Song Li has been a good friend of Jiang Suizhou for many years, but Guan Xi also knew him early, and the relationship is not bad.
The next day, when assistant Yang Qing brought the gift that was going to be given to Song Li to Jiang Suizhou's house, Guan Xizheng finished his make-up and stood in front of a row of perfumes, thinking about who he favored today.
"What is it?" Guan Xi asked casually.
Yang Qing: "I won the last auction, Dijin in 1921. I think Mr. Song likes to drink, so it should be appropriate."
Guan Xi nodded: "Just put things in the living room, you can go first."
"OK."
The assistant left, and at this moment, the phone also rang.
Guan Xi pressed the answer and raised his voice, and put the phone on the table.
"When are you coming back."
It was Jiang Suizhou who called: "There is something in the company that can't be solved in a while. I'll go later at night, you go first."
"Do I drive by myself?"
"If you don't want to drive, I'll ask Zhou Hao to escort you."
Guan Xi still chose a bottle of incense that he often used: "Then I have to wait for a long time... Forget it, I will drive by myself."
"also."
Jiang Suizhou was probably really busy, so he hung up the phone quickly.
Guan Xi hummed a song, took the perfume and sprayed it on his wrists, and put a little more behind his ears.
She doesn't like strong scents, this fragrance is light and smells the most comfortable.
Ten minutes later, when she was ready, she packed her bag and went out.
Song Li is a party fanatic, and when it comes to birthdays, he will definitely toss a lot.
Today's birthday party is in his own villa. When Guan Xi entered through the door, he was dizzy by his exaggerated birthday decoration.
A room full of light bulbs... what a taste.
"It's so cold, I want to change clothes."
"Are you sure you won't be able to go into the water, what are you going to change?"
"Hey, does this look good?"
"Drink this cup, peach flavored."
…
Several beauties in swimsuits sat in the living room. They were chatting and making up.
Guan Xi didn't know anyone, so he didn't say hello.
She glanced at the yard outside the villa, the swimming pool, fine wine, music, handsome guys and beauties in twos and threes.
Very much in line with Song Li's style.
Guan Xi smiled, put the bag and gift aside, and found a lipstick inside.
"Can I borrow a mirror?" She was too lazy to go to the bathroom and asked the girl in the swimsuit with a mirror in her hand.
The people who were talking on the sofa were immediately attracted to their attention. The girl who was being questioned looked her up and down, and handed out the small mirror in her hand.
Guan Xi said thank you, and turned on her lipstick to touch up her makeup.
When she was moving, several people looked at her calmly. They didn't know Guan Xi, and it should be said that they didn't know anyone other than Song Li here. But Song Li called them over on her birthday, and they were naturally very happy. After all, if they squeezed into Song Li's circle, they would make money by casually hooking up with a rich second generation.
"Here." Guan Xi used the mirror and handed it over.
The girl reached out and took it, subconsciously glanced at the watch on her wrist.
They all have sharp eyes and have a strong perception of brand-name things, so it's easy to see that Guan Xi's everything is worth a lot of money. Especially the Patek Philippe on her wrist, and the latest limited edition Hermes this year that she put on the cabinet.
"You are also Song Li's friend." The girls on the sofa were smiling, but their eyes were full of inquiry and hostility.
The exploration is because Guan Xi's equipment is really strong.
The hostility is because the person who comes is very beautiful, and it is easy to steal the attention of outsiders. But at this time, girls all hope that they are the one that attracts everyone's attention.
Guan Xi nodded, and just as he was about to say something, he heard Song Li's voice come over: "Ouch! Guan Xi! Miss! You are here."
Running all the way, galloping.
Seeing him coming, Guan Xi patted the box on the cabinet: "Thank you, happy birthday."
"Fuck? Wine?"
"Yeah, it's a little old. When my assistant said it, I felt a little pain in my heart."
Song Li: "Tsk, I know you like me! I love you, love you!"
"Don't love anymore, you probably won't be able to love all the people who come here today."
Song Li glanced at her: "Naughty. Eh? Where's Jiang Suizhou? Not with you."
"Arrived late." Guan Xi said, "Song Li, what style of decoration do you have in your house? I thought I was walking to the red light district in Japan when you turned on the lights."
Song Li was surprised: "Really? Isn't it quite romantic?"
Guan Xi couldn't say anything, "Forget it, see if you don't spray you on your birthday... Is Ning Yi here yet?"
"Come on, I'm playing outside."
"Okay, I'll go find her."
Guan Xi went out directly from the back room, and Song Li hurriedly followed.
The beauties sitting on the sofa originally looked at each other, but they had already sensed from Song Li's attitude, and it was unnecessary to be hostile to this girl.
Because they are obviously not on the same level.
**
Guan Xi saw Lang Ningyi from a distance, she was standing at the table over the cocktail, chatting with her cousin Wei Xiuyang.
After sending Song Li away, she walked up to them and took a glass of juice.
Wei Xiuyang turned to see her and said hello, "Come on."
"You are still early."
"It wasn't that long before you, and I only arrived ten minutes." Wei Xiuyang looked back at the room, "That person didn't come?"
Guan Xi knew that he was talking about Jiang Suizhou: "I'll be there later."
"Oh."
