Xin Zimo didn't answer her immediately, but fell into deep thought. After a while, he changed his solemn expression and smiled lightly: "Didn't Uncle Chen just say that he wanted to show us the scenery in London."
He deliberately bit the word "we" hard, and a little warmth appeared in his eyes again.
Du Anran didn't dare to say "nothing to see", just curled his lips and continued to drink tea.
Seeing her bowing her head, Xin Zimo couldn't help raising the corners of her lips: "Don't you like going out with me?"
"No!" She quickly denied it, but immediately realized that she reacted too quickly and meant to be perfunctory, so she immediately bowed her head and remained silent.
"Your eyes have betrayed you a long time ago." Xin Zimo knew she didn't want to, but he wasn't annoyed. He had a rare good temper.
In London, it only belonged to the two of them. As long as she still followed him, even if it was perfunctory, he was willing to treat her well.
But... Xin Zimo frowned, and it was not a good thing for someone to follow her.
"Why don't you drink tea? It's getting cold..." Seeing that he was lost in thought, Du Anran couldn't help pointing to the tea channel in front of him.
"I don't drink." Xin Zimo leaned on the sofa. After being interrupted by her like this, he didn't have the mind to think about following her. He just looked at her and said, "Are you hungry? Would you like some snacks?"
Du Anran shook his head quickly: "I'm not hungry." He ordered a lot of food on the plane, and if he keeps feeding him like this, he will become so fat.
He seemed to have seen through her little thoughts, and said with a smile, "I don't dislike being so fat."
Du Anran thought, he doesn't dislike him, but she herself dislikes herself.
"If you're really fat and become a steamed stuffed bun, it's the best. You can pinch it for me if you have nothing to do. It must feel good." Xin Zimo smirked, "The place that should be fat should still be fat."
Du Anran looked into his eyes, immediately understood what he meant, and blushed half.Knowing that talking to him would always be self-defeating, she simply kept silent.
This small room with only the two of them is very warm, with light yellow lights and light piano music pouring out like flowing water.While drinking tea, Du Anran looked at the scenery outside the building. There was a church in the distance, and white pigeons were flying outside the church.
Xin Zimo closed his eyes slightly, leaning on the sofa, listening to the piano music quietly.
It wasn't until it was getting dark that Xin Zimo took Du Anran away.
Uncle Chen was already waiting for them, Du Anran looked at the darkening sky outside the car and said, "Do you often come to London?"
Xin Zimo closed his eyes: "If I have to, I won't come here."
Du Anran didn't understand the meaning of his words, and didn't think much about it.
When the domestic sky was completely dark, Chi Xue appeared in a bar wearing sunglasses.
The bar is very noisy, full of dazzling music, deafening DJ sound, and crazy screams of women, mixed together, mixing with the shining colorful lights.
The combination of light and shadow made Chi Xue dizzy.
She is a child of a high-ranking red cadre, and the education she has received since she was a child made her never come to this kind of place.But the man seemed to like to pick something out of the ordinary every time we met.
The last time was in an underground garage at the airport, this time in a noisy bar.
She successfully found the private room he booked, closed the door, and her voice became much quieter.
The table is full of various styles of wine, cocktails, whiskey, red wine... and the man is carefully mixing his own wine, looking very devoted.
"It's rare for you to be so serious in such a noisy place." Chi Xue sat opposite him and took off her sunglasses.She never wears makeup, but now, her plain face looks even more beautiful under the light.
"As long as I am willing to do something, I will be serious." The man mixed a glass of wine and handed it to Chi Xue, "Try it."
"I don't drink, thank you." Chi Xue declined politely. She had always been a good girl in front of Mother Xin, and she didn't want Mother Xin to smell of alcohol.
"Really?" The man chuckled, "How do I remember that on the day your store opened, when you and Xin Zimo appeared at the banquet arm in arm, you were very drunk?"
Chi Xue frowned, who is this man?Many of the guests at the opening of her shop were invited by Xin Mu and Xin Zimo, most of whom she didn't even know his name, and she had no memory of this man at all.
"Who are you?" Chi Xue couldn't help asking.
She always felt that this man knew her well, but she knew nothing about him.
The man picked up the goblet, shook the cup, and said a few words gracefully: "Xie Chenjin."
Chi Xue stood up suddenly in shock, and looked at him in disbelief: "Are you Xie Chenjin?"
She has heard of Xie Chenjin's name for a long time, but she has never met him. No wonder, Mr. Xie has never had any scandals, and he refuses any media interviews. It is reasonable for her not to know him.
"What's wrong?" Xie Chenjin smiled lightly, "Is my name that scary?"
Even though Chi Xue knew little about the business world, she had heard a little about Xin's desire to acquire Xie's Bank.Now, she is actually cooperating with Xin's opponent!
Chi Xue felt that she had done something wrong, and was a little emotional: "Did you come to me on purpose?"
"How can you say that." There was no displeasure on Xie Chenjin's face, only a smile, "Everyone gets what they need."
"I don't want to cooperate with you!" Chi Xue said angrily, she really didn't know that this man was Xie Chenjin, the number one talent in the financial world.
"Don't want to be the young mistress of the Xin family?" Xie Chenjin said with a smile.
"Without you, I can still be there!" Chi Xue said, "But if I give you money, I betray Zimo!"
"Really? If you can become Mrs. Xin's young lady without me, you won't discuss this deal with me, will you?" Xie Chenjin said, "Besides, if the Xin family really has to buy Xie's Bank, but It's just icing on the cake, without the Xie family, the Xin family can still thrive."
Xie Chenjin didn't mention anything else. Based on his judgment, Chi Xue wouldn't know any more business secrets.She didn't even know that Xin Zimo was determined to win the acquisition of the Xie family and had invested a large sum of money.
