Chapter 40: Rising to the Challenge

He didn't stop long, opened the door and left the old mansion.

On the way back, Ji Xianting kept a gloomy face, he hated this feeling, this feeling of being at the mercy of others was even about to suffocate him, even if that person was his mother.

The irritability forced him to hit the gas hard and drive mechanically.

He didn't know how long he had been driving, and he didn't know why he drove the car downstairs at Ruan Cen's house.

Ji Xianting opened the car door and walked down, he raised his head and looked at the window.

He guessed that Ruan Cen should be resting at this time, holding the phone in his hand and unlocking it and watching it lock it again, the number he wanted to dial out was still not dialed out after all.

He took out a cigarette from his pocket and stood downstairs at Ruan Cen's house and smoked one cigarette after another.

Suddenly, Ji Xianting felt a chill in his hands.

He looked up, and it was snowing.

No wonder, the sky has been boring since this morning.

Ji Xianting lowered his head and smiled, and snuffed out the cigarette in his hand that was about to burn out.

He took out his mobile phone and dialed Huachen's number: "Come out for a drink." ”

Then he opened the car door and drove away.

Ruan Cen only felt that he was dazzled, as if he had seen Ji Xianting's car.

Originally, I noticed that it was snowing and wanted to take a look at the window, but I happened to see a car driving away, and the car seemed to be the same as Ji Xianting's car.

Immediately, Ruan Cen shook his head: "Why did he come here, he should have told himself when he came." ”

Thinking so, Ruan Cen left the window.

When Ji Xianting arrived at the bar, Mu Ze happened to be there, or Mu Ze arrived first.

"Huachen called you?" Ji Xianting sat down and asked.

"Of course, it's a little strange that you can be called out for a drink at this time, and I'm definitely going to join in the fun." Saying that, Maki Ze picked up his phone and glanced at the time, 17 o'clock.

Ji Xianting didn't speak, just leaned back in his chair and was a little absent-minded.

"Is there really something on your mind?" Mu Ze looked at Ji Xianting's appearance and poured him a glass of wine first.

Ji Xianting looked at the wine in the cup and didn't speak, still playing with the lighter in his hand.

Soon, Huachen also arrived.

"You two are fast enough."

"From the south?" Makisawa asked.

"It should be on the way, too."

Ji Xianting sat up, picked up the wine glass, and drank it to himself.

Hua Chen looked at Mu Ze and asked with his eyes: What's wrong with him?

Makisawa shrugged his shoulders and said he didn't know.

"What's wrong?" Hua Chen put his hand on Ji Xianting's shoulder: "Don't drink by yourself." ”

When Ji Xianting heard this, he helped the two of them pour wine.

"Drink."

Hua Chen felt that Ji Xianting was really a little abnormal: "What's wrong with you?" ”

Ji Xianting put the cup on the table: "Didn't you remind me last time, Xu Xiaoshu is back." ”

Mu Ze was stunned for a moment: "Who?" Xu Xiaoshu? ”

Hua Chen immediately understood: "Have you met?" ”

"See you in the morning."

"What do you mean, wait a minute, why didn't I understand?" Makisawa couldn't keep up.

Hua Chen glanced at him: "Xianting's mother has liked Xu Xiaoshu very much since she was a child, and she also revealed before that she wanted her to be her daughter-in-law. But fortunately, in those years, Xianting and Xiaoshu were abroad, and there was no action at home. Now that she's back, I thought there would be a move, but I didn't expect it to be so fast. ”

"Isn't it? Getting you married so soon? Makizawa's eyes widened.

Ji Xianting shook his head: "It's not that I'm married." ”

"It's for you to socialize, right? Anyway, do you know why she still went to see her? Hua Chen asked.

"The old lady is very good, and she knows that I won't go to see it, so she said let me go and meet an important customer." Ji Xianting laughed to himself.

"High, it's really high, or Aunt Qiu." Huachen couldn't help but sigh.

Ji Xianting's eyes narrowed slightly and looked at Huachen, and Huachen immediately stopped talking.

Mu Ze began to ask a series of questions: "Then what are you going to do?" Engaged to her? So what about Ruan Cen? ”

Finally someone mentioned Nguyen Cen.

Ji Xianting didn't speak, and drank another glass of wine.

Hua Chen frowned slightly: "I instigated you and Ruan Cen to think that you still have a few years of good time, but I didn't expect that the good time would end before it came, what now?" Either before the further development is over. ”

"But I don't think Xu Xiaoshu should care about Ruan Cen's existence, right? Which one in the circle is not playing its own game, everyone turns a blind eye, and you can't give up if you like it. "Mu Ze mentioned the thunder point of Ji Xianting very deadly.

Ji Xianting looked at Mu Ze and sneered: "What did you say?" ”

Seeing this, Hua Chen picked up the pillow behind him and threw it at Mu Ze: "What are you talking about." You're the old season, are you? People, what a good girl Ruan Cen is, you get out of the way. ”

Ji Xianting lowered his eyes and said lightly: "It's too late." ”

"What do you mean?" Hua Chen and Mu Ze don't know why.

"I told Ruan Cen yesterday."

"What did you say?" Makisawa was a little anxious.

Hua Chen understood: "You won't confess to her, will you?" ”

Ji Xianting did not deny it: "Sort of." ”

"Holy!" Mu Ze stood up directly: "It's really the first time in the world!" ”

"What did she say?" Huachen asked further.

"She didn't give me an answer, so she should still be thinking about it." Ji Xianting continued to drink, and his face was not shown.

Huachen also frowned: "Then what should I do?" ”

"I've already rejected Xu Xiaoshu, and she doesn't have that mind for me, so we've already talked about it."

"And what are you worried about?" Makisawa didn't understand.

Hua Chen gave him a blank look: "Of course it's his mother!" ”

Saying that, Hua Chen moved his gaze to Ji Xianting's body: "So, what did your mother say?" ”

"Knocked me on the side, you should understand."

Of course Hua Chen understands, Qiu Siyin is a well-known ruthless character in the entire circle of high-class wives.

"And what are you going to do?" Hua Chen asked in a deep voice.

Ji Xianting looked at the wine glass in his hand, and the tails of his eyes were a little red: "I want to see if I can open a way in the face of difficulties." ”
