She nodded solemnly again, "If there is anything, I will definitely tell you the truth."
"I didn't realize that our president is such a gentleman. You've lived in the presidential palace for so long, and he didn't do anything to you. But you stayed in such a small room last night. Logically, he should have had plenty of opportunities to do something to you."
"Stop it, how can he be a gentleman?" Xia Xingchen disagreed with Chi Weiyang's words. What kind of thought was instilled in his son so early in the morning!
Chi Weiyang turned his head and looked at her ambiguously, "Something's going on!"
Xia Xingchen was embarrassed. He really shot himself in the foot.
At this moment, her cell phone suddenly rang. She took out her cell phone and said to Chi Weiyang, "It's the boss' call."
"I'm afraid he's here to work, so answer it first."
Xia Xingchen asked Chi Weiyang to help look after Xia Dabai, and she found a quiet corner to answer the phone. After a while, Xia Xingchen came back.
"What's up?"
"There is a grand charity dinner tonight. In addition to our domestic leaders and business tycoons, there are also some foreign businessmen and people from the embassy. It is said that Vice President Song asked me to be the interpreter."
Chi Weiyang frowned, "Could it be some kind of Hongmen Banquet? Song Weiyi didn't get any advantage last time, so he's retaliating this time?"
Xia Xingchen's face turned colder when she thought of this. "Then I have to go. I want to ask her about what happened last time in person."
"What if she bullies me again?"
"She can't kidnap me again in public."
Chi Weiyang nodded, but still worried, "Anyway, you still have to be careful. I heard that this charity dinner is quite grand, and all the major domestic media will be present."
"Is it?"
"Um."
At noon, after the three of them had lunch together, Xia Xingchen could no longer accompany the child, so she had to call the driver to come and take the child back to the Presidential Palace.
She takes a shower and cleans up.
She opened her computer to check her emails, first read the dinner schedule, and then got a rough idea of the identities of the attendees. She was going to serve the vice minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs tonight, and she had dealt with him before, so she knew him well. She felt more relaxed.
After Xia Xingchen finished reading it, it was already two hours later, and then he looked at the invitation for the dinner party. It was specially marked that everyone attending the party had to wear formal attire.
She has a headache.
She did have dresses, but they were only suitable for small parties, not for grand occasions. They were not of the same level.
When Xia Xingchen was having a headache, her cell phone suddenly rang. The four words on the screen made her stunned for a moment. She put down the mouse and answered the call.
"Is the child still with you?"
"No. I just asked the driver to pick him up. I had a job at the last minute and couldn't accompany him."
"What job?"
"At tonight's charity dinner, I am responsible for interpreting for a deputy minister."
Bai Yeqing didn't say anything, as if he was thinking about something. Since he didn't speak, Xia Xingchen also remained silent. After a while, he said, "Just wait at home for a while, don't go anywhere."
Xia Xingchen didn't understand what he meant, but he didn't want to explain. The two of them didn't talk about anything, and the other party hung up the phone. He was always busy.
After hanging up the phone, she took out the dresses in her closet one by one and compared them one by one. After comparing, it still didn't work. It seemed that she had to go out and rent a dress. However, Bai Yeqing told her not to go anywhere now. I don't know what he is up to.
She looked at the time. The dinner was to start at 7 o'clock, so she would just wait until 5 o'clock. There was some information she needed to look at.
Xia Xingchen held the computer and looked at it for a while. At this moment, the doorbell suddenly rang.
She was suspicious and quickly got up to open the door.
Outside the door stood a very beautiful woman, wearing a black and white suit, elegant and graceful.
"Miss Xia." The other party smiled and bowed slightly to greet her. Xia Xingchen had never seen her before, and just when she was about to ask, the other party introduced herself, "Mr. Bai specially asked me to come here, you can just call me May."
Mr. Bai must be referring to Bai Yeqing. Xia Xingchen glanced behind her. There were many people following her. It seemed that she didn't want to mention the word "President" in front of others.
She smiled slightly and stepped aside, "Come in and talk."
May nodded and went in. Several people followed her, each holding something in their hands.
Xia Xingchen was confused, not knowing what Bai Yeqing wanted her to do. May had already opened her mouth and ordered, "Take out the things and let Miss Xia have a look."
then…
Three completely different, yet equally luxurious and exquisite dresses slowly appeared before her. At that moment, even this small room seemed to become brighter.
May looked at her with a smile, "Ms. Xia, please pick one. These three pieces are all made by the famous Mr. E.S. They are in great demand."
"These were all prepared by Bai Ye... Mr. Bai?" Xia Xingchen glanced at the people around him and changed his words.
"Yes. And this." May gestured with her hand, and several brocade boxes opened in front of her. The dazzling gems made it almost impossible for her to open her eyes. "These ornaments have been displayed in the museum. Mr. Bai is very thoughtful."
Xia Xingchen was surprised and touched. She had never expected Bai Yeqing to think of these things for her. Just now on the phone, she did not mention her troubles at all.
only…
As these things unfolded before her, she felt more and more that they were really from different worlds. He was at the top of the food chain, looking down on all living things; and what about her
Xia Xingchen's fingers touched those luxurious jewels, and her heart ached a little. "Matching people of equal social status" is actually a rule passed down from our ancestors, but it also makes sense now. Some people are born to be looked up to.
