The receptionist standing at the entrance looked extremely familiar. I couldn't help but stop my steps and take a closer look. Although the guest had thick makeup on, he looked extremely similar to Xiaoyun.
I couldn't help but stop. Tai Ziqian also stopped when he saw me stop.
"Xiaoyun, long time no see." I said slowly, looking at her.
She stood very straight and maintained her standard smile, but there was no warmth in her eyes as she said, "Greetings, dear customer. Your box is in 203. Please follow me."
"I'm talking to you, are you Xiaoyun?" I asked, not moving.
She was going to lead us forward, but I didn't move, so she stopped.
The Heaven and Earth Palace was famous for paying attention to the services of a supreme being. Any staff member who offended a guest would be severely punished.
I don't know why she works here. Usually the guests at the hotel are young girls, but she doesn't have that much energy left.
After one year of not seeing her, she had become even thinner and thinner. Even the smallest qipao she could not support was now empty.
"Esteemed guests, please follow me. Please allow me the honor of leading you to your box." She continued to smile.
"Didn't you hear what I asked you?" My tone immediately turned cold.
Tai Ziqian tugged on my sleeve and whispered, "Let's ask around in the room. It's not good to be here."
I nodded and followed her into the box. When she led us to the box, the smile faded.
Before I could say anything, she looked at me seriously and said, "Xu Shubei, this is a job I've finally found. I hope you won't trip me on purpose and cause me to lose my job."
"It looks like you haven't entered his heart in a year." I said, looking at Xiaoyun.
I couldn't see her face under the thick foundation of her makeup, but her eyes weren't as determined as before. "If there's nothing else," she said coyly, "I'll go out first."
"Go." I waved my hand and she turned and walked out of my box.
"I thought you would take the opportunity to humiliate her. I didn't expect you to let her go so easily." Tai Ziqian smiled.
"We have to let them go and let them go. We don't have anything to do with each other right now, so why make things difficult for them?" I just don't understand, Sheng Yun clearly arranged a job for her, why would she come here as a welcome guest? " "No," I said.
"Golden Age has signed a contract with this place. All of the distinguished guests in the group will be served here. Presumably, she wanted to increase the rate of meeting with Sheng Yun. "In this way, it means that she hasn't given up hope on Sheng Yun." Tai Ziqian said.
"Duo Duo is seriously ill. Sheng Yun used all kinds of methods to treat her. As Duo Duo's mother, why didn't she think of all kinds of ways to accompany her? " As I said this, I couldn't help but shake my head.
"Perhaps this place is also for the sake of meeting Duo Duo. Let's not speculate about other people's affairs. It's almost time for everyone to come. " Tai Ziqian said.
As soon as he finished, the staff pushed open the door and walked in. I immediately adjusted my condition and entertained the core members of the Xu family with Tai Ziqian. At dinner, I assured them that their own welfare would not be affected in any way. In addition, if I could finish the project earlier, I would even consider giving them more of their share of the year-end bonus.
I used the expertise I had as a public relations director to win over this batch of technical core members with this meal, to reassure them, and to understand the problems I'm facing now.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was especially good. They had been toasting us and Tai Ziqian and I had drunk too much.
It's been a long time since I've had a drink like this, and it's getting worse than it used to be. Halfway through the meal, I push open the box and go to the bathroom to wash my face and get some fresh air.
As I was walking along the road, someone suddenly lifted me up from behind me and spun me around several times before finally letting me go. A pig's hand suddenly reached into my chest and it cursed: "Little Mei, you little tramp! I have been looking for you for so long, but you actually hid here! "
Before I could recover from my shock, I slapped the man in the face.
"Take a good look at who I am!" I clutched my chest in fright and yelled at him.
The man had a fierce-looking face and his facial features revealed his hostility. There was a very thick gold necklace around his neck and he was wearing a Fansizhe outfit. However, this fashionable clothing clearly did not match his temperament.
I was so angry that I began to tremble all over, as I was suddenly hugged by such a man.
