Chapter 88 eternal
“Chateau Hautbrion is here, Burgundy is there, Xiaoqu, I can help you with anything you want.”
At a private banquet, every step a woman in exaggerated attire took made people worry that she would trip over her skirt that dragged the floor, but she still stood firmly beside Qu Xizhi on her 13cm high-heeled shoes, and her makeup looked exquisite. noble.
“Thank you Mrs. Wu.” Qu Xizhi glanced at Gu Xizhi who was talking with people in the corridor from a distance, turned his head and smiled politely, “I don’t drink.”
It was one month before Qu Xizhi received Gu Xizhi’s alcohol prohibition order. On the same day, Qu Xizhi went home for a dinner party. Because he was worried about Qu Xizhi’s condition, Gu Xizhi issued a serious warning. A few days later, Qu Xizhi drank alcohol again and returned home. The two broke up after a quarrel, Qu Xizhi stayed in the living room that night, and spent the next few days arguing with each other to get Gu Xizhi’s good looks, and he has never touched a drop of alcohol since then.
The young woman tilted her head while holding the wine glass, smiled and said, “Xiao Qu, I’ll take you to see Mr. Wu, isn’t it good not to take the wine?”
Qu Xizhi also tilted his head, and said with a quick smile, “Okay, I’ll do it myself.”
Mr. Wu in Mrs. Wu’s mouth is actually a person in charge of Times Media. Although this No. 1 person is nearly 60 years old, he married a young girl who is just in her early twenties, that is, the Miss Lu in front of her.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of lively social occasion must be accompanied by wines that are highly accompaniment and elegant. Qu Xizhi thought about this situation before coming here, but he was still invited to attend together with Gu Xizhi.
The contract between Gu Xizhi and Times Media is still three years away, but because of ignoring the company’s plans, he had a very unpleasant fight with the company. A few months ago, Gu Xizhi was abandoned by the company and kept in cold storage. Although she herself didn’t care, Qu Xizhi I hope that the contract can be terminated for her peacefully.
There are many gentlemen and celebrities who decide other people’s lives at the party every minute. The stars with bright stars on weekdays become less dazzling. Two hours after the banquet started, many handsome men and women on the dance floor enthusiastically cheered for the DJ. The colorful lights on the dance floor shone on the white The black-based clothing material makes the solemn color a bit glamorous.
Qu Xizhi was holding a glass of wine and walked through the crowd towards Mr. Wu under the guidance of Lu Chuanlin. Because this Miss Lu was wearing a white floor-length diamond-studded dress, she would attract the attention of people around her wherever she went. Qu Xizhi, who was traveling with her in a simple black beaded dress, accepted the attention of everyone, and soon the young female guests at the banquet whispered to Gu Xizhi, who was talking about orchestral music with a foreign Chinese. inside.
“Mrs. Wu is really a queen, she doesn’t show timidity at all at such a young age.”
“The little girl who doesn’t know the heights of the world is like this. Boss Wu probably won’t be able to satisfy her if she dresses like this.”
“What little girl, can it be ordinary skills to be Mrs. Wu?”
…
Gu Xizhi didn’t pay attention to their words, but she saw the wine in Qu Xizhi’s hand.
“I met Shen Ya and his wife, Ms. Ni Si, in Sydney yesterday. If you are interested, I can introduce you next time.” The Chinese man said, looking up to see Gu Xizhi was a little distracted, and said, “Miss Gu? ”
Gu Xizhi suddenly came back to his senses, and immediately looked away from the goblet in Qu Xizhi’s hand, “I met Miss Ni Si once…”
…
After the third hour of the banquet, the number of guests had already decreased by half. After saying goodbye to Boss Wu, Qu Xizhi turned to look for Gu Xizhi, but she was nowhere to be seen during the entire dinner.
It was eleven o’clock in the evening when we got home. Qu Xizhi, who was ready to explain, was a little surprised that the door was not locked to her. When he opened the door, he saw that the light in the bedroom was just right and Gu Xizhi hadn’t locked the door. He walked into the bedroom with a sigh of relief. .
“Are you asleep?”
Gu Xizhi turned over and ignored her.
Qu Xizhi saw that she seemed to be awkward but not really angry, and said with a smile, “I’ll take a shower first, and come over later.”
The sound of water soon came from the bathroom, and Gu Xizhi, who was already in a bad mood, couldn’t sleep even more when he heard the sound of water, so he just sat up and watched TV.
When the TV was switched to the pet channel, Gu Xizhi suddenly thought of Qi Qi who had been taken away by Liang Ying and occupied for a month, and he felt even worse.
When the mobile phone notification sounded, Gu Xizhi casually touched the mobile phone beside the bed, picked it up and found that the interface of the mobile phone was different from his own, and then threw it back on the bed.
