4,4.
Xu Siyue couldn't wait for a taxi, and she was unwilling to go back to the restaurant for help. She stubbornly kept her head down and tinkered with the online car-hailing app she had never built before, and her mobile phone was still unable to connect to the Internet.
She was cold and angry, and she bit her lip hard, making it moist and plump, indescribably beautiful.
The people who came to Zhaixingyuan for dinner were either rich or noble. It was almost time to leave, and some sexy sports cars drove out one after another. When they passed by her, they all stopped to strike up a conversation.
"Where are you going, young lady? I'll take you there."
Another Masa braked, and a colorful head with tinfoil sticking out.
Xu Siyue looked at him with disgust and sneered: "You haven't even grown your hair yet, but you still want to flirt with others. Don't get in your aunt's eyes."
A few dozen meters away, Gu Xueden stared at her silently with cold eyes.
After being scolded by the tinfoil, he became angry and angry. Before he could get angry, other cars came up from behind, with the hood open, and laughed loudly: "Okay, brother, if you can't, please make room, don't freeze your delicate skin and tender meat."
"
Xu Siyue used to be pampered and treated like a young lady, but she had never been treated like this. Her stomach was churning with nausea, and she almost vomited out the porridge she finally managed to eat.
Not to be outdone, Xu Siyue wanted to get out of the car and drag her luggage with her, so Xu Siyue dialed 110.
Before the three numbers were pressed, the tinfoil hotter moved up to grab it with his hands and feet. Just when his fingers were about to touch Xu Siyue's wrist, a heavy car honking sound suddenly sounded, blasting through the dark night.
Several people were startled and turned their heads in unison. They saw a black Bentley parked opposite. The driver's window slowly lowered, revealing the man's sharp and deep eyes.
Xu Siyue's chest shrank sharply.
Gu Xueden...why hasn't he left yet? He's just waiting here to watch her laugh, right?
She immediately kicked the tin foil, pointed at Bentley and shouted in a low voice: "Look at yourself in the mirror, are you as handsome as him with a hair like his! Even an aunt like him can't stand it! Get out of here! If you dare to say nonsense again, I'll see you at the police station!"
"
Due to the silent coercion of the man opposite, and Xu Siyue's domineering attitude, she really didn't look like someone who could be easily taken advantage of. The wandering sports cars didn't want to cause trouble, so they left one after another, leaving only Xu Siyue and Xu Siyue on the empty street.
That cold side face behind the car window.
She didn't show weakness, didn't say thank you, and even wanted to pick up a stone and throw it away.
The emotions in my heart were rolling violently, and I couldn't tell whether it was anger or grievance.
Gu Xueden didn't get out of the car at all, and he had no intention of talking to her.
Xu Siyue couldn't lose her face and wanted to yell at him to vent her anger, but another eye-catching wine-red sports car rushed over and made an emergency stop in front of her.
Gu Xueden's patience reached the bottom line, veins bulged on the back of his hands, and the car door had been pushed out a gap.
A woman got out of the sports car across the street and pounced on Xu Siyue.
Gu Xueden's eyebrows were slightly twisted, and a light-colored tear mole under the end of her eye looked like a drop of blood.
He slowly took back his hand to open the car door, leaned back in the chair, his chest rose and fell slightly, and he closed his eyes in a self-deprecating tone.
"Siyue, you are indeed still here!"
Xu Siyue was hugged and realized that this person was Liang Yan.
Liang Yan looked at Xu Siyue carefully from head to toe, and there was a subtle awkwardness in her eyes: "You took the elixir in the UK, right? If you continue to be beautiful, you will have to ascend from the same place."
Xu Siyue was not in the mood to joke: "Why are you here?"
Liang Yan scolded: "I knew something was wrong with you, and I thought I would try my luck. Maybe I could help. Fortunately, I came, otherwise you would rather stand on the roadside with your luggage and take a taxi instead of looking for me!"
"Let's go," she grabbed Xu Siyue's hand, "go to my place to sleep, and tell me what happened."
Liang Yan didn't pull for a moment and noticed something strange. She followed Xu Siyue's gaze and looked over, her expression suddenly stiffened: "Gu Xueden..."
Xu Siyue snorted: "Leave him alone."
After saying that, she tried her best to put on a ferocious expression in the direction of the Bentley, and sat dignifiedly in Liang Yan's car. When the distance between them was more than ten meters, she relieved her strength, turned her head slightly, and silently glanced at the people who were getting away.
Black car shadow.
