Dream real clothing first store opening, scheduled for half a month later on Saturday, this day is Lin Zi Hui specially spend a lot of money to ask the master to see the auspicious date.

Early that morning, Qiao Wen put on a new suit and went to the store to work, accompanied by a group of Wo Xing Society members led by Chen Canaan Jiang Yu Feng.

They weren't here for the opening, but had been asked by Jovan to take care of security for the day.

Because the popular young star Li Xing Chen will attend today's opening ceremony, dozens of local newspapers and magazines have sent reporters to cover the event, which will certainly be a lively scene, and security work is essential.

They are not good at anything else, but they are good at being a security guard to maintain order.

The dozen or so members of the society each had their hair cut, waxed and combed neatly, wearing white shirts and black suits provided by Qiaowen to cover the tattoos on their arms, and at a glance they looked human and dog-like. As long as they didn't open their mouths to speak, no one could guess that this was a group of kooks from the slums.

Among them, Chen Canaan and Jiang Yu Feng were the most eye-catching. Chen Canaan is simply handsome, once he came in, a few young female shopkeepers can't help but glance towards him, and the bold ones are even more enthusiastic to come forward and talk to him from time to time.

As for Jiang Yu Feng, it is because he is really tall and straight, wearing a formal dress can be directly on the runway, to the crowd is a standout. And because of that fierce and cold face, no matter how people can not be ignored, naturally, people can see at a glance.

Only the female shopkeepers' reaction to him was the same as their treatment of Chen Canaan, which was two extremes. They were as far away from him as they could be, not daring to look at him at all.

Anyway, when a group of people stood at the door, no one dared to make trouble.

Although every aspect has been prepared, but close to the opening, even Qiao Wen, inevitably a little nervous, as the manager of the new brand - that's right, Secretary Qiao has now been promoted to Qiao Manager, he and Lin ZiHui with the store manager up and down, things in detail to check all the work, busy as hell.

Chen Canaan is an idle person, guarding the door soon felt bored, a pair of eyes from time to time to glance inside, automatically searching for Qiao Wen's figure. Later on, he really couldn't help himself, and when he saw Qiao Wen going downstairs, his brain hadn't moved yet, but his feet had already followed him first.

Jovian thought he was up to something and casually asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Canaan hurriedly shook his head, "It's fine, it's fine, I'll just see how you guys are working, you're busy with your work, don't worry about me."

Manager Qiao really didn't have time to care about him, and was busy going up and down the stairs. Chen Canaan followed him in and out like a tail, but really didn't bother him.

This was the first time Chen Canaan had seen Qiao Wen at work. Although he didn't really understand a lot of the things that were said, just looking at the ease with which he arranged the work of his employees made him think that Little Qiao was really good. Obviously a few months ago, he was still a timid child who was a bit fearful of getting along with others, but now he was completely able to take charge of his own business and had become a very impressive Little Qiao.

His eyes followed Qiaowen by mistake, and the more he looked, the more honored he became, and the more he felt joy in his heart, for the corners of his mouth curved up unconsciously as his heart was surrounded by a raging wave of indescribable emotions.

Occasionally Qiao Wen perceived his straight standing gaze, turned his head towards him a smile, he was more heartfelt and overjoyed, the raging emotions in his chest simply have to be in the body of a few hard rolls, in order to be able to settle down.

But rejoicing was rejoicing, it was just that every time he saw the two heads of Qiao Wen and Lin Zi Hui coming together to discuss their work in a heated manner, he became very slightly irritated. The corners of his mouth that were originally curled up would also droop for a few moments, only to return to their original state when the two were separated.

And to nine thirty, only half an hour left for the opening of the ribbon cutting, Qiao Wen again and again to make sure that there is no problem, and was about to go and sit down to rest a little, his head suddenly dizzy, his body shook violently.

"Arwen!"

Lin Zi Hui, who was shocked, let out a soft cry and was about to reach out, when a figure surged up and held Qiao Wen in place faster than he could.

This person was of course no one else but Chen Canaan, who had been following Qiao Wen around.

"Joe, what's wrong with you?" He asked in panic as he hugged Jovian.

Qiao Wen slightly stabilized his mind and waved his hand, "I'm fine, maybe I'm a bit tired these past few days, I didn't sleep much and I'm a bit dizzy."

Chen Canaan sniffed and hurriedly helped the person into the lounge and sat down on the black leather sofa.

Lin Zihui followed behind nervously, personally pouring a cup of hot water and bringing it over, "Ah Wen, drink some water."

Chen Canaan took the water and fed Qiao Wen two mouthfuls, and after putting the cup down, he looked up and glared at Lin Zi Hui. Just watching this four-eyed boy and Qiao Wen kissing and making out, he had a belly full of displeasure, and now that he finally found a chance to open fire at him openly, he did not intend to show any mercy at all.

