Chapter 41: The Betrothal Feast
Ye Lansheng leaned against the kitchen counter, held the cup in his hand, took a sip, was silent for a moment, and asked, "What's the trouble?"
Liang Wen was half-lying on it, holding the dried fish on it with his bare hands, one by one, the taste was quite good, very fresh.
He said while eating: "Then I didn't ask specifically, it is estimated that it is a family matter, most likely because of money, I didn't let myself check, if you want to know, I will ask people to inquire carefully." But you shouldn't have to worry about other people's housework. β
"Besides, you're the one who is going to get engaged today, so don't think about anything else. He ate the last small dried fish and straightened up, "It's okay to be around, I'll go first, so as not to disturb you about the engagement banquet you are preparing for the evening." β
He chewed on the small dried fish in his mouth, looked sideways, and secretly observed Ye Lansheng's expression, there was nothing abnormal, it was still the same as if it was not about him, it was obviously his engagement banquet, as if it had nothing to do with him.
Liang Wen wiped his mouth, turned around, leaned against the kitchen counter in the same position as him, and said, "Do you feel that Xue Yan has become more and more interested in you recently?"
"Really?"
"She's really emotional. Liang asked firmly.
Ye Lansheng pulled the corners of his mouth and didn't respond.
Liang Wen sighed inaudibly, "I'm missing a chance." β
"Work hard, there is no corner that you can't pry off, I'm optimistic about you. He leaned slightly and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, serious but not so serious.
Liang asked: "Ah Sheng, as a brother for so many years, there are still some things that need to be said. β
"There is no need to preach seriously, Lao Tzu is thirty years old, not three years old, what you want to say I can still understand? How you want to live, that's my business, no one can care. β
Ye Lansheng didn't take the cane, and slowly moved towards the living room step by step, he tried to walk normally, but the weight was stacked, but it still hurt. In the end, he jumped on one foot on the couch and sat down.
After raising them at home these days, I am not fat, but thinner.
Sheng Shu stared at Aunt Fang every day to make this stew and that, and dutifully played the role of a good mother for a while.
Liang Wen didn't follow, he stood in front of the kitchen counter as usual, staring at him, always careless, and didn't pay much attention to anything. He knew some of the things back then, but he didn't know everything.
No one expected that Ye Lansheng, who was once glamorous, could finally become what he is today and become a real gentleman.
Nothing can be accomplished except for the family.
Liang asked: "It's better to start your own business, with your ability, you can do anything." Haven't you been investing privately for the past few years, and you have a lot of private assets in your hands?"
Ye Lansheng nested comfortably in the sofa, his legs were also placed in a comfortable position, the huge floor-to-ceiling glass, the light was abundant, and the winter sun was a thin layer, which was particularly comfortable on his body.
Liang Wen continued: "If you don't want to come forward, I'll find someone to put your name on, and you will be the boss behind the scenes." In this life, whether it is long or not, whether it is short or not, you have to do something to have momentum. β
"Then I'll wait until I want to do it. β
"Let's talk about it. β
Liang Wen didn't go on, and after staying for a while, he took his leave.
Not long after he left, Sheng Shu came back again.
Originally, she had to take care of the engagement banquet herself, but because of Ye Lansheng's car accident, all her focus now falls on her son, and everything else is in the hands of her trusted subordinates.
He took care of his son wholeheartedly.
"I've prepared all the clothes for you, the time is almost ready-to-use, your current situation is special, and the Xue family understands the process. Xue Yan is very attentive and takes your share together. Did you give it to Jade?"
"Yes. Ye Lansheng tilted his head, closed his eyes, and responded perfunctorily.
Sheng Shu saw that he was not in good spirits, so he didn't continue, just sat quietly next to him and did his own thing, letting him rest with all his heart.
β¦β¦
During the holiday, Turnip didn't go out, and she wasn't in the mood to invite Xu Wen to dinner, so she slept in her room.
Ji Manjing didn't come back, and Ji Wujing didn't care.
In the afternoon, she was just about to take a nap when the doorbell rang outside.
