Chapter 445: A "Hongmen Banquet"
Chapter 445: A "Hongmen Banquet"
Chen Ziyu followed the address sent to him by Xiao Ran all the way to the most upscale five-star hotel in Yunhua City, and he was very strange, is it necessary to come to such a high-end restaurant for a family dinner? Even if he is rich, he will not be so luxurious! But no matter what, since he has become a member of the Chen family, he should work hard to adapt to this kind of life.
Not long after, Chen Ziyu came to the designated private room, stood at the door, straightened his sleeves, took a deep breath, and tried to keep himself calm. He put his palm facing him, sighed, and sniffed for any residual smell of wine in his mouth. After everything was fine, Chen Ziyu slowly pushed open the door of the private room.
There were a total of four people in the private room, Chen Qinghua and his wife, Li Chengran and Li Xue. Chen Ziyu stood at the door and was a little at a loss, what was the situation? Didn't you mean a family banquet? Why are there still Li Xue's father and daughter? What about Chen Feiyu?
At this time, Xiao Ran saw that Chen Ziyu was still stunned, and she hurriedly greeted with a smile: "Ziyu, come here, what are you still doing in a daze, come and do it!"
Chen Ziyu hesitated and moved to the big round table step by step, wanting to find a random place to sit down and deal with things, but Xiao Ran pulled him over: "Ziyu, what are you doing there, come here, sit here ......" Xiao Ran pulled Chen Ziyu to sit next to Li Xue, but he moved to Chen Qinghua's side
Li Xue peeked at Chen Ziyu beside her with her spare eyes, lowered her head a little shyly, and kept twisting the corners of her clothes with her two hands. She has always been flamboyant and domineering, but now she is rarely shy and reserved, just like a girl who is just beginning to fall in love, Chen Ziyu feels very uncomfortable sitting next to Li Xue.
Li Chengran has been observing his son's daughter and Chen Ziyu since Chen Ziyu entered the door. Chen Ziyu was wearing a royal blue straight suit, showing his tall and slender figure, Li Chengran looked at Chen Ziyu and couldn't help laughing: "Eh, I said old Chen, have you noticed that this kid has the temperament of your youth? He looks exactly the same as when you were young!"
Hearing this, Chen Qinghua laughed out loud, proudly pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "Hahaha...... That's natural, my son Chen Qinghua, can be sent there!"
Li Chengran also laughed: "Hahaha...... Our Xiaoxue's vision is really not covered, and we will fall in love when we see each other! Come on, come on, Xiaoxue, don't give a toast to your future parents-in-law yet!"
Hearing this, Chen Ziyu's head exploded, and he stood up "rubbing": "Dad, Mom, you ...... What does this mean?!"
Xiao Ran saw that his son was a little emotional, and thought that he was surprised to know that his blind date was Li Xue, after all, I don't know how many sons and brothers are waiting to be her concubine behind such a wealthy daughter, and Li Xue doesn't look down on it at all. Chen Ziyu easily captured the heart of Li Xue, the eldest lady.
Xiao Ran grabbed Chen Ziyu's arm and tried to make him sit back in his position: "Ziyu, what are you doing, sit down first......
"Mom! I still have something to do, go back first!" Chen Ziyu raised his leg and was about to leave, Li Xue stood up suddenly: "You want to go back to accompany her, right?!"
Hearing this, Chen Ziyu's entire body froze there. Seeing this, the corners of Li Xue's lips curled slightly, and she stopped talking.
Li Chengran saw the conversation between them and knew that his daughter had caught some handle on that kid, so he smiled secretly and drank a glass of wine with his head down.
"Do you want to know how I knew she existed?" Li Xue had a look of victory on her face.
Chen Ziyu stiffened and turned around, and said expressionlessly: "You check me?"
Li Xue shrugged her shoulders and pouted: "No, I'm just...... I don't like to do things that I don't know ......."
"You!" Chen Ziyu was so angry that his back molars itched, and his hands hanging on his sides were tightly clenched into fists.
"How is it? Do you still want to go?" Li Xue seemed to enjoy this process of conquering a wild horse.
Chen Ziyu sat back in his place sullenly, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it all. Xiao Ran and Chen Qinghua looked at each other, and then, Xiao Ran once again broke the somewhat frozen atmosphere just now.
She picked up her glass and stood up: "Come on, let's have a toast together!"
Li Xue sat back next to Chen Ziyu with a smile, Li Chengran poked Li Xue's arm with his elbow, and gave her a hint that Li Xue would understand. While pouring wine in his wine cup, he stood up: "Uncle, aunt, I should respect you first! Come, uncle, aunt, Xue'er toast the second elder!"
Xiao Ran and Chen Qinghua also raised their glasses, on this occasion, it is usually Xiao Ran who is supporting, Chen Qinghua has coronary heart disease and should not drink more. As Chen Qinghua's wife, Xiao Eryan is simply comfortable with this kind of entertainment.
She smiled and half-jokingly said to Li Xue with a wine: "Xue'er, you are still called uncle and aunt, is it time to change your words?"
Hearing this, Chen Ziyu stood up abruptly again, and his voice was cold: "I don't agree!"
Seeing this, Li Xue began to keep coughing and squeezing her eyebrows to remind Chen Ziyu. Chen Ziyu picked up a glass of wine, drank it all with a tilt of his neck, and finally left the table, Li Xue said behind him: "Chen Ziyu! You'd better think about it! I'll give you three chances!"
Chen Ziyu walked to the door and stopped, with his back to Li Xue, Li Chengran and Chen Qinghua and his wife, his voice mixed with sadness: "Thank you very much for this "Hongmen Banquet" arranged by my parents!" After speaking, he opened the door and walked out.
Chen Ziyu almost left the hotel running. He didn't understand why his parents were so anxious to arrange a marriage partner for him! Just after they met, they didn't want him to stay with them more and fulfill his filial piety?
He didn't understand why he couldn't get what he wanted as he wanted! Luo Didiu was arranged by God to be by his side, he had loved her for so many years, but in the end, he watched the woman he loved so much follow someone else! After 28 years, he recognized his biological parents, but he hated to force him to marry a woman he didn't know and didn't love!
Chen Ziyu only felt that his life was both ridiculous and pathetic. The funny thing is that the woman he loves with all his heart is not himself in the end, and the sad thing is that his parents, who just recognized him, were eager to let him marry a wealthy daughter. Needless to say, Chen Ziyu knows that this is the exchange of interests and resource integration in the business field. And he's just one of those links!
Luo Diu is here, she has not slept all night since she learned the fact that Lu Mingyuan was about to disappear. She and Lu Mingyuan talked for a long night, and in the end, Lu Mingyuan decided to stay for three more days before going back......
