came from behind the two of them.
"Brother and sister, what a coincidence!"
The title of 'brother and sister' is no stranger to Pan Hua. But to her surprise, at the Song family's dinner, she would meet acquaintances.
She followed the sound to look at the figure from far and near, and the light hit him, slender and straight, soaked in a bit of pride.
"Mr. Joe."
"Tsk!" Qiao Mu snorted disapprovingly, "Why are you so unfamiliar, if you don't mind, it's okay to call me second brother?" ”
Pan Hua: "......"
She coughed lightly, no longer hypocritical, thinking about his relationship with cold-bloodedness, and fell into a natural jaw, "Does Second Brother Qiao also know the people of the Song family?" ”
"It's familiar, some business dealings!" As Qiao Mu spoke, his eyes touched Pan Hua's back, and he found that there was a shadowy figure that seemed to be dodging, he didn't think much about it, but he didn't know who was passing by, and bumped into her, and the figure behind him staggered and appeared in Qiao Mu's sight.
Assistant Lin was holding the cake in his hand, and suddenly met Qiao Mu's squinting eyes, and the meaningful eyes fell on her, making her shiver.
Wow, it's over!
"Sister, you...... Let's talk first, I'll go to the bathroom! ”
Lin Huanhuan almost ran away after speaking.
Qiao Mu's cold eyes flashed with contemplation, looked at her back, and opened his mouth, "She is ......"
Pan Hua smiled, but didn't think deeply, "My assistant, the little girl is more lively, don't you mind." ”
Sky! The eldest lady of the Lin family came to Pan Hua to be a little assistant, does the Lin family know?
……
At six o'clock in the evening, the guests had already walked into the pavilion venue one after another, Qiao Mu stood in the corner of the courtyard, witnessing Song Qingshu taking Pan Hua into the building, and his eyes burst out with a strong interest.
So, he found a corner where no one was, took out his mobile phone, and made a call.
"If you want me to say, this little young master of the Song family, the purpose is not simple!"
On the phone, cold-blooded heard Qiao Mu's teasing tone, and was silent for a few seconds, his tone was cold, "That's why I let you go." ”
Qiao Mu: "......"
Tricked! So that's what happened......
Qiao Mu lit a cigarette, took a big puff, and flicked the cigarette ash, "You asked me to come over just to be your eyeliner?" If you don't feel at ease, why can't you come here? ”
"I have no intersection with the Song family."
Qiao Mu: "......"
The man's cold and deep voice was full of arrogance, and Qiao Mu's blood surged up when he heard it.
"Bring her back safely, the piece of land at the foot of Lake Bermin, and send it to you."
As soon as he heard this, Qiao Mu Coke was broken, "Yes, you are really precious to her, the piece of land at the foot of Bomin Lake, I asked you for three years and you didn't give it, and now for her, you give it to me for nothing!" Brother Leng, it's a shame that you're not the emperor, otherwise the rivers and mountains would have let you play it out! ”
"Doodoo-" The call was hung up.
Qiao Mu cursed secretly, threw the cigarette butt on the ground and snuffed it out with his toes, raised his eyes to look at the starry sky, and couldn't help but sigh again and again, how could there be such an infatuated man in the world! He wouldn't have been able to do it if it were him. In his eyes, women are used to play, and only interests are eternal, so ...... Now all the people who are running for three have not had a serious girlfriend!
They have several brothers, and they would never have imagined in their lives that they would die for a woman in cold blood.
If Pan Hua wasn't the girl he had been looking for for many years, wouldn't what he was doing now be a joke? Will he regret wasting his feelings in vain?
Hey, whatever, I hope ...... She's right!
Qiao Mu pondered for a while, saw that the time was almost up, and was about to enter the pavilion venue, when Yu Guang coldly caught a glimpse of a sneaky figure, his eyes darkened, and after pacing a few times, he stood beside the man, and said with a cold smile: "Who are you looking for?" ”
"Hmm......"
As if seeing a ghost, Lin Huanhuan was so frightened that he stumbled back a few times, looking very embarrassed!
She leaned against the red pillar in the cloister, shrunk her neck, her dark eyes were full of horror, and it took a long time for her to mutter, "Second uncle......"
"You can still recognize me, and you know how to call me second uncle, it seems that you don't have amnesia!"
Lin Huanhuan: "......"
Qiao Mu put one hand in his trouser pocket, stared at the little girl who had just reached her chest in front of her, and squinted dangerously, "Tell me, why do you want to be an assistant next to Pan Hua?" Don't your parents know? ”
"Second uncle, I ......"
"Huanhuan."
At this time, Pan Hua, who had been looking for a long time and couldn't find Lin Huanhuan, happened to come out of the pavilion to look for her.
Seeing the two people talking in the corner, he called out with a sideways look.
"Eh, sister, I'm here!"
As if he had found a savior, Lin Huanhuan waved his hands on tiptoe like a dream, squinted at Qiao Mu's playful look, lowered his voice and said flatteringly: "Second uncle, I'll explain to you later, okay?" For the sake of me being so pitiful and well-behaved, don't tell my parents, or I'll die......"
