Skimming the surface
March 21st, 6pm, just in time, Jiang Xia was in a happy mood as he parked his newly picked up Lamborghini in a nearby parking lot, the backfire of the exhaust exploding on the concrete floor of the marina, the taillights flashing a blazing red.He just got his driver's license this year, and was madly obsessed with cars; he took all his cards to buy cars or do maintenance.Modified, serviced, laminated, his car has become an untouchable part of his life.
But tonight, he's not here to show off his new car.
The yacht "Sea Serenade" has long been quietly moored at the pier, with its black and gold hull, waiting for the arrival of the guests.
"Young master, parked here ..." behind another car bodyguard out of the car, hesitant to look at Jiang Xia indifferently closed the door to organize his hair, a brand new Lamborghini sashaying parked in the middle of a group of basic models Audi BMW looks out of place, the ostentatious styling of the car declares that the car is not the best, but it's the only thing that can make the car look good.The ostentatious styling proclaimed the owner's unspoken provocation and unimpeachable strength.
Jiang Xia ignored the bodyguard's question, and after confirming one last time that his hairstyle was perfect, he left in a good mood.His good mood was partly due to the fact that the first drive of the new car was really satisfying, and partly because Jin Ling took the initiative to send him a message that she was almost there.This was the first time she had taken the initiative to contact him on such an occasion, and even if she had just casually mentioned "wait for me", Jiang Xia would be able to savor it for the whole day.
"Let's go!"He took a step towards the yacht, his steps carrying a diffidence, like a loitering second-generation ancestor casually strolling along the road.
In the cabin, Luo Yang sat in the main seat, tapping lightly between his fingers on the desktop, each stroke as if weighing tonight's decision.
You Zhou sat to the side flipping through papers, his face as calm as water.
Hua Ting leaned diagonally on the sofa, fiddling with her cell phone in boredom.She wore a black halter dress over a loose cashmere jacket, and a thin diamond chain around her ankle that shimmered in the dim light.
"By the sound of the movement, it's Jiang Xia."She leaned lazily on the sofa, her tone inaudible, not half as if she wanted to move.
"Hmm."You Zhou returned a single word without lifting his head and said nothing more.
Hua Ting looked at You Zhou with dissatisfaction, but then averted his gaze when You Zhou felt the sight looking back, clearly conveying his dissatisfaction.Youzhou also understand Hua Ting's temperament, which is to blame for his perfunctory but he at least has a response, so he will not give Hua Ting every time to leave a handle for her to vent her emotions, Hua Ting is not a good coaxed in a few words, she is bound to have a premeditated plan every time.
Jiang Xia's familiar figure appeared, his hands in his pockets, stood in the doorway and scanned the cabin with his eyes, briefly stopping for a moment when he saw Hua Ting, and then put away his small disappointment and looked straight at her, revealing a smile of insufficient sincerity: "Yo, Miss Ruan, today is free!Aren't you usually too busy to touch the ground?"
A certain gaze stared searchingly at Hua Ting, and she couldn't help but slightly shiver, her body quietly sitting up a bit straighter as she angrily glared at the originator.
"Ruan Zhining, uncle asked me to keep an eye on you."Hua Ting sheepishly avoided Yu Zhou's eyes, even Luo Yang gave her a rather reminiscent look with the caring attitude of an elder to a younger generation, she forcefully pulled the drama watching Jiang Xia to the door.
"You make a price and seal your mouth."Hua Ting huffed and spoke.Jiang Xia smiled playfully, "Tell me how Jinling is doing these days, if I'm not satisfied with what I say I can go to Brother Cheng Snap and complain."
Hua Ting rubbed his temples and said helplessly, "You mean Xu Zhiwei, right?First of all I told you that you're not allowed to go to Gu Chengchu to talk nonsense, also don't tell others, rot what you know in your stomach, understand?Xu Zhiwei is in trouble, this time is not good, except for that one party, she basically refused all social activities, she is in a delicate situation, really difficult to deal with.Her father married a new wife is not a peaceful, non-said she was pregnant with Xu Zhiwei her father's child, the child is in high school, not than Xu Zhiwei a few years younger than you about the same age.But you know uncle Xu so many years only Xu Zhiwei's mother succeeded in giving birth to a child, and now give Xu Zhiwei added a brother, uncle Xu actually also believe, people are picked up home, the stepmother all day to flaunt, hate to call the whole world, Xu Zhiwei's status and value also followed a sharp turn down.I advise you also do not go to add to her mess, this period of time she is also not good, you go instead will only help."
