"Gu Ruyi's 20th birthday is tomorrow. She sent us an invitation. Xiangmi, do you want to go?”Mu Zixi carried a large pile of vegetables and said after entering.
"Yes, did she invite me?" Shen Xiangmi, who was writing in her diary, quickly stood up and went to help with the dishes.
"Yes." Mu Zixi took out the two red invitation cards and waved them in front of Shen Xiangmi.
Shen Xiangmi pondered for a moment and put the vegetables back into the kitchen. She came back and said,"I want to learn how to review orders tomorrow. We haven't studied foreign trade before, so it's a little difficult for me to do my work now. She got off work an hour later than usual and had just arrived home. You should go by yourself!"
"There will be plenty of opportunities to learn in the future. I heard that many handsome men and socialites from rich families are going to Gu Ruyi's family Party. Let's go and take a look.”Seeing that Shen Xiangmi refused, Mu Zixi quickly persuaded her. She had already promised Gu Ruyi, so she could not waste her kind intentions and this exquisite invitation.
Shen Xiangmi did not say anything. She was weighing the pros and cons. She hated banquets like this the most. Not only was she uncomfortable, but if she was unlucky, she would also get involved with one or two pestering men. This was a lesson she learned from attending the ball in university. However, since Mu Zixi wanted her to go with him so much, it would be bad for her to reject him. She was really in a dilemma.
Mu Zixi really wanted to go. After all, she was now working in a decent company. A few days ago, she became a full-time employee. Long Fei's attitude towards her was not as harsh as before, and her career was finally settled. But what about marriage? It was not a bad thing to know more celebrities. Although she wasn't in a hurry to get married, if she could bring a boyfriend back earlier and show him to her mother, wouldn't her mother be happy? Moreover, she felt that the saying," The kind of friends a person has, the kind of life they have, the kind of person they will become " made sense. Your friends and relatives are all rich. You can't be willing to be the only poor person. Getting to know more rich people would definitely be an incentive for his life. Also, Shen Xiangmi was too obsessed with Jiang Qing. What would she do if she was rejected one day? It was also beneficial for her to know more people. Thinking of this, Mu Zixi's heart palpitated. He was frightened by his own thoughts. How could she be so unlucky as to think of a good friend's marriage? Pei, pei, pei, it wouldn't happen, she immediately told herself.
"Xiangmi, can you accompany me? People who don't know how to rest can't study. Look at how tired you've been recently. It's time for you to take a breather. Moreover, the party is only in the morning. It won't take up much of your time.”Seeing that she was still in a dilemma, Mu Zixi hurriedly tried to persuade her again.
"Okay, I'll go then." Shen Xiangmi had always found it hard to reject Mu Zixi. Because as long as it was within her means, Mu Zixi had never rejected her.
"That's great. Xiangmi, I knew you were the best. Let's see what we'll wear tomorrow.”
After saying that, the two of them flipped all the clothes on the bench, opened them one by one, and then folded them. They really didn't have any decent clothes. Who asked them to always consider the price first when they bought anything? In the end, Mu Zixi found a chanel style shirt and a pleated skirt. She tried it on. Although she was not particularly satisfied with the dress, it made her look very good. Shen Xiangmi did not want to attend such a banquet in the first place, so she found the simplest black dress.
The two of them took the bus for an hour and finally arrived at Gu Ruyi's home. When they were in university, Gu Ruyi had invited them, but for various reasons, they had never been there.
It was really a beautiful two-story villa in European style. The red tiles and white walls were hidden under the shade of rows of thick green trees. Mu Zixi loved the huge banana tree and the statue of the goddess of art in front of the villa, not to mention the carved door and the magnificent decorations inside. She really envied these rich people. No wonder so many people desperately wanted to marry into rich families. However, if these superior external material conditions were to be based on sacrificing love, she still felt that it was not worth it. Even though she still didn't know what love was, after watching so much television, she felt that love should be the most beautiful thing in the world. There was nothing shameful about people pursuing fame and fortune normally. Instead, it could promote social development. However, if the pursuit of fame and fortune was not through one's own efforts, but through opportunism and sitting idly by, it would be harmful to society.
"Come quickly, Zixi, Xiangmi, come over. I'll introduce my brother to you.”Gu Ruyi enthusiastically called for them to go over.
When the two of them walked up to her, Gu Ruyi whispered,"I hate those so-called socialites the most. Some of them pester my brother all day. Help me anger those people.”
"Senior Xiangmi, you're so beautiful. You look especially good in a black dress.”Gu Ru praised Shen Xiangmi, who was expressionless.
"Thank you." In the past, many people had praised her beauty, but she had always replied humbly in embarrassment. Later on, when he went to university and learned foreign languages, foreigners would happily say thank you to compliments. She felt that this was very good. She replied confidently and naturally. Since she had expressed her gratitude, she did not seem hypocritical. Therefore, he had always responded with this word.
"Oh, right, that boy yesterday, is he your boyfriend?”Mu Zixi was not a gossipy person. She just wanted to avoid her request to help her brother anger others and changed the topic. For a moment, she did not know what to say, so she casually asked.
