This Damned Sweetness
Chapter 8:
The scene was deadly silent, and the people were collectively pressed the pause button. It was not until Jiang Fang laughed that Xu Qiao was convinced that what he saw was not a still picture.
"Little sister, how do you know?" Jiang Fang asked amusedly.
Shen Dang pulled his sleeves, hinting that he would shut up, and quietly pointed to Cheng Lang's strange look.
"Because..." Xu Qiao tucked her long black curly hair to her back, turned around and picked up a goblet containing orange-red wine, and walked to Cheng Lang, "I am that little girl."
Jiang Fang saw her face clearly, and said, "Hey wait a moment, I seem to know you. You are the gourd of Jinlu Jewelry..."
Xu Qiao looked at him sideways, and there was a big confusion in his big eyes: Are you okay, brother?
Jiang Fang immediately silenced, stretched out his hand and motioned for her to continue.
Xu Qiao turned his gaze back to Cheng Lang, tilted the goblet in his hand, and made a very beautiful gesture of inviting wine: "Get to know me, Jin Lu Xu Qiao, two Xu Qiao, Qiao Qiao up to the sky."
The four men except Cheng Lang looked at the woman with long legs, slender waist and bright makeup, and question marks one after another appeared on top of their heads: a pretty soft girl? Aggrieved at work? Is the family's financial condition average? Twisting is particularly pure?
Everyone held their breath and dared not breathe, and secretly looked at Cheng Lang, who was watching Xu Qiao without blinking.
Anyone familiar with Cheng Lang knows that this man's social skills are extraordinary, and he is calm and relaxed no matter how stormy the scene is. He treats women even more politely and meticulously. A cold field like this moment may be nothing to ordinary people, but to Cheng Lang, it is already a serious mistake.
Finally, after seeing Cheng Lang's long silence, they blinked very slowly twice, got up, and gently tapped the wine glass in their hand against Xu Qiao's wall: "Lan Chen Cheng Lang, He Mucheng, Lang Dalang Waves."
After speaking, the two took back their hands, raised their heads and drank the liquor in the glass.
Jiang Fang somehow, especially wanted to applaud this match of his opponent.
So he not only applauded, but also stood up and cheered: "Okay!"
The other three had to clap stiffly and politely. The whole scene was like the people celebrating the smooth meeting between the leaders of the two countries.
Xu Qiao and Cheng Lang: "..."
Everyone’s applause was enthusiastic and long-lasting, and they looked at each other, “It’s almost done, why are you still drumming?” “Aren’t you too?” “I don’t know where to put my hands after I stop.” “What should we do now? Not too smart"...
After the eye contact was completed, the four of them finally stopped and looked at Cheng Lang unanimously, waiting for him to end the awkward part of the situation.
Then they have a deep understanding of what is meant by "you are the boss or your boss".
Cheng Lang didn't seem to be disturbed by their stupid behavior at all. He tilted his head to the empty seat next to him and smiled and asked Xu Qiao: "Come and sit here with me?"
Xu Qiao pointed behind her hesitantly: "I still have a friend..."
Cheng Lang made a "please" gesture, indicating that they could be together.
Zhu Li, who had been hiding behind the partition and covering his face pretending to be dead, had to stand up and waved to everyone: "Hi..."
Cheng Lang recognized Zhu Li at a glance, nodded to her, turned sideways, and introduced the four people behind her and Xu Qiao: "Langxin Technology-Jiang Fang, Nanwo Venture Capital-Shen Dang, Huixin Bank- Fang Xing, Fang Sheng." Introduced Zhu Li to the four people, "Li Dun Hotel, Miss Zhu Li Zhu."
The four moved to the east side of the sofa under Cheng Lang's eyes, leaving the half circle on the west side to the two ladies.
Because of this layout, even if Xu Qiao and Cheng Lang in C are next to each other, they are separated by a full position.
But the atmosphere is not dry.
People in the same circle, they often overlapped in and out of the situation. After so many years, even if they are not familiar with each other, they have at least heard about each other. After Xu Qiao and Zhu Li sat down, there was something to say on both sides. The first thing they talked about was the opening ceremony of Li Dun a few days ago.
Xu Qiao obviously couldn't speak to the hotel industry. After Cheng Lang gave everyone a few sentences, he quickly jumped out of the topic circle and asked her, "Not going to work tonight?"
As soon as these words were said, the other people who "mouthed Cao Ying and heart in Han" continued to babble, and their eyes quietly glanced at them. One of the five people talked about business model, one talked about brand value, one talked about strategic plan, one talked about franchise, and one talked about enterprise mergers and acquisitions, and they could have a harmonious conversation.