Zhou Yan ran to open the door, but she ignored it, covered the quilt and slept peacefully. As soon as she closed her eyes, Zhou Yan knocked on her door, "Jingjing, looking for you." β
Ji Wujing was stunned, quickly got up from the bed, opened the door and saw that it was an unexpected person, Xue Yan.
Zhou Yan didn't disturb them talking, and returned to the room with acquaintances.
Ji Wujing made tea for Xue Yan, "I don't have any good tea here, you pay attention to drinking it." β
"It's okay, I don't like to drink tea very much, and I usually only drink plain water. Naturally, she didn't tell her that she was particular about even drinking boiled water, and she wouldn't drink it if it was boiled in an ordinary kettle.
Ji Wujing put down the teacup and sat on the single sofa next to her, a little restrained. I couldn't think of it, Xue Yan came to look for her, I don't know what it is.
She was a little nervous, and her palms broke out in a cold sweat.
Xue Yan took a post from her bag, put it on the table, and said, "Today I am engaged to Ah Sheng, and I have been with Huashan for two days before, and I also regard you as my friend, so I specially came to get a post for you, hoping that you will come to the banquet in the evening." β
The post is pink, the LOGO is quite chic, and Ji Turnip seems to be able to smell a faint fragrance wafting over.
She smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'm not qualified to participate in such a banquet, Miss Xue, you are too exalted of me." β
"Don't you see me as a friend? I already think of you as a good friend. She smiled, her eyes crooked, both from her demeanor and her eyes, all revealing her friendliness and sincerity.
For a moment, Ji Wujing had to believe that she really regarded her as a friend.
She lowered her eyes, smiled, and said, "It's strange that I went to such an occasion. I sincerely wish you and Mr. Ye a hundred years of good together, a long time, as for the evening banquet, I will not participate. β
Xue Yan: "Why? Are you afraid of being neglected?"
"It's not. β
"Why is that? I'm here myself, don't you want to go?" she seemed a little upset.
Ji Wujing was overwhelmed and said, "With my status, I would be out of place to participate in such a high-end banquet." β
"Why do you want to belittle yourself like that? You and I are the same, what's the difference? Don't be overly arrogant, you're very good. She moved closer and took Ji Wujing's hand, "Come on, don't worry, I will never snub you." You are my friend, and no one dares to snub you. β
"I'll have someone send a set of clothes over when the time comes......"
"No, I have my own clothes. β
Xue Yan didn't insist, "It's okay." Xu Wen will also go, you are a couple, I will not break you up. I'll send a car to pick you up, and that's it. β
Xue Yan didn't sit for long before leaving, saying that she would send a few posts in person, and they were all more important friends.
Ji Wujing sent her to the door, looked at her elevator, and the smile on her face fell.
I don't understand her intentions.
A woman's sixth sense, Xue Yan is likely to know her identity.
Zhou Yan heard the movement and came out in time, "Who is this?"
"His fiancΓ©e. β
Her eyes widened, "No, what is she doing here? Will she throw you a check?"
Ji Wujing was amused by her appearance, and shook the invitation letter in her hand, "It's a pity that there is no zero." β
She took the invitation and sniffed it closely, "It's quite fragrant." She opened it again, and inside was the handwritten words, the words were really beautiful, very lady-like, she sighed, and said, "Thanks to you, this is the first time I have seen a famous lady." The words are so beautiful. β
She spread it out to Ji Turnip.
Who's to say it isn't.
"And you're going?"
"It seems that I have to go, she will personally send a car to pick me up, and she also invited Xu Wen. β
"It's going to do something. Zhou Yan sighed, "This position is not ordinarily high, killing you invisibly, or letting you retreat from the difficulty, allowing you to watch your lover lead her into the marriage hall, you can only sit in front and watch, you can only be a supporting role forever." β
"Damn, this guy is amazing. Jingjing, don't go, you can't do it. β
Ji Wujing didn't want to go, but she had to go, what could she do?
She held her face and said, "If she feels more at ease by doing this, then cooperate." lest you find fault in the future and die of trouble. β
"Aren't you uncomfortable, then?"
"It's not uncomfortable. Ji Wujing paused, and said with certainty: "It's not uncomfortable." β
The words fell, and the room seemed silent, until Shen Yu returned, breaking the dead silence.
