Annoyed, she didn't expect that the topic would suddenly turn to her, and she didn't think of how to respond. She just smiled awkwardly.
"Sorry, I was so excited when I met the famous Mr. He for the first time. I hope you can be considerate. I also wish that Mr. He will live longer than the southern mountains and be as blessed as the East Sea. May everything be prosperous and in good health every year." Isn't that just picking up good words?
I mean, it's a piece of cake.
Lan Yu smiled with satisfaction, turned to stare at the little woman, his eyes were extraordinarily gentle, and his voice seemed to be full of tenderness as he said: "Mr. He, look, she is indeed... very individual, and her mouth is sweet.
I like it very much.”
He Canglan was stunned and suddenly laughed, "She is indeed a lovely beauty. I hope Mr. Lan will continue to taste her sweet taste."
The two looked alike and smiled.
Nani! Xia Baoer has heard something different now! Damn it, she started making dirty jokes, shameless! Two shameless male studs!
She couldn't help but frown, and looked at him with suspicious eyes, wondering in her heart, what kind of tricks does this guy want to play?
Cold~
So cold~~
The moment she looked sideways at Lan Yu, a gust of cold wind blew up her back for no reason, and she shivered inexplicably. She felt sensitively in her heart that there was an invisible cold gaze, staring at him intensely.
she.
As she was thinking in confusion, she heard Lan Yu say to the intimidating middle-aged man beside her, "Mr. Lan, they are here."
As they turned around to look, when they saw the person coming from the opposite side, Xia Baoer's eyes suddenly widened and his face changed color in shock.
What, what's going on...why him!
Her whole body felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her brain was temporarily paralyzed, and the shock in her heart was in vain. Huge waves, wave after wave, hit her hard, and she could not calm down in her heart at night.
Here, why... why is he here?
The smile that was already fake froze when she saw him.
She held her breath and watched them approach, her whole body in a daze.
Lan Yu shrewdly noticed her strange change, stared at her with lower eyes, and whispered: "You look very bad, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
The dumbfounded Xia Baoer didn't answer or look at him. He was still shocked and stunned.
"Xia Bao'er? What's wrong with you?" His tone was extremely gentle and affectionate. Seeing that she didn't react to his words at all, in desperation, he suddenly stretched out his hand and caressed her cheek, so automatically and naturally that he seemed to be very familiar with her.
, the relationship is different from that of ordinary people.
The ambiguous movements not only brought back Xia Baoer's turbulent heart, which seemed to be floating on the ocean. It also made the heart of the man opposite him suddenly tighten, and his cold and charming face suddenly became gloomy. The woman holding his arm also
Quietly he lowered his eyes.
The four people facing each other had different emotions and thoughts.
"I didn't expect Mr. Lan to be so considerate to your sweet little girlfriend. It seems that it really surprised many people. It really has a special charm." A casual remark made the atmosphere condense and depressive in an instant.
He Canglan's sharp eyes looked back and forth at them suspiciously.
The atmosphere was very urgent. Fortunately, an acquaintance not far away came towards He Canglan and said hello with a smile: "Brother He, congratulations." The low and hoarse call came from an old man with a kind face.
Seeing this, He Canglan narrowed his dangerous eyes with a smile, exited the strange circle of four, smiled lightly and nodded to Lan, "I'll go over and say hello first. You young people can communicate more and have a good time chatting."
In the circle with four eyes facing each other, the atmosphere continued to be silent.
Xia Baoer's little hand on Lan Yu's arm tightened, and her eyes met with the man opposite. She was surprised, puzzled, and confused. When she saw the beauty holding his arm beside him, she felt a little blank.
In the end, his cold eyes turned into a touch of stubborn calm.
He is a man of great rank, and attending such a big event is not ordinary. She has also seen the wealth of his private island, which is enough to prove that he has the strength and charm to appear here.
As for the women around him, it is even more normal. Who among the wealthy and handsome men would lack one or a few lovers?
She thought too much and her face turned a little pale.
"Xia Baoer? If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me the truth and don't show off your temper." Her discomfort was so obvious, but she just didn't want to admit it, and he couldn't pick her up and hide her in the box upstairs in front of everyone.
Nan Muli still looked cold and cold, and hiding emotions was just a piece of cake for him. So his face was expressionless, and when he looked at the woman who was particularly pitiful tonight, his eyes became colder and colder.
