In the ward late at night.
The mobile phone on the bedside table lit up for a moment, then went out again.
The man reached out and picked it up and took a look.
"The fish has taken the bait" five words were written in the text message.
Then click delete.
The person lying on the bed looked at the ceiling with his hands folded, the smile on his lips never falling.
...........
"Whose invitation is it?"
"The Shen family said it was some internal family banquet. They didn't invite too many people. It was mainly to celebrate Shen Zhoudu's promotion. Furthermore, the Shen family seems to be interested in giving Shen Zhoudu a blind date."
Huanong was sitting on the sofa in the living room, scrolling boredly with his tablet, listening to Yang Xian's conversation with his secretary.
"Shen Zhoudu is now a popular man in the capital. It is said that he has made great achievements in quelling the chaos. In addition, he is young and promising, and he is clean and self-sufficient. As long as he does not make any political mistakes in the future, his future will be bright. Whether it is the capital or Beijing and Hong Kong, there are many people watching him. I got this piece of cake, but the old man of the Shen family explicitly prohibited Mr. Shen from finding the daughter of a high-ranking official in the capital, so he arranged this family banquet. He said it was a family dinner because he wanted to find a partner for Mr. Shen. "
Mr. Shen also retired from the capital back then. He had experienced power struggles and melees among wealthy families. Therefore, he strictly controlled the younger generations of the Shen family and did not allow them to participate in the struggles of those aristocratic families, lest they sacrifice themselves to marry others. Yi, besides, Shen Zhoudu is indeed capable and can sit in a high position without anyone's guidance.
There is no need to betray any so-called noble daughter from aristocratic families.
Yang Xian listened and probably understood what it meant. She looked at the invitation in her hand and nodded: "Who hosted it?"
"It is said to be Shen Zhimin."
Yang Xian opened the invitation and looked at it. It was hosted by Shen Zhimin. Even if she was invited, Huanong was also invited?
I'm afraid there is no deep meaning.
"Why are you looking at me?" Huanong was made a little uncomfortable by Yang Xian's sizing eyes.
"Have you had any contact with Shen Zhoudu recently?"
"Does ruthless likes in the circle of friends count?" Huanong asked uncertainly.
Yang Xian rolled her eyes: "Since the Shen family is hosting this family banquet to find a partner for Shen Zhoudu, what does it mean that your name is on the invitation?"
"How do I know this? Why don't you ask others? They can't be interested in me, a married woman who almost fell into trouble, right?"
As soon as Huanong said this, the secretary beside him couldn't help laughing. Huanong had such a mouth that he could say anything.
"As long as you know, come with me tomorrow."
"Is it okay if I don't go? Why should I go on a blind date? When the green leaves set off the unmarried red flowers?"
"When someone invites you, you have to go."
Yang Xian lazily talked to Huanong and ended the topic forcefully.
Huanong held his tongue, and even though he was not happy, he had no other reaction.
The next day.
The Shen family's family banquet was held at a manor hotel in Dongcheng District. It was supposed to be unbearably hot in the hot summer, but there was a heavy rain yesterday. In addition, the manor had many green plants and was close to the mountains, so the temperature was actually cool.
Such good weather is not common in Beijing and Hong Kong.
Entering along the road, there are still small drops of water hanging on the leaves in the yard, dripping down.
Delicate and endearing.
"Isn't that Yan Kailai's family?"
"Well, Yan Song is also invited by the Shen family."
"The Yan family is bankrupt, can Mr. Shen be interested in it?"
Yang Xian glanced at Huanong: "Not everyone only looks at the surface. Every wealthy lady present was personally invited by the Shen family. Since Yan Song can be invited, it proves that the Shen family is also interested. Don't look down on others if you know her abilities."
"Oh!" Huanong responded sarcastically.
After a long time, when he learned that Yan Song liked Lu Jing'an, his inner contempt instantly reached its peak.
"Princess Hua?"
When Huanong entered the room, a surprised whisper rang out. Huanong looked back and saw Shen Shang looking at him in astonishment.
She smiled lightly: "Master Shen is surprised to see me?"
"A little bit, how have you been lately?" After all, last night, the Shen family gathered around him on the sofa in the living room and gave him some advice. They told him to stay away from Huanong, a married woman, regardless of his character. , just the fact that she is married has made the Shen family talk about it for several hours. It is really surprising to see people at the banquet today.
"Not bad, Mr. Shen is busy first, let's go in first."
Huanong's attitude was distant, and he had no intention of clinging to him. After all, Mother Shen's eyes next to him were too wary.
She is not blind, she can naturally see.
"Stay away from other young talents," Yang Xian lowered her voice to remind Huanong. Huanong held his tongue and rolled his eyes helplessly: "I even said I wouldn't come."
"With this attitude, if you don't come, the Shen family might think you have a guilty conscience! My girl, I can't help but be looked down upon."
If you want to look down on him, it should be Huanong who looks down on Shen Zhoudu, not the Shen family's secret temptation.
Huanong found a comfortable position and sat down, his eyes following Yang Xian as she socialized in the venue.
Holding the wine glass, he dragged his chin and looked at the boring scene in the banquet hall.
Suddenly, the long-haired civet cat came out of nowhere and squatted in front of Huanong, blinking at her.
It looks really nice, and it looks like it was domesticated.
"Why are you looking at me? I don't have cat strips for you to eat."
Meow----
Huanong clicked his tongue: "I can't understand even meow meow in human language."
"Wouldn't you think it would be scary if it spoke human language?"
A sudden voice sounded above his head, and Huanong's mind buzzed.
The "Young Talent" stood in front of him, wearing a high-end custom-made suit that wrapped his strong physique upright and straight, like a strong pine tree on a high mountain that was not damaged by wind and rain.
have to!
If she didn't come over, others would come over.
When Huanong raised his eyes and glanced over, all the eyes of the Shen family, old and young, were on her.
She had a headache. If this were the case in ancient times, someone would definitely say that she was a married woman who seduced young talents and broke the law. She might even be imprisoned in a pig cage.
"To be honest, in this situation, a cat speaking to a human is not as scary as you standing in front of me."
"Am I scary?" Shen Zhoudu was a little confused.
Huanong twitched the corners of his lips and arched his eyebrows. The already stunning-looking person now seemed to have a sense of elegance and beauty.
"Do you want to look back?"
Shen Zhoudu followed Huanong's gaze and looked back, and saw the Shen family members staring at each other like wolves and tigers. When their eyes met his, there was a hint of warning.
Huanong was so cowardly that he picked up the civet cat and nestled it in the corner, wishing he could become invisible.
From a distance, Shen Zhimin received his mother's gaze and walked towards this direction. Huanong was inexplicably relieved when he saw someone coming.
"Sister Zhimin."
"Nonnong, let's go get something to eat together?"
Huanong thought to himself, it’s not like you’re inviting me to eat like this, that’s what he thought, but he still had to give in to save face.
She smiled lightly: "No need, I'm not hungry. Sister Zhimin can just take Mr. Shen away. He's standing here, and I'm quite stressed."
They say that you can live a good life only if you see through things without telling them.
Huanong's words undoubtedly tore through the window paper and clearly told Shen Zhimin that she knew Shen Zhoudu's thoughts and the Shen family's thoughts.
