Chapter 555: The old house caught fire when the Red Luan star moved
Shen Xuanzhi's hands clenched and fell at his sides, and there was an indescribable uneasiness in his heart.
Finally, he bit the tip of his tongue and said in a somewhat unkind tone, "You and I have no friendship, let alone know you. There is probably nothing to talk about between us. Sorry."
After he said this, he turned and went into the hotel.
But when he thought about the hotel manager calling this man Mr. Xie, Shen Xuanzhi roughly guessed his identity.
The fifth aristocratic family in the imperial capital, the eldest son of the Xie family.
Xie Xubai.
It is rumored that the Xie family has a clean and upright character, the men are very principled, and there has never been a precedent of infidelity or domestic violence.
This is the family tradition, and we believe that family harmony will bring prosperity.
Many noble ladies wanted to marry into the Xie family, but Xie Xubai was thirty years old and still had no romantic partner. He had never had a confidante, let alone a marriage partner.
Shen Xuanzhi noticed his special feelings for Huo Sijiao.
…
Xie Xubai looked at Shen Xuanzhi's departing figure and said in a gentle voice, "Take good care of Miss Huo tonight. She won't feel well after a hangover. Prepare some light and easily digestible breakfast tomorrow morning. Ask her if she has any other needs. We will satisfy them all."
She seemed to be in a bad mood, otherwise she wouldn't have fallen asleep with tears on her eyes.
"Okay, Mr. Xie." The lobby manager asked tentatively, "Do you need to explain to Miss Huo that this is your order?"
Xie Xubai's face was as white as jade, and his eyes fell on Huo Sijiao who was being supported at the side. "No need. This is the hotel's special treatment for VIP guests in the presidential suite. This standard will be used from now on."
"OK."
The manager nodded.
"I'm leaving now. I hope the issues raised today regarding the hotel's rectification will be resolved by the time I next come for an inspection."
"Yes, Mr. Xie."
Xie Xubai left the hotel with his assistant and got into the car.
The courageous Special Assistant Ning, sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but ask, "Boss Xie, what question did you want to ask that guy just now? I saw him almost run away."
Special Assistant Ning and Xie Xubai are college classmates, and they don't usually have many rules or regulations when talking to each other.
"I didn't want to ask anything."
Xie Xubai's gaze fell outside the car window, the neon lights at night were bright and dazzling.
"That guy obviously has feelings for Miss Huo, and Miss Huo likes him too. It seems that the daughter-in-law that the Xie family is about to get is about to fly away. After the New Year, you will be 31 years old, and your mother will have to arrange a blind date banquet again."
Special Assistant Ning said with great emotion.
Xie Xubai's brows were covered with a faint smile: "Everything depends on fate. You are the same age as me, so you don't have to worry."
Special Assistant Ning laughed and said, "No one in my family is pushing me to do this, and I've dedicated my entire life to my career. But some people say that everything is up to fate, but their true colors are finally showing."
If Xie Xubai is a fox, he is an elegant and noble white fox.
"Mr. Xie, if you really want to go with the flow, why did you arrange for someone to look after Miss Huo tonight? Aren't you worried about what might happen to young men and women when they're impulsive? It's easiest to lose control when drunk. If you send someone to look after her, you've eliminated that possibility."
Assistant Ning has been with him for a long time and knows his style of doing things.
Xie Xubai's brows widened, but he didn't deny it. He spoke gently, "People should be sober and responsible for their own choices, instead of being confused by alcohol and regretting it for the rest of their lives."
Special Assistant Ning smiled and said, "I hope you can always remain sober and calm, and don't let me see the old house on fire and the day when I get emotionally impulsive."
Xie Xubai glanced at him and didn't respond. Instead, he said, "Keep an eye on the Xiang family's movements. Xiang Mingzhu caused such a scene, and Xiang Hai was secretly admitted to the hospital for emergency treatment. We don't know what the situation is at the moment, but if Xiang Hai's health can't hold up, shareholders will lose confidence in the Xiang family."
"Yes, I know. I've already sent people to stake out the hospital, but the Xiang Group is in the pharmaceutical business and is very tight-lipped about this. I'm afraid it's going to be difficult to get firsthand information. I hope Mr. Huo can be more helpful."
Xie Xubai leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes slightly and said, "Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing."
He and the Huo family had been planning for a long time, all in order to make the Xie family leap forward in the selection of the four major families.
Special Assistant Ning laughed. "I remember you told your family back then that you'd build your career first and then start a family. Now that the favorable wind has arrived, how can you avoid the blind date?"
Even descendants of such a big family still have to face pressure to get married!
…
the next day.
Qiao Xi woke up on the big bed in the villa. Nothing substantial happened between them last night.
Huo Xingzhou wasn't that demanding. Her arm was burned and needed to be healed. When she and Grandpa Cheng were in the countryside, they had read ancient books and made many strange things.
Among them is a beauty recipe called Yuji Cream, which can remove scars and whiten the skin.
I can give it a try when my injury gets better.
If it really leaves a scar, then so be it.
Qiao Xi slept very comfortably. After the needle test meeting, all the tension in her body seemed to relax. She had no dreams all night and looked very healthy when she woke up.
The bed next to him had been empty for a long time, and Huo Xingzhou didn't know when he got up.
After a quick wash, Qiao Xi went downstairs.
Xiao Yuan was cleaning and said, "Madam, you're up now. What would you like to eat?"
It was already ten o'clock and we were having brunch.
"Just keep it simple. What about the others?"
"The young master is in his study holding an overseas video conference. As for Young Master Sun and Old Uncle Chen, they were both drunk last night and haven't gotten up yet. I think they'll just have to rush to eat lunch."
Xiaoyuan said with a smile, her round face was pretty and kind.
Qiao Xi nodded: "Then let them sleep."
"Well, Madam, I'll go make you something to eat right now. There's a lot of ready-made noodles in the refrigerator. I'll make you a bowl of plain noodles."
"good."
Qiao Xi wandered into the living room and turned on the TV out of boredom.
She sat on the soft sofa, and the TV was playing the local channel.
It was a morning interview on a certain section of the Capital TV station, and the woman’s face on the screen looked very familiar.
It’s Lu Yingxue!
She dressed simply but the details highlighted her figure.
Lu Yingxue's fame in the imperial capital is comparable to that of a movie star. As a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, she is regarded as the savior of suffering, and her die-hard fans believe in her and defend her as if they have been brainwashed.
Even if they failed in the needle trial yesterday, they could find a hundred reasons for Lu Yingxue.
This time, Lu Yingxue accepted a public interview on the second day of the needle trial conference, which attracted a lot of attention.
The number of viewers instantly reached hundreds of thousands.
Qiao Xi didn't change the channel, but watched Lu Yingxue's interview while drinking warm water on an empty stomach.
The host happened to ask why Lu Yingxue had an argument with Xiang Mingzhu at the needle trial meeting.
This is something that many people are paying attention to.
There seems to be some irreconcilable conflict between these two cousins!
Qiao Xi held the water cup in both hands, waiting to see what Lu Yingxue would say.
