NOVEL NEXT Chapter 235 What should he do?
At the entrance of the hotel, two girls got out of the back seat of the vehicle and looked around curiously.
Xiaolan reached out and held her best friend's hand, and asked in a low voice, "Yuanzi, are you really not with the elders?"
"No need." Suzuki Sonoko waved her hands indifferently and pulled Xiaolan towards the banquet hall. "I called Brother Tang Mu before. He said that this kind of occasion is usually a place for elders to socialize, and we It doesn’t matter, the reason why we are invited..."
Having said this, Sonoko shrugged, "Brother Tang Mu is very sad. His invitation to Shinichi was rejected, but he doesn't know any other young people who can entertain that Taige celebrity."
"That's right..." Xiaolan murmured, recalling it for a moment before nodding, "That outstanding shogi genius looks so young that it's really not easy for adults to receive him."
It was said that it was an invitation to compete, but it was actually a social occasion in another sense. Letting a genius mix in the vanity fair of adults was indeed not a decision that Tang Muqing would make.
"Xiaolan, Yuanzi."
Before the two of them entered the banquet hall, Tang Muqing had already greeted them.
Tang Muqing took two neatly trimmed flower branches from the waiter and placed them in the hands of the two girls, with a gentle smile on his face, "You are here."
"Thank you, Brother Tang Mu, for the invitation." Xiaolan smiled brightly, but saw doubts in Tang Muqing's eyes.
Tang Muqing looked behind the two of them curiously, "Where is Conan? Isn't Mr. Maoli here either?"
Hearing this, the smile on Xiaolan's face became gentler, "Dad said he would come over during the official banquet tomorrow, Conan..."
Xiao Lan paused and looked up at Tang Muqing, "Conan went to play with his friends, so I won't bother you."
Children just want to play with children. Conan wanted to come, but she, Mao Lilan, decisively refused. It was better not to let Conan make trouble in such a serious occasion.
For some reason, she now feels that Conan has something called an accident constitution.
If something happened at the banquet, she didn't dare to think how sad Tang Muqing would be.
You pretend to be gentle and have no temper to send every guest away. At night, you will want to cry when you think about the banquets that you have failed again and again, right?
Thinking of this, Xiaolan looked at Tang Muqing with even gentler eyes.
Tang Muching paused and nodded, "Okay, then I will entertain Mr. Maoli well tomorrow."
He glanced back at Zhu Fu Jingguang who had already blended into the banquet hall, and felt slightly relieved before continuing: "There are many people in the banquet hall. If you don't want to go in, you can go directly upstairs. I'll give it to the underage children." I have arranged a game room, and I will ask you two to help me entertain our special guests."
It's said to be a feast for the bride, but think about it carefully...
He felt that Akai Shuichi's younger brother might not like this kind of occasion, so it would be better to let two innocent-minded minors hang out together.
He doesn't know any other high school students or college students.
"it is good--"
Yuanzi was about to nod in agreement, but was suddenly startled.
The short-haired girl half-opened her mouth and looked behind him through Tang Muqing, her eyes filled with confusion.
what?
What?
On the side, Xiaolan showed exactly the same expression, seemingly shocked and speechless.
Tang Muqing turned around, the smile on his face deepened, "Xiu, you're here."
Akai Shuichi:......
Can't you just shut up?
He is already embarrassed, now you want to humiliate him with words? !
Xiaolan raised her head and looked at the woman in a skirt who appeared in front of her, her eyes were extremely blank, even with a hint of reminiscence.
"Let's go."
Tang Muqing raised his arm, smiled softly at Akai Shuichi, and said softly: "It's time for us to greet today's most distinguished guest."
Akai Shuichi's eyes were serious, and he took a deep breath to suppress his anger before putting his palm on Tang Muqing's arm and walking side by side outside the hotel.
"Xiaolan?"
Yuanzi followed Tang Muqing's steps and took two steps but suddenly turned back and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
The long-haired girl frowned slightly and looked at the two people walking hand in hand in front of her with doubtful eyes.
After a moment, she spoke blankly, "This Miss Xiu... is very familiar to me, but I can't remember..."
"Familiar? Have you read it in the newspaper?" Yuanzi asked doubtfully, holding Xiaolan's hand and slowly walking out, "This should be the female partner that Brother Tang Mu has been having a scandal with recently. They were all in the newspapers some time ago. The photos of the two of them from behind, I heard that the scandal has spread abroad. "
Hearing this, Xiaolan shook her head, "No..."
She had also read the newspaper. The photos on it only showed the back, and she...
I think this face is very familiar.
Xiaolan rubbed her forehead, suppressed all her emotions, and walked outside with Yuanzi.
"Slow down your pace. If someone sees your black and green striped clothes..." Tang Muqing's smile remained unchanged as he walked beside Akai Shuichi, "I don't want others to say that my female companion has no sense of aesthetics."
Akai Shuichi:......
Akai Shuichi lowered his eyes and shortened his steps by half.
The man next to him stepped forward with gentlemanly courtesy and let his female companion go first.
but……
Akai Shuichi stepped over a step, raised his head, and met a pair of extremely familiar eyes.
The corners of the eyes are slender and upturned, and a pair of glasses obscures most of the light in the eyes, but...
The surprise and confusion in the other party's eyes didn't seem to be fake.
Akai Shuichi:......
Akai Shuichi tightened his palms and looked at the young man standing in front of him blankly. For a moment, he felt as if his face had been torn off and thrown to the ground.
"Let me introduce you." Tang Muqing smiled and patted Akai Shuichi on the back of his hand, "This is the most important guest we invite this time, the genius shogi player and Taiko celebrity, Mr. Haneda Hideyoshi."
Haneda Hideyoshi came back to his senses, glanced at the man...woman...person opposite and nodded, "Hello."
"This is my female companion. She admires you very much, so I brought you with me to welcome you." Tang Muqing raised a gentle smile on his lips and said softly: "Just tell her to show off."
Haneda Hideyoshi's breath was stagnant, and his suspicious eyes glanced at the two people in front of him.
He was silent for a moment and nodded, "Hello, Miss Xiu."
What should he do?
He wants to poke his eyes out now, but...
He was confident that he would not lose a simple invitational tournament, but...if he lost, it would be his brother's fault, right? !
No, this must not be his dear brother!
He doesn't believe it!
Haneda Hideyoshi tried hard to control his expression and followed Tang Muqing towards the banquet hall, but the palms hanging by his sides were clenched.
How to do?
He suddenly wanted to risk being taught a lesson in love by his brother and take photos.
