The hall was still as lively and noisy as before he left. His appearance immediately caused a new round of commotion, but he turned a blind eye to those eyes that were either fiery, expectant, or adoring, and still walked with his unhurried steps
He walked towards the target direction with steady steps. Since she said she wanted him to wait for him, he should stand in the most conspicuous position so that she could see him at a glance. And those who saw him would automatically give him
Make a way out and let him pass unimpeded.
Suddenly, a black figure floated past the corner of his eyes, and the smell of perfume that floated over was very much like the smell of someone. He looked intently, and saw Kazuko wearing a black evening dress, exposing most of her back, facing her.
Looking at a group of people, she smiled elegantly. Then, she turned around and met Leng Xing's appraising eyes.
Leng Xing strode over.
Hezi jumped away and Leng Xing's face became even colder. He caught up with her and grabbed her wrist. She was not in a hurry and let him hold it. She used her only movable right hand to hold it.
Wine glass.
"Hand it over!" Leng Xing said calmly.
However, Hezi ignored him, chuckled at him, and asked: "Chairman Leng, do you want a drink?"
Leng Xing was not in the mood to waste words with her, so he stretched out his hand in front of her.
Hezi asked with a smile: "What do you want me to give to you? To give my heart to you? My heart has been given to you a long time ago!"
"Stop being wordy and give me the shell quickly." There was no expression on Leng Xing's face, but Hezi knew that he had reached the limit of his endurance.
She curled her lips and said, "Isn't it just a shell? Give it to me. I'll find you a much prettier one another day."
"Give it to me!" Leng Xing tightened his grip on her hand, which made her face change in pain. But she didn't scream or scream, and just asked casually: "Is that shell so important?"
"Of course!" Leng Xing replied firmly.
"My hand will be broken by your crushing." Hezi said in aggrieved tone.
Leng Xing let go of her hand, and there were already five fingerprints on her wrist. He was slightly startled, but he didn't expect that he had dealt such a heavy hand without knowing it: "I'm sorry."
Seeing the pitifully small concern in his eyes, Kazuko only felt happy, but she didn't feel the pain in her arm. She had been in love with him since she was four years old. Over the years,
In order to attract his attention to her, she did a lot of things, but he was always as indifferent to her as boiled water. She thought that this was not the way to go, and she had to make him feel that she was special to him. This time when she came here, she
The purpose is to impress him with her.
"Look, it's all red!" She saw him let go of his hand and said in a grievance tone.
"Hand it over." Leng Xing said calmly without saying anything else.
Just as there was a commotion here, the lights in the entire venue suddenly went out, and all the guests let out a cry, but Leng Xing made no other moves, and saw no chaos, and continued to stare at Kazuko.
A bunch of red lanterns were lit in the darkness, which had a very classical Chinese feel. There was a young girl in purple clothes dancing on it. Behind the lantern, there was a girl in a purple princess dress, with her left hand in her left hand.
With Chu Shitian on her arm and Bing Meng on her right hand, with a platinum princess crown on her head and a sweet smile on her face, she walked towards the hall gracefully. At this moment, she seemed to have descended from heaven to earth.
The angel is also like a princess coming out of a fairy tale world.
Leng Xing's heart pounded, and he felt his ears ringing, and his eyes were blurry. He couldn't hear any sound, couldn't see anything, and there was only that purple figure left in front of him. For a moment, he saw
The girl who was more than ten years ago also wore such a princess dress and had the same smile. The only difference was that her face no longer had the childishness of that little girl. Instead, it had the shyness of a girl.
.
Leng Chen was also stunned. In his very young memory, there seemed to be a little girl wearing a purple princess dress. The little girl asked him to bring shells to her, and even hung herself with a hook, saying that it would not last for a hundred years.
Changed. He thought funnyly, then raised his head and looked at Ziyi.
The lights in the hall suddenly turned on, and the surrounding crowd applauded warmly after being stunned for a moment.
Chu Shitian looked at everyone with a smile, including media reporters. Originally, the people he invited were people from various industries. He was not idle when he came back these days. He was contacting various places and was preparing to open a branch here.
company. Today’s party should be a starting point for him to develop his career in this city again. For famous companies, senior figures in every city will pay attention to them. He looked at the effect of his appearance and was very satisfied. The guests just now were impressed by their
I was shocked when I came out.