"What are you doing? β
When Zhou Yan saw him, she seemed to think of something, "Hey, aren't you always being raised by rich women? β
"What?" Shen Yu walked over, his eyes looked at Ji Wujing, and then noticed the invitation on the coffee table.
He picked it up and looked at it, and when he saw the name, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes fell on Ji Wujing, "So what?"
Ji Wujing took the invitation card back, "It's not good." β
Zhou Yan pressed her and said, "Then you must have a unique vision, today Xiao Jingjing is going to attend a very grand engagement banquet, do you want to come up with an idea to build it for her, don't ask for the best in the audience, but please don't be at the bottom, okay?"
"Okay, if you have money, you can do it. β
"That's right, that's the crux of the matter, it's that there's no money. β
Zhou Yan felt that she couldn't be pressed to the ground and rubbed, and Cinderella was also dignified.
Shen Yu looked at Ji Wujing and asked, "What about you?"
Ji Wujing opened her mouth, and Zhou Yan answered for her, "Of course you cooperate, as long as you have the ability to spend the least amount of money to create a panache that does not belong to a celebrity, you are amazing." β
"Yes, yes, but you have to give me some benefits, right?"
"Why are you like this, your roommate is still so calculating. β
"Then I won't do it in vain. β
Zhou Yan: "Then you say, what benefits do you want?"
"Xiao Jingjing wants to invite me to dinner. He pointed at her, "and tell me a secret that no one knows." β
Zhou Yan immediately took it over and said, "I'll invite you to eat, I'll tell you the secret." β
Ji Wujing never spoke, Shen Yu ignored Zhou Yan, pushed her down, and asked, "What about you, make a statement." β
"Okay. β
Zhou Yan was afraid that she would say no, but when she saw that she answered, she was relieved and happy.
"Then let's go! Let's go find clothes first. Zhou Yan was inexplicably a little excited.
Shen Yu has a car, a second-hand Audi.
The interior of the car is very clean and looks well maintained.
Shen Yu took them to a street they had never been to and stopped at a private clothing store.
Zhou Yan said: "Are you sure we can afford it here? I don't think it's cheaper than those light luxury stores." β
"Don't worry, it's my friend, I'm breaking your bones. β
"You said it. β
Ji Wujing said: "No, press him here." β
The two got out of the car first, and Shen Yu went to park.
Ji Wujing and Zhou Yan looked left and right, this side is not very lively, they have never been here before, and there are several shops around, which seem to have little business, but the decoration style is full of one word, 'expensive'.
Shen Yu stopped the car and came over and led them into the store.
There were no salesmen inside, only the proprietress herself.
A very fashionable girl, when she heard the movement, came down from the second floor, "Old Shen, you haven't come to me for a long time." It's hard to see you. β
"Isn't this coming?"
Ji Wujing and Zhou Yan looked at the girl again and again, and felt so beautiful.
The other party also looked over, "So which one is it?"
Shen Yu pulled Ji Wujing over, "She." β
The woman's eyes looked up and down, and then led her to see her clothes.
Shen Yu found a place to sit down at will, and Zhou Yan followed Ji Wujing.
"Hello, my name is Fu Han. You can call me Hanhan, but you look younger than me, you can also call me Sister Han. β
Ji Wujing and Zhou Yan called her Sister Han in unison.
Fu Han chuckled, "It's so cute." β
She doesn't have many clothes here, but the styles of clothes are more special, small dresses are on the second floor, there are only a few, but they are really not lost to those light luxury brands.
Fu Han said: "In fact, to participate in the engagement banquet, this kind of semi-family banquet scene, you don't have to be too grand, if you are casual, you may not look too restrained, and it will look atmospheric." So I recommend this set and be more casual. β
She looked at Ji Wujing as she spoke, looking at her figure, "You have a good figure, your complexion is good, you won't lose the chain if you wear anything, it depends on what you like." β
They were discussing, Shen Yu came up, standing behind Ji Wujing and Fu Han, "After talking for a long time, don't you know that it looks good if you try it all?" I have been waiting for a long time, but you are still talking." β
Fu Han nodded again and again, "Yes, Lao Shen is right, the clothes still have to be worn on the body to know the effect, then try it, just these few pieces, try them all." β
Zhou Yan asked at the right time, "Sister Han, is this price common?"