"Yes," Xu Qiao replied with a sigh, "I have been on night shift for four days."
"How come there are so many night shifts?"
There was a hint of complaint in Xu Qiao's tone: "Because there is no call from you."
Cheng Lang's eyes changed slightly, his eyes lingered slowly on her face for a moment, picked up his mobile phone, turned to the dial interface and handed her: "Your number?"
Jiang Fang felt itching, and quit the offline group chat where the donkey's lips were not right to the horse's mouth. He also picked up his mobile phone and started an online hot chat among the three groups of "Zong Lang and his slutty brothers".
Brother Fang: "@潛弟, just this girl, you tell me about purity? Do you think Mr. Lang will give private calls casually? It's not so coquettish, so I can't stand it!"
Brother Fang: "Also, do you say she is embarrassed to charge more expensive skirts? Did you see the thing she was carrying, Hermes platinum bag, don't you think the skirt is not expensive enough?"
Brother Dang: "It's not what I said, these are the wise judgments of President Lang..."
Jiang Fang almost squirted out a sip of wine, suffocating his smile until he trembled.
Brother Fang: "A woman is really a book, and I flipped over it."
Shen Dang also began to tremble uncontrollably, until Cheng Lang's smiling gaze swept the knife, he twisted his thighs hard, suppressed his smile, and changed the subject: "Do the two ladies play dice?"
Xu Qiao just saved Cheng Lang's mobile phone number and replied: "I can..."
At the same time Zhu Li pulled her sleeves: "She has never played!"
Xu Qiao glanced at Zhu Li: "?"
What is this nonsense?
Zhu Li smiled and explained to everyone: "She hasn't played, but she can learn, let her watch us come a few." As he said, she squeezed Xu Qiao's finger gently, indicating her cooperation.
Xu Qiao said, "Then I will use my phone to check the rules", and secretly sent Zhu Li a message: "What the hell?"
Zhu Li shook the dice with one hand, and typed with the other: "I wanted to stop you when you rushed out to introduce yourself. According to my judgment, your Mr. Pagani likes pure money. You think you didn’t act boldly enough tonight. Let him know that you are the dice queen who swept North City nightclubs?"
Xu Qiao: "That's not because he said he was too innocent to play."
Zhu Li: "A man can believe what he says in front of his brother? It's like Hong Shixian saying, "You are so sorrowful." Actually, it is a reason to wish you more sorrow. You laughed when you didn't hear him say you are pure?"
Xu Qiao: "Oh, but this paper won't keep fire, and it's so tiring not to be yourself..."
Zhu Li: "You have to be yourself, can you wait for his brother to leave? You don't know. Before you came, he boasted to this group of people about how soft and pure you are. From the moment he jumped out from behind the board, he was slapped in the face every second!"
Xu Qiao's face turned green, and she suddenly raised her head to look at Cheng Lang.
It was the second round now. He shook the coloring child lightly, noticed her gaze, and smiled at her: "Do you understand? Didn't you understand what I taught you?"
Xu Qiao swallowed hard: "...I'll take a look for myself." Then she picked up the phone again.
New news from Zhu Li came in quickly: "What kind of extreme gentleman spirit is necessary to make him talk to you so under fire?"
Xu Qiao: "Hold... the fire?"
Zhu Li: "Look your head forty-five degrees, do you see the blue veins on his forehead? Look down sixty degrees, and see how far he sits from you?"
Xu Qiao glanced up and down, "Woo, woo, why did you tell me about such an important thing!"
Zhu Li: "You just rushed so fast, I am the electricity, I am the light, I am the only myth, I can't keep up!"
Xu Qiao: "Will I have time to be pure now?"
Zhu Li: "Please start your performance."
Xu Qiao put down the phone, took a deep breath, and slowly moved half of her body closer to Cheng Lang: "I...I still don't seem to understand..."
Cheng Lang stiffened slightly the moment she approached, just taking turns to call dice and blurted out "fourteen".
Jiang Fang at the next home cheered: "Open!"
Cheng Lang lost the first tonight.
Jiang Fang teased, "The beauty is wrong," and urged him to drink.
Cheng Lang took a glass of wine, then turned to ask Xu Qiao: "Come and try?" Seeing her face with an expression of "I don't know I'm afraid I'm so scared," she said, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you shout, I drink. "
She learned the appearance of those prosperous white lotus bitches, bit her lip reluctantly, and nodded.
In the next session, Xu Qiao fully demonstrated what it means "the stage is as big as the heart"—every round, almost every round, she is either innocently and innocently bidding upwards, or at the opponent. With the winning ticket in hand, he raised his hand and shouted "open" with an unstoppable group.
