match in black

Chapter 21: Chapter 21

The moonlight was thin, and the hall on the first floor of "Wancheng Building" was brightly lit. There were a large number of men and women in formal attire, talking eagerly while sipping red wine. Waiters in black uniforms pushed the dining car among the crowd. Difficult to shuttle through.This five-star hotel, which has always been prohibitively expensive, was unexpectedly booked up tonight. Celebrities rarely gathered together, and the bustling scene abruptly turned this resplendent banquet hall into a peak The vegetable market during the time period.

Lin Qian took out a glass of red wine from the waiter's tray, took a sip and politely thanked the young waiter.Every year on Gu Shenzhi's birthday, the Gu family will have a big banquet for their guests.This year's banquet has a lot of people. I don't know if it's because Gu Shenzhi has gradually handed over the affairs of the Gu family to Lin Qian and Gu Jingxi in the past few years, and there is a faint tendency to abdicate. The forces of all parties are eager to find the right time to find out False and true, and the birthday party happened to be an excellent opportunity to spy on information.

Gu Shenzhi stood at the upper part of the hall, still wearing the same Chinese Tang suit. This man had an indifferent complexion and a tall and straight figure. The years had hardly left any traces on him. Looking from a distance, his appearance was the same as that of more than ten years ago. It was no different when he suddenly appeared at the door of Lin Qian's house before.

Gu Shenzhi didn't like to drink, he only brought a cup of hot tea, surrounded by a group of people - he has always been the target of various forces vying to win him over, and everyone crowded their heads to make a good impression in front of him .Probably because he is used to being surrounded by people as soon as he shows up, his expression is calm, without showing the slightest personal likes and dislikes, he does not comment on the high-spirited talk of the people around him, and only takes a sip of hot tea now and then.

Wang Meng followed Gu Shenzhi every step of the way, his sharp eagle-like eyes under the sunglasses scanned the surroundings vigilantly.He has been with Gu Shen for 20 years. Although he is unattractive and taciturn, in the bodyguard industry, his name, together with the legends of the year, is still widely praised by younger generations.

Lin Qian drank the red wine in his hand silently, the dark red liquid slipped from his throat into his stomach, leaving a long-lasting sweetness on the tip of his tongue.There was a stream of people passing by in the hall, but his sight accurately caught Gu Jingxi's cold silhouette.

Gu Jingxi was wearing a dark blue tuxedo double-breasted evening dress, the collar of the white shirt inside was buttoned up properly, and a well-made handmade bow tie was just right between his collars.The well-fitting trousers set off his slender waist and long legs. With a slight movement, the silver trim on both sides of the trousers flashed a dark and elegant light under the light.He is good-looking, and his everyday casual clothes are enough to attract attention. This time, when he puts on formal clothes, he looks like he is shining.

As soon as he appeared, he attracted the attention of almost all the young girls on the field. The bold ones stared at him openly, and the timid ones couldn't help but use the cover of their companions to secretly look at him.But Gu Jingxi himself was unaware of the huge damage he had caused in the hearts of many girls, probably because he was annoyed by those naked eyes staring at him, he raised his eyes a little impatiently, and his eyes flickered in an instant, and suddenly Even the glittering crystal chandelier on the dome is overshadowed.

Seeing his impatience, Lin Qian knew that this person never liked crowded and noisy places, and this time he had to come because his father was celebrating his birthday.To be honest, he didn't like this kind of occasion very much, but he was a little more restrained than Gu Jingxi, and he didn't express his happiness and anger so straightforwardly on his face.He smiled, and just about to get another glass of red wine to relieve his boredom, he saw Gu Jingxi cast his gaze over accurately, raised his beautiful pointed chin, and there was a hint of warning in his eyes.

Others didn't understand what Gu Jingxi was staring at, but Lin Qian immediately understood what he meant - his shoulder injury was just right, and it was really not suitable to drink too much at this time.

Okay, okay, don't drink if you don't drink.Lin Qian resigned to his fate and raised his hand above his head, begging for mercy, but the raised corner of his mouth revealed the smile that the master couldn't hide in his heart at the moment.Gu Jingxi has always been ignorant of his unconditional words. When he met his comforting eyes like coaxing a child, as if he had been choked, he turned his head away angrily and stopped looking at him.

Lin Qian lay in bed for a month because of a shoulder injury, and Gu Jingxi stayed with him for a month.Lin Qian's residence is hidden. Among the few people who know his residence, the four managers have their own affairs waiting to be dealt with every day, and only Gu Jingxi has this leisure.

After Gu Shenzhi gradually delegated power, he became the direct person in charge of No. [-] Warehouse and No. [-] Yard, but Wang Wenyan and Zhang Hanqin have always handled their affairs in a safe manner, and there are almost no things in these two places that need to alarm Gu Jingxi.Unlike Gu Jingxi, there are so many things that Lin Qian needs to handle personally every day, and Lin Qian's rapid recovery has become the top priority.In this way, Gu Jingxi inevitably took on the job of taking care of Lin Qian.

Gu Jingxi didn't stay overnight at Lin Qian's house either. He came early every day and brought a bucket of steaming porridge for Lin Qian's breakfast.Every time Lin Qian drank the porridge, he felt from the bottom of his heart that Mama Rong's cooking skills were getting better and better.