Pausing for about two seconds, Gu Xizhi frowned facing the TV, and quickly picked up Qu Xizhi’s phone again.
The message that popped up on the desktop clearly wrote Lu Chuanlin’s name, and the content was incomplete, only half a sentence: Thank you for giving me face to drink that glass of wine, have you gone home yet? I am very happy to choose green after listening to my opinion. Are you free tomorrow afternoon? i want you to go…
Gu Xizhi looked at the text message and thought for a moment, still frowning and hesitantly returning the phone to where it was just now.
Just as soon as he put it back, the voice of a short message rang again on the phone.
After several battles between heaven and man, Gu Xizhi couldn’t hold back his curiosity and picked up her cell phone again.
Still in the pop-up message, it is still Lu Chuanlin’s name, and the content of the message is as follows:
In fact, I like your “Silent Champs Elysees” the most. You have a bath scene in that movie. Your body is so beautiful. I went to study in Paris because of you…
The content of the text message came to an abrupt end. Gu Xizhi held the phone tightly in his hand, resisted the urge to read and put the phone back to its original place. When he looked at the TV again, his expression was no longer as restless as before, but because he was thinking very quietly.
A few minutes later, Qu Xizhi returned to the bedroom from the bathroom, and at the same time brought the handbag he had just brought back from the living room.
“First of all, tonight I just took a sip of wine while holding the cup to put on a show, and I know I was wrong, so I have already promised Liang Ying to bring Qiqi back to you tomorrow, and then I bought it for you.” new clothes.”
He took out the dog costume from his handbag, sat down beside the bed and put it in front of Gu Xizhi’s eyes, “Does it look good?”
Gu Xizhi, who was still deep in thought, glanced at the thing in her hand distractedly, but just as he was about to speak, those small words suddenly popped up in his mind.
“Have you gone home yet? I’m glad I chose green…”
While thinking about it, he carefully looked at the dog’s costume for a while, but after deciding that it was definitely green, Gu Xizhi’s face also turned green.
“It looks good.” Gu Xizhi smiled and twisted up the clothes in her hands, and threw them into the trash can beside her, then handed her the pillow, “But I don’t want to see you tonight.”
Qu Xizhi seemed to have not thought of this situation, and his expression was a little surprised.
Gu Xizhi had already turned off the TV and lay down to sleep.
The two quarreled for a long time, but Qu Xizhi didn’t hold back Gu Xizhi that night, and went to sleep on the sofa with his pillow in his arms. The next morning, Gu Xizhi was going to the neighboring city, and left before dawn, let alone Talking about greeting Qu Xizhi, Qu Xizhi called her when it was almost noon, but she didn’t answer, Qu Xizhi coaxed each other with nice words through short messages, during which time Gu Xizhi just ignored her However, Qu Xizhi is obviously not afraid of difficulties, and has been patiently currying favor with her.
When Gu Xizhi got in the car to go home in the evening, he received another message from her. When he opened it, he found that this time Qu Xizhi’s message was not coaxing her, but something serious:
In the evening, I have something to have dinner with Lu Chuanlin. When you come back, I will ask someone to pick you up.
Seeing the words Lu Chuanlin already felt uncomfortable all over. Hearing that she was going to have dinner with her, Gu Xizhi replied without thinking:
I’m not going back tonight.
The message was sent and there was an echo soon:
Tomorrow is our anniversary, how can you not come back.
Gu Xizhi, who was in a very unhappy mood, quickly replied:
I’m not going back anyway.
This time, Qu Xizhi didn’t reply for a long time, about half an hour later, Liang Youyou called her.
“Xiaojing, that’s too exaggerated. Do you know who I saw just now?” Liang Youyou’s slightly excited voice came over just after the phone was connected, and Gu Xizhi couldn’t help being curious, “Who?”
“You must not have guessed what she was wearing!” Liang Youyou didn’t say her name first, but said, “Wearing a feather cloak, it’s really feathers, she’s in the International Building.”
Gu Xizhi was even more confused, “Who are you talking about?”
“Oh, of course it’s Lu Chuanlin, your boss’s wife.” Liang Youyou paused before saying, “But do you know that she is with Qu Xizhi?”
“Forget it.” Gu Xizhi didn’t want to continue the topic when he heard her say this, “I’m getting off the car soon, I’ll call you later.”
“Goodbye, I’ll continue dating and watch your little song for you.” Liang Youyou hung up the phone.
When the hang-up sound came, Gu Xizhi looked at the phone, saw Qu Xizhi’s new short message and clicked on it:
I just took an extra sip of the wine, if you continue to be arrogant, I’m going to get angry, and if you get angry, you will hit people.
Gu Xizhi snorted, exited the short message interface, found Cindy’s number in the business card folder and dialed it, “Where are you?”
