Chapter 122: The City Lord's Dinner

Ye Heng and Murong Jun drank and talked, unconsciously, Murong Jun was drunk, after all, her current physical condition was not very good, and Ye Heng's alcohol consumption had always been good, and drinking alcohol had helped him control his injuries. Despite this, Ye Heng was also seven points drunk.

Ye Heng carried the drunk Murong Jun behind him and walked slowly towards Kong Ying's residence. He tried his best to control his pace and walk as smoothly as possible, so as not to bump Murong Jun on his back. Murong Jun muttered in his mouth, not knowing what he was talking about, and it didn't take long for her to fall asleep on Ye Heng's back.

The hustle and bustle of the long street did not attract Ye Heng, he carried Murong Jun on his back, all the way forward, and gradually disappeared into the crowded street.

Zhou Sisi stood in front of the window, looking at the world of red lights outside the window. She likes this feeling of "being at the top of the mountain and seeing the mountains at a glance", and her heart is full of pride in being in a high position and looking down on everything.

The street outside the window is bustling, how many of so many people are willing to be mediocre in their busyness? Their life's pursuit is nothing more than the word food and clothing, how can they not be like this in the past? All along, Zhou Sisi's greatest wish is to find someone who loves each other and support each other to spend their lives together. After marriage, he taught his husband and children, and lived a peaceful life.

However, her father's arrangement made her know that life could be something else! The experience of the imperial capital made her personally experience that life can not only be ordinary but also gorgeous and colorful! This is a kind of life that she could never have imagined in the past or dreamed of, and the cornerstone of supporting this kind of life is the scorching power and the wealth that rivals the wealth! These two things must be obtained by herself!

Now, a shortcut is in front of him, no matter what, he has to firmly grasp this opportunity in his hands! Zhou Sisi's eyes were blazing, and he looked up at the roof of the immortal residence. There are a total of five floors in the immortal residence, and she can only succumb to the third floor now, Zhou Sisi secretly swore that one day, she will live on the top floor of the immortal residence, not only that, this world is so big, no matter when and where, you have to come if you want to come, go if you want to go, do whatever you want, not limited to anyone!

At this time, someone knocked on the door, Zhou Sisi collected her heart and put on a coquettish smile, she knew that the person she was waiting for had finally come.

Ouyang Jian was in high spirits and took Zhou Sisi to attend the dinner held by Liu Haobo, the city lord of Wuling City. Of course, the standard of such a dinner is not low, and ordinary small forces are not even qualified to be invited. The dignitaries and businessmen in the city naturally left early when they received the invitation, for fear of missing the opportunity. Ouyang Jian's attendance is, of course, a hug from the front and back, and the stars are holding the moon. And these many stars holding the moon are all well-known figures in Wuling City and the surrounding areas, and a large part of them are handsome men and women of the same age as Ouyang Jian.

The men's demeanor and good manners are good, and the women's showmanship and jewels are very eye-catching. Zhou Sisi smiled skillfully, and naturally snuggled up to Ouyang Jian's side, this seemingly well-behaved and intimate action was full of powerful lethality. This is to use actions to tell those girls with ulterior motives not to try to get close to Ouyang Jian, this man is already famous, this is the old lady's dish, don't move!

Zhou Sisi's behavior made Ouyang Jian feel big, she had always been lukewarm to herself, but now she took the initiative to get close to herself and give herself enough face in front of everyone, which greatly satisfied his vanity. Therefore, Ouyang Jian was even more proud and full of pride.

To be able to participate in such a dinner, few are fuel-efficient lamps, it can be said that all of them are human spirits, on the surface, the guests and hosts are happy, but in fact, they are secretly looking for opportunities to further develop their personal relationships. Therefore, Ouyang Jian, as the absolute protagonist today, is very popular with everyone, and the people who accompany Ouyang Jian are constantly changing.

Ouyang Jian raised his glass and talked from time to time, coping with it easily. Zhou Sisi sometimes accompanies him, sometimes turns around and leaves to make friends with celebrities, not clingy, gives Ouyang Jian enough space, and does not leave out in the cold, he comes back to accompany him in a timely manner, and he is quite accurate in his proportions, which makes Ouyang Jian feel very ironed, and his mood is naturally good.

