Shu Yan's words flowed through her ears like a burst of electricity, and the numbness spread from her neck like her whole body, and her waist was exposed when touched by her fingers.

Yi Xiaoan was hooped to the wall by her, with ambiguous postures, boldly provocative, and almost taboo words rang in his ears, Yi Xiaoan's face was still blushing unconsciously to the base of his ears.

She avoided Shu Yan's gaze: "Let go~" The voice was tantamount to coquettishness.

Shu Yan didn't let go, and asked tactfully: "Why?"

"Yes, someone will see it."

"Then just go to a place where no one is around?" Shu Yan didn't back down, and by the way, she reached out to help Yi Xiao'an pull a strand of loose hair behind her ear.

He even touched her earlobe with his fingertips.

There was the sound of the elevator going up next to it, and with a soft "ding", it stopped steadily on the 18th floor.

Seeing that someone was about to come out, Yi Xiaoan panicked. The photo she had just shown on the big screen for almost half an hour should be recognized by everyone present.

The sound of the elevator door opening came along with the talking and laughing. It was almost an instinctive memory of the body, or a kind of trust cultivated over the years. Yi Xiaoan didn't want to push Shuyan away and run away, but subconsciously Hide in her arms.

In less than a second, Shu Yan hugged her in her arms and turned around half a circle, letting Yi Xiaoan bury her in her arms, with her back to those people.

The few who came out were guests from unknown countries in suits and dresses, and they might have arrived late, but they were led by the organizer's staff.

As soon as the elevator door opened, a lady might not have thought that there would be someone here, so she reflexively said "ohmygod" and took a step back.

One of the American men in a suit thought Shu Yan looked familiar, and just as he frowned and wanted to say hello, Shu Yan narrowed his eyes, and gently lowered his other index finger to his lips to take a deep look at him, as if he was afraid that he would disturb his arms. Miss.

Several people glanced at each other, and after exchanging a look of "knowing everything", they hurriedly left without saying a word.

When the sound of their footsteps dissipated, Yi Xiaoan came out of Shu Yan's arms like a little quail, the flush on his face hadn't faded yet.

Seeing her appearance, Shu Yan seemed to lose her temper, and took her hand from her waist: "Want to go in?"

Yi Xiaoan stared blankly at Shuyan for a while, as if he remembered to question her, pulled Shuyan aside, puffed up his cheeks and asked her:

"So you were the investor in the first row just now?" Yi Xiaoan's voice was crisp.

"Hmm." Shu Yan did not deny it.

"Then Chloe..."

"An English name I used before."

"Your dress..."

"Just changed."

"Then when I asked you, you said..."

Shu Yan raised her chin towards the delicate bag in her hand: "Miss Yi doesn't seem to have asked me where I am."

"..."

Yi Xiaoan was completely defeated, and the music rang in the banquet hall on the 18th floor, Shu Yan glanced inside: "The buyer of that painting is inside, and there may be some reporters, relax and chat, don't be afraid. If you don't like the question, you can politely decline it, it doesn't matter,"

It's teaching her how to wait and how to deal with performance.

Yi Xiaoan raised his eyebrows suddenly: "Aren't you going in?"

Shu Yan shook her head: "The investment is temporary, and the interest relationship has been discussed before, and I have no intersecting interests with them."

Seeing that Yi Xiaoan obviously disagreed with the answer, and his fingers were still hooked on her wrist, he had an expression of wanting to go in together.

Shu Yan had no choice but to lower her head slightly and approach her: "My identity may cause trouble to you, so I won't go in."

After she finished speaking, she leaned over slightly again: "Good boy."

Yi Xiaoan entered the banquet hall. The banquet hall on the 18th floor was much more advanced than the exhibition hall on the first floor. The entire hall was covered with plush Persian carpets.

The champagne forest reflected in the crystal goblet was crystal clear, and the melodious music and pleasant English conversations came and went.

Yi Xiaoan found Iris and had a brief chat with her. Iris almost hugged Yi Xiaoan on the spot. The owner of such a high price of 480w was her friend, and she felt a kind of heartfelt honor.

She also winked with Yi Xiaoan exaggeratedly, saying that she found out that the person who took pictures of her paintings was the CEO of an international group company that has done a good job in charity in the United States in recent years, and told Yi Xiaoan that It is indeed a very happy thing for both parties to have a painting in her hands.

Her Japanese girlfriend had liked Yi Xiaoan before, and seeing Yi Xiaoan's beautiful and elegant shining moment today, it was difficult to take her eyes away from her for a while.