Liang Yan lived alone in an apartment with a view of more than 300 square meters in the city center. Xu Siyue followed her in and finally had a sense of reality that things are different and people are different.
In the past, Liang Yan's family was not as good as hers, and she would always follow her around, asking her to protect her, but now she can help her in turn.
Xu Siyue looked around, feeling happy, but also feeling more bitterness.
Everyone has a family, but she is gone.
She had to hold back, she couldn't go back to Xu's house and tear Xu Cheng and his little wife apart. She was not afraid of pinching each other in front of each other. What she was afraid of was causing a big incident, missing the auction, and losing her mother's paintings.
Liang Yan poured water for her and asked anxiously: "Siyue, what happened, where is uncle? And... Gu Xueden, why is he there? Does he still hate you? I heard that you will cause trouble after you return to China.
?”
Maybe it was because the little sister's eyes were too concerned, Xu Siyue laughed, tiredly knelt down and hugged her knees, and told all the bad things about the night.
After a long time, she heard Liang Yan's somewhat off-key voice: "You said, Gu Xuechen wants to marry you."
Xu Siyue slapped the floor: "Yes, you heard it right, pervert, right? He just wants to torture me with marriage. If he really wants an extra marriage certificate, his domestic violence against me won't be considered a criminal case!"
"It's my fault for lying to him about my feelings, but you won't want to retaliate against me so cruelly, right?"
"Even if I die and jump from the building, I still can't marry him!"
Liang Yan read it again as if she was trembling: "How could it be that he married you and he just couldn't let go..."
Xu Siyue didn't hear clearly what Liang Yan said. She thought of business, wiped the moisture from the corner of her eyes, opened the suitcase and took out the box containing the watch: "It's basically brand new, the discount is not much, and you won't suffer any loss."
Liang Yan paused for a moment, lowered her eyes and smiled slightly: "I'll give you money. If you don't need these things, you can keep them and wear them. If you really want to sell them, it will be difficult to buy them again in the future."
Xu Siyue pursed her lips, her fingertips turned white from the box.
Liang Yan tilted her head gently and patted her: "Don't worry, the money will definitely be enough to take the picture."
Xu Siyue forced the box to her, breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head to the floor-to-ceiling window, and asked in a low voice: "What does Gu Xuechen... do now? With such a big change, has he gone to rob a bank?"
Liang Yan paused: "Do you know about Deep Blue Technology?"
"...I know a little bit," Xu Siyue frowned, "For voice assistants and artificial intelligence, I saw an international robot competition in the UK last year, and it was also the winner in the end."
Liang Yan took a deep breath: "Deep Blue Technology was founded by Gu Xuechen."
That night, Xu Siyue suffered from habitual insomnia. She endured a headache and opened Baidu and searched for information on Deep Blue Technology. What came out was legendary, especially the entry for the person in charge, Gu Xueden, which was associated with a bunch of not-so-serious things.
of gossip.
Either they pay attention to his personal feelings, or they use the few candid photos of him to compare their beauty with male celebrities, and they still do not lose in every game.
Xu Siyue looked irritated and turned her attention back to Deep Blue Technology.
The company was founded more than three years ago. Relying on the personal ability of its boss and chief engineer Gu Xuechen, it started from scratch and occupied the smart voice assistant market in a very short time. It won the cooperation of major well-known mobile phone and electrical appliance manufacturers, completely subverting the
Similar products in the past were mechanically stiff.
Based on this, Deep Blue Technology has officially entered the field of artificial intelligence. Now it has become a leader in the industry in terms of technology and strength in the development of its main robots. Its current market value has stably exceeded 10 billion and continues to rise. It is regarded by the media as one that is difficult to copy.
myth.
In the crowded and narrow upper-class circle of Mingcheng, Gu Xuechen is a truly coveted upstart.
Xu Siyue held on to the phone, unable to explain how she felt.
Three years ago, Gu Xuechen hadn't graduated from college yet. She knew that he was a genius-level academic who was extremely professional and had a great business acumen, but she never imagined that he could reach this level.
Only at this moment did Xu Siyue realize that she knew so little about Gu Xueden. She only remembered how his lips felt and how huggable his waist was, but she didn't know anything else.
A man who can risk his life to pursue his career will certainly not be merciful to enemies who ruin his feelings.
Xu Siyue pulled the quilt over her head and stayed up until almost early in the morning when she finally fell asleep. As a result, she dreamed of Gu Xuechen when she was a boy. He had handsome features, deep eyes, and asked her with red eyes: "Xu Siyue, are you interested?"
