Chapter 1190 It’s Not Easy to Be a White Moonlight
Shi Li never expected that Mu He would appear here.
I turned around in a daze and saw Mu He sitting in a wheelchair, looking at me with a smile.
He was wearing a well-fitting light-colored suit and sitting calmly in a wheelchair. Apart from being a little thin, there was nothing different about him from other people.
It even makes people feel that he will stand up in the next second and walk like a normal person.
Shi Li felt as if a needle pierced her heart. She turned around and glared at the two talkative men, then forced a smile and looked at Mu He.
"Good evening, what a coincidence to meet you here."
"My sister suddenly had other plans, so she asked me to come over and take a look for her." Mu He answered, as if he didn't know what had just happened.
But in fact, when he came here just now, he heard the conversation between the two men clearly. The only thing he didn't expect was that Shi Li would suddenly become so... fierce?
The two of them walked to the side naturally, and Shi Li sat on the sofa.
Now that they had met each other, Shi Li no longer hesitated and apologized to Mu He openly.
"I'm sorry that I broke the appointment that day and delayed your time."
"I was just in a whim that day and didn't tell you in advance. How can I blame you?"
Mu He gently took the blame on himself and said, "I wonder if you are free recently. Can we make another appointment?"
"Of course I'm free. I'll be free tomorrow!" Shi Li didn't want to make any mistakes this time, so she set the time for tomorrow noon.
Many people have arrived at the scene, and the highlight of the dinner, the charity auction, is about to begin.
Looking at Zhou Xiangxue walking towards her in a hurry, Shi Li felt very disappointed, but she was also working now, and when she met a colleague like Zhou Xiangxue, she had to endure it no matter how uncomfortable it was.
"Shi Li, I have something urgent to do, so I have to leave first. You... who are you?" Zhou Xiangxue's expression was not very good. He suddenly noticed Mu He in the middle of his speech and looked him up and down vigilantly.
Such a look was very unfriendly to Mu He, but he had long been accustomed to it and did not take it to heart.
"Manager Zhou, this is my friend and also my client." Unexpectedly, Shi Li suddenly stood up, stood in front, frowned and waited for Zhou Xiangxue.
Zhou Xiangxue showed a hurt expression again.
"Manager Zhou, since you have something urgent to do, please leave first. I will finish the event here. If anything happens, I will report to you when I get to the company." Shi Li ignored him and urged him in a tactful but direct way.
Zhou Xiangxue stood there without moving.
He just received a call from his family, saying that his grandfather and father had found out about his recent behavior in the company and that they were very dissatisfied with him. They asked him to explain to them immediately why.
Originally, his management of the company was a test for his grandfather and father. Now, if he fails to handle it well, he may even lose his inheritance qualification.
Nothing could be more serious than this. He was just the illegitimate son of the Zhou family. It was extremely difficult for him to gain recognition. He could not make any mistakes, and he could not lose the trust of the family.
But seeing Shi Li standing in front to protect another man, Zhou Xiangxue couldn't take the step to leave.
Until the phone rang again, and the family was urging me again.
Zhou Xiangxue gritted his teeth and lowered his voice to Shi Li before leaving: "Then be careful... Don't trust everyone."
"It's very rude of you to say that." Shi Li didn't tolerate him at all. If it wasn't the right occasion, she would definitely roll her eyes at him.
After sending him away, Shi Li turned around and looked at Mu He apologetically.
"I'm sorry, my colleague... I don't know what's wrong with him lately. He's been doing things in a half-hearted way. I apologize to you on his behalf."
The smile on Mu He's face was still warm, like the warm spring sun, with light clouds and breeze.
But when he heard Shi Li apologize on behalf of Zhou Xiangxue, his smile inexplicably faded a little.
"Well, it's okay." He said, tapping the armrest of the wheelchair twice. He hadn't done this for a long time. Only when he felt anxious before, he would tap the armrest of the wheelchair while thinking.
When the auction started, without Zhou Xiangxue interfering, Shi Li and Mu He naturally sat in adjacent seats.
At the auction table, the beautiful and generous auctioneer organized the auction with ease, and mentioned from time to time that the proceeds from the auction would be used for charity.
In order to gain a good reputation, each family donated extraordinary items for auction, and Shi Li looked at them very attentively.
Mu He was standing nearby, but he was somewhat distracted, still recalling the sudden turmoil in his heart.
After seven or eight lots were auctioned, the emerald necklace donated by the head office finally came on the scene.
After the auctioneer introduced the necklace, he specifically signaled the lighting technician on the scene to shine the light on Shi Li.
“It was this young designer who put all his efforts into creating this necklace which is unique in the world.”
The auctioneer was very good at creating hype and his remarks were all polite and polite.
But to Shi Li, it felt a bit exaggerated, and her cheeks slightly heated up. Before she could react, she saw the people around her raised their cards.
