In a certain lounge of the banquet building, Shen Leyi was sitting there with a gloomy look on her face. When she saw the woman who came in, she spoke unwillingly.
The person who came was none other than Shen Leyi's mother, Mrs. Shen Zhou Meiqian. Hearing her daughter's complaints, she smiled lightly.
"Silly boy, do you think that besides Mu Jinghao, who else is qualified to dance the opening dance with you? Do you want to embarrass yourself?"
Zhou Meiqian patiently calmed Shen Leyi's emotions, but Shen Leyi was probably spoiled since childhood and couldn't listen to Zhou Meiqian's words.
"I don't want to dance with him, Mommy, don't you know what that guy is thinking? I hate him, and I don't want to dance with him even if I am embarrassed."
Shen Leyi doesn't like anyone except Xiao Zichen now, but Zhou Meiqian has her own considerations.
If she hadn't doted on her daughter so much, she wouldn't have been able to go to Xiao's house last night, but Xiao Zichen's attitude also made her clear that it was time for her daughter to wake up from her dream.
"Okay, stop acting like a child. What's wrong with Mu Jinghao? His father is the director of the Financial Secretary. The key is that he has never been married. This is more suitable for you than Xiao Zichen, and your father If you deliberately promote such a marriage, if you anger your father, Mommy will not be able to protect you."
Zhou Meiqian was kind and powerful at the same time. She knew that she could not control her daughter and had no choice but to move out of her husband.
When Shen Leyi heard this, she cried directly into Zhou Meiqian's arms and said with aggrieved face.
"Mommy, but my daughter doesn't like him at all. Do you think this father will make a deal with me for his own power? If so, I might as well just die, wuwuwu..."
"Okay, okay, don't kill yourself when you talk about this. Mommy has been helping you talk about this, but tonight you have to do the opening dance with Mu Jinghao, otherwise I won't do it with your father. It’s hard to speak, you understand?”
With that said, Zhou Meiqian picked up the tissue on the side and gently wiped the tears from the corners of Shen Leyi's eyes.
"Okay, stop crying. It's not pretty if you cry. You are the protagonist tonight. There are a lot of reporters outside waiting to take pictures of you. You can't be embarrassed, you know?"
After saying that, Zhou Meiqian picked up her makeup bag and touched up Shen Leyi's makeup, and then said with a kind face.
"This is my beautiful and capable baby girl. Let's go, Mu Jinghao is still waiting for you outside."
Shen Leyi frowned slightly after hearing this, but still listened to Zhou Meiqian's words and followed her out of the lounge.
Here, Mo Yurou and Xiao Zichen did not enter the banquet hall directly after leaving the villa, but found a lounge to renovate a little.
Mo Yurou touched up her makeup, while Xiao Zichen stayed by her side quietly. Mo Yurou applied heavy powder on her neck, but the scar was still vaguely visible.
Xiao Zichen stood quietly behind Mo Yurou, frowning slightly as he looked at the protruding shoulder blades on her back. This woman was so thin that she weighed maybe eighty pounds, and there was no trace of voluptuousness on her body.
"Is Luoluo okay at home alone?"
Xiao Zichen felt that the atmosphere was a little condensed, so he found a topic to break the silence.
Mo Yurou was putting on lipstick. After hearing what she said, she said calmly.
"Lolo is very well-behaved. Jessica has been taking care of her since she was born. You don't have to worry too much."
"What about you, don't you take care of me?"
Xiao Zichen asked.
Mo Yurou's hand shook slightly, and then she replied with a faint smile.
"Jessica and I take care of each other together, but she is more professional than me."
Speaking of this, Mo Yurou suddenly thought of something, turned to look at Xiao Zichen, and said again.
"By the way, Luoluo is her nickname. Please give the child a name. Now that she's back, it's time to register for her."
Xiao Zichen was a little surprised when he heard it. He always thought that Luoluo was the child's scientific name, and Xiao Luoluo was also a very nice name.
Xiao Zichen thought for a while and asked.
"Do you have any good suggestions?"
Mo Yurou replied.
"It's up to you, the father, to choose the formal name. I've already given the child a nickname."
After saying that, Mo Yurou looked at the time and said.
