CHAPTER XVI
Gu Lan put the remaining half of the glass of wine on the coffee table, looked up at Gu Xinran and said, "I can't sit anyway, why don't you ask Miss Gu to help me get a new glass of wine?" ”
Lin Xueyao glanced at Gu Xinran gently, and said, "In that case, please Miss Gu help me bring me a glass of juice, I don't want the wine, I drank a little too much tonight, and I was a little dizzy." ”
As soon as she heard that Lin Xueyao was dizzy, Gu Lan immediately turned her head and asked a little nervously, "Sister Xueyao, it doesn't matter, do you need to take a break?"
Rong Fei also shook Lin Xueyao's hand and said, "Yes, Sister Xueyao, why don't you go to my room to rest for a while?" ”
Lin Xueyao shook her head and said, "Don't worry, it's out of the way." After speaking, he glanced at Gu Xinran, who was standing still, Gu Lan also turned his head, frowned, and said, "What are you still standing for?"
Gu Xinran was a little helpless, bit her mouth and turned around and walked towards the dining table, she figured it out, these people called her here just to humiliate her and see her ugly, fortunately, she is used to these things, and it will always pass if she endures it.
I came back with a glass of red wine and juice, and before I got closer, I heard laughter from the other side, "Did you see her like that just now, she is like a goose when she doesn't move!"
"Isn't it? I don't have any temperament on my body, and I can't hide the rustic atmosphere even if I wear a dress!"
"Old Man Rong doesn't know what to think, although the eldest young master has an accident, he can't be so casual, right? I really feel sorry for the eldest young master, what kind of beauty does he want, but he wants to marry such a woman who has nothing. ”
"But isn't it, I see, that is, the eldest young master's body has not healed yet, and when her body is better, she is afraid that she will be swept away!"
During this period of time, Gu Xinran has heard the most words that he is dirty and poor, not good-looking, has no temperament, and is not worthy of Rong Ze...... She was about to recite these words backwards, she really didn't understand these people, obviously the Rong family needed a "nanny" like her who had no background and worked hard, and was worried that Rong Ze would not find a wife in the future, so she found her, as if she was begging for nothing by herself, if she had a choice, she wouldn't want to come to this kind of place!
But there is also a benefit to listening to these words too much, that is, it makes people's hearts stop at all, there is no fluctuation, anyway, there are more lice and it is not itchy, whether she cares about it or not, these people always want to say these words, since they love to say it, then let them say it, anyway, no matter how much they say, it will have no impact on the established facts, and she is still the young lady of the Rong family in their mouths after all.
Although in the Rong family, not many people take her seriously as a person.
Gu Lan saw her coming over, glanced at everyone, and then temporarily stopped sneering at Gu Xinran, Gu Xinran pretended that she didn't hear anything, reached out and handed the wine to Gu Lan, and then walked to Lin Xueyao's side, wanting to hand her the watermelon juice, but only took a step, she felt tripped over something, Gu Xinran screamed in horror, "Ah-" , The whole person rushed forward uncontrollably, just as Lin Xueyao was sitting opposite her, Gu Xinran pounced, poured the whole glass of juice onto Lin Xueyao, and also overturned the plate on the edge of the coffee table, and a bunch of cakes and snacks fell on her in a hurry, making her stained with cream, and her knees also hit the edge of the coffee table heavily, so painful that she couldn't help but scream.
The people next to her screamed and dispersed, Rong Fei was busy wiping the juice on Lin Xueyao's face with a tissue, Lin Xueyao's face at this time was simply terrifying, she wore a pure white slim dress tonight, which was originally a little transparent, faintly showing off her beautiful figure, drenched by watermelon juice, from the chest to the thighs, it was all mottled red, especially the one on the chest, which made her whole person look embarrassed.
Lin Xueyao got up and walked to Gu Xinran's side, and said through gritted teeth, "Did you mean it!"
Gu Xinran's face turned pale miserably, she struggled for a long time before she sat up, covering her knees so painfully that she couldn't speak, her head was covered with white cream, she looked up at Lin Xueyao, and shook her head with some difficulty, "No, I didn't mean to......"
"Isn't it?" Lin Xueyao was almost mad, "Didn't you throw yourself on me on purpose? Are you satisfied with making me like this now?"
Rong Fei wiped Lin Xueyao with a tissue, and said, "Sister Xueyao, don't pay attention to her, go to my room to take a shower and change your clothes, right?"
Lin Xueyao shook off Rong Fei's hand, pointed at Gu Xinran and said, "Don't think that you can get away with pretending to be weak like this, you have to give me an explanation for this matter tonight!"
Gu Xinran looked at her blankly and helplessly, "Explain, what do you want me to do?" Looking at the group of people around him who were holding their arms and watching coldly, Gu Xinran opened his mouth and said, "I really didn't mean to, when I walked over just now, I tripped over something, I ...... I can't stand on my feet......"
