Xu Qiao received Zhu Li's wedding invitation during her confinement period.
Three years ago, Xu Qiao would think this was a very unbelievable thing. After all, these years, Zhu Li has been an unmarriageist who "keeps his ears off the love affairs and only reads about his career".
Zhu Li's family environment is actually worse than Xu Qiao's.
At the beginning, Xu's father matched Xu Qiao with Cheng Ye, hoping that she would marry into a wealthy family. The root cause was that Jin Lu was in bankruptcy, so he rushed to send her to a good home, so that she would not have to suffer from the family's downfall.
But the Zhu family is different. The Zhu family did not have any financial difficulties, and Zhu's father did everything possible to get Zhu Ligao married in order to pursue higher family interests.
In the Zhu family's generation, there is only Zhu Li, a girl. A wealthy marriage can give her brothers and younger brothers a strong backing in the mall.
Zhu Li didn't like doing business since she was a child. She took this path at first because of her rebellious psychology: why should she use marriage to exchange her brothers and younger brothers who are famous in the business world? Why should her life pave the way for others
She also wants to live in front of people in style.
So she struggled, resisted and struggled, and went against the wind to build her own business and run her own hotel.
At the same time, marriage is also prejudiced.
She knew that there would be a happy marriage in this world, but she didn't believe that such a marriage would happen to her.
So not only Xu Qiao, but also Zhu Li himself thought that she would probably end up alone in this life.
But life does not really go to the end, it seems that the ending is always unpredictable.
On the day of Xu Qiao's birthday three years ago, there was an unknown follow-up to the after party of the "deep sea" fashion show at Beicheng Art Museum.
That night, after Cheng Lang took Xu Qiao and Xu's father to leave the meeting early, Shen Dang also said goodbye to everyone because of his private schedule, and asked Zhu Li if he wanted to go with him.
In Zhu Li's view, Shen Dang's social habits are somewhat similar to Cheng Lang's - polite, steady, and thoughtful. The reason why he left Jiang Fang, chatted with her throughout the fashion show, and deliberately picked the venture capitalists she was interested in The topic is probably out of the gentleman's complex of "not letting girls be left alone", and the last question "Do you need me to take you home" is also the same.
Such a gentleman is certainly not a bad thing, but Zhu Li is not used to being regarded as a weak side.
Earlier that night at Yujinfang Muse, after Cheng Lang took Xu Qiao away, he told Shen Dang and Jiang Fang to send her home, and in the end she also called a substitute driver.
So she declined Shen Dang as usual.
After Shen Dang left, Jiang Fang was not so considerate, probably because he didn't want to see Zhu Li, so he just took his "wine partner" Song Mian tonight to have a drink with him.
As far as Zhu Li knows, Song Mian was also a member of this circle before, but he disappeared when his family was backward when he was a teenager. It should have been a long time since he had been in contact with this kind of scene of drunkenness and luxury. What I took was actually Pu'er tea.
Although he didn't fit in with this sensual place, Song Mian was gentle and didn't spoil people's taste, and he didn't leave the table early. He answered Jiang Fang's questions one by one.
Jiang Fang chatted with him very familiarly, and the content of the chat was medical technology—one of them was engaged in the technology industry, and the other was in medicine. At first glance, this topic seems to be quite harmonious
Zhu Li listened to them a few times when he passed by them, and felt bored, so he didn't join, and continued to go to social.
Networks are slowly accumulated during the parties. At this kind of party, there are always people in the business circle who are worth meeting. Zhu Li chatted with people with witty words while pushing glasses and changing glasses, seeming to be able to do a job with ease.
Jiang Fang and Song Mian were chatting, and their attention was drawn to the laughing woman in the crowd, and he said with emotion: "Now all the girls are so capable?"
"Women don't give way to men, Miss Zhu is really good at business." Song Mian followed his gaze and nodded.
Professional charisma is a strange thing. Just like a pianist who usually looks unattractive, when his fingers land on the black and white keys, his whole body will exude an eye-catching light. At this moment, Zhu Li also looks so interesting.
Zhu Li is not like Xu Qiao whose appearance is amazing at first glance, and his figure is too flat, so thin that he lacks the bulging front and back. He seems too few in the crowd of bright and enchanting women. light.
