Xu Ci sat in a coffee shop near the venue and waited for news about Gao Hengzhou.
He made an appointment to meet her at a bar near the venue at seven o'clock in the evening. It happened that Fei Liena and several other Danas were also relaxing there. Xu Ci didn't think about it and happily went to the appointment.
It gets dark early in Milan this season. At 6:30, the street lights are all on. Xu Ci walks into the bar following his shadow. The message she wanted didn't pop up on her phone all afternoon, so she simply didn't wait any longer.
Anyway, I will see it tonight.
She waited in the bar for a while, and Gao Hengzhou and his party arrived. Fei Liena was surrounded in the middle and caught everyone's attention.
Xu Ci went up to say hello. Fei Liena looked her up and down, arched her eyebrows and smiled, "I heard Gao Hengzhou said that you are a good designer."
In such an occasion, Xu Ci didn't want to appear too utilitarian and self-defeating, so he agreed and said they knew each other.
Fei Liena was very satisfied with her performance. She lowered her head and gave Gao Hengzhou a few words, and then followed the other two leaders to the other side. At this moment, Xu Ci recognized the other several people, several well-known senior executives in the fashion industry. According to rumors,
I have a close relationship with Ferena.
Can't afford to offend either.
"Why did you hang out with Fei Liena?" Xu Ci asked as he ordered a mojito.
Gao Hengzhou took a sip of his wine and said, "It's not like there's no place to go, and it's not as prominent as your family. Ordinary people like us can just hug each other first."
In college, everyone would always get together to discuss the future, but Xu Ci never participated in their discussions. Her life was originally a planned track, and it was difficult to derail it.
"What about you?" Gao Hengzhou was curious about her life, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
He went abroad after graduation and didn't pay much attention to domestic affairs. Xu Ci guessed that he didn't know about He Chen's affairs.
She didn't plan to say that Gao Hengzhou cared about her before she graduated. This would definitely be a topic that wouldn't end for a long time, and she was afraid of trouble.
Xu Ci and Gao Hengzhou went back and forth for a while. Xu Ci felt bored and made an excuse to go to the bathroom. Then he saw Fu Yunshen and the blonde woman pushing the door open and entering.
The two people looked at each other, and Xu Ci sat back in his seat.
Gao Hengzhou also saw Fu Yunshen and was surprised by Xu Ci's behavior.
"know him?"
Xu Ci copied Fu Yunshen's words, "I'm not familiar with it."
The distance between them was not far, and the bar was not noisy. Xu Ci was sure that Fu Yunshen could hear them.
But at this moment, Fu Yunshen led the blond woman to the front desk, and Xu Ci heard him order a cup of Long Island iced tea.
He turned sideways and sipped the wine without saying a word.
Xu Ci turned his attention to Gao Hengzhou again and chatted absentmindedly for a few words before his cell phone rang.
"Bathroom." It belongs to Fu Yunshen.
Xu Ci looked up and saw that Fu Yunshen was no longer at the front desk, leaving only the blond woman chatting with the bartender.
Xu Ci went to the bathroom and saw no one. Just as he was about to take out his cell phone to find someone, the overwhelming smell of alcohol fell on him.
The Long Island iced tea he ordered was not tea, but liquor.
"you……"
Before she finished speaking, Fu Yunshen pinched her chin, and Xu Ci was forced to raise her head to look at him, falling into his confused gaze.
She could clearly feel that he was in a bad mood.
"Xu Ci," he rubbed her chin, "has no one ever taught you how to be a qualified canary? Hmm?"
Xu Ci didn't understand what he meant and looked at him without speaking.
"Ignore me, block me, pretend not to know me, Xu Ci, you are really brave."
