Chapter 348 Entertainment Circle (21)
The confusion on Shen Xichao's face was too obvious to Yan Qing. Her eyes flickered and she felt that there was a chance that Shen Xichao could leave this time.
Yan Qing's eyes changed color, and she was ready to make another effort to send Shen Xichao away.
Therefore, she quickly showed a hint of self-blame on her face, and did not insist on asking Shen Xichao about his specific arrangements. Instead, she whispered, "It's all because of me that Brother Xichao is in such a difficult situation."
At the same time, Yan Qing's voice had just fallen when Shen Xichao's phone lit up again. It was a communication request.
From his elder brother Shen Celiang.
Even if Shen Xichao didn't answer the call, he knew that it was Shen Celiang urging him to come over quickly.
He couldn't help but tighten his grip on the phone, but thinking of Yan Qing's words, he tried to comfort her in a gentle tone: "Ah Qing, it's not your fault, don't blame yourself."
Hearing this, Yan Qing's cold eyes were filled with some stubbornness, as if he wanted to get to the bottom of the matter.
"What's that for?"
Shen Xichao paused, his eyes filled with an indescribable complexity.
The phone was automatically hung up because no one answered it for a long time. Shen Celiang sent a few more messages. He glanced at them from the corner of his eye, and after catching a few words, his expression became even more depressed.
Finally, Shen Xichao could only sigh in his heart and explained in a deep voice: "It's just that I have to meet some people I don't want to see."
He didn't explain it too clearly, and attributed all his current troubles to this, hoping that Yan Qing would stop blaming himself.
In fact, this was not a complete lie. Apart from being worried about Yan Qing, a big part of the reason was that he did not want to see anyone from the Shen family except Shen Celiang.
As soon as these words came out, Yan Qing's eyes flickered, and He Siran next to him was also a little surprised. There was actually someone that Brother Shen had to meet. It was really... incredible.
After all, although Brother Shen seems to have a good temper in front of Sister Qingqing, He Siran will not be fooled by this illusion.
She will never forget what happened when she went to a party with Brother Shen.
It was said that the organizer of that party was quite powerful and had top resources at his disposal. He Siran saw several influential celebrities in the entertainment industry going over to chat with him, wanting to establish a relationship with the man who was attending the organizer.
Shen Xichao also talked about cooperation with that person. At the beginning, they were in a very pleasant situation. Later, that person said something and He Siran saw Brother Shen's face suddenly turned gloomy.
The wrist holding the wine glass twisted, and the glass of red wine splashed onto the man's face without warning.
His voice was as cold as snow, and his eyes were as cold as if he was looking at a dead person.
"Who do you think you are to dare to set your sights on her?"
The moment Shen Xichao said this, He Siran had many guesses in his mind. In the end, his guess stopped on a name.
The "she" in Brother Shen's words should be Sister Qingqing, otherwise Brother Shen would not be so angry.
However, the thought only flashed through her mind at the time. When the thought disappeared again, her heart rose to her throat again.
Brother Shen is a bit too impulsive. This is a potential financial sponsor. What if the other party wants to ban Brother Shen and Sister Qingqing in anger?
Perhaps sensing her anxious mood, He Siran saw Shen Xichao slowly wiping the red wine stains on his hands with a silk scarf, ignoring the shocked or gloating looks around him, and his tone was extremely cold.
"He's not that capable of doing anything to me."
These words were said in front of the person concerned, almost throwing that person's face to the ground and stepping on it a few times.
He Siran secretly looked at the man's face, which had become colorful, red and green.
Just when He Siran thought the other party was going to get angry, the man's ugly face twisted for a moment, and then he forced out a little apologetic smile, with a hint of fear hidden deep in his pupils.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen. I made a mistake. I will drink three cups as punishment to make amends to Mr. Shen."
As the man spoke, wine was dripping down his face, but he didn't dare to reach out to wipe it. He just picked up the glass and started drinking.
Shen Xichao glanced at him coldly, ignored the man, and left the banquet with He Siran without saying a word.
Everyone in the entertainment industry is a shrewd person. After Shen Xichao and the others left, they all had different expressions. They all guessed that Shen Xichao's identity was not simple, and probably much more complicated than they had previously guessed.
Things had developed to this point, so naturally the banquet could not be held.
When everyone said goodbye and left, they were warned by the organizer of the banquet not to reveal what happened today. Therefore, out of all these considerations, everyone nodded in agreement and kept their mouths shut about it, only feeling more wary and suspicious of Shen Xichao in their hearts.
This person must be someone special, so I'd better not offend him if I can...
He Siran had left long before he knew what happened afterwards.
But putting all that aside, Shen Xichao's series of actions at the banquet alone had already caused a storm in He Siran's heart and left a deep impression in her mind.
Later, during Sister Qingqing's rest days, He Siran also followed Shen Xichao to negotiate several collaborations... uh... although she was just serving tea and water on the side, it didn't matter, because the collaborations negotiated by Brother Shen were negotiated by her!
What’s important is that during those negotiations, He Siran once again saw how polite those people were to Brother Shen, and how Brother Shen easily took away resources that others might not be able to get even if they broke their heads to fight for them.
As for those people that Brother Shen is interested in, he will only pay attention to them, and he won’t even meet with those that he is not interested in.
So at this time, when Shen Xichao said that there was someone he had to meet, He Siran was so surprised.
More curious about the other person's identity.
But Sister Qingqing didn't ask, and Brother Shen obviously had no intention of continuing. Even if He Siran was curious, he could only suppress it.
The makeup artist was applying liquid foundation to Yan Qing with a makeup sponge. She subconsciously closed her eyes and did not try to persuade Shen Xichao to go or not. Instead, she was silent for a while and said, "There are always some things that are unavoidable."
"But no matter what choice Brother Xichao makes, I will support Brother Xichao."
The liquid foundation was evenly applied, and the makeup artist put away the makeup sponge. Only then did Yan Qing open her eyes again.
After she finished saying that, she raised her eyes and looked at Shen Xichao. Her eyes were as bright as stars in the sky, reflecting only his reflection, and were full of trust.
Shen Xichao's eyes never left her. The moment their eyes met, his fingertips moved slightly, and the irritation that had risen in his eyes because of meeting the Shen family disappeared completely in an instant.
He responded softly...