But in the workplace or social arena, such women have their own attractive charm.
Jiang Fang recalled the few times he met Zhu Li before, and thought strangely, was he blind before, why didn't he realize that this woman is pretty good-looking
Although the facial features can't be seen separately, they are exquisite, and they look more comfortable when put together.
This thought flashed by, Jiang Fang didn't go into it, and continued to chat with Song Mian, but maybe Zhu Li's golden streamer dress with broken diamond suspenders was too dazzling, and it dazzled his sight from time to time.
After Song Mian found out that he had looked at Zhu Li more than once, he didn't know if he had realized something, so he bid farewell to him understandingly, saying that he still had some medical records to sort out.
Jiang Fang was the only one left in the corner, sitting on the sofa and pouring wine in boredom. After drinking a glass of wine, when he raised his eyes, he saw a man beside Zhu Li.
More than half of the people in this meeting were familiar faces, and Jiang Fang certainly knew who they were.
Zhou Jie, the eldest son of Chairman Chou of Bisheng Real Estate, did not do very well in business, and the women were prosperous.
When Jiang Fang looked over, he happened to see Zhou Jiexu hugging Zhu Li's waist.
The reason why he said Xu Lan was because Zhu Li quietly took a step back and took a drink from the waiter.
Jiang Fang saw that she seemed to be used to the wind and waves, and she was familiar with dealing with this kind of salty pig, and she didn't mind her own business, but she didn't look away, and she fell on Zhou Jie with ease.
He is also a man, Jiang Fang can clearly see that the playful expression on Zhou Jie's face shows his "sexual interest" towards Zhu Li.
The inferiority of men is that they have a natural desire to conquer women who are unwilling to submit to themselves.
Along the way, wherever Zhu Li went, Zhou Jie followed him, with a stupid look on his face that said, "Woman, you caught my attention"—of course, from Jiang Fang's point of view, he might think that this Domineering and handsome.
When Zhou Jie tried to have physical contact with Zhu Li for the third time, and Zhu Li avoided it with a smile for the third time, Jiang Fang put down his wine glass.
There was a loud noise in the quiet corner, and the scarlet wine spilled on the unnoticed coffee table.
If it were Cheng Lang or Shen Dang, at this time, they would probably use the method of killing people in the social arena to solve the predicament for their friends.
But Jiang Fang doesn't like to hide a knife in a smile with twists and turns.
The Zhu family has business dealings with the Zhou family, and Zhu Li is in the way of the family, so it's not good to tear up the face with the Zhou family. He doesn't care, he goes up and glances at Zhou Jie coldly, and asks Zhu Li with a calm face: "Have you finished chatting? Let's go after chatting, Tired of waiting."
Zhu Li was stunned by his menacing posture, and quickly reacted.
She didn't make any agreement with Jiang Fang, she came to make a rescue after seeing the injustice.
Zhu Li raised his eyebrows, walked down the steps, said "Oh", and looked at Zhou Jie: "Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry."
Zhou Jie and Jiang Fang looked at each other.
"Mr. Jiang seems to be busy?" He asked with a smile.
"Yeah, I'm the only son in the family, and I don't have to bother fighting for the family property. I close my eyes and do business every day waiting for the money to come. If I'm not idle, who will be idle?" Jiang Fang grabbed Zhu Li's wrist and took him away, comparing him to him. "Bye" gesture.
Zhou Jie's face was livid with anger.
Zhu Li laughed so hard that his shoulders trembled as he walked out with Jiang Fang.
Who doesn't know that the Zhou family has many sons. Although Zhou Jie is the eldest son, because of his poor business ability, he was divided by a few small powers.
This can be described as hitting the nail on the head and refreshing.
I can't tell that Jiang Fang is an idiot in small things, but he is quite capable in big things.
Leaving the banquet hall, Zhu Li took the walk away from his palm, and Jiang Fang also relaxed.
"Boss Jiang, you're quite tough." Zhu Li looked sideways at him with a look of admiration.
