After Shao Jin had breakfast, he and Du Lin hurried to the branch office. Xie Ran wandered around the hotel boringly alone. This hotel is owned by Shao Jin Company. There are also golf courses in the hot springs, and there are gaming venues and bars underground.

Xie Ran wandered aimlessly by himself, and walked to the entrance of the bar. During the day, there were not many people in the bar. Xie Ran walked to the bar, ordered a glass of wine, sat down, and looked around boredly. , take a sip of wine from time to time.

"Hi, do you mind if I sit here?" Xie Ran turned around and saw a man standing behind him, who seemed to be about the same age as Shao Jin, with a smile on his lips, and a pair of red phoenix eyes looking at him with a sense of scrutiny, subconsciously It made Xie Ran feel a little uncomfortable.

Seeing that Xie Ran didn't speak, the man raised his hand and pushed the mirror frame on the bridge of his nose, put the wine glass on the bar, and sat down.

"Have a drink together?" The man raised his eyebrows and looked at Xie Ran.

Xie Ran played with the wine glass in his hand, picked it up and under the watchful eyes of the man, drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp, and put the wine glass on the bar counter with a bang.Talk about saying "Sorry, I don't like drinking with strangers."

The man seemed to have found the fun, and looked at Xie Ran with great interest. Xie Ran was uncomfortable being stared at by him, and got up to leave, but the phone rang at this moment.

Xie Ran walked and answered the phone. On the other end of the phone, Shao Jin seemed to have just finished a meeting, with a trace of fatigue in his voice, and there were other people talking around.

"Is the meeting over?" Xie Ran asked.

Shao Jin hummed, and then someone seemed to ask him what was the matter, Xie Ran listened to Shao Jin whispering to that person, "Do you know how to do this?"

When Shao Jin talked to his subordinates, his voice was a bit colder than when he was talking to himself. In addition to his naturally low voice, it sounded very cold and businesslike.

Not gentle at all, Xie Ran couldn't help slandering Shao Jin in his heart, just when he was thinking wildly, Shao Jin's voice came from the other side, "Does your stomach still hurt?" Compared with the previous cold talk, At this moment, Shao Jin's voice is really gentle, deep and gentle, Xie Ran was a little lost when he heard it at first.

"Well...much better." Xie Ran replied in a muffled voice.

Seeing that Xie Ran was not in a good mood, Shao Jin chuckled, "Little guy, are you bored?" Shao Jin's smile had a hint of playfulness, every time he called the little guy, Xie Ran would feel like It was a pet kept by Shao Jin, but after thinking about it, who said it wasn't, it was still a pet that only needed to be handed over and eaten by him every day.

Thinking of this, Xie Ran felt a little depressed, and even complained in his tone, "It's okay."

However, what Xie Ran didn't know was that what he said was okay with complaints, but it sounded like a baby to Shao Jin.

Shao Jin paused for a while, and called out "Ranran?"

"Huh?" Xie Ran responded subconsciously, and then realized that Shao Jin had never called him that before, but before he had time to think about it, Shao Jin said slowly, "I like you so much." Acting coquettishly with me, like a kitten. It tickles my heart"

Xie Ran was blushed by Shao Jin's brazen words, and pretended to be angry and said, "You're fine, I'll hang up."

Seeing this, Shao Jin stopped teasing him, coughed, and said with a smile, "Don't forget the banquet at night. After a while, Du Lin will take people to the room. If the clothes don't fit, just tell them. They changed immediately."

"it is good!"

"Also, Du Lin will pick you up at night. I'll wait for you in the banquet hall, my little cat." Before Xie Ran could finish speaking, he hung up the phone decisively. Xie Ran looked at the blacked-out phone screen and closed the phone The smile on his face turned into the cold look just now, remembering that Shao Jin called him a kitten just now, he couldn't help but patted his arm.

As soon as Xie Ran left, the man who struck up a conversation with him in the bar came out from the darkness, looked at Xie Ran's back slowly disappearing thoughtfully, and said to himself, " interesting."

As soon as Xie Ran returned to the room, Du Lin brought a few people over.

"Dr. Xie, these are the designers Mr. Shao found for you. They will help you design your costumes for the banquet tonight."

Xie Ran nodded slightly to the people behind Du Lin, and said, "I'm in trouble."

The suit is high-end, the same as Shao Jin's, except that Xie Ran's facial features are not as sharp as Shao Jin's, so the designer made a slight change in the suit for Xie Ran, adding a pair of The pearl cuffs made Xie Ran very extravagant.The stylist put all of Xie Ran's hair back and styled it with hairspray. In order to make Xie Ran look more mature, the makeup artist specially helped Xie Ran raise his eyebrows, and the inner eyeliner at the end of his eyes was left unpainted Such a deep spot, together with the small mole under Xie Ran's eyes, made him look delicate and mature at the same time, with a touch of elegance and softness, but not feminine.

