Bai Luochuan was busy with work, and he had to attend more and more social events.
Because of the relationship between Mi Yang and Old Lady Zhan, the Zhan family was especially polite to him, and they had more business cooperation and more frequent contacts. Other people in the Luo family were jealous, but it didn't work no matter who they were replaced. The Zhan family only dealt with Xiao Bai alone, and sometimes even Luo Jiangjing personally showed up, but the effect was not as good as Bai Luochuan's.
Some people got some information and followed suit to buy some old-school opera items and send them to Zhan Rong, but even though the other party accepted them, they didn't get any benefits from them.
Those people were still scratching their heads and couldn't figure it out. Someone sneered, "Don't think of those crooked ideas. It's useless. Haven't you seen the guy from the Beijing branch? He was more attentive than you, gave more gifts than you, and even made two personal trips to visit him. When he met Mr. Zhan at the summit, he didn't even remember his name."
The person in charge of the Beijing branch is Mr. Kang, who is also a veteran in the company. He usually thinks highly of himself, but he did not expect to suffer a loss here.
The gift giver felt more relieved after thinking this way: "Why, Mr. Kang can't find a way either?"
"That's right. With so many people in the overseas capital chain watching eagerly, how many of them can convince those foreigners? The brothers of the Zhan family are smarter than each other and have figured it out clearly! I don't know what kind of magic potion our prince has given to the Zhan family..."
"Are you jealous?"
"Envy? More than that, go ask, how many people in the company are not jealous?"
…
News spreads quickly in the company. Compared to when CEO Bai first came, the other senior employees have been eagerly calculating whether they have daughters of marriageable age. Because Bai Luochuan has always been taken care of by Mi Zehai, and the two of them seem to have a good relationship on weekdays, some people even secretly asked Mi Zehai: "Does our CEO Bai have a girlfriend?"
The corners of Mi Ze Hai's mouth twitched for a long time before he squeezed out a sentence: "I don't have a girlfriend."
The man immediately relaxed his expression. "That's good. My girl is also coming to the company for an internship this year. It looks like there's still a chance."
Mi Ze Hai was not happy and said: "Aren't you worried that she is already married?"
The other party laughed and said, "No, there is no invitation yet! Besides, at their age, they are just having fun and enjoying new things. They should have two more years of freedom. How can they get married now?" He also patted Mi Zehai on the shoulder and said with emotion, "Old Mi, you should improve your thinking. It's too backward!"
Yonezawa Hai: “…”
Mi Zehai thought to himself, that little bastard has been fond of pestering his good son since he was young, and he didn't know how much he could endure. He only told them after he graduated from school, but he must have caught up with him several years in advance. He must have fallen in love with their Mi Yang in high school.
He wanted to make progress, but Mr. Xiaobai got engaged earlier than he expected, so why shouldn't he let that person make progress
Yonezawa Hai complained in his heart, but he didn't dare show it on his face. He kept a stern face and maintained an impartial look, as if he was not interested in this matter at all.
The old city renovation project attracted the attention of many companies, and various exchange meetings increased in number.
Bai Luochuan and Yonezawa Hai went to attend a meeting together. In the evening, they went to three drinking parties and used the last bit of tea time to talk about work. They were very busy.
Bai Luochuan was young and energetic, and he didn't look tired at all. However, Mi Zehai was old and a little tired after drinking, so she asked him to communicate with those people while she stayed aside to drink Kung Fu tea.
They went to a private villa, covering an area of nearly 2,000 square meters, half of which was a courtyard. The owner had very good taste and the decoration was unique.
And the owner of this villa happens to be named Zhan.
Zhan Rong took Bai Luochuan over and introduced him, "This is my third brother. He returned to China relatively early and is engaged in the antique business. If you have any problems here, you can look for him. He knows a lot of people."
Mr. Zhan, who looked to be about fifty years old, politely shook hands with Bai Luochuan and said with a smile, "Yes, just come to me if you have anything. My mother mentioned you and Mi Yang to me, and she wanted to meet you guys early in the morning. By the way, didn't Mi Yang come with you today?"
Bai Luochuan said, "Hello, Third Uncle. Mi Yang has been busy repairing some things these days. The old lady found some old opera books, but she was worried about leaving them to others, so she brought them to Mi Yang to repair them."
When Zhan San heard him say this, the smile on his face became even wider, and he thanked him again and again: "The old lady is old, and sometimes she is like an old child. Thank you for taking the trouble to accompany her all the time, thank you."