Lin Zi Hui see Qiao Wen this appearance also can not help but be very self-condemnatory, these days he was thinking about the opening of the store, but also regardless of Qiao Wen's physical condition, every day pulling him overloaded work, simply with the unscrupulous capitalists who ate people's blood and eat people's flesh is not very different.

Adding that he was somewhat afraid of Chen Canaan, at this moment, seeing the other party's cross-eyed and cold look, he understood that he was going to be furious, so he honestly sat on the sidelines, ready to withstand his fierce artillery fire.

Canaan Chen's cannon fodder is indeed fierce.

"Four Eyes, Xiao Qiao is working with you to help you, not to work for you and be enslaved by you!"

"I know."

"You promised me you'd take good care of him in the first place? Did you do that?"

"It's my bad."

"Look what you've done to wear him out!"

"Not in the future."

Qiao Wen had already slowed down at this moment, and seeing these two singing together as if they were acting, he breathlessly rubbed his forehead and said, "Alright Nan, I'm not in good health myself, so what are you blaming Zi Hui for? Besides, I work hard for myself."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Chen Canaan immediately withdrew his cannon fire and turned to ask in a nice voice, "Xiao Qiao, how are you doing?"

Jovian said, "I'm really fine, just take a break."

Lin Zi Hui, who was sitting next to the two men, swept his eyes back and forth across the two men's faces through the lenses of his eyeglasses, sighing in his heart, Ah Wen really did have the ability to do this, as long as he gave the word, this fire-breathing dragon, Anan, was just like an obedient big dog in front of him.

Chen Canaan didn't know that his image in the four-eyed boy's mind had already turned into a big dog with smooth hair, seeing that Qiao Wen was really nothing, only then did he let go of his heart, but he still couldn't help but glare fiercely at Lin Zi Hui again.

Just then, a loud commotion rang out downstairs.

Qiao Wen said, "It should be Li Xingchen coming."

Lin Zi Hui sniffed, finally escaping from Chen Canaan's knife eyes and getting up to greet him at the door.

Under the guidance of a few employees, Li Xing Chen, his cousin and his bodyguard, went up to the second floor.

"Mr. Li, please come in." Lin Zihui courteously invited the person into the lounge.

Qiao Wen pulled Chen Canaan to his feet and gave up the main seat on the sofa.

Chen Canaan wasn't interested in celebrities, let alone TV stars - after all, his family didn't even have a TV. Instead, he found it disconcerting that Li Xing Chen came in and had to make the frail Qiao Wen give up his seat.

Qiao Wen whispered, "Brother Nan, Li Xingchen is here, and I guess many reporters are arriving downstairs, so go and watch, don't let anyone make trouble."

Chen Canaan patted his chest, "I'm here, don't worry."

Witnessing the people out the door, Qiao Wen looked down at his wristwatch and smiled at Li Xingchen, "Mr. Li, there are still twenty or so minutes left before the ribbon cutting, so you guys are now resting here for a few moments. What are you guys drinking?"

Li Xingchen said in a gentle manner, "Just plain water will do."

Beside him, Li Xinghai waved his hand in the manner that he was the big shot: "Bring me a cup of Blue Mountain Coffee." When the female secretary was preparing the coffee, this big brother looked left and right with a pair of royal green eyes and complained, "Your store is just this big, can it really develop? I don't think we should have taken this job, it's really degrading."

Qiao Wen smiled good-naturedly and said, "Clothing is not like a restaurant, a store doesn't need to be too big because we will open many in the future, and will also be in the mall in the form of a counter. When we have more stores, it will also be a kind of publicity for Mr. Li."

Li Xinghai snorted, clearly unimpressed.

On the side, Li Xingchen, who was a bit snappy in the face by his uneducated cousin, smiled and spoke, "I see that your store is very good, and I believe that the future is very promising."

Jovian said, "I take your word for it."

The house was chilling, the hidden door was gently pushed open from outside, a pretty little face peeked in, his eyes landed on Li Xing Chen on the sofa, his eyes lit up, excitedly said, "It's really Li Xing Chen!" He held up the camera on his chest as he walked in, "I'm a fan of your show, can I take a picture with you?"

The people in the room were so stunned at the sudden appearance of the strange girl that they didn't even have time to react as they watched her come in like that in a big way.

But Jovan was calm, because with all the people guarding the bottom, there was no way he was going to let just any rabid fan up.

It was Li Xinghai who was the first to react, getting up angrily and reprimanding, "What's going on? What's with your security? Why would any drama fan just run up here!" Saying that, he walked up to drive away the girl who had already walked in, "Go go go! Why don't the security guards quickly take the people out!"

"I ......" the girl was driven backward.

Only, having just retreated to the door, Li Xinghai was about to throw the door shut with force, when that door panel was pressed against it from the outside, and a cold, deep voice rang out, "What's wrong?"

