dear lady

Chapter 14

A few days after returning to Beicheng, it was Mu Xiao's birthday in the lunar calendar, and this year's birthday coincided with Christmas.Mu Chenguang held a birthday party for him, and took this opportunity to introduce Chenyu's future boss to the outside world.

Since it is the crown prince's birthday party, Chen Yu's artists must all attend.

The party officially started at eight o'clock.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the artists were almost all there.In addition to the company's artists, there are also many prominent figures in the political and business circles.

Shi Wan noticed Mu Xiao in the crowd from a distance.

He was dressed in a black suit, and his hair was meticulously styled.

This was the first time Shi Wan saw him in a formal suit, compared to his usual arrogance, it was a bit more elegant and gentle.

Mu Xiao also saw Shiwan.

The two looked at each other, and Mu Xiao raised the corners of his lips slightly at her.

Peach blossom eyes are still so charming.

Shi Wan also smiled.

Even if the two meet, there is no time to talk.

After about half an hour, the party officially began.

Mu Chenguang took Mu Xiao to say a few polite words, and then took him to say hello to other businessmen. The entertainment was endless, and he didn't have time to say a word with Shiwan at all.

A lot of artists from the company came today, even Lu Xuan and Qiu Yan came.

Since last year, Lu Xuan separated from Chenyu and set up his own studio, but the scale is small, and the name is still under the company's banner.

Lu Xuan saw Shiwan in the crowd at first glance. She was wearing an ivory white high-end dress, her expression was clear and cold, and she was still as beautiful as a fairy.

Shi Wan didn't notice him, she was talking to Si Jia beside her.

Si Jia took a glass of champagne, whispered to her, and teased, "Have you noticed that tonight, Xiao Mu always looked at you quite a few times."

Hearing this, Shi Wan looked in Mu Xiao's direction.Seeing him talking to a beautiful woman in a black evening dress beside her, she looked away, "I think you are thinking too much?"

Si Jia clicked his tongue.

Even so, Shi Wan took another look over there——

The two seemed to be old acquaintances, Mu Xiao was very familiar with the woman in the black dress, when she saw him smiling, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

After taking a sip of wine at night, I always feel that the champagne is astringent and bitter.

Many acquaintances came tonight, and Shi Wan had a good reputation in the circle, and all the familiar artists came to say hello.And now, Shi Wan is also Chen Yu's head Hua Dan, and there are people who want to curry favor with her.

Si Jia seemed to have seen an acquaintance, and ran away with small steps.

Not long after Si Jia left, Xue Yan came over, and she said with a smile, "You look good recently."

Shi Wan responded politely, "You're not bad, too."

Xue Yan smiled, and took a glass of red wine from the waiter's tray, "Are you familiar with President Xiao Mu?"

Shiwan didn't answer, but asked instead, "Are you very concerned about this issue?"

The smile on Xue Yan's face remained undiminished, "I was there the night Mr. Xiao Mu fought."

Shi Wan squeezed the wine glass a little harder, "Oh."

"Do you know why Mr. Mu fought that night?" Xue Yan asked again.

"do not know."

Xue Yan clicked his tongue, "It's for a woman."

Shi Wan lowered her eyes to cover up the emotions in her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly, her face was still expressionless, "Everyone has a time when they are young and frivolous."

Xue Yan snorted coldly, "You are really cold-hearted."

Shiwan didn't speak.

Xue Yan continued to speak, "Xiao Mu always did it for you that night."

Shi Wan tightly held the wine glass with her slender, white fingers, her fingertips turned white, but there was not much expression on her face.

What Xue Yan hated most was her appearance.

She was the same way back then, but she easily won Lu Yao's heart, but no matter how hard she tried, it was in vain. In the end, that old woman Qiuyan took advantage of her, "That night, President Xiao Wang said something disgusting about you, and President Xiao Mu listened to you. If you don’t go down, just drop a wine bottle over there.”

She added, "President Xiao Wang's head almost exploded."

"Oh." Shi Wan brushed her hair and turned to look at her, "Thank you for telling me this."

Xue Yan was almost pissed off by her, and left with a stiff face.

Shi Wan looked at her leaving back with a heavy heart.

It turned out that Ah Xiao fought for his own sake, because he misunderstood him.

Thinking of this, Shi Wan felt angry and distressed, and felt a little guilty.

When she searched for Mu Xiao in the crowd, he was no longer in her sight.

……

After Mu Xiao said a few words with his cousin, he was called away by Shu Wan, and when he got back to his original position, Shiwan had already disappeared.

His eyes scanned the hall and it was too late.

He quickly took out his mobile phone and sent her a message.

Shi Wan came back quickly, [I'm on the top floor. 】

Mu Xiao gave instructions to the people around him, and then left the hall.

To get to the top floor, you first have to go through a corridor.

Everyone was in the hall at the moment, and the corridor was quiet.

In quiet moments, the speaking voice will be amplified.

Just as Mu Xiao passed by the storage room, he heard voices coming from inside. It was the voices of two women.

"Sister Qiuyan, let me tell you, I still like Luling until now."

"really?"

"It must be true. Otherwise, it's been three years. Why hasn't Shiwan found a boyfriend yet? And there hasn't been even a single scandal. What other reason can there be other than not being able to forget Lu Xuan?"

"..."

Mu Xiao frowned into the word "Chuan", clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were even more terrifyingly dark.

……

Xue Yan walked out the door of the storage room, just in time to see Mu Xiao who was half leaning on the railing.

Seeing his indifferent expression, Xue Yan knew it in his heart.

Xue Yan hooked her lips, "Mr. Mu, why are you here?"

"Passing by." Mu Xiao clasped the iron railing with his fingertips, his voice was like the cold wind in the winter moon, "I heard you talking for a long time."

Xue Yan's face froze.

"Do you know the charge of spreading rumors?"

Xue Yan shook her head quickly, and said eagerly: "President Mu, I didn't spread rumors, what I said was true! My first film was filmed with Shi Wan and Lu Xuan. You may not know that the film is over. Afterwards, Shiwan and Lu Xuan were together."

Mu Xiao's black eyes were full of hostility, cold and heavy, making people tremble.After a while, he chuckled, coldly, "I really don't know."

……

Shiwan waited on the top floor for 10 minutes, and finally saw a long black shadow.

The black shadow quickly moved towards her.

"Sister." Mu Xiao put the coat in his hand on Shi Wan, "It's cold on the top floor, what are you doing standing on it?"

Shiwan pulled on his thick coat, his almond eyes bent, "I have prepared a Christmas surprise for you."

"Ok?"

Shi Wan pulled the string in his hand, and saw the entire roof light up.

There were snowflakes in the sky, a thick white layer was laid on the ground, and two Christmas trees were placed in the middle of the white layer, and the music sounded, which was the very familiar "Happy Birthday".

Mu Xiao's heart was swollen, it was sweet and sour, and it was still aching.

"Today is a special day." Shi Wan smiled and said, "Happy birthday."

At this moment, Mu Xiao really wanted to hold Shiwan tightly in his arms, especially thinking about it, the kind of thinking that made his bones ache.

"Ah Xiao, I already know why you fought that night." Shi Wan said.

Before Mu Xiao could open his mouth, Shiwan hugged him, and the short hug ended without any recollection, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." He smiled, "You are Ding Huai's sister, and that is my sister too."
