After being read, Black Heart Lotus becomes the favorite in the entertainment industry

When Xiang Tingye and Mo Yin returned from abroad after finishing their work, they brought back a person, who was said to be their partner, the president of Shen Group, named Shen Yanli.

She first gave them a big hug respectively, and then spread her hands towards Ting Ye and Mo Yin with a smile: "Where is my gift? You promised to bring me a gift when you come back from abroad!"

"Wan Ning is just thinking about the gift. Don't you miss your parents?" Xiang Tingye deliberately kept a straight face. He waited until Xiang Wan Ning kissed him twice on the cheek and said, "I miss you all," then he smiled.

Mo Yin handed over the gift box that he had been holding in his hand and said with a smile that she was a greedy person. Xiang Wan Ning held it in her arms happily and couldn't help but muttered: "You guys can't get used to it, so I will." If you want to be a greedy person, next time you come back, each of you has to give me one! If two people give me one, I won’t recognize it!"

After saying that, she raised her head and glanced at the man who was about the same age as her brother and Yu Quezhou. Seeing that he had a handsome and extraordinary face, she was a little surprised and her mood was a little complicated:

[I thought it was unusual for my brother and Yu Quezhou to become CEOs at their age...]

[In the end, everyone became president at such a young age? Has the outside world developed like this? Genius per capita? 】

[Help, this makes me look useless. Doesn’t that mean I’m the only loser in the family? 】

Soon, Xiang Wanning explained to herself happily:

[Well, if I am at home eating and waiting to die, everyone will be more motivated to make money! It’s great to be a little waste who only knows how to spend money! 】

Although he thought so, Xiang Wan Ning still extended his hand to the other party, introduced himself generously, smiled at him and said: "Hello, my name is Xiang Wan Ning."

Shen Yanli was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect that the sunny girl in front of her would be Xiang Wan Ning. She was in a daze for a moment, unable to connect her with Xiang Wan Ning in her previous life.

After he came to his senses, he gently held the other person's hand and said the same, "Hello, my name is Shen Yanli."

Xiang Wanning thought it was an ordinary meeting and glanced at him hastily.

After their brief introduction, Xiang Chisong walked away from Xiang Wan Ning in the name of wanting to talk. Finally, looking at her back, he asked Shen Yanli: "What's wrong? I saw you looking very surprised just now. "

"Indeed." Shen Yanli felt a little emotional, remembering the sadness that could not be concealed in her eyes in the previous life, and murmured: "It turns out that in another life, she would have lived so brightly."

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Xiang Chisong with a heavy gaze: "...Where is Zhinian?"

*

When they were about to go out, Xiang Wan Ning ran downstairs, wearing the gift she had just received from Mo Yin, and appeared in front of everyone.

It was a very beautiful dress, a purple off-shoulder dress hanging down to the floor, with sparkling sapphires on it, and a silver-white waist chain running through it, like a galaxy connecting countless stars. As she runs, she drifts like the wind, rises and falls, and is like a breathing universe.

"Mom!" She turned around in front of everyone and asked with a smile: "Is it suitable for me?"

No one answered.

Xiang Wan Ning raised his head in confusion and saw that they seemed to be stunned, staring at him so closely that their breathing stopped for a few moments.

Mo Yin endured it again and again, wiping away the glistening tears from the corners of her eyes by adjusting her hair. She smiled, suppressed her choked words, and tried to cheer herself up.

She praised: "It's so beautiful. I like you very much."

"Yeah, right~" Xiang Wanning shook his head proudly: "It's like it was tailor-made for me. Mom, where did you buy it? Do you know who the designer is? I want to remember who designed this dress. Designer, this is so beautiful! Does it have a name?”

She asked questions one after another, which were not difficult to answer. The four people standing in front of Xiang Wanning knew the answer to any one of them, but at this moment, everyone seemed to have lost their voices collectively.

How to answer?

They looked at Xiang Wan Ning, her eyes sparkling as if the sapphires set on her skirt were melting into her eyes. She was looking forward to their answer.

"The designer's name is Alice, but this dress has no name." Finally, it was Shen Yanli who spoke, "Since your aunt bought it for you and you like it so much, why not give it a name. "

Xiang Wanning, who was immersed in happiness, didn't notice the other party's address. She felt that what he said made sense. While thinking about what kind of name to give her favorite dress, she rubbed the skirt and couldn't put it down.

