Qin Hao's personality was inherently lazy. Even though he wanted to forgive Lin Aocang, he still didn't like such occasions, wearing a mask and making false polite remarks. With his status, he had no need to cater to others like this. If Mu Qianxue hadn't come here, with his temper, he wouldn't have even looked at him if eight large sedans came to carry him.
Fortunately, such greetings did not last long. A figure in a short red dress appeared in front of Qin Hao. His short shoulder-length hair was carefully combed, neat and elegant, and pulled to both sides, revealing his exquisite and pure hair. The face was none other than Lin Xinyi, whom she had not seen for some time.
Qin Hao is not surprised that Lin Xinyi appears here. As Lin Dongqiang's daughter, brother and mother are all business elites, and the Lin family is a prominent family in Tianhai. It is normal for her to attend.
However, Qin Hao was more curious that Lin Xinyi would be interested in this kind of wine party. This was not like her character.
"Xinyi, this way." Lin Aocang waved to his sister, motioning for her to come over.
Obviously, Mu Qianxue was also very happy about Lin Xinyi's appearance. She actually hated this kind of hypocritical entertainment. When she could see her good friend here, she immediately greeted him with a smile.
Looking at the watch on his wrist, Lin Aocang smiled apologetically at Qin Hao: "Mr. Qin, Mr. Mu, I may have to be with you for a while, please forgive me."
Then she looked at Lin Xinyi: "Xinyi, help me greet Mr. Mu and Mr. Qin. I still have some work to do for the dinner."
"Hmm..." Lin Xinyi responded lukewarmly. Qin Hao and Mu Qianxue had known for a long time that her relationship with her family was not very harmonious, and they didn't think there was any problem.
Lin Aocang was obviously used to his sister's attitude. He smiled and left with a few followers without saying anything.
"Xiaoxue, I'm sorry." After Lin Aocang left, Lin Xinyi suddenly looked serious and apologized to Mu Qianxue in an extremely formal manner. Mu Qianxue was stunned, looking like a monk two feet tall and confused.
Qin Hao could roughly guess some, but there were some things he couldn't say, so it was better not to talk too much.
Lin Xinyi pursed her lips tightly, bowed slightly, and said apologetically: "I have actually known about my uncle for a long time. Due to some reasons, I was unable to show up during that time. You must have been very hard and sad, but I was not with you. Be by your side and spend time with you. I know that these are all excuses now, so I don’t expect you to forgive me. I just want to tell you how sorry I am in my heart. In the future, you don’t have to worry about me pestering you. Looking at you, I am not qualified to say that I like you, nor am I qualified to call myself a good friend! I have thought about apologizing to you before, but I really don’t have the face to see you... "
Qin Hao knew the cause and effect. When Mu Qianxue's accident happened, it was just after the trip to Yinshan Mountain. At that time, Lin Xinyi was injured in her leg and she should be recuperating. Moreover, the Lin family would not agree with Lin Xinyi getting involved in this muddy water. Lin Dongqiang spent a lot of effort before selling his daughter at a good price and getting engaged to the eldest son of the Xu family. If you offend your brother-in-law and aunt, isn't this the rhythm of losing all your previous efforts
Mu Qianxue had no idea that Lin Xinyi was apologizing for this incident, nor did she expect that her reaction and guilt would be so intense that she would break off the relationship. She quickly interrupted Lin Xinyi's apology and hugged her: "Silly girl, What are you thinking about? It was really hard for me during that time, but haven’t I gotten through it now? We are friends, there is no doubt about it. Although you didn’t come, it’s enough for me to know your thoughts. . In fact, I know even if you don’t tell me, it would be impossible for you to come because of your situation at that time. It would only make things difficult for you. I have already lost a family member, and you don’t want me to lose another friend, right? "
"Xiaoxue..." Lin Xinyi murmured softly, her eyes a little red, but she quickly held it back. She probably also knew that it was not appropriate to be emotional in public.
Just as the two women were talking to each other, there was a sound that made everyone involuntarily cast their eyes on the auction stage. An old man with gray hair slowly walked onto the stage. According to Mu Qianxue, this person was the New Merchant Gang Yangtze River Delta Merchant Gang. The founder of is a big boss in the real estate industry. Following him, besides Lin Aocang, there was another man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a decent white suit with a bright red rose printed on his chest. He was elegant in manner and quite handsome in appearance.
The most important thing is that this person's position is exactly between the old man and Lin Aocang.
Position depends on identity and status.
Maybe he was being polite and condescending, but being able to stand between these two people meant that he was destined to be a good person.
The old man's speech was not too polite. He briefly thanked the many big shots present for their support and compliments, and then dropped a piece of bombshell news. In fact, the real promoter of this charity dinner was this young man next to him. Young people under thirty at most.
