Chapter 222: Night Banquet (1st Update)
If Qiao Xiaoyan was in the car at the moment, Su Xiaoran would definitely be desperate to go back, but ...... The other party is a person who he has no reason to hate and offend.
Charlene's strength lies in the fact that she doesn't seem to offend anyone, she is thorough and polite, you can't find any fault with her, but it is precisely because of this that Su Xiaoran feels that she is extremely annoying.
Feign.
Su Xiaoran pursed her lips, lowered her head and simply played with her mobile phone. In the front row, Xia Lin was still chatting with Chenxi excitedly, most of them were interesting stories about Qiao Xiaoyan's past, and when she talked about funny things, she would also match it with cheerful laughter, which was simply a joy.
As for Chenxi, there are more echoes, Xia Lin said a word, and he agreed, coaxing Xia Lin happily along the way, but Su Xiaoran climbed three black lines on his face in a row.
Finally got to the hotel, the two cars stopped together, and when she saw Lia and Wang Wei coming out of the car in front of her, Su Xiaoran was even more unhappy.
"You guys go in first, I'll park the car." Chen Xi said such a thing at this time, Xia Lin looked at Su Xiaoran with a smile, and had the meaning of anti-guest: "Let's go in first, ignore him!" β
β¦β¦
A few people entered the pre-booked box, Su Xiaoran arranged seats for them, sat and watched the waiter make tea, and filled them one by one, but Chenxi still didn't come in.
If you don't speak again, you're snubbing the guests.
"CHUCK AND LUCY ARE HERE THIS TIME...... What do you want to investigate? Su Xiaoran forced herself to smile politely.
Charlene looked at the two foreigners who were looking at her in confusion, and returned: "You have to ask them yourself, as soon as you hear that I am coming, you want to come and have a look, you know, after all, I will work here in the future, and it is normal for them to care." β
"Oh." Su Xiaoran nodded thoughtfully, and then changed to English: "So, what do you guys like?learn about our company's history?or...... just want to be sure what guys LIN XIA will work together?β
βI think we just need a vocation,this city is so beautiful an I like it.β
CHUCK HAPPILY SIPPED HIS TEA AND LOOKED LIKE HE WAS ENJOYING THE JOURNEY. LUCY DIDN'T SPEAK THE WHOLE TIME, SMILING, VERY POLITE, AND LOOKED LIKE HE WAS REJECTING PEOPLE THOUSANDS OF MILES AWAY.
Su Xiaoran's sentence that she finally held back was ended, so she looked at Xia Lin and motioned for her to drink more tea.
The door opened, and the savior Chenxi finally came, Su Xiaoran happily moved the seat next to her and motioned for Chenxi to sit down, but what Xia Lin said next made her completely stunned.
Charlene said that the position was reserved for Qiao Xiaoyan.
"Isn't Xiaoyan recuperating in the hospital?" Su Xiaoran was surprised.
"I also advised her not to come, but she insisted on picking me up and washing the dust...... Alas! Chenxi, you really take care of her in the future, she doesn't listen to what others say, she just listens to you! Charlene made a distressed look, Lia's eyes were sharp, and she also made up a sentence: "Yes, my cousin just likes to be strong, this time she was injured, obviously very serious, but she still thinks about coming back to work all day long, I'm really worried about her." β
"Xiao Yan has always understood the importance of things, and she will take care of herself." Chen Xi stood and said a word, and sat down next to Su Xiaoran without hesitation.
Su Xiaoran's hanging heart finally calmed down for a while, fortunately, Chenxi was willing to stand on the same front with him, otherwise wouldn't it be very faceless?
"Charlene, Xiaoyan is coming, is someone going to pick it up? She can't walk now, how can she get here? Su Xiaoran also made a generous and decent appearance and cared about the other party. Charlene had a shallow smile on her face, and only said that she would have a way.
The dinner began, the meal was served, and except for the two foreign guests who felt strange, everyone else was thinking about their own thoughts in different ways.
Chenxi stood up first, raised his wine glass, said a few words of welcome in English, everyone drank together, sat down, and began to greet each other.
Wang Wei is relatively honest, it should be because Chen Xi is there, he only toasted Xia Lin and the foreigners, and then sat obediently and didn't speak, when someone spoke, he nodded and smiled, as if he was low-key.
Lia didn't feel easy, took advantage of the drinking to say a few more words to Chenxi, and toasted a few glasses of wine after a few rounds, not forgetting to make her eyes look when she spoke, the gentle Qiubo sent one after another, and even Su Xiaoran was embarrassed to look at it, not to mention the cold Chenxi?
"CHENXI, LET'S TALK ABOUT IT, IF YOU WELCOME ME, I WILL STAY AND RETREAT WITH EVERYONE, IF NO ONE WELCOMES ME, I WILL GO BACK WITH CHUCK AND THEM TOMORROW, ANYWAY, IT WILL BE A TRIP."
Charlene smiled and threw the problem to Chenxi.
Of course, Su Xiaoran knew that whether to stay or not, in fact, the decision was not in Chenxi, Xia Lin just wanted to find a step down through his mouth.