At 7:30 in the evening, the night shrouded the entire city. There are many commercial buildings in the city center. The solemn and solemn office buildings and entertainment and leisure places are strictly distinguished because of the different lighting styles. Looking at these high-rise buildings from a distance, the reinforced concrete The buildings are like mighty and domineering giant robots.
Downtown International Building.
This skyscraper, known as the tallest building, even gives people the illusion of “picking the stars and the moon” at night. The stained glass exterior wall gives people a strong sense of gorgeousness and solemnity no matter in the day or night. In the building, the high-rise building with simple and round lines is shaped like a sphere, giving people the feeling of a crystal ball. The colorful lights under the stars are refracted from every corner. The huge glass building is like the only way to the temple of heaven.
Walking into the top floor of the International Building, the colorful handbags in the hands of all kinds of fashionable young people dazzle the eyes of the elderly. In and out of the restaurant, the bright restaurant aisle spreads the scent of luxurious perfume on women and the aroma of food from various restaurants, and the voice of the most popular actress in the last century flows from the record player in the corner.
In a certain restaurant, the waiter put away the plate, and Lu Chuanlin, who was wearing a white feather cloak and curly hair, smiled and said to Qu Xizhi, “Are you satisfied with today’s dinner? My favorite appetizer is snails with cheese, how about you?”
Qu Xizhi glanced at the silent cell phone and said with a smile, “I like them all.”
Lu Chuanlin tilted his head to look at her, “It’s hard to imagine that you have such a good temper. Once you think of helping her terminate the contract, you won’t come to me again. I don’t even want to help.”
Qu Xizhi said, “You and I are friends, not interests.”
“Really?” Lu Chuanlin smiled thoughtfully, “That is to say, you still like being with me very much regardless of talking about her?”
“Based on Miss Lu’s status today, such a character is already very good.” Qu Xizhi smiled.
Lu Chuanlin still wanted to talk, but the whispers of some people in the restaurant made her and Qu Xizhi raise their heads to look at the entrance of the restaurant, but when they looked up, Qu Xizhi was attracted by the woman in the corridor.
She has seen too many beauties, and this is the first one she can stare at for more than three seconds.
She was wearing a bright gold embroidered dress with strong metallic texture. The expensive black mink fur on the shoulders and the dazzling diamond necklace around the neck made it easy to worry about her personal safety. When she walked into the restaurant, people passed her The sound of high heels under her feet found her shoes intimidatingly high, but she not only managed to do it well, but she was able to make herself look even more charming with beautiful, shaggy long curly hair.
The lights in the restaurant are changing, and every step she takes, the beads on her body and the diamonds around her neck seem to refract colorful lights, and the golden handbag in her hand, which is worth enough to buy this restaurant, exudes luxury in the light of the illusion. Charming traits are actually an exaggerated outfit, but because she can control the light-absorbing black with **** makeup and has a light and clean temperament, no one will think it is inappropriate.
She almost walked to the seats of Qu Xizhi and Lu Chuanlin under the attention ceremony, and then raised a very educated smile, “Ms. Lu, good evening, I am here to pick up Xiaoqu home, will I disturb you?”
Lu Chuanlin seemed very surprised. After watching her for a long time, he smiled again, “Of course not, but I ordered tea and the waiter hasn’t served yet. Ms. Gu, sit down and chat for a while?”
“Okay.” Gu Xizhi responded generously, looked sideways at Qu Xizhi and said, “I decided to come back to accompany you for the holidays, don’t you like it?”
Qu Xizhi was still looking at her who was completely different. He listened to her talking to him and thought for a while before he smiled softly, “Idiot.” He stood up and opened the chair for her to let her sit.
Here, Lu Chuanlin became inexplicable when he heard about the festival, and asked the two of them when he saw Gu Xizhi sitting at the table, “Tomorrow doesn’t seem to be a festival, did I remember the date wrong?”
“I’m just kidding, it’s the anniversary of my relationship with her.” Normally, Qu Xizhi is not a high-profile person, but he connected Gu Xizhi’s abnormal reaction in the past two days with his abnormal behavior that couldn’t be more abnormal tonight. After a while, Qu Xizhi fully understood what she was up to, so he had no choice but to hold back his smile and explain himself.
Lu Chuanlin seemed more surprised, but quickly nodded with a smile.
The waiter served tea at this time. Gu Xizhi took the tea and handed it to Qu Xizhi. Seeing that the waiter brought a piece of tea to him, he asked the waiter slightly curiously, “Excuse me for this tea…”
“Our boss sent it.” The waiter smiled and said, “You are the most beautiful lady tonight.”
Following the waiter’s signal, Gu Xizhi looked at the simple-dressed white American in front of the glass window, smiled and made a gesture of thanks to him.
