Chapter 229 My Party
It has been three days since I returned home, but I have not stepped out of the villa door. This seems to have become a thorny problem in the eyes of my father and brother. Sometimes they look at me with a trace of worry. I know
, they were afraid that I would close myself off, but actually, I just didn’t know what to do out there.
I feel good about hiding at home every day, taking care of the flowers and plants, and playing with some vegetation in the back garden. There seems to be some noise outside, but all I need is peace and tranquility!
Yue Ming has been invited to work in the company. Although he is only a small department manager, it is already very satisfying for him. I heard that in the past two days, he has been doing well in the company and has become very successful with the department.
Everyone there got along well, and even my brother praised him for his extraordinary ability to adapt when he got home. Given time, he will definitely do better. I never doubted his ability to work, nor did I doubt his communication skills.
Ability, he is a perseverant person, in Hong Kong, he once again found the passion for life!
On this day, my father and brother came back extra early. When I came out of the back garden, they had already walked out of the garage.
He reached out and took off his apron, patted the dirt in his hands, looked at them curiously, and said with a smile: "Dad, brother, why are you so early today?"
"Xiaowei, the reason why dad and brother came back early today is because they have a party to attend in the evening!" Dad smiled and took my dirty hand, and pulled me toward the living room.
"Oh, do you want to come back and get ready? Father's clothes are always arranged by Sister Lan. I'll go upstairs and call her!" After saying that, he was about to go upstairs, but his hand was held tightly by his father.
I turned around and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
My brother walked in from outside, smiling like a spring breeze, looking at me mysteriously: "Tonight's party, the protagonist is my sister--Miss Yang Lewei!"
"Ah?" I was so surprised that my jaw almost dropped. What's going on?
"Well, don't blame dad and brother for taking matters into their own hands! It's been almost a month since you've been back, and dad has been receiving care cards about you these days. It's time to hold a party to thank people for their kindness. Xiaowei, you can't do it every day
Hiding at home, through this party, dad wants to tell everyone that my baby girl is back. So, tonight, you are going to dress up and get to know the people around you again, you know?" Dad's gentle eyes
It stayed on my body, and I just lowered my head, just because I was very resistant in my heart, and I was never interested in such a party...
"Dad, I...I..." I really wanted to tell my dad that I didn't want to go, but looking at his expectant smile, the words stuck in my throat couldn't be heard at that moment.
I couldn't speak. After a long time, I nodded tremblingly and said, "Okay!"
"This is the dress I just bought for you. Go and change it. Check if the size fits. If not, my brother will go back and change it for you right away!"
I pursed my lips and took the bag from my brother's hand, nodded, and then walked up the stairs with difficulty.
On the bed was a dress that my brother had just bought. It was beautifully cut, and it looked like it was made by a famous artist. From the workmanship and quality, I could tell that this dress was definitely a limited edition. I flipped through the hangtag of the dress.
Well, if Xia Mo sees this, he will whisper in my ears for a while, right? I guess all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred will come out.
With a helpless smile, my brother's urging voice came from downstairs: "Xiaowei, is the skirt suitable?"
I responded casually: "Appropriate!"
Hey, don’t worry about it anymore, just go and participate. In ancient times, I had never seen any feasts. Why did I get scared when I arrived in Hong Kong? I shook my hair, took off my home clothes, and changed into a white dress with a skirt.
superior.
I sat in front of the dressing table and put on light makeup. I haven't put on makeup for a long time, so my movements felt a bit jerky. After applying a layer of loose powder, I gently gathered my hair into a simple princess hairstyle and took it out of the jewelry box.
A crystal bow hairpin was fixed at the back of her head. After packing up, she took a simple white clutch bag and went downstairs.
Walking down the stairs slowly, my brother's eyes were full of surprise, and Sister Lan and her father also had smiles on their faces.
"Miss, you are so beautiful!" Sister Lan couldn't help but praise.
I blushed and lowered my head. I wanted others to hear me and didn't know how to laugh at me.
"Well, no one in this world can compare to my sister!" My brother also praised unceremoniously, and besides being embarrassed, I also felt very happy. In this world, no matter whether you are beautiful or ugly,
, in the eyes of the people you care about, it will always be extraordinary, always special, and unique. Just like Sister Lan, my father and brother dote on me, for no reason, just because I am who they think I am.
, just the best one.
"Alan, you can go too!" Dad turned back and said to Sister Lan.