Yi Xiaoan clicked with her till the end, thanked her briefly, and then walked forward.

Their painters will be greeted and guided by special staff, and she has attracted some attention as soon as she entered, and now she continues to walk forward, and soon meets the buyer CEO.

She is a middle-aged woman with a very elegant temperament, her half-long hair is skillfully draped over her shoulders, her suit and accessories are all low-key dark colors, Yi Xiaoan feels that although she is not sitting in the red chair in the first row today , her financial strength should also far surpass Shu Yan.

Fortunately, this fool didn't keep raising the price today.

Yi Xiao'an had a brief chat with her, and after the chat, he realized that this lady did not know her before, and had no contact with their school. The reason why she chose that price was entirely because of the painting itself.

She said that when she was young, she went to a small town in southern China.

Coincidentally, the scenery in that painting seems to have been seen before, as if it came to reality from a dream, so I just took a look and decided.

Although she didn't use a lot of technical terms, Yi Xiao'an could feel that this painting was a good home here.

An impulse that almost wanted to cry happened in such a seemingly simple and casual conversation, and she suddenly remembered the words that Shu Yan had just sent her a message.

"One day, your paintings can also be hung under the dome and admired by others"

"One day, they will also have their own supreme value."

After chatting with this buyer, Yi Xiaoan was indeed hungry. While chatting with Iris, she picked up some snacks and ate casually. After a while, more and more people came to chat with them, especially for her painting before. Those who had bid all gathered around, as if they were looking at this Asian girl who had just arrived, and at the same time trying to leave contact information with her.

Iris has strong communication skills, and she is also in the same school as Yi Xiaoan, which helped her avoid many boring and repetitive questions.

A middle-aged man from an unknown country who made a special bid before came, and his eyes were fixed on Yi Xiaoan, which made Yi Xiaoan feel very uncomfortable.

She casually followed up with a few polite words, and I don't know if it was caused by surprises from all sides. Yi Xiaoan felt that some of his questions were indeed a bit offensive, and one question even made Iris speechless.

If Shu Yan is here...

Iris prevaricated, and finally sent the man away only to realize that Yi Xiaoan was a little distracted. She poked Yi Xiaoan lightly: "Why are you distracted on this occasion?"

Yi Xiao'an recovered and shook his head: "It's nothing."

"Are you tired?" Iris felt that Yi Xiaoan might be a little tired.

Yi Xiaoan also shook her head. In fact, it has only been a few hours so far, and she is not very tired, but for some reason, it is difficult for her to concentrate on this dinner party, which should expand contacts and exchange art.

Instead, I kept thinking about the person who had left.

He also said that his identity was inappropriate to come together.

fraud.

It was hard to get excited about everything in front of her eyes, and the awkward chatting and shaking hands made Yi Xiaoan feel even more tired. She held on for a while, but finally felt bored, and her temples were a little stuffy. Yi Xiaoan stretched out her fingers and rubbed them, pulling Iris beside : "Do you want to go together?"

They all went back to the apartment near the school, and with the four of Grace, a car just fit them.

Iris took another sip of champagne secretly, and walked down with Yi Xiaoan with her girlfriend in her arms.Yi Xiaoan sent a message to Grace, asking her if it was over there, Grace said that it was ready long ago, and said that she was waiting for Yi Xiaoan in the lobby on the first floor.

Yi Xiao'an originally felt a little guilty for letting Grace eat alone on the first floor, but for some reason, she seemed to have a very happy tone, maybe she made some friends.

The three of them walked down and waved to Grace as soon as they reached the lobby. None of them was driving today. Just as Yi Xiaoan was about to take out his mobile phone to call a car, Grace waved his hand quickly: "NO, NO"

"what happened?"

"Yan has gone to drive and should be outside by now."

"Shu Yan?" Iris raised two eyebrows and asked Shu Yan's name with a strong accent.

"She...hasn't left yet?" Yi Xiaoan was also a little surprised.

Grace also had a puzzled expression: "Don't you know? She has been waiting for you to come down and take us back."

"..."

Yi Xiaoan quickened his pace and walked out. The black Bentley was waiting at the door with the headlights on. When Iirs heard that it was Shu Yan, he hesitated for a long time, and finally got pushed by his girlfriend before getting into the car.

Yi Xiaoan got into the co-pilot, and before she could speak, Iris in the back seat noticed the suit on Shu Yan's body sharply. She let out a low exclamation and asked in English, "So you are the one who just participated in the auction?" ?”