Now people are more curious about the identity of this unfamiliar young man. The old man once again dropped a bombshell. The young man will join the Yangtze River Delta Business Gang and serve as the vice president. Obviously, as long as he has some brains, Everyone can see that the old man is praising this young man and treating him as his successor.
After everyone's appetite was whetted, the old man finally announced the identity of the young man. Although it was only a few words, there was a lot of information.
Liu Dongchen, a Chinese-American, his ancestors were once a relatively prestigious line of Shanxi merchants. Later, China was in war. In order to avoid the war, the Liu family migrated to Europe. When they returned to China this time, it was said that they brought a large amount of funds with them to invest.
Qin Hao didn't care about these messages, or in other words, he didn't bother to care who the other party was.
After the opening ceremony, the next step was the sign-in ceremony for members of the business gang and the Pearl Club. After all, it was a charity dinner, and show promotion was also part of it.
Mu Qianxue doesn't care about using this method for publicity. In her words, no matter what her purpose is and whether it is pure or not, she still uses real money and silver to do charity, which is better than those who use pen and ink to use pen and ink. Or the news media and keyboard warriors who hide behind the Internet and blame others for guiding public opinion are coming. At least, she has made a contribution.
Mu Qianxue went to participate in the sign-in ceremony. Only Qin Hao and Lin Xinyi were left in this corner. Since the last trip to Yinshan, the two had not seen each other or contacted each other. The so-called friendship was almost empty talk.
Qin Hao understood that the reason why it became like this was that Mu Qianxue was still resentful of herself. Because of their different concepts, the two had conflicts. At the same time, it was also because she herself might not have recovered from the pain and self-blame.
In fact, Qin Hao later felt that he was a little self-motivated. After all, Lin Xinyi had not experienced as much as him. For her, so many soldiers lost their lives to protect her, a loser, and anger and revenge had already swallowed up her reason. There would be That kind of extreme thinking is normal. He should try to understand her a little, or at least, shouldn't quarrel with her.
It was precisely because of his experience that he understood what kind of pain and torture it was.
"Long time no see. How have you been these days?" Qin Hao didn't know what to say. He was silent for a long time before slowly speaking.
"It's not bad. At least, I'm much better than those soldiers who died." Lin Xinyi twitched the corner of her mouth and forced a very forced smile. She did not tell Qin Hao that in fact, since she was rescued, she He never had a good night's sleep, and every day he dreamed of soldiers dying tragically in front of him and being devoured by zombies.
"sorry."
"Huh?" Qin Hao was caught off guard by the sudden apology.
Lin Xinyi didn't care about Qin Hao's doubts and said to herself: "I should apologize to you. At that time, I was blinded by anger and hatred and lost my mind. You are just an ordinary person, and so am I. Neither the country nor the country has the power or qualifications to let you do such dangerous things. Fighting means there will be casualties. We are soldiers, and this is the path we choose. That is the outcome we should consider before making the choice. .
You are different, you don't have those obligations. Those warriors are living beings, and so are you. Just because you are strong, it is so unfair to ask you to do things that may cost you your life. What's more, you saved me and put yourself in danger for us. I was too greedy and selfish. If something really happened to you, I really don’t know how I could see Xiaoxue. She will probably hate me forever. I owe you and your wife so much..."
"It's not that serious, but it's best if you can figure it out. At that time, I was a little emotional. Don't blame me. We should still be friends, right? This is what you proposed in the first place. You don't want to To tear it up unilaterally?" In the final analysis, Qin Hao and Mu Qianxue are similar. They actually care about these few, and they are even Qin Hao's only friends. Seeing that she understands his actions, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief. .
"Of course." Lin Xinyi pretended to be relaxed and said, "How can I blame you? Besides, you are not wrong at all. After this incident, I think it is actually good to have a loyal friend like you. , at least you can save your life at critical moments.”
"Heh..." Qin Hao smiled, and then said: "Your legs, why don't you wear a long evening dress?"
He had long noticed that there was a long and ferocious scar on Lin Xinyi's injured leg. It was like a centipede and extremely ugly. It was not suitable for girls who love beauty.
Moreover, Lin Xinyi happened to be wearing a short evening dress, and she didn't seem to have any intention of covering it up. Everything below her knees was exposed to everyone's sight, and naturally some people could see the scar.
However, based on Qin Hao's medical skills, as long as Lin Xinyi's injuries were treated with modern advanced medicine, they should not have left such hideous and ugly scars. Even if there were, they would not be so ugly, unless it was her own. Deliberately delaying the best opportunity for treatment.
But why
"Why cover it up?" Lin Xinyi asked, and then replied to Qin Hao: "This is a glorious medal, but it is not awarded to me, but to the soldiers who sacrificed their lives. If they can't get it, let me show it to them. come out."
