Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Huo Jun supported his head with one hand, his eyes lingering...

Huo Jun supported his head with one hand, his eyes fixed on Fang Shimian's face as he carefully selected the drink, and lazily drank the red wine in the glass.

"This child is from the Fang family in the former compound, right?"

The young man in the white suit hid in a corner with few people, lowered his head and focused on eating, like a rabbit that was suddenly thrown into a hunting ground of large beasts. He was completely unaware of the eager gazes of the people around him and was still there innocently choosing food.

When the people present have completed the necessary social interactions, the banquet will naturally have other functions.

Without power, being beautiful and eye-catching is a sin.

The waiter brought Huo Jun some drinks for him to choose from. Huo Jun picked up a bottle of champagne and turned around to sit opposite Huo Zhongshan. "What do you think Zhu Ze'an is thinking?"

Huo Zhongshan sat cross-legged on the sofa, his eyes filled with laziness and fatigue. He leisurely played with an antique silver coin without touching a drop of the wine on the table.

Until the snow-white rabbit downstairs left the bright lights and returned to the dark to eat. Huo Zhongshan had a calm expression and said slowly: "I just marked everything in advance."

Huo Jun snorted and laughed, then lit a cigarette. White smoke rose up, just like a few wisps of bright red spring color suddenly appearing in the bleak late autumn, stirring people's hearts and making them restless.

"Idiot, if you let it out now, it will attract people's attention for no reason."

The intricately patterned silver coin had a soft luster under the light. The drink in Huo Zhongshan's hand was quietly removed by the waiter and replaced with a cup of steaming black tea.

"Zhu Ze is going through the resignation process recently. The Internet company he co-founded with Zhou is doing quite well."

"No wonder." Huo Jun recalled Zhu Ze's blunt warning to him, and extinguished his cigarette in annoyance. He picked up the glass and took a sip of champagne, then looked downstairs again and said absentmindedly, "It's a pity that such a clean rabbit fell into the hands of that hypocrite."

Hearing this, Huo Zhongshan raised his eyes and glanced at Huo Jun.

Huo Jun was silent for a moment, then changed the subject and mentioned the company's recent new projects with other groups.

Fang Shimian was full and in a much better mood. He glanced at the banquet center and saw a young couple holding their child and talking to someone.

The child was wearing a beautiful bright red dress. He must have just learned to walk and was trying to run around. The couple was surrounded by the crowd and couldn't get away for a while, so two nannies came forward and pulled the child aside.

Fang Shimian drank a little too much sparkling water, so this time he went to the bathroom with a special waiter to lead the way. When Fang Shimian came out after taking care of himself, he didn't see Zhu Ze, so he prepared to get two more snacks.

Just as he was struggling with those desserts that he couldn't name, he heard voices not far away. Fang Shimian looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the child who was in the center of the banquet just now had run over here at some point.

One of the older nannies was whispering to the child, "Miss, don't go there. It's dangerous there. Can we just watch over here?"

Another nanny brought some snacks from the kitchen that were easy for children to digest. The snacks were very delicately made, with lifelike images of various animals and even the most popular cartoon characters.

Fang Shimian stared at the plate of pastries. He was originally still wondering what danger there might be here, but now he only thought that these pastries must be delicious, a hundred times more delicious than those just now.

A thousand times, ten thousand times.

The older nanny let go of the child, stood up and took the cake from the other nanny, "Miss, eat this, your favorite...Miss! Miss, come back soon!"

Fang Shimian was still unprepared for the situation until he heard the nanny's scream and saw that the child was stumbling and rushing towards the high decorative champagne tower like a calf. Perhaps the child who had just learned to walk could not control his strength, and he actually pulled off the fabric underneath the champagne tower.

The nanny screamed heartbreakingly.

Fang Shimian looked up blankly at the champagne tower that was about to collapse, and almost subconsciously rushed over to protect the child under him.

The wine glass hit Fang Shimian's head and back. The refrigerated wine soaked his back. Some of the broken wine glasses splashed the glass. Screams and shouts were heard one after another in his ears, and the child in his arms was frightened and burst into tears.

Until the sound of breaking glass stopped, the crowd rushed forward. The child in the arms was held by the young couple and comforted softly. Even the respected old man who had spoken at the beginning of the banquet and his wife heard the news and hurried over, looking at their little granddaughter with heartache on their faces.

Fang Shimian looked at the warm scene in confusion. He was quickly surrounded by people, who helped him wipe his wet hair and persuaded him to change into clean clothes.

But he seemed to be unable to hear the voices around him all of a sudden. He only felt an overwhelming sadness drowning him and about to suffocate him.

"Xiao Mian?" Zhu Ze lifted Fang Shimian's face and forced him to look at him. "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Fang Shimian finally came to his senses and looked at the crowd gathered around him. He was thankful that the wine had covered his tears. He suddenly felt dizzy and said immediately, "I'm fine. It's okay. Don't worry about me."

This is the old man and eldest son of the Shen family, Shen Jiang, who also came over. Seeing that the wound on Fang Shimian's hand was bleeding, Shen Jiang quickly called the family doctor over, with gratitude and apology in his eyes, "Sir, go upstairs and let the doctor check if there are any other wounds."

