The lights are coming on.
Mrs. Chen, adorned with jewels and precious stones, entertained the guests with a smile on her face.
When she saw the person coming to the door, her eyes lit up and she quickly went to greet him: "Boss Sheng, you are finally here!"
As she spoke, she kept looking behind Sheng Huai: "Where's Mrs. Sheng?"
"She's not feeling well. Come visit her another day."
Sheng Huai behaved like a gentleman, explaining with a slight smile in the corner of his eyes.
Sheng Huai felt very happy with the way she addressed Su Yun.
As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Chen's smile instantly disappeared, and her tone became much colder: "Then welcome, Mr. Sheng, have fun tonight."
Gentleman Sheng Huai nodded and walked into the inner hall with his long legs.
Before I reached the door, a cold voice came from behind me.
"Mr. Sheng."
He turned around and saw Yun Qishan standing in the crowd raising his glass to him.
Yun Qishan was dressed very simply tonight, in a silk ankle-length skirt, with her long hair hanging naturally, and an imperial jade bracelet on her wrist that looked very expensive.
He took the wine glass from the waiter's tray and walked over.
"This is probably the first time that Teacher Yun has attended a dinner party since returning to China."
Yun Qishan clinked glasses with him elegantly: "Not bad, I would also like to thank Mr. Sheng for the recommendation this time. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."
"Where's Mrs. Sheng?"
"My wife is not feeling well. She will rest at home tonight."
"Why can't she take care of herself?"
Yun Qishan frowned, a trace of worry on his face: "Is she okay?"
"nothing……"
Sheng Huai was stunned: "Teacher Yun knows my wife?"
"Ah... No, I just suddenly thought of something else."
She came back to her senses and explained with a smile, quickly changing the subject: "Let's go over there, Mr. Chen is waiting."
Halfway through the dinner, Mr. Chen, a suburban land developer, had reached a consensus with Yun Qishan.
There was a little more smile on her cold face.
Figures began to sway on the dance floor.
Sheng Huai didn't want to stay here for long, so he exchanged a few words and quickly prepared to leave.
Yun Qishan walked out with him slowly.
"Mr. Sheng, I would like to thank you for your help in this cooperation between me and Mr. Chen."
Sheng Huai said indifferently: "You're welcome, we all just get what we need."
Yun Qishan understood what he meant.
"That ginger..."
She narrowed her beautiful eyes and thought for a few seconds.
"Miss Jiang, right?"
"I will give her a suitable arrangement."
Sheng Huai nodded without comment.
The two walked out of the villa one after the other.
A shrill female voice came over.
"Let me in! I'm Mr. Sheng's friend, why don't you let me in?!"
"If Ah Huai knew that you guys bullied me, you'd all be in big trouble!"
"Don't stop me...let go!"
At the gate of the carved villa, Jiang Zhi angrily put his hands on his hips and yelled at the housekeeper at the door.
When she saw the tall figure appear at the door, her eyes lit up.
"Ahuai, I finally waited for you..."
"Who asked you to come?"
Sheng Huai frowned and moved to the side to avoid her hand that was reaching up to him.
"My friend said he saw you at the Chen residence, and I happened to be passing by..."
Jiang Zhi blinked her eyes in a cute manner, completely different from the wild and vulgar attitude she had just had.
"I didn't expect Miss Jiang to come too."
Yun Qishan watched this farce at the door. He glanced at Jiang Zhi, who was wearing a pink gauze skirt with a big pink bow on her head, and said with a faint smile: "Miss Jiang really has good taste."
Being suddenly praised by her idol, Jiang Zhi was so excited that she couldn't control her throat, and her delicate voice became rough.
"Really!"
"I spent a long time dressing up."
"Oh? Didn't Miss Jiang just say she was just passing by?"
Yun Qishan smiled playfully.
Jiang Zhi's face changed.
Yun Qishan glanced at her, nodded gracefully to Sheng Huai, turned around and got into the nanny car behind him.
In the car, assistant Yuxuan looked depressed.
"Teacher, do you really have to have this thing? Compared with Sister Su Yun, she is totally different..."
Yun Qishan lit up a slender ladies' cigarette and smoked it elegantly.
"You think it's easy to take over that piece of land? Have you forgotten the purpose of returning to China?!"
"It's just a simple task, and it can be considered as a favor to Sheng Huai."
Yuxuan looked out the window gloomily: "This is unfair to Sister Su Yun."
"I know... but there is no such thing as fairness. Outsiders see us as artists who are not dependent on other people's worldly affairs, but art is often the most deeply entangled with interests."
Yun Qishan said calmly: "You will understand later..."
"Um."
"I really hope I never understand."
Putting out the cigarette, patting Yuxuan on the shoulder, Yun Qishan smiled meaningfully: "Then you will starve to death."
…
At the gate of Chen Mansion.
Jiang Zhi moved closer to Sheng Huai in a delicate manner.
"Ahuai, let's go eat, okay? We haven't eaten together for a long time."
"I'm busy."
Sheng Huai strode towards the car.
"Ah Huai... do you hate me?"
Jiang Zhi rushed over and hugged him tightly, and began to cry pitifully.
The entire scene was captured by a camera not far away.
Shaking off her hand, Sheng Huai got into the car without looking back.
The driver in the car couldn't wait any longer and stepped on the accelerator and disappeared at the intersection.
The smile on Jiang Zhi's face disappeared instantly. She clenched her palms and gritted her teeth, cursing the person who sent her a message in the afternoon.
The text message clearly told her to dress up beautifully and wait at the door of Chen’s villa.
But Sheng Huai hardly even looked at her!
They are all liars!
Reluctantly, she called Sheng Huai's cell phone again and sent him several voice messages in a crying voice.
However, there was no response.
…
The streetscape keeps going backwards.
Sheng Huai sat in the car and kept checking his phone.
For the whole day, Su Yun didn't call or even send a text message.
Instead, Jiang Zhi sent him several voice messages, which annoyed him so much that he almost blocked her.
For some reason, he always felt that Jiang Zhi now was different from the weak and helpless little woman she used to be.
But no matter what, it was she who saved my life abroad that year.
Sheng Huai narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Yun's profile picture on the screen.
She wore a floral dress, had fluffy pigtails, and smiled sweetly at the camera.
It seems that she has not changed this avatar since she got married.
As he stared at it, Sheng Huai couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Mr. Sheng."
"Are you all right?"
The driver in the front seat was trembling with fear.
The usually serious and aloof president laughed out loud while sitting in the back seat late at night.
Anyone would be shocked.
"Drive your car."
"I'm sorry, I spoke too much."
The driver apologized cautiously and secretly glanced at the president's expression in the rearview mirror.
Still as cold as an iceberg as always.
He even suspected that he was hallucinating.
Closing his phone and looking at the increasingly familiar scenery outside the window, Sheng Huai's mood became better and better.
Although it was close to midnight, she was definitely not asleep yet.
In the past, whenever she had a social event, she would personally prepare a midnight snack for her no matter how late it was.
Please do her a favor and have something to eat with her tonight.
The Rolls-Royce turned the corner and drove steadily into the gate of the villa covered with roses.
Sheng Huai couldn't wait and got out of the car at the gate.
Quickly went up to the second floor.
