Chapter 097
In the bright and spacious corridor, the Nidelan staff hurried back and forth after the end of the fashion show.
Zhao Rui was dealing with the aftermath of the cooperation between Ming Yu and Nidelan, while Luo Ru had gone back to the hotel to organize the room situation. He didn’t know how he could suddenly encounter both of them, but a few words suddenly flashed through Ming Xiaoyu’s head.
Meeting on a narrow road, the brave would win.
…Cough! This was Zhao Rui and Luo Ru, not enemies.
After all, Ming Xiaoyu and Xi Ze had left the room and acted like ordinary friends, so there was nothing strange. They didn’t look unusual and normal people wouldn’t think too much. Even if someone said hello to Xi Ze and Ming Yu on the way, they wouldn’t think anything was wrong.
But for Zhao Rui and Luo Ru, it was really abnormal.
Zhao Rui’s face was stiff as he inwardly thought, ‘Did Xi Ze attend the Nidelan May fashion show? I heard from A’Wei that Xi Ze doesn’t participate in the activities of brands he hasn’t worked with for a long time. Why did he suddenly attend Nidelan’s show?’ By the way, Zhao Rui also remembered that Ming Xiaoyu once said he gave Xi Ze toilet paper.
On the other side, Luo Ru was aware of the slightest detail.
Luo Ru was an intelligent and sharp woman, with sharp observation abilities. She also had the meticulous thoughts of a female character and noticed the nuances. For example, why did she feel that Ming Yu and Xi Ze were standing too close?
They might be friends, but the corridor was so wide while their bodies were so close… it felt weird!
However, neither Zhao Rui or Luo Ru revealed the many thoughts on their minds in front of Xi Ze.
Zhao Rui coughed and said hello to Mr. Xi. Then he turned to Ming Yu and asked, “Xiaoyu, you have changed your clothes and removed your makeup? Luo Ru and I have dealt with matters here. We can go directly back to the hotel.
Ming Yu nodded at this. Then Xi Ze spoke calmly from the sidelines. “I’m planning on inviting Ming Yu to go to Italy to see Garcia’s studio. It will probably take around a week. Does Ming Yu have any jobs he must attend?”
Zhao Rui was startled by Xi Ze’s words. Then he subconsciously replied, “No…there are no jobs in the next week.”
Xi Ze nodded while a light flashed through his dark eyes. Then he turned to the youth beside him. “Do you want to go to Garcia? My friend is an assistant designer there and they are currently making high-end dresses for the second half of the year.”
A lot of information flashed through Ming Yu’s mind when he heard the name ‘Garcia.’ Ming Yu didn’t have the slightest hesitation as he nodded. He looked at Zhao Rui and asked, “Brother Zhao, when must I return to Huaxia?”
Zhao Rui immediately replied, “Two weeks, you have up to two weeks.”
Ming Xiaoyu nodded at these words and then said to Luo Ru, “Sister Luo, I will go to Italy with Xi Ze. If anything comes up, you or Brother Zhao can call me.”
Ming Xiaoyu thoughts about matters and felt more assured trusting them to Luo Ru.
Luo Ru stared at the youth with a complicated expression before agreeing. “Okay, I understand Xiaoyu.”
The series of events took place very quickly. From Zhao Rui and Luo Ru’s appearance, to Xi Ze’s appearance and then organizing matters, a total of only five minutes passed. Yet Zhao Rui felt like he had experienced a long period of time.
…How could the world change so fast and be completely different from what he imagined?
The four people walked towards the entrance of the venue. They arrived at the parking lot and watched their small model follow Xi Ze. Zhao Rui couldn’t help it and suddenly pulled Ming Xiaoyu to the side, whispering, “Xiaoyu, your friendship with Mr. Xi… is it really this good?”
The youth’s eyebrows raised as the words and he smiled, “Brother Zhao, my relationship with Xi Ze is very good. This time you can rest assured that he won’t betray me.”
Zhao Rui, “…#＄％#＄％#＄#!”
Where was he thinking that Xi Ze would betray Xiaoyu?
Wasn’t there something weird here?
Was Xi Ze really such an enthusiastic person? Zhao Rui felt there was something wrong!
