Back at the entrance of the Hilton Hotel, Zhao Heng didn't go straight to his room after getting out of the car. Instead, he walked into a bakery nearby. Looking at the alluring variety of desserts in the clean display window, Zhao Heng couldn't help but have an appetite. Even though he had already eaten a piece of steak at noon, his current hunger made him want to eat cake uncontrollably.
When Zhao Heng's fingers quickly asked for seven or eight small cakes and four ice creams from the black waiter, he realized that he had made another low-level but embarrassing mistake. His wallet and phone were both on Bai Gousheng. He signaled the smiling waiter to wait for a while, and then he was about to walk out of the shop and call Bai Gousheng. At this moment, a clear voice rang out.
"Zhao Heng!"
Zhao Heng was slightly stunned. He turned his head and saw Se Xiaoshuang walking towards him with a face full of joy. The girl in a white dress was youthful and full of vitality, showing the vitality of her age. Then he heard Se Xiaoshuang add with a smile, "I only heard that you were staying here, but I didn't know which room you were in. I was about to call you, but I didn't expect you to be downstairs!"
The girl's smile was especially sweet and bright. This was the taste of happiness and sweetness. When Zhao Heng saw Se Xiaoshuang appear and saw a rich lady flash in the distance, the black waiter behind saw that Zhao Heng hadn't paid the bill for a long time. He smiled and asked politely, "Sir, do you still want your cake and ice cream?"
"Yes, yes!"
Zhao Heng turned his head to respond to the black waiter while subconsciously feeling his pockets. He then patted his head and was about to call Bai Gousheng, but Se Xiaoshuang walked into the shop first. She took out her wallet and handed the waiter a hundred dollars. "Hehe, you forgot to bring your wallet again, didn't you? It's okay, I have it. I'll pay for you. You can pay me back next time. "
Zhao Heng smiled bitterly. "How can I accept this?"
Se Xiaoshuang deftly took back the change and then handed a bag of food to Zhao Heng. "What's there to be embarrassed about? You've helped me so much, what's wrong with me paying a little for you? Besides, if you're embarrassed to ask me to pay for you, how are you going to solve this problem? Are you going to throw the food back? That's very, it's very. "

Se Xiaoshuang seemed to have guessed that Zhao Heng would ask her, so she smiled and told the man in front of her the purpose of her visit. "I was afraid that you would forget things, so I specially came to inform you!" When Zhao Heng Se Xiaoshuang reminded her with a helpless expression, the girl added softly, "You have to remember to be on time tonight. Grandpa said that he wants to apologize to you on the spot!"
The corners of Zhao Heng's mouth twitched. After a moment of hesitation, he finally nodded. "Alright, I'll be there on time tonight!" He even revealed a bitter smile. "Actually, you didn't need to come over. I remember that it's my grandfather's birthday banquet. Even if you were worried that I would forget, a phone call would be enough. Why did you come all the way here? After all, it's not peaceful these few days. It's better to stay at home. "
Se Xiaoshuang smiled faintly. "it's okay. Anyway, I'm idle. I'm not worried that something will happen to me. Don't worry. I won't disturb you. I'll go back later. I have to go to the hotel to help. I won't disturb your work!" She also took out two hundred dollars from her wallet and stuffed it into Zhao Heng's hand with a smile. "You often forget to bring money. Here it is!"
Zhao Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "No, I didn't bring any money. It's just a coincidence!"
Se Xiaoshuang ignored Zhao Heng's refusal. "I'll lend it to you. If you don't accept it, you look down on me!"
"Of course, he looks up to you, but I look down on you!"
Without waiting for Se Xiaoshuang to finish her words, the woman in luxurious clothes, who had been standing at the door acting strangely, couldn't help but take over the topic. Then, high-heeled shoes came in. Zhao Heng clearly caught the light in her eyes, which was a touch of hostility to himself. Se Xiaoshuang heard the words and was stunned. Then she turned her head and lost her voice. "Mom, why are you here?"
Mom?
Zhao Heng was stunned and then realized who was sneaky. It turned out to be Se Xiaoshuang's mother. He turned his mind and knew what the woman in luxurious clothes was thinking. Sure enough, the woman in luxurious clothes snorted heavily and arrogantly walked to the door of the two people and said, "Why am I here? If I didn't come, would you give yourself to him? "
Although the woman in luxurious clothes in her forties was not as delicate as Se Xiaoshuang, her facial features were also very beautiful. Her whole body exuded the charm of a mature woman. Her black trousers reflected her slender figure incisively and vividly. With a touch of nude makeup, she was about 1.7 meters tall. With the nearly ten centimeters high heels, she was completely the style of a standard model.
She had a look of disappointment on her face. "Yesterday, you paid for his car fare. Today, you paid for his meal. You really take care of him. I thought that the man who could let you pay the bill and invite him to the banquet would be amazing. I didn't expect that he's just a poor boy who can't even afford a cake. Don't you think it's meaningless to put in this kind of effort?"
