"Drinking party?" Shi Qiuqiu frowned. She didn't want Qiao Xiaoqing to go drinking with others just to take over the role for her.
"Don't worry, there is a director who is short of a leading lady and wants to talk to me." Qiao Xiaoqing seemed to see Shi Qiuqiu's doubts and explained: "If you hadn't been busy tonight, I would have taken you there, but sister
It can be done by one person, and you will have a good harvest in both your love and career!"
Shi Qiuqiu felt warm in her heart. Just as she was about to say something, she was interrupted by Qiao Xiaoqing. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't say thank you. After you win over Mr. Sheng, remember to take me to the top of my life.
"
Shi Qiuqiu chuckled and couldn't help but hammer Qiao Xiaoqing.
"Okay, I'm running out of time over there. You can only go there alone later. I'm here to wish you success. No, you will definitely succeed!" Qiao Xiaoqing clenched her fist and made a sign that she was bound to win.
"I know, you should drink less at the banquet and call me if you need anything." Shi Qiuqiu nodded and warned.
Qiao Xiaoqing nodded and left.
After Qiao Xiaoqing left, the stylist picked out some jewelry for Shi Qiuqiu.
By the time she came out of the styling room, it was already half past seven. Shi Qiuqiu was a little worried about being late, so she hurried to the restaurant slowly.
When she arrived at the door, she checked that the time was just right and she was not late.
Shi Qiuqiu breathed a sigh of relief, then tidied her clothes nervously before walking in.
"Hello, I have a reservation, Shi Qiuqiu." Shi Qiuqiu reported her name to the waiter, and then followed her to her seat.
Sheng Lijue hasn't come yet, maybe the work hasn't been finished yet.
Shi Qiuqiu thought so and sat down to wait for him.
"Hello, would you like to order now?" the waiter asked politely and handed over the menu.
Shi Qiuqiu shook his head: "I'm waiting for someone, I'll order later."
"Okay." The waiter nodded, poured her a glass of boiled water, and then went about other things.
After waiting for an hour, Shi Qiuqiu kept looking at the time. She made an appointment with Sheng Lijue at eight o'clock yesterday, but it was already nine o'clock now, and Sheng Lijue hadn't come yet.
She couldn't help but call Sheng Lijue, but no one answered.
Are you in a meeting, so it's not convenient for you to answer the phone?
Shi Qiuqiu thought that Sheng Lijue had stayed in S city for a long time to take care of her, and there might be a lot of work piled up, so he might not be able to get away for a while.
So, she waited in the restaurant for another half an hour, but Sheng Lijue still didn't come.
Shi Qiuqiu couldn't stand the waiter's constant gaze on her, so she ordered a dessert.
She picked up her cell phone and wanted to call Sheng Lijue, but she was afraid of disturbing him at work.
Just wait, he promised to come.
Shi Qiuqiu said this to herself, but for some reason, she felt a little uneasy and the dessert in her mouth became bitter.
Time passed like this, the hands pointed to twelve o'clock, and the person she was waiting for still didn't come.
"I'm sorry, miss, we're closing." The waiter came over and whispered, looking at Shi Qiuqiu with a sympathetic look.
"Okay." Shi Qiuqiu lowered his eyes and walked out of the restaurant.
The cold wind at night was blowing, and Shi Qiuqiu couldn't help but shiver, but she woke up.
She didn't know why Sheng Lijue didn't come tonight, but since she had already made her decision, she couldn't give up and must explain the matter clearly to Sheng Lijue.
Thinking of this, Shi Qiuqiu's eyes became firm.
She stopped a car on the side of the road and directly reported the address of Sheng Group
Soon, she arrived at the Sheng Group. The whole building was dark and there was no one else except the security guard on duty.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Sheng left at eight o'clock." The security guard was well-informed and recognized Shi Qiuqiu and knew that her relationship with Mr. Sheng was unusual, so he said quickly.
"Okay, thank you." Shi Qiuqiu walked out of the company a little disappointed.
She called Sheng Lijue a few more times, but still no one answered, and she became a little worried.
Could it be that something happened?
Shi Qiuqiu thought about it, and immediately thought about some accidents, and suddenly became a little panicked.
She tried her best to calm down and stop thinking so much that she should go back to the villa first.
With this thought in mind, Shi Qiuqiu took a taxi again and arrived at the villa.
But just when she was about to go in, the doorman stopped her: "I'm sorry, Miss Shi, you can't go in?"
"Why? Did something happen?" Shi Qiuqiu asked in surprise, feeling even more panicked.
She had never encountered anything like this when she came to Sheng Lijue's house in the past. How could she suddenly not let her in? Could something really have happened?
Seeing that Shi Qiuqiu refused to leave, the guard had to call the housekeeper.
"Butler, has something happened to Sheng Lijue?" Shi Qiuqiu saw the butler from a distance and felt anxious, so she couldn't help but ask him.
The housekeeper approached slowly, his expression still as gentle as ever, but he looked at her with a bit of sympathy in his eyes: "Miss Shi, the young master is fine, but there are some things to deal with, you should go back."
Shi Qiuqiu knew that Sheng Lijue was fine and she should have felt at ease, but when she saw the butler's eyes, she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
She was very eager to see Sheng Lijue, but they wouldn't let her in, so she had no choice but to say yes and walk out of the villa with her head turned three times.
At this time, on the balcony on the second floor of the villa, a deep gaze closely followed Shi Qiuqiu's figure. He didn't lower his gaze until the other person left the villa.
Yin Chenxuan was a little sad, with a complicated look on his face, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Have you really decided? Didn't you like Shi Qiuqiu very much before? Are you really going to be so cruel to her now?"
Sheng Lijue frowned tightly, suppressing the reluctance in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Assistant Lin has found out that the woman from five years ago is not her, and besides, haven't you also found out that Qiao Xiaoqing and Luo Luo are the real ones?"
Mother-son relationship?"
Since Shi Qiuqiu is not the woman she was five years ago, there is no need for him to get involved with her anymore.
Sheng Lijue's eyes were dark and his aura was cold, as if he had returned to the state before he met Shi Qiuqiu.
How could Yin Chenxuan not understand Sheng Lijue?
He could see how good he was to Shi Qiuqiu back then.
In fact, he was very happy that Sheng Lijue could get over what happened five years ago, but he didn't expect that it would still fail.
He didn't believe that Sheng Lijue's feelings for Shi Qiuqiu were fake, and he didn't believe that Sheng Lijue could just let it go. If that was the case, he wouldn't have looked for a woman with whom he had no news for five whole years.
Yin Chenxuan thought this and broke the silence: "You obviously like Shi Qiuqiu, why don't you go for it? You may not be able to find the woman five years ago, but Shi Qiuqiu is real in front of you, so you just
