Chapter 91

Gu Xi took Jomo in his arm and walked into the hall. At once, it was like being in the palace of the royal family and aristocrats. Looking up, there was an endless 15 storey hall. The towering marble columns on the wall were inlaid with gold foil, and the hall was full of gold-plated seats. Under the reflection of crystal lights, Gu Xi was a little in a trance.

She was born in an opera family and inherited only the cultural heritage, but she didn't walk in the real upper class world after all. The last time I attended Lu Wan's reception with Chi Jingyao, I had a taste of the lives of these celebrities. It was really unique. Today, when she arrived here, she was even more impressed. It was rare for her to see such a beautiful scene.

Jomo whispers to Gu Xi that because this top-level cocktail party consumes a lot of money, it won't invite too many people. About 60 people in city a have received invitations. For example, the Qiao family and the Chi family are also famous in city a, and they get together every year.

With this, Gu Xi became even more nervous. After entering the hall, Jomo looked around, suddenly gently looked around, pointed to several middle-aged people next to the wine column on the far left and said, "my parents are over there. Come with me."

It's also Jomo's ability to come here. Gu Xi didn't refuse and walked with him.

Jomo's father seems to be in his fifties, hale and hearty. He is a kind-hearted old man. Maybe because of his many years in politics, he looks very good at dancing. People around him are talking to him, and he has been listening patiently. Standing next to him should be Jomo's mother, which is much more gentle than Gu Xi imagined. However, such a family can allow Jomo to do what he likes when he is in politics and let him take an artist like himself to a cocktail party. Obviously, he is not an ordinary enlightened person.

Joe Mo walks up to his father and mother and introduces them with a smile: "Mom and Dad, this is the friend I mentioned to you before, Gu Xi."

Gu Xi nodded and smiled implicitly, "good uncle and aunt."

"Oh? This is Gu Xi, who you once said came from Gu Yuanhong, a famous dramatist?"

Gu Xi didn't expect that Jomo would tell his grandfather's name to his father, but his father was particularly happy to hold Gu Xi's hand: "Miss Gu, you don't know, I especially admire Mr. Gu. If you have a chance, please let me visit."

Gu Xi is a little embarrassed. She can't say that she and her mother have been kicked out. She doesn't understand that a famous leading figure like Gu Yuanhong belongs to a pouting nose culture. The most despised officialdom or businessmen rarely communicate with these people. At the beginning, in order to make his parents feel good about Gu Xi, Jomo made special efforts on the cultural man most admired by his father. Where Gu Yuanhong gets now is also a famous gold lettered signboard.

Due to politeness, she nodded and replied, "don't worry, uncle, there must be a chance."

After the introduction, Jomo poured Gu Xi a glass of wine. After she took it, she took a sip. Standing next to everyone and listening to them exchange their achievements this year or the projects that can be developed next year, it was a little boring for a while.

At this time, there was a commotion at the entrance. Gu Xi subconsciously looked at it, and his back stiffened.

Late home.

Basically, she can see at a glance that this is the Chi family.

Because the same man in his fifties at the entrance was wearing a sassy military uniform, full of style but particularly strong, and his face was serious. As soon as he entered the site, he would give people an imposing pressure, but it was this feeling that made Gu Xi react immediately. This man was Chi Jingyao's father.

Chi Jingyao's family is indeed a military family. No wonder his style of behavior is so rigorous. I just don't know how high the level is. Looking at the flattery of the people next to me, it shouldn't be too low.

Joe Mo said in Gu Xi's ear, "that man is Chi Shaojie's father. But Chi Shaojie's mother didn't show up this year. It's strange."

Sure enough... If Gu Xi remembers correctly, Chi Jingyao's mother is still abroad and should not have come back.

Gu Xi suddenly didn't want to see it. She was afraid of seeing the most sad scene, but she couldn't help looking back. Her pupils suddenly enlarged. Chi Jingyao followed Chi Jiansheng. She was dressed in a silver gray suit with handsome eyebrows and eyes and a cold face. The woman standing next to her was... Lu Wan?!

The woman, dressed in a white and elegant cheongsam, leaned on Chi Jingyao's side with a peach and plum face, and hung a happy smile. The smile deeply stabbed Gu Xi, almost subconsciously lowered her head and stopped looking.

It was Lu Wan

There was a trace of regret in her heart. Lu Wan and Chi Jingyao really complement each other when they stand together. They got on the table, like she didn't even have the qualification to step in.

Jomo accidentally picks his lips, "Hey, Chi Jingyao is here too. Let's go and say hello."

Gu Xi stagnated for three seconds and just wanted to answer "no", but Lu Wan's happy smile was like a needle in her heart. She took a deep breath for several times. She said, "OK."