The man's face was flushed red and he glared at me with a ferocious expression. He cursed under his breath, pointed at my nose and yelled, "You bitch, you dare to hit me?! Did you f * cking forget the day I pressed you down? See how I'll deal with you today?! "
With that, he rushed over and wrapped his arms around my neck. The man's strength was so great that I couldn't break free. He almost suffocated me.
In my desperation, I kicked him hard in the crotch. He pushed me away so hard that I stumbled and fell to the ground.
The waiter didn't understand what was going on and thought we really knew each other. The guests that came here were either rich or noble. They didn't dare to offend them, so no one dared to step forward.
I was punched a few times by the man before the hotel manager hurried over to explain.
I awkwardly stood up from the ground. A waiter immediately supported me, causing my skirt to be nearly ripped apart by this fatty. Just as I was about to speak, a dark voice suddenly sounded out.
"What's going on? Did my great beauty get bullied? "
It was Ling Yue. Only he had such a signature voice.
I followed the sound and saw Ling Yue in a black suit with black pants, wearing a V-neck T-shirt, chewing bubble gum, and several women swaggering over.
The woman behind him was not only Wan, but also Rou.
Wan and Rou wore skintight dresses of the same style. One was pure white, while the other was bright red. They were clearly the same type of design, but when they wore it on their bodies, it was actually a completely different style.
He approached slowly, lifting my chin and pretending to be in the mood to wipe the blood from the corner of my mouth. Then he said in a heartbroken voice, "Tsk tsk, what blind bastard beat my pretty girl to such a state? This is so heartbreaking! "
"Who are you? Do you know who I am? If you know what's good for you, hurry up and scram! " The fat guy yelled at Ling Yue.
Ling Yue glanced at him out of the corner of his eye. He didn't want to waste his breath with him, so he slapped Fatty hard on the face.
He moved so fast that I didn't see how he did it.
"You … You are f * * king courting death! " When the fatty saw this, he immediately pounced over.
The manager of the Heaven and Earth Palace hurriedly tried to stop him, but he was kicked away by the fatty. Ling Yue calmly stood in front of me, but he didn't move at all when the fatty rushed over.
Before I could see how he did it, the fat guy was already at our feet. He stepped on the fat guy with one foot and said coldly, "I think you're tired of living! Tomorrow, get the hell out of the Hangcheng, do you hear me? "
"You … "Who the hell are you?!" The fatty lay on the ground as he roared.
"Remember, I'm Ling Yue." Ling Yue patted his face and said.
In that instant, Fatty's face turned deathly pale.
He got up from the ground and wanted to run away, but Ling Yue grabbed him by the collar: "Wait for me at your house tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock! "If you dare to run, you can give it a try."
Ling Yue's voice was filled with an indescribable deterrence. Fatty's expression changed a few times before he disappointedly ran away.
I stood there clutching my chest because my collar had been ripped off by the fat man.
Under the wa
tchful eyes of everyone, Ling Yue took off his suit and draped it over my shoulders. He then took out a seemingly expensive handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the blood off my face.
"Does it hurt?" he asked me softly, and then, as he treated my wounds in front of the others, he said, "Don't worry, I'll teach him a good lesson for you."
"Do you know who he is?" I couldn't help but ask.
"In the Hangcheng, there is nothing that I do not know." The certainty in his voice was evident.
I was startled, and suddenly felt that Hangcheng was a place with hidden dragons and crouching tigers. There were outstanding entrepreneurs like Sheng Yun in the open. There were elites like Tai Ziqian, who had a deep background. There were also mysterious forces like Ling Yue, who hid in the shadows.
"I didn't expect that in just a few days, Shubei had already fallen for A Yue's heart. This ability is really amazing. " At this moment, Rou's voice sounded.
I looked up and realized that Sheng Yun was also in the crowd.
He wore a silver suit and stood there, his eyes cold and his face filled with an unconcealable sneer.
"That's right." "This is the first time I've seen a woman like Shubei." Ling Yue said without hiding anything.
I covered my face and quietly looked at Sheng Yun. He looked at me and then turned around slowly and walked in the opposite direction.