Shu Yan glanced at her from the rearview mirror: "Yes."

"Is it your favorite way to always appear suddenly?" Iris felt a little bit sorry for Yi Xiao'an, this woman always appeared suddenly to play handsome, and she was most annoyed by this.

Shu Yan was not polite when she heard it, and said, "I have the right to refuse to answer your question."

After Shu Yan finished speaking, she started the car, and there was a car full of people, so Yi Xiaoan couldn't ask any more questions.

Iris and the others lived not too close to Yi Xiaoan's apartment, so Yi Xiaoan reported their address first, and then blinked to signal to Shu Yan that she wanted her to be sent back by the way. After all, it was not safe for the two girls to be on the street at night.

Shu Yan didn't say anything, turned on the navigation and followed the map to set off.

The car drove all the way, Shuyan had nothing to say, Iris was not idle, the three of them were discussing tonight's auction in the back row, at first Yi Xiaoan also turned around to say a few words, but then for some reason, her eyelids became more and more nervous Shen, finally leaned directly on the back seat and fell asleep.

Yi Xiao'an opened his eyes suddenly when he felt Shu Yan pat her.She glanced outside, it was her apartment, probably Iris and the others had already left, Yi Xiaoan wondered why she was sleeping so deeply and didn't hear them get off the car.

stop here? Iris in the backseat looked outside and frowned.

Shu Yan raised her voice slightly, glanced at Yi Xiaoan and said in a deep voice: "You are sleepy, go back to sleep first, and I will send them back."

Yi Xiao'an was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "I just slept for a while and I'm not sleepy anymore, let's go together."

Shu Yan and Iris didn't deal with each other in the first place, how weird it would be for Shu Yan to send them off alone.

Shu Yan looked at Yi Xiaoan's sleepy look, and didn't agree: "Don't worry, it will be delivered safely."

After speaking, she tilted her head back: "Grace is sleepy too."

The whole car was quiet for a while, after listening to their conversation, Iris pouted, deliberately glanced at Yi Xiaoan, and said in French: "Ann, if you don't get out of the car, she probably won't see us away. "

"After all, this is in line with the CEO's behavior style. I think you might not like it either?" She smiled after speaking in French, as if sharing some interesting secret with Yi Xiaoan .

Yi Xiaoan looked at Shuyan, Shuyan didn't know French, she keenly felt that if someone else did this in front of her, she would not be happy.

"Stop talking about Iris." Yi Xiaoan frowned slightly and interrupted her in English.

She raised her head and glanced at Shuyan again, the other person's expression remained unchanged, as if she didn't understand, but she didn't care what Iris said at all.

Yi Xiao'an didn't delay any more, told Shu Yan that she was sorry, and told her to go back early after seeing them off.

It was past 11 o'clock outside, and it was not safe for Shu Yan to drive alone on the road.

"Okay." Shu Yan promised her.

Yi Xiao'an and Grace got out of the car, Shu Yan clicked on the navigation, and drove to Iris and their apartment without saying a word.

After arriving at the destination in about 20 minutes, the Japanese girl and Shu Yan thanked each other. Iris had no choice but to say thank you in English, and mumbled something in French before getting off the car.

"Your teaching method is not suitable for non-native speakers." Iris was about to open the door and get out of the car when a fluent French came from the front.

Iris subconsciously glanced at the girlfriend next to her, and reacted after seeing her equally shocked expression: "Do you speak French?"

Couldn't it be that... she could understand every time she spoke French in front of Yi Xiao'an before?

Including just now?

Shu Yan glanced at her in the rearview mirror and replied in fluent French: "I have been learning French as a second foreign language since I was 12 years old."

"..."

"However, you are good at teaching Xiaoan in general, but there is a problem with the method of individual pronunciation."

"Get out of the car."

Shu Yan's tone became lighter every sentence, and she spoke fluent and elegant French, which did not make anyone doubt how old she was.

Iris stood on the side of the road with her girlfriend until she watched the Bentley disappear from view.

Until now, she seemed to understand a lot of the president's behavior.Because I know too much and have too much, I know enough to take care of and protect a person.

Shu Yan glanced at her phone, it was the message Yi Xiaoan sent her when she just arrived home.

She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and sent her a sentence: 【Delivery safely, go to bed early. 】

Waited for about 3 minutes, no reply.

Shu Yan put down her mobile phone and continued to drive. Yi Xiaoan's apartment is the only way to go back to her residence from here.