He waved his hand, walked to the microphone, and said: "Today is my goddaughter, Ziyi's eighteenth birthday party. I am very happy that everyone can take the time to attend. It has been more than ten years since I left this city, and today
I am able to come back here to develop my career again, thanks to your support, and I hope you all have a great time today."
There was warm applause from the audience, and many people asked questions. It was very lively.
Ziyi stared at Chu Shitian with wide eyes, goddaughter? When did I become his goddaughter? Chu Shitian winked at her and walked off the stage.
As soon as some media reporters saw Chu Shitian coming down, they immediately rushed over and asked questions. They all felt that this was news worth reporting. It was also broadcast live to the TV station.
"Dear viewers, here is the latest news from this station. The famous entrepreneur Mr. Chu Shitian suddenly disappeared from this city more than ten years ago. His disappearance was a big loss to the city's economy. But ten years ago
Many years later, he returned to his hometown again, ready to make his contribution to the businesses of his hometown people. Not long ago, he donated 100,000 US dollars to the city's charities and donated books to the city's library.
At present, he is the most caring entrepreneur who has returned from abroad. Today is his goddaughter's eighteenth birthday. He must love this goddaughter very much. He held a grand birthday PART for her in the Sunshine Hotel. She
His daughter, Miss Chu, attended the party with him..."
Yuki has been hesitating whether she should go or not. Looking at her daughter on TV, she couldn't help but stand up and start getting dressed. She thought to herself that this was the last time she would see her.
.That is my daughter, the flesh that fell off my body. If I don’t go and see her, she will probably have nightmares every day.
In another part of the city, in the villa where Bing Meng lived before.
Du Yifang has been sleeping since she returned from the plane yesterday. She just woke up now. After thinking about it, she turned on the TV to see the news about the city, but as soon as she turned it on, she saw the scene just now. She'
She threw away the remote control with a bang and stood up. Her chest heaved violently, her hands rested on the table, and her fingers twitched. Then she picked up the phone on the table and dialed quickly.
a number.
"Help me find out which floor and which room of the Sunshine Hotel is hosting the birthday party."
"Yes! Madam."
The news on the TV is still going on, and a reporter is reporting on the scene: "Now let's start making wishes. We have reached the climax of the banquet. Ah, there is a little chaos at the door. Let's go see what happened." Then the camera switched to the scene that caused the commotion.
At the door, Yuki was walking over. Although she was dressed very conservatively, wearing a hat and a pair of glasses, someone still recognized her, causing a crowd of star-chasing men and women to shout loudly.
Chu Shitian's whole body felt like an electric shock, and he was stunned on the spot.
Staring at the woman on the screen and Chu Shitian's expression, Du Yifang dropped the phone in her hand with a bang, and her legs shook violently. There was a heat in her chest that couldn't be released. She held on to the table, closed her eyes, and pointed her fingers.
Spasming.
Finally, she stabilized her emotions, and then she began to look like herself. She wore a light blue evening dress, revealing her small shoulder blades. The hem of the dress was decorated with a row of patterns and was slit from the knees.
to her calves, showing off her slender legs. She took a look in the mirror and put a pearl necklace around her neck. Looking at the wrinkles on her face and the vicissitudes at the corners of her eyes in the mirror, she gently used her fingers to
Caressing his face gently,
She sighed suddenly and said to herself: "Oh... I am really old!"
There was a knock on the door, and she raised her voice: "Come in."
The servant came in respectfully and said, "Madam, the car is ready."
She didn't look back and hummed. When she closed her eyes, she seemed to still be able to see the little girl back then, looking at her with those angry eyes. When she faced her, there was always an inexplicable anger.
Whenever she encountered something unhappy, she would vent it out on her. But when she was ten years old, she left the city and voluntarily gave up all her rights. She only asked that she be allowed to study abroad, and she agreed.
After so many years, she never saw her again. Now, seeing her face, the hatred in her heart began to gather again little by little.
When the phone rang, she answered the call: "It's been checked. The party is in the *** room on the ** floor."
She stood up, the emotion on her face was gone, replaced by a majestic look, and a hint of anger in her eyes.
The hall is now full of joy and laughter. Everyone is playing happily, eating happily, and chatting happily with friends. Qianxing and Feiyang, as well as Wang Jingming, Cheng Yu, Mei Ruo, and Liu Songyu, all cheered.
