Chapter 123 One Hundred and Twenty-Three Bosses



"Hasn't Song sent it to you yet?"

Feng Tong, who happened to hear Xiao Yuanmu's question, walked over with a smile, and said with a hint of surprise, "It was the first set of clothes he made. No, it should be said that every piece of clothing he designed on the catwalk today was not the first one. Every piece he made by hand was made according to your size. It was made a long time ago. I thought he had already given it to you before."

As early as Feng Tong said the first sentence, Song Xuanhe wanted to stop him, but before interrupting him, he suddenly felt that if he stopped Feng Tong from speaking at this time, it would seem more deliberate and guilty, so he shut his mouth again. When Feng Tong finished speaking and saw Xiao Yuanmu's eyes suddenly light up, Song Xuanhe said calmly: "At that time, we made it to your size for convenience. The first version has not been adjusted later, so the effect may not be as good as the one on stage. If you dislike it..."

"I won't mind."

The corners of Xiao Yuanmu's mouth curled up slightly, but when he noticed Song Xuan's gaze, he pursed his lips again. Only the corners of his eyes were slightly raised because he lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes were not as sharp as usual, but could not hide his joy.

It was the first time that Louis saw Xiao Yuanmu's happy and cheerful expression, yet he wanted to suppress his youthful look. He opened his eyes wide in surprise, turned to look at Yang Jie, and mouthed: This is not the Xiao I know!

It was also difficult for Yang Jie to see Xiao Yuanmu like this, but he was not as surprised as Louis as if he had seen a miracle. Instead, he was very calm, as if... as long as Brother Xiao was with Song Xuanhe, then no matter what he did, it seemed understandable.

Hearing Song Xuanhe say this, Feng Tong also realized that he might have said something wrong. He looked at Song Xuanhe apologetically and changed the subject: "Everyone, the celebration banquet is about to begin. Would you like to go with us now?"

Xiao Yuanmu nodded lightly and grabbed Song Xuanhe with his hand at his side.

Song Xuanhe was stunned for a moment and then looked up at Xiao Yuanmu, only to see that his eyes were dull and showed no emotion, as if holding his hand was the most normal thing to do.

[So there is no information about Xiao Yuanmu, and I am missing a lot of data about him, but even without data for analysis, I feel that Xiao Yuanmu seems to be very different from before. 】

Before the system's voice sounded, Song Xuanhe was also thinking about this question.

Ten months ago, even if Xiao Yuanmu wanted to hold his hand, he gave people the feeling of "I just want to hold your hand and don't want you to refuse, and it's useless even if you refuse". But now Xiao Yuanmu held his hand and pretended nothing happened. If he didn't know how tightly he was holding his hand, he almost thought that Xiao Yuanmu happened to hold his hand because he accidentally touched him when he was shaking his hand.

However, seeing Xiao Yuanmu's state, he felt that it would seem particularly pretentious if he shook off his hand.

Song Xuanhe lowered his eyes, looking at his and Xiao Yuanmu's interlocked hands, wondering what had happened to make Xiao Yuanmu suddenly become so...slippery.

[It doesn’t seem so.] Song Xuanhe narrowed his eyes and was forced to follow Feng Tong holding hands with Xiao Yuanmu, saying expressionlessly: [It is true. 】

Humans are truly amazing creatures. The system sighed: [Time is even more magical. It does not exist in our system, but you humans have invented a unit of measurement for it, and it will cause you to undergo unpredictable magical changes. Our system will never have unpredictable changes. 】

Does it include human choice? 】Song Xuanhe asked.

【certainly. 】The system said: 【We will analyze every possible choice of human beings based on the data we get, and calculate the direction with the highest probability of his choice. Everything is predictable. 】

【Then you can predict...】

"Mr. Xiao, you are finally here."

A group of people had already walked into the banquet hall. Mr. Bai led Bai Mo and waited not far from the door. When he saw Song Xuan and a few others coming, he hurriedly pulled Bai Mo to greet them. When he saw Song Xuan and Xiao Yuanmu holding hands, he paused, then continued with a smile: "And Mr. Song, congratulations on your successful design this time. If these clothes were not designed for young people, I would have wanted to buy a few to wear. But Bai Mo will definitely be suitable for them. I have already reserved all your clothes for this season."

Song Xuanhe's eyes flickered slightly, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled: "Thank you, Mr. Bai."

"Why call me Mr. Bai?" Mr. Bai pretended to be unhappy and said, "You and Mr. Xiao are friends with Bai Mo, so just call me Uncle Bai. It will be strange if you call me that."

Song Xuanhe raised his eyebrows, glanced at Bai Mo behind Mr. Bai with a smile, and curled the corners of his mouth slightly without saying anything.

Bai Mo pursed his lips and glanced at Xiao Yuanmu. Seeing that Xiao Yuanmu had been looking down at Song Xuanhe, he pulled his father's arm and said softly, "Dad, Mr. Song and Mr. Xiao and I have only met a few times. We are not really friends."

"Young people nowadays can make friends after just a few meetings. We don't want you to be lovers, so why are you being so awkward?" Mr. Bai said with a smile, "Besides, young people nowadays fall in love very easily. They impulsively say they want to be together forever after just a few meetings. Some are so overwhelmed by love that they easily forget the unpleasantness before being together. So it's easy to make friends, right?"

