V5.Chapter 1

During the winter vacation, tomorrow is the new year. It's not easy to be a mother.

Xia Shao's friends came to congratulate her on her engagement tonight, but they were all ready to go home tomorrow. When the banquet dispersed, the party went out and discussed going home.

Liu Cuicui has to go back to Hong Kong for training and plans to go home the day before the Chinese New Year. After learning that Liu Cuicui is the hair of Xia Shao, Zhan Ruonan classified it as his own person, and said that Liu Cuicui will be covered by her in Hong Kong in the future. She will deal with any difficulties! Liu Cuicui once refused Xia Shao's excessive care for her, and she just took care of Zhan Ruonan. This is never pretentious, but everyone's life should go by themselves. If you have noble people to help you in the most difficult times, you only need to be grateful, but it doesn't mean that you have to reach out to noble people every time you encounter difficulties in the future. Such a person is not worth helping. She doesn't want to be such a person. However, she only met Zhan Ruonan tonight, so she proposed to cover her, which easily attracted Liu Cuicui. Zhan Ruonan and Qu ran both want to go back to Hong Kong. The three are on the same road, so they simply agreed to go together tomorrow.

Yuanze, Liu Xianxian and Hu Jiayi all wanted to go back to Qingdao, so they also made an appointment to go with them. Xiong Huaixing and Hu Guangjin also returned to Qingdao. As soon as they left the door of the banquet hall, they took advantage of the time to go to the door and talked with the military and political dignitaries present. Both of them are businessmen. The opportunity to play with this big man is very precious. Of course, we will not miss it.

During the conversation, a senior member of the Jiang family took the initiative to shake hands with Hu Guangjin, which flattered him. The man is in his forties and well maintained. Now he still looks very handsome, not to mention when he was young. Hu Guangjin looked familiar at the man, but he couldn't remember who he was. He winked at Xiong Huaixing when shaking hands. [

Xiong Huaixing's eyes were straight on one side. He reacted and quickly said with a warm smile: "Oh! Minister Shi, nice to meet you!"

Xiong Huaixing's hearty laughter was very loud in the hall. Hu Guangjin next to him tried to think about which minister in the national department was surnamed Shi. Liu Xianxian, who walked in front and hooked up with Hu Jiayi, suddenly froze.

She suddenly turned her head and saw the man Hu Guangjin was talking to. Her face was cold and she turned and strode over.

"Uncle Hu, go back and have a rest early. You have to go back early tomorrow." Liu Xianxian took Hu Guangjin away whether he agreed or not.

Hu Guangjin was stunned. Sheng Sheng was pulled out of the banquet hall by her. Xiong Huaixing was embarrassed. He turned back and quickly apologized: "sorry, minister Shi, children are not sensible. Looking drunk, you should have drunk too much at night. Ha ha..."

Xiong huaixingdu blushed when he said this. Xia Shao's friends are almost the same age as her. How can they be 20 years old? He was a little nervous when he said that a 20-year-old girl was a child.

Fortunately, the other party was not angry, but smiled and waved his hands. He looked very kind, but his eyes looked away somehow.

In the distance, Hu Guangjin had long been dragged down the stairs by Liu Xianxian, and Hu Jiayi trotted behind him. Hu Guangjin didn't even have a chance to speak all the way. When he arrived at the door, he suddenly stopped and patted his forehead: "Ouch! Minister Shi... Isn't it Shi Qiusheng?"

If this person is seen on TV, Hu Guangjin must be able to reflect who it is, but he can't see it face-to-face

Here, Hu Guangjin sighed at the door. There, a group of people were walking down the stairs, chatting while walking, and the atmosphere was warm.

Zhou Mingxu walked beside Miao Yan, grabbed her hair and smiled, "well... They've all found company to go home. Xiaoshao's family is celebrating the new year in Beijing this year. They won't go back. I'll go back to Dongshi alone and you'll go back to southern province alone. It's really difficult this time."[

Zhou Mingxu smiled foolishly. After laughing, he wanted to punch himself. However, he felt that the word "difficult brother" was inappropriate here. Miao Yan and he were not brothers. She was a weak girl.

Miao Yan looked at Zhou Mingxu's simple and honest giggle and smiled. She was so old that she had few friends, and there were no friends of the opposite sex. Zhou Mingxu still wanted to think about it. Miao Chenghong felt that it was good to find an official background. He was the largest jade merchant in China, with a fortune of 10 billion. His daughter married into the official family, and the other party would not treat her badly. Moreover, with an official background, the business of the family would be better in the future Make it easier. After her daughter takes over, even if she can't do business well, no one will dare to bully her.

The Gu family is a good choice. His father is an official and his son is in business. He must be a young man with good ability to do import and export trade. This is just right. He has both an official background and business ability. In the future, if his daughter-in-law can't take care of his estate, it's the same as taking care of his son-in-law. Although Gu Chengxi hasn't seen him for ten years, he and his daughter will pick him up first after the new year Touch and see if the two young people can talk.

The valley official obviously also attaches great importance to Miao Chenghong's position and assets in the business world. Although Miao Yan is not very beautiful, the external conditions are incidental to the marriage, and she doesn't attach much importance to it. Miao Yan will graduate from a famous school in the future, and her education and background will also be good.

