The banquet hall downstairs is noisy and lively.

The upstairs is quiet.

Qin Shuang spoke in confusion: "Did I just hear the hallucinations? How do I feel that there is a sound in this room? What kind of room is this?"

Gao Yanchen: "The utility room."

Qin Shuang shouted: "Sister Xi, are you inside?"

Xue Xi: "..."

I hid here for more than 20 minutes and was taken advantage of by this man, but in the end he was still discovered?

She looked at the man in front of her, really wanting to make him disappear!

It was the first time that Xiang Huai saw the child's uneasy appearance. His mind just disappeared. He couldn't help but let out a low laugh, "Hey."

Xue Xi glared at him and lowered her voice: "Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"

Xiang Huai chuckled again: "Not afraid."

Seeing the girl's eyes widened and annoyed, like a cat with fried hair, made him inexplicably happy.

Xiang Huai patted her head comfortably, and after suppressing his evil thoughts, he said in a low voice, "I will draw them away."

After speaking, he pushed the door and walked out, without giving Xue Xi time to stop.

Is this person reliable?

Xue Xi thought so, and heard Qin Shuang’s exclamation from outside the door: "Hey, sister Xi’s boyfriend? What are you doing in the utility room?"

Xiang Huai said casually, "Oh, play with a kitten."

Qin Shuang: "Cat? Where is it? Let me see."

Xiang Huai stopped outside the door and refused to let in: "Climbed out of the window."

Xue Xi: "..."

Who believes such a mentally retarded reason? And how does it feel that he is calling her a kitten?

But Qin Shuang who was outside the door believed, "What a pity. But Brother Chen, do you still have cats in your house?"

Xue Xixin said again, shouldn't he show his stuff?

Outside the door, Gao Yanchen's raised phoenix eyes stared at the utility room thoughtfully, and immediately looked at Xianghuai. The man is like a satisfying beast, with his slender fingers gently rubbing his mouth, suggesting that the action is too obvious.

Gao Yanchen's hand holding the phone slightly strained his cheek.

After a full five seconds, he opened his mouth in a pun, "I hope this cat belongs to my family."

Qin Shuang understood in seconds: "Wildcat?"

Gao Yanchen didn't speak any more, turned and walked: "Go back first."

Qin Shuang: "Don't wait for Sister Xi?"

Gao Yanchen's tone was impatient: "She will come when it's time to come."

Qin Shuang was afraid of Gao Yanchen in his bones, but he was unwilling to follow him. When the two entered Gao Yanchen's room, Gao Yanchen paused and suddenly turned his head, his eyes collided with Xiang Huai in the air.

Xiang Huai raised his eyebrows, his sharp eyebrows were cold, but the corners of his lips evoked a smile of the winner.

Gao Yanchen's phoenix eyes darkened, and his lips tightened.

After he and Qin Shuang entered the room, Xiang Huai looked back.

He remembered the sentence just said by the young boy, "I think she might find a place to write the questions more reliably", and his eyes became colder.

Hey, I know her very well.

If this is the case, then of course you have to take an oath of sovereignty.

At this time, the utility room door was pushed open, and Xue Xi walked out. She glared at Xiang Huai and said with a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, there are wild cats nearby, otherwise it will be exposed."

A smile flashed in Xiang Huai's dark brown eyes. The kid is so cheating!

It was too late, and the banquet was about to end. Xue Xi did not go to Gao Yanchen's room again. After replying to Qin Shuang a message, she went downstairs first.

When she left, Xiang Huaishan entered the study.

Elder Gao waited for a long time, when he saw him standing up straight, respectfully shouting: "Xiang Shuai!"

Xiang Huai nodded, and sat down on the main sofa. He opened his mouth as if casually, "I saw Gao Yanchen."

Old man Gao shook his body and hurriedly said: "He is just an ignorant kid who can't do anything, he is poor in study, has a violent temper, and he has a bad temper every day..."

Xiang Huai's eyes fell slightly, making Old Gao's voice smaller and smaller, and finally he opened his mouth as if praying: "Xiang Shuai, there is only one grandson left in the Gao family now. I just want him to live without asking. How much he has done, this is also his parents' greatest wish!"

Hearing the words of his parents, Xiang Huai stretched his jaw.

After a while, he slowly spoke: "I didn't think I saw him."

Old Gao breathed a sigh of relief, grateful, and choked in his voice: "Thank you."

As soon as the two words came out, the room fell silent.

After a while, Xiang Huai spoke again with a cold and solemn voice: "If you have any difficulties, you can report."

Old man Gao smiled: "No! You gave all the properties of Bencheng to the Gao family. My old man is getting older. Even if you close your eyes and mess around with the money, it's enough."

The atmosphere relaxed in vain.

After Gao finished speaking, he asked: "Do you have any mission in Bencheng this time? If you need the Gao family, I will die."

Xiang Huai waved his hand: "No."

After speaking, the person who has always talked less and coldly added: "I'm just here to chase my girlfriend and take a vacation by the way."

Elder Gao: "..." Why do you want to feed dog food?

And where are you taking a vacation "by the way"? Are you taking a vacation "specially" to chase your girlfriend, right? Wait, chase your girlfriend... Does this mean you haven't caught up yet? ?

-

After the long-awaited banquet was over, the wealthy family in Bencheng seemed to be calm again.

The next day was Sunday. Unfortunately, Bincheng International High School was closed. Xue Xi got up early to read and went downstairs when it was time. He planned to carry breakfast to the grocery store as usual.

But when he arrived at the restaurant, he saw Ye Li sitting there in a daze.

She was wearing an elegant cheongsam, her look was a bit lonely, staring at the table position, she didn't react until Xue Xi approached: "Xixi? Is it time? I will prepare breakfast for you."

She entered the kitchen, packed breakfast for her with Xiaofang, and handed it to Xue Xi.

Xue Xi did not leave immediately. Instead, she stood next to Ye Li, and the indifferent person asked: "Mom, what's on your mind?"

Ye Li sighed. She didn't intend to say it, but she couldn't find anyone to talk to, so she couldn't help but said, "Xixi, do you think your mother is very useless?"

Xue Xi shook his head and replied slowly and seriously: "Everyone has value."

Ye Li lowered her eyes: "But I won't help your father socializing, and I don't know how to do wife diplomacy. Apart from painting, I am useless. And painting..."

At this point, she pressed her lips.

When she was young, she was famous all over the world, and her paintings were hard to find. Later, because Xixi was lost, she put down her paintbrush.

Recently, she drew two paintings and put them in a friend's studio for sale, but they still can't sell them.

Is it really like Mrs. Xue said, she is not good enough?

Xue Xi comforted her and got into the car with breakfast.

At this time, the mobile phone WeChat rang, she picked it up and took a look, and found that someone in the long-lost "big guys" had said something:

Painter: [Does anyone know the artist Ye Li? 】

PS: To the handsome and not to show off, hahaha~ ask for recommendation tickets, friends!