She was immersed in it, like the stars in the night sky.

Xiang Wan Ning said: "Then let's call it a star."

The moment she blurted out, she thought of countless verses related to the stars. She proudly clasped her hands behind her back and recited a few verses to everyone before finally holding her skirt and turning around.

Mo Yin saw Xiang Wan Ning jumping back, as if she remembered when Xiang Zhinian handed the gift box to her, she said: "I won't give a name this time, and I don't know if Wan Ning will like it in this life." , just leave the decision-making power to her."

Chinian, do you sisters have a tacit understanding?

Otherwise, why would Wan Ning still have the same name you used after all this time?

……

Since that day, Xiang Wanning always felt that everyone was hiding something from her.

The atmosphere at home has been a bit strange recently. Not only did Xiang Zhinian not come to school again, but Xiang Chisong and Yu Quezhou also left early and came back late. Apart from the housekeeper and servants, she was the only one at home most of the time.

She called Xiang Chisong, and there was a crisp sound of wine glasses clashing. Xiang Chisong smiled and explained to her: "The company has been very busy with entertainment recently, and my brother can't leave. It's late when I'm not at home." Ning should have a good time in class."

"Brother, drink less. Have you forgotten how drunk you were before?" Xiang Wan Ning complained, swallowed what he was about to ask, and could not say it out: "I understand, you take care of yourself, Let people worry less.”

After she hung up the phone, she felt uneasy again and called Xiang Zhinian, but she didn't get through.

Xiang Wanning was lying on the bed, listening to the voice announcement that the phone was not connected. She tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She stared blankly at the screen of her phone. For some reason, she felt very panicked.

It always felt like she was about to lose something.

Xiang Wanning couldn't help but clench her fingers, and even her breathing stopped due to her suspicion. She thought for a long time and finally called Yu Quezhou.

She regretted the call as soon as she dialed it out. She felt that it was a bit late, so she decided to wait until daytime to call again so as not to disturb the other party. Xiang Wanning thought this, and when he was about to hang up, the call was connected at that moment.

"What's wrong?" Yu Quezhou's smiling voice came from over there, but Xiang Wanning could hear a trace of fatigue in it.

She hesitated for a long time before asking: "Brother Yu, do you know where my sister has gone?"

Yu Quezhou fell silent.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Seeing that he didn't respond, Xiang Wanning instantly sat up from the bed and asked anxiously, "How is my sister?"

Countless doubts flooded into her mind. The scene when Xiang Zhinian saw her in the hospital made Xiang Wanning unable to help but worry. She felt like she couldn't breathe. A terrible suspicion hovered in her heart. After a while, she asked: "Is sister sick?" ?”

Yu Quezhou took the phone farther away, and cast his questioning eyes on a few people. Finally, when he saw the person in the middle shaking his head, he took the phone closer again and casually gave a reason: "No, it was just that she had I have been admitted to a foreign school and recently received an admission notice. I plan to go abroad to see it." At this point, he paused and said: "She...will come back after a while, don't worry."

"Is that so?" Xiang Wanning was a little skeptical: "Then why do you want to hide it from me?"

"I'm not hiding it from you. It's just that Chinen still has to take their entrance exam. If she tells you and fails to pass the exam, she, as a sister, will be very embarrassed."

Xiang Wanning is now 14 years old. Many of her doubts were dispelled by Yu Quezhou's sonorous and powerful words. She is still in her youth. After hearing this explanation, she thought about it from his perspective and found it understandable.

She breathed a sigh of relief and seemed relieved, but she was still very angry. She couldn't help scolding everyone, and finally said: "Sister is a big bad guy. If you didn't pass the exam, you didn't pass the exam. I won't say anything to her!"

"She'd better not pass the exam!" She cursed viciously: "She is destined to come back to high school with me, huh!"

After Xiang Wan Ning finished her childish remarks, she hung up the phone in annoyance.

In fact, she didn't completely believe what Yu Quezhou said, but Yu Quezhou was the only person who told her these things. She had to believe it, but she couldn't help but not believe it.

Xiang Wanning didn't understand that if Xiang Zhinian wasn't sick or had any accidents and was just passing the school exam... why would everyone hide it from her and why the family would keep silent about it.