Obviously, both parents were very satisfied, so it was finalized. After the new year, let the children of both sides contact and have a look.

Miao Yan listened and lowered her head slowly. She was only 20 years old and had never seriously fallen in love. She was about to embark on the road of marriage, which inevitably made her sad. But she could understand her father and knew that her father lived for herself. Being the daughter of the Miao family was her happiness. If she didn't have huge assets at home and her father had connections for half his life, her Yin would be very sad Yang Yan has a way to seal it, but she can't find the materials needed to seal Yin and Yang eyes. She can never forget how her father asked for the Dharma body salt. At that time, the eminent monk in the temple refused to see him, so he didn't even go home for the new year. In the coldest time, he insisted on fasting in the temple, worshipping the Buddha, paying homage to the mountains and lakes, donating money to rebuild the temple, and moved the eminent monks in the temple with piety[

Her mother died when she was very young, and her father never married. He was afraid that she would get along with her stepmother because she was timid. He devoted himself to her. Now she can gradually live a normal life. She can no longer be capricious for herself.

Miao Yan stood beside Miao Chenghong until the officials of the sex Valley went to talk to others. The father and daughter turned and prepared to go to the door.

Zhou Mingxu stood in the corridor and looked at Miao Yan. He didn't react yet.

When Miao Yan saw Zhou Mingxu, she smiled and said to her father, "Dad, this is my friend Zhou Mingxu in the History Department of Jingcheng University."

Miao Chenghong rarely saw his daughter have such a bright smile, and didn't expect her to make friends with the opposite sex. He immediately looked at Zhou Mingxu carefully and saw that he was tall and strong, a little naive, and didn't look like a boy with a bad mind. Then he stretched out his hand and smiled: "Hello, Xiao Zhou. I'm Miao Yan's father. The child is usually shy. Didn't he give you less trouble at school?"

When Zhou Mingxu saw Miao Chenghong's outstretched hand, he reacted. He shook hands with him quickly, but his mouth was stupid, "uncle, uncle, no, no..."

Seeing that the young man couldn't even speak well, Miao Chenghong didn't frown, but smiled and relieved. Such a child didn't have any bad thoughts at first sight. He was more relieved to make friends with his daughter. He immediately asked Zhou Mingxu to go out and asked, "Xiao Zhou is a history department? Where is his home?"

"East, east city."

"Dongshi? Oh, it's a fellow townsman with Xia Dong."

"HMM." Zhou Mingxu just nodded and stared at Miao Yan with straight eyes.

Miao Yan added, "Xiaoshao and he are very young. They have grown up in a village. Has dad heard of Professor Zhou Bingyan? That's Mingxu's second grandfather."

"Yo! The younger generation of old Zhou?" Miao Chenghong was a little surprised. He was even more relieved when he heard that Zhou Mingxu and Xia Shao grew up together.

Xia Shao's friend, his character can't be worse.

Miao Chenghong had a good impression of Zhou Mingxu. When he came to the door, he offered to let him take his own car back. Zhou Mingxu didn't know why, so he refused, saying that he would go back with yuanze.

When Miao Chenghong's car drove away, Zhou Mingxu stood in the cold night and looked at the car far away. His brain was blank. Meng husband married: the grassland queen arrived.

At this time, yuanze came to pat him and asked him to take Xiong Huaixing's car back to school. Zhou Mingxu nodded and walked into the car silently.

In the car in front, Hu Guangjin was sitting in the driver's seat, while Liu Xianxian and Hu Jiayi were sitting behind. Liu Xianxian turned and looked at the night scene outside. Her face sank in the dark car and couldn't see her expression clearly.

This night, each has his own mind.

Xia Shao is the same.

Xu Kangguo was escorted back to the red wall courtyard by a special car. The Xu family also went home and made an appointment to spend the new year together tomorrow.

Xu Tianyin drove the car and followed Huaxia group's car to return Xia's family to the hotel. Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan didn't know that Xu Tianyin and Xia Shao usually lived in Xu Tianyin's villa. They thought Xia Shao lived in Huayuan's private club. When they arrived at the hotel, seeing that it was late, Xia Zhiyuan said to their daughter: "Why don't you open another room? Don't let Xiao Xu take you back so late. I drank some wine at night. It's not safe to drive on the road."

As soon as the Xia family heard this, they all felt it was reasonable. Xia Zhitao hurried to the service desk and planned to open a room.

"No need." Xia Shao went over and said to the staff at the service desk, "sorry, we haven't discussed it yet."

Xia Zhitao was stunned. Li Juan came up and asked, "you child, why do you have to go back to the club so late?"

"Tomorrow's employee's holiday, I'll have something to arrange when I go back. If my family can't get used to staying in the hotel for the new year, they can stay in the club for a few days." Xia Shao originally planned to do so. It's not a lie. He just smiled and looked at Xu Tianyin. "Moreover, we have something to say on the way."

"Oh, it's just engaged. It's like glue?" Jiang Qiulin said with a smile.

