Chapter 1293 - Social Gathering
Chapter 1293: Social Gathering
Qiao Yanze’s eyes darkened when he saw Cen Xi drawing back her hand and held her hand again, putting it back under the cold water. Cen Xi struggled for a while, but was unable to break away.
“Wait here, I’ll get the ointment.”
Cen Xi pursed her lips and looked at his back. “There’s no need to. Young Master Qiao, I have already made myself clear that time. If you are just interested in me and only want to continue that previous relationship in bed, I’m sorry. Please forgive me for not being able to keep you company.”
Qiao Yanze looked at the woman’s cold and stubborn face and he frowned, his voice cold. “Cen Xi!”
Instead of looking at Qiao Yanze, Cen Xi went past him quickly, leaving the villa with quick steps.
Qiao Yanze punched the wall.
Christ, she left just like that!
But, after she had moved out of the villa, instead of being decadent and depressed, she worked hard and became more confident, calm and full of vitality. As for him, as long as he was free of work, he would be shrouded in an inexplicable emptiness.
Just now, he was still immersed in such warmth and intimacy, but she was able to get herself out and left quickly.
All it left him with was a sense of embarrassment and frustration. This was not what he had expected!
It was a terrible feeling.
…
Auntie Li heard ruckus and got out of bed and went to the kitchen.
When she saw that there was only Qiao Yanze in the kitchen, she went in with a frown. “Young Master, where is Miss Cen?”
Qiao Yanze did not look so good. “Gone.”
“Young Master, you clearly care about Miss Cen. Because of her, you are in a bad mood recently. Why don’t you have a good talk with hー”
Qiao Yanze interrupted Auntie Li’s words. “Don’t worry about me and her anymore. You don’t know who she is. If you do, you will definitely oppose of us being together.”
Auntie Li did not understand Qiao Yanze’s words. Miss Cen looked cold and aloof, but was actually kind and gentle. She also cared and liked Young Master very much.
An old woman like her was able to see it, why couldn’t Young Master…
“Since she put on such a lofty attitude and wants to have a clean break, it’s up to her. Must I, Qiao Yanze, only have her?”
After Cen Xi went out of the villa, she remembered that her bag was still in the living room and she had left without saying anything to Auntie Li. She then went back to the villa and took her bag. Seeing that Auntie Li was in the kitchen, she walked over and before she went in, she heard Qiao Yanze’s words.
A trace of a mocking smile appeared on Cen Xi lips and she did not go into the kitchen but turned around and left quickly.
Sitting in the taxi, her eyes prickled with tears and she raised her head, forcing back those tears that were about to fall.
…
Three days later.
Qiao Yanze was going to the North to deal with the riot and Cen Xi gave her resume to Nan Zhi’s chief interpreter.
On this day, Cen Xi took the translation materials of the K Country visit to Crown Palace and gave them to Nan Zhi, and Nan Zhi asked Cen Xi to have lunch together.
Yan Hua and Xia Yanran were also in Crown Palace. When they were having lunch, they were talking about relationship problems and Yan Hua sighed. “I really don’t know how to coax my General Bo. He stays in the force usually and I’m busy with the production of my new album. We only get to see each other once a month and he used to look for me, but ever since I left then came back, he never took the initiative again. He’s so cold and is even harder to handle than when he did not like me that year.”
Nan Zhi smiled. “Your General Bo is just lying. He said that he did not forgive you, but he cares about you so much in his heart!”
“I know that he still has me in his heart, but he just won’t say it. I don’t know how to break the ice between us.” Yan Hua stuck out her tongue. “To tell you the truth, I’m a little afraid of him when his expression is tensed up.”
“It seems like their unit is going to have a social gathering tonight. I heard that there will be beautiful nurses and the art troupe participating.”
Xia Yanran touched her round tummy and said brightly, “Huahua, go to the force. Don’t let any little girl fix their eyes on your General Bo.”
“I’ve been to the force many times. He was indifferent to me and I even made a joke out of myself last time. I don’t have the face to go anymore.” Yan Hua seemed a little dejected.
Seeming to have thought of something, Nan Zhi looked at Cen Xi, who was eating quietly by the side. “Huahua, why don’t you take Xiao Xi with you? Xiao Xi is still single and she can experience the social gathering of the force.”
Cen Xi could hear the implied meaning in Nan Zhi’s words. On one hand, she wanted her to take part in the gathering, and on the other hand, she wanted her to accompany Sister Huahua to find General Bo to give Sister Huahua an out.
Cen Xi nodded with a smile. “Okay, I’d like to see what the social gatherings in the force are like!”
…
In the afternoon, Yan Hua and Cen Xi went to Xia Yanran’s shopping mall to put on makeup and bought some dresses.
Yan Hua bought a dark green retro style dress. It was low-key yet gorgeous. It did not show off her chest or back and the fit of the dress perfectly outlined the womanly shape of Yan Hua’s figure.
Yan Hua was exquisite with a small face and beautiful facial features. On camera, she belonged to those with a movie star face, with excellent bone structure and no flaws. In real life, she was a delicate and ravishing beauty, and with the precipitation of time and experience, there was a alluring, feminine air to her.
As Yan Hua’s voice was very pleasant, ethereal, clear and charming, Cen Xi was Yan Hua’s fan and she had collected all of her albums.
…
They drove to the training grounds where Bo Yan was. Yan Hua had been here many times and everyone knew that she was General Bo’s wife so no one dared to stop her.
But this was Cen Xi’s first time here and according to the rules, she had to show her identification card and register properly.
After Yan Hua parked the car, she took Cen Xi to the office building of Bo Yan.
“Xiao Xi, there’s an adjutant by General Bo’s side. He’s six years older than you, single and is sunny and handsome. Do you want me to introduce him to you?”
Cen Xi scratched at her head, embarrassed. “Sister Huahua, to be honest, I don’t want to get a boyfriend for the time being.”
Yan Hua nodded. “How can you young girls be so amazing? Although you don’t have a boyfriend, your career has developed so well. When I was your age, I was only trying to pursue my General Bo, and at that time I was still a fatty.”
Cen Xi was surprised. “Sister Huahua, it’s impossible. I thought you were beautiful from when you were a child!”
“It’s all thanks to Zhizhi. It was her diet meals that made me lose weight.”
They went up the stairs to the third floor and Yan Hua took Cen Xi to Bo Yan’s office. She was about to knock when the door was pulled open from the inside.
Bo Yan’s adjutant stood inside and seeing that Yan Hua was here, he greeted her hurriedly, “Sister-in-law, you’re here!” It had been nearly a month since the last time Yan Hua came to the force and in this month, General Bo was more and more aloof and the force was shrouded in an oppressive atmosphere.
At this moment, the adjutant saw Yan Hua here and it was like he had seen his savior.
Cen Xi followed Yan Hua into the office and saw that there were several men sitting on the sofa. Other than Bo Yan and several officers, there was also a person who she was familiar, yet unfamiliar with.
Qiao Yanze.
