Song Xuanhe was facing the door and saw Xiao Yuanmu the first time. He looked cold and puzzled: "Have you finished the meeting?"
At this time, the secretary also took a half step back, turned around and saw Xiao Yuanmu and smiled. The girl was thoughtful and explained: "There was something on Mr. Song's collar just now, I helped him wipe it off."
After saying this, he waved the wet tissue in his hand to prove his innocence.
Xiao Yuanmu didn't say anything. In fact, although the angle of the two people just now was very misleading, based on his understanding of Song Xuanhe, even if he really fell in love with someone else or wanted to do something, he would not do it blatantly in the company.
However, the depressed feeling caused by seeing Song Xuan so close to others would not be reduced just because he knew.
People in the conference room came out one after another. The manager of the venture capital department greeted Song Xuanhe when he saw him, and the secretary also found an excuse to leave.
Song Xuanhe stood up and said, "Let's go. It should be just in time for dinner now."
Tonight's party is an important plot. The system has been reminding Song Xuanhe in his mind since the afternoon meeting. He also told Xiao Yuanmu yesterday about having dinner outside today. He appeared in the venture capital department waiting for him because the book mentioned "Song Xuanhe was waiting for Xiao Yuanmu at the door of the venture capital department." He usually waits in the parking lot.
Xiao Yuanmu's eyes swept across his collar which was slightly wet. He pursed his lips and nodded, his expression a little colder than usual.
Song Xuanhe didn't care when he saw it. He originally wanted to reduce contact with Xiao Yuanmu as much as possible. He didn't say a word until they arrived at the private club for today's gathering.
The initiator of this party was Song Xuanhe's high school classmate. He had a good relationship with Song Xuanhe when they were in school, and they kept in touch after going abroad for college. Their common interest was to attend various interesting parties. This high school classmate, who had been influenced by the unrestrained atmosphere abroad for four years, was more open to all kinds of food when having fun. Because his family had entertainment and media industries, he had one foot in the entertainment industry, and every party was star-studded.
This birthday party was no exception. Those who went in and out of the booked club were either second- and third-generation familiar faces in the circle, or some faces that were often seen on TV, including many big-name stars.
Xiao Yuanmu followed Song Xuanhe and saw him greeting and chatting with people of different identities with ease. Occasionally, he would hug those he was close to and whisper a few words in their ears. He had an elegant and cheerful smile, but a bit of indifference in his eyes. The arrogance and contempt that was inadvertently revealed made his breathing suddenly slow down a little, and the fingers on his sides couldn't help but bend a little.
His chest felt a little stuffy, and with it came an elusive itch that sprouted from the bottom of his heart, making him absent-minded, but also wanting to block his sight, making the area within his sight become narrow and small, preferably only big enough for him.
What does it feel like?
Before Xiao Yuanmu could think carefully about the answer, he saw someone holding Song Xuanhe and said with a smile: "Is this your little boyfriend?"
After saying that, the man looked at him with a narrow smile, and then said: "I heard people say that you found a boyfriend and planned to have a real relationship, but I didn't believe it. Now that I see the real person, I believe it. You have a good eye."
Hearing this, Xiao Yuanmu looked at Song Xuanhe calmly.
Song Xuanhe matched the man's face with his memory, then smiled and said evasively, "Bring him here to play. Where's Qian Qin? How come he didn't show up on his birthday?"
No one noticed the disappointment that flashed across Xiao Yuanmu's eyes. He pursed his lips, looked towards the center of the crowd, and said, "Look, he's been chasing after that actor who just won the Golden Globe. Unfortunately, that actor is not from his company. He's a big shot, and he doesn't control the resources. He finally got him here, so how dare he let him into the crowd? He'll be sick if someone else takes him away."
Song Xuanhe followed the man's line of sight and saw only a few unfamiliar figures and a head that was slightly taller than the crowd. He saw nothing else and asked casually, "Which actor?"
"Xue Mian," the man said, "There has been a lot of coverage on TV recently, so you must know him."
"know."
Song Xuanhe answered quickly but not perfunctorily. He did know Xue Mian, but not because of the reports in the entertainment news, but because Xue Mian was one of Xiao Yuanmu's future suitors and one of the protagonists of this book. He just didn't expect to see him here in advance.
After the man finished speaking, he was called away by someone he knew. Song Xuanhe turned around and glanced at Xiao Yuanmu.
He found that he was indeed looking at the center of the crowd. Although his expression was always cold and indifferent, Song Xuanhe noticed something different from the corners of his slightly pursed mouth. At least he had never seen Xiao Yuanmu staring at someone for so long before.
