If I have you, I will be happy forever

Chapter 10 Banquet (1)
Li Xintong looked at Song Zimo's handsome side face, and suddenly felt that the man who was so desperate to fight for him when he was young, is now so close, but he is so powerless.

【1】

The effect of sleeping in a large bed is very different from that of a small bed.Li Xintong woke up feeling refreshed today, and her mood was particularly clear.Of course, her mood is closely related to money.Song Zimo gave her an unlimited black card, and all her small arrears were paid off, and she wanted to fulfill all her previous promises.

One day after get off work, Li Xintong called her cousin Susan when she was about to leave work.

"Hello." Susan on the other end of the phone seemed unable to cheer up.

"Cousin, what's the matter with you?"

"Xin Tong!" Susan's tone was weak, "I accidentally offended Eva's VIP today, and I scratched the evening dress that VIP gave to his girlfriend. Eva was furious and asked me to make exactly the same one within two days." Yes, or lose money and leave. How can I afford to pay for a dress worth 50 yuan?"

"But don't you design jewelry? How do you go to work in Eva's clothing store?"

"There is a shortage of people in the clothing business, and Eva told me to come over."

"No wonder!" Li Xintong knew that Susan was not such a sloppy person, "Then what do you do with this dress?"

Speaking of this, Susan burst into tears: "I found a tailor just now, and the tailor said that the tailoring requirements of this evening dress are very high. Without 20 years of experience in making clothes, it is impossible at all. And this kind of fabric, only pocket money The fabric company has them, and special reservations are required. I don’t know anyone who does odd fabrics, and it’s impossible for them to rush to make.”

"How about paying 50 yuan?" Li Xintong felt that this was an impossible task.

"No. Then I don't want to hang out in city A, and I will definitely not find a job in the future."

"..." Li Xintong was also worried about her cousin, but she didn't know high-end tailors at all, and she had never been in contact with a pocket fabric company.But she can't sit idly by.In her most painful and desperate time, it was her cousin who always comforted her, encouraged her, and extended a helping hand to her.She could only look for Song Zimo tentatively.Li Xintong told Susan about her thoughts, and Susan said worriedly, "Then you will owe him favors again?"

"Then you want to never have a job?"

"I don't want to." Susan said weepingly, "I have wronged you, Xintong."

"Don't talk about that now, I'll go find him. What's the name of that dress?"

"The Daughter of the Forest."

"understood."

【2】

Li Xintong called Song Zimo nervously.

"Hey."

"it's me."

"please say."

Really not generally polite.Li Xintong took a deep breath, she didn't want to use a requesting tone, she seemed to be chatting: "I've taken a fancy to a dress, designed by Eva."

"which one?"

Li Xintong knew that Song Zimo had a certain friendship with Eva, so she said, "An evening dress under Eva's clothing brand is called the Daughter of the Forest. This one has already been reserved, and I want the exact same one."

"Eva did it herself, and she seems to only do one thing."

It seems that Song Zimo and Eva are very familiar.Li Xintong said: "Well, so I wanted it, so I asked my cousin to find Eva to buy it for me, but my cousin was so excited that she tore the dress, and this dress had already been sold to someone else, and Eva asked me to pay for an identical one. For her customers, the fabric of that dress must be reserved at Pocket Fabric, so I would like to ask you to help."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, Song Zimo said: "Why do you think I will help you? It is the duty of a husband to settle troubles for his own woman."

Li Xintong was startled, not knowing how to respond.When she was in trouble, she was the first to think that Song Zimo would help her, so it should be so.Maybe he was right, she might have thought of the definition of a girlfriend too beautifully, and she didn't put herself in the right position.

Li Xintong thought that Song Zimo was rejecting her, but he didn't expect Song Zimo to say, "When do you need clothes?"

"Better tomorrow morning."

"Who makes the clothes?"

"I... haven't found a master who makes clothes yet."

"I'll deliver the finished product tomorrow night. I won't be going home tonight. Remember to lock the door."

