Li Siqiao was preparing her makeup and hairstyle for the evening celebration, and when she saw Wu Zhizhi coming over, she let the others go out first.

"This extravagance is really worthy of being a mother," Wu Zhizhi approached laughingly, stood behind Li Siqiao's chair, and said while looking at her in the mirror.

Li Siqiao straightened her hair at the sideburns, smiled, and took her time.

"Today is not just for celebration, there are more important things... Naturally, it should be more dazzling."

Usually Li Siqiao doesn't like such a complicated process, but today is different. She wants to help her son solve some troubles, so she should devote herself wholeheartedly.

"What do you think of my makeup?"

"Well..." Wu only took a closer look, and came to the conclusion, "It looks quite expensive, and it suits you today."

"That's good," Li Siqiao smiled happily.

Normally, if she won an award for a certain jewelry design, she would definitely not have such a big party, but this time...

"It's a little earlier than I expected," Li Siqiao looked at Wu Zhizhi who was combing her hair in the mirror, "Is work over?"

"Forget it."

Wu Zhizhi didn't really want to bring up today's events, "Unlucky."

"What's the matter?" Li Siqiao asked amusedly, "I've never seen you like this before."

That's because there are usually no such unlucky people appearing.

The matter was buried deep in his heart and he was in a panic. Anyway, he had nothing to do at the moment, so Wu Zhizhi told Li Siqiao that she had drawn Shen Tingchen by lottery.

"Do you have a song you want to sing as a chorus?"

"Mom!" Wu just exploded, "Is this the point?"

Li Siqiao couldn't help but laugh, "I know what you mean, but it's a certainty now, don't you say that the matter is a foregone conclusion."

Wu just muttered: "There is nothing wrong with saying that..."

"So, the most important thing is the selection of songs. No matter who the other party is, becoming the champion singer is the most important thing you should do right now."

What Li Siqiao said was true, Wu just nodded.

"I'll think about it."

The two of them chatted one after another, and from "The King of Times" they talked about Gu Xinchen. Li Siqiao couldn't help sighing when he thought that Gu Xinchen hadn't come home for so long.

If it weren't for the group of people who were in charge of making up and grooming her, Li Siqiao would have dragged Wu Zhizhi to pin his nostalgia for Gu Xinchen.

I stayed with Li Siqiao to dress up until six o'clock, when the ladies and wives who were invited began to come to the door one after another.

Wu Zhi just stood on the balcony and looked at the wealthy women who filed in from downstairs, his heart was as calm as water.

When she appeared downstairs with Li Siqiao on her arm, almost all the people who came to the door with invitation letters had already arrived.

At a glance, most of them were people Wu Zhizhi didn't know.

But Li Siqiao could call each of them by name, Wu only felt that she was quite powerful.

Shuttle among the crowd of fragrant clothes and temples, Li Siqiao didn't look comfortable, she kept looking at a certain position at the door, as if she was waiting for someone to come.

Wu only knew what the purpose behind this celebration was.

But she didn't talk much, she just stayed by Li Siqiao's side and entertained other people with her.

Originally thinking that there would be no one she wanted to wait for this night, Xiaohong walked up in time and whispered next to the two of them.

"Ma'am, here we come."

Li Siqiao's eyes lit up, and then deliberately made an expression of "I don't care", leading Wu Zhizhi to the front of the crowd.

"Thank you all for coming tonight, thank you very much!"

Wu Zhi only stood at the front of the crowd and watched Li Siqiao happily addressing everyone. Because the protagonist spoke, the others stopped chatting and looked in Li Siqiao's direction with a smile.

Li Siqiao was not at all stage frightened. She first raised her wine glass to the crowd, and then elaborated on her ideas when designing the 'Huahuo' series.

What she said was professional, and the people in the audience were fascinated by it.

Only Wu was the only one, and he couldn't help but glance at the door, as if he was waiting for someone to appear.

Not long after, a man in a white suit appeared at the door led by Xiaohong.

Behind him, followed by two men in uniform, holding a huge flower basket, which was a gift congratulating Li Siqiao for winning the award.

Finally waiting for you, Chen Weiyang.

When Gu Yousi said it before, Wu Zhi just didn't believe it. In her opinion, Chen Weiyang's asking about Li Siqiao was just a common polite greeting in shopping malls.

She really did not expect that this time, Chen Weiyang would come to visit Li Siqiao.

As far as Wu Zhizhi knew, Li Siqiao didn't even send an invitation letter to Chen Weiyang, he just came over with such a shy face...but Li Siqiao didn't even know him.

Chen Weiyang followed Xiaohong to the field, but Wu only subconsciously turned his head to look at Li Siqiao who was talking endlessly.

Li Siqiao didn't notice Chen Weiyang at all, until Wu Zhizhi reminded her when she finished her design concept.

"Chen Weiyang is here."

Wu just whispered in Li Siqiao's ear.

"Where is it, I..."

"Mrs. Gu."

The two were talking head to head when suddenly a male voice joined in. The two followed the voice and looked over, just in time to see a middle-aged man in a white suit walking towards them.

Wu only slightly tugged on Li Siqiao's arm, Li Siqiao understood and said seriously.

"This gentleman is..."

Chen Weiyang's expression was indifferent, but Wu Zhizhi saw a kind of alienation under his deliberately indifferent expression... similar to the feeling of alienation when meeting old friends?

