Qin Muzhen still didn't understand why Qiao Guanli suddenly went out of his way and not only signed the cooperation contract with Di Sheng without hesitation, but also immediately received the first capital injection the day after signing. A total of 300 million yuan.
Name coins, for him now, are definitely a timely help.
The major newspapers and media in City A, under Nie Sheng's instructions, also hid the news about Qin Muzhen and Qiao Raorao. Everything seemed to be going in the direction he had expected.
Before you know it, the weekend has arrived. On this day, Qin Qiao's family celebrated their first cooperation at a cocktail party. Many media rushed to visit for this rare event.
At another hotel on the same day, it was the anniversary of the fifth anniversary of the founding of 'Amore' magazine.
Xia Tong started preparing since the afternoon, looking for a dress, putting on makeup, and combing her hair. She was very busy...
In the room, she thought happily while choosing a dress. Fortunately, Gu Haoran had something to do at the company today and couldn't come back for dinner, so she was free to sneak away to the reception. Otherwise, he would definitely stop her and not let her go out.
of.
She wondered angrily, did he think she was his toy? He was always domineering and wanted to interfere in her life!
Neither this nor that! Who does he think he is to her? Humph!
Xia Tong's eyes lingered on the two dresses for a long time. One was the black fishtail dress that she loved very much, and the other was the red dress that he specially gave her last time.
After hesitating for a while, she still chose the red one. Since it was the fifth anniversary celebration, it was better for her to wear something festive and joyful.
By the time she finished cleaning herself, it was already half past five. Thinking that there were still more than two hours before the reception started, she was not in a hurry and slowly hailed a taxi.
"So..." When she read the name of the hotel, she was stunned. Oops, she seemed to have forgotten, which hotel was it?
How could she be so careless?!
Xia Tong hurriedly took out the invitation card and looked at it. Unexpectedly, the invitation card was stained with something. The name of the hotel was completely black and dirty. Only four words "Soxya Hotel" were vaguely revealed, and the word in the middle was a matter of life and death.
can not tell.
"Miss?" the driver turned around and asked confused.
"Uh..." Xia Tong was sweating, packed up the invitations, and asked carefully: "Excuse me, is there any hotel named Soya?"
The driver thought for a while and then showed a clear expression: "Oh, I know... Sonia! I heard there is a grand cocktail party there tonight. Do you want to go there?"
We arrived at our destination soon and Xia Tong got off the car. When she entered the hotel, because she was well-dressed and the jewelry she wore was luxurious and bright, the security guard at the door thought she was a wealthy lady from some family and let her in without checking.
Already.
Just as soon as he walked into the reception, Xia Tong felt something was wrong. Why were all the people in front of him so strange and strange?
Her eyes curiously wandered around the crowd. Everyone was dressed in gorgeous clothes and behaved appropriately, but there was a sense of distance among them.
She couldn't find An Dayang, she couldn't find Li Cuilian, who was always loud-mouthed, and she couldn't find a group of colleagues in the magazine who loved to joke... What should she do? She was a little panicked.
Subconsciously, her hand touched the 'pocket' on her waist, but she forgot that she was wearing a dress and there were no pockets at all.
No, she wanted to find her mobile phone and call An Dayang.
Where have they gone? Are you kidding her? Why are all of them missing?
Lowering her head, she found that her hands were empty. Where was her cell phone?
Her eyes suddenly widened, her little purse! She remembered that she put her money and mobile phone in that purse. But now - the purse was gone?
The money and mobile phone also disappeared, and now, only——she was left alone?
Xia Tong stood empty in the splendid hotel venue, inch by inch, the cold air filled her heart.
******** *******
A gorgeous feast for the upper class, where everyone is hypocritical and polite, and chats with each other warmly.
After just dealing with an old 'acquaintance', Qin Mu was a little tired. He put down his wine glass and planned to find a lounge to sit in. When he thought of the flattering words of the old 'acquaintance' just now, he wanted to laugh.
When Di Sheng was in danger before, everyone ran away without a trace. Now that they saw that Di Sheng was able to cooperate with Ruihua, there were obvious signs of 'resurrection', so they all came over eagerly.
Although he was disgusted with this kind of pretentious scene, he also understood that in a shopping mall, all kinds of hypocritical masks were the real magic weapon to win.
Smart people know how to hide their sharp edges and strike out at the right time, instead of acting like a fool and exposing them to the whole world.
He didn't get a good rest last night, so he rubbed his forehead tiredly and walked towards the lounge, when a clear and beautiful voice made his steps stop and his heart suddenly tightened.
"Excuse me...is this the Sonia Hotel?" the owner of the voice asked carefully.
The person in question rolled his eyes: "Please, miss, if you don't know this is the Sonia Hotel, how did you get here?"
"I..." Xia Tong was speechless and asked again: "Excuse me, is there a cocktail party here, that is Ai..."
Before she could finish her question, she was interrupted by the waiter: "Yes, there is indeed a cocktail party here, and Miss, where you are now is the venue of the cocktail party."
"I..." She wanted to ask more, but the waiter was already impatient: "I'm sorry, the manager called me, please help yourself..."
After saying that, he left Xia Tong alone on the spot.
He raised the corner of his mouth, and a trace of joy flashed across his face. It was her, he was sure.
Qin Mujue turned around, and just as he was about to follow the voice and look over, a figure walked in front of him, blocking his sight. It was Qiao Guanli.
Although the displeasure in his heart had overflowed, he still managed to hold it back, and smiled and exchanged greetings with Qiao Guanli for a while. However, his eyes couldn't help but look past him and towards the red figure behind him.
Oops, she seems to be heading towards the banquet hall door. Her back looks lonely, where is she going?
It was so confusing that he couldn't hear clearly what Qiao Guanli said? Until the end, Qiao Guanli also discovered his carelessness.
"What's wrong, Mr. Qin, does he seem to be out of his mind?" he asked.
"Sorry." Qin Mujie put down his wine glass and said hurriedly: "Chairman Qiao, I have something urgent to deal with. Please allow me to leave for a while..." After he said that, he could no longer hold back and strode towards the door.