"What were you just saying?"
Lang Ningyi smiled and said, "Tell me a handsome guy."
Guan Xi: "Who are you gossiping about again?"
Wei Xiuyang was agitated by the word "again" and glanced at her, "I'm not gossiping, it was Lang Ningyi who asked me."
"Really, brother."
"… "
"Who is it?"
Wei Xiuyang had no choice but to say, "Thank you."
"Thanks... Yan? Who?"
Lang Ningyi gestured with her eyes: "Did you see the man in the black shirt across from the pool?"
Guan Xi followed her line of sight, and there was indeed a man standing opposite. She was so far away that she could not see clearly for a while, only to see that the man was tall and had a good figure.
Lang Ning said, "It's normal that you don't know each other. Their family has just moved from the south and is a real estate businessman. He is a well-known house designer."
"Oh... Then?" Guan Xi didn't get the odd point.
Lang Ningyi was about to speak, but she seemed to remember something, looked at Guan Xi, and closed her mouth.
Guan Xi: "What are you hesitating about?"
"Ah... no."
Wei Xiuyang continued: "It's nothing, I just talked casually. I've seen Xie Yan's designs, and I really want to cooperate. If there is something special about him, I guess it can only be about his life experience."
"life experience?"
"Well, I heard that he is the adopted child of the Xie family."
Guan Xi's hand holding the cup froze.
Lang Ningyi glanced at her secretly, which was the reason she hesitated just now.
Wei Xiuyang didn't notice anything wrong, and continued: "Although he was adopted, he has a strong say in the Xie family. His adoptive father loves him, more than his own son."
Guan Xi snorted, and his eyes stopped on Xie Yan.
Adopted son... Is this the same as her.
Probably because she had been staring straight at it for too long, and when the person on the opposite side looked back, her eyes just met her. Guan Xi froze for a moment, then nodded politely.
Xie Yan estimated that it was quite sudden, and returned the same.
Guan Xi quickly withdrew his gaze.
**
After seven o'clock in the evening, Song Li had someone push the cake out. After the group celebrated, they played even more crazy, and many of them were directly pushed out of the swimming pool with their clothes on.
Guan Xi wasn't in the mood to go crazy today, so after letting Lang Ningyi play by herself, after drinking the juice in her hand, she wanted to go into the living room to get her bag, and put her phone in it.
Walking from her to the villa had to pass the swimming pool. The ground was wet and slippery. She stepped on a pair of high heels and walked slowly.
Just then, a man walked up to him. Guan Xi glanced at him, feeling inexplicably strange in his heart.
When she passed by, she didn't know if she was stunned, and subconsciously said, "Xie Yan."
The passing man paused and looked at her somewhat unexpectedly.
Guan Xi also regretted when she spoke, she somehow classified herself and others.
And suddenly there's a whole bunch of questions... Like, at what age was he adopted? Did he know he was adopted since he was a child or did he know later? How did he feel when he found out? Has he gone as crazy as he is? What's his favorite trick
All kinds of things are like suddenly seeing a "person of your own".
However, none of these questions can be asked! After all, she didn't know this person at all, and she suddenly spoke, only to be hooked by her own emotions.
"Hello." Xie Yan nodded at her, "Miss Guan."
Um? Does he know her
Guan Xi's state returned, a little embarrassed: "Hello."
Xie Yan seemed to see her doubts and explained, "I heard Song Li say your name is Guan Xi just now, right?"
"Yes, my name is Guan Xi."
"Miss Guan knows me?"
"Oh... I also heard someone talking about you just now."
Xie Yan nodded and smiled.
As Lang Ningyi said, this man is really handsome, gentle and elegant, and his smile makes people look very comfortable.
"Actually, this is the case. I just heard from a friend that you are a very good designer. I thought that there may be opportunities for cooperation in the future, so I want to ask you for a business card." Guan Xi just made an excuse for himself at this time, or else , she couldn't explain why she called people just now.
"That's it." Xie Yan said, "But I didn't bring it today, otherwise, you can also add a contact information."
Guan Xi pointed to the room: "My phone is in the room."
"It's okay, you can enter your number." Xie Yan handed her mobile phone to her.
Guan Xi nodded: "Alright."
Guan Xi took over the phone and entered the number, while Xie Yan stood by and waited.
At this distance between the two, Xie Yan could smell a very light fragrance, which was different from the strong atmosphere here. The smell was sweet and delicious.
Apparently it was her scent.
Xie Yan's eyes passed over Guan Xi's lowered eyes. Several people who didn't know her just now wanted to know what her name was, and then someone asked Song Li. That's it, he overheard.
Guan Xi took his mobile phone and entered a number. She didn't write it blindly, but really entered her number. After all, this person in front of him may really have cooperation in the future. If you stop him and enter a fake number, you will be suspected of cheating.
After entering the number and writing a note, she handed him the phone.
But at this moment, two girls who were fighting each other bumped into each other!
Guan Xi's hand was bumped, and the phone flew out directly. She was stunned for a while, and subconsciously turned her head to pick it up.
But there was a swimming pool behind her. She slipped under her feet and didn't receive the phone, but the whole person jumped into the swimming pool!
"…!!!"
"Miss Guan!"
"Kuan Xi!"
