The luxurious commercial building gathered talents from all walks of life. Everyone worked hard and did not slack off. Their busy lives allowed them to display their strength without reservation.
The Holy Seal Group had been established for eight years. It had grown from a small, unknown company to a large group today. It was all thanks to the young and successful business legend, Ou Longtao.
Ou Longtao was thirty-three years old this year. His parents died in an accident when he was young, leaving behind a younger brother, Ou Longwei, who depended on him for survival.
With his brother's full support, Ou Longwei was now studying for a Ph.D. in economics in the United States. After he returned to China, he would join the Holy Seal Group and become his brother's right-hand man.
It was foreseeable that the two brothers would be able to call the shots in the business world, and no company would be able to compete with them.
Ou Longtao was still one of the golden bachelors. Many socialites and nobles wanted to take the opportunity to get close to him, but he didn't like any of them. He was so pure that everyone was amazed.
He was quite punctual. He worked more than ten hours a day and went home obediently after work. He didn't have any playboy behavior.
It wasn't that he was ugly. On the contrary, the frog from before had become Prince Charming. His slightly chubby body had become a strong and tall figure after training. His dark skin color had also become healthier and more mature.
His side-parting hairstyle accentuated his handsome face. Whether it was his side profile or his front, he looked like a reincarnation of Pan An. His every move was filled with nobility and elegance. He was no longer the little brat who had been belittled by women. Now, he had a noble background and a wealthy family. Many women would automatically throw themselves at him.
Duan Langyao held the invitation card for the class reunion in his hand and walked into Ou Longtao's office while humming a song excitedly. A woman followed behind him, watching his every move like a bodyguard, afraid that he would make any mistakes.
Duan Langyao had been Ou Longtao's good friend since high school. Although his family ran a mafia business, he didn't look like a mafia member. Instead, he was handsome and refined. In the eyes of outsiders, his appearance was too feminine, and he was mistaken for a woman several times. However, his temper made everyone avoid him.
Once he lost his temper, it could only be described as " shocking heaven and earth, weeping ghosts and gods ".
"Tao! "Look, what did I bring you…" Duan Langyao's beautiful face appeared in front of Ou Longtao.
At the same time, he was also a standard " hen grandfather ". When everything fell into his hands, small things would usually become a disaster, and big things would become a disaster.
Seeing the card in Duan Langyao's hand, Ou Longtao couldn't help but smile mysteriously.
"You're smiling so cunningly. Are you looking forward to the class reunion?”Duan Langyao knew exactly where his smile came from. He walked to the sofa and sat down, while the woman behind him was still standing expressionlessly at the side.
Ou Longtao seemed to have gotten used to her following him, so he didn't show any reaction.
"You know I've been waiting for this day for a long time.”For this day, he had changed himself with all his might. That was why he and the company were where they were today. All of this was thanks to " her ".
"Are you impatient?" Duan Langyao raised his eyebrows ambiguously.
No matter how one looked at it, Duan Langyao looked like the incarnation of a woman. Just a slight raise of his eyebrows was enough to make him look charming. It was such a pity that he was a man.
"Cut the crap. Are you sure she has received it?”
"Don't worry, I'll do it! However…you've put in so much effort to organize this class reunion. If she doesn't go, won't your previous efforts be in vain?”
"She will go." Ou Longtao was very confident.
"She is no longer the Yi Lianqian of the past. How can you be so sure that she will go?”Looking at his godlike manner, he seemed to think that Yi Lianqian was still the Yi Lianqian of the past, completely unchanged.
Little did he know that after the baptism of time, the growth of age, and the isolation of space, the innocent days of the two had long drawn a resentful end in high school.
Perhaps Yi Lianqian had already forgotten about the existence of Ou Longtao. However, he did not dare to voice out his guess because the man opposite him placed great importance on this matter.
He could joke about anything, but he could not joke about anything related to Yi Lianqian, because he would take it seriously to the point where he would forget to eat and sleep.
In high school, Tao had no choice but to transfer schools because of his father's job. However, he found it difficult to tell Yi Lianqian about it. In addition, he had always kept his feelings of admiration for Yi Lianqian in his heart. As the day of the transfer school approached, he became more and more depressed.
As a good friend, he naturally could not bear to see him being upset over Yi Lianqian. Hence, he dragged him to Yi Lianqian to confess his feelings. Who knew that Yi Lianqian would embarrass him in front of everyone and completely hurt his heart. Hence, he used the excuse of transferring schools the next day to completely cut off all ties with Yi Lianqian and never saw her again.
Originally, he thought that the two of them would be two parallel lines that could never cross from now on, but Tao insisted on taking revenge for the humiliation from back then.
It was also because of this belief that Ou Longtao had achieved so much today.
In order to reduce his bulky physique, he worked out and swam every day. At the same time, he strengthened his knowledge and professional abilities so that Yi Lianqian would look at him in a different light one day.
Now that he had done it, he wanted to use this opportunity to change Yi Lianqian's life.
"You." Ou Longtao stared at Duan Langyao.
"Me?" He was puzzled.