Many people kept passing in front of Ouyang Jian, trying their best to attract Ouyang Jian's attention, so as to make friends with this powerful man from the imperial capital, but there were few people who could really attract Ouyang Jian's attention, and Kong

Ying happens to be one of them. Because Kong Yingming's identity on the face is the new owner of Fengyu Building, let alone Ouyang Jian, even his father Ouyang Yunqing dare not underestimate it.

Before, the owner of the wind and rain building has always been a mysterious figure who has not seen the end of the dragon, and people have no way to start if they want to make friends. However, Kong Ying left Xiangyunzhuang and returned to Fengyu Building, and soon after, Fengyu Building issued a notice appointing Kong Ying as the new owner of the building, with full authority to handle everything in Fengyu Building. In the blink of an eye, Kong Ying has become a hot figure in Wuling City, and many forces want to get close to him through various means, so it is not uncommon to invite Kong Ying to participate in the gathering of the upper elites, and it is not surprising that Kong Ying appeared at today's dinner. Kong Ying is one of the few people who can compete with Ouyang Jian, and naturally attracts Ouyang Jian's attention.

These young talents who can come to the dinner are all elite children carefully cultivated by different families, and they naturally have their own set of experiences in receiving people and things. Among the people who attended the party, not all of them wanted to take the opportunity to get close to Ouyang Jian. They knew in their hearts that it was absolutely impossible to gain the trust of Ouyang Jian, the second lord from the imperial capital, through a few gatherings, even if Ouyang Jian looked at you differently, and he returned to the imperial capital in a few days, all your efforts would be useless in Wuling City. Rather than bothering to get nothing good, it is better to take the opportunity to mingle with the local super forces, Kong Ying is naturally the first choice in the hearts of these people.

Kong Ying treats people and things very measuredly, neither too enthusiastic and false exaggeration, nor deliberately cold, which makes people feel cold and difficult. No matter who she is, Kong Ying is gentle and elegant, making people feel natural and comfortable, like a spring breeze. Therefore, like Ouyang Jian, there were not a few people hovering around Kong Ying.

Kong Ying was talking happily here, Ouyang Jian came with Zhou Sisi with a smile, and the others naturally made room for them. Liu Chenliang, the eldest son of the city lord, happened to pass by very skillfully, and introduced each other to the two sides. A few people sometimes talk about some places of interest around Wuling City, sometimes comment on the customs and food with local characteristics, sometimes exchange experience in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and sometimes discuss the understanding of martial arts.

Zhou Sisi just started to occasionally participate in the topic of discussion, and slowly just listened with a smile, and finally quietly confessed in Ouyang Jian's ear, and went back to the Immortal Residence first, telling Ouyang Jian to go back to rest early and drink less wine outside.

Ouyang Jian nodded in agreement, and watched Zhou Sisi leave, with an approving look in his eyes. Ouyang Jian intends to get acquainted with Kong Ying, and brings Zhou Sisi over, men and women match, it is relatively easy to create topics, even if you can't find a common language for a while, there are beautiful women mediating in the middle, and they will not be cold; After the two sides establish a relationship, men and women should not interject when they talk, this is the common cognition of very macho figures, and a superior like Ouyang Jian cares more about this kind of thing, if Zhou Sisi continues to interject, he will be considered to be ignorant of etiquette, lack of education, and even embarrass him; , which not only avoided the embarrassment of his own situation, but also left space for everyone, and at the same time did not forget to tell Ouyang Jian to pay attention to his body and care for him. Zhou Sisi's performance in the whole process is very perfect, and he is also very clever in dealing with people, who can not envy such a stunning beauty who integrates vision, talent, and emotional intelligence?

Although Zhou Sisi quit halfway, she still left a good impression on the people attending the dinner, and most of them showed reluctance to see her leave. Zhou Sisi's beautiful and fragrant appearance and dignified and elegant temperament are destined to be the most beautiful scenery tonight. Looking at everyone's reactions, Ouyang Jian was very satisfied and proud, and secretly said in his heart: Only such a peerless woman is worthy of the favor of this king, wait, you will be in the palm of this king sooner or later!

Ye Heng carried Murong Jun back to the room where she and Yun Yiyao lived, gently put her on the bed, helped her take off her shoes, pulled the quilt over her body, and told Yiyao to prepare more hot water before exiting the room of the two.

