Chapter 47: I'm More Optimistic About You
The woman's expression was calm, and she gently tucked the broken hair from her face behind her ears: "Your father has been in a bad state during this time, and I don't want you to leave regrets." β
A paragraph, high-sounding.
The corners of He Sibai's lips curled up when he heard this, and he didn't care about politeness, and laughed bluntly and sarcastically.
He took a few steps towards He Mu, his eyes were still fixed on He Mu, and a pungent and choking smoke came out from the corner of his raised lips:
"What regrets? Regret never met? β
After staying in a high-ranking mansion for a long time, even disgust can be shown quietly.
Although He Mu hated the choking smell of smoke, she didn't stop it. He just gracefully took off the handkerchief pinned to the placket, tucked his nose, and by the way covered the corners of his mouth that drooped down and was very displeased.
"In the past, because of He Fanglin, I didn't dare to see you in private."
He Mu paused, and then asked, "But I recently heard that He Fanglin is missing?" Do you have a place to stay during this time? β
He Sibai's tone was light: "Don't bother you." I'm doing well alone. β
It's really good, he finally has no shackles of family affection.
However, what He Sibai didn't expect was that his mother, whom he hadn't seen for many years, unexpectedly showed him warmth.
He Mu said: "You are out alone, I have never been at ease. When I tell your dad, you'd better stay at home. Alas...... Your eldest brother is still in the Las Vegas casino during this time, and you are helping to do your filial piety. β
Fang's family is the child of Chairman Fang and his deceased ex-wife. has always been known as the prince of Yinghua Entertainment.
It's a pity that this prince is not as resourceful and decisive as his father, only has the bad habits of the second ancestor, spending all day drinking, inviting cats and dogs.
He Sibai also watched the news that he was detained for drunk driving late at night.
He Sibai frowned: "He's not coming back?" β
He Mu smiled: "He can't come back." β
He Sibai was silent for a moment. This reason sounds a bit bizarre.
The father is seriously ill, and no matter how unadjusted his own son is, he knows that he should come back to visit. Besides, Fang Jiaquan and his wealth are huge, if it is because of flight problems, he can send a special plane to Las Vegas to pick up the equation and come back.
Unless......
Hes's white eyes darkened.
It was the equation that he couldn't come back at all, and he was trapped in Las Vegas.
Seeing He Sibai silently thoughtfully, a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the face of He Mu's indistinguishable beauty, and she took the lead in turning around: "Let's go, your father is waiting for us." β
He Sibai walked into the ward, and at first glance, he did not see his stepfather's true face.
A crowd gathered around his stepfather's hospital bed, each with the same worry on their faces.
A capable man is reporting to work: "Yinghua Entertainment's annual meeting was successfully held, and there are several actors...... On my behalf, I would like to greet Chairman Fang, you are in good health. β
The man reported the names of several actors, all of whom are well-known old drama bones and small fresh meat on the screen, and they are also the pillars of Yinghua Entertainment.
After the man finished his report and bent over, He Sibai, who was standing outside the crowd, finally saw his stepfather, who is also said to be the chairman of Yinghua Entertainment-
Fang Qi on the hospital bed leaned on the pillow, his face was sallow, his eyes were cloudy, but his temperament was still steady, and the momentum of the king of the business field had not diminished at all.
Fang Qi bowed his head slightly after hearing this, and waved his hand to signal the secretary to leave.
The secretary left respectfully, closed the door, and left a room full of Fang family relatives.
He Mu gestured to He Sibai to wait in place for a while, then turned around alone and walked through the crowd and walked to Fang Qi's bedside.
She bent down to tuck the corners of the quilt for Fang Qi, and whispered something in Fang Qi's ear.
Fang Qi nodded slightly and coughed: "Si Bai is here?" Come here. β
Everyone looked behind them, with different expressions, surprised, dazed, and disdainful......
The only thing that is the same is the contempt and indifference that they can't hide in their eyes.
He Sibai walked through these piercing gazes. Walked to Fang Qi's side, bent down slightly, and greeted him with a humble or arrogant attitude: "Hello uncle." β
Fang Qi stretched out his hand, folded it on He Sibai's hand, and patted it gently.
"I haven't had a chance to meet you, so I blame my uncle for not being polite. Listen to your mom, you just started college? β
"Yes. Studied economics at Jiang University. β
"It's a young man. Economics is the trump card major of Jiangcheng University. The executive general manager of our company is an economics graduate from Jiangcheng University, so he should be regarded as your senior. Fang Qi nodded, still holding He Sibai's hand, but his eyes drooped, but he looked at the round and red apple in He Mu's hand.