Fang Shimian actually just wanted to run away quickly, but Zhu Ze had already agreed. He nodded to Shen Jiang and said, "Thank you, Mr. Shen."

Fang Shimen had no choice but to be escorted upstairs in full view of everyone.

He first went to the bathroom in the suite to wash his hair and take a shower. After washing, he found that there were several bleeding spots on his hands and ankles, but they were not deep or serious.

Mr. Shen was helped back to his room by the servant to rest. Shen Jiang, Zhu Ze and two family doctors were waiting for Fang Shimian in the living room outside the suite.

After Chen Jiang knew that Fang Shimian was the younger brother that Zhu Ze brought with him today, he expressed his gratitude again with a look of shame on his face. When he heard Zhu Ze mentioned that Fang Shimian did not have a formal job now, he immediately invited Fang Shimian to join Maoshu Group.

Just at this time, Fang Shimian finished cleaning and came out of the bathroom. His original set of clothes was taken away by Chen Jiang's assistant. According to the size, he asked the brand to send it as soon as possible. The style was slightly changed, but the rest was not much different from before.

There was a servant waiting outside the bathroom door. When they saw Fang Shimian come out, they dried his hair and gave him a careful head massage. Fang Shimian was extremely uncomfortable and kept hiding to the side during the massage. The servant stopped the process and took Fang Shimian out after his hair was dried.

Chen Jiang stood up, and two doctors immediately came forward to check and treat Fang Shimian's other injuries. Fang Shimian waved his hands repeatedly: "I've checked, there are no serious injuries, no need to treat them."

"Mr. Fang, please ask them to check it out. This time it was really our negligence. You have done a favor to my daughter. If you have any requests, as long as the Shen family can do it, just ask."

Shen Jiang was indeed grateful to Fang Shimian. There were many close relatives of the Shen family at the banquet, but they all had their own plans, and no one would take such a big risk to protect a child.

Those sharp glasses have no eyes, but you are lucky if they only scratch your hands and feet. If they scratch your face and neck that are not covered by clothes... The higher you stand, the more you will understand that a gentleman does not stand on a dangerous wall.

Seeing Fang Shimian at a loss and repeatedly rejecting Shen Jiang's kindness, Zhu Ze said to Shen Jiang: "My brother is shy and doesn't like to see people. If he says something wrong, please don't blame me, Master Jiang."

"What can I say to Mr. Zhu? I don't even have time to thank you, let alone say anything else..."

After hearing what Zhu Ze said, Fang Shimian's eyes were filled with confusion. He lowered his head again and allowed the two doctors to take him to the next room to treat his wounds.

"There are only these few spots. There are really no spots elsewhere." Fang Shimian held down his trouser legs to prevent the doctor from lifting them up for examination. He spoke in a low voice, as if he was afraid of disturbing others. "I've checked. The rest of the places are fine."

The two doctors looked at each other and decided not to insist. After all, their mission was accomplished.

Fang Shimian didn't really want to go back to the room where Zhu Ze was, so he waited for the two doctors to pack up their tools and immediately asked, "Can I rest here for a while before going over? I won't run around."

The doctor smiled at him, "Sir, you are free."

Fang Shimian nodded, sent the two doctors away, and then closed the door.

Instead of contaminating the spotless sofa in the spacious room, he walked towards the large terrace outside the room. There were no lights on outside and it was very dark.

Fang Shimian fumbled to turn on a small light by himself. He squatted next to the light, took out his cell phone and called Xu Long.

Xu Long answered immediately, in a very impatient tone, "What?"

"Brother Long, I'm full. I won't go to your house to cook instant noodles today." Fang Shimian buried his head between his knees, his voice muffled.

Xu Long paused for a few seconds and said, "Don't you know to eat less, stupid?"

"...Come on, I've been eating sweet food today and I want something spicy." Fang Shimian stood up slowly, walked to the edge of the terrace, put his elbows on the edge of the guardrail, and stuck his head out. There was a forest below, and the wind rustled the leaves.

"You eat so much meat that it's all growing on me." Xu Long sounded a little depressed.

Fang Shimian heard the sound of a lighter and spoke cheerfully. He stood on tiptoe, half of his body was leaning out of the terrace, and said with a smile: "If you smoke less, you won't get fat."

"What? I didn't smoke today. You are wrongly accusing me."

Fang Shimian smiled, the wind blew up his clothes, revealing a slender, snow-white waist.

The strong wind seemed to blow away all the annoyance. "Haha, you're lying. I can smell smoke..."

"Are you stupid?" Xu Long thought Fang Shimian was teasing him, so he hung up the phone cursing.

Something isn't right. Why is there a smell when he's smoking on the other side of the phone?

Fang Shimian's brain froze for a moment. He even saw white mist under the dim light of the small desk lamp, and subconsciously looked towards the source of the mist.

In the middle of the dark terrace next door, a scarlet fire flickered, motionlessly demonstrating its presence.

It was obvious that someone had been sitting next door at some point, but the lights there were not on, and even the lights in the room were not on, so it was really hard to notice.

With the small table lamp on the terrace and the cigarette butt, Fang Shimian could vaguely see the black outline of a tall figure, sometimes appearing and sometimes blending into the darkness.

Like a ferocious beast lurking in the dark, it is watching leisurely and lazily to see if its prey under the light is behaving well.