Jiang Fang sneered: "Are you being stubborn? Then Xiao Zhu has never seen me..." He was halfway through speaking when he suddenly saw a delicate figure, a little girl walking towards the banquet hall looking around, looking anxiously. , as if looking for someone.
"Sister Lihua?" Jiang Fang called to stop the visitor.
Fu Li said "ah" in a low voice: "Brother Jiang, why are you here?"
"Why can't I be here?" He raised his eyebrows, "It's almost over, what are you doing here?"
"I'm looking for someone..." Fu Li walked up to him and said guiltily.
Jiang Fang was angry and funny: "Don't tell me, you have been chasing the National People's Congress for half a year and you still haven't got it. The money I gave you for making men is all for nothing?"
Zhu Li hugged his chest and leaned against the wall, looking lively.
From the looks of it, this is the heroine of the "February 13 Incident".
Fu Li looked at Zhu Li in embarrassment, nodded her head and greeted her, and then answered Jiang Fang in a low voice: "Hurry up, Hurry up..."
"Soon, can you find this place secretly? Let me tell you, there are not many lonely people here tonight, except for your clean and self-sufficient Brother Jiang. Do you understand what it means?"
When Fu Li heard this, she got angry: "You're talking nonsense, he doesn't have a girlfriend!"
"Then why are you in such a rush to catch the traitor?" Jiang Fang smiled a little hesitantly, "Come on, tell brother, what is his name, and I will go in and arrest him for you?"
Fu Li looked at him warily.
"Why?" Jiang Fang spread his hands, "It's been half a year, I'm not angry anymore, isn't it just taking my money for men, my brother is very calm."
"Little sister," Zhu Li interjected with a smile, "don't listen to your brother farting, he also said tonight that he would find a needle in a haystack and cut him to death."
Fu Li turned around and left: "Then I won't find anyone...!"
Jiang Fang chased after him and stopped them: "Hey, it's all here, I really don't want to look for it anymore?"
Just as Fu Li was about to speak, there was a vibration in her handbag. She avoided Jiang Fang's sight and answered the phone: "Ah, have you left already?"
"Oh, then I'll go home too."
"Don't turn back, I will take a taxi myself."
Fu Li hung up the phone: "He's gone, so I'll go back too."
"Do you believe this too?" Jiang Fang pointed at the banquet hall amusedly, "Go in and have a look now, you might be hugging left and right."
"He never lied!" Fu Li argued like a child.
Jiang Fang "tsk tsk" shook his head: "Okay, then I'll take you home." He said and looked back at Zhu Li.
Before he could open his mouth to propose anything, Zhu Li had already raised his hands in surrender, expressing that he would leave her alone: "I have a driver, so don't bother Boss Jiang to deliver it."
"I don't need you either." Fu Li picked up her phone and clicked on the taxi app.
What's wrong with this world, is Jiang Fang not handsome enough or not rich enough, is he just so worthless
Seeing Fu Li go out, Jiang Fang followed again: "Okay, I'll take you to the car, okay? It's not safe to take a taxi at night, so I'll say hello to the driver."
Fu Li couldn't refuse anymore, and followed him to the side of the road outside the art museum to wait for the bus.
After waiting for a few minutes, a taxi stopped in front of the two of them.
Because it was a passenger car, the two didn't pay attention at first, until the rear door opened and a man got out.
Fu Li and Jiang Fang were attracted by this familiar figure at the same time.
"Doctor Song?"
"Brother Song?"
The two spoke in unison in surprise.
Song Mian took advantage of the street lights to look at the two of them with narrowed eyes, stepped forward, and greeted Jiang Fang: "Mr. Jiang."
"You two know each other?" Fu Li looked at Jiang Fang and then at Song Mian.
Little did they know that Jiang Fang and Song Mian also wanted to ask this question.
The two men cautiously did not answer immediately. Jiang Fang vaguely guessed the situation in silent thinking: "Doctor Song, may I ask what is your birthday?"
Song Mian blinked slowly, but before he could answer, Fu Li suddenly covered his mouth.
This action is obviously no different from directly answering "February 13th".
Jiang Fang smiled blankly, and looked at the nervous Fu Li with a smile: "Okay, Fu Li, you have a lot of brothers?"