When Shao Jin saw Xie Ran at the banquet hall for the first time, his heart was shocked. Tonight's Xie Ran looked different from usual. He just stood there quietly, but seemed to be constantly Light emanated from his body.Looking at it, Shao Jin wanted to take him away for a moment, and didn't want anyone to see Xie Ran like this.

"What are you doing looking at me like that? What's the problem?" Seeing Shao Jin standing still for a long time, Xie Ran couldn't help asking.

"No, I can guarantee that you will be the focus tonight." Shao Jin walked up to Xie Ran, stretched out his arm, and winked at Xie Ran, Xie Ran put his hand on Shao Jin's arm, Shao Jin had a contented smile on his face.Xie Ran turned his head away, pouted secretly.

Today's party was originally specially prepared for Shao Jin by entrepreneurs from all over Linjiang, so as soon as Shao Jin entered the venue, he became the focus of everyone.

"Mr. Shao!"

"Mr. Shao!"

There were greetings one after another in the banquet hall, and Shao Jin nodded slightly. At the same time, Xie Ran beside Shao Jin also successfully became the focus of everyone. Except for Du Lin, everyone else turned to Xie Ran to either look at it or look at it. Curious glances.Staring at Xie Ran made him a little uncomfortable, and his brows were slightly frowned.

"Why, uncomfortable?" Shao Jin turned his head and asked Xie Ran's ear. Shao Jin's voice was a little low, because the two of them were close, and the air blown by Xie Ran's ear when they spoke made him a little itch.

He dodged subconsciously, and said, "I'm not uncomfortable, but I'm not used to this kind of occasion."

Shao Jin smiled after hearing this, and patted his hand on his arm comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, this kind of occasion will happen often in the future, and I will get used to it slowly."

Xie Ran raised his head and looked at Shao Jin, but finally said nothing.What does it mean that such occasions will happen frequently in the future, Xie Ran was a little puzzled.

From time to time, someone would come to toast Shao Jin. Every time at this time, they would ask Xie Ran who was beside him. After learning the identity of Xie Ran, they would say hello to Dr. Xie, Dr. Xie is a young and talented man. Xie Ran couldn't help feeling a little bored after hearing so much about it.Shao Jin saw that he was really bored, so he sent him to find a place to rest by himself. Xie Ranle was at ease, shook off Shao Jin's arm, and walked to a corner, and even followed the waiter halfway. Got a glass of champagne.

When Chen Ji came, he saw Xie Ran alone, holding a glass of wine in his hand, while gently shaking the glass, taking a sip from time to time, while casually scanning the audience.

Seeing this scene, Chen Ji let go of Shen Luo, who came with him, and said with a low smile, "Your sweetheart is over there, so I won't bother you." After speaking, he patted Shen Luo's waist lightly. Down, turned around and walked towards Xie Ran's direction.

"Hi, did we meet again?"

Xie Ran raised his head, and saw that the man in the bar during the day was holding a glass of champagne, standing in front of him with a smile, the eyes that wanted to see through him reflected on Xie Ran through the lens, which made him instinctively kind of disgust.

Xie Ran stood up, ignored the man's words just now, and walked around him to the other side. After walking a few steps, he heard the man calling him "Xie Ran."

Xie Ran turned back, looked at the person behind him with some astonishment in his eyes, Xie Ran searched in his brain, and confirmed that he did not recognize the person in front of him.

"Who are you and why do you know my name?" Xie Ran walked over and asked him.

Looking at his guarded appearance, Chen Ji found it very interesting, and just wanted to reach out to touch his head, but Xie Ran waved him away.

Seeing the intentionally sad look on Chen Ji's face, Xie Ran asked again impatiently, "Who are you?"

"It seems that you really don't remember me, classmate Xie Xiaoran?" Chen Ji looked at Xie Ran's reaction with interest after speaking, and found that Xie Ran was only surprised at first, and then returned to normal.Xie Ran remembered the family opposite Xie's old house. Their family had a son who was a few years older than him, and they always liked to call him Xie Xiaoran.

"So it's you, Chen Ji." Xie Ran called out the name lightly, but Chen Ji smiled happily, "It seems that you haven't forgotten me, you didn't know that you didn't recognize me in the bar, and you were so indifferent to me Look, I'm really sad." After Chen Ji finished speaking, he was about to lean on Xie Ran, but Xie Ran took a few steps back.

Looking at him coldly, he asked, "Do you have anything to do with me? It's not that you're idle and bored looking for me to reminisce about the past, right?"

