Chapter 10: Above the Banquet
"Madame, Mademoiselle...... She's gone. ”
Before the banquet, the maid opened Miss Xu's room and saw that it was empty, and there was no one in the villa, and after telling Su Qingyu about it, she didn't really hear it for a while, so she asked again.
When she understood it this time, she couldn't hold back her voice, and directly raised her voice violently.
"What are you doing? Don't you want to follow you without leaving an inch?"
Those uneasy premonitions in her heart came true, and Su Qingyu, who had always been gentle and elegant, couldn't control her temper, but fortunately, Xu Yi, who could vaguely hear what was happening from her words, saw the eyes of the three Gu family sweep over, and immediately coughed lightly as a reminder.
Su Qingyu turned her head a little embarrassed to look at the Gu family, and then after glancing at her husband, she turned around and took the maid to the lounge where Xu Yuan was.
is about to prepare for the opening, and when such an accident happens, Xu Yi's whole mind also follows his wife.
Gu Suiyun saw the performance of the Xu family and his wife, his face was silent, but he secretly guessed what happened.
The fact that the Gu heir's heir chose a marriage partner made all the guests curious, and as soon as Gu Jingshi and his wife entered the venue with Gu Suiyun, they were surrounded and congratulated.
Xu Yi took advantage of this opportunity to simply leave this group of people and quietly left the venue.
A second before his back disappeared, Gu Suiyun happened to turn his head and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw him leaving.
What tricks is this Xu family playing?
……
Su Qingyu came to the lounge and heard several servants gossiping about Xu Yuan opening them one by one, and what role Lu Yihui played in it, she was so angry that the corners of her forehead jumped.
At the beginning, they saw that the signs between Xu Yuan and Lu Yihui were wrong, so they sent the latter out of the country directly, but they didn't expect that when he came back, the relationship between the two became even closer.
At this time, another maid found Xu Yuan's book from the bedside table in the lounge, and looked at the words on it accusing the husband and wife of ignoring her feelings and making decisions about the marriage privately, she couldn't bear it and wanted to sever the kinship.
The daughter who has been held in the palm of her hand by the husband and wife since she was a child said such a thing!
For a while, Su Qingyu only felt that the qi and blood in his heart were surging, his eyes were black, and he was almost about to faint to death.
When the servants saw their wife's appearance, they each exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly went to help, and even panicked and almost dialed the emergency number.
Xu Yi just entered the door and saw this chaotic scene, the smile that was usually on his face disappeared suddenly, he frowned tightly, and snorted coldly.
"What the hell is going on?"
Seeing her husband coming, Su Qingyu seemed to have found the backbone of her heart in an instant, with a sad and desolate expression on her face, and she threw herself in front of him with Xu Yuan's book.
"Ayuan ran away, she refused to marry, and she wanted to cut off relations with us!"
Hearing this, Xu Yi's face instantly turned black as the bottom of a pot, the corners of his forehead were so angry that his muscles were bruised, and he took the book and looked at it at a glance, and the more he looked at it, the more angry he became.
"This unfilial girl, she dared to run away with that kid from the Lu family, on such an important day today, she wants me to lose the face of the Xu family!"
"Break off the relationship, if she has the guts, she will never come back for the rest of her life, otherwise, I will break her legs!"
Complaining is complaining, the most important thing at the moment is that the news of the marriage has been released, Xu Yuan has run away, how should the Gu family explain to the full house of guests.
Xu Yi only felt anxious.
"Didn't you let you do a good ideological work for her before? In a family like the Gu family, Xiao Gu always has such character and ability, what else is she unwilling to do? Even if she likes the kid from the Lu family, don't we stop them?
"You talk about me now, the marriage is your answer, I'm not satisfied! You asked me to do ideological work with Ayuan, don't you know what her temperament looks like?
The daughter's temper is the husband and wife who have joined hands to spoil like this, and when it comes to responsibility, no one can escape the dry cleaning, but now is not the time to be held accountable.
Either get the person back immediately, or find a way to solve the matter properly.
Xu Yi was choked by her words and didn't know how to react, and only snorted lightly after a long time, but in the end, he still took care of the overall situation, pulled down his face, and discussed it with his wife in a good voice.
"At this point, we must come up with a charter now, lest we offend the Gu family if we don't get married. ”
His words are good, the Gu family and his wife came early in the morning to help welcome the guests, obviously they attach importance to this family matter, if it is canceled now, not only will the Xu family lose face, but also lose the Gu family.
