Chapter 2: Meet Again
Four years later, Pengcheng
Chen Xi returned from a business trip to Tokyo, and as soon as he got out of the airport, he rushed to the waterfront resort, and tonight there was an auction held at the five-star hotel there.
When she arrived, it was already dark, the banquet hall was full of guests, and the social reception was already underway, and she found the auction's coordinator in a shadow of clothes and temples.
Miss Fang handed her a copy of the information, "I've inquired for you, the oil painting you want, there are not many people who are interested, and there is a great possibility that you can take it." ”
Chen Xi thanked and took it, she was taking the place of her seriously ill aunt tonight, and that oil painting was very important to the elderly.
She also wanted to ask for details, but the originally brightly lit banquet hall suddenly fell into darkness.
The scene was in an uproar, and the sound of screams and messy footsteps suddenly filled the entire venue.
In the chaos, Chen Xi seemed to see a knife shining with cold light, and before she could tell it, she was suddenly pushed away by someone, and when she fell to the ground, she instinctively reached out and grabbed someone else to stabilize her body, but unexpectedly, she fell backwards with the person.
When she fully reacted, she found herself lying on a male body in an ambiguous position.
The man's warm breath sprayed on the side of her face, and she was struggling to get up, but her heart inadvertently brushed the man's chest.
"Don't move!" The man's low, cold voice drank.
The posture was awkward, and Chen Xi was also frightened and didn't dare to move again.
A few minutes later, the banquet hall was also powered back on, and before Chen Xi could see the appearance of the man under him, he was vigorously ripped open from behind.
She looked up and saw a man with a cut of his head nervously picking up the man who had fallen to the ground.
"I'm sorry, I just now..." After Chen Xi stood firmly, he wanted to apologize to the man, but the moment he saw the man's face, his eyebrows jumped, and what he wanted to say was stuck.
The bright light hit the man like a golden glow, just as noble as four years ago.
It's him!
Although there was only a brief meeting four years ago, the man's handsome face with deep facial features immediately made Chen Xi recognize that he was Mr. Gao who met in Tokyo that year.
When the other party heard her voice, he lifted his eyes to look over, but his eyes did not fluctuate at all, he only glanced at her, raised his feet and left.
His glance at the lack of temperature made Chen Xi inexplicably a little lost.
Miss Fang, who had just been swept away by the crowd, found Chen Xi, "Cici, are you okay?" ”
Chen Xi shook her head, her eyes still following the back of the man leaving, Miss Fang followed her gaze and asked, "Do you know Gao Zhexing?" ”
"His name is Gao Zhexing?" Chen Xi was noncommittal.
Miss Fang said on her own: "The vice president of Huayang Group, who is in the limelight, I heard that he has a lot of means, and the fifth diamond king is naturally the target of many unmarried ladies in the city..."
Huayang Group, a well-known listed company, integrates real estate, wharf, infrastructure, communications, and retail, and has also shown its strength in energy and medical care in recent years.
Chen Xi knew in his heart, it was normal for him not to recognize himself as a person of such status.
It was just a sudden encounter between strangers, an accident of conformist life for her, and a trivial peachy incident for him... There will be no chance to meet again in the world.
Soon the auction began, and Chen Xi also put this episode behind him.
It's just that until the end of the auction, the oil painting Chen Xi wanted did not appear at the auction table.
Chen Xi immediately contacted Miss Fang, but was told by the other party that the painting had been privately bought at a high price ten minutes ago, and Miss Fang had no time to stop it.
The situation was unexpected, and Chen Xi had no choice but to ask Miss Fang to further inquire about the buyer's information.
While waiting, Chen Xi simply opened a room in the hotel to rest, but as soon as she settled down, an inch-headed man wearing a black mask held her hostage.
Someone knocked on the door, and Chen Xi thought it was a food delivery service, but it turned out to be a Swiss Army knife across her carotid artery.
Chen Xi was so frightened that he forgot about his struggle.
"Don't make a sound." The inch-headed man glanced down the hallway, lowered his voice, and said, "I won't hurt you, I'm looking for you to do me a favor!" ”
As he spoke, he quickly pulled Chen Xi to the business suite at the end of the corridor.
As soon as she entered the room, Chen Xi smelled a strange smell of blood, and when she was pulled to the bedroom door and saw the situation inside, she was even more surprised.
I saw Gao Zhexing lying on the bloodstained bed, his face was pale, his eyes were closed, his right hand was covering his left chest, and there were a lot of blood stains between his fingers...
He's hurt!
Chen Xi was stunned, and before she could react, the inch-headed man behind her pushed her away, pointed to the first aid kit in front of her, and ordered: "Give him a wound, quickly!" ”
She subconsciously asked, "You don't take him to the hospital?" ”
"Don't ask so much!" The inch-headed man strode forward and scolded, "No more nonsense, believe it or not, I scratched the flowers with a knife..."
But before the threatening words were finished, another voice interrupted him, "Ayo! ”
The timbre is low, and the inch-headed man is drunk with just two words!
The inch-headed man immediately turned around and said complimentingly: "Mr. Gao, someone brought it over." ”
Chen Xi also reflexively looked at the source of the sound, only to see that the person who had closed his eyes just now was looking directly at him at this time.
Chen Xi met Gao Zhexing's dark and sharp eyes.
At this moment, Chen Xi could perceive that Gao Zhexing recognized himself!
Because no one here knows that she studied medicine except him.
After two seconds of silence, he spoke, "Come and bandage me." ”
It's the same as the low tone of four years ago, but it exudes the majesty of the superior.
Chen Xi suppressed many doubts in his heart, and stepped forward to lift Gao Zhexing's clothes to check the wound.
It was a knife wound, although it did not hurt the heart, but the wound was not shallow, the bleeding had stopped, and it had to be stitched up after disinfection.
With a preliminary judgment, she looked at the first-aid kit next to her, and was surprised to find that the medicines and tools were complete, and it was more than enough to do a minor operation.
Chen Xi studied clinical studies as an undergraduate, and although she did not work in a hospital after graduating from graduate school, it was difficult for her to bandage and suture. She picked up the tools and began to disinfect and localize the anesthesia with neat hands.
While waiting for the anesthesia to take effect, her mind was also spinning a thousand times.
There is no shortage of professional doctors in the resort, but Gao Zhexing sent someone to find him, presumably because he didn't want people to know that he was injured, but this sudden knife wound looked very simple...
Chen Xi didn't dare to think about it anymore, she made up her mind, she changed her gloves and began to stitch up the wound.
After some operation, Chen Xi took off his gloves and said to the inch-headed man on the side: "The disinfection conditions here are limited, so it is best to go to the hospital immediately for further examination." ”
The inch-headed man glanced at her, but ignored the second half of her sentence.
Chen Xi didn't want to wait for someone to pick her up, so she raised her feet and walked to the door.
Just took a few steps, Gao Zhexing's low and cold voice came from behind,
"Miss Chen, stay."