But these are always the top business secrets, and it is impossible for Chi Xue to know.
Sure enough, Chi Xue hesitated: "If I give you money, it will undoubtedly save the Xie family and make the Xin family unjust."
Chi Xue is not stupid, she still understands this simple truth.
"For a banking industry, what can you do with that money?"
"Since this money is like a drop in the bucket, why do you still make this deal with me?" Chi Xue was very puzzled.
"Of course I have my own ideas for doing this." Xie Chenjin didn't continue. In fact, no matter what happens, everything is interlocking. He only needs to use this money to open up a certain joint, and the entire Xie family crisis can be easily resolved.Besides, he was also very happy for Chi Xue to be the young wife of the Xin family.
Chi Xue didn't ask any more questions, but just sat down again, and she stretched out her hand: "Where's the photo?"
This showed that she was willing to cooperate. Xie Chenjin really pursed his lips and smiled, and handed her a glass of wine: "Drink and chat."
Chi Xue took the wine glass, and Xie Chenjin also took out a few photos and put them in front of her.
The first one was getting off the plane. Both Xin Zimo and Du Anran were wearing sunglasses. They were very low-key and didn't show much intimacy, but Xin Zimo's lips were curled into a smile.
In the second picture, Xin Zimo and Du Anran are sitting side by side in the back of a Porsche, with only the back, and their expressions cannot be seen clearly.
In the third picture, outside a luxurious villa, Xin Zimo half blocked Du Anran's body and brought her into the villa.
There are only three, and Chi Xue is obviously very dissatisfied: "That's all?"
"Don't worry, it's only been a day." Xie Chenjin said that the people he placed in London were almost discovered by Xin Zimo in order to get these photos, but fortunately, it was not a big problem.
"I hope to see something useful." Chi Xue returned the photo to him.
"Is it useful? Do you want to be more explosive or restricted?" Xie Chenjin smiled.
Chi Xue was very conflicted, she naturally didn't want to see these photos, but she also wanted to know how far Xin Zimo and Du Anran had developed.
Chi Xue didn't speak, Xie Chenjin continued: "You can rest assured in what I do."
"Why did you help me?" Chi Xue said.
"I said, everyone gets what they need. Remember, within seven days, 500 million." Xie Chenjin shook his wine glass.
"No problem." Chi Xue took a sip of his wine.
Chi Xue and Xie Chenjin didn't chat for too long, and left the bar in a hurry after a few symbolic drinks.
Before leaving, she looked at Xie Chenjin, who was still sober after drinking a few bottles of wine, and said, "Ask me out in the future, don't stay in this kind of place, I don't like it very much."
As soon as she finished speaking, she left, and Xie Chenjin looked at her back, shook his head and smiled.
Chi Xue drove the Ferrari that Xin's mother gave her around the commercial circle of city A for a long time, and only met Xie Chenjin twice, but for some reason, she couldn't figure out Xie Chenjin, just like she couldn't figure out Xin Zimo.
But there is a big difference between the two. Xin Zimo is cold and rejects people thousands of miles away, while Xie Chenjin gives people a sense of distance hidden in a smile.
Of course, these two people also have something in common. For example, both of them can drink very well, and I don't know if they can develop this ability after spending a long time in the mall.
If these two had a drink together, who would get drunk first...
Chi Xue probably thought her idea was quite funny. These two people probably would never be able to get together.
It's just that the Xin family now wants to buy the Xie family, but she is helping the Xie family. If Xin Zimo and Xin's mother find out about this, she must have nothing good to eat.
But after thinking about it, the Xie family should be dispensable to the Xin family, even if the acquisition fails, it won't have much impact.
Thinking of it this way, she felt much more balanced.
At the end of the year, city A was extremely prosperous, and lights and festoons had begun everywhere, and the city at night was even more luxurious and feasting.
When she drove back to Xin's house, Mother Xin was sitting on the sofa in the living room looking at a large stack of documents.With a cup of steaming coffee in hand, the little yellow cat Xin's mother raised recently was lazily lying at the foot of the sofa with its eyes closed.
Seeing Chi Xue coming back, the little yellow cat immediately opened its eyes vigilantly, and probably recognized Chi Xue, and ran over slowly after a while, rubbing Chi Xue's ankle.
"Ah Huang, are you being good today?" Chi Xue knelt down and picked up the kitten.
"Meow..." Ah Huang called out softly, the cat was too small to barely open its eyes.
Mother Xin also saw Chi Xue, and she smiled: "Ah Huang is very obedient, but it likes to run to your room to scratch the door when you're not around, and it can't be coaxed down."
"Ah Huang, you miss me so much, I'll buy you something delicious tomorrow." Chi Xue teased Ah Huang.
"It's very picky and won't drink anything other than milk." Mother Xin laughed.
"It's all because of me being spoiled." Chi Xue smiled dotingly.
"It's not that you can't afford it, you can buy it what it likes to drink. When you have children, you have to learn to give them the best things."
"Auntie, it's just that Brother Zimo doesn't like kittens and puppies. I'm afraid he will be angry when he comes back and finds out that Ahuang is here." Chi Xue touched Ahuang's head, feeling aggrieved.
Ah Huang also let out a "meow", and hid in Chi Xue's arms, for fear of sending him away.
"In the past few years, I have indulged him. He has Xin's family and he doesn't pay attention to me. He doesn't like kittens and dogs, so I want to keep Ah Huang in Xin's family." Xin Mother said angrily.

Du Anran shook his head quickly: "I'm not hungry." He ordered a lot of food on the plane, and if he keeps feeding him like this, he will become so fat.
He seemed to have seen through her little thoughts, and said with a smile, "I don't dislike being so fat."
Du Anran thought, he doesn't dislike him, but she herself dislikes herself.
