Chapter 9 It was too late at noon, and the rain continued to drizzle.

The grass is soaked in rain.

After Zhuang Haoran finished the meeting at the Asia Hotel, he went straight to the Ocean Restaurant with Lin Chuya and the others to have a meal.

The four men each held black umbrellas.

Xiao Tong held a transparent umbrella and accompanied Zhuang Haoran to accompany him.

The rain sounded.

"It's strange... Why candy is missing? Could it be that I can't hold on anymore, right? This girl doesn't look like..." Su Luoheng said in confusion while walking forward on the wet grass.

Lin Chuya thought about it, then looked at Zhuang Haoran's back as he walked forward angrily and said, "Someone is so cruel, he is guarding with a fever and cold, making breakfast, lunch and dinner for you, and driving an electric car to chase you Parker Feng, and he refuses to forgive him. Little Candy is cold!"

Zhuang Haoran kept silent and just walked into the Ocean Restaurant with big strides.

Xiao Tong glanced at him and followed silently.

Yahui and Qi Jiaming stood at the entrance together, waiting with a smile.

Zhuang Haoran glanced at Yahui, then stopped making a sound, walked in, sat in the seat that day, ordered a few dishes casually, Lin Chuya also ordered a shilong steak. He put the dishes together, then raised his head to look at Yahui who was obviously relaxed, and smiled and said, "By the way, I would like to ask Deputy Manager Liu, why didn't Xiao Candy come today? Do you don't like us anymore?"

Zhuang Haoran kept silent and picked up the warm water and drank it.

Yahui also glanced at Zhuang Haoran, then said with a little laugh: "She is at home..."

Zhuang Haoran's eyes were obviously unhappy.

"What are you doing at home?" Cao Yingjie raised his head and looked at Liu Yahui, asking a little disappointed.

Yahui calmed down for a while before she could only smile again: "She is doing something very smart and skillful at home."

"What's so clever?" Lin Chuya smiled with interest and said, "I only know that Xiao Candy can cook and makes coffee first-class, but I don't know how clever she is. What did she do?"

"Uh... it's hard to say..." Yahui was silent for a while, then just held the dining brand, nodded slightly, and stepped back.

"This is strange..." Lin Chuya looked at Yahui's attitude that he was not in touch with anything and said nothing happened, and said with a funny look: "Did... she really give up?"

Zhuang Haoran kept silent, picked up the napkin and spread it lightly. He remembered the sweet smile of Tang Kexin walking up the top of the mountain. After a while, he then took the warm water and took a sip.

The more time goes by, the darker the sky becomes, with a little pale color.

The heavy rain continued to drizzle.

The small attic had already lit up fluorescent lights in the afternoon. The window in the room was only half opened. I saw the rain falling from outside like a line. There was a girl in front of the window wearing a long white nightgown, wearing a blanket, sitting on the wooden floor, with various high-quality silk threads placed around her. There was a nine-dragon pearl-shaped ebony screen in front of her, and a picture of the little fox screen printed out from her mobile phone and enlarged...

She was holding a purple embroidery tray in her hand, pressing a high-quality Suhang silk scarf, with long fingers, gently pinching a fine needle, connecting a milky white thin thread, gently passing through the embroidery tray, looking at the beautiful small petals, gradually taking shape, she smiled happily, remembering that her mother had once been so skillful and skillful, and she didn't know how beautiful it was, but when she thought of this, she was glad that she inherited her mother's skillfulness and tracing techniques, because when her father was a child, she taught herself to hold a pencil and draw basic graphics of various meals, because the chef was the leader before designing the dishes...

She followed the drawing bit by bit, delicately and carefully embroidered the shape she wanted in her heart. The green light in front of the window and the pleasant rain fell happily accompanied this strong girl and walked towards the other end of time.

Her eyes firmly held the fine needle, embroidering the little white flower silently and focused. When she remembered the little fox hiding in the little flower, she felt a sudden shaking feeling in her mind. She was stunned for a moment, raised her head and looked at the picture of the little fox under the desk lamp, smiled slightly, and continued to embroider the pattern with concentration...

The rain continued to rattle down.

The whole world is wet, but it is not harmful to the slightest part of the Global Group, the world's leading hotel industry, is preparing to hold a triennial sommelier competition, and has now accepted registrations worldwide.

