"The fifth time."
The man leaned back in his chair and frowned, revealing a shallow scar running across the edge of his brow bone. His whole body exuded a rebellious temperament.
"Ayan, this is the fifth time you have checked the time in ten minutes."
"What's up?"
The man opposite took his eyes off the watch and raised his chin, revealing a face with excellent bone structure but coldness under the black baseball cap. His well-shaped thin lips were pursed, and there was a silent urging in his dark and calm eyes.
Fu Xun: "I found out. It's hard to call you out."
"You're in such a hurry to leave, you can't be here to record that crappy show, right?"
Shi Yan didn't say anything, but this was the answer.
Fu Xun wanted to slap himself in the face for asking this unnecessary question.
Let’s talk business——
He seemed to be nonchalant and said tentatively: "I will go back to France in two days."
Shi Yan said in a low and calm voice: "Yeah."
Fu Xun sat up straight: "Just huh? That's your reaction? Do you really plan to stay in Beijing forever? Not going back with me——"
"Hey, Old Fu, just be quiet and shut up." An arm was placed across Fu Xun's shoulders, stopping him from talking. Then, another person sat next to him.
Then there were two people.
Brothers Xiao Jingheng and Xiao Jingyu sat down together.
The one who put his arm around Fu Xun's shoulder was his younger brother Xiao Jingyu: "You should worry more about yourself first. If you don't go back, that person will start to consider kicking you out. He would really like you not to get a penny of the inheritance."
Fu Xun sneered: "Who cares, if it weren't for——"
There was a gloom in his eyes: "Forget it, let's not talk about it."
There was a gloomy expression on Fu Xun's defiant face.
Shi Yan, who was looking out the window downstairs, didn't know what he saw, so he stood up and said, "Let's go."
Without waiting for the three to react.
The person had already opened the door and went out, quickly going downstairs.
“…”
This is a small park developed by the resort. The ecological environment is well designed and the air is humid.
There are no entertainment facilities, it is spacious and quiet, suitable for tourists to take a walk.
But at this time, not many people came.
Sheng Yuan untied the leash on Lai Lai, found a long wooden chair on the lawn and sat down, watching the cat running around happily without the leash.
A shadow fell overhead.
Sheng Yuan raised her head, and her almond eyes lit up: "Shi Yan."
She said: "I knocked on the door just now, but I didn't hear you talking. I thought you were asleep, so I brought Lai Lai out by myself."
Shi Yan sat next to her. The curve of his long legs looked beautiful, and the joints of his hands resting on his knees were clearly visible.
—Of course she couldn't hear him, and when she knocked on the door, the room was empty.
"Next time, don't knock, just come in."
Sheng Yuan turned her head, slightly stunned.
His dark eyes stared at her seriously for a few seconds, then he looked at her and said, "Then wake me up."
“…”
The three people living upstairs in the detached villa took in the entire scene not far from the window.
“…”
Brother Xiao Jingheng suddenly tapped the table with his fingers: "Old Fu, I have an idea for you. Take care of Ah Yan and bring him back to France."
Fu Xun had a bad feeling and raised his eyebrows - if you have to fart, do it quickly.
Jamel Xiao pointed outside mysteriously: "Just find a way to get the eldest daughter of the Sheng family to go to France."
“…”
Fu Xun's face was filled with black lines.
What good idea does he have? It's a waste of expression.
To be honest, he had the ability to ruin the engagement between Sheng Yuan and A Yan.
But, if you want to target Sheng Yuan.
——Think of something.
Besides, after falling off the horse, he no longer had any messy thoughts.
At the beginning, it was his one-sided understanding that formed a preconceived view of Sheng Yuan.
Fu Xun said indifferently: "Drink your tea." - "Mr. Shi."
"... Mr. Shi?"
The assistant called out several times before the man in front of him came back to his senses.
Shi Xuan looked down, his tone not very good: "What's the matter?"
The assistant was embarrassed and gave a tactful reminder.
"Several responsible persons have almost finished their reports—"
Shi Xuan finally reacted and frowned: "Let's adjourn the meeting."
The people in the conference room dispersed.
The assistant took out the schedule and said, "Next, there will be an outdoor recording of the variety show. It will be a segment where some temporary guests will be rated. The location is over there in the square."
"This is an unconfirmed schedule. Do you want to attend or cancel it——"
Shi Xuan didn't hesitate for a second: "No push."
Assistant: "Okay, then I'll notify the person in charge to prepare."
When following Shi Xuan out of the temporary meeting room, the assistant couldn't help but look in the direction where Shi Xuan had been staring in a daze during the meeting.
It's just an empty little park, nothing there.
So what did Mr. Shi see just now? -The central street square of the resort was decorated early.
Road signs and banners with the Lucky Restaurant logo can be seen everywhere.
The scene was just as grand as it was at noon, and the seats arranged by the on-site resort staff were filled with people, almost all of them.
The opening music is grand.
Three groups of guests have appeared on the stage.
Oh, no, Lin Xue and Zhang Yang are in one group, Zheng Baiqing is in a group by herself, and the last group of guests has three people.
An unknown person at the scene asked: "Why is the personnel distribution uneven?"
Someone directly explained to him: "The person in Ohduo was poached from another group by that group of guests."
The man: “6.”
“…”
The first guest to taste the food was Xia Xicheng. Young Master Xia did not keep anyone in suspense and gave very generous scores.
"Group A three points."
"One point for Group B."
"Two points for Group C."
The second food tasting guest, Mr. Wu Hui, still hadn't arrived at the scene, but the program crew was not in a hurry. They followed the process at noon and randomly selected five people from the audience.
Before the director shouted for the draw——
Suddenly, there was a commotion among the audience.
With the support of the staff, the man in a suit and tie with deep facial features was led straight to the front row.
The camera stayed on his profile for two seconds.
Not only the scene, but also the live broadcast room barrage began to stir——
[Oh my god, the eldest son of the Shi family! ]
[I’m really handsome. ]
[The one following him must be his girlfriend. This resort is owned by the Shi family. The young master of the Shi family must be here for work. He keeps his girlfriend by his side. Wow, what a great relationship! Hahahaha, who wouldn't want to be possessed by the young master Shi's girlfriend? ]
【……】
Gu Yun came here by herself.
She got the exact time when Shi Xuan would adjourn the meeting from his assistant, and waited at the door of the meeting room early, pretending to know nothing, and came to have dinner with Shi Xuan.
Just before dinner was about to end, the assistant came up and reminded Shi Xuan that the variety show's outdoor performance was about to begin.
Gu Yun asked naturally that she also wanted to join in the fun and didn’t want to be alone.
Shi Xuan looked at her excited eyes, paused, and nodded in agreement.