"Mm, yes. How is it? It's okay, right?”When Gu Ruyi heard Mu Zixi mention her boyfriend, her smile became even brighter than before.
"Pretty good. He didn't come today?”Seeing that she was happy, Mu Zixi continued to ask.
"He has an emergency surgery today. He won't be able to come until tonight.”
"Saving people is more important. He's a doctor.”Mu Zixi praised her sincerely. When she was in university, she saw her mother's illness and had a deep desire to become a doctor who saved lives. Therefore, she had also learned some medical knowledge in private. However, other than nursing herself and her mother, she had no other use.
Mu Zixi and Shen Xiangmi followed Gu Ruyi to the hall.
Brother Longfei, you're here too." Gu Ruyi saw that Long Fei and his brother were chatting fervently. There were a few women surrounding them in the smoke, so she immediately raised her voice and interrupted their conversation.
Hearing Gu Ruyi's words, Mu Zixi looked over and saw Long Fei. Long Fei was also looking at her. When their eyes met, Mu Zixi felt a little embarrassed. She hesitated whether she should go forward to greet Long Fei, but in the end, she lowered her head and did not go.
" I'm sorry to disturb you. Brother, come here for a moment," Gu Ruyi smiled and called out to Gu Chengshu.
"What are you doing!" Gu Chengshu replied impatiently. Come, let me introduce you to my seniors. I've mentioned them to you several times before. They helped me a lot in university. They're Mu Zixi and Shen Xiangmi.
Seeing Shen Xiangmi, Gu Chengshu's spirits were lifted, and his long and narrow peach blossom eyes lit up.
"Hello, my name is Gu Chengshu. Nice to meet you." Gu Chengshu greeted the two of them elegantly, but his eyes kept looking at Shen Xiangmi.
Long Fei observed everything silently from a distance. For the first time, he walked past the beauties and looked at Mu Zixi and Shen Xiangmi seriously. When he saw Shen Xiangmi, his eyes lit up. She was indeed beautiful, like a woman who had walked out of a landscape painting. She was bright and beautiful, and she was not tainted by the mortal world. Who wouldn't like a beautiful woman that was pleasing to the eye? However, he still turned his gaze to Mu Zixi again. At this moment, the person he was interested in was Mu Zixi. Mu Zixi was smiling and chatting with Gu Ruyi. Her small red breasts and double eyelids were not particularly big. They looked a little fresh against the purple-red color. Her skin was not as pale as before, like the beautiful lilies in the mountains. Actually, this little woman was quite interesting…
Long Fei was watching attentively and thinking a little deeply when Guo Lijian arrived. He walked straight towards Mu Zixi. He walked in front of Mu Zixi and happened to block Long Fei's gaze from Mu Zixi. Long Fei had no choice but to look away and look around. When Guo Lijian saw her, he wanted to explain to her what happened last time. He wanted to explain to her that Guo Xueqing was not his girlfriend, but her sister. However, she felt that it was a little abrupt. Why did he tell her all this? Did she care about all this? After thinking about it, he didn't say it out loud.
"Zi Xi, you're here too."
"Yes, it's President Guo. Let's go over there. I happen to have something to talk to you about.”Mu Zixi was very happy to see Guo Lijian, but there were too many people here. She wanted to find a quiet place to talk about the treat. Her salary had been paid for a few days, and she hadn't found a suitable time.
Seeing the two of them leave side by side, Long Fei was very unhappy. He was actually a little disappointed. Long Fei explained his feelings at that time. It was like an animal that was willing to be abused by itself had fallen into the hands of others, and then it could not be abused by itself. However, he felt that this explanation wasn't very appropriate. Mu Zixi was his assistant. Why didn't she greet him? Why did she get so close to his good friend? Would this explanation make sense? However, he still felt that something was wrong. This was really a strange feeling. Long Fei laughed at himself for being inexplicable and went to Gu Chengshu. He wanted to continue the topic with him, but Gu Chengshu's eyes could not leave Shen Xiangmi. He was still talking non-stop to Shen Xiangmi. Long Fei felt annoyed when Long Manqin came in from outside the door and entered his sight. He finally found something to do and immediately walked over.
"Manqin, why are you here?"
"Yeah, so what? Are you the only one who can come and I can't?”Long Manqin replied angrily when she heard Long Fei greeting her in a questioning tone.
"That's not what I meant. Did you eat gunpowder? Why are you speaking so bluntly?”Long Fei was already in a bad mood. He didn't expect his sister to give him a bad face and said angrily.
"I hate you. I know what you're thinking. What kind of banquet did you let me attend?”
"I'm doing this for your own good. You're still in school. Other than wasting time and delaying your studies, what good is there in attending these messy banquets?”
"What a messy banquet. Why are you here? I have the final say. Why should you decide for me? What's wrong with making new friends in such a place? Forget it, I don't want to argue with you here.”Long Manqin turned around and walked towards a girl.
Seeing this, Long Fei no longer paid attention to her and silently thought about his thoughts.