"Haha, I won't go. You young people are playing together, why am I, an old man, going to join in the fun?" Sister Lan waved her hand hurriedly.
I walked forward, took Sister Lan's arm, walked to the side and whispered to her: "Sister Lan, who said you are an old man? You go with me, you know that I have never been a party like that.
I like it very much. If you are by my side, I will feel safe, so, would you like to go with me?"
"Isn't there a husband and a young master? How come you don't feel safe?" Sister Lan asked suspiciously.
"It's different. My brother and dad will definitely have to greet guests later and can't stay with me all the time. Sister Lan, come on, come with me, otherwise, I won't go..." I shook Sister Lan's arm,
In the end, I just cheated.
Sister Lan had nothing to do with my move. Even though she knew I was trying to show off my temper, she still very tolerantly agreed to my request.
After the transaction was completed, my father and brother went upstairs to change into new clothes, then started the accelerator of the car and drove towards the skyscraper.
"Is the party being held at the company?" I asked nervously.
"Well, when the building was first built, we planned two floors as a party venue for the company's annual meeting. All the equipment is complete, and there is no need to go to other hotels to reserve a location. In this way, we can save a lot of money a year.
A small expense." My brother held the steering wheel, stepped on the accelerator, and the car drove faster and faster towards the skyscraper.
The car slowly stopped in front of the building. I opened the car door and stood under the stone steps of the building. This bustling city was just like it was two years ago. The night was very charming. I looked up at the tall skyscrapers.
The body is embedded with colorful dazzling lights, which reflect the halo of lights in the night sky, adding endless charm for no reason. Countless luxury cars stopped in front of the door, and the costumes of the people who got off the car were clearly changing.
After telling everyone their status, one of the men holding the blonde girl in his arms walked towards our direction with a smile on his face. Wow, long time no see. Got a new horse?" His charming eyes tightened
Staring at my brother holding my hand. My sister, arvril! I don’t know the situation next time. Don’t talk nonsense.”
The man was scolded by his father, and he bowed in embarrassment. He replied: "Yes, Uncle Yang! Haha, my sister, we must come out to play together next time. I'll treat you. I'm sorry!"
Looking at that unruly smiling face, I just smiled lightly and said, "Thank you! I don't like going out to play!"
My brother rolled his eyes at him, then took my hand and walked straight inside.
The party was held on the 32nd floor. The moment the elevator door opened, I felt dizzy in front of my eyes. The lights were feasting and the crowd was full of familiar and unfamiliar faces. In the center of the huge dance floor, there were pairs of men and women dancing passionate ballroom dances.
, the waiter shuttled among the crowd holding the plate...
My father and brother kept saying hello to the people walking by. I could feel countless eyes cast on me like pillars. Those eyes were full of inquiry, voyeurism, and curiosity. This made me feel...
I felt uncomfortable all over.
Dad kept introducing to the people around him: "This is my baby girl, Xiaowei!"
And I just responded with a stiff smile out of habit.
My brother took me to a quiet place to sit down. He looked at me looking a little unhappy and asked worriedly: "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
I raised my eyes, looked at my brother, smiled, and then shook my head.
"Brother knows that too many things have happened to you in the past two years. Xiaowei, be stronger. You have to learn to let go and reintegrate into life in Hong Kong, you know? My brother held my hand and comforted me.
Sister Lan also patted the back of my hand and said in pain: "Yes, Miss, you need to go out more often. Look at Master Yue Ming, how well does he adapt to it?"
I looked at Yue Ming, who was smiling brightly among the crowd, and smiled slightly. I really can't compare to him in this regard. He is a born optimist!
The music stopped for a moment, and the host walked to the stage with a smile on his face, gave a speech of thanks, and then said the purpose of holding this party. After my name came out of his mouth, my heart tightened
I'm holding on tightly and can't let go.
There was something buzzing in my ears. I covered my ears with my hands and closed my eyes. At this moment, I actually had an urge to escape...
Slippery cold sweat appeared on the palms of my hands. I didn’t know when a pair of warm hands grasped mine. I raised my eyes and met Yue Ming’s tender eyes. Under the dim light, I seemed to see Ye’s coldness.
There is a touch of warmth hidden under the pupils...
"Please, Miss Yang, please say a few words to everyone!" The host's voice came on the stage, and then, the audience burst into thunderous applause... (To be continued. If you like
