Chapter 34 Dinner Party
She sat up and glanced across the room. Xia Linjiu was lying at the end of the bed, with her bent legs just pressing her feet.
She slowly withdrew her foot, very carefully, but still managed to get the person off. Xia Linjiu rubbed her eyes and stood up,
"Are you awake?"
Xia Linchu nodded and said nothing,
Xia Linjiu stretched out, got off the foot of the bed, and stared at her face. She seemed a little worried, "How are you? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
As if remembering the scene last night, Xia Linchu also got off the bed and made room, "I'm fine, you can sleep a little longer."
Xia Linjiu smiled and rubbed her head, "Don't worry, I slept at night."
After going back to the room and lying down for a while, I was still worried about Xia Linchu's condition, so I just came over to watch over him. I felt sleepy looking at it,
Xia Linjiu yawned and left. Xia Linchu looked at his back and walked to the bathroom with a change of clothes for a long time.
Looking in the mirror and seeing the solidified blood stains in front of her, she dropped the hand holding the toothpaste.
……
When Xia Linchu packed up and went downstairs, the two people downstairs had already started eating,
Shen Xiyan is wearing a beige sweater today, holding a spoon with his slender fingers, and is loading rice slowly,
Hearing the noise, he raised his eyes and glanced this way. He looked up and down for a moment with slightly narrowed eyes, then looked back calmly,
As indifferent and distant as ever,
Xia Linchu felt that he was far away from him,
As soon as I sat down, there was a plate in front of me, with a rolled pancake on it, a fried egg, and a small bowl of pumpkin porridge made from something unknown,
The sweet smell penetrates into the mouth and nose instantly,
Xia Linchu raised his eyes and saw that Shen Xiyan had a calm expression. He skillfully rolled up a piece of cake with his well-proportioned and slender fingers and ate it as if no one else was watching.
She thanked her in a low voice, took a bite of the cake, couldn't help but nodded, and looked at the person opposite, as if she didn't believe that this person could still eat the fireworks of the world,
Next to her, Xia Linjiu was still yawning from time to time. Her hair had not been combed, and there were still a few hairs on it. Her whole body was wilted, and she was not interested in the sumptuous breakfast in front of her.
Holding hands, lazily poking at the contents of the porridge,
In a blink of an eye, Xia Linchu had finished eating the whole cake and wanted to reach out,
His eyes widened and he wanted to stop him, but one hand moved faster than him,
Shen Xiyan said nothing, just put the plate further away,
Xia Linjiu breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly stirred the porridge in Xia Linchu's bowl, blew it cool and brought it to her mouth, as if coaxing a child,
"Hey, let's drink some porridge to fill our stomachs first."
"..."
He admitted that the captain’s cooking was quite delicious,
But no matter how delicious it is, he doesn't dare to take any chances!
……
When I got home in the afternoon, when I got off the car, Ms. Lin pulled Xia Linchu for a while and felt strange,
Xia Linjiu drove her car and disappeared to nowhere,
When I came back in the evening, I mysteriously put a package in Xia Linchu's room,
A few people followed and took a look, only to find that it was a fluffy pillow. It was very long and taller than Xia Linchu.
Lin Wanyue smiled when she saw it, shook her head, and pulled Xia Minghan downstairs,
The brother and sister have a good relationship, and she is happy to see them.
Xia Linchu picked up the round pillow and hugged it in her arms. Looking at Xia Linjiu's expression asking for praise, she raised a faint smile at the corner of her mouth,
"Why did you suddenly think of buying this?"
"Of course it's because my baby sister likes it!" Xia Linchu's smile that had not yet completely risen was suppressed by the next words,
"Yesterday you hugged the captain so tightly that I couldn't pull you away. You don't need to guess to know that you are still the same as when you were a child. You like to sleep with things in your arms."
"..."
"...What?"
Her expression disappeared visibly.
……
For several days, the brother and sister didn't go out. Xia Minghan was busy with company affairs. If he hadn't seen people during breakfast, he would have thought that he was living in the company.
Lin Wanyue was not idle either. She was eating in different ways every day to observe Xia Linchu's acceptability.
Xia Linchu didn't let Xia Linjiu tell her family about what happened at Shen Xiyan's house that day,
Having said that, there are only unnecessary worries,
And since that time, she has had no more physical problems. It can be seen with the naked eye that her complexion is obviously much better than before.
Not only has my appetite improved, but my food intake has also increased a lot,
In addition to live streaming, Xia Linjiu takes Xia Linchu to play games every day,
He found that his sister was really lucky, she could steal dragons at any time, and she looked more like TiMi's daughter than Zhao Yun.
……
As the New Year approaches, the group holds a dinner party every year at this time,
But this year it seems to be particularly grand, with many celebrities in the industry invited.
Xia Linchu stood on the second floor. One night, he felt like he was in a strange place,
The family has changed from its usual frugality, and the entire hall has been decorated magnificently. The elegant and complicated chandeliers emit colorful warm light, and the neatly arranged European-style long tables are filled with exquisite food.
Even the garden is covered with a soft, hand-woven gold and precious red carpet,
Xia Linchu looked on indifferently, stood for a while, and was pulled into the room by Ms. Lin who suddenly appeared.
Take out the dress you prepared in advance, put on makeup,
She was very cooperative throughout the whole process
Looking at those emotionless eyes, Lin Wanyue felt proud and distressed at the same time.
Before evening, guests arrived in droves
Xia Linjiu had long been dragged by Xia Minghan to entertain guests,
The blood of the Xia family is weak. Mr. Xia passed away early due to illness. Xia Minghan is the only one in his generation.
And Xia Minghan only has one son and one daughter,
Xia Minghan, the eldest son of Nuo Da's family business, was eventually inherited, so everyone's attitude towards Xia Linjiu was considered a compliment,
There are some who are a bit careful, secretly or covertly pushing their daughters or female companions forward. If they are really lucky, they can become famous in no time!
Xia Linjiu is dressed in a pure black suit, has broad shoulders and long legs, is clean and handsome, and always has a faint smile on her lips,
Unlike the enthusiasm and flamboyance on the field, his temperament at this time is more calm, and he is polite but not close to the woman who comes close to him,
Even so, the attention surrounding him has not diminished,
Xia Linjiu responded calmly, but the smile in her eyes did not have much warmth,
This is why he dislikes the business world.
In the crowd, a woman in a white dress stood in the corner with a mask on her face. She looked at the women surrounding Xia Linjiu and tightened her hand holding the wine glass.
"I didn't bring you here to let you have those unrealistic fantasies."
The woman's body trembled, and an extra person suddenly appeared next to her. The man was wearing a dark blue suit. He greeted everyone who came and went with ease, while lowering his voice,
The words she said made the woman's palms clenched tightly,
"You said that you had a good relationship with the only daughter of the Xia Group in the past. I will help you get what you want. Next,
Looking forward to your performance,”
The man raised his wine glass and touched hers gently, taking a sip with a smile.
