Chapter 1712 Dinner Invitation
Chapter 1811 Invitation to Dinner
Three days later, Duan Shumin went abroad. During this period of time, she also figured out a lot of things. The death of her mother made her even more aware of how she should go in the future.
At the airport, Duan Deliang and Duan Siye were the only ones seeing her off. Duan Deliang told her to pay attention to safety on the way and to put safety first in anything she did there.
Duan Shumin nodded and looked at the eldest brother beside her. She knew that she didn't have any thoughts about relationships now. Maybe she wouldn't touch relationships again for a few years.
But the Duan family needs to be passed on, and this is also the mother's regret. She looked at her eldest brother.
"Brother, while you are taking care of dad and grandpa, you should also think about your own feelings."
Duan Siye nodded, he naturally knew the heavy responsibility he had on him, and he could also feel the family's urgency in having heirs.
"I will work hard." Duan Siye responded.
Watching Duan Shumin enter the waiting room, the two father and son walked towards the parking lot. Duan Siye said to his father, "I have found a piece of land for you. There is a small villa built on it. Maybe the villa is a little smaller." , do you want to change it again?”
"There's no need to change it. I don't have any needs in this area now. A place to live is enough."
When Duan Siye got in the car, he saw his father walking behind him. He suddenly felt panicked. His father seemed to have become much older after his mother passed away. As a son, even if he had a successful career, how?
There are three kinds of unfilial piety, the greatest of which is not having offspring.
Duan Siye sat in the car and began to think about this problem. It was not that he had not thought about looking for it, but that he had not had time in recent years and was busy with work every day, which made him feel that his life was very fulfilling and there was no more. There is no extra time to think about emotional matters.
In the evening, Duan Shuxian received a call from her grandfather, and she found out about Duan Shumin going abroad. She regretted not going to see her off.
Duan Shuxian also got three extra days of vacation inexplicably. She was directly informed that she didn't have to go to work. Duan Shuxian also knew that Xi Jingchen arranged this.
She has been resting at home for three days, and her spirits have recovered. The symptoms of hypoglycemia have not appeared again. Moreover, in the past three days, in order to strengthen her physical health, she will go for a run in the park downstairs sooner or later.
Tomorrow, she will resume work. These two days, Xi Jingchen seems to be very busy. He only chats at night. During the day, if he did not take the initiative to send her a message, Duan Shuxian would not dare to take the initiative to disturb her. .
In fact, they are still living in two worlds. Her life and everything are incomparable to his world.
In the afternoon, Xi Jingchen, who had just returned from lunch with the delegation, saw his mother chatting with a lady in the hall.
This lady is a charity ambassador. She came here to personally invite Chu Yue to a charity banquet tonight.
Chu Yue happened to need to accompany her husband to another important dinner party tonight, and she couldn't get away.
Chu Yue looked at her son who came back from the door. Her heart moved and she called her son to stop.
"Jingchen, come here and meet Aunt Sun!"
Xi Jingchen knew that the lady in front of him was very successful in charity work in China, so he called out with respect, "Hello, Aunt Sun!"
"Hey! This must be Master Xi! I've been missing him for a while. He's such a talented person with a majestic appearance!" Aunt Sun couldn't help but praise him.
Xi Jingchen smiled modestly and sat next to his mother. Chu Yue said to him, "Mrs. Sun is holding a relatively private charity banquet tonight. I was originally invited to come, but your dad and I made an appointment for dinner, so, Please go there for me tonight!"
Xi Jingchen nodded, "Okay! I'll go there."
Chu Yue smiled and said, "Ask a female companion over there! I think you must have someone to choose from."
A smile flashed in Xi Jingchen's eyes, "Okay! I will invite her to come with me."
After hearing this, Aunt Sun couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. It turned out that Master Xi had a sweetheart! In fact, when Xi Jingchen came to Xi Jingchen just now, she immediately made up her mind for her granddaughter.
Now it seems that she should give up!
Xi Jingchen got up and went upstairs. As soon as he entered his study, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Duan Shuxian's number.
"Hey!" Duan Shuxian's sweet voice came from the other end.
