C169 (1/2)

If he really cared about her, he wouldn't have brought her to meet that kind of person.

Qiao Xuan's heart turned cold, although he did not struggle free, his body was still mechanically cooperating.

Someone came down to pick them up, and brought them to an antique private room. There were paintings of mountains and rivers on the wall, and there were even miniature fake mountains, flowing water, and bamboo forests in the room. Even the dining table was an antique wood.

”How about this place, is it beautiful?” A young man in a white Tang suit came in from behind them, smiling proudly as he asked.

”Thank you. Only you can find such a place.” Sheng Liang embraced Qiao Xuan's shoulders and introduced him to her, ”He is Yang Sen.”

”Hello, Miss Qiao.” Yang Sen smiled meaningfully at Sheng Liang, then extended his hand towards Qiao Xuan.

Qiao Xuan was a little confused. Didn't they say that they needed to see the investors, but this Yang Sen seemed to be very familiar with Sheng Liang. To be more precise, Qiao Xuan rarely saw him talking to other people in such a relaxed manner, or rather, it should be said that he was very familiar with Sheng Liang. Affability.

Seeing that Yang Sen wanted to shake hands with her, Qiao Xuan instinctively reached out his hand, ”Hello.”

But halfway through, Sheng Liang suddenly held her hand, looked at Yang Sen and said: ”Forget about these clichés, where are the others?”

”For such an important day like this, I naturally have to meticulously prepare.” Yang Sen pretended to be disappointed and looked meaningfully at Qiao Xuan as he retracted his hand.

Qiao Xuan secretly glanced at Sheng Liang. She was sure that she had been deceived again, the reason he brought her here was definitely not for some movie investment.

”I suddenly remember that I have something important to do, so I'll be leaving first.” Qiao Xuan withdrew his hand from Sheng Liang's palm and turned to leave.

Sheng Liang did not move, and asked softly: ”Today is my birthday, can't I stay?”

Qiao Xuan's footsteps suddenly stopped. She didn't seem to know about his birthday at all.

She had read about him before, but his birthday hadn't even appeared on the tabloids.

Seeing that Qiao Xuan did not turn around, Yang Sen also added, ”That's right, you can stay.

After so many years, was this his first birthday? Qiao Xuan's heart softened as he slowly turned around, ”Sorry, I didn't know it was your birthday, so I didn't prepare a present.”

”The best gift is that you can stay.” Sheng Liang's voice was low, but his eyes were jumping with joy.

Qiao Xuan didn't know how to react. Coincidentally, a few people walked in at this time, there were two men she didn't know, and the other two were Mo Lin and Luo Keke.

From the looks of it, these people were his friends, and very important ones at that.

Luo Keke walked over and hugged Qiao Xuan for a bit, then said lightly: ”It's great that you're here, today is truly very important to A Liang.”

Qiao Xuan felt that what they were saying was important, and definitely not because today was Sheng Liang's birthday.

”Look what I brought,” said Morin, shaking the two bottles of champagne in his hand. ”Don Perignon, in 2002, must drink champagne on such a festive day.”

”Speaking of which, you are also a beneficiary. Two bottles of champagne is too insatiable.” Yang Sen mocked.
