Time drifted forward like flowing water, and in the past few days, Mo Jingjing turned out the textbooks of the first and second years of high school, and began to review from the beginning seriously.

It's been thirteen years since I graduated from high school and left the campus, and most of the knowledge I learned in middle school has already been returned to the teacher. Therefore, Mo Jingjing can be 120,000 points of spirit, and ask Du Niang if she doesn't understand, at this time, she especially admires the inventor of Du Niang, and it seems that no matter what problem it can always solve for you.

The days when there is something to do always fly by, and the time is the day to attend the banquet in a flash. On this day, Mo Jingjing was dressed up carefully by Mo's mother in a floral dress, and then followed her parents out.

It is said that the banquet was held in a private villa in the suburbs. After driving for nearly two hours, she arrived at the foot of a mountain, and the car raced all the way up the mountain, Mo Jingjing stared at the fiery red azaleas on the side of the road that had been driving brilliantly all the way up the mountain, and listened absentmindedly to Mo's mother to introduce the history of the villa's owner.

According to Mo's mother, this big man who can still have such a hill as a private garden villa in the case of every inch of land in City C is surnamed Xiao.

The ancestors began to make a fortune from tea during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and after several developments, various businesses have been stained, and after several dynasties, they are still standing.

The luck of the Xiao family always seems to be particularly good, and each generation has an outstanding family member who can always make the right choice when the family is in danger. Even in the most turbulent and crumbling years of the country, they chose the right side and stood on the right team, so that the Xiao family not only developed economically after the reform and opening up, but also occupied a place in the officialdom, which can be said to be rich and powerful.

The eldest daughter is married at 29 this year, and she has been working in the family business for several years with her husband, who is now the backbone of the company. The youngest son is only eighteen this year, still studying, is Xiao Xie's old son, Mrs. Xiao was nearly forty years old to give birth to this son, so the couple is very doting on the young son, this banquet is held for him, because today is his eighteenth birthday.

When they arrived at the gate of the villa, as soon as it was dark, the family of three got out of the car and came to the villa through the wide courtyard.

Mo Jingjing doesn't understand architecture, but she just feels that the construction of this villa is very special. The general architecture is all Chinese, and if it is Western, it is purely Western, and if the two are not mixed well, it will only make people feel nondescript and become a joke. But this villa does not know that it comes from the hand of that famous artist, and it perfectly integrates the two completely different architectural styles of China and the West, without any sense of disobedience, and at a glance it will only make people feel very exquisite and comfortable, but it is solemn and atmospheric.

After watching for a while, Mo Jingjing followed her parents to the villa, and her parents greeted the visitors at the door for a while, listening to the polite words of the two sides, and knew that the handsome man in his thirties in front of him was Zhang Bin, the son-in-law of the Xiao family.

After the greetings, the family entered the luxuriously decorated but restrained banquet hall, Mo Jingjing was greeted by her parents with a decent smile and friends she knew on the field, and listened to her parents introduce the young master of this daughter.

One after another, more and more people came to the banquet. Just when Mo Jingjing listened to the praise of others, whether sincere or false, and the smile on her face was so stiff that she couldn't hang it anymore, Xiao Xie, the master of the Xiao family, finally walked down from the upstairs with his wife.

Mo Jingjing was full of curiosity about the big people who dared to make the guests with heads and faces wait for a long time, but no one showed dissatisfaction.

Following everyone's gaze, I saw that on the stairs in the middle of the hall, Xiao Xie and his wife, who were nearly sixty years old but looked to be in their early forties because of good maintenance, stood side by side on the top of the stairs and faced everyone solemnly.

Although she was surprised that the two of them looked so old, what surprised Mo Jingjing even more was that next to Xiao Xie, Mrs. Xiao, who was wearing a well-tailored ink-colored cheongsam and a red peony embroidered on the cheongsam, looked dignified and noble, but she was a blonde foreign friend. Although transnational marriages are very common in these years, families like the Xiao family, which have been passed down for hundreds of years, are generally more conservative and xenophobic, and transnational marriages like this are really rare.

Xiao Xie stood on the stairs and made a speech to everyone, nothing more than to thank everyone for coming in their busy schedules, and looking forward to taking more care of their young children in the future.

It's just that Xiao Xie said this plainly with an expressionless voice without emotion, Mo Jingjing really admired it. But even so, there are still many people who enthusiastically cater to it, which makes Mo Jingjing once again deeply aware of the influence of the Xiao family in C City.

After everyone turned over the entertainment, the atmosphere became warm, and even if the protagonist of today's banquet, Young Master Xiao, did not appear, no one was interested in asking questions. The parents were busy talking to the Xiao family, and the young people were free, and they got together in twos and threes to communicate.

Mo Jingjing was really not interested in chatting with these teenage young people about how such and such a star is, how about that film and television drama, etc., so she had to take a glass of juice and stand in the corner and look around boredly.

