The gathering place is in the bar on the fourth floor of the east villa. The villa is full of antique furniture and art treasures. It is not an exaggeration to describe the atmosphere as noble and decadent. The stained glass windows, decorative eaves and beams add to the warmth of the interior.
The tones complement each other to create a soft and delicate effect.
The environment here is easily reminiscent of the Shanghai salons in the colonial period, with a forgotten luxury, romance, and mysterious oriental atmosphere.
Winding up the antique wooden stairs, the middle-aged man took He Xie and Gu Xiaojiao straight to the elegant seats by the window, where a man and a woman had already stood up and greeted them with smiles on their faces.
The man wears black-rimmed glasses and looks mature and elegant, with a bookish temperament; the woman has long curly hair and looks very intellectual yet charming.
Just by looking at their temperament and appearance, you can tell that these two people are definitely petty bourgeois who come from relatively wealthy families, are well-educated, and have a great sense of life.
The first impression is very important. If Gu Xiaojiao comes wearing her previous outfit, she will be compared to her immediately upon meeting her.
But it's different now.
Needless to say, He Xie's calm temperament and hidden unruliness make anyone who sees him notice his difference at first glance.
And Gu Xiaojiao was already beautiful, and when she was set off by this outfit, she looked like a lovely girl who had stepped out of a painting, and she was even more beautiful.
The two people standing across from each other are called a talented man and a beautiful woman, while He Xie and Gu Xiaojiao are called a golden boy and a beautiful girl, a pair of beautiful people.
Good looks + youth, first impression, He Xie and Gu Xiaojiao win.
He Xie clearly noticed that the woman opposite was stunned for a moment, then stunned and in disbelief. Her smile suddenly became stiff, and a flash of deep jealousy flashed in her eyes. Then she hurriedly covered it up with a bigger smile, and hurriedly walked out and grabbed Gu.
Xiao Jiao held her hand and smiled with a surprise tone "from the heart": "Oh, Xiao Jiao, you are so beautiful today! You are completely different from when I saw you in the morning. I almost didn't recognize you."
Gu Xiaojiao pursed his lips and smiled: "My family likes the new and hates the old. He likes me to change several looks a day. I am also annoyed. I am too lazy to dress up. You don't know how troublesome it is. It's not like you, Xiaoya, you are naturally beautiful and you don't need to take care of it.
, will always be the same as when I was young."
"Hehehe..." The two of them laughed awkwardly and politely together.
He Xie felt a little scared when he heard the conversation between the two.
This woman, sometimes her IQ can kill everything in an instant. While talking and laughing, she will unknowingly complete a bloody confrontation without showing any signs of it.
People who react a little slower don't know that the two of them have completed a round of "attack, defense and counterattack" with just one sentence each.
First, Li Xiaoya insinuated that Gu Xiaojiao was not what he looked like. He dressed up in a big way just to see her, but he was not like this at all.
Gu Xiaojiao did not argue, but cleverly used He Xie's perspective to explain that he dressed up because He Xie liked to see different versions of himself, and then sarcastically said that Li Xiaoya had always looked the same for decades.
Second round, tie.
The two women laughed for a while. Li Xiaoya took the arm of the man with glasses next to her and said with a smile: "Xiao Jiao, let me introduce you. This is my husband Sicheng."
Li Xiaoya's eyes flashed with inexplicable brilliance, and she looked at He Xie: "Hello, Mr. He, I am Xiaojiao's best friend in college, please call me Xiaoya. Mr. He, you look so young..."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand, waiting for He Xie to take it.
He Xie gently shook his hand and then shook it off, nodded and smiled, then turned his head, extended his hand to Wang Sicheng and said, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Wang."
Wang Sicheng subconsciously smiled and stretched out his hand. He Xie shook it and made a gesture of invitation. He turned to Gu Xiaojiao and smiled: "Let's sit down and talk slowly, Xiaojiao?"
Gu Xiaojiao gave He Xie a big thumbs up in his heart and was so happy.
He Xie's performance was simply perfect and natural. He was polite and reserved in the face of Li Xiaoya, and took the initiative with Wang Sicheng. The best thing was that he didn't forget to express his importance to himself in the end.
These things may sound like nothing, but they are actually very subtle. Especially when she and Li Xiaoya were in a tit-for-tat confrontation with each other as soon as they met, He Xie's natural performance of advancing and retreating freely obviously gave her a lot of points.
In the third round, He Xie won with an assist.
Li Xiaoya's smile became brighter, but the unnatural flash in her eyes was not hidden from He Xie. She chuckled and said: "Yes! Yes! Let's sit down and chat slowly."
When the four of them bowed to each other and sat down, Li Xiaoya pinched Wang Sicheng secretly, but He Xie saw it all.
This Wang Sicheng is also a smart and thoughtful man. He realized that He Xie had just pulled off a little trick of turning against customers and was very unconvinced by He Xie's "sneak attack".
But at the same time, he also felt very confused.
Before he came, his wife Li Xiaoya told him that Gu Xiaojiao was her mortal enemy and that he was trying to make a fool of herself during the day, but she exposed him at a glance.
Li Xiaoya laughed heartily at Gu Xiaojiao's pretense, but she remained calm on the outside. She was like watching a clown perform, wanting Gu Xiaojiao to make an even bigger fool of herself, and that was how tonight's situation unfolded.
Li Xiaoya was sure that Gu Xiaojiao's vanity and strong will would make her continue to pretend to be fat and keep pretending. So the task given to Wang Sicheng was to expose Gu Xiaojiao's true colors and make her lose face without completely tearing her face.
All face.
Wang Sicheng loves her wife very much, so she naturally pats her chest and promises that she will definitely complete the arduous task of slapping her in the face, tearing apart the vanity and pretense of Gu Xiaojiao and her boyfriend, leaving them unable to hide themselves.
But the first time he saw He Xie and Gu Xiaojiao, Wang Sicheng felt a thump in his heart and realized something was wrong.
He Xie is so outstanding. This kind of outstanding temperament is definitely not something ordinary people can possess.
And with his eyesight, he could naturally see that the clothes on both of them were luxury items.
He has realized that his wife has made a mistake.
However, he didn't pay too much attention to it. He had always been very conceited about his status and qualities in all aspects. Apart from his youth, he didn't think anyone could compare with him.
The "all-round crushing" style slap in the face is no longer possible, but the feeling of overpowering your opponent is still very satisfying.
Sure enough, as soon as the four people sat down, Wang Sicheng immediately launched an "attack".
"Mr. He seems to be a very talented person, but I don't know where he can be better?" Wang Sicheng looked into He Xie's eyes with a smile.
He Xie's age seems to be in his early twenties. Rich people at this age are either the second generation of rich people, or they are so-called "business geniuses" who have just made their first pot of gold through good luck.
If it is the former, apart from being rich and having a good father, he will not have any legitimate career at all. Even if he brags that he is the general manager or chairman of a certain company, a few words will immediately reveal his embroidered pillow nature.
If it is the latter, they are often arrogant and arrogant, claiming to be the founder of so-and-so. For this kind of person, Wang Sicheng is sure to make the other person lose sense and even become angry with a few words.
Wang Sicheng smiled and waited for He Xie's answer. He was ready. No matter what He Xie answered, he would tear off He Xie's face, rub it on the ground, and then put it back on him.
However, the next moment, he was not so confident.