Song Xuanhe had just withdrawn his gaze when he saw the people gathered over there parting into a path. Today's birthday boy and a man with outstanding looks and temperament walked out together and walked straight towards them.
"Why are you here just now?" The birthday boy glanced at Song Xuanhe, then turned to the man beside him and said, "This is Song Xuanhe, you can just call him Song Er. I don't need to introduce him, I think he's the movie star Xue Mian, you must know him."
Song Xuanhe nodded to Xue Mian, who also politely greeted him. Then his eyes fell on Xiao Yuanmu and hesitantly asked, "Who is this...?"
"Is this your boyfriend that's been so popular?" The birthday girl spoke without waiting for Song Xuanhe to speak, fearing that Xue Mian, who had said on the show that his partner was good-looking, would be interested in the exceptionally good-looking Xiao Yuanmu. She said, "I heard that you taught that kid Lu Chao a lesson on the spot for him. It seems like you're serious. Congratulations."
Song Xuanhe was interrupted and didn't bother to say more. He just nodded and introduced: "Xiao Yuanmu."
Xiao Yuanmu nodded to the two of them coldly but politely, showing no intention of speaking.
However, Actor Xue seemed to be very interested in Xiao Yuanmu. The three of them talked about the topic again and again, and eventually they would all come back to Xiao Yuanmu, just to get him to say a few more words. Later in the conversation, the birthday boy began to roll his eyes at Song Xuanhe, signaling him to take Xiao Yuanmu away quickly.
Song Xuanhe was also somewhat helpless and a little emotional. After all, they were the main characters. The attraction between them was different from that of ordinary people.
As he was talking, Xue Mian changed the topic from the development prospects of the entertainment industry to the development direction of his studio, and then from the studio to the artists under it. Then he said to Xiao Yuanmu: "Mr. Xiao, I don't know if you are interested in entering the entertainment industry. I opened my own studio. Currently, I only have two artists under me. Both of them have good development prospects. If you are willing to join, I can give you the best resources, and I can guarantee that within half a year, you will definitely be famous."
However, Xiao Yuanmu's reaction was very cold, but he still knew the occasion and was very polite even though he had little interest: "Sorry, I haven't considered entering the entertainment industry for the time being."
Xiao Yuanmu's voice was clear, like the sound of spring water. Although it was a little chilly, it made people feel refreshed instead of cold. In this regard, Song Xuanhe admired Xiao Yuanmu a little. As long as he didn't harbor any ill will towards the person who was speaking, few people could resist the temptation brought by his appearance and voice.
Xue Mian didn't feel that Xiao Yuanmu was cold. Instead, he was even happier to hear him say a few more words. He smiled and said, "It's okay. I can leave you a contact number. If you change your mind, you can always contact me."
"Ahem." The birthday boy winked at Song Xuanhe.
But Song Xuanhe knew that he was working in vain. In the book, Xue Mian fell in love with Xiao Yuanmu at first sight. The reason for love at first sight was very simple, because Xue Mian was a pure face control. Not only that, he was also a hidden voice control. It was not surprising that Xiao Yuanmu, whose appearance and voice were both top-notch, would make him fall instantly.
But if we stand here and chat any longer, we will miss the plot, so Song Xuanhe still interrupted: "Actor Xue, just leave me your contact information. We will contact you if necessary. And it seems that the birthday boy is waiting to cut the cake over there. Birthday boy, didn't you say that there would be games to play after cutting the cake? Why don't you go quickly."
The birthday boy looked at Song Xuanhe with gratitude, and half-dragged and half-begged Xue Mian to leave here. After a while, Song Xuanhe and Xiao Yuanmu were the only ones left in this corner.
Seeing that Song Xuanhe had not come back to his senses for a long time after watching the two people leave, Xiao Yuanmu's expression, which had been slightly relaxed by Song Xuanhe's words just now, became tense again. He said in a calm voice: "What do you think of Xue Mian's proposal?"
Song Xuanhe answered without hesitation: "I don't think you are suitable for the entertainment industry."
"So where do you think I fit in?"
"Continue..." Song Xuanhe turned his head and stopped what he was about to say, pretending to be impatient and said: "Just continue to be with me, there is no need to adapt to anything else."
Xiao Yuanmu was not angry at all. Instead, he asked a completely unrelated question: "What do you think of Xue Mian's appearance?"
Song Xuanhe was stunned for a moment, and then he continued, "Whose appearance do you like better, me or Xue Mian?"
The author has something to say: Song Xuanhe: This is a life-threatening question, I refuse to answer it.
