Du Xiaoxian remembered Shao Baiqing's words, so when Jiang Kaiwei also came to ask her to dance, she only hesitated for a second before stepping onto the dance floor with him. Jiang Kaiwei came to Du Xiaoxian purely to save face. He never thought that if he was rejected again, he would really lose face here. (President Jiang, you really are an imbecile in other things besides business.)
Seeing that Du Xiaoxian was willing to dance with him, Jiang Kaiwei was also a little surprised. He felt very insecure when dealing with a stubborn little girl, because basically he was asking for trouble!
Gu Nianbin stood in the distance and watched silently. He was a little surprised that Du Xiaoxian was willing to dance with Jiang Kaiwei. His eyes froze, and he looked at Shao Baiqing: "What did you tell her?"
Shao Baiqing didn't hide it from him, and recounted what he said to Du Xiaoxian again. He touched Gu Nianbin with his wine glass, and said, "You usually protect her too well, but she got better in front of you. , but in front of outsiders, she is still the same as before. She is already eighteen years old, and some things must be experienced by herself to understand, to mature, and to become brave. Nian Bin, you can’t be alone 24 hours a day. Personal protection, she must learn to be independent, learn to protect herself, and know how to tell right from wrong, today is a good opportunity, you just let her stay by herself, let her get used to it slowly, let's just watch from a distance."
Shao Baiqing's words were very earnest, Gu Nianbin knew that he was doing it for his own good, and stayed by his side all the time, for fear that he couldn't help but do something to Du Xiaoxian for a while, if he was photographed and published in tomorrow's newspaper, his father would see the If he is stimulated and his condition worsens, he will become a sinful and unfilial son.
Gu Nianbin himself also considered this point, so he agreed to Shao Baiqing's arrangement. But he didn't expect that it would not be easy to do. Seeing Du Xiaoxian panicked, he couldn't help but want to comfort her and take her away from this noisy environment, but he couldn't, not only couldn't, he could only watch from a distance. Looking at her helpless and flustered, if he was only a little bit regretful just now, he is very regretful now.
At this time, several bigwigs from the business world came over to greet them, Gu Nianbin had no choice but to look away and start chatting with them.
On the dance floor, Jiang Kaiwei whirled with Du Xiaoxian, but he was silent. He wanted to talk, but Du Xiaoxian didn't look at him at all. This made him a little depressed again. Seeing that the dance was coming to an end, he finally couldn't help asking: "Why didn't you dance with me in the first dance?"
"I don't like you." The little girl answered very simply.
Although he was mentally prepared, and it was not the first time he heard this sentence, Jiang Kaiwei was still unhappy, and asked again: "Then why are you dancing with me again now?"
"Because you are the guest and I am the host." Du Xiaoxian said seriously: "Mr. Shao said that the host should treat guests well."
It turned out that Du Xiaoxian was willing to dance with him because of Shao Baiqing's face.
Jiang Kaiwei looked at her and said, "Dance with me next time."
"No." The little girl flatly refused.
"Why?" Jiang Kaiwei said, "What about your hospitality?"
Du Xiaoxian looked at him and frowned: "People can't be greedy!"
Jiang Kaiwei was dumbfounded. To dance one more dance with her is to be insatiable? He is completely speechless...
As soon as the music stopped, Du Xiaoxian left him and left. Jiang Kaiwei looked at her back in the crowd, turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
Seeing that Du Xiaoxian was alone, the daughters who wanted to make friends with her for a long time immediately surrounded her, scrambling to greet her: "Miss Du, hello, I am Huang Lingya, and my father is from Feida Enterprise." Chairman."
"Ms. Du, hello, I'm Song Feifei, and our Song family and Gu family also have business contacts."
"Miss Du, let's take a photo together, come, look here."
"Miss Du, your crown is so beautiful, is it custom-made from abroad?"
"Miss Du, which school do you study in?"
"Miss Du..."
Du Xiaoxian just felt like a butterfly wearing flowers in front of her, the smiling face, charming voice, thick or light perfume, seemed to drown her whole body. Those jewels dazzled her eyes brightly, they were all noble young ladies, they looked at her and smiled at her, Du Xiaoxian was frightened, she wished that she would turn into a handful of sand and run along the floor. It's good to get in the gap.
Someone asked again: "Where is Miss Du from? I don't think I've seen her before..."
"Ms. Du and Mr. Gu's Mr. Shao are not very familiar?"
"Du Xiaoxian seems to know Mr. Shen very well with Jiang's too!"
Du Xiaoxian opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word, she didn't dare to look at people, her gaze was dodged, but she really wanted to be brave, she was fighting fiercely in her heart, was it to run away? Or stay here
When she was extremely entangled and panicked, someone reached out to her: "Xiaoxian."
Du Xiaoxian looked up and saw that it was Cheng Mingchi, she had invited him, but she didn't expect him to arrive at this time. She held his hand in surprise and joy, "Cheng Mingchi, you're here."
Cheng Mingchi smiled gracefully at the young ladies: "I'm sorry, I'm going to take Miss Du away."
Before everyone came back to their senses, he had already taken Du Xiaoxian away.
Du Xiaoxian saw Cheng Mingchi leading him out through the side door, so he stopped in a hurry and said, "Where are you taking me?"
"I didn't go anywhere." Cheng Mingchi smiled and said, "I think you seem very nervous, so I took you outside to get some air."
Du Xiaoxian smiled embarrassedly: "I'm very nervous, I was so nervous all night, you don't know, just now I really wanted to run away, surrounded by them, I couldn't even breathe."
