Chapter 350
I sat in a daze in my car for a long time before I regained my composure and got out of the car. However, only I knew how calm I pretended to be on the outside, how turbulent the undercurrent in my heart was.
——
A burst of warm applause announced the end of Mo Xun's speech, and the dinner officially began.
Mo Xun and Mo Kai have always been the focus of the circle, and they were quickly surrounded by everyone. The two female companions, Qiao An and Bai Muxue, naturally performed their duties and accompanied them among all kinds of people.
But Mo Xun and Mo Kai seemed to be looking towards the entrance frequently, as if they were waiting for someone.
Finally, the door to the hall was opened, and the two of them turned sideways at the same time, and Qiao An followed his gaze and looked over.
Mo Ran came towards us with a man in his fifties.
He is a handsome and suave man. Even in his destined age, his temperament is still outstanding. His body is majestic and calm tempered by time, and every wrinkle on his face adds to his charm.
Qiao An had heard Mo Xun mention it before that a heavyweight mysterious guest would be coming today. Only now did Qiao An realize that the person Mo Xun and Mo Kai were looking forward to was probably this one.
Sure enough, the two men next to him rushed forward together.
Qiao An followed her silently, and as they were chatting, she learned that the person in front of her was actually Qiao Zhen, whom she had often heard about when she was a child.
I remember that many things in my home at that time were printed with the Zhenhua Group’s trademark, which can be described as a memory of the times.
I didn't expect to be able to meet the founder face to face. This feeling is really amazing.
"This is Xiaoxue?" Qiao Zhen looked at Bai Muxue who was following behind Mo Kai, and suddenly his face showed joy.
Bai Muxue stepped forward and said, "Uncle Qiao."
"I remember that you were just a little tall at that time. If it weren't for the mole next to your eye and the fact that you and your dad look almost the same, I'm afraid I wouldn't have recognized you. Your dad is in good health recently.
Bar."
"Thank you for your concern, Uncle Qiao. He is fine."
Mo Ran and the others were surprised to find out that the Bai family and Qiao Zhen actually had a personal relationship.
"Who is this?" Qiao Zhen saw Qiao An who had been staying behind them, and asked without any favoritism.
The moment he saw Qiao An clearly, the smile on his lips seemed to freeze for a moment.
"Director Qiao, this is my assistant, Qiao An." Mo Xun introduced him.
Qiao Zhen's deep dark eyes flashed with disbelief, his gaze fixed on Qiao An, and his voice seemed to tremble slightly as he confirmed, "Qiao An?"
Qiao An took half a step forward and responded generously and appropriately, "Yes, Director Qiao, my name is Qiao An. I am Mr. Mo's assistant. I have long admired your name."
Qiao Zhen didn't move for a long time after hearing the words. After a long time, he realized his gaffe, and the corner of his mouth curled slightly, "I'm sorry, Miss Qiao reminds me of an old friend... We are destined to be from the same family."
Qiao An only regarded this as a polite word of friendship and responded with a smile.
The romantic waltz played in the banquet hall at the right time. As the first dance of the ball, it was naturally the most anticipated moment.
Qiao Zhen can be regarded as the oldest person present today, and everyone knows that he loves waltz, so everyone couldn't help but shout "Qiao Dong."
Qiao Zhen had a warm smile on his lips and refused, "I'm already your age and I'm no longer your young man!"
How can everyone be so easy to fool, they still shouted in unison, Mo Xun and Mo Kai also had smiles of reverence and expectation in their eyes.
Amidst the shouts, Qiao Zhen shook his head helplessly, "Here you are!"
Seemingly giving in, he turned around to look for a dance partner.
Qiao An was suddenly startled because Qiao Zhen came to her and extended his hand to her in a gentlemanly manner.
"Miss Qiao, can I invite you to dance?"
Qiao An was stunned for two seconds, and then he generously took the hand in front of him, "It's an honor."
Waltz is a social etiquette, there is nothing to be fussy about. Joan walked side by side to the dance floor with him.
Mo Ran looked at the backs of the two people and felt that the scene was inexplicably warm and harmonious, but he could not hide his doubts. He couldn't help but ask Bai Muxue next to him, "Xiaoxue, how come you and Mr. Qiao Zhen know each other and I haven't heard of you mentioning it?"
"My father and Uncle Qiao were partners early on. Later, Uncle Qiao moved away from Cannes and gradually lost contact with us."
"Oh? Based on the degree of familiarity, shouldn't I be more familiar with you? Why did Mr. Qiao remember the first dance with Qiao An?"
Bai Muxue pondered for a moment and then opened her lips, "Uncle Qiao had two daughters, one of whom was named Qiao An. Unfortunately, she died when she was very young. Uncle Qiao's wife has always been worried about this matter.
There's something wrong with my mind..."
Bai Muxue's voice was not loud, but just enough for the two men beside her to hear clearly.