Yi Xiaoan was indeed a little sleepy when he just entered the door, and he tried to lie down on the bed for a while, but for some reason, the more he lay down, the more awake he became, and every scene that happened tonight kept replaying in his mind.

The quietness of the space infinitely magnifies every little movement, and I don't know if it's an auditory hallucination. Yi Xiao'an always feels that there is the sound of a car passing by just now, as if there are lights.

She picked up the phone and looked at it, only a message from Shu Yan saying that she was going home.

Yi Xiaoan put down her phone and lay back on the bed.

In the next second, Yi Xiaoan jumped up from the bed and opened the curtains almost like a telepathy, and downstairs on the street, he was listening to a familiar black Bentley.

Like a passerby in the dark night, he didn't want to disturb her, but just drove downstairs and waited for a while, so that he could get peace of mind tonight.

Yi Xiao'an just stood by the bed and stared blankly for a few seconds, then put on his slippers and ran down as if uncontrollably.

The door opened, and a gust of cold wind blew in. The people in the car also noticed it, and hurriedly opened the door and got out of the car.

Yi Xiao'an was simply wearing a black woolen overcoat. When he saw Shu Yan approaching, he was silent for a while and asked:

"Are you going to wait outside like this all the time?"

Shu Yan didn't expect that Yi Xiao'an would come down suddenly, put the unlit cigarette back into his suit pocket, and said in a daze, "I don't know you haven't slept yet."

The two of them got closer and closer like this, and the street lights stretched Shu Yan's shadow, just like she first appeared here a few months ago.

They stood at the door and were silent with each other for a while, Yi Xiaoan avoided Shu Yan's gaze: "You... want to go in?"

Shu Yan looked at her, with the cold wind brushing her face, she shook her head slightly: "No, it's too late."

"You...do you have anything to say?" Yi Xiao'an still didn't meet her eyes.

"Today is beautiful." Shu Yan looked at Yi Xiao'an and said generously.

Yi Xiaoan frowned lightly, then subconsciously touched his face with his hands: "I've already removed my makeup..."

"I mean painting." Shu Yan explained.

"you!"

"People are more beautiful. But not today, every day is beautiful." Before the little girl pouted, Shu Yan added with a smile.

"Xiao An, have you ever thought that I will go today?"

Yi Xiaoan seemed to be struggling in his heart for a long time, before finally nodding and telling the truth: "I imagined that you would go, but I never thought that you would really go."

It's like a sequelae, and it's like a conditioned reflex that doesn't dare to have expectations.

As if she understood the meaning of her words, Shu Yan's eyes moved, and she took another step forward:

"Xiao An, I have been in contact with the organizer since the first day you mentioned this charity dinner."

"My foundation in the United States is not very stable, and I cannot have the status of an investor in a short period of time, so this matter has been busy for a long time."

"You..." Yi Xiao'an looked up at Shu Yan, just like what Iris said, Shu Yan is not someone who likes to say in front of others the hard work behind something.But now, it stands in front of Yi Xiaoan, telling her the whole story without reservation.

"Xiao An, when I say this now, I don't want to tell you that I also have difficult things to do, and I don't want to show how much energy I put into chasing you."

Shu Yan's originally steady voice gradually became undulating, as if being blown cold by the wind, her water-like eyes were calm and affectionate.

It seems that these words have been brewing in her heart for some time, at this moment, at this night, standing in front of Yi Xiaoan, she said softly:

"Xiao An, I know there have been too many times when I didn't show up when you were expecting."

"And now, I just want to prove that every day in the future, I can be by your side whenever you may need me."

"Before I decided to come to the United States to find you, I didn't open the comic book you left behind that was full of our stories."

"I'm afraid that once I read that book, my guilt and compensation for you will affect my judgment. I'm very glad now that I didn't read that book at that time, so that I can soberly know how much I have. like you."

"It's not the kind called sister, not the kind who just wants to protect you and take care of you."

Shu Yan's voice was already trembling when she said this. They have experienced so many secret loves, misunderstandings and rejections, and it takes a lot of courage to stand in front of her and ask these words every time.

Shu Yan understands, and Yi Xiaoan also understands.The wind blew in front of the two of them, and the freezing temperature seemed to be silently persuading the confession to stop at this moment.

Yi Xiaoan raised her head and met Shu Yan's eyes, and then she heard:

"So, Xiao An, can you have another, even just one, expectation for me?"

The author has something to say: Low EQ: Are we together?