Bai Luochuan smiled and said, "Third Uncle, that's not the case. It's my duty."
After leaving Shanhai Town, Madam Zhan kept in touch with Mi Yang, and treated him like her own grandson. The gifts she sent him were varied, sometimes two pairs of precious jewel cufflinks, and other times a box of brown sugar rice cakes. The reason was simple: the old lady thought the food tasted good while she was having breakfast, so she had it delivered that day and made sure Mi Yang could have a taste of it.
Mi Yang has a good temper and is patient. He always speaks in a gentle and warm voice, and he gets along very well with Old Madam Zhan.
The Zhan family follows the old lady's lead. The old lady is happy, and they are happier than anything else.
Bai Luochuan and the Zhan brothers could mostly talk about work, but when it came to Mi Yang and Old Madam Zhan, it was like building a bridge to talk about family matters, with a little more human touch. Both sides became much more friendly, and after a few words they had a very good impression of each other.
Bai Luochuan pretended to casually glance at the watch on his wrist and felt that the discussion today went well, so maybe he could go back to the hotel early.
He had been running around outside for seven or eight days, and today he couldn't help but secretly hide someone in the hotel.
When he sent a message to Mi Yang just now, he said that he was on his way to the hotel, and he should be there soon. Thinking that he would meet Mi Yang when he returned home in the evening, Master Bai couldn't help but raise his lips, but he quickly raised his eyes to the small tea room on the second floor. Mi Yang had not told Mi Zehai about coming here, and he hid him in his room, so he must not be discovered.
After all, they were newlyweds, so he really thought a lot about it.
Mi Yang arrived at the hotel and was checking in when he ran into an acquaintance at the front desk.
Wu Shuang was wearing a pair of large sunglasses that covered most of her face. She was holding the room card in her hand and was about to turn around to leave when she met Mi Yang.
Mi Yang blinked, looked at her and smiled.
Wu Shuang stood there calmly and asked, "Are you here to see Bai Luochuan?"
Mi Yang nodded and said with a smile: "Are you here to see Zhan Rong?"
Wu Shuang: "Yes, but I won't stay at his house. I'll just stay at a hotel."
She waited for Mi Yang to check in and went upstairs with him. Wu Shuang dragged a large suitcase and held a translucent clothing bag in her hand. Inside was what looked like an evening dress with a long skirt. It was inconvenient for her to carry it while walking, so Mi Yang helped her carry it all and sent it to the room.
Wu Shuang kept wearing the sunglasses and didn't take them off until he got to the room.
Mi Yang looked curious and asked, "Is it popular to wear sunglasses at night now?"
Wu Shuang smiled and said, "How is that possible? I'm just afraid that people will recognize me. My dad's company has also sent people here for a meeting. It will probably last for several days. It's always better to be careful."
Mi Yang nodded. He understood Wu Shuang. Not to mention that she hadn't told Mr. Wu about her relationship with Zhan Rong, he and Bai Luochuan were married, and it was a bit embarrassing to let his family know that he came after being apart for a few days. However, he was relatively free this month, and the books entrusted by Mrs. Zhan were easy to take care of. When Bai Luochuan called and asked him to come, he agreed without hesitation.
Mi Yang helped her get the clothes and stood up to leave. Wu Shuang stopped him and said, "Mi Yang, wait a moment, help me see which dress is better?" She held up two long dresses and tried them on herself, one was a sapphire blue backless long dress, the other was a white fishtail dress, both were very beautiful.
Mi Yang pointed to the blue one and said, "This one is nice."
Wu Shuang immediately went to the room inside to change into her clothes, even bringing matching shoes. After getting dressed, she looked charming and full of aura. She took a handbag and put a diamond hairpin in her hair, which made her face sparkle. She raised her eyebrows and smiled at Mi Yang, "How is it? Can I go out in this outfit?"
Mi Yang looked her up and down, nodded seriously and said, "Okay, it looks good. Where are you going?"
Wu Shuang asked, "Go meet Zhan Rong. Do you want to go to his party?"
Mi Yang shook his head and smiled, "No, I'm tired. I'd better rest in the hotel. Your meeting is too grand. I thought you were going to attend some important occasion. You're just like a star."
Wu Shuang snorted, "It's an important occasion. I heard that several female celebrities were invited tonight."
