Chapter 25 The sudden call
"However," Lu Zhinuo changed his tone and looked a little sad, "I am not interested in this blind date at all. I promised my family to return home. The most important thing is to let my blind date whom I didn't meet to give up my thoughts."
"Hmm?" He Chenxi was a little surprised.
Lu Zhinuo looked shy: "Hehe, actually, I already have something to do~"
So that's it. He Chenxi knew it and looked at Lu Zhinuo with a smile: "Let me guess, is the other party not having a famous family background, so your elders don't agree?"
"Not that," Lu Zhinuo stirred the coffee in front of him and looked at the street outside the glass window with some excitement: "We met in Yangcheng, Country M. He is a street wandering singer, very talented. You also know that there are all kinds of people in my circle, so I asked my friend to help him and contacted him an entertainment company. He is also very successful. Now he is well-known in Country M., but my father didn't say anything, just her aunt..."
When Lu Zhinuo said the word "aunt" again, she stopped suddenly. She turned her eyes to look at He Chenxi. Seeing that He Chenxi's eyes were a little cold, his expression was still very natural. She smiled and sighed: "Oh, don't say it, don't say it. In a few days, the man will ask me to meet. Can you go with me then?"
After saying that, she blinked a pair of big star eyes and looked at He Chenxi wetly.
From childhood to adulthood, the one that He Chenxi couldn't stand was Lu Zhinuo's big eyes with innocent special effects. He wanted to refuse, but in the end he still couldn't touch Lu Zhinuo's pitiful little eyes, so he had no choice but to nod and agreed with a smile.
Lu Zhinuo let out a "ah" and ran over and gave He Chenxi a big hug: "Oh, Xiaoxi, I really love you!"
...
It was already noon for the two of them to come out of the cafe. They had eaten a lot of desserts in the cafe and were not very hungry, so they did not go for lunch.
Lu Zhinuo did not return to China for seven years and was very nostalgic about everything in the imperial capital. He Chenxi thought that he was fine anyway, so he accompanied Lu Zhinuo to visit various attractions in the imperial capital.
Both of them talked about many interesting things in the past and laughed like a child all day long.
In the evening, the two said they would separate. When picking up the car, Lu Zhinuo glanced at He Chenxi's scooter that was less than 100,000 yuan, pursed his lips, but he didn't say anything after all.
He Chenxi could see the distress in Lu Zhinuo's eyes, but she did not show anything. She just smiled and waved to Lu Zhinuo and said goodbye.
Watching He Chenxi leave in his sports car, until he couldn't see He Chenxi at all, Lu Zhinuo took out his cell phone from his bag and dialed out: "Hey, aunt, I saw Xiaoxi today..."
...
I don’t know if it was because of the reason why Lu Zhinuo said that he was driving back today, thinking about whether to remind Gu Shengze tonight about her entry into Xingtu Entertainment Company.
Lu Zhinuo is actually right. Now she is in a very special time to need money, but rather than relying on Gu Shengze to earn his support expenses, it is better to make money with her job with peace of mind.
It was not too late. When He Chenxi returned to the villa, the sun had not yet set completely. The west sky was dyed red. Looking past the mountain, it was particularly spectacular.
"Miss He, you are back." When Aunt Lan saw her coming back, she greeted her and walked over and reached out to take the bag from He Chenxi.
He Chenxi nodded: "I'm back. Has Mr. Gu not come back yet?"
"The young master has always been very busy. Yesterday afternoon was probably the earliest day I came back. For the rest, the young master basically came back after nine o'clock." Aunt Lan responded to her.
He Chenxi nodded and didn't speak anymore, but was thinking in his heart how to talk about work with Gu Shengze. After all, Gu Shengze's attitude towards her was there last night and this morning.
If a mistress can do this to her, I am afraid there is no one else except her?
He Chenxi thought to himself with some self-deprecating thoughts.
...
Gu Shengze has a drink party tonight, and the location is set at Futai Royal Hotel.
The owner of the wine shop is Liu Dongxu, the president of the Liu Group, which started with a real estate business in the Imperial Capital. This wine shop is mainly to discuss the investment issues of the land around the Imperial Capital Tourist Area.
Gu's family is the most powerful in the imperial capital, so even though they were sitting at a table, Liu Dongxu still wanted to put a big head on Gu Shengze. First, as long as Gu's family is willing to cooperate, they will definitely not be too stingy when they take action. Second, they can also use Gu's name to advertise.
There were already all the people in the private room, but Gu Shengze's seat was still empty.
But Gu Shengze didn't come, and the table of people was watching the table of dishes, and none of them moved their chopsticks.
Liu Dongxu sat in the main seat, and as time passed by, his palms were already full of sweat.
Gu Shengze has a strange temper, which is famous in their business circle. He is afraid that Gu Shengze will suddenly stop coming. However, many people at this table came for Gu Shengze's name.
The atmosphere at the wine table was a bit stiff, and a few of them were even beginning to whisper in a low voice.