He pulled Ziyi over and listened to Chengyu telling jokes and stories. Ziyi listened with a smile and felt happier than ever before.
Leng Chen looked at her hesitantly, wanting to go over there, but he felt awkward about how to speak, so he hesitated and was at a loss.
Leng Xing walked over slowly and said to Leng Chen: "Isn't the girl you miss so much right in front of you? What? Mr. Leng is also sometimes afraid?"
"Brother, I..."
"I know, you guys had a fight, didn't you?"
"Yeah." Leng Chen lowered his head.
"If you don't want to lose her, you have to apologize to her. If you stay here any longer, how will you give away your gift?"
Leng Chen raised his head and asked in shock: "How do you know?"
Leng Xing raised his head, without looking at him, and said to himself: "My parents can't ask anyone else about you except me, and you always like to do things unexpectedly, so I have to find someone to ask about you at any time.
It’s up to you. Go quickly, if you don’t go, others will take the lead.”
Leng Chen looked over and saw that Cheng Yu was saying something, making Zi Yi giggle. He took a deep breath and then strode towards Zi Yi. Looking at his back as he walked over, Leng Xing
I said in my heart: Ziyi, although I know that you are the little girl back then, I think you may have forgotten that promise a long time ago. So, I just hope that you can be happy. But that shell,
I will definitely go to Kazuko's place to get it back.
When Zi Yi was laughing with them, her eyes saw a familiar figure. She stopped laughing and stopped talking. She just looked at the person and walked slowly in front of her. Everyone else followed suit.
Looking over with her eyes, everyone suddenly became quiet. Leng Chen was walking towards her, with a smile on his face. Ziyi looked at him blankly, watching him walking over like that, she seemed
She only heard her own breathing, and the people around her all moved away from her, away...
Leng Chen stood in front of her and looked at her quietly.
She also looked at him quietly.
He called her: "Xiaoyi."
There were gradually traces of tears in her eyes, but she held her breath and held back hard, not wanting them to fall. She bit her lip hard and stared at him.
Leng Chen suddenly pulled her over, pulled her into his arms, and hugged her hard and hard. Ziyi's tears finally slipped from her eyes, and she let him hold him, feeling him
He seemed to be hugging her with all his strength, feeling the long-lost warmth on his body.
Breathing, her heart could not help but beat wildly. She forgot to push him away, and she also forgot that he almost hit her to death. She felt like she was back to those days when she hugged him.
"Xiao Yi, I'm back!" Leng Chen let go of his hand, looked into her eyes, and said seriously.
Ziyi suddenly woke up, threw his hand away, and shouted: "What does it have to do with you coming back? You can go wherever you like. Do you need to tell me?"
Leng Chen raised his shocked eyes and looked at the girl he had not seen for more than ten days. Why is her face so pale? Why is her spirit so poor? Why has she lost so much weight? He can't understand, yes, he will never
They didn’t understand. Ziyi looked at him sadly and thought in her heart: You will never know that it was you who almost killed me, and it was you who almost never opened my eyes to see the world again. But, I
I don’t hate you, I can’t hate you at all. Maybe the separation that day was destined to separate us.
He grabbed her shoulders and asked in surprise: "Why have you become so thin and haggard? Is it because of me?"
Ziyi wanted to shake off his hand, but she couldn't. She shouted, "Let me go."
"I won't let you go unless you tell me the reason." He grabbed harder, he wanted to know the truth of the matter. If she really missed him so much, why didn't she call him? Ziyi cast her pleading eyes on Leng Xing,
Leng Xing was silent for a moment, then walked up and said to Leng Chen: "She is the heroine tonight. You are messing with her like this and asking her how to greet others? If you have anything to say, we can talk to her outside later.
"
Leng Chen glanced at his most beloved brother and let go of his hand.
Bing Meng was looking for Ziyi everywhere, and happened to see her here, so she ran over and pulled her away: "Hurry up, why are you here? No one can be found, the birthday cake has been pushed in
Here you go, hurry up and get ready to make a wish."
Ziyi was pulled forward, Leng Chen's hands could no longer hold her, and she was allowed to follow her sister. She turned back and glanced at him, and that look made Leng Chen's heart go crazy
After a shock, he always had an ominous premonition, as if this was the end of their lives. Then she followed Bing Meng and disappeared from the crowd.
