“The place where deep affection couldn’t reach had long been entered by someone driving a Maybach.”
After realizing he was just a backup option, Xia Tian hardened his heart and stopped believ...
Chapter 459: Just the boy I'm thinking about, not my boy
Feeling Shen Gaofeng's oppressive gaze, Xia Tian's eyes moved, and he couldn't help feeling confused.
"I didn't do anything, why are you looking at me like I'm being interrogated?"
Xia Tian muttered to himself but kept a smile on his face.
Shen Lexi obviously noticed this, she frowned slightly, coughed lightly and said:
"Dad, why are you back?"
"You kid, does your dad need a reason to come home..."
Only then did Shen Gaofeng retract his sharp gaze and responded to Shen Lexi with a smile.
"Oh...then you go and do your thing. After dinner, I will send my friends back. They have been playing in Hanzhong for several days."
"I see. Dad just hasn't eaten yet, so I won't ask the chef to make it again... Do you mind if I eat with you?"
Shen Gaofeng looked at Lu Xi, Ye Ningyu and others with a smile.
Before Shen Lexi could speak, Lu Xi nodded heavily: “Of course I don’t mind!”
Shen Lexi looked at Shen Gaofeng with unpredictable eyes. She was very resistant to sitting at the same table with Shen Gaofeng to eat.
Especially when your good friends are around.
But Shen Gaofeng simply ignored Shen Lexi's dissatisfied expression, called the servant to add a chair, and sat next to Xia Tian and Fang Yu.
The atmosphere at the dinner table did not become heavy because of Shen Gaofeng's joining.
Because Shen Gaofeng kept asking Ye Ningyu and Lu Xi with a smile about what was happening at school for Shen Lexi.
"Xiaolu, is our Xixi active in class at school? I heard that many students in college like to skip classes.
My daughter Xixi has never liked studying. If I hadn’t hired a tutor to give her extra lessons, she would have gone out to play somewhere else. ”
"Xiao Ye, you are from Sichuan and Chongqing, right? Xixi went back to her hometown with you during the National Day holiday, I'm really sorry to bother you.
It’s my uncle who didn’t know about this time. Next time you come to Hanzhong, please tell me in advance and I will personally take you to the attractions here. ”
Luxi has a lively personality and responded to Shen Gaofeng with a smile.
Xiao Ye's face flushed slightly and she said softly, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not a trouble, not a trouble."
After a pause, Shen Gaofeng turned his head to look at Xia Tian, and the smile on his face faded.
Xia Tian was eating and was startled by Shen Gaofeng’s look.
He felt something was wrong from just now.
Now Shen Gaofeng looked at him with the same eyes again.
Shen Lexi, who was sitting opposite Shen Gaofeng, saw this scene, her eyes condensed, and she immediately stretched out her leg and kicked Shen Gaofeng under the table.
When Shen Gaofeng looked at her, she glared at him fiercely.
There was a warning in his eyes.
However, Shen Gaofeng only glanced at him calmly, and then continued to look at Xia Tian:
"Summer...Summer right?"
"Yes uncle, just call me Xiaotian."
"I recognized you from the cocktail party for Bei'an's business elites."
After hearing this, Xia Tian suddenly understood.
No wonder Shen Gaofeng had been looking at him with such a scrutinizing gaze since he saw him.
When Xia Tian and Jiang Jianwei went to a cocktail party, Shen Gaofeng was also there and met him once.
So, at first Shen Gaofeng probably thought he looked familiar and kept wondering where he had seen him before.
Shen Gaofeng smiled and continued, "Are you starting your own business in school?"
“Yes, I created my own milk tea brand.”
"Tea language?"
Xia Tian was quite shocked to hear the word "tea language" from Shen Gaofeng's mouth.
He had never expected that a brand of the size of Chayu would be known by a big shot like Shen Gaofeng?
Seeing Xia Tian’s shocked expression, Shen Gaofeng continued: “I am involved in many industries, so I pay more attention to some new companies and brands in the province. This is what I heard from my secretary some time ago.
When I learned that the brand 'Cha Yu' was founded by a college student, I felt that the boss of 'Cha Yu' was young and promising. I didn't expect such a coincidence that you are Xixi's good friend. ”
Xia Tian nodded, there was nothing wrong with this explanation.
At this time, Shen Gaofeng seemed to say something.
Shen Lexi knocked on the bowl with chopsticks, her tone very dissatisfied:
"dad!"
"It's fine that you always talk about work, but now you're at home, in front of my friends, and you're still talking about work? If you think this meal is not delicious, ask the chef to make it for you again later, don't ruin our atmosphere!"
In the eyes of others, Shen Lexi was dissatisfied with Shen Gaofeng for always talking about work.
But only Shen Lexi herself knew that her father was deliberately talking to Xia Tian in order to get to know him better.
Shen Gaofeng saw that his daughter was a little angry, so he stopped her quickly.
"Xixi, you are too sensitive. Dad just wants to know more about your good friend. Xia Tian is starting a business, and Dad has the ability to help in this regard. Of course, I will see if there is any chance to help him."
Shen Lexi snorted coldly, ignored Shen Gaofeng, and just turned to Xia Tian and said, “Xia Tian, don’t pay attention to him, he is just an out-and-out businessman!
If you let him help you, be careful that your Chayu might be swallowed up by him. How can you marry Xiaoyu afterwards? ”
When Xiao Ye heard this, her face turned red: "Le Xi..."
Hearing this, Shen Gaofeng laughed: "Hahaha, okay, okay, Dad won't say anything more, eat quickly, eat quickly."
After finishing the meal, Chen Lexi saw Xia Tian and the others off.
At the highway intersection, Shen Lexi hugged Ye Ningyu and Lu Xi reluctantly:
"Xiaoyu, Xiaolu, I really can't bear to leave you..."
"It's okay Lexi, school will start soon and we can see each other every day."
Ye Ningyu smiled sweetly at Shen Lexi.
Lu Xi also nodded: "Yes, yes, maybe in a few days, you can come back to Bei'an in advance and we can go shopping together!"
"Okay, I'll go home and lie to my dad and tell him that we started school early!"
The three girls talked for a while before reluctantly parting.
Xia Tian drove the three of them on the highway back to Bei'an.
Chen Lexi looked at Xia Tian's car as it left, feeling lost.
........
"Send Xia Tian and the others away?"
Shen Gaofeng was sitting on the sofa, and when he saw his daughter coming back, he asked.
"Leave."
Shen Lexi said expressionlessly, she wanted to go back to the room directly, but was stopped by Shen Gaofeng.
"Xixi, Dad finally got to meet the boy you've been dreaming about today."
"So what? He's just the boy of my heart, not my boy."
Shen Gaofeng's eyes twitched, and he continued, "Dad has done what he promised you, so shouldn't you also fulfill what you promised Dad?"
"I'm back for the New Year, right?"
"Not just for the Chinese New Year, you have to go home for every holiday in the future, and also... slowly learn about Dad's company. You are my only daughter, and in a few years, the company will definitely be handed over to you."
Chen Gaofeng no longer had the majestic demeanor he usually had in the business world. All he had was a father who hoped his daughter would come home more often.
Shen Lexi hesitated for a moment, said lightly, "I know", and turned to go upstairs.
