他突然走近了一点,他的问题似乎带着一丝好奇.
她毫不犹豫地回答."不,我没有."
"嗯?"荣兆南静静地看着她.她轻轻地把他推到一边."在我们见面之前,我已经知道你是谁了.不需要调查.
她从他手里接过文件,挥手示意他走."你可以走;我需要改变.
荣兆南呆在原地,目送她离去.目前尚不清楚是她说的话逗乐了他,还是情况本身,但他的表情很温暖,略带逗乐.
换好衣服后,沈明走进房间,注意到荣兆南已经开始在温泉附近和燕书聊天了.江少陌走过来,递给她一杯香槟.她质疑地看了他一眼,询问那边的情况.
江少墨笑了笑,但没有回答,显然被这么短的时间内,她的客人被别人扫地出门而感到好笑.不理想.
她钻进水里,把饮料放在一边,强行他们的谈话中."你们俩似乎相处得很好,聊了这么久.想吃点东西吗?
她打了个响指,很快就有个服务员端来了水果和饮料.沈明摆摆手,示意他们应该送到燕书那里.
沈明递给荣昭南一块瓜,随口问道:"你们俩认识吗?
有荣兆南在,江绍莫就不需要介绍任何人了.燕淑可爱细腻,眼中闪耀着智慧的光芒——显然是一个犀利的年轻女子.
荣兆南笑着,咬了一口瓜."我上次跟你说的那场小型音乐会?严淑是主唱.
真是巧合.燕书啜饮着西瓜汁,目光飘向沈明.她没有对其余的发表评论,但她不禁注意到沈明令人惊叹.
"这是谁?"
荣兆南随口回答道:"江少墨的朋友,沈明.
燕书很快就明白了."哦,原来你是江少墨的朋友."
"没错,"沈明笑着说."那你呢?你们俩是怎么认识的?
荣兆南很快回答道:"我们在高峰论坛上见过面.我和沈明相处得很好.
高峰论坛不仅仅是普通的活动.显然,沈明不是一个普通人.
燕书眼睛一亮,连忙笑了起来."沈明,你真漂亮.你从事娱乐行业吗?你看起来好熟悉.我以为我以前在什么地方见过你.
她的脸不是一张容易忘记的脸."也许是一颗冉冉升起的新星?"
她善于言辞,这个女孩."如果容先生要赞助一部电影,我肯定会成为女主角.但看起来荣先生对娱乐业不感兴趣.
"拍电影?"燕书眼睛一亮.她立即与沈明就这个问题进行了接触.容兆南见时机成熟,明智地为自己找了个借口,把谈话留给了他们两个.
"I should've known that if Mr. Rong was coming today, I wouldn't need to worry about things," Jiang Shaomo teased, casually chatting with Rong Zhaonan.Rong Zhaonan, with his witty and friendly demeanor, made everyone around him feel at ease. Unlike some high-class young men, he wasn't arrogant.
"Not at all. I'm the one benefiting here. It's rare for me to get some leisure time. This place is great. The atmosphere and design are unique."
They continued chatting as the hot springs wrapped up.Shen Ming quickly realized that Jiang Shaomo seemed quite enthusiastic about the friends she brought with her.The two quickly warmed up to each other.
After finishing her bath, Shen Ming pulled Jiang Shaomo aside to talk."What are the plans for tonight?"
"The forecast says there'll be a meteor shower tonight, so I've arranged for stargazing on the rooftop."
When it came to social matters, Jiang Shaomo was always a reliable choice."I've got a good read on Yan Shu. That girl has the heart of an artist," Shen Ming commented, then added in a more serious tone, "But you seem to have gotten awfully close to him in such a short amount of time."
Jiang Shaomo replied with a grin,"Mr. Rong is a fun person. I'm only sorry I didn't meet him sooner."
Shen Ming smiled, but there was a hint of caution in her eyes."People in high society are all smiles and fangs, so be careful. You won't be able to read them easily."
Jiang Shaomo laughed."So, does that mean you're one of them too?"
Shen Ming shook her head."Not at all. I'm the exception." She gave him a knowing smile. "I'm not part of their world."
That evening, Shen Ming deliberately waited until later to join the stargazing event.The cold wind was biting, and when she arrived, she found Rong Zhaonan and Yan Shu already setting up a tripod, chatting happily.
Jiang Shaomo handed her a telescope."Know how to use this? The night sky looks beautiful. Yan Shu can take some pictures of you with it later."
Shen Ming took the telescope and played around with it for a while.Who knew more about the stars than she did?
But as she adjusted the focus, she caught sight of something far in the distance—at the mountaintop hotel, through the telescope lens, she saw Rong Zhaonan, along with a beautiful young woman who was clearly his companion for the evening.
The woman was striking, and though Shen Ming hadn't seen her up close, she immediately recognized her as a recent rising star in the entertainment industry.Earlier that day, Yan Shu had been saying she was grooming her to be a future big star.
Rong Zhaonan seemed to be enjoying the moment, his hand brushing against the beautiful woman's while she handed him a drink.Everyone was laughing, and the young beauty blushed.
Shen Ming's heart was seething with anger.
She had believed his lies about being busy with business meetings.But seeing this, the truth was clear.She lowered the telescope and looked around, feeling a bitter rush of disappointment.
Without saying much, she turned to Jiang Shaomo and said,"The wind's too cold up here. You guys enjoy yourselves, I'm heading back."
She didn't participate in the rest of the activities.What was supposed to be a rare, romantic moment was all for Rong Zhaonan.He and Yan Shu had a blast.
Shen Ming spent half an hour in the freezing pool to clear her mind.When she finally got out, chilled to the bone, the cold wind made her cough.
The mountaintop wind was indeed cold.
Jiang Shaomo didn't press her about her departure and knew she had returned to the hotel, so he didn't worry about the rest.
Shen Ming, seeing the time was right, sent Rong Zhaonan a message."Something came up. I'm heading down the mountain now. You guys enjoy yourselves."
Wrapped in her coat, she walked toward the parking lot to leave. But when she saw the dim light under a streetlamp, she noticed a figure standing there.
It was Rong Zhaonan, wearing the same mountain jacket she had, with his hands in his pockets, smiling at her.
"You brought me up here, but you're leaving without me?"
Her mood had been affected by Rong Zhaonan, but seeing Rong Zhaonan standing before her made her feel a little guilty for ignoring him all night.
"There's something I need to do. It's too late. Tomorrow, I'll have Jiang Shaomo take you back."
Rong Zhaonan moved closer and spoke gently."It's too late, and I'm not letting you go alone. I'll take you down."
His words seemed to dissolve the tension in the air.
As they drove down, the car was stopped halfway down the mountain.There was a traffic jam.
After a few minutes, someone knocked on the window.
It was one of Rong Zhaonan's assistants—Xiao Ming.
He knocked on the window by Rong Zhaonan's side."Mr. Rong, your father wants you to get out of the car."