The couple was sighing across from each other, but a servant knocked at the door and came in.
At this moment, it was the time when the grass and trees were all soldiers, and they were afraid that it was the Gu family who came over, and when they found out about Xu Yuan's escape from marriage, there was nervousness in their eyes.
And yet—
"Sir, madam, Miss Ji is here. ”
The Xu family was in turmoil, this was a family ugly, according to the servant's thoughts, I thought that Xu Yi and his wife would inevitably cover up this matter and keep it secret.
But she forgot that Ji Ran was not an outsider to the Xu family.
On the contrary, when they heard the news of her coming, the husband and wife were all bright-eyed, as if they were in a desperate situation, and the willows were bright, so they were busy talking.
"Let her in!"
Ji Ran just entered the door, and saw that the atmosphere in the room was a little wrong, and a trace of doubt flashed in her heart, and after she looked around the whole room and didn't find her friend Xu Yuan, the doubts were even more imminent.
"Ayuan, she...... Have you already gone to the ballroom?"
Of course, she would not have thought that Xu Yuan, the innocent little girl living in the ivory tower, would make a move to escape from marriage.
Speaking of their daughter again, the expressions on the faces of the Xu family and his wife were still not very good, and after thinking about it a few times in his heart, Xu Yi first waved his hand to let all the servants in the lounge leave, and then took a step forward, as if he wanted to talk to Ji Ran for a long time.
Su Qingyu's sad appearance with her head down and wanting to cry made Ji Ran subconsciously want to comfort her, but after all, she stopped talking because she didn't know what was happening.
When there were only three of them in the lounge, Xu Yi took a deep breath and opened his mouth with a bit of hatred.
"Xiao Ran, Ayuan, she ran away, with Lu Yihui. ”
This news made Ji Ran startled, and his eyes widened subconsciously, and it took a long time before he said, "How come?"
Without waiting for Ji Ran to react, Su Qingyu took half a step forward, her body softened, and she knelt directly in front of her.
"Xiao Ran, please help the Xu family! You are a good boy, Ayuan ran away, but the news has already been released, this marriage can't be unengaged, the Xu family can't bear such consequences!"
This action caught her unexpectedly, and it was another rush, but her strength was not enough to compete with Su Qingyu's determination, so she had to be helpless to persuade.
"Aunt Su, you get up and talk first, how do you want me to help, let's discuss it first, right?"
didn't get Ji Ran's affirmative answer, Xu Yi sighed slightly, on the one hand, he felt that his request was too much, but on the other hand, he really couldn't afford the consequences of offending the Gu family, so he could only make this decision.
He didn't want people to think that their Xu family was embarrassed by a little girl, because he grabbed his wife's arm and helped her up from the ground with a slight force.
"Xiao Ran is right, for now, let's think about how to round out the engagement banquet. ”
Xu Yuan ran away, and the Xu family wanted to help themselves, Ji Ran understood what they meant after a little thought, and immediately lowered his eyelids and pondered.
Seeing that she didn't say anything for a long time, Su Qingyu was also a little anxious, and stepped forward to hold her hand, almost begging bitterly.
"Xiao Ran, how has Aunt Su treated you over the years, you know it in your heart, you and Ayuan grew up together, I also look at you like my own daughter, today's matter, our Xu family is sorry for you, but I really ask you, instead of Ayuan to finish this marriage!"
The Xu family does have great kindness to their family, and Su Qingyu hinted at this moment that although there was a suspicion of begging for retribution, Ji Ran had no reason to refuse.
She also had considerations in her heart, after all, it was Lu Yihui who took Xu Yuan away, no matter what, she agreed to the request of the Xu family and his wife, and she would not let her mother be implicated in this matter.
"I'm willing to help, but my mom is here today......"
It was already an unexpected joy for Xu Yi and his wife to be able to make Ji Ran nod, and they responded immediately.
"Don't worry, I'll explain her there. ”
Ji Ran gritted his teeth, but finally nodded.
Just then, the servant who was guarding outside knocked on the door.
"Sir, madam, the following notice is about to prepare for the opening. ”
Since he has become the protagonist from a guest, Ji Ran has to change his clothes and put on makeup or something, and when he saw the eyes of the Xu family and his wife looking at him, he waved his hand at them.
"You go first, I'll dress up and go down. ”