The night breeze blew Ye Heng's hair, making his brain a little clearer, and there was nothing to do, Ye Heng decided to go out for a walk

。 Finally came to Wuling City, and he hadn't walked around yet, Ye Heng wanted to familiarize himself with the surroundings first, relax tomorrow, and take the Yun family brothers and sisters out to play.

Walking around the street in front of the Fengyu Building at will, watching all kinds of people hurrying by, Ye Heng suddenly felt so tired and lonely. In this bustling city, where to put your tiredness and lovesickness?

Ye Heng squatted down and sat on the stone steps along the street, his eyes glazed, watching the pedestrians flash in front of him. Where are they going, in a hurry? Are they going back to a warm nest with a virtuous wife and lovely children? Are they looking for a temporary shelter, shedding their fatigue and disguise, wiping away the tears and heartaches they have endured all day, washing their faces, lying on the cold bed, and healing alone.

In a trance, Ye Heng saw a luxurious carriage coming along the flow of people, he stood up indifferently and walked to the middle of the road with the carriage.

The guard of the carriage immediately separated one person and shouted to drive Ye Heng away, but as if he hadn't heard, he stood in the middle of the road, his eyes fixed on the tent on the carriage.

The shouts of the guards obviously alarmed the people in the car, a jade hand picked up the brocade curtain in front of the car, and then, a delicate face with a closed moon and a shy flower appeared in front of him, it was Zhou Sisi.

Looking at Ye Heng who was blocking in front of the car, Zhou Sisi was shocked, quickly calmed down, and whispered back to the guards, saying, "A drunkard, don't worry about him." ”

turned to Ye Heng and said: "You and I are going in different directions, you stop my car, after one side, my car still has to run along the road, and you continue to move forward on your road, the distance between us will go farther and farther, I hope you and I are well, each cherish." After speaking, he put down the brocade curtain in front of him and disappeared in front of Ye Heng. Ye Heng Muran turned sideways and stepped aside, and the carriage swarmed by his entourage and guards.

Watching Zhou Sisi's carriage pass in front of him blankly, at this moment, Ye Heng felt deeply lonely and helpless from his heart to the depths of his soul. At this moment, the city was prosperous, thousands of lights were shining, and the hurried flow of people floated past Ye Heng's side, which made Ye Heng's loneliness even more pale and desolate.

In this glorious city, there are colorful things that belong to Zhou Sisi and a wonderful life that belongs to her. She lived in a mansion, went out with her, and served in and served, and many people surrounded her, like a noble empress on top.

And now Ye Heng, his cultivation has plummeted, he is destitute, and he is adrift in this strange city, except for the injuries that will erupt at any time and the loneliness of the night, there is almost nothing. Of course, it can't be said that he has nothing, at least he still has the pursuit and persistence of love, but these are so insignificant compared to everything he sees.

He couldn't open his mouth to tell about the hardships and pains of searching for this way, and the torment of thinking from time to time, his persistence was so ridiculous in the face of reality. He wanted to laugh and let himself behave freely, but he couldn't laugh, because his heart was depressed, his mouth was bitter, and he couldn't pretend to be able to disguise it, so he could only keep breathing heavily, relieving his mood a little, and trying to control it, so as not to let the tears release his disappointment and heartache.

Trying to pull the corners of his mouth, showing a smile that is more poignant than crying, he wanted to say something, but a sullen breath blocked his throat, so that he didn't dare to make a sound, he was afraid of making a strange sound, betraying the tearing pain he was desperately trying to hide!

Ye Heng wanted to catch up and go forward, using all his strength to keep the person he thought about day and night, and told her that he missed and cared. But as soon as this thought arose, Ye Heng's fingers were clenched tightly together, trying his best to control his impulses. It's not that Ye Heng lost the courage to love, but that he didn't want to destroy the situation that Zhou Sisi had worked so hard to manage.

Zhou Sisi cautiously met with herself, and didn't even dare to show that the two of them were old acquaintances in front of others, and she didn't even dare to call out her name, Ye Heng knew that she did it on purpose.

However, Ye Heng understands what she said, you and I are not fellow travelers, so why bother with it? I have chosen a broad road, naturally I want to gallop all the way, don't come to stop me; you continue to stagger forward on your road, from then on, each of you cherishes, and there is no intersection.

This is a euphemism to tell Ye Heng that you and I are destined to break up from now on!