No emotion.
The suffocating silence was broken by a delicate and soft voice, "Brother, I'm coming." He Chuchu, no! She was Lan Yu's sister Lan Xinrou at this time.
She shyly hugged the tall and handsome Nan Muli beside her, and she cried out with a sweet smile.
"Well, it's good to be here. If you're tired, go upstairs to rest with Mr. Nan." Lan Yu smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, looking at her with a gentle face, showing the affection between brother and sister just right.
Only He Chuchu knew about this man. He didn't treat her as he showed outside. He only treated her with extreme humiliation and cruel torture. Gentleness was just an illusion he had in front of everyone.
She really didn't understand the reason why he did this, but now she was too lazy to bother guessing. Before she saw Nan Muli, she was very worried, fearing that in the rumors, he was so ugly and a murderous demon.
But he gave her a sense of security that she could rely on with confidence.
As long as she can get his pity, she can leave Lan Yu's duplicity!
Seeing the two brothers and sisters exchanging greetings, the bored Xia Baoer quietly looked at the woman. After thinking for a while, he suddenly remembered that she was the girl she met by chance on her first day at work.
Yes! She said she was his sister.
However, since she is his sister, why doesn't she have the same surname? The name she whispered to her was He Chuchu, not Lan Chuchu? And why did she...appear with Nan Muli again? Are they old acquaintances?
"Baby, let's get to know each other." Lan raised her chin affectionately and introduced her tenderly: "This is my sister Lan Xinrou. Next to her is the president of the independent Yanri Group under Black Yan. Today's grand meeting
Master He Canglan's adopted son is also my sister's..." He narrowed his eyes and stared at her, paused deliberately, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, too subtle to be noticed, "My sister's fiancé, my future brother-in-law.
Master Xiao Shi."
CEO? Fiancé, brother-in-law, Young Master Shi? And adopted son... Xiao Shi?
These strange and alienated names made Xia Baoer suddenly open his eyes wide, his face turned pale in shock, and his heart was filled with astonishment.
It turns out that she really knows nothing about him, and he has never revealed anything to her. Does he really think she is new and wants to try something new before marriage?
This sudden information was like a bomb, suddenly thrown into her heart and exploded. Her heart was almost unbearable and almost burst.
It turns out that they are all from this circle and are about to become a family. She is the only one who is outside this circle. No wonder she feels so uncomfortable. It turns out that people from different worlds feel so alienated...
Seeing the changing expression on her face, Lan Yu squinted his eyes, becoming more and more interested.
"It's such an honor to meet Young Master Ten here. It's harder to meet you than to meet the president." Lan Yu extended his hand to Nan Muli and called him by his alias with a smile. He didn't want to break any taboos in front of him.
things.
Still looking at him expressionlessly, Nan Muli stretched out his hand. The moment his two palms clasped together, they exerted force in unison, creating an invisible contest.
The expressions of these two outstanding people remained unchanged, and the veins in their palms were surging. A strange and dangerous aura was flowing between them, and others could even feel the terrifying airflow emanating from the air.
Xia Baoer secretly looked at Nan Muli's cold handsome face. He Chuchu first looked at Lan Yu, and then turned to look at Nan Muli. The two women had the same confused look on their faces. They didn't know what they were doing.
For a moment, the two men stopped their hands at the same time with a tacit understanding, as if nothing had happened.
Lan Yu smiled and reached out to hug the beauty beside him. When his eyes narrowed to see the cold light from Nan Muli, he calmly said: "Master Ten, let me introduce to you. This is my exclusive personal secretary Xia Baoer. Honey,
Say hello to Master Ten."
Young Master Ten?
Startled for a moment, Xia Baoer couldn't help but frown as she didn't know what kind of medicine they were selling.
She always thought that his name was Nan Muli, but that was not the case! He was the adopted son of Mr. He, but instead of calling him He Muli, he called him Nan Muli. Lan Yu called him Master Ten instead of Master Nan...
She suddenly felt that his world was so complicated and difficult to understand, and she couldn't get into it at all.
She has always been just his lonely pastime. From beginning to end, she has never understood this man, and she doesn't even know his true full name and identity. How ironic...
Nan Muli, who had been looking at her coldly and said nothing, suddenly stretched out his hand towards her, and said in a familiar low voice with a cold and unfamiliar tone: "Hello, Miss Xia."
