"I don't want to go to the ball. Charity balls and stuff like that are too boring."
Pan Xiaoqing was dejected, but her appetite increased.
Not only did I finish the ice cream bowl in a few seconds, I also asked the waiter for another grilled beef tongue.
"Aren't you afraid of getting fat after eating so much?"
Chu Sisi asked with a smile.
"Stop talking about me. It's not you who caused the harm. I won't feel comfortable if I don't eat more of your money."
"You will get fat if you eat like this."
"I don't know if I will get fat? It's better if I'm a little fatter. If I'm a little fatter, I won't be able to wear a dress or attend the dance."
"It's impossible. In a family like yours, it's normal to be involuntarily. We all live a willful life."
"So, Miss Chu has obeyed her mother's wishes and is ready to be a princess again and go to the ball to be a puppet?"
"In life, you have to pay something in order to get something."
Chu Sisi said this sentence naturally. This sentence was originally said by Mu Chun. What kind of tone would Mu Chun use when he said this sentence?
Chu Sisi didn't know, because she had only seen this sentence in the email sent to her by Mu Chun. She liked it very much and read it many times, so now, this sentence naturally came out of her mouth, not at all. It's not as embarrassing as reciting a famous quote.
Since her mother has given the order, in the end she must always obey her mother's orders, dress beautifully and dignifiedly, and attend with the dance partner carefully selected by her mother.
She pretended to be used to this kind of situation, but deep down she wanted to run away every second.
The venue is always filled with the fragrance of flowers. If the fragrance is too strong, you can't smell any plant itself at all, only the artificial smell.
Makes you dizzy.
My mother was always good at such occasions. She put on a close-fitting dress with her already slender figure, and her aura was fully activated, suppressing the entire audience.
Zhang Mei is born with the aura of a queen, which is one of the reasons why Chen Weiwei and Chu Xiaofeng are crazy about her. Another reason is naturally that Zhang Mei is proficient in judicial business and can make a lot of money for Chen Weiwei's company.
This charity ball is also a ball organized by a charity foundation organized by the two of them.
Pan Xiaoqing's mother is also one of the directors of the charity foundation, so she naturally regards attending such events as her own duty and takes it very seriously.
"Are you so cynical? I really don't see it. Didn't Miss Chu not hesitate to sever the relationship with her mother in order to become a doctor? How could she become a good girl in the blink of an eye when such a threat to her mother is still in front of her? Zhang Mei You just do whatever the lady says? No wonder my mother said on the phone that you had promised to attend the ball a long time ago. You have already chosen the dress, and it was designed by an Italian designer. Oh my God, Chu Sisi, you are now You are a lot more tactful as a person."
Pan Xiaoqing's words were thorny, and she was indeed angry in her heart.
The phone call from her mother made her uneasy and disrupted all her plans.
"Are you really going to Istanbul?" Chu Sisi asked.
"I really want to go. I'm even considering a long-term visa for Turkey. I feel uncomfortable."
"Where do you feel uncomfortable? When I go back and inherit the garment factory, everything feels comfortable."
"No, this is not the life I want, absolutely not."
Chu Sisi didn't want to see her friend feel so uncomfortable. The two of them were connected by the same fate. They didn't talk about everything in high school, but now they are like heroes who cherish heroes.
Pan Xiaoqing had a sad face, but her appetite was surprisingly good. A plate of beef tongue was brought to her and she ate it all in one go.
Chu Sisi thought about it and couldn't remember when she had seen Pan Xiaoqing eat so well.
In my impression, except when Pan Xiaoqing is rude when eating sea urchin, he chews his food carefully and slowly at other times. A mouthful of sushi can be chewed hundreds of times in his mouth.
"Why are you eating so fast? You haven't chewed the food yet. It won't be digested."
Pan Xiaoqing curled her lips. She had small facial features and a petite face. She was also very enterprising. She always looked energetic, giving people the feeling that she had endless energy.
Pan Xiaoqing's biggest weakness is her mother. In her own words, everything at home is my Pan Xiaoqing's weakness.
Different from Chu Sisi, Pan Xiaoqing has been very good since she was born. Her parents and grandparents love her very much. She is also diligent and studious. Not only is she excellent in academics, she also insists on various sports for a long time. She is also talented in singing. She started singing at the age of 12. He has participated in vocal competitions all over the world and won many gold medals.
However, this girl from a wealthy family has no interest in becoming a singer or inheriting the family business. She just likes to be a freelance interviewer and travel around the world.
Although he is independent and self-reliant, he inevitably has to use family connections to interview some people who are difficult to interview.
For example, she casually thought of some Istanbul writer.
Fortunately, Chu Sisi was quick in thinking and got the key points in no time.
It is not easy to interview this kind of writer. As a freelance interviewer, if you want to interview a Nobel Prize winner for literature from a country other than your own country, you cannot do it on a whim.
If Pan Xiaoqing didn't use some family connections, it would be an almost impossible task.
"I still like that book by Orhan Pamuk."
Chu Sisi changed the subject.
Pan Xiaoqing changed the subject again, "I really don't have the ability to inherit the things at home, but I always feel guilty in my heart."
Perhaps it was Chu Sisi's illusion, a tear slipped from Pan Xiaoqing's eyelids, and she didn't know where it landed.
"I still like that book very much, Strange Things in My Mind, the novel by Orhan Pamuk."
"It doesn't happen to be a novel that your teacher has read, so you remember it so clearly."
"No, I read this book by myself and it has nothing to do with the teacher. I particularly like its title. Do you think we all have something weird in our minds?"
Pan Xiaoqing burst into laughter. It was not a pretty smile. Maybe because he was sad just now, he always felt that the smile at the corner of his mouth was a little weird.
"Although you aspire to become a psychosomatic doctor, you must also be aware of the reality. Sisi, our society does not have a deep understanding of psychosomatic diseases. Most people do not understand what a psychosomatic doctor is. Treat diseases, take medicines and injections, exercise more and maintain good health. Even traditional Chinese medicine, which the West has always questioned, is broad and profound and has its own mysteries. We are willing to accept it and feel its benefits personally.
But the Department of Psychosomatics is different. Although Professor Chu has single-handedly established a special major in Psychosomatics in the university, how many students choose this major every year? "