Occasionally, I heard someone boast about the design of the villa with Mrs. Xiao, and Mrs. Xiao proudly replied in standard Mandarin that it was designed by her youngest son five years ago, and they thought it was beautiful, so they demolished the original house and rebuilt the current one.

Mo Jingjing pouted, she is really rich and capricious! However, I admire Young Master Xiao Mo Jingjing, who was only thirteen years old five years ago and was able to design such an excellent building, what a genius! It's a pity that I didn't have a chance to see the situation today, Mo Jingjing couldn't help but smile lightly when she thought about it.

The hall was very lively, Mo Jingjing stood in the corner and looked at the bustling crowd but felt a little bored, her feet that had not worn high heels for a long time were also protesting with herself, and the places where people could sit were basically empty, and her parents were still wedged with friends, and it seemed that she would not think of herself for a while.

Mo Jingjing thought about it for a second, and decisively sneaked out of the hall and walked towards the courtyard. Sitting on the fountain pool steps of the artificial rockery in the courtyard, Mo Jingjing exhaled lightly, the air on the mountain is good, and you can see the stars when you raise your eyes.

took off the high heels on his feet, lifted one foot and put it on his knee and wanted to rub it, but he felt that the soles of his feet were a little wet, it seemed that the feet of this body would sweat in summer, and it was the same as his own, Mo Jingjing vomited helplessly.

Turning her head to look at the cool fountain water behind her buttocks, Mo Jingjing's eyes rolled, and she couldn't help but look around, there was no one around, and no one in the hall would come out if she wanted to.

After the survey, Mo Jingjing turned around and put her feet into the water and rubbed them a few times, then quickly retracted like a thief and turned around and sat upright, shaking her feet leisurely as if nothing had happened.

At this time! A clear female voice came from behind her: "Mo Jingjing, it's really you!" I thought I was wrong! ”

For some reason, Mo Jingjing, who was obviously quite pleasant, heard something bad from it.

Turning his head to look, he saw a very handsome girl standing behind her with a glass of juice in her hand, staring at Mo Jingjing not far away.

"Something?" It seems that she knows the original owner, Mo Jingjing asked softly and quietly.

"Of course there is something, Mo Jingjing, you are really thick-skinned, you are embarrassed to come out to meet someone like that, do you think that Yang Xu will come today so you rushed to pester him, but unfortunately let you down, Yang Xu has not come back abroad yet! "The girl mocked with undisguised disgust.

Yang Xu? Entangled? This is still a lot of information, Mo Jingjing raised her eyebrows and didn't want to pay attention to these, let alone worry about the girl. Bowing his head and putting on his shoes, he stood up and walked past the girl to go back to the hall.

I didn't want the girl to be annoyed by her attitude, so I grabbed Mo Jingjing, who was walking by, and shouted at her: "Mo Jingjing, you murderer, what are you dragging, if it weren't for your parents having a few stinky money to help you settle things, you would have to go through the prison a long time ago, you confessed that you were refused to steal your father's wine, and you also stole your father's car and drove on the road without a license and killed someone." Let Yang Xu blame yourself for your guilt, and have the face to entangle Yang Xu, it's really shameless! ”

Mo Jingjing just has a good culture, it is impossible to be indifferent to be scolded by someone pointing at her nose like this, breaking away from the wrist that was held, Mo Jingjing said calmly: "So what, I have already paid the corresponding price for doing something wrong, and I will do my best to make up for it in the future, I don't want to escape, who hasn't been young and frivolous." As for Yang Xu, I'm at least brave, what about you? will only bark at me, an imaginary enemy, like a lost dog, and peep at him in a dark corner, but you don't even have the courage to confess to him, you are not one of his, and what qualifications do you have to hold grievances for him here. ”

Although Mo Jingjing is not clear about the specific matter, it can be inferred that the girl likes Yang Xu just from the girl's words, and she doesn't dare to confess, just keep paying attention to him to know Yang Xu's guilt and self-blame for the original owner, otherwise it won't be a mockery but a show-off, and if the confession is rejected, she won't be in the mood to pay attention to herself.

"You! How dare you call me a dog! Yes! The girl was about to be mad, and the juice in her hand was about to be splashed on Mo Jingjing's face subconsciously.

Mo Jingjing was alert when she raised her arms, and as soon as she grabbed her raised wrist and pushed it hard, she just wanted to push her away so that she could get out, but she didn't think that she was so light and took a few steps back, and her heels were against the steps of the fountain pool, and her body fell backwards without maintaining balance, "plop," and fell into the pool water where Mo Jingjing had just washed her feet.

Mo Jingjing was stunned for a moment, looked at the girl who was sitting in the water in a stupid embarrassment, secretly said that it was not good, and quickly slipped away before the girl came back to her senses.

Mo Jingjing, who was running fast, didn't know that there were two teenagers at the top of the villa who had a full view of this scene.
