Chapter 255: Undercurrent
When she was about to get off work, Qu Xiaoyan received a call from He Xianming, saying that she wanted to celebrate, and had already booked a table in a French restaurant.
Ling Ran had no choice but to leave work early and go to the French restaurant accompanied by Saiwen.
At the same time, Severn also asked Albert to go to the restaurant with him, and got a seat not far from Qu Xiaoyan and them. Ever since Ling Ran said that he should pay attention to it, as long as Ling Ran traveled, both openly and secretly, Saiwen would have some arrangements.
When Qu Xiaoyan arrived, He Xianming was already sitting in the reserved seat and waiting. And when he saw Saiwen and Albert, He Xianming was stunned, and was about to express his dissatisfaction, but saw that the two of them walked to the seat not far from him and Xiaoyan and sat down, and did not come to have dinner with him and Yanyan, so he didn't say anything.
"Miss Sai is not with Ah Cheng, why with Albert?" He Xianming asked puzzled.
"This is Sister Wenwen's privacy, and we don't bother to ask about it. Cousin, I don't see it, you're quite gossipy. Qu Xiaoyan quipped.
"I'm just curious to ask. He Xianming was embarrassed by Qu Xiaoyan.
"They are all Chinese who grew up abroad, which is different from our thinking and etiquette. Cousin, don't think about people with our thoughts. Qu Xiaoyan said.
"If you don't say it, I forgot, they're different from us. He Xianming said.
"Why is my cousin in the mood to take me out to dinner today?
"Hmm. Rong Heng's matter is almost settled. I haven't had a good meal with you during this time, so my cousin made up for it today. He Xianming said softly.
"Okay. Then I'm going to have a good meal. Qu Xiaoyan said with a smile.
At this time, the waiter came over with a bottle of sobered red wine, poured half a glass for each of them, and then left.
"Come on, Yeon-yeon, let's touch. Celebrate for my cousin, and celebrate for us in the future. He Xianming raised his glass and said.
"Oh, my cousin seems to be very happy, is there anything I don't know about?" Qu Xiaoyan smiled and raised her glass to He Xianming.
"Ah, you guessed it. He Xianming said happily: "Today, your uncle woke up and came to Rongheng." And I have been officially appointed as the chairman of Rongheng. ”
"It's great that my uncle is awake!" Qu Xiaoyan said happily: "I also appointed my cousin to officially take over the chairmanship? Cousin, come, Yanyan congratulates you on officially becoming the successor of the He family and the leader of Rongheng!" raised his glass and clinked glasses with He Xianming again.
"Okay, thank you Yanyan!" He Xianming said happily. Drain the wine from the glass in one gulp.
"Yeonyan, the matter on the American side has been almost dealt with. My aunt will be back in a few days. He Xianming said.
"Really, Mom didn't tell me. It's so good, I almost miss my mother!" Qu Xiaoyan said.
"Hehe, my aunt is back, and I can be more relaxed here on Rong Heng's side. He Xianming said with a smile. Then put down the wine glass, reached out to hold the little cousin's hand, looked at Qu Xiaoyan with gentle eyes, and said, "Yanyan, when my aunt comes back, I am ready to tell my aunt about the two of us, okay?" There was joy and anticipation in his eyes.
"What are we, what's the matter?" Qu Xiaoyan blushed and pretended not to know.
"Hehehe, of course it's our marriage. What, isn't Yanyan willing?" He Xianming looked at his little cousin's shy appearance, his mood was even more pleasant, he put Qu Xiaoyan's hand to his mouth and kissed it, and asked with gentle eyes looking at Qu Xiaoyan.
"Would you like to ask like this, right?" Qu Xiaoyan looked at He Xianming, pouted and said coquettishly: "Is this your attitude towards proposing?"
"Hehehe, cousin just said hello to you first. This is not a marriage proposal. He Xianming was amused. He knew that his Yeon-yeon would not refuse him.
"Hmph!" Qu Xiaoyan snorted, wanting to withdraw her hand, but she didn't get her wish.