"Of course, the person introduced by Lao Shen can also be sent. β
Then, Fu Han took the clothes and went downstairs together to help Ji Wujing try them on one by one.
It can be said that each has its own characteristics.
Fu Han looked, her figure is indeed very good, if she is a few centimeters taller, she can become a model.
In the end, Shen Yu finalized a long dress with suspenders, a large leaf-shaped pattern on the skirt gathered, and the black and white color ratio was just everywhere, this skirt was not too grand, and it would not lose its style, even if it was placed in daily life, it could be worn once or twice.
It's just that the neckline is lower.
If you can, you can hang a simple necklace, as for the hairstyle, it is more casual, her hair quality is okay, just blow a little style, and you don't need too cumbersome hair accessories.
Shen Yu noticed a scald scar on her left chest, he only glanced at it, and didn't deliberately ask.
"That's it. Ji Wujing was also finalized.
Fu Han didn't ask for money, as long as Ji Wujing's mobile phone number, saying that it would be convenient for the producer to be her model in the future, and this skirt would be regarded as a favor, so as not to shirk her for various reasons.
Fu Han insisted, and Ji Wujing had no choice but to compromise and did not pay.
After leaving the clothing store, Shen Yu took her to a beauty salon again, styled her hair, and put her on makeup.
After changing into clothes, it really went up a few notches.
Zhou Yan clapped her hands, "You really have two brushes." β
She took a photo of Ji Wujing with her mobile phone, and Shen Yu said that she wanted to take a group photo.
The two took a picture together.
She turned around, ruffled his hair, and looked carefully, this person was indeed malleable, "Don't forget the agreement, invite me to dinner afterwards, and your little secret." β
"I know, there must be a lot of you. "Girls love beauty, and Ji Wujing is naturally no exception, she stood in front of the mirror and took pictures again and again, and she was naturally very happy to see that she was good-looking, "Thank you, Shen Yu." β
When she got home, Shen Yu still had a date, so she sent them to the door and left, while Ji Wujing went back to the room, rummaged through the cabinets, took out the necklace that Xu Wen gave her before, and put it on. Maybe it's because the design of this jade pendant is chic, and it goes well with the dress.
She walked out and showed Zhou Yan, "Is it good-looking?"
"It's beautiful, and it fits perfectly. Zhou Yan quipped: "You look like a rich woman now." β
"Then I still don't wear it. β
"Why don't you wear it? Isn't this chain bought back just to wear it? You don't wear it at ordinary times, and you don't wear it at parties, when are you going to wear it?"
Ji Wujing smiled, it seemed that this was the same reason, and after tonight, she would return the necklace to Xu Wen.
Although he emphasized that he picked it up, Ji Wujing didn't believe it, and the color of this jade didn't look like something picked up.
At this time, Ji Wujing's mobile phone rang, and she went back to pick it up, it was the driver arranged by Xue Yan, and he had already gone downstairs.
She answered, hung up the phone, didn't feel a deep breath, and began to get nervous.
She cleaned up a little in the mirror and went out.
Zhou Yan personally sent her downstairs, "If you want to be natural, just treat yourself as her friend, come on." β
Zhou Yan patted her on the shoulder and cheered her up.
Ji Wujing thought it was funny, as if she was going to war, but it was really similar to fighting.
Ji Wujing went out with her skirt, Xu Wen stood by the car and waited, he was wearing formal clothes today, and his hair was meticulous and very energetic.
The moment he saw Ji Wujing come out, he was a little stunned, it was the first time he had seen such a Ji Wujing.
He stepped forward a little impatiently and stretched out his hand, Ji Wujing hesitated, but still put his hand in his palm and said, "Miss Xue is also looking for you?"
He nodded, "Called me and said there would be a car to pick me up." Unexpectedly, Miss Xue regarded us as friends. β
"yes, I'm really flattered. β
"You're beautiful today. His eyes lit up, and he spoke sincerely.
"Thank you, you're handsome today. β
He laughed, "Then let's stop flattering each other and get in the car." β
"Okay. β
He went over and pulled the car door and gentlemanly asked her to get in the car.