Chen Ji laughed twice, ignoring Xie Ran's guarded eyes, and asked with a smile, "You came here alone?"

"Is it related to you?" Xie Ran raised his chin at him.

"Don't be so hostile to me, okay? Anyway, we are old acquaintances. Although my father and Uncle Xie don't get along, it's their business. It's none of our children's business, right? So, for many years No, you won't lose face." After speaking, Chen Ji raised the wine glass in his hand and drank it down in one gulp.

But Xie Ran stared at him closely the whole time, without any movement, Chen Ji finished drinking, put the wine glass on the plate of the passing waiter, turned around and looked at Xie Ran with a smile.

On the other side, Shen Luo glanced at the audience and found that Shao Jin was being toasted by several bosses, so he walked over quickly.

"Ah Jin!"

Shao Jin turned his head and saw Shen Luo standing behind him in a white suit, and the corners of his eyes were lowered a little.

"How did you come?"

"A friend brought me here. I didn't expect to meet you." Shen Luo explained with a smile.

"Friends?" Shao Jin stared, as if surprised that Shen Luo had friends in Linjiang.

Shen Luo saw Shao Jin's doubts, and explained with a smile, "We met abroad before." After speaking, Shen Luo pretended to look around, then turned to Shao Jin and asked, "Where is Dr. Xie? Didn't come with you?" ?”

"Oh, he's so annoying, he's hiding there." After Shao Jin finished speaking, he pointed to Shen Luo, and then saw a man standing in the corner talking and laughing with Xie Ran. Seeing this scene, Shao Jin Jin's pupils shrank suddenly, the corners of his mouth pressed down slightly, he ignored the people around him, and strode towards Xie Ran's direction.

Du Lin was not far away from Shao Jinbu, saw Shao Jin walking past him, looked back, and immediately screamed in his heart, "No!", and hurriedly followed.

Shen Luo followed behind Shao Jin step by step, a sneer slowly lifted from the corner of his mouth.

Here Chen Ji was still talking to Xie Ran, Xie Ran was obviously a little impatient, he wanted to get rid of him but was held by him, suddenly Chen Ji saw Xie Ran's face change, turned around and saw Shao Jin standing by him behind.Shao Jin received news from Du Lin during the day, knowing that Chen Ji would come here, it doesn't matter if he comes or not, but now he has made his mind on Xie Ran, Shao Jin will not give up easily, thinking this way, Shao Jin looked at his face and felt a little cold.

"Mr. Shao? What a coincidence? I can meet you here too." Chen Ji smiled sincerely, and he didn't care about Shao Jin's expression of wanting to kill him at the moment. If he didn't know who he was, Shao Jin might really Will believe that he really doesn't know that this banquet is just for him.

"Unfortunately, I'm here to pick up someone." After finishing speaking, Shao Jin walked around him directly, walked to Xie Ran, lowered his head to help Xie Ran straighten his collar, and asked in a low voice, "Didn't I tell you to stay well?" ? As soon as I turned my head, the person disappeared."

When Shao Jin was talking, he kept looking at Xie Ran, the distance between the two was very close, and this behavior seemed ambiguous to outsiders.Sure enough, Shen Luo, who walked over with Du Lin, saw this scene, and his face turned black successfully.

Chen Ji looked indifferently at the two people who showed their affection brightly, and finally asked very curiously, "So Xie Ran and Shao are always friends?"

When Shao Jin heard it, he glanced at Xie Ran and asked, "Know him?"

"Yeah." Xie Ran nodded, and then said, "But I'm not familiar."

"Oh." Shao Jin raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Ji, his eyes were full of sarcasm, then he pulled Xie Ran and walked to the other side, not forgetting to say "next time you meet someone you don't know, just ignore it , after all, there is no obligation to waste time with them."

When Chen Ji heard Shao Jin's words, the corner of his mouth twitched, and when Xie Ran passed him by, Chen Ji shouted at Xie Ran, "Xie Ran, ask Uncle Xie for me, I will definitely visit when I have time. "

As soon as the words fell, Xie Ran turned his head and gave him a cold look. This look made Chen Ji's heart skip a beat, and a chill suddenly appeared on the back of his spine. He looked at Xie Ran pretending to be calm, but Xie Ran After just looking at him for a while, he turned his head back and pulled Shao Jin away.

Shao Jin was puzzled, Xie Ran's father had passed away, and who was Uncle Xie that Chen Ji was talking about, and Xie Ran's reaction after listening to that sentence just now, it was obvious that Chen Ji had stepped on his minefield, this Chen Ji seemed to be I know Xie Ran's appearance very well.Thinking of this, Shao Jin turned his head to look at Xie Ran, and found that the latter's face was gloomy, and he seemed to be in a very bad mood.