Once Ming Xiaoyu and Xi Ze walked in the other direction of the parking lot, Zhao Rui looked after them with a puzzled expression and muttered, “How can it feel so strange?” By his side, Luo Ru didn’t speak. She stared with narrowed eyes at the backs of the two tall men.
Luo Ru stared for 10 seconds when Ming Xiaoyu quietly looked sideways at her and smiled. The smile was gentle, but contained a deep meaning hidden it in. Luo Ru’s eyes widened and she covered her mouth, not daring to exclaim aloud.
Zhao Rui didn’t see this scene. He was already preparing to drive.
Xi Ze’s car was a little further away. After arriving at the venue, he had sent his driver back and planned to drive the car himself.
If Ming Xiaoyu came to Europe, it was natural to rent a car as a means of transport. For those like Xi Ze, who often flew around the world, they would have their own real estate in major cities where they could live at any time, not to mention cars.
Xi Ze’s car wasn’t indifferent and cold like him. Rather, it was a gorgeous red Ferrari. The chassis is very low, almost wiping the ground, while the body was beautiful and streamlined. It was wild and exciting, with a crazy and unrestrained heroic style.
After getting in the car, Ming Xiaoyu couldn’t help asking, “I don’t want to know, but much money do you have in the end?”
Ming Yu was a top supermodel in his previous life and his assets were estimated to be in the eight digits. But he wasn’t extravagant enough to buy a million-dollar sports car in London. Xi Ze was born gifted. His main business wasn’t modelling but designing. Therefore, it was natural he would have more money than Ming Xiaoyu’s previous life.
Xi Ze pressed a button while listening to Ming Yu’s question and asked, “This question, are you planning to be the housekeeper of our house in the future?”
Ming Yu raised an eyebrow, “I am the housekeeper? Then I’m not the home owner?”
“Do you want to be the home owner?” Xi Ze placed a hand on the steering wheel while staring into Ming Yu’s eyes with a smile.
The young man spread open his hands and said, “I thought I was already.”
The man’s eyes stared at the youth for a long time at these words. But the latter’s lips just calmly curved up as he waited. Nobody would understand how much pressure Ming Xiaoyu was withstanding at this moment under his calm surface.
Xi Ze’s pressure wasn’t comparable to others. Faced with this question of who was the ‘owner’, Xi Ze didn’t recognize Ming Xiaoyu as the home owner at first. He just quietly stared at the youth.
But Ming Yu wouldn’t be Ming Yu if he succumbed.
After a long time, Xi Ze’s eyes curved as he smiled. Then he sighed and kissed a corner of the youth’s lips. “Small Mushroom, no one has probably said it before but you are really bad and cute.”
Ming Yu glanced coldly at the man beside him. “Definitely not. If anyone calls me ‘Small Mushroom’ then they would no longer have a chance to…hey, what are you doing!”
Ming Yu hadn’t finished speaking when Xi Ze slammed on the pedal and the top sports car instantly accelerated!
It was so fast that Ming Yu fell back in his seat. He was so angry that his eyes became moist, really looking like a small mushroom.
The main culprit, Mr. Xi drove calmly out of the parking lot and into the sparsely populated road of the eastern suburbs of London. The car was very fast and Xi Ze’s driving skills so good that Ming Yu could only feel admiration. Several gorgeous drifts made Ming Xiaoyu’s eyes widen and he could only look at the man beside him with a horrified gaze.
How many things did this man have?
…No, that wasn’t it! How many things was this man good at?
After adapting to the other person’s amazing driving skills, Ming Xiaoyu said, “I finally understand why you let other people drive. If an ordinary person sits in your car, I’m afraid they would throw themselves into the sea and not want to live.”
Xi Ze acted like he didn’t hear the true meaning of the youth’s words. He nodded and agreed, “Yes, my driving skills are really high and ordinary people can’t sit in my car. Only my family’s owner can sit here.”
Ming Xiaoyu raised an eyebrow, “Are you admitting it Mr. Xi?”
Xi Ze’s thin lips slightly curved as he replied calmly, “Yes, you gave me toilet paper and solved my urgent situation. No matter what you say, I must admit it.”
Ming Xiaoyu, “…!!!”
