Chapter 45: The sight stayed on the two people's clasped hands
After Cheng Mi finished speaking, he glanced at the man pouring the tea, leaned close to Qi Xiuxu's ear and whispered something.
Qi Xiuxu nodded, and Cheng Mi lowered his eyes and retreated.
Miao Chuheng, the eldest son of the Miao family, handed the tea to Qi Xiuxu with both hands and smiled gently, "Thank you, Mr. Qi, for honoring me with the honor of coming to my sister's birthday party."
Qi Xiuxu calmly took the teacup and sipped the tea carefully.
Yunsheng Group recently had a big cooperation with the Miao family. The two families had a pretty harmonious relationship. It was rare for the Miao family to hold a banquet, so Qi Xiuxu came to give them face this time.
Miao Chuheng didn't care that Qi Xiuxu didn't respond, and suggested with a tactful look, "Since this is Mr. Qi's first time here, why don't I show him around?"
"Yeah." Qi Xiuxu replied calmly, and the two of them left the study.
The two took the elevator downstairs and quietly arrived at the first floor. Cheng Mi followed behind them not far away.
Miao Chuheng was just about to take people to the garden that he had spent a huge amount of money to build when he heard a commotion coming from the door.
The two looked towards the door and saw a girl with outstanding temperament walking into the banquet hall. Her delicate and beautiful face had a pair of sharp and charming peach blossom eyes. Many people were amazed by her appearance and began to whisper to each other.
The person who came was Ji Jinhe.
Miao Sitian knew the company's mysterious gold medal agent. They had had several friendly meetings, but she didn't expect that the agent would really invite him this time.
While Miao Sitian was talking to Ji Jinhe, Miao Chuheng looked at Qi Xiuxu. Seeing that his gaze lingered on Ji Jinhe for a long time, he thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Qi, do you know the woman next to my sister?"
Qi Xiuxu withdrew his gaze from Ji Jinhe and did not deny it.
Miao Chuheng gave Ji Jinhe a meaningful look, then respectfully welcomed Qi Xiuxu to the garden.
Miao Sitian was the protagonist today and had to entertain many people. She gave Ji Jinhe an apologetic smile and then went to receive the rest of the people.
When Yu Cheng saw that Ji Jinhe was alone, he hurried over to serve the young lady.
As Miao Sitian’s former employer and with a high status in the entertainment industry, Jiasui Entertainment was naturally among the invitees.
Ji Jinhe was not surprised to see him here. She took the champagne from Yu Cheng's hands and shook it gracefully.
When the people around saw Ji Jinhe and Yu Cheng together, they realized that they knew each other. The boss who had dealt with Yu Cheng on a daily basis came forward to test the waters.
"Mr. Yu, long time no see." The man in the gray suit clinked glasses with Yu Cheng, then shifted his gaze to Ji Jinhe's calm face, "This is..."
Yu Cheng was not sure about Ji Jinhe's purpose in attending the banquet, and did not dare to respond to her identity without authorization. He could only look at her for help.
Ji Jinhe gently clinked the goblet in front of her and said, "Ji Jinhe from Jiasui Entertainment."
The man in the gray suit had never heard of this name and was about to respond awkwardly when Yu Cheng beside him said with a sigh of relief, "Chu Jin's agent."
The man in the gray suit suddenly turned his head to look at Ji Jinhe, a bright smile on his face, "I've heard a lot about you! I've heard a lot about you!"
Who in the entertainment industry doesn't know Chu Jin's agent? He holds countless resources in his hands, and even a little bit of it can make a 38th-tier supporting actor into a movie star.
Although the rumors were exaggerated, the resources Chu Jin had obtained were obvious to all.
The man in the gray suit kept complimenting Ji Jinhe and praised her to the skies. Yu Cheng couldn't help wiping his sweat while listening to him.
As if his mouth was dry from talking, the man in the gray suit raised his head and drank the champagne in his hand, then said to Ji Jinhe, "Miss Ji, it's been a pleasure talking to you today. Why don't we add each other's contact information and make friends?"
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, but Ji Jinhe's temper is really hard to guess. Yu Cheng was frightened when he saw Ji Jinhe's expressionless face, fearing that she would say something shocking.
Just when Yu Cheng was thinking about how to give people a reasonable explanation without revealing Ji Jinhe's identity, Ji Jinhe smiled faintly and took out his mobile phone to scan the code with someone.
Huh?
Yu Cheng looked at the two people's actions in surprise. Why didn't Miss Ji look like Miss Ji today?
After scanning the code, the man in the gray suit wanted to say something when a waiter came over and interrupted their conversation.
"Miss," the waiter bowed slightly, "a gentleman named Qi would like to invite you over."
Ji Jinhe tilted his head, "Surname Qi?"
"Yes." The waiter gestured sideways, "Please follow me."
"Sorry, something happened." Ji Jinhe nodded at the two of them and left with the waiter.
Yu Cheng stared blankly at her back as she left. Her surname was Qi?
Could it be the Qi he was thinking of?
The man in the gray suit had not left yet. He laughed loudly and patted Yu Cheng on the shoulder, "This trip is worth it! Hahaha!" The man left with a smile.
Those who were curious about Ji Jinhe's identity gathered around the man to inquire, and soon, the news of Ji Jinhe being Chu Jin's agent spread.
Those who wanted to talk to Ji Jinhe couldn't find him.
Ji Jinhe followed the waiter all the way to the Miao family's garden, and carefully wrote down the route.
Ji Jinhe followed the waiter slowly, and after walking around a long path, he saw Qi Xiuxu's figure at the corner.
He sat alone at the stone table in the garden, with Cheng Mi guarding him five meters away.
The waiter brought Ji Jinhe over and left quickly. When Cheng Mi saw Ji Jinhe, he nodded slightly as a greeting.
Ji Jinhe walked slowly to the stone bench next to Qi Xiuxu and sat down, looking at him with her chin propped up.
"Why are you here?" Qi Xiuxu looked at her with deep eyes. He was originally waiting here for Miao Chuheng to come back.
"Didn't you ask me to come here?" Ji Jinhe narrowed her peach blossom eyes and asked with her head tilted.
Qi Xiuxu quickly figured out the whole story. Cheng Mi reported Ji Jinhe's arrival to him when he was upstairs, and when he came downstairs, he saw him staring at Ji Jinhe. Miao Chuheng misunderstood.
"Is that so?" Qi Xiuxu did not explain. There was no need to say it out loud and upset her.
A hint of understanding flashed across Ji Jinhe's eyes, and he realized that there was another reason.
The autumn night was a little chilly. Ji Jinhe put her hand into Qi Xiuxu's, "It's cold."
Qi Xiuxu frowned and glanced at her clothes, his eyes lingering for a moment on the skin exposed by the V-neck lapel, and then he realized that they were in the garden outside.
He did not let go of Ji Jinhe's hand, but lowered his eyes and wrapped her small hand with his broad palm.
Ji Jinhe also lowered her eyes and watched his reaction quietly, with a happy emotion spreading in her eyes.
"Who's there?" Cheng Mi's voice suddenly came from not far away.
Qi Xiuxu and Ji Jinhe frowned and looked over there at the same time, only to see a white figure standing not far away, staring at them motionlessly.
Ji Jinhe raised his eyes and looked at the man carefully. It was Xu Jinxi.
Xu Jinxi's gaze stayed on the two people's clasped hands in the distance. Looking along their arms, she saw Ji Jinhe looking at her with a bright smile on his face.