Cheng Mingchi had been holding a glass of wine in his hand, so he handed it to her at this moment: "Come on, have a drink and calm down."
Du Xiaoxian smiled at him gratefully, and took it. It was a delicious cocktail, sweet and sour, and a bit cold. She happened to have a dry tongue, and drank it all in one gulp.
Cheng Mingchi smiled and said, "If you drink like this, you will definitely get drunk."
Du Xiaoxian said: "It's okay, last time at Yang Liying's ball, I drank three cups and I wasn't drunk yet."
Cheng Mingchi didn't speak, just looked at her and smiled, Du Xiaoxian stroked his forehead, frowned slightly: "Did I drink too fast, I'm really dizzy."
"I'll take you to have a rest," Cheng Mingchi said and supported her to walk forward.
Du Xiaoxian said: "Where are you going to rest? I'm afraid they'll be looking for... looking for..." Before she could say the last word, her body softened and she collapsed on Cheng Mingchi's body. Cheng Mingchi looked around and put her Wrapping her arms around her neck, she half-armed and half-supported her into the elevator.
The hall is still full of singing and dancing, the orchestra is playing vigorously, the waiters in snow-white shirts are shuttled through the crowd with wine trays, the handsome men and women are dancing happily on the dance floor, and the nobles gather together to chat politely. to the sky...
Gu Nianbin was dragged to chat with several bosses who had business dealings with Gu's, he dealt with it absent-mindedly, but his eyes searched for Du Xiaoxian's figure in the crowd. He searched the whole hall, but there was no Du Xiaoxian, he thought the little girl went to the bathroom, or was talking to a friend outside the door, and waited a while to check again, but still not there. Suddenly there was an ominous premonition in his heart, he apologized to the bosses, he left in a hurry, walked to the door and saw Zhou Ting was there, and hurriedly asked, "Did you see Xiaoxian?"
Zhou Ting shook her head: "I didn't see her come out."
Gu Nianbin walked into the hall again, saw Wang Qian talking to a girl, he walked over and asked, "Did you see Du Xiaoxian?"
Wang Qian shook her head in surprise, Gu Nianbin said: "Go and find her."
Wang Qian snorted, and really went to look for it, without thinking too much about why Gu Nianbin wanted to look for Du Xiaoxian? Not to mention why he spoke to her in such an orderly tone
Wang Qian went around most of the hall, and then saw Yang Liying and Liu Tiantian, they were going out from the side door, looking a bit sneaky, Wang Qian was puzzled, so she followed them quietly, and saw them standing at the elevator entrance waiting for the elevator , she was even more strange, and was about to go to call them, when she saw Yu Yuanpo coming from the other end, standing and talking with them. Wang Qian knew that Yu Yuanpo had been pursuing Yang Liying, but Yang Liying had never taken him seriously, and now they were talking and laughing together.
The elevator came, and they walked in. Wang Qian hid in the dark and saw the elevator ascended to the eighteenth floor. At this time, the elevator next to her also arrived. She hurried in and sat on the eighteenth floor. After getting out of the elevator, there were two quiet corridors on the left and right sides, and there was no one in sight. Wang Qian didn't think much about it and chose to go to the left.
After walking not far, turning a corner, she saw Yang Liying and the others standing in front of a room ringing the doorbell, still looking around. Wang Qian subconsciously felt that they must be doing something bad.
The door opened, three of Yang Liying walked in, and the door closed silently again.
Wang Qian walked over quietly and saw that the door number was 1813. She put her ear against the door to hear the movement inside, but the voice of the people inside seemed to be deliberately low-pitched, and she couldn't hear clearly at all. At this time, someone patted her on the shoulder, and Wang Qian jumped up in fright. Looking back, a very elegant woman was smiling at her: "You are here to find Liying, why don't you go in?" ?”
Wang Qian recognized this woman as Yang Liying's cousin. I saw her last time at the dance.
Wang Qian was caught by her for eavesdropping, she was a little embarrassed, and smiled awkwardly: "Yes, I'm here to find Liying."
Xia Xiaowan rang the doorbell, and it happened that Yang Liying came to open the door. Seeing Wang Qian standing outside the door, she couldn't help being surprised, and immediately looked at Xia Xiaowan.
Xia Xiaowan had a calm face, and said with a smile, "Your classmate is looking for you." She gently pushed Wang Qian: "Go in and sit down."
Wang Qian walked in in a daze, and finally saw Cheng Mingchi again. She opened her mouth in surprise, wondering how these people got together
Xia Xiaowan sat down, smiled at her gently, turned to Yu Yuanpo and said, "Shut her up in the bathroom."
Wang Qian was in a daze, and Yu Yuanpo grabbed her wrist, only to be belatedly aware that Xia Xiaowan was going to lock her into the bathroom.
Wang Qian's heart sank, her intuition was very bad, she struggled inexplicably: "What do you want to do?"
Xia Xiaowan added: "Gag her mouth so that no one can hear her screaming."
Yang Liying went to the bathroom and found a square to cover her mouth.
Wang Qian panicked and struggled hard. Xia Xiaowan sat on the sofa smiling at her all the time, but suddenly stood up and shook her ear hard.
Wang Qian was stunned for a while, with burning pain on her face, Xia Xiaowan restrained her smile, and said lightly: "If you make trouble again, I will put you and Du Xiaoxian together, and let you two good friends be company together. Guess your parents What do you think when you see you like that?"