"What are you doing?" Xi Jingchen sat on the sofa. He was a little tired after spending a day with the delegation today.
"Reading a book, how about you?"
"I just got home!" Xi Jingchen's voice was a little lazier, and he asked, "Do you have time tonight?"
"Yes!" Duan Shuxian couldn't help but look forward to it. Since he asked this, there must be an arrangement!
"I have a relatively private banquet tonight, and I would like to ask you to attend it with me."
Duan Shuxian was startled. Banquet? She was still a little nervous, "Is it just the two of us?"
Xi Jingchen also knew that it would take some process to bring Duan Shuxian to his level. After all, she had not been exposed to things at his level in her previous life.
"Don't worry, I'm here, just stand by my side."
Duan Shuxianliang responded gently at the other end, "Okay!"
"I'll pick you up at half past three."
"Isn't it too early?" Duan Shuxian thought to herself, aren't banquets usually held in the evening?
"I want to have a cup of coffee with you!"
"Where to drink?"
“I have a great place to have coffee.”
Duan Shuxian was still a little nervous when she thought of his identity, "You can't run around casually!"
"Don't worry, the place where we drink coffee is very safe, I'll come to pick you up now."
"Didn't you say three o'clock?"
"I want to see you earlier." Xi Jingchen said in a low voice, "Get ready, I'm coming."
After that, he hung up the phone. Although Xi Jingchen was a little tired at the moment, as long as he thought of seeing her, his tiredness seemed to be eliminated immediately. He notified the escort team and went downstairs.
Chu Yue saw that he was going out again, and she knew who he was going to see. She also let her son pursue the happiness he wanted.
After Duan Shuxian put down the phone, she couldn't help but get up and came to the mirror. Looking in the mirror, she was wearing a large and comfortable pajamas, and her hair was casually tied behind her head. At home, she wore whatever she felt comfortable in.
Duan Shuxian hurried to the bathroom to wash her hair and face, and decided to dress up well to meet him, otherwise, she would be really embarrassed to see people.
Duan Shuxian's long hair was softly scattered behind her head, and a few strands of dragon whisker bangs in the middle made her delicate face look very white and petite, and her big eyes were beautiful and watery, full of spirit.
She chose a more ladylike skirt, and she didn't have the habit of putting on makeup before going out. She just applied a moisturizing lip gloss, and the whole person looked energetic.
At about 2:50, Duan Shuxian's cell phone rang. She picked it up and saw who else it was if it wasn't from Xi Jingchen?
She answered it while going out.
"Hello! Are you here? I'll be down right away."
"Well, I'll wait for you at the door." Xi Jingchen responded gently.
Duan Shuxian immediately went downstairs like a happy butterfly, and the smile that couldn't help but rise at the corner of her mouth made her look like a little woman in love.
As soon as Duan Shuxian came out, she saw the bodyguard open a car door and invite her in. Duan Shuxian sat in. Xi Jingchen sat there wearing a dark shirt, half rolled up, revealing half of his strong and powerful forearms, and wearing an out-of-print watch.
Duan Shuxian couldn't help but think of the words "elite pillar" in her mind.
After not seeing each other for two days, Duan Shuxian's heartbeat couldn't stop beating wildly. When she met his deep gaze, she was a little embarrassed and didn't dare to look at him.
Xi Jingchen looked at her shy look, and his strong arm came over, saying in a low voice, "Come sit here."
Duan Shuxian had just got in the car and was a little far away from him. She couldn't help but move her body. The next second, the man's arm gently pressed her, and she snuggled directly into his arms.
Sticking to his strong chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, Duan Shuxian's pretty face was hot, and she closed her eyes at ease, feeling the intimate time with him.
"Let's go have coffee first! At 4:30, we'll try on evening gowns, dinner at 6, and the banquet at 7." Xi Jingchen arranged the time.
Duan Shuxian replied, "Okay!"
Xi Jingchen drove to a coffee shop. This coffee shop was not open to the public, but was located in a very strict ancient servant building. The environment was elegant and quiet, with few customers.