Huh? Do you know what pain is?"
When Xu Siyue woke up from the shock, she was covered in sweat and stared at the roof helplessly, with a vague premonition of horror.
She hit the iron plate...
This time it might really be over.
Liang Yan's family was one of the invitees to the charity auction, so it was easy to get an extra invitation letter.
This kind of auction has always been a fun place for young ladies. Xu Siyue knew that there would be many familiar faces at the scene, so she prepared three hours in advance and tried to make her makeup perfect.
She was still wearing the dress from yesterday, and no matter how hard it was to accept, it was the only new style of the season that she could get away with.
Before going out, she put on herself a flaming red lip with an aura of 2.8 meters.
The head can be cut off, but the formation and legs cannot be messed up.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Xu Siyue arrived at the entrance of the Opera House in Liang Yan's car. The place had already been cleared, and there were no ordinary audiences. The lights in the direction of the hall were gorgeous, and the view was filled with limited edition luxury cars and custom-made dresses.
Xu Siyue subconsciously clenched her handbag.
The situation that she used to be most comfortable with now only feels resisted.
Liang Yan explained softly: "It's a grand event tonight, and there are quite a few female stars, all trying to get into power. I heard..."
She looked at Xu Siyue: "Gu Xuechen is also on the invitation list, but it's a pity that he never likes this kind of excitement and won't come. Those high-minded young ladies seem to be unable to meet the fans of their idols.
I’ve been crying over this for a long time.”
Xu Siyue frowned: "Why did you mention him again?"
Liang Yan hugged her shoulders affectionately: "Siyue, I saw that you were upset and wanted to persuade you. Gu Xueden is in the spotlight. I thought about it. What he said last night was probably to scare you to vent his grievances.
, given his current position, you know how valuable marriage is, how could it be used as a means of revenge, right?"
Xu Siyue had a headache when she heard Gu Xuechen's three words, and raised her chin proudly: "It's best like this."
Liang Yan smiled: "Then you go in first. Yang Yu and the others are here. I'll go find you after saying hello to the elders."
Entering the opera house, outside is the circular reception room, and further inside is the auction venue. Xu Siyue's fingers were holding the bag very hard, her thin back was straight, she turned a blind eye to the eyes around her that were looking at her, and her red lips were tight.
As I stood, I kept thinking in my heart.
My aunt's aura never fails and she will always be a top socialite.
When my aunt was the leader, you and I were all scum.
In line with the name of charity, the living room was decorated as a low-key and simple reception, but it did not prevent the women from competing for beauty. Xu Siyue saw a pair of bright diamond earrings from a distance, which belonged to one of her former little sisters, Yang Yu.
There were dozens of people next to Yang Yu who were also her acquaintances. They often played with her back then. She was generous and loved to pay for the bills, and she had the best family background. Naturally, she was in the C position in the circle of sisters.
Xu Siyue relaxed a little and walked straight towards them. However, before she reached them, she heard Yang Yu's unconcealed sneer.
"What do you think she is going to do when she returns to China? To humiliate herself? Is she expecting to continue to be a domineering little princess?"
"The little princess is definitely hopeless, and the lost dog is about the same. Didn't everyone say that Xu Cheng sold her? I wonder if she was sold to some wretched grandfather as his love interest."
"I feel disgusted when I think of how arrogant she used to be. She deserves to be thrown into the mud."
Yang Yu agreed, and hummed with satisfaction: "Her mother was just a third-rate painter, and she only gained fame because she died early. I spent money to buy that painting just to wait for the opportunity to embarrass her. Today
I just happened to catch it, but I don’t know if Miss Xu, who sold herself as a love interest, has a few dollars left in her bag and dares to come——"
Xu Siyue stood three meters away, staring at Yang Yu expressionlessly.
She slowly breathed a sigh of relief, took out a small box from her handbag, opened the lid, poured out a very small candy, and put it between her lips reservedly.
The sour and sweet taste of grapefruit immediately fills the mouth, diluting the original bitterness in the mouth.
Yang Yu was getting excited as he spoke, with the most proud smile on his face. Xu Siyue hooked the tip of his tongue and just managed to swallow the candy.
It's useless to calm down.
The next second, Xu Siyue decisively picked up a glass of brandy from the table next to her, stepped forward with her slender legs, her high heels clanging on the ground, and she was close to Yang Yu's side in a few steps.
She neatly stretched out her hand, grabbed Yang Yu's shoulder, raised the wine glass high, and poured it directly over her head.