Not long after, an exciting voice came from the microphone: "Now that the birthday cake has been delivered, let me and our birthday girl make a wish together."
The guests cheered loudly.
In front of the birthday cake, Ziyi, Bingmeng, and Chu Shitian stood, listening to the singing of happy birthday. The candles were lit, the lights were turned off, and the whole hall suddenly became silent. Only Ziyi was seen standing on the candle
In front of the fire, close your eyes and make a wish devoutly.
Everyone is looking at her, everyone is paying attention to her.
Jiang Qin: Ziyi, I hope you can be happy forever. I have already regarded you as my second sister.
Feiyang: Xiaoyi, what kind of wish would you make? Are you the girl crying on the beach fourteen years ago? The girl who called me Little Plum?
Leng Chen: Yes, why do I feel so far away from you at this moment? It's so far away that I can't touch it, which makes me feel an unusual sense of fear. No matter what unpleasantness we had in the past, I am here sincerely.
I don't want to leave you, so please stop being so indifferent to me, okay?
Leng Xing: Xiaoyi, I*, maybe God allowed us to meet just to let me cover my lonely soul with a thin blanket. When you leave, that thin blanket can no longer resist the cold wind.
However, I just want you to be happy. I just want you to have a happy life of your own. Therefore, I will work hard to make you and my brother happy.
Bing Meng turned her head and looked at her: Ziyi, I'm sorry, I can't let you know that your father is my father. I hope you can forget the things I did to you when you were a child. I will definitely treat you well in the future.
.
There were traces of tears in the corners of Chu Shitian's eyes. He looked at Ziyi's slightly closed eyes and looked at her face that looked more and more like Aman. It seemed that he saw the little girl again who was like a princess in a fairy tale at the beach.
.
Ziyi's eyes slowly opened, and she mustered up enough energy to blow out all the candles. Then there was a burst of lively applause, and the lights were turned on.
There was another commotion. A commotion at the door made Chu Shitian raise his head and look at Yuki. His body swayed a few times, as if he was about to fall down in the next moment. Bing Meng supported him worriedly, and he
I didn't feel anything at all, I just stared at the person who should have been dead long ago.
Yuki also saw him. Those years, those future events, flashed before her and his eyes one by one.
Yuki came over and stood in front of Chu Shitian, as if in a dream.
Ziyi looked at them with a pair of doubtful eyes. When those reporters who were ready to make a move saw the security guards, they were still prepared to dig out the important news first.
Reporters swarmed over and asked, "Mr. Chu, are you and Ms. Yuki old acquaintances?"
"Mr. Chu, how did you come to invite the now popular movie star Yuki to your goddaughter's birthday party?"
After all, Chu Shitian is a man who has seen the world. When he saw the reporters who were about to lose control, he waved his hand: "Today is a birthday party, not a press conference. If you have anything unclear, you can wait until after the party to find out more."
Only then did the reporters quiet down.
Yuki asked softly: "Is she your 'god' daughter?"
Chu Shitian looked excited and stretched out his hand to hug her, but looking at the people present, the hand he was about to extend fell down again. Then both of them gathered their emotions, and Yuki said with a smile:
"Mr. Chu, thank you for your invitation. I shouldn't be late."
Chu Shitian also smiled and replied: "No, we are just about to cut the cake."
Yuki said: "Then you start cutting." After offering his gift, he stood aside.
Chu Shitian gave the fruit knife to Ziyi, and he also took one and was about to cut it------
Suddenly, a cold and dignified voice came from the door: "Wait a minute."
Du Yifang's face was calm, but the seriousness in her eyes made everyone want to beat a little drum in their hearts. Her majesty, her nobility, her momentum, and her people. She has always been the subject of discussion in the business consortium.
, she has always been a mythical person, because the entire Asia has the power of the Du family, and these are all attributed to her, but she rarely shows up. Everyone looked at this daughter of the Du family who rarely showed up,
Start whispering.
"I heard she is the richest woman in the city."
"Yes, she seems to be on the world's richest list."
"What's the matter? I heard that her husband was snatched away more than ten years ago."
Du Yifang's eyes passed over the heads of those who were whispering, and everyone was silenced by her gaze. She stood in front of Chu Shitian, staring at Ziyi. The entire lively hall,
Suddenly there was silence, everyone was staring at the person Du Yifang saw, today's protagonist Ding Ziyi.