β¦β¦
Xue Yan arranged the engagement banquet in her own villa, which was named after her and was a gift from the old man.
The manor is like a fairy tale, very beautiful and dreamy.
She likes it very much, so she wants to arrange her life events to be held here.
The feast was set out on the great lawn.
The car drove for more than an hour before driving into the manor area, and the red carpet was spread out at the gate, and the car went all the way in, both sides were carefully arranged and beautiful, and stopped at the designated location.
With Ji Wujing's brain, she couldn't imagine the luxury here, but when she saw it, she knew that she couldn't imagine the level of wealth.
After getting out of the car, Xu Wen and Ji Wujing were a little restrained, after all, they had never participated in such a pompous banquet.
Fortunately, someone came to greet them and led them into the banquet hall.
There are a lot of guests, but there are more waiters in uniform clothes, and they are very busy coming and going, they come a little early, and the guests have not yet arrived.
Ji Wujing and they really didn't have any identity, so Xue Yan couldn't take care of this side for the time being, and Miss Welcome took them directly to the designated place to sit down.
It was already an honor to be able to participate, and none of them had any delusions about whether she could greet her in person.
Xu Wen held her hand tightly, Ji Wujing could feel his excitement, and after sitting down, he was also a little restrained, his back was straight, and he didn't dare to relax and slack off for a moment.
This table, for the time being, is just the two of them, and the location is quite outskirts.
Ji Wujing only looked around once, then withdrew her gaze and fixed her gaze on the cup and plate in front of her.
There are so many plates, so many cups, I don't know what to pay attention to. Ji Wujing doesn't understand these etiquette.
In the end, she had to put her eyes on the tablecloth, not wanting to look more, for fear that she would have unrealistic ideas. Just one glance, she was dazzled.
β¦β¦
Inside the house, Ye Lansheng was resting in the room, with nothing to do, and he was busy outside, but he seemed to be idle.
Sheng Shu was busy, and from time to time he had to come in to see him, for fear that he would run away halfway. But she was too worried, and with his current condition, he couldn't go far.
Xue Yan came in and handed him a cigarette, Ye Lansheng pushed it, "Don't smoke it for the time being." β
He sat down and crossed Erlang's legs, "Everyone is busy today, but you are the most idle." I have to say, I still envy you. β
"What do you envy me? envy me for being lame?"
He laughed, "As your brother-in-law, I still have to say a word, treat my sister well, since you want to marry, then don't think that I will cover you up in the future." In addition, as a brother, I also want to remind you that when my sister really likes a person, there is no room for sand in her eyes, and I think her recent momentum is really interested in you, so if you can break it, you can break it off quickly. If she is allowed to interfere, I am afraid that she will have to play people to death to be happy. β
Ye Lansheng shook his head, "When you say that, I'm really scared." β
"It's too late. Xue Yan was afraid to pat him on the leg, and said, "Okay, I have to go out to greet guests, I know you don't like to socialize, but at the moment, you are still ready to prepare and go out to make a show." β
"Got it. β
After Xue Yan left, Ye Lansheng took a cane and stood up, walked to the window, opened a little curtain, and looked out, just enough to see the scene on the entire lawn.
Today's engagement banquet was attended by a lot of people, and the guests invited by the two families combined had hundreds of tables.
Now it's been deleted.
The Sheng family also came, Zhou Zhan came with his parents, his parents were very punctual, so they came very early, they were relatives, so they went into the house to rest and help.
Zhou Zhan sat bored in the hall, and when he caught a glimpse of a figure passing by, he thought he was dazzled.
If you haven't seen it for too long, you won't be dazzled and hallucinated.
He subconsciously got up and followed, and when he arrived in the corridor, there were only them around, so he shouted, "Ji Wujing?"
Ji Wujing paused, her steps slowed down, and when she turned around, she saw Zhou Zhan, who she hadn't seen for a long time.
He smiled between his eyebrows, but soon fell again, as if he had thought of something, a little uneasy, and quickly approached, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"
"I'm a friend of Miss Xue, she invited me here, and I have an invitation letter. Ji Wujing explained that she had reason to suspect that his cautious appearance now was because she was afraid that she would make trouble for Ye Lansheng.