"Yeon-yeon is my most precious treasure. Marriage proposal, but you have to hold a very grand ceremony, how can it be so simple. I don't want to wronged my baby. He Xianming held Qu Xiaoyan's little hand and said softly with eyes as gentle as water.
"Oh, cousin, you're so numb!" Qu Xiaoyan couldn't stand such an ambiguous atmosphere outside, and hurriedly spoke.
At this time, the waiter also brought the food, and He Xianming let go of Qu Xiaoyan's hand and said, "Hehehe, don't you want to have a big meal? This foie gras was flown in, it's very fresh, so let's eat it. ”
"Oh. Qu Xiaoyan said a little shyly. Then I picked up a knife and fork and started eating the delicious foie gras.
Far away from Qu Xiaoyan and them, a foreign man and a woman were also dining. But the eyes of both of them looked vaguely at Qu Xiaoyan's table from time to time.
And their actions have long been in the eyes of Severn and Albert. The two looked at each other for a moment, then continued their normal meal and talked softly. However, in a place that others did not see, Sai Wen had already used a vague method to inform the few diners around Qu Xiaoyan.
When Qu Xiaoyan and He Xianming were half-eaten and were talking intimately, the foreign couple settled the bill and got up to leave. It's just that their route is indeed coming to Qu Xiaoyan's side.
When they got up and walked this way, with Saiwen's secret gesture, a slender young man and a middle-aged man who were a gentleman in a seat next to Qu Xiaoyan also got up at the same time, walked towards Qu Xiaoyan, and stopped next to Qu Xiaoyan's table, making an intimate move, just separating Qu Xiaoyan from the two people who came over.
Moreover, when the two of them were about to walk over, the young man suddenly screamed softly, and said to the foreign man: "You don't have long eyes when you walk, don't you know if you touch me?" and then leaned on the middle-aged man's arms and said coquettishly: "Honey, he hit me!"
The middle-aged man patted the young man soothingly, then looked at the foreign man and said, "Sir, please apologize to my baby." ”
"He was talking nonsense, I didn't run into him at all. The foreign man said disdainfully.
"I'm not talking nonsense. You touched me on purpose. Hmph, I still want to take advantage of me with a woman, color embryo!" said the slender young man.
"You, you nonsense!" the foreign man was.
"Apologize! Otherwise, I'm not kind to you!" the middle-aged man said solemnly.
"Ha, I'd like to see how you're so unkind to us!?" said the woman next to the foreign man angrily.
"I'm going to duel him. The middle-aged gentleman said.
"Ha, I'm willing to accompany!" the foreign man smiled disdainfully.
"Then please. This is not a good venue for a duel. The middle-aged gentleman said.
"Okay! I can't wait. The foreign man said proudly. Then he left the restaurant with the woman along with the middle-aged man and the slender youth. This is the end of a big and small turmoil.
But everyone didn't pay attention, after the four of them left, Qu Xiaoyan and the two people in a seat next to them also finished the account and walked out of the restaurant with the four people, and left behind the four people.
"I didn't expect that there were also low-quality people coming to dine in this kind of place. He Xianming watched the whole process and was very ashamed of the behavior of the four people just now.
"yes. Qu Xiaoyan didn't say much. His eyes flickered as he lowered his head and ate the delicious salad on his plate.
The slender young man just now was always by her side, stealthily protecting her shadow. The other is the rest of the Demon Soul Team that Severn has brought to protect her. Since Ying came forward just now to deliberately find fault, and approached their side from the foreigner and the woman, it means that the other party has a problem. Ling Ran was very glad in his heart that he had thought in advance that there would be trouble from the Yan family, otherwise he didn't know what would happen today.
By the time Qu Xiaoyan and He Xianming had eaten almost, they were almost tired. Saiwen and Albert settled the bill, and came over to chat with He Xianming.
After eating, Albert drove Severn away, saying that he was going to the movies. And He Xianming drove Qu Xiaoyan back to He's house. It's just that in a place that He Xianming didn't notice at all, their car was followed by two inconspicuous cars, and they didn't leave quietly until they arrived at He's house safely.