The room fell silent, and everyone's eyes followed Fang Qi's gaze.
Mother He was calm and calm from beginning to end, and her peeling technique was skillful, and the apple peel was peeled round and round, hanging down long and long, and it was not broken at all.
Fang Qi watched Mother He finish peeling a whole apple, and spoke slowly again: "One family, don't talk about two families." Your eldest brother knows how to play around...... I don't have time to spend time with me, an old man. If you have time after class, come and stay with me. β
In a word, he recognized the status of Hesbai.
Everyone was stunned. The people present were all members of the Fang family who were above the top on weekdays, and the directors of various subsidiaries and subsidiaries, but as soon as these words came out, the eyes that looked at He Sibai were a little more afraid.
No one expected that this young man with exquisite appearance and pale and depressed temperament would be a big man who has been circulating in the upper circles of Jiangcheng for more than ten years, but he has only heard of his name - the wife of the chairman of Yinghua Entertainment and the son of her ex-husband.
Now the Fang family is right, and the second young master of the Fang family is in a high-ranking position.
Fang Qi and He Sibai chatted for a while, their expressions becoming more and more tired.
He Sibai said goodbye in a playful manner, and the other people in the ward also followed behind He Sibai with interest, and turned away respectfully.
Everyone's attitude changed in an instant. Out of the ward, everyone chatted with Hose Bai enthusiastically, used all the praises, and made an appointment to see each other next time in the midst of temptation.
He Sibai's smile was still cold, and he casually greeted these people while walking. Handle everyone away, just walk to the flower bed in the courtyard.
After coping with it for a long time, I was finally able to relax at this moment. He Sibai slowly protruded a breath of turbidity, walked over with the gloomy emotion hidden in his eyes, and sat down.
As soon as he pulled out the cigarette case from his coat pocket, a young man in a dark blue shirt suddenly sat down beside him.
The flower beds are so wide that no one would want to sit down next to a stranger so closely.
He Sibai raised his eyes and looked over, his expression full of speculation. The man calmly hooked his thin lips, his attitude was familiar, but his Mandarin was very jerky: "Er Shao, borrow a fire." β
He Sibai didn't respond, but flexibly flipped the lighter in his hand in a different direction and handed it to the man: "Just call me He Sibai." β
"Don't like the title of Ershao? Actually, I don't like it either, but your brother prefers us to call him less. The young man threw off the slide cover of the lighter, and spit out a puff of cigarette after a while, "Then let's call our names between us, my name is Fang Kaiyan, you can also call me William, I just came back from university in England." β
He Sibai nodded slightly: "William." β
The night was dark, and everyone in the hospital was in a hurry. But no matter how hurried pedestrians passed by, their eyes fell on these two outstanding-looking men, intentionally or unintentionally.
"Wow, you don't know, when I first saw you just now, I was amazed, you have completely inherited Mrs. He's excellent genes! You are so handsome, you really haven't considered entering the entertainment industry? William asked with an exaggerated expression.
He Sibai's face was expressionless: "Thank you, no." β
"You're so cold." William shrugged, "We'll have plenty of opportunities to meet in the future, though." Say, next week. β
He Sibai frowned: "Why?" β
"It's my engagement," said William, not thinking only of something, rolling his brown eyes and smiling, "the family has arranged for me a beautiful young lady to be my fiancΓ©eβeven though we have only met a few times, of course, it doesn't matter. The important thing is that her proud figure makes me 'loveatfirstsight'. β
Seeing that He Sibai was still not interested, William teased with some evil taste: "Remember to come, you can still meet your brother." He promised me to come. β
He Sibai: "Oh. β
"Don't you want to meet your brother?" William asked.
He Sibai laughed and didn't agree: "There will be a chance in the future." β
"It's boring." William sighed and dragged out his voice again, "Don't wait for later, just this time." Okay? Okay? β
William's broken Mandarin sounded like torture, and He Sibai didn't want to be pestered anymore, so he could only respond helplessly: "Okay, if I have time, I will go." β
"Then it's settled." William snapped his fingers happily, "Then let's add a WeChat, shall we?" β
He Sibai took out his mobile phone and opened the lock screen, only to see Shen Qingzhao's message.
His throat rolled, and he quickly replied - Okay, I'll be there soon.
The new message was immediately replied: I remembered you.
He Sibai's hand hung above the keyboard of his mobile phone for a moment.
This woman is always good at making his heart turn up inexplicable emotions with the gentle concern of a dragonfly.
