Chapter 107
Through the gla.s.s, Su Chen Hao saw her reckless demeanor. His eyes dimmed a little as she turned around. He got on the Driver, started the car, and drove towards the hibiscus garden.
Halfway in the car, Huo Xi Wen suddenly called.
Because Su Chen Hao was driving, he used the car phone to connect the call.'s excited voice came out from the audio system and echoed throughout the entire carriage.
"Yes." Su Chen Hao replied.
"Then are you guys chatting? Did you have a good chat? "How's the atmosphere for dinner?" Huo Xi Wen's heart burned with the flames of gossip.
"…" Su Chen Hao felt that her question was a little straightforward. He turned around and saw Luo Qing Yun looking down at her finger with a thoughtful expression.
"What are you trying to say? I'm on my way back. " Su Chen Hao deliberately "reminded" him.
"Ah?" You haven't sent her home yet? "Alright then, I'll hang up first. I won't disturb you guys, you guys chat slowly." After Huo Xi Wen finished speaking, she immediately hung up the phone.
Luo Qing Yun could tell that something was wrong from Huo Xi Wen's last sentence, and why did her last sentence sound a little strange?
What do you mean don't bother them anymore?
What did that mean?
Did she know what had happened between them?
But that's not right, if Huo Xi Wen knew that she was together with Su Chen Hao before, she should be even more wary of her. Why did she let her eat alone with him, and even say that he would not disturb them?
"Xi Wen knew that you were my butler in the past, and thought that we would have a lot to talk about if we met again." It was unknown if it was because Su Chen Hao had noticed the doubt in his heart but with one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the stage, he looked straight ahead and spoke with a calm tone of voice.
So that's how it was!
Hearing this explanation, Luo Qing Yun heaved a sigh of relief.
She didn't want to be treated as a love rival by Huo Xi Wen.
Following that, there was a long period of silence. Even to the hibiscus garden, the two of them did not say a single word.
After returning home, He Fen saw the bandage on her hand and pulled her to have a good rest. Then, she wanted to take her to the hospital for a look at a doctor.
Until Luo Qing Yun repeatedly told her that it was only a small superficial wound and the wound was not deep, and had already been disinfected and treated. She also promised that if there was any discomfort, he would immediately report it to her.
At four-thirty in the afternoon, Luo Qing Yun woke up from her sleep in her bedroom and saw Su Qi Ze's carriage parked at the entrance of the building.
When he went downstairs, he saw his secretary, Miss Pan, walking in with several bags in her hands.
Seeing Luo Qing Yun, she immediately went forward and said, "Mrs. Su, nice to meet you. Suqian had me come over to inform you that at 7 o'clock tonight, I will accompany him to attend a company's 40th anniversary celebration party. These are the clothes and jewelry he chose for you, please try them first."
This was not the first time Luo Qing Yun had received such a gift. The pleasant surprise last time was one that Su Chen Hao had given to her.
However, he had prepared the dresses and jewels for her, and she had not once worn them. She had left them all at the villa.
Now that she thought about it, this really wasn't something that belonged to her. She didn't even need to test it.
"There are so many things, can I trouble you to help me send them upstairs?" Luo Qing Yun looked at the five to six bags in her hands and quickly went to help her carry them.
Hearing that, Luo Qing
The dress Su Qi Ze had chosen for her was a dark green, exposed shoulder dress with a tall waist. It accentuated her originally exquisite body, making his tall and slender, the part of his skirt that was formed from countless layers of muslin into an extremely fluffy feeling, elegant yet layered. The bottom of the dress dragged on the ground, making her look like a fairy that had walked out of a pristine forest, fresh and refined.
The green gems that the jewels chose were crystal clear without any impurities. Coupled with the perfect cutting work, they emitted a cold and dazzling brilliance under the light.
"Truly beautiful." Secretary Pan looked at Luo Qing Yun who was in front of the mirror and praised sincerely.
Luo Qing Yun also raised her head and looked at her reflection in the mirror. Although her pure face didn't have any makeup on, she was already as beautiful as a dazzling pearl.
