After hearing Chen Mengqi's cold words of rejection, the people in the box not only turned pale with shame and embarrassment in Xia Haoyu's face for a moment, but even Chen Mengqi's classmates and friends felt that her words were a bit unreasonable and went too far. ,Therefore, many people also have expressions of embarrassment and disapproval on their faces.
Of course, as Chen Mengqi's classmates and friends, they all know that she has always had such a personality: straightforward and casual, with a clear distinction between love and hate. For the people she likes, she will give everything for them; and for those she doesn't like or dislike, She would never make excuses for the people she hated.
Therefore, after a moment of embarrassment, her classmates and friends were relieved.
Several older classmates gathered around and pulled up Xia Haoyu, who was still half-kneeling on the ground like a wooden man. One of the female classmates smiled and comforted him and said: "Mr. Xia, don't mind, Qiqi, she has always been like this. She is a straight-tempered person who never turns around the bush when talking to people. It turns out that when we were studying together, some classmates were often choked by her and couldn't get off the stage. However, if she were nice to others, she would be amazingly nice. How beautiful are you today? I believe that everything Qi has done will be seen in her eyes and remembered in her heart. However, she still has knots in her heart and has not turned around yet. She is not mentally prepared to accept you, so please Mr. Xia, give Qiqi some time to slowly think about it and slowly accept you. We classmates and friends will bless you and cheer you on,"
Xia Haoyu felt a little better after hearing the comforting words from Chen Mengqi, a female classmate. He forced a smile on his face and laughed at himself: "It doesn't matter. I came to propose to Qiqi this time, and I was prepared to be rejected by her." I was mentally prepared. Moreover, this is not the first time that I have been rejected by Qiqi. This is not a shameful thing, right? As for what you said about Qiqi’s frank personality, I don’t think this is her problem. , On the contrary, in my opinion, this is her greatest advantage and strength, and it is also the charm of her personality that attracts me the most. Dear classmates and friends, please rest assured that I, Xia Haoyu, am not a person who gives up easily. ,Although Qiqi rejected me again tonight, I will still continue to work hard and treat Qiqi twice as well. I believe that with everyone’s blessing and encouragement, Qiqi and I will one day form a happy marriage. of marriage,"
As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Mengqi's classmates and friends all applauded enthusiastically.
Chen Mengqi was not moved at all, she lowered her head and remained silent, not knowing what she was thinking.
At this moment, Manager Jiang suddenly walked into the box holding a bouquet of roses with a smile on his face, walked straight to Chen Mengqi's seat, handed the flowers in his hand to her, and whispered: "Mr. Chen, this is Mr. Ye asked me to give you the flowers. He is in the lobby now and wants me to ask if it is inconvenient for him to come up to your banquet."
Chen Mengqi didn't react for a moment, and looked at the ribbon on the flower with confusion, and saw clearly written on it: "Happy birthday to sister Qiqi," and the signatures below were the two signatures that fascinated her. The italicized character: Ye Ming.
At this moment, she felt that the blood all over her body was rushing to her face, and she almost fainted with excitement...
After staring at the blessings and the final signature on the ribbon several times, she suddenly jumped up from her chair, grabbed Manager Jiang's shoulders with both hands, her eyes filled with tears, and with a trembling voice The voice asked: "Mr. Jiang, what did you just say? Is Brother Ye right in the lobby?"
Manager Jiang's shoulder was sore from being dug by her nails, but he did not dare to show the expression of pain. He nodded repeatedly with a wry smile and said, "Mr. Ye is in the lobby. If Mr. Chen doesn't mind him coming to attend your meeting, For the banquet, I immediately went down to invite him up,"
After Chen Mengqi was convinced that Ye Ming was in the hotel lobby, she suddenly pushed Manager Jiang away, turned around and ran out of the private room.
When she rushed to the elevator entrance, Chen Mengqi saw that the floor signal above the elevator showed that it was still on the first floor, so she angrily slapped the elevator button, then suddenly turned around and ran towards the nearby "safety exit", opened the spring door, and Run directly to the first floor from the stairs of the emergency passage.
At this time, Ye Ming was standing at the door of the lobby, holding the rosewood box containing the jade pendant in his left hand and his mobile phone in his right hand, wondering whether he should call Chen Mengqi.
At this moment, from the bend leading to the elevator entrance, a pretty figure wearing a goose-yellow coat suddenly rushed out, and then rushed directly to the door. Half a meter away, this figure appeared He opened his arms and threw himself into his arms, hugged his neck tightly, and cried "woo woo" with great grievance.
Ye Ming had already recognized this figure as Chen Mengqi when she rushed out of the corner. At this moment, seeing her throw herself into his arms without any scruples in front of so many subordinates in the hotel, and burst into tears. , I felt a little embarrassed and a little sad, so I gently patted Chen Mengqi's shoulder with my right hand holding the mobile phone, and said softly: "Qiqi, don't cry yet. Today is your birthday. It's a happy birthday." It’s such a bad day for you to cry like this. Come on, let’s go to the box first. I’ll toast you with a drink later.”
Chen Mengqi stopped crying, raised her tear-filled eyes, and stared at Ye Ming's face for a long time. Then she raised her hand, touched Ye Ming's cheek affectionately, and said with choked sobs: "Brother, I thought you forgot my birthday. I thought you never wanted to see me again. You don't know, when I just heard Mr. Jiang say that you were here, I was almost so happy. I'm dizzy...Brother, you know, I've been thinking about you, I miss you so much, I'm going crazy. If you don't come today, I'll probably collapse in a day or two... …”
At this point, tears rolled out of her eyes again, and she was so choked that she couldn't speak any more...
Ye Ming also felt sad in his heart. He saw that the people around him, especially the security captain Chen Jiu, were looking at them with surprise and disbelief, watching their eldest lady express her heartfelt feelings to him, a "heartless man", in front of them. , I felt embarrassed again, and my face turned slightly red.
So, he put his mouth close to Chen Mengqi's ear and whispered: "Qiqi, let go of me first, and let's go upstairs to the box together... Look, all your subordinates are watching me eagerly, look at them That look of hatred, as if you want to eat me alive, if you don't take me away, they might really come up and beat me up,"