"Ah! Okay." This was Li Xintong's unexpected result, a little pleasantly surprised and an unspeakable emotion welling up in his heart.He clearly said just now that it is her husband's responsibility to stand up for her, but now he is doing it for her, but she understands too well that he will not be her husband, he is just the man she once loved the most, even though they are together again , but some things cannot go back, for example, she will no longer look forward to their future.

Li Xintong called Susan again to reassure her and wait patiently for the finished product tomorrow.Susan still asked worriedly: "Can Song Zimo really get the exact same clothes?"

"Don't worry, he will do what he says."

In fact, even Li Xintong herself didn't understand, where did she get the trust, did she think Song Zimo would do what he said?To Song Zimo, this was just an insignificant matter, and even if it wasn't completed, it just couldn't meet her needs, and it wasn't a big deal.

That night, Li Xintong tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.Finally picked up the phone and called Susan.Susan didn't seem to be able to fall asleep either. When she answered the phone, her voice was very energetic, as if she had been woken up.

"I can't sleep tonight." Li Xintong sighed slightly.

Susan said: "Me too, my heart is in a state of agitation, Xintong, is it convenient for you to come to my place? Sleep with me."

Li Xintong also knew how much Susan cared about this job, so she comforted her, "Well, I'll go to accompany you."

"Come on, I'll wait for you."

Li Xintong hung up the phone, packed up the toiletries, got dressed and hurried to Susan's house, and slept with her for the night.

The next morning, Li Xintong went to and from get off work as usual, and at five o'clock in the evening, she received a call from Song Zimo.On the phone, his tone was very indifferent: "where are you?"

"company."

"The clothes are ready, you can come to my company to get them. Just ask Secretary Lin."

Li Xintong wanted to say thank you, but Song Zimo hung up the phone directly without giving her a chance.For this reason, Li Xintong judged that Song Zimo didn't seem very happy. As for the reason, she didn't think it had anything to do with her, and she didn't care much. Secretary Lin Xiaowan.

Lin Xiaowan seemed to remember Li Xintong too, and when she saw Li Xintong walking towards her, she bowed respectfully and halfway: "Miss Li, President Allen asked me to give this to you, and asked me to notify you so that you will be on the waterside terrace at 06:30 A71, dinner, please don't be late."

Li Xintong was stunned, looking at Lin Xiaowan who was doing business, she felt a little embarrassed, smiled dryly, nodded and said, "Thank you, that... Song... Is Mr. Allen in the office?"

"President Allen has something to go out. If you need anything, you can call him on his cell phone."

"Oh, it's okay, you go first, I'm leaving."

"Miss Li is good to go."

Li Xintong felt awkward, she had always been respectful and polite to others, and she really wasn't used to being treated like this.Maybe this is the so-called slavery?No wonder she always felt a little embarrassed about Song Zimo. She thought it was hard to mind, but it turned out that she just regarded Song Zimo as a god-like client from the bottom of her heart.

She walked out of Dongyue Group and called Susan.

"Hello?" Susan said in a very low voice.

"I got the clothes."

"Really?!" Susan immediately raised her voice, and immediately realized that she had lost her composure, and lowered the decibel of her voice, "My customer is in the store, I can't go out."

"Then I'll send it to Eva's shop."

"Really? Xintong, you are the best for me, I can't repay you, let me promise you with your body."

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, I'll hang up first." Li Xintong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, hung up the phone, and directly hailed a taxi and drove to Eva's clothing store.

In fact, Li Xintong admires Eva very much, she is an extremely inspirational woman.She came from a poor family and couldn't afford college. At the age of 16, she smuggled to the United States and struggled for ten years. Not only did she get a green card in the United States, she was also worth hundreds of millions.But her history in the United States is vague, no one knows what she has experienced, only a woman under the age of 40, with a net worth of hundreds of millions, involved in the jewelry and clothing industry, specialized in associating with celebrities Shuyuan, and knew all the high-class people in City A There are countless people who are matchmakers. People in City A spread a word: As long as you know Eva, half a foot has stepped into the upper class.It can be described as a romantic figure.