"If Suqian sees it, he probably can't move his eyes away." Secretary Pan helped her to adjust her hair that was draped over her shoulders. She also felt that the spread of her hair was not enough to completely highlight her temperament, so she agilely put on a Princess He Ben's head, and an exquisite hairpin.
"Alright, just put on some makeup and you can go out." Secretary Pan said.
Probably because Secretary Pan was a person who pursued perfection, she could take care of Luo Qing Yun's entire appearance. In order to pursue perfection, she had to put on four or five makeup.
Just like this, a few hours pa.s.sed and Luo Qing Yun finally finished her entire appearance before Su Qi Ze returned home to pick her up.
Looking at the dazzling image of herself in the mirror, she smiled and looked at Secretary Pan, "I really didn't think that your hands were such a coincidence."
Hearing that, Secretary Pan leaned her head close to Luo Qing Yun's face and whispered: "You might not believe it if I told you. Back then, Suqian recruited me into the company because he thought that I was good at it."
"Huh?" Luo Qing Yun had a face full of disbelief.
Secretary Pan laughed out loud, "Madam, I was just joking with you. Actually, my taste wasn't very good before, but after being by Suqian's side for a long time, I have come into contact with different levels, and thus, I can continuously improve myself. You know, us girls all love to dress up, adding on to the fact that the people surrounding Suqian are often the daughters and wives of different upper cla.s.s societies, if I don't beat myself up and go out with him, wouldn't I be disgracing him? "
"So that's how it is. It seems that your profession isn't easy either." Luo Qing Yun said with a thoughtful expression.
Luo Qing Yun never thought that she would speak in such a straightforward manner.
In fact, what girl in the world wouldn't want to find a handsome man who was good to her?
However, this kind of man was too rare. Only a few people would be able to find him.
The two of them chatted for a while longer, until Sister-in-Law went up to tell them that Su Qi Ze had returned home. Only then did Secretary Pan help Luo Qing Yun up her skirt, and the two of them went downstairs.
Su Qi Ze stood at the top of the stairs, and the moment he saw Luo Qing Yun walk in, a hint of surprise flashed past his originally calm eyes, and then, he could no longer s.h.i.+ft his gaze away.
At this time, Su Qi Ze's thoughts were completely immersed in Luo Qing Yun's beauty, he was simply unable to hear the Secretary Pan's voice.
Seeing that he had ignored her, the Secretary Pan turned to look at Luo Qing Yun, ridiculing him, "Madam, am I right? I already said that when Suqian sees you, he would definitely be unable to s.h.i.+ft his gaze away. "
"Thank you." Luo Qing Yun's face was a little hot from his gaze, she only lowered her eyes and said softly.
It was originally a normal reaction, but because it was her, Su Qi Ze's heart was once again hooked by her frown and smile, and he became a little absent-minded.
"Suqian, it's almost time. You and Madam can set off." Secretary Pan looked at the time on the wrist watch and reminded them.
At the Royal Hotel.
In the banquet hall of the seventh floor, there was a large poster advertising the 40th anniversary of the Starlight Corporation at the entrance.
It was now seven in the evening. The venue was brightly lit, and the place was bustling with noise and excitement.
Just as the two of them signed their names, Luo Qing Yun saw that in the middle of the banquet hall, Huo Xi Wen was holding Su Chen Hao's arm.
Su Qi Ze noticed the change in her expression and thought that she was feeling uncomfortable. He hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Are you not feeling well? "
"Qi Ze, why is he here too?" Luo Qing Yun's gaze was fixated in front of him, and her voice seemed to be floating as she asked.
"What about us?" Luo Qing Yun wanted to know whether the position she occupied with Su Qi Ze was important or not. If they were only insignificant guests, she hoped that they would leave immediately.
"Us? Of course, they were also honored guests. My company has a large business relations.h.i.+p with Starlight Corporation. " Su Qi Ze said, afraid that she wouldn't understand, and then said, "Tonight, the people you can see here are all the hottest people in Y City. I know you don't like this kind of occasion, but I'll have to trouble you to help me get entertained today."
His words were tactful, but Luo Qing Yun understood that it was impossible for her to leave early.
After all, without him, she would probably still be worried about the child in her womb becoming an illegitimate child without a father.
