Chapter 224: Zhang Xiaoling
As soon as Ye Chen went downstairs, he saw the guest in the living room, it was none other than the strange woman, the one who saved Qi Xiachun.
She looks good, but her eyes are a little weird.
"Hey there. Ye Chen still greeted her with a smile.
"Hello. The woman smiled in response.
Qi Xiachun said: "Chen'er, I met Zhang Xiaoling in the community today, so I invited her to our house for dinner." ”
Ye Chen nodded and smiled at the woman, "Your name is Zhang Xiaoling?"
"Yes, I live in Area C, and I happened to meet my grandmother today, and my grandmother is so enthusiastic that she will cause you trouble. Zhang Xiaoling smiled lightly, but it was very stiff, as if a puppeteer forced out a smile.
Ye Chen was stunned again, this woman is very good-looking, why is she so ugly when she laughs.
Zhang Xiaoling saw what he meant, touched his face, lowered his head and said a little sadly: "There is something wrong with my facial nerves, so I look a little weird when I laugh, don't be weird." ”
Qi Xiachun saw that this girl's mood was not high, and glared at Ye Chen!
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that. Ye Chen smiled and said: "You are so beautiful, your eyes are big, you look very comfortable, especially you are kind-hearted, there are not many such women, hehe, if I don't have a wife at home, I would want to chase you." ”
He wanted to praise him, but he should have unintentionally exposed other people's scars just now.
Zhang Xiaoling smiled bitterly and put his hands flat on his knees: "Yes, they all say that my eyes look like female ghosts, big or big, but they are quite scary, so no one wants to be friends with me since I was a child." ”
The tone was a little self-deprecating and helpless, which made Wen Wen feel embarrassed.
Grandma Qi Xiachun immediately comforted: "Xiao Ling, how can it be? You are so good-looking, they are jealous of you, jealous of your big eyes, how watery!"
"That's it. Qin Rou took the boiled milk tea and put it on the table, the corners of her mouth smiled, and then sat down next to Zhang Xiaoling, holding her arm with one hand, and said: "If no one wants to be friends with you, I will, anyway, we are neighbors, you can come to me and Sister Shuang'er to play." ”
Zhang Xiaoling's expression changed greatly, and she immediately shrank back, and pinned Qin Rou's hand holding her, as if she was afraid that others would touch her.
He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I... I've been used to being alone since I was a child, and I'm not used to being next to me. ”
"Oooh. Qin Rou was a little embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know, why don't you drink milk tea, I made it myself." ”
"Yes, the milk tea cooked by my granddaughter-in-law is very delicious and hygienic. Qi Xiachun invited with all his might.
Zhang Xiaoling replied in a low voice: "Okay, thank you." ”
She took a few sips of milk tea and lowered her head, her eyes went up, and she subconsciously glanced at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen also kept looking at her, looking at each other, all of them scared him, this look was like a female ghost buried in her head, her hair was scattered, and she suddenly opened her eyes to look at the male protagonist!
"Shhhhh
He sighed in his heart, what a beautiful girl, such a pair of eyes with a natural sense of horror is indeed unpleasant, I'm afraid it's hard to find a boyfriend, who dares to fall asleep and hug each other at night, suddenly look at it, and directly frightened the soul.
Zhang Xiaoling also immediately withdrew his gaze, his eyes flickering.
At this time, Chen Shuang'er simply washed and went downstairs.
She and Qin Rou, including Qi Xiachun, are both kind-hearted people and very hospitable, so they are very good to Zhang Xiaoling.
Later, I learned that she was an out-and-out orphan, but she was adopted by a rich family, and after the death of her adopter, she was left with such a house, and her experience was also more tragic, because of the damage to her facial nerves caused by illness, she laughed like a puppet, and because she had a pair of terrifying eyes, so everyone alienated her.
In such a big city, Zhang Xiaoling has always been a person, and last month because of his eyes and smile, he directly scared the guests, so he was fired by the boss.
The two women in the family and an old man, after hearing about Zhang Xiaoling's encounter, they all showed pity and were very distressed, so they became more enthusiastic about her.
"Xiaoling, what do you like to eat?"
"Sister Xiaoling, are you free in the afternoon? ”
"Xiaoling, I will often come to the house to play in the future, we are usually at home, we can make food for you, and we can also make an appointment to go out to play." ”
"We're friends from this day on. ”
“...”
Ye Chen originally felt a little strange about Zhang Xiaoling, but when he thought about a girl with such a miserable life, it was actually normal to be a little weird.
So he dispelled all his doubts.
Of course, he is a man, and he is embarrassed to go up to comfort Zhang Xiaoling, and let others misunderstand if he talks too much.
He was lying on the balcony of the living room playing with his mobile phone, and there was a text message sent to him, which was from Mu Nianci.
"Ye Chen, the banquet held by the United Society will be held as scheduled in two days, I have already got the invitation, and now someone should send it to your house." ”
"My cousin Mu Xincheng also promised to meet you when the time comes, and I also told him that you are my savior, and I think he will give the greatest face, so you should grasp it well, there should be room to talk about Qingmen. ”
"As long as you convince him, then the other four chaebols will have a solution. ”
Ye Chen grinned, he didn't expect Mu Nianci's efficiency to be so high, but he frowned slightly, Mu Nianci didn't mean to show up, he just explained everything and let him go.
Slightly disappointed, he replied with a text message: "You, can you go together?"
Mu Nianci replied after a while: "Don't worry, I have already told Mu Xincheng, it will be the same whether you go or not, and someone will pick you up when you arrive at the banquet." ”
Ye Chen raised his eyebrows, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the reason is so high-sounding, he must deceive Mu Nianci.
"Aunt Nianci, I've never been to such a place alone, I don't know and I don't know anyone, I'm really afraid of making a fool of myself after the banquet for so long, and besides, the boss of Mu Xincheng is giving you face, not giving me face, I'm afraid there is still a difference if you don't come forward..."
"Aunt Nianci, you see that you help people to the end, and you will come with me the night after tomorrow, right? This matter is still very important to me. ”
It is almost impossible to refuse the words of knowing the reason, and the words of emotion are almost impossible to refuse, especially Mu Nianci has always felt that he owes Ye Chen a favor.
As soon as this text message was sent, Mu Nianci didn't reply for half an hour, and finally replied hesitantly: "Okay, but Auntie only accompanies you to see Mu Xincheng! After all, I am a woman in my forties, and I have just been divorced, so it is inconvenient for me to show up and participate in this kind of banquet." ”
"I have to take care of Long Zang's face, otherwise the Long family is afraid that they will be ridiculed by others. ”
Ye Chen laughed with his mobile phone, and then immediately replied: "Okay, no problem, I don't like this kind of banquet either, let's leave after we finish our business, how about not letting you show up?"
"Hmm. Mu Nianci only replied with one word, and it was over.