Of course, he is not to blame for thinking so.
Zhou Zhan obviously didn't expect it, "You and Xue Yan are friends?"
"yes. It does sound ridiculous, but Xue Yan said so, Ji Wujing was annoyed that she should bring the invitation in her hand, so that it would not make it look like she was lying.
"I'll go to the bathroom first, if you don't believe me, you can follow me out later, my invitation is on my boyfriend's side. β
At this time, you can only block it with Xu Wen.
Zhou Zhan: "You have a boyfriend?"
"yes. β
Ji Wujing didn't say much to him, she went to the bathroom first, she had been holding back for a while, and she ran over to the toilet as a last resort.
Zhou Zhan's mind was heavy, and he stood on the porch and did not leave.
Ji Wujing finished going to the toilet, and he was still there.
Hearing the movement, he immediately turned around, but he didn't know what to say, as if he had already finished what he had to say.
I don't know why, the feeling of being stared at by Zhou Zhan is not too good, which makes her want to get into the crack in the ground on the spot. She lowered her eyes and said, "Then I'll go back first, otherwise it's weird for my boyfriend to sit there alone." β
Zhou Zhan was suddenly clumsy, but he didn't want her to misunderstand, as soon as she passed him, Zhou Zhan grabbed her wrist, but he grabbed it and didn't know what to say.
"I'll send you there. β
"No, even if I can't find it, there are so many waiters outside, I can just ask. β
"It's okay, I'm going over anyway. β
He was quite firm, and then smiled at her, then changed the topic and went out through the side door with her, "I have a lot of contact with Zhou Yan, I heard her say that you share a house together?"
"Well, that's a coincidence. β
"That's good, two girls working in a different place and being able to help each other. β
Ji Wujing nodded, and said in her heart that Zhou Yan didn't know how much to tell him this time. You'll have to ask when you go back in the evening.
Zhou Zhan didn't have anything to say and kept talking, Ji Wujing should be a little perfunctory, and met the elders halfway, Zhou Zhan greeted people, Ji Wujing waited for a while, and then secretly left.
No one noticed her leaving, Zhou Zhan knew, but he didn't stop him, he just looked absent-mindedly, watching her figure disappear into the bustling city, and then couldn't find it.
After he finished chatting with people, he ran to Ye Lansheng's room and rushed in, with a fierce momentum, as if he was going to fight.
Ye Lansheng turned his head and wrinkled his eyebrows, "You are getting bigger and smaller." β
Zhou Zhan threw the door at him, with a straight face, and glared at him fiercely.
Ye Lansheng was inexplicable, he couldn't understand where the anger in his eyes came from, and he had offended him about something. Could it be that it's because of Ji Wujing?
This time, he wouldn't just let him punch.
Zhou Zhan clenched his fists, "What kind of mentality did you bring Ji Wujing to the engagement banquet?"
Ye Lansheng was stunned and didn't react, "Who are you talking about?"
"Who are you talking about!" Zhou Zhan felt very angry, he felt disgusted for Ye Lansheng's bad behavior, and he wanted to smash his fist at his face, but in a scene like this today, he knew that he couldn't do anything.
"Where's she?"
"It's already at the banquet, and it's just a little girl, are you a big old man playing with people like this? You torture people to death, and your heart is happy? You are no longer the cousin I used to know, you are now an animal. β
Ye Lansheng's forehead was bruised, and he scolded a beast quite slippery.
"Zhou Zhan, don't think that I really won't beat you. He pressed the fire and said word by word, this time he was really wronged, he didn't know that Ji Wujing was also here.
"You can't beat it now. Zhou Zhan said disdainfully, "If you really want to beat me, I have a reason to beat you, I'm afraid that you won't beat me." β
"You!"
As she was talking, the door was pushed open, Xue Yan had already dressed up, and she came in happily, she immediately felt the tense atmosphere in the room, her eyes swept over Zhou Zhan, and then walked to Ye Lansheng's side, "What little secret are you two cousins talking about?"
Zhou Zhan twitched the corners of his mouth, "I won't bother you." β
He glanced at Xue Yan, then turned and walked out of the room.