Eva's clothing store is actually not far from Song Zimo's Dongyue Group. Li Xintong took a taxi here because she was wearing high heels and couldn't walk much.As soon as she got out of the car, she saw many figures swaying inside through the transparent glass window.There was a tall man standing opposite Susan, far away, Li Xintong couldn't see his face clearly, but in terms of body shape, he already met the two standards of being tall and handsome.

Li Xintong thought about whether to go in now, and finally made up her mind to enter Eva's clothing store.

When Li Xintong entered the shop, the first pair of eyes he met was the tall man opposite Susan.

He has very deep double eyelids.His eyes are not as deep as Song Zimo's, but they are very energetic, bright and clear, without the appearance of a city.He looks very handsome, but his clothes... are sloppy, and he doesn't fit in a high-end clothing store like Eva.A black long-sleeved pullover T-shirt with sleeves rolled up above the elbows, dark blue jeans, and a pair of flip-flops that do not match the season.

This is an artist?

【3】

He was looking at Li Xintong, and stared at her with a pair of smiling eyes.Yes, damn it!Not transferred for a moment.Li Xintong was terrified by him, deliberately ignored him, walked to Susan, and handed the clothes to Susan: "Do you see this dress?"

Susan hurriedly opened the box, and inside lay a grass-green evening dress that was knee-length, twill-cut at the waist, and decorated with Chinese-style carvings as a finishing touch.In Li Xintong's eyes, this evening dress didn't feel very prominent, but it was such an evening dress that almost derailed Susan's life.

Susan excitedly turned her head to look at the man opposite her: "Mr. Song, the clothes are ready."

Li Xintong looked up and thought it was a coincidence that this man was also surnamed Song.It's just that there is a big gap with Song Zimo's impression.When she saw Song Zimo for the first time, she only thought of one word: astonished as a heavenly being.It was the summer of the third year of junior high school, and the atmosphere of the upcoming senior high school entrance examination made the whole classroom very dull.She, who doesn't like to study, is as usual, lying on the table to sleep, she is sleeping soundly, her deskmate desperately pushes her, and shouts in her mouth: "Handsome guy, handsome guy, such a beautiful handsome guy."

She tried to open her eyes a little, and looked towards the door of the classroom in a daze.A pair of indifferent eyes were also looking at her.He stood in the backlight, his tall and straight figure, and his extremely fair skin formed a sharp contrast with the surroundings. He was unsmiling, but stood at the door, looking indifferently at the girls in the classroom who were excited by his appearance, and curious boys.

Although Li Xintong is an ashes-level veteran of the Appearance Association, she is definitely not a nymphomaniac, and she will not easily like someone, but she really fell in love with Song Zimo at first sight, and she has a strong desire to possess.She doesn't like other girls coveting Song Zimo, she just wants to keep Song Zimo alone, and she will appreciate it and own it alone.She had never bothered to pursue a boy so much, sat next to him after class and chatted with him, and walked with him in the opposite direction when she returned home.She was rejected as many times as she confessed, but she was tireless, she just wanted to hang around in front of his eyes, afraid that once she left his sight, he would pay attention to other girls.Song Zimo once asked her, was the man she fell in love with lucky or unlucky?She will love that man with all her heart, but her possessiveness will make him miserable.

Loving Song Zimo made Li Xintong deeply understand that love is like quicksand, the tighter it is held, the faster it will be lost.This may be the reason why Song Zimo couldn't fall in love with her.

"Hello." Song Ling greeted Li Xintong friendly, and successfully recalled Li Xintong who was in a trance.Li Xintong was startled: "Hello."

Song Ling smiled and asked, "Are you Miss Su's friend?"

Susan hurriedly helped Li Xintong answer: "Mr. Song, she is my cousin."