But she knew that no one would tell her the truth, maybe because she was too young. Xiang Wan Ning stretched out her hand and scratched her head anxiously, wishing she could grow up ten years old overnight and be able to share everything with them.

She knew that everyone was protecting her, but she couldn't help but feel sad: But why should they hide it from her? Why should I be left alone?

Xiang Wanning paced back and forth in the room, her chest felt heavy, and she felt like she was being excluded from everyone, suffocating.

But even so, she comforted herself by thinking:

Could it be that I am overthinking it?

What if... what if things are really less than what my brother said?

Xiang Wan Ning thought for a moment, took out her phone again, edited a text message and sent it to her.

[Xiang Wan Ning: Sister, I wish you all the best (＾▽＾) I’ll be waiting for your return at home! 】

……

On the other side, inside the police station.

In the solemn atmosphere, Yu Quezhou hung up the phone, looked at the family waiting at the door, and walked over.

The police officer poured warm water for several people and reassured them: "Don't worry, the chief is just asking about her condition. If everything goes well, she will be able to go home soon!"

Speaking of this, the police officers praised them for being brave and resourceful, and for being able to clearly see what Country Z was doing against China and rushing to call the police. Before they could finish speaking, they saw the director leading Xiang Zhinian out of the room.

Several people stood up from the bench in an instant, and heard the director say: "We are aware of the situation, thank you for your cooperation. We will stay with Xiang Zhinian first, and the others can go back."

Although this was an expected answer, Mo Yin and others still looked at her worriedly, and Xiang Tingye tried to save her: "We cooperate with the police investigation, can we let her go home with us?"

"Sorry, this matter is extraordinary. Xiang Zhinian needs to stay at the police station. When everything is over, we will let her go and will not restrict her freedom." The director said, "Don't worry, I am doing this for her own good. If country Z wants to attack her, we can protect her."

"..."

Shen Yanli raised his head and looked at her from a distance across the crowd.

He also holds a glass in his hand, which makes him look comical in the scene. This was what he did in cooperation with Xiang Chisong when Xiang Wanning called him just now, just to convince the other party.

Even with the hat on, you can see that his hair is messy, there is a button missing at the collar, and the folds of his suit are not flat, it is obvious that he came here in a hurry. Shen Yanli had thought about seeing her again countless times. Maybe they would hug, kiss, and tell each other their love.

But I didn't expect to be here, in the police station, standing looking at her from a distance, unable to even take a step forward.

This is the first time in their lives that they have met.

Shen Yanli's throat slid, swallowing up countless words. He looked at her deeply and pressed the brim of his hat down to cover the tears in his eyes.

He took a step back.

At this step, he gave up his position, and the others hurried past him and stepped forward to carefully warn Xiang Zhinian.

The director didn't stop everyone, he just watched with the police officers, and then asked Shen Yanli who was standing aside doubtfully: "Who are you to her? Why don't you say goodbye?"

The director reminded: "In order to protect her, we will not let her leave until this matter is over."

Shen Yanli thought a lot. In his previous life, he could call himself "fiancé" and be her lover, but in this life, he has nothing and can't say anything.

Xiang Zhinian is only 14 years old now. What would others think if she spoke out? Even though the director said this, it was still an experiment. He wanted to see how everyone treated her. Who knew what he thought about her? Do you think she is abnormal? Do you think that the experimental subjects are not normal people and will definitely lose control?

He couldn't even go up and hug her, because their itineraries in this life had no intersection. He had just returned home in a hurry, and there was no possibility of getting to know her. He was afraid that if he couldn't control his strange emotions, it would arouse the director's suspicion and make Xiang Zhinian's situation even worse.

but……

But Shen Yanli still wanted to talk about their relationship, even a little hint or something different. He didn't want to say anything about denying his relationship with Xiang Zhinian.

He looked at Xiang Zhinian in the center of the crowd.

At the same moment, Xiang Zhinian also raised his head and briefly met his eyes. At that moment, it seemed like thousands of words were melted into his heart.

Shen Yanli measured the distance between him and her with his eyes. It was about ten steps. He could walk in front of her in just a few seconds.

——You can walk in front of her.

But in the end, despite the slightly suspicious views of the chief and other police officers next to him, he just smiled.

"The Shen family and the Xiang family are cooperating. I just came with them out of humanitarian spirit." Shen Yanli said to the director: "I don't know her and I'm not familiar with her."