It's a pity that no one wants to listen to her explanation, and no one cares about the truth of the matter, they only care about what they see, these people are either watching a good show, or they want to ask Lin Xueyao to get angry, looking at Gu Xinran's eyes, they are naked disdain and distrust.
Gu Xinran thought helplessly, obviously she was also injured, and she was also embarrassed, why didn't anyone want to care about her?
The movement here is a bit big, attracting everyone's attention, except for a few people who left early, almost everyone came to this corner, Rong Cheng is no exception, everyone saw him coming, they all consciously gave way out, after all, this happened in the territory of the Rong family, there must be someone from the Rong family to deal with it, and the others said that it was just to watch the excitement.
Although Rong Cheng had long expected that these women would do something, he didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion, and when he got closer, he saw the mess all over the ground, and Gu Xinran sitting on the ground with her head down, she hugged her knees with her hands, it was a lonely and helpless posture, like a rabbit surrounded by jackals, she hugged herself tremblingly, and couldn't find any way out of the predicament.
"What's going on?" Rong Cheng glanced at Rong Fei, who was standing closer, "What kind of occasion is it today? As the young lady of the Rong family, you don't help take care of the guests, and you still make such a thing, like words?"
His frowning appearance looked very scary, Rong Fei just wanted to say that it was all a good thing that Gu Xinran did, but as soon as he came into contact with Rong Cheng's eyes, he was so frightened that he immediately withdrew the hand that helped Lin Xueyao wipe his body, and stood aside speechless.
"The second brother doesn't even know what happened, just as if this incident was caused by Xiaofei, isn't it appropriate?" Rong Yi walked to Rong Cheng's side and looked at him with a calm face, "This looks like the sister-in-law accidentally spilled juice on Miss Lin, the second brother wants to investigate, and the sister-in-law should also be held accountable, right? Why is Xiaofei blamed?"
Rong Cheng glanced at him and said, "Oh? So that's the case, but I clearly remember that my sister-in-law was sitting there eating just now, why did she suddenly run here, and she offended the guests, I don't know who called her over, do you want to tell grandpa about this?"
Rong Yi's face was a little difficult to look at, glared at Rong Fei, and said, "No matter what, it's always the sister-in-law who is careless, just let her apologize to Miss Lin, such a trivial matter, why should you alarm grandpa?"
When Lin Xueyao saw Rong Cheng coming over, she put away the anger on her face, and said weakly with red eyes: "No...... It's okay, my cousin-in-law is also careless. ”
Rong Cheng looked coldly at Lin Xueyao, who was a little aggrieved, and said, "Miss Lin's clothes are dirty, take her to change it." Reaching out and untying off his coat, he stepped forward to put it on Gu Xinran, picked her up from the ground, and said, "Miss Lin is so understanding, so there must be no need to apologize, right?"
After speaking, he didn't care about Lin Xueyao's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, nodded to everyone and said, "It's really embarrassing for this to happen, everyone, please continue." After speaking, he hugged Gu Xinran and walked upstairs.
Lin Xueyao was left in place with an ugly face, she has never lost such a person since she was sensible, and she has never been ignored like this, tonight because of Gu Xinran, she has tasted it, such a shameful humiliation, she will one day double it!
Gu Xinran hid in Rong Cheng's arms, one hand tightly grasped the clothes on his chest, and after a while, Rong Cheng felt that the clothes on his chest were wet, his steps paused, looked at Gu Xinran, who was trembling, and couldn't help but want to sigh.
In the final analysis, she will be treated like this tonight, and it has something to do with his permissiveness, although he doesn't feel that he has anything wrong, there is a saying, others help you with affection, and it is your duty not to help, he just does things according to his own duty.
"I really didn't mean to. Gu Xinran's small voice came from his chest, "I don't know why I fell, but I really didn't mean to, my feet hurt a lot......"
Rong Cheng hugged Gu Xinran's hand tightly and said, "I know." ”
At this moment, Gu Xinran's heart was completely put down, she sniffed, looked up cautiously, looked at Rong Cheng's resolute chin, and whispered, "I'm sorry, I'm causing you trouble again...... I was so careless......"
Rong Cheng didn't answer, walked to the third floor, and asked her, "Do you want to go back to Rong Ze's room?"
Gu Xinran bit her lip and begged, "Can you not go back?"
As soon as she thought that she would have to face Rong Ze's moodiness after she went back, Gu Xinran felt very tired, and the only sympathy she had for Rong Ze was gradually disappearing in the torture day after day.
Rong Cheng thought about it, turned around and took her to the fourth floor, after he came back, in order to show the importance of him, Old Man Rong divided the entire fourth floor into his space, and usually except for him and the housekeeper, no one else almost never went up.