Cheng Lang took a cup after another, and Jiang Fang and Shen Dang began to calculate after drinking: Has the total amount of Lang reached?
Zhu Li couldn't help but send a message to Xu Qiao: "My mother-in-law, little princess, can you pretend to be pure and have a degree? If you are like this, people will think you want to deliberately get drunk, he!"
Xu Qiaozheng was immersed in the artistic appreciation of "a man's throat turns out to be the sexiest when drinking", and it took a while to see the news.
Just lost another round. Seeing Cheng Lang stretched out her hand for the wine glass, her eyelids twitched to stop him: "You drink too much, I will come, I will come next."
Cheng Lang said, "It's okay," he drank one step ahead of her, and said with a smile: "You play, I'm afraid you are drunk."
Zhu Li: "...Well, now Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone: you not only have to get drunk with him, but also with yourself."
Xu Qiao looked at Zhu Li wrongly.
Zhu Li: "I plan to run away? Don't say you want to go home at this time. If you want to go home, he won't be able to send you off. Then if I were his brother, I must think that you are suggesting that he is going to do something men and women love to do together. It's something."
Xu Qiao tapped the screen hard: "Did you wear cosmetic contact lenses today?"
Zhu Li: "?"
Xu Qiao: "Otherwise, how can I look at me with tinted glasses?"
But she was really not good about going home at this time, so she had to bite the bullet and continue to play, but she converged a lot, and began to carefully report the count, drooping her eyelids, sitting listlessly beside Cheng Lang.
After a while, Cheng Lang turned his head and asked her, "Are you sleepy?"
"Ah, no, I'm full of energy."
Cheng Lang glanced at the watch resting on the coffee table: "It's getting late, I'd better take you home."
"Oh..." Xu Qiao looked at Zhu Li with a look of innocence "this is not my fault", and stood up with Cheng Lang.
As soon as Cheng Lang shifted his sights to Zhu Li, before speaking, Jiang Fang and Shen Dang unanimously resolved his worries: "We will send Miss Zhu home."
"Then let's get lost first." He nodded to everyone, looked at Xu Qiao, "Let's go."
The two took the coats from the waiter and walked out of Muse side by side. Along the way, Xu Qiao glanced at Cheng Lang from time to time, wanting to ask him if he was upset tonight, and felt that this juncture was too wrong, so she closed her mouth tightly.
Xu Qiao believed that with this man's insight, it was impossible to stop her wanting to speak, but he had no intention to speak.
It seems that all of his gentle and considerate performances to her just now are all superficial articles written by others in order to take into account her face because of his clean and obsessive gentleman complex.
Zeppelin had stopped at the door, and Gao Rui waited by the car early and respectfully opened the back seat door for the two of them.
Cheng Lang gestured "please" to Xu Qiaoxian. When she was short, she held her palm slightly between her head and the edge of the car.
At this moment, an excited male voice rang not far behind the car: "Second brother!"
Xu Qiao, who had just stepped into the car, froze in a posture that looked unexpectedly scratching her head.
Cheng Lang turned his head and saw Cheng Ye walking in three steps and two steps: "Second brother, by such a coincidence, you just left the scene! It just so happened that my car was borrowed, you give me a ride!"
Hearing this sound, Xu Qiao hurriedly hid herself in the car, and gestured desperately to Gao Rui who was holding the car door, suggesting that he close the door soon.
Gao Rui glanced embarrassedly at Cheng Lang's hand still resting on Che Yuan, trying to remind him, but saw that he turned his head and was talking to Cheng Ye, so he couldn't interrupt.
Cheng Ye, who came closer, noticed the situation at a glance, and smiled: "Who is in the car, second sister-in-law?"
Xu Qiao turned her back vigorously.
Cheng Lang glanced at Cheng Ye: "Don't be mean."
"Say hello to my sister-in-law, why are you silly?" Cheng Ye smiled and bent over to look into the car, "Don't mind if I'm an electric light bulb, two..."
This sudden pause caused Xu Qiao to close her eyes in pain.
For the first time in her life, she discovered that too recognizable beauty may not be a good thing.
Xu Qiao's heart was gradually filled with a sense of despair when he went out and forgot to read the almanac.
Sure enough, Cheng Ye recognized her with her graceful silhouette like this: "Xu Qiao?"
The author has something to say: Sister Qiao: Dao Gu, save me again!
·Gu director: I'm sorry Alice, this time I am electricity, I am light, I am the only myth I can't save you!
