Tomorrow is Christmas, and tonight, the Zhao family villa held an extravagant Christmas Eve Praty, inviting all celebrities.

For these people living in the upper class, it is very common for one family to hold a party today and another party tomorrow, some people regard it as a pastime, and some people come to talk about business and political affairs on such occasions.

In short, everyone came to participate with a different purpose.

And tonight's party, for the Zhao family, has only one purpose, which is to announce the upcoming engagement of Zhao Mingze and Lan Lan.

Of course, Zhao Mingze didn't know all this, he was leisurely walking around the pool at this time, the servants had already prepared all the food and drink, and he casually pinched a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.

It's boring.

Zhao Mingze observed these people coming and going, with the same hypocritical smile on his face, drinking red wine when he had nothing to do, talking about some gossip from wealthy families or the entertainment industry, and laughing as a joke on the spot, all of which were non-nutritious topics.

Zhao Mingze hates to participate in this kind of party, usually he will push it off on the grounds of overtime, he planned to go to He Mu to play today, but his father personally told him to come back after work, how dare he disobey.

Leaning on the corner of the table in a chic manner, Zhao Mingze casually sipped the red wine in his hand, and observing these all kinds of people became a way for him to enjoy himself.

Seeing that a woman deliberately sprinkled red wine on another woman, and pretended to apologize unintentionally, Zhao Mingze hooked the corners of his lips and watched this good show with relish, but he didn't notice that two people around him were approaching.

"Young Master Zhao." It wasn't until a middle-aged woman's voice sounded in his ears that Zhao Mingze blinked and turned his head.

In front of him, a well-dressed middle-aged woman wearing a sable sweater and a noble temperament smiled at him charitentially, her face looked like she was in her forties, but her figure was like a twenty-eight girl, with graceful curves.

Such a woman is unforgettable, Zhao Mingze has seen it once and wrote it down, she is Min Fengshu, the wife of Lan Junfeng, chairman of Shenghua Group, but a young woman standing next to her, Zhao Mingze has never seen it.

"Mrs. Lan, I didn't expect you to come here today, it's really brilliant." Zhao Mingze said flattering words politely, he had long been accustomed to pretending to be polite in front of people.

Min Fengshu looked Zhao Mingze up and down, her eyes became more and more crooked the more she smiled, and her eyes were the same as her mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, which made Zhao Mingze a little uncomfortable.

"I have long heard that Young Master Zhao is young and promising, and he was promoted to the chief prosecutor of customs at a young age.

The same flattery, Zhao Mingze's ears were almost calloused when he heard it, he was not interested in doing these superficial efforts, he just wanted to send these two people away quickly.

"Mrs. Lan is a prize." Zhao Mingze took a sip of wine and looked into the distance.

Normally, in this case, the other party will walk away with interest, but Min Fengshu not only did not leave, but pushed the woman next to her in front of Zhao Mingze.

"Young Master Zhao, let me introduce, this is my daughter, Lan Lan."

Zhao Mingze glanced at the young woman, the woman was not particularly beautiful, but when she smiled, her face was decorated with a pear vortex, she was wearing a water-green dress, a pure white mink shoulder, her hairstyle was quite exquisite, and she was carrying the latest Hermes handbag in both hands, cramped in front of hermes, quiet and a little shy.

"Hello." The corners of Zhao Mingze's mouth provoked a fascinating curve, and his inadvertent expression made Lan Lan's cheeks flush instantly, and his head lowered even deeper.

"You...... Hello. ”

It's quite innocent. However, Zhao Mingze doesn't like innocence.

"Heck, there must be a lot of talk among you young people, so I won't get involved. Xiao Lan, have a good chat with Young Master Zhao. Min Fengshu said meaningfully to Lan Lan, and regardless of Zhao Mingze's reaction, she turned around and left.

This made Zhao Mingze a little embarrassed.

He really won't deal with this kind of wealthy daughter who is shy with his head down and doesn't have any interest, what if he says the wrong thing and hurts people's fragile hearts?

was struggling, and saw Zhao Kexin walking out of the house.

"Eh, Kexin!" Zhao Mingze hurriedly went up and grabbed Zhao Kexin, "Did my father call me something?" ”

"Huh?" Zhao Kexin looked confused.

"I knew he called me, I'll go over now." As he spoke, Zhao Mingze walked towards the house, and then turned his head to look at Lan Lan as if he realized something, "Miss Lan, I'm sorry, I have something to do now, why don't you ...... Playing on your own? ”

Lan Lan pursed her lips, her expression was slightly disappointed, and she said in a faint voice like the wings of mosquitoes and flies, "Go ahead, I'm fine." ”

Seeing Lan Lan turn around and leave, Zhao Mingze's talent breathed a sigh of relief, but Zhao Kexin stood aside with his hands on his chest, looked at Lan Lan, and then looked at Zhao Mingze.

"Brother, you're really a dramatist." Zhao Kexin sneered.

Zhao Mingze shrugged helplessly, "Okay, don't tease me." I'm telling you, I really can't stand this place, what is Dad doing now? I said hi to him. ”

"Dad and Yi Du are talking about business in the living room, don't go over and make trouble!"

"It's still business...... It's your marriage. Zhao Mingze smiled evilly.