"Just a phone call and it'll be done.”
"You mean…you want me to call her?”
"That's right." He nodded and smiled, his eyes full of calculation.
"What do you want me to say?" Duan Langyao asked with a smile.
"Whatever you say, as long as you have a way to get her to attend the class reunion.”
"I don't want to get involved in the feud between you two.”
"I have no grudges against her."
"You're trying so hard to get close to her. If it's not a grudge, could it be love? Please don't tell me that you still love her. Didn't you say that you wanted to get back at her?”
Ou Longtao pursed his thin lips and let Duan Langyao continue.
"A man's humiliation will be avenged with this. I believe that with your current appearance, Yi Lianqian will definitely be infatuated with you. When she can't bear to part with you, you can then ruthlessly dump her.”
"This plan requires you to make a call. As long as you make a phone call, you have to let her attend the class reunion no matter what.”The past was like a movie that was rewound. Ou Longtao's heart was slightly stung.
No matter how many years had passed, time could not ease the pain of his first love. Every time he fixed the past on the scene of being rejected, his heart would involuntarily ache.
Yi Lianqian's face was like a devil that haunted his mind. He had once thought that she was an angel, but in reality, she was a devil that would always come out and tease him!
"I'm afraid I can't bear this heavy responsibility!”What a joke. Who could have predicted how Yi Lianqian would change after a few years? He didn't want to die before he had even succeeded.
Being sandwiched between the two of them was a thankless task.
"If you don't do it, the hatred in my heart won't disappear.”Ou Longtao looked at him bitterly.
Duan Langyao knew that this was a trick to hurt himself, but he had no choice but to obey. I'll help you. What do you want me to do?”
Ou Longtao glanced at the woman beside him.
"Don't mind her. Her mouth is as tight as a clam's shell. If she knew how to say it, she would have said it a long time ago. It's not like you don't know her personality.”Duan Langyao's gaze fell on the woman beside him.
His deep eyes were filled with complicated emotions, but in an instant, he raised his head and stared at Ou Longtao.
No one knew what complicated thoughts were hidden under his indifferent appearance, and all of this originated from this female bodyguard who had always protected him since he was young.
Even though she had become the focus of the men's discussion, the woman still stood beside Duan Langyao without moving.
Her face was expressionless, like a puppet doll that was being controlled by someone. All her actions were for Duan Langyao.
"Uncle is still unwilling to remove the bodyguards?”Due to Duan Langyao's special status, he was protected by bodyguards whenever he went out. Usually, bodyguards should be men, but his bodyguard was a seemingly weak woman.
For this woman, Duan Langyao had already quarreled with his father countless times, but he had no choice but to give up in the end. The complicated factors involved were not something that ordinary people could understand.
"I don't mind having a bodyguard, but it's a joke to have a female bodyguard protect me!”The two of them discussed her as if she was invisible. "Forget it, let's not talk about this. Let's talk about Yi Lianqian. What do you want me to do?”
The turbulent waves between the two of them could not be resolved in a short period of time. To Tao, the most important thing now was to take revenge on Yi Lianqian!
He was waiting to see how the woman who made fun of him would end up making him laugh!
He simply couldn't wait for this day to come!
Ou Longtao walked to Duan Langyao's side, a smile slowly appearing on his well-defined face. It seemed to be a smile that he had not seen for a long time.
This Ou Longtao was simply a born baddie!
He, the dignified Duan Langyao, was actually running errands for him!
He had already said that after such a long time, Yi Lianqian had changed a long time ago. No matter what, her personality would never be the same as before. Yet, Tao refused to believe in him and insisted that he use any method to make Yi Lianqian participate in the class reunion.
Not only had he been doused with cold water on the other end of the phone, but he had already arrived at the entrance of the shop, but he did not know how to go in and say hello. This Yi Lianqian was not an easy woman to deal with, yet Tao was 'dead set' on taking revenge. Sigh, let's see what kind of good thing his hen had brought him!
However, Duan Langyao suddenly had a sudden impulse. He turned his head to the female bodyguard who had been following him closely, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.
"You're a woman. It's most appropriate for you to go in.”He was a grown man, so how could he enter a beauty studio!
The woman didn't say anything and just stared at him.
"I'm a man. It's not convenient for me to go in.”He was already used to her silence, but he knew that she listened to every word he said.
Duan Langyao stared at her, waiting for her answer.
The woman shook her head in refusal.
He really had a personality, didn't he?
Logically speaking, she was his bodyguard and should naturally listen to him. However, sometimes she was very self-conscious. Although she did not speak, it was obvious from her eyes.
Duan Langyao could only rub his nose and walk in.
When Liu Xichen saw the guests, she immediately revealed her beautiful voice with a sweet smile." Is this your first time here, ladies?”
Duan Langyao's face immediately fell, looking unhappy.
Hua Menglan, who was standing next to Liu Xichen, was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted and squeezed Liu Xichen's hand.
Liu Xichen was still wondering why Hua Menglan pinched her, but Duan Langyao's voice and words had already explained everything.
"I am a man!"