She looked at him in astonishment, what did this mean?
Why did he greet her suddenly, and...with such a cold voice?
It seemed like they were just strangers who had never met before.
His indifference unintentionally deeply hurt her heart.
Appeared out of nowhere and left without saying a word.
Now he appears again, with another woman on his arm, who is someone else's fiancé, a CEO whose status is admired, and the young master of a wealthy underworld family.
It's so ridiculous, she's such an idiot, she's just a tool for their rich men to have fun...
She felt sad in her heart, she didn't want to pay attention to him, and because she was in a public place, she would be the only one who would be accused of being uncultivated if she refused other people's advances. She raised her little face stubbornly, and she reluctantly stretched out her little hand and pulled with all her strength.
He raised his lower lip, but found that he couldn't even smile.
The palm of his hand still felt the warmth he was familiar with, and the coldness she was familiar with.
Each other's hearts were throbbing inexplicably, and his unfathomable black eyes could capture people's souls without any deliberate effort. They were just so cold that they were scary.
She doesn't want to...the soft palm is struggling hard and can't wait to escape.
It took a lot of effort to suppress the waves in her chest, and Xia Baoer was able to face him calmly.
She felt the angry power coming from her palm, holding on with destructive strength. She was startled, raised her eyes and looked into his locked black eyes, as if he wanted to devour her.
A chill ran down her spine, and she retracted her arm slightly, only to find that her little hand was in his control and could not be freed.
"Li..." No, it should be the Tenth Young Master. "Tenth Young Master, please let go!" The cold and distant tone contained an unobvious sarcasm, which made Nan Muli frown slightly.
He wanted to open his mouth to speak, but finally gave up. He let go of her hand without any nostalgia and turned a blind eye to her with his cold eyes.
After being freed, Xia Baoer felt desolate and nervous in her heart. She didn't care about anything. She took Lan Yu's arm and looked like a gentle bird clinging to her. She couldn't care about that much anymore...
It's all a scam and a show anyway.
At this time, the lights at the banquet were dimmed and soft music was playing. She did not dare to accept the cold gaze from the opposite side. She lowered her chin and whispered to Lan Yu who was watching the show next to her: "Do you want to dance?"
Glancing at her, Lan Yu opened the corners of his mouth in a charming arc, with a "female-only" smile on his handsome face, and stretched out his hand towards her as a gentlemanly invitation, "Of course, this is my honor."
Without hesitation, she put her little hand into his open palm. She smiled brightly, sweetly and charmingly, and her bright eyes were as bright as a star.
Holding the beauty's soft and warm little hand, Lan Yu said apologetically to Nan Muli and his sister: "Let's go dance first. Master Ten, I will leave my sister to you. I'm sorry."
He frowned, but just nodded silently. He Chuchu on the side observed secretly, tightening his hanging little hands.
Staring at them sliding onto the dance floor, Nan Muli's eyes were cold and frightening, and his handsome face was like a stormy dark environment, extremely dangerous. This made He Chuchu around him feel even more uneasy.
After getting some distance away from them, Xia Baoer, who was in Lan Yu's arms, suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Leaving Nan Muli's cold gaze, her smile disappeared. Without looking at Lan Yu, she opened her hands and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lan, I can't dance."
Raising his eyebrows, Lan Yu smiled nonchalantly: "I can teach you, it's very easy." He grabbed her little hand again forcefully, he didn't want to end it like this.
"I don't want to jump anymore, I'm so sorry." She wanted to escape and bluntly rejected his kindness.
"I know you are just using this as an excuse to avoid someone you don't want to face, so...?" His sharp eyes seemed to see through her little thoughts, and his face suddenly became cold, "I don't like being treated by others.
Use it, or exchange it for a value worthy of being used.”
Xia Baoer was startled, feeling a little flustered, and subconsciously avoided eye contact between the two of them, "I'm sorry, although you sound like you are very powerful, I really don't know what you are talking about."
"I didn't seem to say that your clean and charming eyes can't hide any secrets in your heart?" The slender fingers suddenly lifted her chin, forcing her to slightly raise her head to face him, and whispered with evil thoughts.
Like, he pressed deeply into her ears, "Baby, you have won the lottery. You can either continue playing or be shattered to pieces. You can only choose one of them."