Xue Yan hugged Ye Lansheng's waist, looked up at him, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"The kid has a temper and touches his cake, and he is not happy. β
"Huh, what cake?"
"Nothing. Ye Lansheng lowered his eyes and met her eyes, Xue Yan became more and more gentle, and when she faced him, she was as gentle as water.
Ye Lansheng's eyes were cold, and he didn't hide that he was not interested in her, he pinched her hair and said, "You should know that I am not interesting to you, the engagement and marriage are just family arrangements, I am too lazy to resist, and it doesn't matter who my wife is." In the car accident before, I saved you out of humanitarianism, even if there was a dog sitting next to me, I would save you, you understand?"
Xue Yan was not annoyed, still smiling, and said, "Are you scared?"
"I'm afraid, I'm just not afraid, I just don't want to bother fighting you. β
Xue Yan kissed him on the chin and said with a smile: "It's too late, you only have one way to go now, and that is to fall in love with me." β
She lay on his chest and lay comfortably for a while, and then, as if thinking of something, she looked up at him and said, "I have invited a lot of interesting people today, but after today, I believe that these people will be self-aware." β
Ye Lansheng raised his eyebrows, combined with what Zhou Zhan said just now, he immediately guessed why Ji Wujing appeared at today's banquet, Xue Yan personally invited her.
β¦β¦
Xue Yan did invite a lot of people, including Ji Jingjing, to share the table with Ji Wujing.
She probably invited all the suspected ones and classified them at one table, which can be called Ye Lansheng's lover.
When Ji Wujing saw Ji Jingjing, she guessed a little, and when the table was filled one after another, for some reason, Ji Wujing felt a little funny.
The table can accommodate fifteen people, and they all end up filling.
It turns out that Ye Lansheng is really blooming all over the place.
Xue Yan's trick was really good, Ji Wujing thought like this, she not only swore sovereignty, but also let them know that Ye Lansheng had no sincerity towards them, so she completely gave up.
But Ji Wujing felt that this was really a superfluous thing for her.
Gradually, the tables around me began to fill up.
These tables all seem to be similar, but the location is very particular.
In a family like theirs, setting up a banquet and inviting guests is a kind of science, and it is not just a matter of inviting people casually.
Ji Wujing regarded this experience as an eye-opener, she may not have the opportunity to participate in such a grand banquet in the future, the pomp is so big, those who come and go are either rich or expensive, they are all heads and faces, have been in news magazines, and are among the top two bigwigs in China.
A shrimp like her, to see each other once, the three of them are lucky.
Ji Wujing adjusted her mentality, the time was approaching eight o'clock, all the guests were seated, the waiters were not moving around, and they stood in line neatly.
Then, today's protagonist comes on.
Xue Yan and Ye Lansheng held hands with each other and stepped on the red carpet, and the lights focused on them. Xue Yan is really beautiful today, no matter what aspect she is, she hangs every girl in their place.
Xu Wen was stunned.
What an honor it is for such a high-ranking person to be friends with him.
It's just an engagement banquet, and it's like getting married, and I don't know what kind of pomp and circumstance it has to be when you get officially married.
Ji Wujing couldn't help but take a video with her mobile phone and sent it to Zhou Yan to let her have a long look and see the faces of the rich.
A sentence that expresses everything.
They each said two sentences, Xue Yan said a little more, Ji Wujing suspected that she had studied broadcasting and hosting, and told the little story between them too beautifully.
Ji Wujing has strong empathy, so she was very moved and almost cried.
What a good couple, sweet couple.
Ye Lansheng was much more perfunctory, reciting the manuscript mode, and finished the two sentences explained.
Put on your engagement ring, then cut the cake and open the champagne, the process is pretty much the same.
Finally waited for the banquet to start, it was already eight o'clock, the dishes were served quickly, the plates of exquisite dishes, and when all the dishes were served, Ji Wujing took a video for Zhou Yan again, so that she could see what rich people eat.
Zhou Yan: [Can you pack it? Do you want to keep it until the end, take a bag with someone, and pack it all back?]
For the sake of decency, Ji Wujing worked hard to maintain dining etiquette, not in a hurry or impatient, and ate slowly.
Xu Wen sighed, "We can't experience the happiness of rich people." β
Who's to say it isn't.