Qiao Mu: "......"
The words fell, and without waiting for Qiao Mu to reply, Lin Huanhuan slipped away.
Pan Hua looked at the little girl who came very unexpectedly, frowned slightly, saw Qiao Mu appear from the corner in the dark, and caught Lin Huanhuan's panicked look, and asked with some worry: "What's the matter?" ”
Lin Huanhuan handed the gift box to Pan Hua, shaking his head with sweat on his face, "Oh, that...... It's nothing, sister. That gentleman got lost just now, and I'm showing him the way! ”
Sky! Lying without blushing, with a righteous 'helping others' speech, not acting in a movie to win the Oscar, it is really too talented, it shouldn't be!
Qiao Mu: "......" Why are you lost, little cub, wait for you!
……
After a delay of half an hour, at half past six, the birthday feast began.
The whole pavilion is full, there are sixty tables of banquet tables as far as the eye can see, the magnificent hall exudes the taste of ancient charm everywhere, the seat of Pan Hua seems to be deliberately arranged, it falls next to the main table, behind the chair, just like Song Qingshu who sits at the main table.
The master of ceremonies on the birthday banquet stage is Chen Hua, a famous mouth in the circle, whose hosting style is humorous and witty, and he is very good at mobilizing the atmosphere of the scene.
Pan Hua sat at the sub-table, and the square lampstand above her head happened to cast a bright light on her.
Eye-catching and eye-catching.
Not long after, Song Qingshu came to the stage, he stood with a noble and warm temperament, his gestures were elegant and steady, the light was bright and bright, and the light reflected by the lenses covered his penetrating eyes.
"Thank you for coming to the birthday banquet of the grandmother of the Song family, and the sages have come to make the Song Mansion shine brightly......"
Song Qingshu's words are decent and full of self-cultivation, which really responds to the sentence that a humble gentleman is as gentle as jade.
At the birthday banquet, with the famous Chen Hua setting off the atmosphere, the guests laughed endlessly.
The big longevity character is hung on the stage screen, the lighting in the pavilion is soft and elegant, there is no dazzling equivalent, and the programs performed by the guests are mostly gentle and elegant.
Mrs. Song, at this time, was sitting at the head of the main table, full of gorgeous hair but still full of energy, dressed in a red Chinese-style Tang costume, eighty years old, without a withered face, and her cheeks were red and a little kind.
On the stage, the famous Quyi heirs were singing the Peking Opera "Suolin Bag" to congratulate the old lady Song on her birthday, Pan Hua drank a sip of champagne, her thoughts were heavy, she was thinking about whether to rush back to the imperial city tonight, or return tomorrow.
At this time, Song Qingshu, who was sitting behind her, paced to her side, bowed slightly, put one hand on her back, and looked peaceful and gentle, "Grandma is waiting for you, I'll take you over." ”
Hearing the sound, Pan Hua put down the cup. Turning her head to look sideways, she saw the old lady looking at her with a smile across the front of the table.
She nodded and got up with the gift, "Trouble, Teacher Song!" ”
"You're welcome."
Here, Song Qingshu personally introduced Pan Hua to Mrs. Song, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.
A star in the circle, how can he be?
Mrs. Song is not an ordinary old man, after sending the old gentleman to pass away, she turned the tide with a female stream, and firmly rooted the Song family in the troubled times in the turbulent era.
The same grief is in the middle, and also gives Mrs. Song a well-known name, the Iron Lady of Beicheng!
Although she is now old, the old lady is still standing in the world, and the entire Song family has her, and no one dares to make trouble.
Pan Hua and Song Qingshu walked to the main table, and the Song family on the other side saw this scene, and their expressions flashed with different colors.
Take the third child of the Song family as the most! He watched this scene with an evil gaze, and raised the corners of his lips, it is rare, after all these years, he finally waited for Song Qingshu to take action......
"Hello old lady, I am Pan Hua, I am honored to come to your birthday banquet, I wish you happiness and good health in the East China Sea."
Pan Hua stood beside the Taishi chair, handed her the beautifully packaged gift box in her hand, and also said a few words of congratulations on her birthday.
The old lady smiled at the corners of her eyes, and the wrinkles on her cheeks became clearer and deeper.
She took the gift box, her eyes were full of kindness, she took Pan Hua's hand, and said with a full heart: "I have long heard our family Qingshu mention you, but I didn't expect that the real person is more beautiful than on TV." Girl, I have a heart, my old bones, I will let you run, are you not tired? ”
I have to say that Mrs. Song's thoughtful words sound heartwarming.
Her fingertips gently rubbed the back of Pan Hua's hand, her unclouded eyes were sharp and clear, and a smile fell on Pan Hua, like an elder who loves her juniors.
"The old lady is serious, I am also honored to be able to come to your birthday banquet."
Mrs. Song looked at Pan Hua, satisfied and appreciative of her elegant cheongsam, and then she looked at Song Qingshu on the side and said, "This girl, her mouth is so sweet, Qingshu, treat her well for grandma, don't slack off!" ”
"Grandma rest assured." Song Qingshu was on the side, politely agreeing.