All the way to the entrance of the hall, some people say hello to Jomo from time to time, others constantly praise the beauty of his girlfriend, and those who cast envious eyes. The closer you get to that direction, you can hear a lot of people whispering there.

"I didn't expect Chi Jingyao to come this year."

"Yes. He has never been very harmonious with his father and son, but he is too handsome, too handsome."

"Hey, no matter how handsome it is, it's not yours. Didn't you see the woman standing next to you?"

"Tell you a little gossip. I heard that the two elders of the Chi family have always liked that woman..."

"Oh!" countless people made a sigh and clear voice.

Chi Jiansheng, Chi Jingyao's father, happened to meet Joe Yi, Jomo's father. They stood and began to talk. Even after years of friendship, it seemed that they hadn't seen each other for a long time. Chi Jiansheng's expression softened a little.

Lu Wan smiled, climbed to Chi Jingyao's ear and whispered, "Jingyao, look at the woman around Qiao Shao. She looks a little familiar."

Chi Jingyao's eyes swept over and settled on Gu Xi, who was wearing red makeup. It was rare that he unexpectedly cooled his face.

Gu Xi's legs trembled a little. He took Jomo's hand and suddenly tightened it. His mind was blank. He stared at the two people directly opposite.

Jomo smiled, "Mr. Chi, don't mind if I bring your brother's girlfriend to the scene. I haven't just come back and have no time to invite a girlfriend. Don't tell him."

Lu Wan suddenly covered his mouth and smiled, "brother's girlfriend? Is that so, Jingyao?"

Chi Jingyao slowly floated his lips, "no, I won't tell him."

Joe Murdoch breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't notice that Gu Xi was in a wrong state at this time. He patted Chi Jingyao on the shoulder, "don't you introduce this?"

"Lu Wan." Chi Jingyao said simply.

Joe Mo reaches out his hand and shakes Lu Wan. "Miss Lu is so beautiful. Have you seen my girlfriend? This is Gu Xi."

Gu Xi and Lu Wan looked at each other, and suddenly the other party smiled, which made Gu Xi feel a little bitter. The last reception seemed to be fresh in her mind. She passed Lu Wan with Chi Jingyao's hand in her arm. She was the winner of that one; But this time, it was the bitter wine she tasted. The wine in her hand was unconsciously introduced into her mouth. After the drunkenness surged up, she said with a slight smile: "Miss Lu is so happy. Congratulations."

Bright red and snow-white, the two women looked no inferior in the whole hall.

Jomer joked, "today two people are like red roses and white roses. It's so interesting."

Suddenly there was no words between the four, as if they were trapped in an unspeakable silence. Strangely, Joe Mo said to himself, "I seem to have said something wrong."

Gu Xi stopped the waiter passing by, put the empty glass on the plate and took another one.

After taking the goblet in his hand, Gu cuocai turned around and collided with Chi Jingyao's eyes. He was stunned there for a moment.

Chi Jingyao saw that his father Chi Jiansheng had gone a little far, so he took Lu Wan's waist and said, "excuse me for a minute."

Jomer nodded. "Help yourself."

Gu Gu was about to return to Jomo, but Chi Jingyao whispered, "girl, drink less juice."

His back was as stiff as electricity. Gu Xi looked at the goblet in his hand and drank it all angrily. Jomo said anxiously, "Xiao Xi, drink less wine. Why do you seem to be in a bad mood all of a sudden?"

Gu Xi and Jomo walked to the other corner with fewer people. The back of the man could be accommodated in the field of vision. She tilted her lips slightly and said a slightly sad sentence: "you know, in fact, today is my birthday..."

He told himself that he had no time. He brought other women to the party. If it weren't for jomer, she might still be waiting at home. How silly... Really silly

Joe Mo was stunned, and a trace of surprise appeared on his handsome face. "I knew I would celebrate your birthday."

So that's the difference

Looking at her, Chi Jingyao was talking gently with Lu Wan. Gu Xi was even more sad. She grabbed Jomo's arm, "Jomo?"

Jomo's heart missed a beat. "What's the matter with you, Xiao Xi?"

"Do you... Do you mind hugging me?" Gu Xi didn't know what he was looking for. His panicked eyes made Jomo a little distressed. When the dance music sounded, he held Gu Xi in his arms, wrapped his gradually cold heart with a warm breath, and walked slowly with the music, "happy birthday."

"Thank you."

Different embrace, different feeling, only when Chi Jingyao hugged himself, his heart beat faster. So he is love to him, but he is only love to himself.

Melodious dance music whirled in the field, and sometimes pairs of men and women joined in, drinking and whispering. There were a hundred people at the whole reception, but the whole scene was quiet, without noise or noise. In this environment, Gu Xi also slowly settled down. Qiao mohuan's hand stiffened at her waist, and then slowly patted, "are you better?"
