Chapter 062. Reception 2
Anran walked towards them. Within a distance of ten paces, Huang Dexing notice her. He was watching her with a slightly unhappy eyes. Anran knew that he was dissatisfied with her.
Anran calmly walked towards him. When she approached, it was only then that she found out that the back of the person who standing beside them was Tong Wen Hai. Gently, she frowned. Lately, she seemed to meet him particularly often.
Looking at her approaching, Huang Dexing changed his unhappy eyes. He smiled at Anran and said, “Anran, over here. We were just talking about you. Tong Juzhang asked me about why you did not come.”
While he said it, behind him, Xiao Xiao and Tong Wen Hai also turned around to look at Anran. Xiao Xiao still had a faint smile on her face while Tong Wen Hai seemed glad to see her. Tong Wen Hai smiled and said, “I just thought that you did not come. I did not see you here. ”
Anran smiled, excusing herself by saying, ” I just went to the bathroom.”
Suddenly, someone came looking for Tong Wen Hai. While Tong Wen Hai and the man spoke, Huang Dexing took a gla.s.s of wine and gave it to Anran. He then came closer to her and whispered, “Tong Juzhang seems to have a good impression of you. This evening, you have to accompany him carefully.”
Hearing that, Anran frowned. She was about to say something, when she saw that Tong Wen Hai and the man had finished speaking. He turned and smiled at them, and asked, ” The Tender for the New City Hall, does ‘Sincere"(Jingcheng) have the intention to partic.i.p.ate?”
“Of course. These days, Anran and Xiao Xiao have been preparing the design. We have prepared for the tender, this time, the Board has also requested a lot of attention from the children regarding this. “Huang Dexing said, laughing.
Tong Wen Hai, who was standing, just smiled, raising his hand which was holding the wine gla.s.s.
“Dad.”
Several people were standing, then Huang Dexing winked at Anran to say something positive. Suddenly, from behind her came a gentle female voice. Anran actually felt a kind of sense of familiarity regarding that voice.
Everyone turned around and saw behind him that a couple was moving towards them, with the man was holding the woman. The woman was laughing. She looked pretty. Xiao Xiao was not as gorgeous as her. Xiao Xiao was flirtatious. Tong Xiao Jie’s beauty was very indifferent, like water, but more prominent in her delicate features. She dressed in a simple white dress which set off her good figure. Her temperament was more ethereal, a kind of unworldly feeling.
Anran stared at her. She had naturally recognize her, Tong Xiao Jie, the most beautiful school beauty known in T University.
Tong Xiao Jie was holding Mo Fei’s hand and lightly sweeping the crowd with her eyes, only stopping at Anran. The smile on her mouth had not changed, even her face did not change, and her eyes, compared to Anran who was stunned, looked too lightly.
Her eyes also did not stay too long at Anran’s body, her eyes looked back at Tong Wen Hai, “Dad, I just asked Mo Fei to see you. I have just come, when I saw you talking and smiling here.”
“Xiao Jie, you come, ah. “Tong Wen Hai smiled watching his daughter, then towards her said,” This is ‘Sincere (Jingcheng)’s director, Director Huang. This is Architect Xiao and Architect Gu. I heard that recently Mo Fei was talking about things with the cooperation with ‘Sincere’. In the future, there will be many opportunities for contact with them. ”
Tong Xiao Jie nodded with a smile. Her facial expressions did not have much warmth, it was with a kind of invisible distance. Then, she turned around and looked at Mo Fei, and only said, “These days he has been late. Presumably, he has been busy with the cooperation.” While saying it, she reached for the tie which was a little bit crooked and corrected it for him, then turning aside, she said, “Oh, you say, you’ve just come back. How busy work was when you were in the United States, ah. Not afraid to make himself busy. “Then, her eyebrows slightly rose.
Mo Fei showed a rather unnatural smile. He pulled his hand. His eyes were looking straight at Anran.
Tong Xiao Jie followed his gaze, just to meet Anran’s eyes. Her mouth slightly pulled, watching Anran, she laughed, “This is senior Anran, long time no see, my sister changed almost beyond recognition. ”
Senior. Oh, this t.i.tle was a good, weird one. Obviously, they were in the same year, ah, since when did she become her senior.
Anran just laughed, and did not speak. In fact, she did not know what to say. When they met in school before, even nodding, they did not really pay any attention to each other. Perhaps, when she suddenly came across such a moment, then she really did not know how to process it.
Xiao Xiao looked at the interaction between them. She did not have a meaning, but her mouth evoked a smile. She wanted her reaction before when Tong Xiao Jie received the photo, but looking at her now, she thought, this Tong Xiao Jie was also not a good person. To her understanding of Anran, afraid Anran was not Tong Xiao Jie’s opponent. So thinking about it, her smile deepened.
Because Mo Fei and Tong Xiao Jie had arrived, the atmosphere became somewhat strange. Huang Dexing wanted to say something to ease it when Tong Xiao Jie spoke again.
Looking at Mo Fei, Tong Xiaojie said, “I want to go to the bathroom.”
Mo Fei nodded, “Go.”
Tong Xiao Jie turned around smiling, but did not leave immediately. She looked at Anran and laughed, “Senior, you accompany me there. I just came back, I’ve also never been here before. Senior Anran, can you help me by leading the way? ”
Anran was stunned for a moment, after awhile, she did not find any underlying meaning behind it. It was merely accompanying her go to the bathroom. It was so simple. When she was just about to refuse, beside her, Xiao Xiao spoke, “Anran, accompany Tong Xiao Jie there. You just went to the bathroom, you know the way.”
Hearing it, Tong Xiao Jie turned around, and without any meaning, looked at Xiao Xiao. Her mouth slightly c.o.c.ked .
“Yes, ah. Anran, you accompany Tong Xiao Jie to go to the bathroom.” Without understanding the situation, Huang Dexing who was standing beside her, also began to ask.
He did not know whether he was afraid that Tong Xiao Jie would embarra.s.s Anran, or afraid of what Tong Xiao Jie would tell Anran, suddenly, Mo Fei said, “I’ll take you there.”
Tong Xiao Jie whispered and laughed. She turned around and looked at her husband and smiled, “We are going to the ladies’ room. What’s a big man like you going there for. Say, I have not seen Senior for so many years, naturally I want to have a little chat.”
After she said it, Anran no longer had a reason to refuse it. It was already impossible, so she nodded and said, “Come on, the toilet is over there.” Then, she was the first to walk to begin walking to the place.