"What is it? It's unforgettable? " Ling Yue whispered in my ear.
"Shut up!" I coldly said to Ling Yue.
I subconsciously walked over and grabbed Sheng Yun's hand.
He turned his head and looked at me with a strange expression. "Xu Shubei, it's only been a year."
There were too many deeper meanings behind these words.
CHAPTER 220 - UNFORESEEN(2)
I let go of his hand and stepped back.
In fact, I had no idea why, a few seconds ago, I had desperately grabbed his hand.
Subconsciously, when I was somehow insulted and slighted by a strange man, he suddenly appeared and stood there, and my first reaction was to say, "It's so good that he's here."
When he turned around, I couldn't help but step forward. I tried to stop him from leaving.
However, he turned to me and said, "Xu Shubei, it's only been a year."
I understood the meaning of this sentence, and the little spark that had risen up in my heart went out with a "whoosh".
"Yes, it's only been a year!" The love in my eyes was immediately extinguished. I raised my head once again and used a pair of cold eyes to face him. It was as if four streaks of ice had quickly condensed into a pillar of ice, freezing our hearts and pushing them away from each other.
At that moment, his heart shattered once again. It was good to see him again, but at that moment, I suddenly felt that it was better not to see him.
"Yun, why are you here as well?" Rou walked up to Sheng Yun and said.
"I accompanied my client to dinner and just sent him away. Rou, long time no see. " Sheng Yun ignored my words and said to Rou.
"Why are you so cold to Shubei? Lili was beaten up by someone. That person always said that Lili went on the boat with him and refused to admit her debt. Could it be that she was a customer that was accompanied by Lili before? " Rou pretended to speak in a normal tone, but there was a hint of schadenfreude in her words.
I could hear her voice and couldn't help but to glance at her. She looked at me with a gaze that refused to back down. "Shubei, I was just casually saying it. Don't take it to heart."
"He probably recognized the wrong person. When he first stopped me from leaving, he kept calling out to Rou. And I shouted it more than once. " I patted her on the shoulder and said coldly, "I've helped you to ward off the disaster. If you had come a few minutes earlier, you would have been the one getting beaten up. No need to thank me!"
Just as I finished speaking, Ling Yue suddenly walked to my side, put his arm around my shoulders, and giggled at Sheng Yun. "I say, CEO Pang, I've been watching from the side for a long time, it's no wonder you're so cold to your wife. No wonder …" "Heh heh."
There was a deep meaning behind his words. Sheng Yun looked at him coldly and asked, "No wonder what?"
"No wonder your wife has worked so hard to establish herself as a good president's wife." It's said that only a woman who doesn't have a man in her heart will force her to be strong and independent. Looks like that's true! " Ling Yue said in a weird tone, then he put his arm around my shoulders and said, "Young woman, why don't you leave him and me? I promise I won't let you lead such a widowed life. How about it?
"Ling Yue, can you shut up?" I'm not familiar with you, thank you. " I pushed away his hand, which was longer and thinner than a woman's.
"When the mouth grows long, of course it's necessary to speak. How can you make me shut up?" There's only one way to shut me up, but... I guess you wouldn't want it, "Ling Yue said, and then he came close to my ear and said," That's … In bed. "
Sheng Yun obviously heard Ling Yue's words, but he still stood there without moving. He looked at us coldly with an indifferent expression.
It looked like he really didn't care.
"Let go of your hand!" I couldn't be bothered with Ling Yue's rogue look, so I forcefully pushed his hand away.
But when I pushed his hand away, he slipped his hand and wrapped it around my waist. I panicked and shouted, "Ling Yue! "You're crazy!"
Just as I said that, Sheng Yun suddenly tugged at me. He pulled me right behind him, looked at Ling Yue and coldly said, "She's still my wife! "Ling Yue, don't provoke me intentionally!"
I was behind him, his hand still holding mine. Originally, his actions made me feel that he still had feelings for me, but his words made me wake up instantly.