"Anyway, don't go in!" Zhao Kexin stood in front of Zhao Mingze, just in the direction of Lan Lan's departure, her red lips curled slightly, "By the way, brother, how far have you and Miss Lan developed?" ”

Zhao Mingze didn't quite understand, "What do I have to do with her?" ”

"She is the future wife of our parents to you, what do you say is your relationship?" Zhao Kexin paused for a moment, tilted his head to look at Zhao Mingze, "Brother, you won't ...... I don't know. ”

Zhao Mingze was completely stunned, first shocked, and then his face was full of anger.

"When?" His voice sank.

"Just two days ago, my mother went to the Lan family to meet Miss Lan, and she was quite satisfied, so she decided on your marriage. I heard that your engagement will be announced tonight! ”

Zhao Mingze felt unreasonable, he exhaled and sneered, "I didn't agree to my marriage, and I didn't even see the woman, so they decided on their own?!" ”

"Brother, be quiet!"

"What's wrong with my loud voice?! It's the 21st century, not the old society! I usually put up with the rules that make me follow the rules, but now my own daughter-in-law, I don't even have a chance to choose! What age is this, and they still want to have an arranged marriage?! The more Zhao Mingze spoke, the more excited he became, "I'll go to my dad now to make it clear, this marriage, I won't get married!" ”

As he spoke, Zhao Mingze rushed inside, and Zhao Kexin grabbed his arm with all his might, "Brother, calm down!" If you go in now, you will only anger Dad, Dad is angry, and it is possible for someone to lock you up for ten days and half a month, haven't you already suffered this kind of loss before, do you want to repeat the mistakes of the past?! ”

These words calmed down Zhao Mingze, he still remembered that when he was a child, he was rebellious and disobedient, and he worked against Zhao Yihua, but he was punished and confined for a month, and people who have not experienced the taste of panic, arc, and anxiety will not understand that that time caused him a great psychological shadow, and after that, he never refuted Zhao Yihua, and pretended to be obedient and decent in front of Zhao Yihua.

Gradually, he also got used to this disguise.

However, he didn't expect that pretending to be a sensible and obedient son in front of Zhao Yihua for a long time would end up like this, Zhao Yihua never considered his feelings, as if he was a puppet with a thread, allowing Zhao Yihua to go left and right, without independent opinions and thoughts at all.

Zhao Mingze was about to collapse in a frenzy, the sleeping lion in his heart seemed to have awakened, and let out a dull howl, how much he wanted to break out of this shackle and get a free life!

But Zhao Kexin reminded him right, if he is confined, won't he have even more chance to resist?

Zhao Mingze put his hand against his mouth, his two eyebrows were almost frowning together, he took a deep breath, shook off Zhao Kexin's hand, turned around and walked outside.

"Brother, where are you going?"

"Leave me alone!" Zhao Mingze roared irritably, and then disappeared into the crowd.

……

In the evening, He Muwo watched TV on the bank of the river, Bai Jiangfeng was still in a meeting in the company, I don't know when it will end, and I can have a comfortable Christmas Eve alone.

He Mu transferred a few stations, and turned off the TV when he found that there was nothing to see, and he had been with Bai Jiangfeng for the past two days, and he didn't have much opportunity to find Zhao Mingze to explore the situation at the customs, should you take advantage of this time to ask him out to talk?

Just thinking about it, He Mu's mobile phone rang loudly, and when he picked it up, he actually said that Cao Cao Cao was here, and it was Zhao Mingze who called.

She hurriedly picked it up, "Hey, Mr. Zhao." ”

"Xiao Mumu, are you free tonight? Take me to a fun place again. Zhao Mingze's voice was as cynical as ever.

But his tone was a little bleak.

"That I ......"

He Mu actually wanted to agree, but Zhao Mingze suddenly interrupted her.

"As long as you come to see me, I will tell you about Jiang Yidu's injury in Vietnam, how about it?"

He Mu heard it, this dare is good! Anyway, she happened to have something to do with Zhao Mingze, but she didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain, killing two birds with one stone.

"Where are you?"

"On top of your head."

"Huh? No, I don't. He Mu subconsciously looked up and saw only luxurious chandeliers.

Zhao Mingze smiled, "I'm on the rooftop of the Jiangshui Garden. I'll wait for you. ”

Without waiting for He Mu to speak, the other party hung up.

Homu Khan...... Why did he run to the shore of the river, what the hell did he do?

But she didn't have time to think about it, so she quickly got up and combed it, put on a light gray tweed coat, a pure white knitted sweater, and light coffee-colored over-the-knee boots matched just right, He Mu faced the mirror, nodded with satisfaction, and went out.

It was the first time she had come to the rooftop on the shore of the river, and when she opened the door, a cold wind blew in her face, making He Mu shrink unconsciously.

Through the doorway, He Mu looked around for this Zhao Mingze's figure.

And when she saw the lonely back in the moonlight, He Mu's heart suddenly rose to her throat!

Zhao Mingze sat on the edge of the rooftop, and in front of him was the dazzling night view of S City, but his feet were suspended in the air, and he would fall down if he was not careful!

"Mr. Zhao!" He Mu exclaimed.

Zhao Mingze's body shook.