Mi Yang laughed, "You didn't come here to see Mr. Zhan this time, but to compete for beauty. But don't worry, you are definitely the most beautiful in Mr. Zhan's eyes."
Wu Shuang fiddled with the hem of her skirt and said seriously, "I'm worried. The female star who came this time is very beautiful and very popular. Her name is Qiu Lan, and she has been involved in gossips with various wealthy businessmen. I still have to keep an eye on her personally to feel at ease. I won't give her any chance to take a photo with me tonight. Mr. Zhan is such an honest man, how can he deal with a female star?"
Mi Yang was just listening, but when he heard this person's name, he said dryly, "What, Qiu Lan is here today too?"
Wu Shuang frowned and said, "Yeah, you're not going to tell me that you're a fan of Qiu Lan, are you?"
Mi Yang shook his head, "No, how about I go with you?"
Wu Shuang was surprised and asked, "Really? Why are you going to pass away suddenly? Didn't you just say you wanted to rest?"
Mi Yang hesitated and said, "Well, I'm not very tired. I'll go with you."
He didn't know Qiu Lan from TV. In his previous life, Bai Luochuan brought a little celebrity to their party, and that person was Qiu Lan. In total, Bai Luochuan and Qiu Lan met a year or two later... Mi Yang had a complicated expression, and he suddenly felt a sense of crisis. Wu Shuang was just on guard, but Bai Luochuan had a real scandal with Qiu Lan back then.
Mi Yang naturally trusts Young Master Bai now, but he always feels like there is a little hand grabbing him in his heart, and he wants to follow and take a look.
Wu Shuang didn't think much about it and said with satisfaction: "That's perfect. I need a male companion to accompany me. Zhan Rong doesn't know I'm coming." She looked at Mi Yang and shook her head, "But your clothes are not suitable."
Mi Yang: "What's wrong?"
Wu Shuang glanced at him and said, "I can tell you're inexperienced. At a time like this, you must have a battle robe to attend a banquet like that. Come on, I'm quite experienced. After all, I had to consider these things when matching jewelry before. I also brought some matching ones, but you still have to buy new clothes. Let's go out and take a look together."
Wu Shuang took Mi Yang to buy a suit. It was quite convenient since there was a high-end suit shop in the hotel. Mi Yang had a great figure and was a natural clothes hanger. He looked good in anything. After Wu Shuang gave him some help in matching the clothes, he changed from a sunny and cheerful young man into a noble young man. His smile was so heartwarming.
Wu Shuang was particularly satisfied: "Let's go with this one. We don't have enough time. Otherwise, you can try the other two sets. They are very suitable for you."
Mi Yang took out his black card and paid, then asked her, "Do you want to buy some jewelry?"
Wu Shuang shook her head and said, "No, I brought it with me."
The handbag Wu Shuang carried with her was like a treasure chest. In addition to a full set of jewelry for herself, she also bought a pair of diamond cufflinks for Mi Yang, which was very exquisite and beautiful.
Mi Yang teased her and said, "You look like someone who has run away with all the gold and silver."
Wu Shuang said: "I won't elope."
She fastened the cufflinks for Mi Yang, and then raised her head and stroked Mi Yang's tie, with a serious expression: "I will only get married once in my life, and I must stand on a high place openly and accept everyone's blessings." She looked up at Mi Yang and smiled, "This is what I deserve. People who know how to appreciate and persist always get the best, don't they?"
Mi Yang also smiled, raised his arm and invited her, "Yes, I wonder if I have the honor to be your flower protector for a short period of time?"
Wu Shuang held his arm, but she felt a little crazy as soon as she reached the hotel entrance.
Wu Shuang: "... Don't tell me you want me to wear this dress and take a taxi there."
Mi Yang touched the tip of his nose and said nothing.
Wu Shuang rubbed his forehead and said, "Didn't Bai Luochuan leave a car for you to use?"
Mi Yang said vaguely: "It's a little inconvenient for him, but it will be fine tomorrow." If he went there now, he would definitely run into Mi Zehai, and tomorrow he could follow him openly as a family member.
Wu Shuang had a severe headache: "But I won't be wearing a dress tomorrow. Forget it, let's just leave it at that."
On the way to the car, Wu Shuang said quietly: "Actually, this is much better than I thought."
Mi Yang listened carefully.
Wu Shuang: "I remember one time when I was in Beijing, I also asked you to borrow your bicycle, and you gave me a bicycle key."
