Chapter 886: An Old Friend at the Banquet (2)
No matter how hard he tried, he could not imagine how this person really looked like.
He was like the most beautiful dagger crafted by the world’s most powerful weaponsmith. It could be placed in a museum as a beautiful piece of art admired by the orcs, but it could also be used as a weapon to hurt people. The snow-white blade did not stain blood when killing people, but the blood that flowed along the snow-white blade was still dazzling.
This was a weapon that everyone wanted.
Dou Wenqing realized that compared to rejecting this dangerous person, he wanted to get him more.
Perhaps it was because he liked to play with knives, so this divine weapon that was especially harmless and beautiful when it was sheathed and extremely sharp when it was unsheathed was especially pleasing to the eye.
Dou Wenqing found a reason for her mood.
It was rare for him to like something, so he didn’t mind being a little more patient with this rare liking.
As a businessman, time was very precious. However, it was worth it to spend more time on the right time, because the results would be surprising.
Dou Wenqing’s expression didn’t reveal any of his inner thoughts. He looked at the pleasing young man opposite him and was in a surprisingly good mood.
He didn’t reject banquets, but he definitely didn’t like them. After all, with his status, he didn’t need to expand his network or find partners at banquets. However, with Si Huang at the banquet, staying in a quiet corner with this young man was a comfortable thing.
Dou Wen Qing couldn’t help but think that if Si Huang really became his person, no matter if he attended banquets or did other things in the future, he would bring this person by his side. His life would definitely be much more comfortable than before.
Just for this comfort, he felt that the time and energy he spent on Phoenix Sihuang was worth it.
“Hey! K!”The peace was broken by a voice with a foreign accent.
A look of surprise flashed across Si Huang’s eyes. She turned her head to look in the direction of the voice and saw a western youth with soft brown curly hair and green eyes walking over quickly.
His expression was filled with undisguised surprise. He looked at Si Huang with enthusiasm. He said to Si Huang in English,” You’re really here. That’s great!” As he said that, he opened his arms, wanting to give Si Huang a hug.
Si Huang used one hand to block his enthusiasm. Seeing the sadness in the curly-haired youth’s eyes, the familiar pitiful puppy eyes, Si Huang sighed,” Morris, why are you here?”
“Oh! You don’t know, K! After we parted ways in the Mediterranean, thank you for hiring the crew for me. I…”
Morris, I just want to know why you’re here, so I’ll be brief and get to the point.” Si Huang interrupted him from telling the story.
“Alright then.” Morris was sitting in another chair, so his previous actions were a little impatient. However, his next actions showed his upbringing, the elegant etiquette that was taught by a noble family.
” My painting has caught the eye of a sponsor. He’s coming to Country Z for an art exhibition.” Morris ‘eyes were gloomy.” The first stop is City H.”
“This is a good thing.” Si Huang sized him up. From his clothes and spirit, it could be seen that Morris was doing well.
Morris pursed his lips and looked at Si Huang with a gaze that seemed to be filled with guilt and something else.” It’s that sea demon that was chosen.”
“I told you that the painting was great, but you were never satisfied.” Si Huang laughed.
Morris, however, was angry. He raised his voice slightly.” That’s not the problem!”
Si Huang’s smile disappeared as he looked at Morris quietly.
“I’m sorry, K. I was a little too aggressive.” Morris lowered his head guiltily and muttered,” That painting isn’t perfect yet. I don’t want to turn it into a commercial, but…” It’s all because I’m useless. Other than painting, I don’t know how to do anything else. I’m an idiot! You actually have to rely on your own works to support yourself.”
Si Huang waved his hand and asked the waiter to bring a glass of wine over, handing it to Morris.
Morris did not stand on ceremony. He picked up the wine glass and downed the liquid in one gulp. Then, a tragedy happened.
He didn’t see clearly what kind of wine was brought to him. He choked on it and tears welled up in his eyes.
Si Huang laughed without giving him any face, but in return, Morris gave him a resentful look.
Dou Wenqing had been watching the interaction and conversation between the two of them. He did not have any extra thoughts about this down-and-out and innocent foreign painter. However, the fact that the other party could let Si Huang get along so naturally meant that the relationship between the two of them was not bad.
The cold man picked up his red wine again and took a sip silently.
At this time, Morris noticed him. He introduced himself with a blush and asked about Dou Wenqing’s identity.
Dou Wenqing did not answer him.
Morris didn’t mind. He turned to Si Huang and said, This request might be a little too much, but I still hope you can consider it.”
“I hope you can participate in this art exhibition and buy the Sea Demon! That painting was the inspiration you gave me. If I have to sell her, I hope that the person who gets her is you.”
The young man’s eyes were stubborn and sincere, making it difficult to refuse.
Si Huang did not think for long before agreeing,” Actually, I’ve always liked it. I didn’t mention it before because you couldn’t bear to part with it.”
“Thank you! K!”Morris ‘face turned even redder, and even his body was on the verge of collapsing.” You are indeed an angel sent by God! Oh! I love you!”
Si Huang once again pushed away the western youth who was about to fall towards him. Seeing him lying on his chair, looking like he was about to fall asleep, he really did not know what to say.
Wasn’t his alcohol tolerance too poor?
Coincidentally, an adult Western man and Bai Mi Feng walked over. When he saw Morris, the Western man immediately held his forehead and looked like he couldn’t bear to look at him.
“I’m sorry, Mr. White.” “Looks like there’s no need for any more introductions,” the Western man said to Bai Mi Feng.
“I should be the one apologizing, Mr. Ed.” Bai Mi Feng glanced at Si Huang, then smiled at the Western man.” I’ve already prepared a room. Take Mr. Morris to rest first. I will still announce the news of the art exhibition to everyone.”
“Sorry for the trouble.” Ed helped Morris up and left. During this time, he quietly sized up Si Huang and Dou Wenqing.
No one noticed that an inconspicuous snow-white hamster had secretly followed them.
Oh, it wasn’t that no one had noticed. For example, she knew about Si Huang who had instigated all of this, but she didn’t even look over.