Liu Dongxu's heart was hanging high, until the door of the private room was gently pushed open.
Just a slight "creak" sound, and the entire private room instantly looked at the door.
The one who came in opened the door was first of all, tall and beautiful women wearing office suits.
The woman automatically gave in without walking in two steps, and pulled the door to give way to the man with a strong aura behind her.
Because it was a dinner party, many people brought their female companions. When Gu Shengze's tall body completely entered the private room, his exquisite face couldn't help but suffocate the women present.
This man is so perfect!
However, the aura that no one can get close to the man has also made several women who were originally ready to move timidly withdraw their thoughts.
Liu Dongxu immediately stood up, quickly walked forward, shook hands with Gu Shengze and greeted him: "Mr. Gu, I'm lucky to meet you."
Gu Shengze's eyebrows moved, and he opened his mouth, and the magnetic and nice male voice rang in the private room in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I encountered a traffic jam on the road, so I came a little late."
...
Everything went smoothly. Gu Shengze just sat there quietly and didn't speak much. It was just that when someone toasted him with a drink, he spoke quietly and said a few words. However, because Liu Dongxu deliberately wanted to cooperate with Gu Shengze, Gu Shengze still made the biggest profit.
After Gu's profit was taken down, others here were still discussing.
Gu Shengze was not very interested in how much profit others got. In short, it was not as good as their Gu family. He was not in a good mood today. As others talked, he sat aside and drank glasses of wine.
Jiang Liyin has been following Gu Shengze for so long. Gu Shengze rarely drinks at dinner parties. Many people toast him, but she usually blocks him. But today, Gu Shengze didn't let her block the wine, and she drank so much. Without thinking, Gu Shengze is in a bad mood.
Jiang Liyin's beautiful eyes moved. She thought Gu Shengze would ask her about what happened last night at work today, but Gu Shengze went to the company early in the morning, but his attitude towards her was almost the same as usual. However, there were a lot more cigarette butts in the ashtray in Gu Shengze's office today than usual.
Could it be that the woman did something that offended Gu Shengze?
Thinking of this, Jiang Liyin's long pointed nails fell deeply into his palm.
In the past two years, Gu Shengze has always been known for his cold-faced iceberg. That woman has only appeared for a short time, which has frequently made Gu Shengze feel emotional?
As the dinner was coming to an end, most of the people present had reached their own profits. Someone suggested going to the newly opened entertainment club in the east of the city to have fun, and soon received many people's approval.
As the owner of this dinner, Liu Dongxu was inevitably going to go there together.
He looked at Gu Shengze.
The man's eyebrows were slightly locked, his eyes were hanging down and his wine glass in his hand, his thin and cold lips were pursed tightly, as if he was not listening to the people at the table talking about anything.
Liu Dongxu thought for a while and raised his cup to Gu Shengze: "If Mr. Gu is fine, why not enjoy his face and wait and go to the Jade Palace in the east of the city with us for a while?"
Gu Shengze lifted his eyelids and opened his mouth. Before he could speak, the cell phone in his suit pocket rang. He reached out to get the cell phone in his pocket, looked at the caller ID, raised his eyes and looked at Liu Dongxu, with a slightly polite expression on his face: "I'll go out and answer the phone first."
Gu Shengze came out of the private room and answered the phone. He put his phone in his ear while walking towards the bathroom.
I called from the old house on the phone.
As soon as the phone was connected, he heard the gentle voice of the butler on the old house: "Young Master, are you free now?"
"What's the matter?" While speaking, Gu Shengze had already walked into the compartment of the bathroom in the center of the bathroom. He did not go into the toilet, but leaned against the wall, took a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.
"The old man said there are some very important things that I want to tell you to let you go back to the old house."
Gu Shengze narrowed his eagle eyes slightly, took a sip of cigarette, spit out, and then slowly said: "I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Shengze turned around and walked to the door of the private room, he happened to see the people in the private room going out one after another.
When Liu Dongxu saw him, he hurriedly raised his foot to greet him with a flattering smile on his face: "Mr. Gu, we are all waiting for you."
Gu Shengze glanced at him, shook his head slightly, and looked at the others: "You guys just have fun, I won't go there. The old man asked me to go back to the old house now if you have something to do."
In fact, Gu Shengze was already a little drunk.
Jiang Liyin didn't drink. She should get off work after the dinner party, but looking at Gu Shengze's slightly drunk appearance, she was worried that she would let the driver come to send Gu Shengze back to the old house, so she volunteered to move forward: "Mr. Gu, you have drunk a lot of wine, should I drive you there, right?"
Gu Shengze turned his eyes and looked at her, without saying a word, just nodded slightly.
He didn't want to spend the night in the old house. Jiang Liyin just happened to live next to He Chenxi. After a while, she just asked her to take him back.
Seeing that Gu Shengze did not refuse, Jiang Liyin helped him out of the hotel and went to the underground parking lot.
