Chapter 1714 The Girl Who Sneaked In
Chapter 1813 The girl who sneaked in
Coming out of the dress shop, Duan Shuxian and Xi Jingchen got into the car. Her quiet eyes were filled with a hint of nervousness, and her hands were twisted together.
Xi Jingchen reached out and held one of her hands in his palm, wrapping it, with a touch of tenderness in his eyes.
Duan Shuxian exhaled slightly, and she also strengthened her determination in her heart. Although her previous life was very ordinary, she also tried to accept and get close to his life.
Take up the courage and accompany him as calmly as possible.
In the big hotel where the banquet was held, but a hotel with national security, in the elegant western restaurant, the two had a little dinner. Xi Jingchen was worried that she would be hungry when she went into the banquet later.
Time unknowingly reached half past six, and many luxury cars had already driven outside the hotel. The guests who came to attend this charity dinner all came on time. This time, Madam Sun invited all the celebrities familiar to the business world, and there were also many ladies and young masters from the political world. This banquet was not open to the public because there was an important charity recruitment event tonight, which was a special fundraising event called by Madam Sun.
Charity is an activity that enhances self-worth and is very meaningful. As a celebrity, he is willing to contribute.
Xi Jingchen was not in a hurry to bring Duan Shuxian in, so he chatted about recent events in the coffee shop downstairs. Hearing that Duan Shumin went abroad, Xi Jingchen thought it was a good thing.
It is very correct for a person to understand what he wants to do and clarify his life goals.
Just like his life has been arranged, but his goals are also very clear, and in this life, he has his own choice for his wife who is about to spend his life with him.
"Shuxian, do you feel pressure when you are with me?" Xi Jingchen asked in a low voice.
Duan Shuxian blinked, pressure? She must have some, but as long as she can be with him, she is not afraid of facing pressure.
She nodded, "There is some pressure, but I will overcome it."
"Are you ready to spend your life with me?" Xi Jingchen's eyes locked on her.
Duan Shuxian nodded again without hesitation, "I'm ready! No matter what kind of difficulties I have to face in the future, I will not back down."
Xi Jingchen's eyes flashed with a relieved smile. He could see the determination in her eyes. Although she looked weak, she had a strong soul.
Xi Jingchen glanced at his watch. It was seven o'clock. He said gently, "We should go up."
"Well!" Duan Shuxian stood up. She was not used to wearing high heels. She took two steps and stepped off the right side. She was so scared that she grabbed the man's arm.
Xi Jingchen's hand quickly grabbed her waist and held her steady.
"Are you okay?" Xi Jingchen asked with concern.
"It's okay. I just missed a step." Duan Shuxian pursed her lips and smiled, but since she had held him, she would not let go.
Xi Jingchen leaned down slightly and warned, "Hold me tight, or you'll fall again."
Duan Shuxian tightened her arms again, "I will."
Around seven o'clock, in the parking lot at the entrance of the hotel, a low-key black Maybach car stopped, and the hotel security immediately stepped forward to open the door for him.
A slender leg stepped down, and then Duan Siye got down from the driver's seat.
He came alone, wearing a black suit, as if he had just rushed here from the company.
"Mr. Duan! Please come in." The manager came out to greet him and recognized him at a glance.
Duan Siye's reputation comes from his family's political identity and his own outstanding identity in the business world.
With his dual identity, he already makes people feel noble on many occasions.
However, he has always been low-key, like a lonely king.
Just when Duan Siye was about to go in, a girl suddenly rushed down from another car. She rushed in directly. Because she was in a hurry, she bumped into Duan Siye's back, knocking his upright figure forward.
"Sorry, sorry!" The girl was so anxious to go in that she didn't even have time to look at the person who was hit.
However, several security guards standing guard in front immediately stopped the girl who rushed in front, "Miss, please show your invitation card! Otherwise, you are not allowed to enter."
The girl immediately ran quickly. When the security guard stretched out his hand to stop her, she quickly stopped and explained to the security guard, "Hello, it's like this, my friend is upstairs, I went up to find someone."
"Tonight is a private banquet. If you don't have an invitation card, you are not allowed to enter." The security guard strictly enforced this order.
"How can you be so unkind! I just went upstairs to find someone and came down quickly." The girl bit her lip, and at the same time, she looked at the elevator in front of her eyes, with a trace of resentment in her eyes.
"Mr. Duan, are you okay?" The manager behind him carefully helped the man who was hit.
Duan Siye had already stood up straight. He looked at the impolite girl. His face was slightly cold. He didn't like such impolite people.
"Look, there is smoke over there. It's going to catch fire." The girl suddenly pointed and shouted.
When the security guards heard about smoke and fire, they really had to be attracted by her words. The six bodyguards immediately stared at the direction she pointed, and the girl's slender figure immediately slipped under the bodyguards who were blocking her, and she ran towards the elevator.
The bodyguard reacted and chased after her immediately, but the girl was pressing the elevator button in a hurry. At the moment when the bodyguard rushed over, the elevator door was closed. Even if several bodyguards went to force the door open, the elevator was already going up.
The bodyguard immediately picked up the pager and notified the security guards outside the banquet door, asking them to pay attention to a girl who broke into the banquet by force, and reported the girl's clothes, a denim skirt, long hair, a height of about 1.65 meters, and delicate features. The girl must be intercepted.
The manager also ordered the security guards very angrily to find the girl and take her out of the hotel quickly.
Duan Siye stepped into the elevator next to him, his sword eyebrows twisted, imagining why the girl broke into the banquet by force. Looking at her expression just now, it really seemed that she was looking for someone.
When he stepped out of the elevator, he saw several security guards standing in the elevator, talking on the pager. Duan Siye heard their tone, it seemed that they did not see a girl in a denim skirt getting off the elevator on this floor.
Duan Siye watched several security guards immediately enter the elevator to look for her, and he ignored them and walked towards the direction of the banquet hall.
Xi Jingchen and Duan Shuxian had already entered the banquet hall, but Xi Jingchen did not want to announce his identity too loudly, after all, he had been in the army for these years and not many people knew him.
When Xi Jingchen greeted Madam Sun, he reminded her of this. Aunt Sun was also an understanding person, and she did not introduce Xi Jingchen's identity in particular.
In the crowd this time, in addition to those ladies with jewels and gems, there were also many young men, all of whom were children of famous political families.
Although it was a private banquet, there were nearly fifty people, and many of them came with their female companions, because someone revealed tonight that Madam Sun was going to sell a few special items, which could be regarded as a small auction!
It happened that they could do good deeds and appreciate the treasures specially collected by Madam Sun in advance.
Xi Jingchen and Duan Shuxian were particularly eye-catching in the crowd. Whether it was their appearance or the aura they exuded, there was no shortage of beautiful and elegant beauties here tonight, but Duan Shuxian's presence attracted the attention of most men, because she had a particularly charming and fresh temperament, like an orchid in the valley, and seemed fresh and refined.
Needless to say, Xi Jingchen, standing in front of the young master of a political family, even if his identity was mysterious, he still had a momentum that crushed them.
At this moment, the door of the hall was pushed open, and a handsome figure stepped in.
Duan Shuxian turned her head and was surprised to see that it was her eldest brother Duan Siye. She said to Xi Jingchen beside her, "My cousin is here too."
Xi Jingchen looked over and said with great interest, "Meet him later. I want to get to know your cousin."