The next morning, as soon as the news was released, countless reporters rushed to the Asian hotel. It was rare that at this time, the presidents of Huanya and Asia Group were all in China. The reporters asked the two presidents if they had any contestants in their hearts through this press conference, and in the end they could get shares in the manor. Jiang Tianlei was wearing a silver suit, lined with a black shirt, and opened his collar. He was so noble that he still refused to answer the reporter's questions. He just signed his own name for this competition.

Zhuang Haoran is wearing a dark blue British-style suit today, lined with a light blue shirt, and wearing a silver butterfly flower in front of the collar. He just smiled slightly and signed his name with a slut.

"Doesn't there be a suitable candidate for both presidents?" A reporter rushed to the reporter's desk and asked anxiously.

Zhuang Haoran and Jiang Tianlei raised their heads at the same time, looked at the reporter, and smiled mysteriously.

Xiao Haoying was wearing a black suit and black straight trousers, still looking like a handsome man. She took off her glasses, looked at Zhuang Haoran, and smiled slightly.

The press conference ended shortly after...

In order to leave first, Jiang Tianlei ordered Dong Ying behind him to say, "Tell me Lawrence immediately!"

Zhuang Haoran also walked forward quickly, Xiao Tong followed closely behind and said quickly: "The registration time is only three days. After the deadline has passed, all the lists later are invalid. Are Ke Xin still not here today? Then... the registration form... do I want to keep it for her..."

"What are you keeping?" Zhuang Haoran said coldly: "Is she an employee of Huanya? What qualifications are she qualified to participate?"

"This..." Xiao Tong looked at him helplessly.

Zhuang Haoran quickly left the Asian Hotel lobby.

Xiao Tong stood in the middle of the lobby, thinking about it, then quickly walked towards the Ocean Restaurant and went downstairs. When she saw Yahui standing beside her entertaining guests, she immediately stepped forward and grabbed her hand. She asked anxiously: "The competition started suddenly in advance. Where did Kexin go? She hasn't appeared for two days? I have kept the registration form for her. Maybe she begged the president again, maybe she can pass the test!"

Yahui looked at Xiao Tong, thought about this matter, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll call her."

The cell phone in the small attic rang out quickly.

The girl who had not slept for a day and a night seemed to be without any fatigue. She held the embroidery plate in her hand, pinched the fine needle in her hand, and embroidered the soft fox tail bit by bit, allowing the phone to vibrate...

Yahui hurriedly held her cell phone, listened to the sound, and stomped her feet and thought, what is this girl doing?

An extended Mercedes-Benz sedan drove to the lobby of the Asian Hotel. Lawrence's usual black old gentleman's suit came out brightly, and then followed the best sommelier in the Asian wine training and club, and walked towards the registration point of the banquet hall on the second floor with a smile. He heard the assistant saying that sommeliers from all over Asia had already registered through the group officer. After hearing that he nodded and led the contestants to the second floor together.

All the colleagues in front of the lobby, Xu Zeming and others, all looked at the scene, thinking a little worriedly about Yahui's good friend, Ke Xin, I don't know what would happen...

Cao Yuqing's cousin is also selected as a wine chef this time. She spoke proudly and said that she has a lot of confidence in her sister winning the award.

Chen Manhong was embarrassed to spit on her!

Time is very expensive and busy.

The overseas sommeliers of Huanya Group have entered the employee's order number through the official and registered. Some sommeliers will return to China soon and conduct pre-match practice in advance. Countless red wine estates have given their own red wine samples for this competition for free, because this is a precious and powerful publicity opportunity!

There are more and more customers in Asian hotels these two days.

Yahui was so busy that she turned around. It was the second day and registration was about to end tomorrow. She was anxiously thinking: "Kexin!! Are you doing well? Why do you need to embroider this?"

That little loft.

It was still blurry and the weather became colder. Tang Kexin was wearing a white long-sleeved T-shirt and white sweatpants. She sucked her red nose, covered with a thick quilt, held the embroidery plate in her hand, held the thin needle with red and swollen fingers, gently embroidered the fox's head, and the pair of agile eyes were very difficult to embroider. She stopped immediately, squinted her eyes, took a deep breath, forced her body that had not slept for two days and nights, swallowed her thirsty throat, picked up the black thread needle, and pricked the pattern of the eyes...

Time passed quietly. The Asian Lobby had been busy for two days. By the evening, the registration had been basically completed. Some of the staff had free time to check the list of various winemakers and discussed who would have a better chance to win the award.

Yahui got off work at 8 o'clock, rushed into the taxi quickly and shouted: "Go back to Xihua Street!! Hurry up!"