Song Ling thought for a moment, then looked at Li Xintong with a smile, but he was speaking to Susan.He said: "Miss Su, because you tore the dress, the dance partner I invited ignored me. I don't have a dance partner tonight, and you have to pay me one."

His purpose could not be more clear.He wanted Li Xintong to be his dance partner.

Susan was a little embarrassed, she looked at Li Xintong pitifully, her eyes seemed to say: Xintong, what do you think?
Seeing Song Ling's burning gaze, Li Xintong knew in her heart that if she didn't agree, Susan would have a hard time getting through this hurdle.She smiled and said to Song Ling, "Mr. Song, do you think I'm suitable?"

Song Ling nodded with satisfaction: "Very suitable."

Li Xintong smiled back.She has no idea what the man in front of her likes about her.In terms of looks and figure, she is not the best.If it's just an emergency, as Eva's VIP, she doesn't believe that this man has no supply.

No matter what his purpose is, she only understands that she has no interest in this man.Song Ling said that there will be a banquet at 07:30 tonight, so she should prepare it carefully.Li Xintong didn't understand the extent of his so-called "attentiveness". It was only later that she realized that she had to spend all her time on dressing up from the moment she agreed to the banquet.

Li Xintong knew that she had no time to go to Song Zimo's appointment.So he called Song Zimo anxiously to cancel the appointment.

"Why?" Song Zimo's tone was very puzzled on the phone, with a kind of unwilling mood swing.

"There's something wrong with the company." Li Xintong felt that it was necessary to tell a lie. He couldn't say that he was going to a party with another man before releasing him, could he?Song Zimo seemed dissatisfied with her reason, but he didn't get angry, but hung up the phone directly.

Li Xintong shrugged and didn't care.He was not in a good mood today, and it was right to lose his temper.

【4】

Due to time constraints, she didn't have time to ask Susan.Li Xintong was very curious about Song Ling's identity. A man with such a scruffy appearance actually took her to a top salon to have her hair done, and he was transformed from an "artist" to a rich man.

When the two walked out of the salon, there happened to be a car parked in front of them, a black Spyker.He opened the car door politely, very gentlemanly.Li Xintong nodded and smiled, and sat in the co-pilot's seat.

When Song Ling was driving, he always liked to pull his tie. It seemed that the tie was not very comfortable.Li Xintong asked: "Not used to wearing a tie?"

"Yeah, awkward."

Li Xintong chuckled and said: "It seems that this banquet is a banquet that I have to attend."

"That's right, the birthday party my mother held for me was actually to introduce me to a girlfriend in a disguised form." Song Ling seemed a little annoyed when he mentioned this.

Li Xintong also felt the irritability in his tone, and finally knew what role she was playing.She wanted to laugh a little: "Why did you reject your mother's kindness? Could it be that you have a girlfriend? It's just that you don't belong to the right family, and you dare not confess to your mother, so you ask me to pretend?"

Song Ling tugged on the tie again, and glanced at her: "Which girl would want to fall in love with a man like me who is dead at any time? I just don't want to hurt innocent girls."

Li Xintong didn't quite understand: "Is it dead at any time?"

"I'm a detective."

Li Xintong almost lost his composure, and instinctively opened his mouth wide. Song Ling looked like a child of a rich family, but he was a criminal policeman, which was very surprising.This kind of rich second generation is already rare, and such enlightened parents are even rarer.

"Do you have any siblings?"

"Only son."

"..." Li Xintong shook her mouth, "Your parents are..."

"My mother is the chairman of Huadong Tourism."

"..." Li Xintong was completely shocked.This is the baby son of the number one strong woman?Song Baozhu and Eva, the chairman of Huadong Tourism, are known as the two legends of City A.What they have in common is that they were born in poverty, but counterattacked their lives and successfully transformed into celebrities.The difference between the two is that there are men and women behind Eva's success, but there are only men behind Song Baozhu's success.