Song Xuanhe's eyes darkened slightly. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Xiao Yuanmu's clear voice beside him: "No."

"First, whether they are friends or lovers, they can't just get carried away and be together." Xiao Yuanmu's expression was light and his tone was calm. But for some reason, Louis and others always felt that there was a bit of sarcasm in his expression without showing any emotion: "Second, Xuanhe is very cautious in making friends. Not just anyone can be his friend, and I am the same."

After Xiao Yuanmu finished speaking, the scene became quiet.

In addition to the magazine editors and models, one-third of the celebrities who attended the celebration banquet came for Xiao Yuanmu. When Xiao Yuanmu entered the venue, not only Mr. Bai noticed it, but they also noticed it.

However, Mr. Bai was the fastest and went up to say hello, pulling Bai Mo with him. They couldn't interrupt the people who had already started communicating and they didn't know much about Xiao Yuanmu's character, so they waited for them to finish their conversation and wanted to judge how they would communicate with Xiao Yuanmu through their conversation.

Hearing Xiao Yuanmu's ruthless words, they all subconsciously shut their mouths and looked at the focus of everyone's attention.

Mr. Bai, who was being watched by everyone, looked at Xiao Yuanmu in astonishment. He obviously did not expect that Xiao Yuanmu would embarrass him in public.

In his opinion, Xiao Yuanmu has a good relationship with his son, so even if he uses his elder's airs to make a few jokes in a tactful way, Xiao Yuanmu should not be angry.

There is a reason why he thinks this way.

Mr. Bai remembered that before Xiao Yuanmu was found by the Xiao family, he was very cold to everyone. Although he did not pay attention to Xiao Yuanmu at that time, he had seen him and Song Xuanhe getting along from afar. At that time, Xiao Yuanmu's attitude towards Song Xuanhe was not like the attitude towards someone he liked, and Song Xuanhe was the same.

Others might not think much about it, but Mr. Bai has had so many wives and lovers and is very experienced in the love field. He can tell at a glance that the relationship between Song Xuanhe and Xiao Yuanmu is not good.

But he treated Bai Mo differently. He saw it clearly from upstairs at that time. The first time Xiao Yuanmu met Bai Mo, he was friendly to him, unlike with other people. Moreover, Bai Mo had helped Xiao Yuanmu solve some minor troubles at that time. Under such circumstances, Bai Mo was definitely different in Xiao Yuanmu's heart from others.

He further confirmed this just before the big show began. He had heard people say before that Xiao Yuanmu was still the same after returning to the Xiao family, even colder than before. Even if elders who were much older than him talked to him, he didn't like it and ignored them. He was very cold to everyone. But just now when he took Bai Mo to find Xiao Yuanmu, Xiao Yuanmu was very patient with them.

What does this prove? This proves that Bai Mo is indeed different to Xiao Yuanmu than to others!

He had heard a little about what happened between Song Xuanhe and Xiao Yuanmu before, but he thought it was just children playing around and didn't think much of it. But after Xiao Yuanmu's identity was revealed, Mr. Bai felt that this was a perfect opportunity.

He didn't know how much of the relationship between Song Xuanhe and Xiao Yuanmu was true or false, but he was certain that Xiao Yuanmu and Song Xuanhe were together out of compulsion in the beginning. One of his employees grew up in the same orphanage as Xiao Yuanmu. At that time, he knew Xiao Yuanmu's identity and that when this young man knew Xiao Yuanmu, he just wanted to learn more about Xiao Yuanmu and find an opportunity to get close to him.

Unexpectedly, he got the truth from the young man that Song Xuanhe used the welfare home to threaten Xiao Yuanmu to be with Song Xuanhe. The young man explained it very clearly. He described what the two said at that time, and said that he was standing outside at that time and absolutely did not tell a lie.

Mr. Bai thought about how Xiao Yuanmu and Song Xuanhe got along at that time, and believed the young man's words to 80%. After thinking about it carefully, he became restless. Song Xuanhe treated Xiao Yuanmu so well at that time, but Xiao Yuanmu was still able to put aside the past and be with him. Xiao Yuanmu also had a good impression of his son. Why couldn't his son replace Song Xuanhe as the head of the Xiao family?

As soon as this idea came to Mr. Bai, he could not help but want to put it into practice. Thinking of the current prosperity of the Song family, he could not help but imagine how prosperous the Bai family would be and how many times the Bai family's business would grow. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this opportunity could not be given up. So when he found a chance to contact Xiao Yuanmu, he rushed here without stopping.

However, he did not expect that Xiao Yuanmu would refute what he said so mercilessly in such a public occasion.

"I'm sorry." Bai Mo stepped forward, his eyes and cheeks reddened, probably because of shame and anger. He first glanced at Song Xuanhe, and then said to Xiao Yuanmu: "Mr. Xiao, I hope you don't mind what he said. He heard that we had some exchanges in China and thought we were friends. I didn't make it clear to him. I apologize to you now, and I hope you won't be angry because of this."

Song Xuanhe moved his fingers to stop Xiao Yuanmu from saying anything, and said to Bai Mo with squinted eyes, "Mr. Bai, I will bring Xiao Yuanmu to accept your apology, but the celebration banquet is about to begin and everyone is waiting. Can you please move aside a little to let us pass?"

The author has something to say: Xiao Yuanmu: Take the initiative to declare sovereignty.

Song Xuanhe: Forced to declare sovereignty.