William looked at Hess staring at his phone intently, and asked in wonder, "What's wrong?" β
"It's fine." After scanning the QR code, He Sibai stood up, "I still have something to do, I'm sorry for me first, goodbye." β
He said, standing up, ready to leave.
Unexpectedly, he was suddenly stopped by William again.
"By the way, in fact, compared to your brother," William smiled at the corner of his mouth, obviously waiting to watch the show, "I am more optimistic about you." If you want to choose an heir, you are more reliable. Although some are too serious. β
He Sibai's face was still cold. He stopped, turned his head, stared at the man, exuded an untamed anger, and denied succinctly: "Heir? You're thinking too much. β
The man shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and his words were ominous, as if he didn't want to argue helplessly: "...... OKγ β
He Sibai turned and left.
William didn't move, still with his legs open and his hands behind him. He tilted his head and watched He Sibai go away: "Remember to come to my engagement." β
When He Sibai's figure disappeared into the night, William whispered in a lazy and interested tone: "'Fang' Sibai." β
---------
By the time He Sibai arrived at the hall, it was already half an hour later. At this time, the banquet had ended, and the crowd was like a tired bird returning to the forest, scattering in all directions.
He stood in the banquet hall where the lights were lonely and the tables and chairs were scattered to call Shen Qingzhao, but no one answered until he hung up automatically.
He frowned, and as he walked to the door, he dialed again, only to hear the faint ringing of the phone.
The ringtone was Shen Qingzhao's mobile phone ringtone.
He held the phone and walked to see Shen Qingzhao leaning lazily against the lobby wall.
"Why are you leaning here?" He Sibai approached and asked softly.
Shen Qingzhao was sleepy and uncomfortable at this time, and when he heard a familiar voice, he finally opened his eyes lazily.
Seeing He Sibai, she laughed and pounced on him. Unloading all the weight into his arms: "Why did you come, I'm sleepy." β
"Then let's go home." He Sibai hugged her and whispered.
Shen Qingzhao's address was already familiar to He Sibai, and after the security guard at the door saw He Sibai, he let him go directly.
He Sibai carried the person into the house, put him on the sofa, leaned down again, and asked, "Do you want to drink water?" β
Shen Qingzhao shook his head.
If you are drunk like this, if you don't drink some water, your stomach will definitely be uncomfortable when you wake up tomorrow morning. He Sibai sighed, still ready to turn around and pour water.
Unexpectedly, he was just about to leave, but his wrist was firmly held by Shen Qingzhao.
Shen Qingzhao whispered like a dream: "You are not allowed to go!" β
He Sibai squatted down and patiently explained: "I'm not leaving." You're drunk, I'll pour you water. β
Shen Qingzhao actually sat up with a pout, his eyes lit up, and he stubbornly defended: "I'm not drunk!" I said I don't drink water! β
He Sibai couldn't help laughing: "Okay, listen to you." β
Only then did Shen Qingzhao calm down.
He Sibai waited for a while, and then asked tentatively: "It's late, are you going to sleep?" β
"No!" Shen Qingzhao raised his head suddenly, "You haven't told me a bedtime story yet." β
He Sibai: "......"
He really couldn't understand why Shen Qingzhao would be obsessed with telling stories every time he was drunk.
He asked, "What do you want to hear?" β
Shen Qingzhao tilted his head and thought for a while: "Tell me about yourself." β
He Sibai was stunned.
After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke: "A young woman has decided to divorce her husband and leave her son with him. β
Despite her husband's disapproval, the woman resolutely walked out of the house. The son, who had just come home from school, found that his mother was gone and went out to chase him. As a result, he happened to see his mother and another strange man get into a delicate and beautiful car. β
"It was a hot summer, and there were a lot of people sitting on the side of the road, including children and the elderly. They witnessed all this, and in the days that followed, they continued to belittle the woman and ridicule the father and son. β
"Not long after, the father who couldn't bear the gossip moved with his son......"
He Sibai talked to himself for a long time, and when he looked up, he found that Shen Qingzhao had fallen asleep on the sofa.
The light white moonlight sprinkled on her, and it was quiet.
He Sibai only felt that there was a soft place in his heart that was struck suddenly, and his eyes softened instantly.
The chaotic past, which made him feel inferior, dissipated in an instantβafter all, at this moment, his whole world was in sight.
He looked at the sleeping Shen Qing seriously for a while, stood up, bent down and picked her up, and sent her into the bedroom.
Helping her take off her shoes and cover the quilt, He Sibai dropped a light kiss on her forehead.
"Good night."
He curled his lips and whispered, "I hope you can dream of me." β