Li Juan pulled Xia Shao aside and asked, "Mom can tell you, don't mess around when you're engaged!" she forgot how happy she was when she saw the pair of little clothes at night.

Xia Shao smiled and nodded to ensure that he and Xu Tianyin returned to the car.

When the door closed, the man leaned over to fasten her seat belt, but this time he seemed more serious than usual. After fastening it, he cleaned it up silently several times. But he just didn't look at her. He didn't know whether he dared or something in his heart.

Xia Shao looked and didn't ask. She didn't intend to distract him when she drove on the road. We'll wait until we get back.

Naturally, the two returned to Xu Tianyin's villa. Xia Shao could arrange the affairs in the club with a phone call. There was no need to go back at all.

Back at the villa, Xia Shao planned to take Xu Tianyin to the sofa and ask him what was going on tonight, but Xu Tianyin hugged her as soon as he entered the door.

Xia Shao was stunned. There was no light in the room. The atmosphere was so quiet that she could hear the man's deep breathing sound, like a suppressed beast growling. Xia Shao's original questions were all stuffy in her chest. She sighed, asked nothing, just raised her hand and gently stroked his back. Her comfort made the man's hug tighter and her breathing more heavy.

"It's all right." I don't know how long it took. His voice sank painfully in the dark.

Xia Shao was distressed and said, "elder martial brother, you said you didn't lie to me."

Her voice was as soft as water, without criticism. She knows him too well. In this world, no one loves her more than the man in front of him. He chose to say it's okay. There must be his reason. And his reason will never be based on hurting himself.

But she still wanted to know what had happened. She wanted to face it with him, no matter what.

Xu Tianyin's body was stiff, his shoulders seemed covered with frost and snow, and he didn't move for a long time. I don't know how long it was before his low voice came again from the dark, "HMM."

There was only one word, but Xia Shao was relieved. He developed bravely: the chief's concubine.

"Tomorrow," he said suddenly, "rest first."

Xia Shao neither refused nor pressed questions. Although she wanted to know immediately, she still gave him time. When he was bearing the pain and emotion she didn't know, she didn't want to pass on her emotion to him and let him bear it. She chose to accompany, wait and give him time.

They took a bath and went to bed. He was used to holding her to sleep. Tonight, she took the initiative to hold him tight. She just wanted him to know when she was there.

Xu Tianyin was obviously stiff when she touched, but then he tentatively stretched out his hand. He felt a little careful. He was afraid that if he touched her, she would disappear. Xia Shao saw him like this. Where could he sleep? Even if she is tired today, her eyes are astringent and she can't sleep.

But before long, she felt a comfortable vitality coming from behind. Xia Shao was stunned and raised his eyes, facing Xu Tianyin's deep and dark eyes.

He didn't speak, but his palm gently rubbed behind her, and the vitality poured into her body along her back, adjusting the vitality of her confusion caused by worry. Xia Shao smiled gently and gathered in Xu Tianyin's arms. It seemed that he never hesitated and stiff before when he didn't find her close. She put her head on his heart and listened to his heavy heartbeat.

The temperature in his heart was still so hot, accompanied by a deep heartbeat, which reassured her even in the atmosphere like tonight.

In order to reassure him, she closed her eyes and adjusted her breathing, but never really fell asleep. I thought I couldn't sleep, but I stayed up until dawn. Somehow I was confused for a while.

She slept very shallow, but Xu Tianyin got out of bed.

With her current cultivation accomplishments, few people in the world can move around her without being found by her. However, his cultivation accomplishments are equivalent to hers. He has walked in the dark for many years and practiced his instinct of walking with one voice. If there is anyone in the world who can walk around without being found by her, it is probably only him.

Xu Tianyin got out of bed and went out of the room. Seeing that it was almost dawn outside, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Hello, master."

……

When Xia Shao woke up, it was just dawn. She almost woke up as soon as she opened her eyes.

"Elder martial brother?"

The cold beside her made Xia Shao turn over, get up from bed, go downstairs as fast as possible and have a look at the villa.

The car is there, the man is not.

Xu Tianyin didn't know where he had gone.

Xia Shao had never been so anxious. She was more annoyed that she kept awake all night last night. How did she sleep in the early morning? But this chagrin was only a moment. Xia Shao suppressed his emotion and hurriedly called Xu Tianyin. The moment she picked up her cell phone, she gave a meal.

There is a note under the mobile phone, which is written by Xu Tianyin.

"Buy breakfast and you'll come back. Don't worry, wait for me."

Xia Shao's heart immediately put down and stared at the note for a long time. God knows that several possibilities passed in her mind just now. I thought he might just go out to buy breakfast, as usual. But maybe he really doesn't know where to go. If he really goes out to deal with something, he may shut down and something unexpected may happen.

Fortunately, he knew she would be nervous and left a note. Otherwise, she's really scared.

Exhale a long breath and Xia Shao puts down her mobile phone. But as soon as it was put down, the bell rang.

The phone call was from Tang Zongbo. The old man's voice was a little heavy. In his memory, Xia Shao seemed to have never heard master's so dignified voice. It seemed that he was really angry.

"Xiaoshaozi, come here."