At the same time, the half-closed door, again slowly opened, a tall figure clearly stood in the doorway.

"Brother, Li Xingchen doesn't seem to be very convenient."

Li Xinghai naturally recognized who this big man standing at the door was. He is still fresh in his memory of the scene last time Jiang Yu Feng took a wrench to the thugs to open the scene, the original arrogance of the flame suddenly mute, looking at the tall and cold man in front of him, like a scared quail, half a day and then can not pop up a word.

Jiang Youfeng, on the other hand, directly ignored him and pulled his sister Jiang Youxue back into the house, looking at Li Xingchen on the sofa, saying, "Mr. Li, this is my sister, she loves the TV series you acted in, and would like to take a picture with you, I don't know if it's convenient or not?"

Li Xingchen hurriedly got up and said, "Conveniently convenient."

At this time, Li Xinghai also came back to his senses, turning around and sardonically echoing, "So it's benefactor's sister, that's certainly convenient." It was inconvenient might be opened.

No one cared about his words, though.

Jiang Youxue took the camera off her neck, handed it to her brother, ran to Li Xingchen with a joyful smile, and was about to gesture at the camera, when she suddenly remembered something like that, and beckoned towards Jiang Youfeng, saying crisply, "Brother, give the camera to someone else, and let's take a picture together."

For a good brother who was obedient to his sister, Jiang Youfeng naturally took the good advice and handed the camera over to Qiao Wen next to him, "Ah Wen, take one for us."

Jovian smiled and took the camera.

He had heard of his sister several times from Jiang Yu Feng, yet today was also the first time he had seen her, it turned out to be such an innocent and cheerful girl, obviously well protected and living a very good life.

Jiang Yu Feng walked to the sofa with his long legs, and with his sister, the two of them, stood on both sides of Li Xing Chen, leaving a precious group photo in the clicking sound of the camera in Qiao Wen's hand.

Jiang met the wind is purely to curry favor with his sister, after taking pictures, he pulled Jiang met the snow out the door, "Let's go, don't disturb people's work."

Jiang Youxue smiled and waved goodbye to Li Xingchen, and when she took the camera back from Qiao Wen, her eyes landed on the other person's face as an afterthought, revealing an undisguised amazement at once.

Just now her mind had been on the idol Li Xing Chen, and did not pay attention to this young man who was taking pictures, only at this moment did she suddenly realize that he looked so beautiful, it seems not too accurate to say beautiful, after all, this word is more suitable to describe a woman, and although Qiao Wen is good looking, he does not look like a woman. But Jiang Yuxue could not find any other more suitable words at this moment.

Nowadays, these western-educated girls in Hong Kong City are so open that when they see a pretty boy, they don't bring any reserve at all, and regardless of what else is next to them, they enthusiastically said, "You're Ah Wen, right?"

Jovian smiled and nodded at her.

Jiang Youxue turned her head towards her elder brother and snapped, "Brother, when you came back from Vietnam last time and mentioned Ah Wen to me, how come you didn't say that Ah Wen was so good-looking? I thought he was as intimidating as you."

Jovan: "......"

Jiang encounter wind ice cube face rare show a trace of uneasiness, sister like Li Xing Chen is just, after all, is a star, now see Qiao Wen good-looking, under the public such a mouth, is really not like a girl at all. He hurriedly grabbed Jiang Yu Xue's back collar and carried the person out, not forgetting to say to Qiao Wen, "Ah Wen, you guys are busy, don't bother."

"Hey-"Seeing him go out, Li Xingchen stretched out his hand, wanting to say something, yet the other party had already thoughtfully closed the door from the outside, blocking what he was going to say in the process.

Qiao Wen shook his head in amusement, and when he saw that Li Xing Chen was about to speak, he asked, "Mr. Li, is something wrong?"

Li Xing Chen laughed and said, "I haven't properly thanked Brother Feng for saving me last time."

Qiao Wen thought for a moment and smiled, "Brother Feng is a fastidious person, you said to invite him for a meal to thank him, I asked him about it and he said that he doesn't need to break the bank for a small matter. Let's do it this way, we have a private celebration dinner at eight o'clock in the evening at the Newport Restaurant, Brother Feng will also be there, if Mr. Li has the honor to come, he can thank Brother Feng properly by the way."

Li Xingchen was busy nodding, "Yes."

Li Xinghai, who had been ignored for a long time on the side, was not happy and came over, "Chen Zai, with your current status, how can you just go to people's parties? You don't even know what kind of people are there?"

Qiao Wen laughed and said, "Don't worry Mr. Li, it's just a small party, five or six people in total, don't worry."

Li Xinghai was still about to speak, but was stopped by Li Xingchen reaching out, "It's no problem, I'll definitely reach on time."