"You are so good, I naturally can't ask for it, I'm afraid that I won't be able to keep your big Buddha in this temple!"
"If you say that, I'll assume that you don't welcome me. Xiaoran, Chenxi is becoming more and more impersonal now, you have to take care of him, otherwise even you will be abandoned one day, which is not good! β
Xia Lin spoke quite presumptuous and direct, which is exactly what Su Xiaoran's taste is, if you are direct, I will only be more direct than you.
"If he doesn't want it, forget it, there is such a thing as affection, if he doesn't like it, it's useless for you to die."
After Su Xiaoran finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Chenxi, Chenxi only thought they were joking, eating by themselves, smiling as politely as possible, but thinking in his heart that this woman was amazing, there was a battle of lips and tongues every day, which was terrifying!
"Xiaoran is funny when she speaks, no wonder Chenxi likes it like a treasure." Charlene said lightly, and also buried her head in a quiet meal. Lia got up and left under the pretext of going out, saying that there was something going out, and Su Xiaoran knew that it must be Qiao Xiaoyan who came.
It's just that...... Come and come, is it necessary to be mysterious?
"Would you like to go out and greet you?" I guess it's probably Xiaoyan coming. Su Xiaoran deliberately reminded, but Xia Lin stopped Chenxi: "Let her come in by herself, the disobedient person is injured and wants to run over!" β
When Chenxi sat down, the door of the box opened, and several people looked back, only to see Qiao Xiaoyan coming in in a wheelchair, and behind him, Xiang'er was holding a wheelchair, and ...... And also......
Little dreams?
The chopsticks in Su Xiaoran's hand immediately fell to the ground, and Xiaomeng ...... Isn't it already gone?
Chenxi's surprise was no less than Su Xiaoran's, when he handed over Xiaomeng to Hua Mu that day, he clearly said that he would not get along with each other in this life, and they would be fine.
How now.
"I'm sorry, I'm late." Qiao Xiaoyan's legs and feet were inconvenient, but she didn't delay her mouth, and her eyes never took her eyes off Chenxi when she spoke.
Xiaomeng has been standing at the door, not knowing whether he doesn't want to come in or doesn't dare to come in.
"What are you doing here?" Chenxi's tone was very cold, such indifference frightened the two foreign guests present, and the two of them stopped their chopsticks one after another, wondering why the joyful atmosphere of the dinner suddenly became nervous?
"Chenxi! Little Dream is leaving, I want to see you for the last time, can't I? Qiao Xiaoyan's tone was full of reproach, and then, she turned to Su Xiaoran again: "Xiaoran, I know you will blame me, but I have to do this, Xiaomeng is so pitiful, you can fulfill her wish and let her take a look at Chenxi again, right?" Are you really ruthless to let two people who once loved each other not get along with each other? β
It seems to have become my own fault.
Su Xiaoran was stunned, she didn't care much about what Qiao Xiaoyan said, to her, Qiao Xiaoyan was an inconsequential passerby. However, Xiaomeng is different, she is not only the person Chenxi once loved the most, but also her Su Xiaoran's sister.
"Welcome."
Su Xiaoran whispered, then turned around and sat down.
It was difficult for Chenxi to refuse such a scene, so he didn't say anything more and sat down. Xiaomeng was pulled in by Lia, "My cousin often mentions that Sister Xiaomeng is good, saying that she is not only beautiful, but also full of talent. β
βLiaοΌ What nonsense! Qiao Xiaoyan blamed, and Lia obediently closed her mouth.
Xiaomeng sat between Qiao Xiaoyan and Lia, never spoke, and his face was very ugly. To be honest, she made Su Xiaoran feel very uncomfortable like this.
Xia Lin eased the atmosphere: "I've heard Xiao Yan mention you a long time ago, and when I saw you today, I really have an extraordinary temperament, Xiao Meng, it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Xia Lin, Xiao Yan's friend." β
"I don't have anything good, but it's just a medicine jar." Xiao Meng squeezed out a wry smile, raised the teacup in front of him and drank a cup with tea instead of wine.
After speaking, she looked at Chenxi with resentment in her eyes, the complicated feelings in her eyes could not be pretended, at this moment, Su Xiaoran believed that Xiaomeng really loved Chenxi, obviously, she could not even have self-esteem in front of him.
Since Xiaomeng came in, Chen Xi didn't even bother to say polite words, his eyes were on the table, and his face was ugly.
Qiao Xiaoyan didn't think so, he was still proud that he could come here today, so he asked Xia Lin for credit: "I came to see you against all odds, how about it, the sincerity is enough, right?" Can you promise me to stay and not leave? β
"I can't say this alone, I have to see what kind of attitude Chairman Chen has. I don't think he was happy about that! β
"Chenxi, Charlene is a well-known analyst in the industry, and our company needs such talents." Qiao Xiaoyan was serious, Chen Xi finally raised his head and said something ambiguous: "Charlene is indeed a rare talent, but it is hard to find." β