She looked at Zhao Heng with an invisible contempt. Obviously, she regarded the latter as a soft-rice king. "Yesterday, your grandfather said that you brought a boy home. You were so happy and in love. Although he said that boys are not very reliable and like to be self-righteous, I don't think your taste is so bad. So today, I came over to take a look. I didn't expect …"
"He's even more unreliable than your grandfather said!"
Se Xiaoshuang subconsciously took back the money and pulled her mother. "Mom —"
Hearing her daughter's anxious and confrontational voice, the unhappy expression on the woman's face eased a little. Then, she sat elegantly on a European-style sofa in the bakery. This elegance was obviously engraved in her bones since she was a child. It was not deliberately pretentious. Se Xiaoshuang's small hand grabbed Zhao Heng's hand tightly. She gritted her teeth and looked at her mother, as if she was afraid that her mother would destroy the relationship between the two.
The atmosphere was oppressive. Everyone kept silent.
Just as Zhao Heng was about to break the silence and explain, the woman in the luxurious dress tilted her head slightly to Se Xiaoshuang. "Xiaoshuang, you go outside first. I'll talk to him." The woman in the luxurious dress spoke with an unquestionable strength. Then, she looked at Zhao Heng coldly. She could never entrust her daughter to a man who couldn't even afford to eat. "Xiaoshuang, go out and stay for a while."
Se Xiaoshuang shook her head stubbornly. "I don't —"
The woman in the luxurious dress frowned slightly and threw out another sentence. "Don't worry, I know what to do!"
When Se Xiaoshuang shook her head without hesitation, Zhao Heng smiled faintly. "Xiaoshuang, let me stay with auntie for a while. Don't worry, I'm fine!"
Se Xiaoshuang looked at her mother with a complicated expression. Finally, she gritted her teeth and nodded. Step by step, she left the bakery and walked out of the door. Her eyes were filled with reluctance and anxiety. She didn't know what her mother would say to Zhao Heng, but she knew that it wouldn't be good. She was worried that Zhao Heng wouldn't be able to stand it and wouldn't contact her anymore. Fortunately, Zhao Heng smiled at her at this time and warmed her heart.
The woman in the luxurious dress felt inexplicably uncomfortable. She had raised her daughter for 20 years. As a mother, she was not as useful as a young man with an unknown background. She didn't know if her mother was too much of a failure or the so-called love was too overbearing. However, looking at her daughter who went out, her face softened a little. "You didn't use Xiaoshuang as a bargaining chip to talk to me. Be a little manly!"
Zhao Heng sat down opposite her and smiled noncommittally. "Thank you for your praise, auntie!"
The woman in the luxurious dress stared sharply at Zhao Heng in front of her and said with a sharp voice, "I've never been a snobbish person, nor will I follow the trend. However, I also look down on men who don't even have money to eat. I don't know how many times Xiaoshuang has helped you, but she paid for your car fare yesterday and bought bread for you today. Do you think this is a shame for men?"
Zhao Heng sighed. "Auntie, you misunderstood –"
"There's no misunderstanding. I don't believe your reason. I only believe in my own eyes!"
The woman in the luxurious dress didn't give Zhao Heng a chance to refute. She blocked Zhao Heng's mouth with a string of pearls and cannons. Many times, it wasn't called snobbery. It was called being responsible for one's daughter. The hearts of parents in the world were pitiful. As children who were not parents, they rarely understood the difficulties. When Zhao Heng leaned on the sofa and smiled bitterly, the woman in the luxurious dress went straight to the point. "You probably know the situation of our family!"
"The gap between you and Xiaoshuang is too big. It's not suitable for the two of you to be together!"
Zhao Heng opened his mouth and felt endless helplessness. He hadn't even started to Se Xiaoshuang. Then, the woman in the luxurious dress knocked on the coffee table with her finger and said, "Now you have two choices. First, we will give you 100,000 yuan. If you leave Xiaoshuang, with 100,000 yuan, you can easily gain a foothold in this city. Second, you continue to insist on pestering Xiaoshuang and lose both her and the money!"
"You can think about it and choose one!"
The woman in the luxurious dress crossed her legs and looked at Zhao Heng elegantly. Although she was just sitting with her hands folded, it didn't affect her superior aura at all. "Although I'm being direct now, which will make you feel uncomfortable and will more or less hurt your self-esteem, I'm talking to you with sincerity. I will introduce young and promising men to Xiaoshuang tonight."
"So you have no chance with Xiaoshuang at all. Just take the 100,000 yuan and leave."
Zhao Heng heard this and smiled. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he shook his head. When the woman in the luxurious dress saw Zhao Heng smiling noncommittally, her eyes couldn't help but become sharp. Could it be that Zhao Heng knew that she only had one daughter? Getting Xiaoshuang was equivalent to getting hundreds of 100,000 yuan? If this was the case, this kid was a bit scheming. It seemed that she had to take drastic measures.
"I won't force you now. I'll give you some time to think about it!"
Thinking of this, her eyes turned playfully. "Xiaoshuang invited you to the banquet, so the Se family will definitely welcome you!"
The woman in the luxurious dress stood up. "After the birthday banquet tonight, remember to give me a satisfactory answer!"