"We should go out, it's almost time."
Xiao Zichen nodded, and then pushed Mo Yurou out of the lounge.
The dinner was about to begin, and almost everyone was seated. When Xiao Zichen pushed Mo Yurou into the venue, no one paid attention at first, but I don't know who was the first to say the three words "Mo Yurou", and then
, the originally quiet banquet hall gradually became commotion.
"It's really Mr. Mo."
"It seems that it was true that he said he would go abroad to recuperate. It's just that President Mo looks thinner than a year ago."
"How long has it been since Director Mo came back, and no news has been revealed at all?"
There were intermittent comments all around and reached Mo Yurou and Xiao Zichen's ears. Mo Yurou always had a smile on her face, while Xiao Zichen remained as cold as ever.
"Yurou! It's really you. I heard others say it was you just now. I was still doubting it. You damn woman, where have you been this year?"
Suddenly, an excited voice came from the crowd, and everyone gave way, and then they saw Zhao Ke'er running towards Mo Yurou, wearing a long skirt with a long tail, and looking very imageless.
.
At this moment, Xiao Zichen stood in front of Mo Yurou for an instant. Zhao Keer stopped suddenly, looked at Xiao Zichen, and growled.
"Xiao Zichen, get out of my way."
At this time, Luo Mingxuan also came over, pulled Zhao Keer, and then looked at Xiao Zichen.
Mo Yurou reached out and tugged at the corner of Xiao Zichen's clothes, then looked at Zhao Keer and said softly.
"Ke'er, I'm back."
Xiao Zichen was still standing in front of Zhao Keer. Zhao Keer blew his beard and glared. He was about to speak when he heard Xiao Zichen say.
"She just finished the operation, please be gentle."
After Xiao Zichen finished speaking, he moved slightly to the side.
When Mo Yurou heard this, her heart trembled slightly and she looked at Xiao Zichen with burning eyes.
Zhao Ke'er's expression calmed down at this time, and her eyes fell on Mo Yurou's body. She saw the skinny figure, especially the long hair that she regarded as a treasure. Only one end was less than her ears.
She had short hair, her nose was sore, and she actually shed tears.
"Yurou, why are you so thin? Your hair..."
Looking at the excited Zhao Ke'er, Mo Yurou looked calm, smiled slightly, stretched out her hand to give Zhao Ke'er a big hug, and spoke lightly.
"It's nothing. Wouldn't it look good if I lost some weight? As for my hair, I've had it for so many years. Would it look good if I changed my hair style first?"
Zhao Ke'er knew in her heart that Mo Yurou was trying to comfort her, so she didn't reveal it. She was afraid of hurting Mo Yurou, so she didn't dare to hold her too hard. She could only hold her for a while and then let go.
"Okay, there are too many people here, let's go over there and chat."
At this time, Luo Mingxuan noticed that more and more people were paying attention to them. He whispered a reminder, and then a group of people walked to a corner of the banquet hall.
"Brother Yusheng, we haven't seen each other for so long, don't you miss me?"
On such an important occasion tonight, Fu Yusheng and the others are naturally here. Zhao Ke'er was with them just now, but Fu Yusheng's emotions are more reserved, and he is accompanied by Qin Zhiyan, so he can't be like Zhao Ke'er.
Such excitement.
After meeting, Mo Yurou looked at Fu Yusheng who had been staring at her, smiled slightly, and spoke softly.
"You have no conscience, do you know how worried we are when you leave?"
Fu Yusheng opened his mouth, and he was so excited that he could only say this sentence containing complicated emotions.
Mo Yurou always had a slight smile on her face. When she heard this, she opened her hands and said.
"Didn't I come back now? I won't leave again."
As soon as Mo Yurou said these words, Xiao Zichen on the side breathed secretly, a deep and hot gaze flashed in his deep eyes, and the corners of his mouth inadvertently raised slightly.
"Dr. Mo, long time no see. What a rare visitor!"
At this time, a voice came from the crowd that did not fit the atmosphere. When everyone looked at it, their expressions changed slightly.
"Miss Shen, oh, no, Chairman Shen, long time no see. Today is the annual charity dinner. As the chairman of Yaohua Group, I should attend."