The taxi went forward and sprayed straight away!

Jiang Tianlei stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, wearing a white shirt, black trousers, holding red wine, looking at the scenery in a pale and blurry way, wondering whether she would come? Why did she give up?

Another figure, Zhuang Haoran, wearing a black shirt and black trousers, was already sitting on the sofa in the presidential suite, holding Shadoni in his hand and the Queen's wine. His eyes were condensed in front of him. His fingers gently stroked the glass, detecting her wine glass, with a cold expression, and making no sound.

The taxi quickly drove to the small attic.

Yahui rushed out of the taxi, ran home in the rain, rushed into the house, shouted: "Tang Kexin————"

"Well..." Tang Kexin had finished repairing the fox's eyes and began to pick up the lilac silk thread and embroider the orchid...

"What the hell are you doing?" Yahui threw away her bag, knelt in front of this man, and said anxiously: "Registration for the wine competition is about to end! What are you still doing with this thing? Quick! Sign up first and then talk about it..."

"I am not a Huanya employee yet..." Tang Kexin said with her big eyes still shiny.

"Then you go and ask Zhuang Haoran again!! Instead of embroidery here!!" Yahui said in a hurry!!

Tang Kexin didn't say anything anymore, but just picked up the long lavender thread she had worn and gently stabbed it into the embroidery plate!

"Oh, you are really anxious!!" Yahui said madly in anger!

Tang Kexin kept silent, aimed at a bouquet of orchids next to the little fox, and then waved the needle and thread in her hand silently.

The rain outside the small attic continued to fall in the darkness, and the desk lamp was shining with dazzling light.

Yahui had just taken a shower and looked at Kexin with fear and said, "It's already three o'clock in the morning... You shouldn't rest for a while, you haven't slept for two days and nights..."

Tang Kexin kept silent, her eyes waving the light green silk thread in her hand calmly, gently embroidered the green stem of the orchid, lifted her eyelids slightly, and looked at a small gray stone covering the little fox, and there were three-color needle thread distribution. She continued to embroider the green stem silently and calmly, and gently lifted her fingers forward. There were many needle holes at the tip of her fingers, some of which were embroidered with a little blood. She held her hand in her mouth, sucked it gently, and then continued to embroider.

Time, do you know how precious you are to some people?

But you don’t know that after you sent the night away, dawn came quickly... The girl under the lamp was still calmly embroidering the stone, with the last pattern, remembering that her mother said that living things are difficult to embroider, but dead things are even more difficult to embroider... She tightened the silk thread under her fingertips very calmly, making the shape clearer...

Today, the drizzle continued to be misty. I heard Yahui say that the voting ended at 5:00 this afternoon, and she was asked to go to Huanya at noon regardless of what happened.

Tang Kexin heard it, at noon, her eyes finally raised her red and her eyes lightly with no sleep for three days and three nights. She tried her best to embroider the little fox. Compared with the large picture, although it was not as beautiful as the master embroidered, it was also very delicate. She suddenly sighed lightly. She seemed to have experienced terrible changes in characters in these three days, which made her understand that calmness was necessary for anything.

She took a breath, wiped off her tears, quickly turned out the small box, carefully folded the embroidered white silk scarf, put it in, then quickly moved out the black box, put the ebony screen in, locked it up, immediately carried a small bag, rushed out of the house, saw a taxi, she immediately rushed in and said, "Go to the antique market!! Quick!"

It’s 1130 noon!

Yahui was really going to look up her head crazy, look at the wall clock on the wall, and whimpered, "What's going on? You won't come yet!"

Two points!!

Tang Kexin rushed into an antique modification and processing store, smashed her screen and embroidery on the counter, and shouted: "Boss!! Hurry up!! I want to install a screen!!"

When the boss heard this, he immediately walked out, opened the lid, and saw that it was the best golden nanmu ebony. He exclaimed: "What a good wood!"

"Don't say so much! I want to put on the screen!" Tang Kexin immediately took out the gauze scarf embroidered by herself!

"Okay, okay! I'll let the workers install it for you right away."

"How long will it take!?"

"Two hours..."

"Ah?" Tang Kexin shouted: "It takes two hours to do such a thing?"

"Little girl!" The boss said to her in a way, "You are a Jiulong screen. You have to disassemble it first and then install it. You bite the cloth strip with your claws. It's not something that ordinary people can do. I just pretended to be anxious for you in two hours! I want it for ordinary people for a day!"