Originally, I would like to chat for a while while drinking tea, but because Lu Chuanlin answered a phone call temporarily, she apologized after the tea was only served for ten minutes.
“I’m really sorry, I have something to do, so I might not accompany you.” Taking out the wallet from his handbag, he faced Qu Xizhi and Gu Xizhi, “This tea is not bad, you can sit down for a while, I’ll go directly to pay the bill.”
“Miss Lu has something to do, it doesn’t matter.” Gu Xizhi folded his hands on the table and raised his chin slightly to look at her, “I’ve settled the bill, because I really appreciate Miss Lu’s help, I hope you don’t blame me for being abrupt. .”
Lu Chuanlin really didn’t speak for a long time this time. After looking at her for a long time, he forced a smile and nodded, “Then I will invite you next time. I will say goodbye tonight.”
Qu Xizhi stood up out of etiquette, “I won’t send you off, thank you for the contract.”
Lu Chuanlin shrugged with a smile, “Small, goodbye.”
Qu Xizhi watched Lu Chuanlin walk out of the restaurant with graceful steps, and turned his head to look at Gu Xizhi until the flowing feathers really disappeared, “Hello.”
“Huh?” He was drinking tea.
Looking at her with interest, “So you are jealous?”
Putting down the tea, “No.” With a nonchalant tone, “Since you said that tomorrow is the anniversary, I’ll come back and find you.”
“Hmm…” I didn’t want to argue anymore, I just quietly looked at her beautiful side face under the light, “By the way, wrap yourself up as a gift for me?”
“What?” Gu Xizhi looked sideways at her alertly.
“You are really beautiful tonight.” Qu Xizhi smiled, “So…”
“Huh?” Still full of wariness.
“Let me go home and open the presents?”
The raindrops falling on the transparent glass hang countless diamond-like bead chains on the entire crystal building, and the rainy city is like a mysterious watercolor painting by a painter. After coming out of the restaurant, Gu Xizhi and Qu Xizhi went to a certain jewelry brand store on the first floor of the International Building, where there were very few customers. The clerk was very polite. Although they were pleasantly surprised when they saw them, they didn’t ask or talk nonsense, they just showed professionalism and enthusiasm. Introduce jewelry to the two of them.
Sitting in the back seat of the sports car, Lu Chuanlin looked at the luxuriously decorated jewelry store through the rain-soaked glass window, and took out his mobile phone to send a short message after a while.
A minute later, Gu Xizhi, who was trying on the diamond ring, received a short message. The number was completely unfamiliar, but the tone made Gu Xizhi know who it was:
In fact, I have nothing with her, you should trust her.
Gu Xizhi put the phone back in his handbag after just one glance, as if he was not going to reply to the message.
Looking up at Qu Xizhi, who was looking at the diamond, Gu Xizhi suddenly took out his mobile phone and quickly typed a small sentence:
I firmly believe in two things about love, one is that love does not distinguish between age, gender, height and nationality, and the other is that she loves me. Regarding you, Ms. Lu, I just want to tell you that she is soft-hearted and not good at refusing. This is her weakness, but I will try to help her refuse.
“Miss Gu, this is the blue diamond that was just mined in Ivory Coast in the news two months ago, can I help you try it?”
When the phone was put away, the clerk introduced the product to Gu Xizhi. Gu Xizhi raised his head and glanced at the diamond, which was eye-catching in terms of clarity, fire, color, and shape, and looked sideways at Qu Xizhi, “How about this diamond?” ?”
Qu Xizhi seemed quite satisfied, nodded and said, “You can try it.”
The clerk had already taken out the diamond ring for Gu Xizhi to try on. Gu Xizhi looked back and forth for a long time and thought it was good, so he took off the diamond ring and said to Qu Xizhi, “You want to try it too?”
Qu Xizhi looked at her with interest, “What do you mean?”
Gu Xizhi ignored her, and put the ring into her finger. Seeing that it worked well, he opened his handbag, took out a card and handed it to the clerk, “Please.”
The clerk politely took the card.
Gu Xizhi looked sideways at Qu Xizhi, with a smug and joyful expression, “This is to punish you, because if there is another Lu Chuanlin, next year I can only eat your food and drink your food.”
Qu Xizhi couldn’t help laughing, “It’s better for you to support me.”
It is still raining, and gentlemen in suits and leather shoes and elegant ladies with umbrellas and high heels pass by the rain-washed stone steps from time to time. Through an expensive glass window, the gray-white water falling from the sky like thick ink envelopes the world into a world. The background image is blurred in the photographer’s lens, and only the trails of lights leave beautiful silhouettes in front of vehicles, elevated and exquisite buildings.
The world is in your eyes and in your hands.