But when I looked closely, I couldn't see anything.

When he came in front of the two of them, Chen Weiyang bowed slightly, neither humble nor overbearing, a gentleman and polite.

"My surname is Chen."

When Li Siqiao heard the word 'Chen', the corners of Li Siqiao's mouth became flat. She thought of some long-ago things that were not very beautiful.

Chen Weiyang continued with a smile.

"The name is Weiyang. I have admired the name for a long time. I came here without invitation. I hope Mrs. Gu will be sympathetic."

He spoke smoothly in a scene, and Li Siqiao smiled implicitly.

"Thanks to Mr. Chen for coming here to congratulate, I am very happy."

Wu just watched Chen Weiyang's movements nonchalantly from the sidelines, but Chen Weiyang was just like what Gu Yousi said, a real old fox who didn't show himself.

Except for the senses at the moment when they first met, Wu Zhizhi couldn't see any flaws in him.

It's hard to do.

Wu Zhizhi made no progress here, and neither did Li Siqiao.

"I met your son at a reception before, and asked him about Mrs. Gu. I wonder if he told you about it?"

Chen Weiyang didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, he couldn't stop talking to Li Siqiao, and in a blink of an eye he talked about Gu Yousi again.

Li Siqiao was unmoved.

"No."

"It seems that your son is very busy on weekdays. I thought he would at least mention a few words."

Chen Weiyang squinted his sharp eyes and looked at Li Siqiao, as if to see if she was telling lies.

But no matter how he peeped, Li Siqiao still showed no weakness.

"Thanks to Mr. Chen, you have been busy for a long time and haven't come home," Li Siqiao looked at and smiled, but the coldness in his eyes couldn't be stopped.

China Construction Group's sudden defection was a great blow to Gu and Gu Yousi.

Li Siqiao was quite surprised that he dared to mention this first.

"This...the situation in the shopping mall is changing, no one can tell for sure, I just reached out when it was time to try my best..."

The tone sounded polite, but there was no sign of apology on the face, but a little complacency on the contrary.

"Mr. Chen doesn't need to say more, I understand."

Li Siqiao smiled softly and interrupted Chen Weiyang, "I can't manage the shopping mall either."

"I'm talking too much."

Like all successful people, Chen Weiyang immediately attributed the problem to himself.

But I don't really feel like myself.

When Wu Zhizhi was in the world, he saw too many hypocrites like this.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit strange, she immediately stood up and brought the topic to why Chen Weiyang appeared here tonight.

"Yes, I seem to remember that Mr. Chen was not invited."

"Well, actually..." Chen Weiyang smiled awkwardly and said sincerely.

"It's my wife who has been paying attention to Mrs. Gu's designs since a long time ago. She has been admiring you for a long time and likes your jewelry very much. It happened that I was lucky enough to learn about your celebration party, so I came here without an appointment."

After a pause, he continued.

"Please don't blame me."

Li Siqiao: "No, it is my honor to be liked by Mrs. Chen."

At the first meeting, Li Siqiao didn't think Chen Weiyang was very familiar, but for some reason, the more they talked, the more she felt that they knew each other before.

Is it an illusion?

But not simply.

Li Siqiao was puzzled, thinking about Gu Youbi asking her if she knew Chen Weiyang...

This celebration was arranged for Chen Weiyang, this time is the best time to ask him.

"Mr. Chen, have we met before?"

When Li Siqiao said this, Chen Weiyang's eyes obviously dimmed a little, and for a split second, Wu only saw a flash of hatred flashing through his eyes.

Chen Weiyang didn't answer for a while, but Li Siqiao said again.

"It feels like you are somewhat similar to an old friend of mine, but how exactly do you look like..." She stared carefully at Chen Weiyang for a few times.

Chen Weiyang obviously resisted her scrutiny.

"Really?" Chen Weiyang said.

Li Siqiao nodded, then shook his head, but couldn't tell what it looked like.

"Maybe it's just a human impression," Wu only stood up to smooth things over, "If we met, it's impossible for the two parties to meet each other without knowing each other."

Chen Weiyang nodded.

Li Siqiao could only give up.

The conversation between the two ended here, and Chen Weiyang left the party early on the pretext that he still had something to do.

From his appearance to his departure, it didn't even take 10 or [-] minutes, but looking at his leaving back, Wu only felt that he was very similar to someone, and the feeling in his heart deepened a lot.

After the party, Wu Zhizhi was not in a hurry to go home.

While helping Li Siqiao remove her hair and make-up, she seemed to shift the topic to Chen Weiyang.

Hearing what she meant, Li Siqiao didn't hold back her appetite, and directly stated his conclusion.

"It's true that I didn't have any interaction with him before, it's not that I can't remember, it's really not."

"However, he gave me a very familiar feeling."

"It feels weird, not like it or hate it, just disgusted."

"It's exhausting to talk to him."

Wu just didn't feel this way, "He scares me."

I can't say why, although Chen Weiyang is not handsome, he is definitely not ugly. Compared with most middle-aged men, he is probably more of a "mature uncle" type.

Wu Zhizhi didn't hate this kind of thing, but whenever she faced Chen Weiyang, she always felt palpitations for no reason.

She tried her best not to show it to her face, but thinking about it later, she still couldn't help feeling flustered.