Liu Xichen was stunned." You're a man?”
"100%."
"But your face is too…"
"Isn't it too feminine?"
"That's right, that's why I thought you were…"
"I…Forget it, you're not the first to think so.”
Liu Xichen heaved a sigh of relief. The way he glared at her just now made her think that she had hit his sore spot. She was still thinking about how to appease him, but fortunately, the rain had passed.
However, what a pity! Looking at his beautiful appearance, he was simply a woman among women. As a man, it was simply a pity for many men.
"Is Yi Lianqian here?"
"Are you looking for Lian Qian?"
"Is she not here?" Did he come at the wrong time?
"No…she's mixing drinks. Is there anything you need from her?”
"I'm Yi Lianqian's high school classmate. I'm here today to invite her to the class reunion.”
"Oh…so it's Lian Qian's classmate. Wait a moment, I'll call her out.”
"There's no need to shout." Yi Lianqian walked out from behind. She had not put on any makeup and had a plain and clean appearance. She looked extremely pure and adorable.
"I've already made it very clear on the phone that I don't want to attend the class reunion. Besides, how did you know that I work here?”She frowned and glared at the uninvited guest.
When he walked into the studio openly and was mistaken by Liu Xichen as a woman, she knew that Duan Langyao would not give up and would come looking for her.
"If you didn't know, how did you receive the invitation card for the class reunion? I spent a lot of effort to find out your whereabouts from other students.”
"No matter what you say, I won't attend the class reunion.”
"How can that do? It won't be fun without you.”
"I'm just an insignificant character. It doesn't matter if I'm missing.”
"Who said that? You were a big shot in high school. Everyone wanted to see you. They wanted to know how you've become, whether you're married, and whether you have a family.”
"Do I look like I'm married? Like a group of children?" Yi Lian rolled her eyes at him and sneered.
"Just be kind and give me face as the organizer. My classmates told me that they must let you attend the class reunion. They all want to see you!”
" Wow, I didn't know that Lian Qian was so popular..." Liu Xichen muttered to himself.
It was really hard to imagine that just a class reunion would actually require the organizer to personally come out and lobby, insisting that Love Green must go. It was really like putting soy sauce in a black bottle--it was hard to tell.
"Shut up!" Hua Menglan pulled Liu Xichen to the side." Don't talk. Just watch quietly."”
"I didn't say anything. I was just telling the truth…"
"You still said that you'll suffer if Lian Qian goes crazy later! Shut up and listen to them."
"Alright, don't keep pulling my hand. It hurts!”Liu Xichen pursed his lips and shut his mouth reluctantly.
"I've already said that I'm busy that day.”
"Please, can you give me some face?”
Yi Lianqian's will was firm. She would not go.
"Sigh, what should I do now? I even boasted to my classmates that you would definitely go. Now that my persuasion failed, how do you want me to explain it to them?”Duan Lang Yao said in distress.
"Go and think of a way to solve it yourself. There will be guests coming later. I want to go upstairs to prepare things first.”Yi Lian ordered him to leave, so he could not continue to talk.
"Are you really not going? Really?" Duan Langyao confirmed again.
This cold-hearted woman really didn't want to save him and left him alone to beg.
"It's true!"
"Are you the only one left or not? Even someone as busy as Lian Tao has to attend the class reunion, can't you?”He would not give up until he was in despair.
"Tao?" Yi Lianqian narrowed her eyes. This word seemed to have evoked a fragment of her memories.
A memory that had been sealed for a long time seemed to be hovering in her mind again, playing quickly like a video.
"Ou Longtao, have you forgotten him?”
Yi Lianqian remained silent.
"That Ou Longtao who has been very protective and concerned about you since you were a child. He has fought and quarreled with countless people for you, and…"
"There's no need to say anything else. I know. I didn't forget.”
"Ever since he transferred schools, you haven't seen each other for a long time, have you?”
"How is he?"
"If you're willing to come to the class reunion and ask him yourself, that would be the best.”
Yi Lianqian thought for a moment before replying,""I will go."
"That's more like it! " You guys used to be very good friends. It's been many years since we last met. I'm sure you guys have a lot to say. On the day of the class reunion, I…" Duan Langyao, who was initially excited because of Yi Lianqian's promise, suddenly paused. The words in his throat were stuck in his throat because of the sharp gazes from the crowd.
" I have a guest later. You can leave first…" Yi Lianqian ordered him to leave again.
Usually, she was the most hospitable person, but this time, she actually opened her mouth to chase people away. Was it going to rain red?
Seeing that the situation wasn't right, Duan Langyao could only rub his nose and leave. Anyway, the task that Ou Longtao had given him had been completed, and now it was up to his " performance ".
Duan Langyao smiled." See you on the day of the class reunion."”
"Okay, I won't send you off." Yi Lianqian glanced at the expressionless woman beside Duan Langyao. She had attracted her attention for a moment, but it was only for a second. She then turned her attention back to the class reunion.
Duan Langyao whistled and left, feeling relieved.
Yi Lianqian's pensive expression fell into the eyes of her friends.#
