Xu Bo's mind moved, and he understood Huo Xici's intentions.

"You can't stand Young Master Xiang, so you have to take your wife out to hide Qingjing!"

Uncle Xu smiled.

Everything is running smoothly.

The next morning, Nan Chu and Horthy left on a business trip.

Except for Uncle Xu who remained at home, only Xiang Yang remained.

"Xiang Yang is still reliable sometimes."

Nan Chu couldn't help but laugh when he remembered his adoration for Huo Xici.

Horthy said "heh" and didn't speak again.

In the evening, the two arrived in Jiangcheng.

Compared with the prosperity of the imperial capital, Jiangcheng has a natural beauty.

After landing, Huo Xici got into the car sent by the other party directly.

"We, Mr. Chen, have been waiting for you for a long time."

Nan Chu was a little surprised.

She thought that Horthy would not start work until at least tomorrow.

From the assistant's mouth, Nan Chu learned that the name of this "Mr. Chen" was Chen Jiarong.

He was the boss who started from scratch and succeeded through entrepreneurship during the economic heyday more than ten years ago.

"Don't put too much pressure."

Huo Xici shook Nan Chu's hand, "This business is not easy to discuss. ”

This Chen Jiarong is very picky and cautious.

Last time, Qi Bin also went to Jiangcheng in person, but he was completely rejected.

In the end, he returned to the imperial capital in a gloomy manner.

The place that Chen Jiarong booked was a hotel owned by his company, which was very famous in the local area.

Nan Chu followed Huo Xi and walked into the private room.

This is a middle-aged man in his forties.

It is not easy to achieve what we are today.

"Mr. Huo actually brought his wife here, Chen is very honored."

Chen Jiarong got up, raised his hand, and saluted the two.

looks like an old gentleman abroad, rather than a local snake boss who worked hard from the bottom of society.

Huo Xici didn't be polite with him, and pulled Nan Chu to sit down.

Nan Chu was thoughtful.

Chen Jiarong's voice was hoarse, and he could hear it in the heavy panting, and his lungs seemed to have a problem.

She looked up and looked at the man carefully.

I always feel that I have seen it somewhere.

She looked up at Chen Jiarong again, and was caught off guard by the other party's meaningful gaze.

Odd.

The conversation between the two on the project, Nan Chu did not listen attentively.

She pondered when she had seen the person opposite.

"Mr. Chen, you're distracted."

Horthy reminded in a calm tone.

Chen Jiarong is not embarrassed.

He asked generously, "Dare to ask, Mrs. Huo's profession is a doctor?" ”

It's no secret.

Nan Chu bowed slightly.

Chen Jiarong's eyes lit up.

"Do you remember that on a flight to the imperial capital, you saved a person who suddenly had emphysema?"

Nan Chu's head exploded with a "buzz".

It turned out to be him!

That's when she and Wenye went to a seminar.

At that time, Wen Ye also advised her not to meddle in her affairs.

It's really a place in life where we don't meet.

"It looks like you don't carry your asthma medicine with you anymore."

Nan Chu replied gently and politely.

Chen Jiarong was completely excited at this moment.

He stood up, gesturing his hands excitedly in the air.

"I'm glad I met you in time, otherwise, I'm afraid I'd still think it's asthma until I die!"

"Later, I went back to many doctors and was diagnosed with emphysema."

"It's well controlled now!"

This scene is the first time Nan Chu has encountered it.

She quickly stood up.

The hand under the table quietly tugged at Horthy's sleeve.

While talking politely to Chen Jiarong, he kept handing over his eyes to Huo Xi for help.

Huo Xici took Chen Jiarong's words and brought the topic back to the project.

I don't know if it's Nan Chu's illusion, she actually felt that Chen Jiarong seemed to be a lot better at talking than at the beginning.

For this project, Huo Xici did not report much hope in the first place.

Now it's even going on to talk about it.

After eating, it is obvious that both parties are quite satisfied.

When he walked out of the private room, Chen Jiarong smiled at Huo Xici.

"You're lucky to have a good wife."

It was the first time Nan Chu had heard someone say that.

More often than not, she hears the exact opposite.

Again and again the facts proved to her.

She would never be worse than anyone else, and she would certainly be qualified to stand by Horsi's side.

The two stayed in a hotel suite arranged by Chen Jiarong.

Nan Chu leaned on Huo Xici's shoulder, his gaze sweeping over his computer screen.

"What is this?"

In the center of the gorgeous web page is the big words "Jiangcheng Jewelry Design Competition".

How......

As if by magic, Horthy took out two tickets and handed them to Nan Chu.

"Start at nine a.m., don't oversleep."

Nan Chu's mind went blank for a moment.

She flipped the ticket to the back, and there was a ticket time at the bottom.

It was the day when the two decided to come to Jiangcheng together.

The tip of her nose was sour.

When it comes to the location of the business trip, Huo Xici's first choice is Jiangcheng.

He condensed the negotiation time of the project into a dinner.

Just to take her to tomorrow's game.

No one could be more attentive than Horthy.

At night, lying on the bed in the hotel, Nan Chu subconsciously pressed the position of his heart.

At least for this moment, she was willing to admit that she liked Horthy.

There is no need for any disguise or euphemism.

Jiangcheng has developed transportation and is located between several major provinces, and there are many merchants coming and going.

The scale of the jewelry design competition held is not inferior to that of the imperial capital.

Nan Chu sat in the best position in the entire audience, and his mood was a little complicated.

"Mr. Huo, isn't this a good ......?"

Tickets for this location are not sold at sky-high prices?

Horthy curled the corners of his lips.

"The investor of the competition is Huo's branch in Jiangcheng."

“……”

Affection is the tribute of the people below to your old man.

Nan Chu secretly slandered in his heart.

The game started quickly, and Nan Chu immediately sat up straight and watched intently.

The style, consciousness, and even the flow of the competition in each piece are what she must learn.

Horthy took out his computer as if no one was around.

Immediately met with the hatred of the people around him.

In terms of process, Jiangcheng's game is a little simpler than that of the imperial capital.

Only one round, through the score to determine the winner.

One exquisite work after another was unveiled, washing away the cognition of Nanchu.

If it was all at this level of design, she would have no chance of winning.

Nan Chu snatched Huo Xici's computer, opened the document, and quickly recorded every point she learned.

Horthy was stunned for a moment, and then smiled helplessly.

By the final stage of the competition, two of the entries stood out.

A red phoenix nirvana brooch, an aqua blue deep-sea mermaid pendant.

One is thrilling beauty, and the other is quiet and natural beauty.

Even if it was Nan Chu, it would be difficult for her to choose one of the two works.

Suddenly, the designer of the brooch asked to explain his work again.

"The phoenix in the center of this brooch can be taken off separately and worn as a pendant!"

As she spoke, she pressed the tiny reed on the side, and the phoenix fell off with it.

The phoenix, which has lost its flame and looks up at the sky, has a lonely and quiet temperament.