It is said to take care of Lin Qian, but why does Lin Qian need Gu Jingxi to take care of him?Help Lin Qian fix three meals a day, and then change his medicine, Gu Jingxi's daily tasks are completed.It's not that Lin Qian doesn't want to be taken care of by Gu Jingxi - this is a rare opportunity for him to spend more time with Gu Jingxi in his many years.It's just that he is not willing to let Gu Jingxi run back and forth every day. He has habitually taken the role of protector since he was a child. In Lin Qian's perception, Gu Jingxi is the one who needs to work hard to protect.

Gu Jingxi is an indelible thought in his mind for many years, and it is also an illusion that he can't touch no matter what.

He is black, while Gu Jingxi is white, one color value is 0, the other is 255, separated by a whole colorful world.

Lin Qian took a deep breath and stared fixedly at Gu Jingxi in the distance. Even if he was standing in the corner, the dazzling light on his body almost burned Lin Qian's eyes.Gu Jingxi frowned habitually, the corners of his mouth inadvertently twitched because of something funny, and when he was thinking about something, he involuntarily took on a detached look of not getting close to strangers... Every little movement, every little expression, he took seriously It is engraved in my heart, as if if I don't hurry up, I will never see it again.

"Everyone is invited to come today. Apart from attending my birthday banquet, I have another important announcement." The banquet was in full swing, Gu Shenzhi walked to the top of the banquet hall, and spoke with a calm face.He seemed to have stripped off his emotional mobilization organs from his bones, and there was no excitement in his expression when facing his birthday party that only came once a year.

When he spoke, the noisy crowd fell silent, and as soon as he finished speaking, the curious crowd started whispering again, wondering what the important thing he was talking about was.

Is the Gu family going to make any big moves in business recently?I heard that Wang Wenyan's mood has been unstable recently. A person who has never missed a deal in the shopping malls has actually screwed up two big deals in a row.

Did the No. [-] warehouse finally find a new receiver?After Li Jin disappeared for no reason, the position of manager of the No. [-] warehouse has always been vacant, and this mysterious vacant position has always been an enduring after-dinner talk on the Tao.

Or guess more, Gu Shenzhi is going to abdicate immediately?It is rumored that he has almost handed over all the affairs under his jurisdiction to the two children. This Mr. Lin is really favored, and he can actually make Gu Shenzhi treat his legitimate young son as nothing, and instead hand over half of the Gu family to an illegitimate son... …

Everyone talked and discussed for a long time, and the more they talked, the more they felt that the last one was the most likely.In the past few years, Gu Shenzhi has hardly been involved in the affairs of the Gu family, and Gu Jingxi holds the Baidao business in his hand, so there is nothing to fight for, but Lin Qian, an "illegitimate child" with a very mysterious background, is said to be polite, but he is very ruthless in his actions Resolute, in just a few years, he quickly wiped out several forces that were hostile to the Gu family.Moreover, he himself has always kept a low profile. Few people present had seen his true face, so they couldn't help but be very curious about this young principal.

Gu Shenzhi looked at the chattering crowd indifferently, and only after everyone quieted down after discussing, did he speak calmly again:

"The other important thing is that my child, Lin Qian, recently got engaged to the second lady of the Wang family, and it was announced today, double happiness." Gu Shenzhi cast his eyes on Lin Qian, his indifferent gaze softened, and beckoned to Lin Qian. Waving, said in a warm voice, "Qian'er, come here."

As soon as he finished his previous sentence, the bottom immediately exploded.Who is Lin Qian?That's the person who will hold the military power of the Gu family in the future!The Gu family has been able to walk on the road for so many years, and most of them rely on the arms business.It can be said that whoever wins Lin Qian wins most of the Gu family!Many people were desperate to marry their daughters to the Gu family, but Gu Shenzhi was very tight-lipped. Most of them didn't even know what Lin Qian and Gu Jingxi looked like, let alone find a chance to marry the Gu family.

Why is there a thunder on the ground now, and the golden tortoise son-in-law who has seen through his eyes is engaged when he says he is engaged?

For a moment, everyone's eyes were on Lin Qian.

Lin Qian smiled wryly in his heart, knowing that what should come will still come, and there is no way to hide.He took advantage of the few tens of seconds when he walked next to Gu Shenzhi to adjust his mood, and when he looked up again, he had a tight and steady expression again.

"Ms. Wang and I fell in love at first sight. We have made a private decision for the rest of our lives when we first met. I am grateful to Mr. Wang for agreeing to this marriage, and I am also very grateful to everyone for your love. I have no one but her in my heart." Lin Qian calmly As he spoke, he said the same nonsense, somehow became gentle and touching.

After all, the same scene had been rehearsed countless times in his mind, and he delicately controlled the tone of every word, with an appropriately affectionate expression on his face.

Lin Qian didn't even need to look at the expressions of the people below - he knew that he had always done a good job in this kind of thing. He was gentle when he should be gentle, and affectionate when he should be affectionate. He was dressed in carefully arranged emotions, and no one could see through himself.
