Two days later.
Qiao Xi had already prepared Chinese medicine and prepared it for Huo Xingzhou.
She packed up and wore a floral skirt and a white coat. It looks more delicate and charming.
"Mr. Huo, I'm going out first." She said to the man who was watching TV in the living room.
Huo Xingzhou asked casually: "Going out so early?"
"I need to see grandma first." The doctor said that grandma's health had improved, and she was very happy.
"oh."
Huo Xingzhou saw her skirt swaying happily when she left. He picked up his phone and called Zhou Yu, "The secret meeting tonight will be held at the Shanhai Banquet."
…
Six o'clock in the evening.
The entrance of Shanhaiyan Hotel was full of cars. Dozens of people who looked like students gathered together, and the monitor majoring in traditional Chinese medicine counted them with a list.
"Isn't Qiao Xi here yet? I haven't seen her for four or five months from the winter vacation to the beginning of school. Do you think that rumor is true?" Several female classmates stood aside and whispered.
"I guess I haven't gotten off the bed of some financial sponsor." Someone in the school saw Qiao Xi getting into a luxury car and being with the old man.
"Ye Manman, you are her roommate, you should know something." They asked curiously, "Is Qiao Xi really being kept?"
The girl named Ye Manman, wearing exquisite makeup and carrying a brand-name bag worth more than 20,000 yuan, whispered: "Don't talk about Qiao Xi like that. She also has her own reasons for doing that kind of thing. Her family is poor, and her grandmother I'm sick again..."
"She is really with the old man, how disgusting! Manman, you are still speaking for her!"
"We, Manman, are Bai Fumei, kind-hearted and generous, which is different from Qiao Xi. I heard that you are still friends with the daughter of the Huo family..."
Ye Manman smiled unnaturally.
At this time, a blue Porsche sped over and stopped in front of them. Everyone cheered, "Chen Xu is here!"
A handsome young man got out of the car, wearing a white shirt. He put one hand in his pocket, hooked the car key with the other, and turned it around a few times.
"Chen Xu, your car costs one million, right?"
After hearing this, Chen Xu smiled and said, "I still have several cars at home."
"Wow, that's really rich."
"Chen Xu, we are waiting for you to come and open the box. If you haven't arrived, tell them the box number in the group." The squad leader reminded.
Chen Xu's uncle was the logistics manager of Shanhai Banquet. He jumped in the queue and got a large box. Many of them had never had the opportunity to enter such a large hotel in their lives, so they all took out their mobile phones to take pictures.
"Follow me." Chen Xu's vanity was greatly satisfied, "Tonight we have a table size of 18,000, you can eat and drink to your heart's content."
The crowd exclaimed and complimented him one after another.
Some people also whispered sarcastic words: "Qiao Xi is really cheap. I heard that Chen Xu is going to confess to her tonight."
The group of people followed the waiter's guidance and entered box 201. The luxurious and tasteful decoration inside dazzled them. Even the fruit plate was the richest.
"You guys eat first, I'll go find my uncle."
After speaking, Chen Xu winked at Ye Manman. The latter followed behind with his bag in hand.
In the dark corridor.
Chen Xu said with a cold face: "Are you sure Qiao Xi will come?"
Ye Manman leaned against the wall: "She said she would arrive soon. I made preparations in advance. Don't forget the 100,000 yuan you promised to give me."
Chen Xu snorted coldly: "Your benefits will be inevitable after everything is done. But... is it true that she was kept?"
"Whether it's true or not, you'll know after you sleep." Ye Manman said contemptuously, "Is this her first time, and you still can't feel it?"
Chen Xu laughed, saying that he was not at a loss either way.
"Now, she's here." Ye Manman raised his chin.
At the end of the corridor, a girl as bright as the moonlight walked over under the dim and soft light, making her look even more beautiful. Even the shadows are beautiful and lively.
Chen Xu's eyes flashed with obsession, and he greeted him diligently: "Qiao Xi."
Ye Manman put on a harmless face, took Qiao Xi's hand and said affectionately: "Everyone is here, we are waiting for you. If you don't come, Chen Xu won't open the table."
Qiao Xi turned around and asked, "Didn't you say we would meet at half past six?" She was not late either.
"We, Qiao Xi, are the most punctual people. Come in quickly." Chen Xu opened the box door in a gentlemanly manner, "I have reserved your seat."
Qiao Xi was arranged between Ye Manman and Chen Xu and sat down.
The people inside had different expressions when they saw her.
The timid ones whispered, and the bold ones spoke directly: "Qiao Xi, your clothes are this year's new spring style. They cost a lot of money. Who bought them for you?"
Qiao Xi's voice was soft and slow: "The elders in the family bought it." Du Juan later bought her a lot more.
The man sneered, what an elder, the old man who was the sponsor was considered an elder even at his age.
"Can your country grandma have money to give..."
"Don't worry about chatting. Let's serve the food first." Chen Xu glared warningly. Those who wanted to gossip could only give up. After all, they couldn't offend Chen Xu.
After the food is served.
They were too busy taking photos to post on WeChat and bragging to their friends that they had no time to pay attention to Qiao Xi.
Ye Manman poured a drink for Qiao Xi, "They are just jealous that you got the internship spot in the city hospital."
"Thank you." Qiao Xi said, holding the cup.
"Your grandma is sick. Do you need money? I still have savings in hand and can lend it to you first."
Ye Manman always pretends to be a good person in front of Qiao Xi. The relationship between the two of them seems to be pretty good.
"No, I can still handle it." She ate the food quietly and took another sip of the drink. Ye Manman poured her a drink while looking for a topic.
Qiao Xi didn't pay attention. The alcohol in the drink was very light, and there wasn't anything messy added. It tasted pretty good.
After just two drinks, her cheeks felt hot and her head felt dizzy. Qiao Xi shook her head and said to Ye Manman, "I'm going to the bathroom."
"Okay, the bathroom is next door." Ye Manman raised a winning smile on his lips. She knew that Qiao Xi had a keen sense of smell and was smart, so she would not use drugs.
Qiao Xi staggered out and her feet were so weak that she could only rest against the wall of the corridor. My phone buzzed in my sweater pocket.
When she saw the note "husband", she answered the question sluggishly: "Hello, husband?"
The voice was soft and soft, like a kitten that could be ravaged at will.
The man on the other end of the phone took a breath, and there was laughter around him.
"How was your party?" Huo Xingzhou asked calmly.
"I...I want to go home, I can't walk anymore." She rubbed her cheeks with her hands, her tongue curling up. His whole body felt light and airy, and his words were not as reserved as usual.
She knew she was drunk and just wanted to leave, saying she was lying about going to the bathroom.
"Qiao Xi, are you drunk?"
"That drink... is intoxicating." She struggled to stay awake.
"Wait, I'll pick you up."
Qiao Xi nodded like a chicken pecking rice, squatting in the corner holding her cell phone, pitiful and cute. Huo Xingzhou was about to hang up the phone when he heard a man's voice coming from the other side.
"Qiao Xi, why are you here?"
Chen Xu's enthusiastic voice came from behind. He pulled Qiao Xi's arm forcefully, "Go and have a rest. I have a room next door."
"No." Qiao Xi shook off his hand.
Chen Xu hugged her directly and said, "Be obedient. After tonight, you will be my woman. You will have whatever you want."
"Chen Xu! This is illegal!"
