Chapter 58 Sister, Big Brother Was Looking at You Just Now
At some point, the exhibition hall began to become quieter.
The children seemed to have sensed the subtle change in the atmosphere. They had been talking and asking questions at once, but suddenly became quiet. A little girl gently pulled Jiang Zhiyue's hand, blinked her big round eyes a few times, and suddenly covered her mouth and said, "Sister, that big brother is looking at you!"
Jiang Zhiyue asked Mu Liansheng who she needed an interpreter for, and Mu Liansheng replied that it was a simple businessman, and someone would arrange it when the time came.
She saw in the news that the heir of the Xiao family would accompany foreign guests to the Xie Sheli International Center at the weekend, but she never expected that the businessman Mu Liansheng was talking about would be him.
Xiao Jingrun has a prominent status, so he is always accompanied by bodyguards whenever he travels, and wherever he goes, the place must be cleared in advance.
He is a representative of the top ruling class.
The light in the exhibition hall was a little dim, and a cold air blew in my face, with a gust of wind coming from nowhere.
The light in front of her eyes seemed to flicker, and Jiang Zhiyue saw Xiao Jingrun, who was wearing an expensive high-end suit, standing calmly in the center of the exhibition hall. A beam of light shone through the skylight above his head, making his eyebrows and eyes look even more elegant, making him unforgettable.
Wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, light poured into his eyes through the lenses, making his dark eyes look deep and bright, with a faint smile.
"Mr. Xiao, this painting is really nice." A foreign man said excitedly, pointing at a painting behind Jiang Zhiyue.
Xiao Jingrun stared at Jiang Zhiyue, not knowing whether he was looking at her or looking through her at the picture of worshiping Buddha.
Jiang Zhiyue realized that she was blocking the road and hurriedly took the little girl's hand to avoid them.
The little girl covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "Sister, big brother was looking at you just now."
"......"
It was so embarrassing that Jiang Zhiyue couldn't help but tighten her grip on the little girl's hand.
Xiao Jingrun passed by her and stood diagonally in front of her. Jiang Zhiyue stepped back again without leaving a trace and even looked towards the exit of the exhibition hall. She found that the door was locked and there were several plainclothes bodyguards wearing headsets standing there.
A man stands in front of a statue of a Buddha worshipping his Buddha.
The handsome face was facing the statue of Bodhisattva.
With his unique and noble temperament, he seems to be separated from everyone else by a clear dividing line.
At this time, the follower whispered something to him. Xiao Jingrun pondered for a while and frowned slightly.
"What a coincidence, do you know Lici language?"
"......" Jiang Zhiyue didn't expect the man's gaze towards her to almost see through everything.
"The translator who was traveling with us encountered an accident outside, and we are unable to contact her for the time being. You are a student of Wharton College, and the selection of special admissions is extremely strict, which includes the assessment of Lizi language ability."
"If you can pass the exam, it means you can do it."
He knows her.
Jiang Zhiyue showed an expression of surprise on her face. He smiled gently and didn't say much. The entourage around him winked at Jiang Zhiyue, motioning her to come forward.
Several foreigners were well-dressed and their excitement was evident in their expressions. They were particularly interested in Brandenburg's Buddhist culture and kept exclaiming in amazement as they walked around the temples and paintings of Buddha.
Jiang Zhiyue listened to their conversation attentively and translated it to Xiao Jingrun in real time. By chance, she looked into the man's smiling eyes. For some reason, she thought that Xiao Jingrun could understand it all and did not need her translation at all.
But Xiao Jingrun listened to her every word very seriously, and the eyes hidden behind the lenses curved into an arc when he smiled.
He has a nice voice and speaks neither hurriedly nor slowly, without any air of superiority or arrogance.
The elegance and indifference that emanates from the inside out gives people the illusion that he is very approachable. He doesn't mind children playing around in the exhibition hall. When a little girl sweetly calls him "big brother", he just smiles and rubs the child's head.
His entourage followed closely behind. The topic Xiao Jingrun discussed with foreigners revolved around trade. Brandenburg opened three seaports, providing great convenience for foreign traders, and the other party had to give Brandenburg the same preferential policies.
However, the conversation did not go into depth, as the main purpose of the trip was to visit the art exhibition and appreciate antiques.
After this exchange, Jiang Zhiyue kept up with the speed and rhythm of both parties. She translated every word accurately. In just three hours, she received praise from the other party, "Such a young translator, it seems like you have lived and grown up in our country. You are very familiar with our language, very good."
"How many years have you learned Lici language?" someone asked with a smile.
Jiang Zhiyue said calmly, "Five years."
"But your pronunciation sounds like someone who grew up in our country," a foreign woman praised.
Jiang Zhiyue was stunned. She really didn't expect to be an interpreter for Xiao Jingrun. In the original plot, Xiao Jingrun and Mu Liansheng didn't even have any intersection. One was a career-oriented ambitious man, and the other was a playboy who didn't do his job properly. They were in the same class, but seemed to be from two different worlds. What about her?
Mu Liansheng deliberately let her appear in front of Xiao Jingrun, he must have some purpose.
She lowered her head, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and in the dim light, anyone could see that she was reserved.
Xiao Jingrun was tall and straight, much taller than the girl. He lowered his eyes to look at her and saw that her long eyelashes cast a shadow on her eyelids. His voice was very soft and slow, "You did very well, don't be nervous."
"......" Jiang Zhiyue was stunned for a moment, then raised her head again.
There is a very unreal illusion, as if reality and dreams are reversed, Xiao Jingrun represents the reality, and Mu Liansheng represents the dream. Reality is clear, and dreams are terrible, and one desperately wants to escape from them.
The man looked gentle and asked gently, "You look nervous?"
Jiang Zhiyue bit her lip unconsciously. Xiao Jingrun was not the male protagonist, so she didn't have to worry about being killed by him, but... she would always feel uneasy about herself breaking into their world.
Xiao Jingrun seemed to see her rejection, and turned to talk to a few foreigners. In the second half, he no longer needed Jiang Zhiyue, so he ordered his followers to send her out.
The sky was clear and sunny when I went out, but in a blink of an eye it was covered with dark clouds again and a heavy rainstorm was about to come.
Jiang Zhiyue looked up, opened her backpack and rummaged through it, only to find that she had left her umbrella behind.
At this time, the attendant who had left came back and handed over an umbrella, saying with a smile: "Miss Jiang, our young master said that it might rain soon, so he asked me to come back and bring you an umbrella."
"Master praised your translation work. Miss Jiang is so young and yet she is so capable."
"And your bank account number. Remember to send it to me and I will have someone settle your payment."