Xu Wen said, "Eat more." β
"Hmm. Ji Wujing nodded, eating vegetables a little faster.
Ye Lansheng and Xue Yan, under the guidance of their elders, toasted the distinguished guests, table by table, without stopping.
Sheng Shu stood beside Ye Lansheng, looking at Xue Yan with their family heirloom jade hanging around her neck, and smiled with relief.
When the toast arrived at the Shen family banquet, Sheng Shu saw the people in the seat, he was slightly stunned, and his brows couldn't help but tighten.
Yao Jingqian was among them, sitting next to Ye Zehuan, and Ye Zehuan's mother, Jin Fengqing, sat next to the head of the Shen family, smiling and greeting them.
I heard that Jin Fengqing and Shen Qinhao, the current head of the Shen family, are together, and now they see the two sitting together, which seems to confirm the rumors. However, Jin Fengqing's mother's family are all politicians, so it is not surprising that she will appear on the current occasion.
At the beginning, she and Ye Pei broke up peacefully, and there was no bloody plot.
So goodbye is still a friend.
After all, interests are involved, and no one wants to tear their faces, so they can get together and disperse in order to get a win-win situation.
Now Jin Fengqing is following Shen Qinhao, and she can be regarded as a family member.
Even Ye Zehuan and Yao Jingqian also came.
Sheng Shu's face changed slightly, and he stared at Yao Jingqian for a moment before turning his gaze away. She was very displeased that this person appeared in such an identity.
The Shen family has a deep friendship with the Xue family, and the Ye family is average, and even has festivals in the shopping mall.
But there are no real enemies in the mall.
Ye Pei could also greet Shen Qinhao in a friendly manner, greet each other, and clink glasses with Jin Fengqing, smiling all over his face.
Yao Jingqian toasted with Ye Zehuan.
Yao Jingqian looked at Ye Lansheng and said with a smile: "I wish you a good and long time." β
She clinked glasses with the two of them, and then took a sip of the wine from the cup.
Yao Jingqian came back after changing her identity and name, and she is now called Yue Yuanqian.
After walking several tables in a row, Sheng Shu was afraid that Ye Lansheng would be tired, so he asked the two of them to rest for a while.
With such a vacancy, Xue Yan didn't forget that there was a special table at this banquet, and she needed to go over for a trip, so she said: "This time I invited some personal friends to come over, and I haven't had time to talk to them, so I'll go over with Ah Sheng to entertain you, do you think it's okay?"
Sheng Shu looked at Ye Lansheng, "Can you still hold on?" or I'll go over for you." β
"It's okay, I'll go with you. β
"That'll do. β
Sheng Shu found Zhou Zhan to accompany him, and a group of three or four people walked towards Ji Wujing's table.
When they came over, Ji Wujing was eating heavily, and when they were happy, they appeared.
Hurriedly put down the chopsticks, the corners of her mouth were still stained with sauce, Xu Wen saw it, handed her a tissue, and she quickly wiped it clean.
Xue Yan was generous and decent, "I'm sorry to invite you over, I didn't have time to entertain you until now, I'm really sorry for being slack." β
A circle of people laughed and understood, and no one spoiled the current harmony.
Ji Wujing, like everyone else, stood up, faced them, smiled, and expressed her blessings sincerely.
The team is quite neat, one by one taking turns to say blessings, Ji Wujing thought about it, and there was only one sentence of a hundred years of good cooperation, but the people in front of him said it.
Damn, do you still have to test your literary talent at this time? It's not a draft.
She really pondered, and her eyes caught a glimpse of the necklace around Xue Yan's neck, and her heart suddenly tightened.
Subconsciously raised his hand and pinched the pendant around his neck, how could it be exactly the same?
At this time, it was already her turn to congratulate her.
Xue Yan's eyes also fell on her, looking at her with a smile, waiting for her blessing.
However, Ji Wujing was speechless for a while, and Xue Yan saw that she had been holding her chest, so she walked up to her and held her hand, "What's wrong?
Xue Yan's hand strength was a little big, Ji Wujing's hand was pulled down by her at once, and the hot pendant around her neck was undoubtedly revealed.