"Yo …" Ling Yue crossed his arms, looked at Sheng Yun disdainfully and frivolously, then smiled and said, "CEO Pang is really funny, when people admit that he's your wife, you have to push them away. They don't recognize you anymore and want to leave with me, but you dragged me behind again. I say, if someone gave birth to your son, how can you not give him a name? It's fine if she's a cat or a dog, but I can understand why she threw it away just like that. The key is, I think she's pretty smart, why are you treating her like that? "
Ling Yue didn't know where this logic came from, but no one knew how to refute it. The dispute between Sheng Yun and me was nothing more than a light matter in his eyes, as if it were simply a matter of going out to the streets to buy food, or to buy food, or not to buy food.
"You don't need to worry about our matters. I hope you stay away from Shubei. If you try to be nice to her again, I won't be polite. " Sheng Yun said coldly.
"Great CEO, I know you are a rich third generation with a lot of work to do. You are different from us, the poor kids. You are noble, you have everything you want, and you look down on a rich and powerful person like me. I can understand that, but … I, Ling Yue, am a bastard, and the heart of flowers is the heart of flowers. I can't be like you, to be able to be so calm after seeing your own woman being humiliated. " Ling Yue purposely said in a provocative manner.
"If you don't mind my own business, maybe I won't stay calm," Sheng Yun looked at Ling Yue and said, then turned to me and said, "Why are you here? You came with him? "
Just when I wanted to speak, Tai Ziqian was carried out of the room by a group of engineers. He was obviously drunk and was supported by two tall engineers as he walked towards us.
"Shu..." "Shubei." Tai Ziqian was initially staggering, but the moment he saw me, he pushed the two people beside him away and then walked crookedly to my side.
I saw he was about to fall, so I held him up.
"You … What happened to your face? Go, I … I'll take you to the hospital. " He had too much to drink, and his breath smelled like liquor. His face was flushed.
But even in his drunken state, he saw the wound on my face. I knew that he was doing this for my company, for the sake of being able to do business with the Xu family as soon as possible. Tha
t was why he had gone all out to accompany this group of engineers in drinking wine and building relationships with them, ensuring that the project wouldn't be interrupted just because we suddenly took over.
At that moment, with an indescribable guilt toward Tai Ziqian, I said, "I'm fine, Ziqian. How much did you drink?"
"Boss Xu, I've always given each of us a toast. I've instructed us to be sure to keep the project under control and not let it slip through our fingers at this time." the project manager said to me.
He had already drunk quite a bit before, and now that he had so many people behind him to pay his respects, even if he was just drinking a huge amount, they would have already collapsed a long time ago.
"I... I'm fine, I... I'll take you to the hospital. What happened? Why are there so many people here? " Tai Ziqian stammered. Then, probably due to the strong alcohol, he slowly fell down in front of me.
"Men who are good to Shubei, they really are descendants." Tsk tsk … This kind of luck with women is really enviable. " Rou said in a strange tone.
I didn't want to care about the chaos at the scene anymore, so I quickly got my employees to help Tai Ziqian up. Seeing that his expression wasn't right, as if there was a sign of alcohol poisoning, I quickly got my employees to help him to the back of my car, preparing to drive him to the hospital.
I don't know why, but Sheng Yun and Ling Yue both followed us to the parking lot.
Just as I was about to drive, an employee stopped me, "Boss Xu, you've had quite a bit too. Don't drive, it's too dangerous."
"You're all drunk, and I have to get him to the hospital. There's a hospital near here, just around the corner. You help me take the other employees home one by one, and I'll take you guys to the hospital. " I said anxiously.
At this moment, Sheng Yun suddenly walked up. He opened the car door and simply said two words to me: "Get off."
"No need, I can drive." I was a little surprised, but still spoke coldly.
He picked me up straight out of the cab and then got into the cab himself and, seeing me standing there, said to me, "What are you waiting for? Get in the car! "
Seeing that Tai Ziqian's situation was getting out of hand, I hurriedly got in the car. Sheng Yun skillfully started the throttle and drove us towards the hospital.
