Chapter 3: Birthday Dinner
Yuan's villa
After checking the invitation card into the banquet hall, there is no vulgar gold in the hall, but low-key luxury European style, the ceiling is a light blue sky image reflection, with a light blue crystal chandelier, the white European wall and the layout of the venue echo each other, perfectly showing the high taste of the protagonist, the guests in the hall are like clouds, and the figure of the waiter shuttles through it to greet each other.
Mrs. Yuan's elegant smile couldn't hide the happiness, Uncle Yuan, who was standing next to Mrs. Yuan, who doted on Mrs. Yuan, the sudden uproar in the venue, Zhang Yanran's arrival attracted the attention of many people, she walked towards Mrs. Yuan unhurriedly, and a sneering voice of men and women sounded in her ears.
"Look, isn't this the daughter of the Zhang family, and what qualifications does she have to come on this occasion?"
"Don't look like that, that woman has a lot of means, and the man next to her said that he was a secretary, and I don't know if it has anything to do with it. ”
"Zhang's has a shareholder meeting today, do you know what she does to President Li?"
"Say tell him to get out of here.."
"The men around me are constant, who doesn't know that she is a courtesan?"
"Isn't it? I still want to enter the door of the Yuan family, and I am not afraid of dirty thresholds. ”
"She's a nemesis, and she's killed her mother. ”
Chen Yu, who was beside him, shook Yanran's hand nervously and looked at her worriedly, "Yanran, don't care what they say." ”
Zhang Yanran has long been accustomed to these gossips, and smiled indifferently, as if she really didn't take it to heart: "They didn't say anything wrong, these are all facts." ”
After speaking, he immediately let go of Chen Yu's hand, walked over and took Mrs. Yuan's hand and took out the gift, showing an affectionate smile: "Aunt Yuan, happy birthday, this is a gift prepared for you by Yanran, I hope Aunt Yuan will like it." ”
"Xiao Ran, whatever you prepare for your aunt, your aunt likes it. Mrs. Yuan accepted the gift with a smile, Yang Qingqin's daughter became more and more proficient in life, which made people feel more and more distressed.
Mrs. Yuan immediately remembered something, and said to Zhang Yanran with warm anger: "Today at the shareholders' meeting, I heard your Uncle Yuan talk about the situation at that time, you must not show weakness when you should be strong, and if you don't take the initiative to suppress these old fritters, they will climb on your head!"
"Aunt Yuan, the way you look now, you don't have a bit of elegant ladylike style!" Zhang Yanran showed a hint of playfulness, without any sense of alienation.
Mrs. Yuan knew that it was a joke, and she didn't care about her, her eyes were always full of distress: "You, if you really can't hold on, don't force it, you have to ask Uncle Yuan and me for help, do you know?"
"Yes, then I won't bother you with your uncle's affection, Brother Chenxu comes back today, I'll go say hello." The corner of her mouth glanced at Uncle Yuan with a chuckle, and then hurried away, she was very afraid of other people's distressed eyes, for fear that others would sympathize with her, just like admitting that she was incompetent!
"You girl, make fun of your uncle. Uncle Yuan looked at her with helpless eyes and scolded with a smile, looking at her back, there was endless melancholy in his eyes.
She put away her playful appearance, her eyes swept over the crowd of the banquet, and saw that Chen Yu not far away was dealing with some business people, she turned to step on the spiral staircase, walked to the door of the third room on the right hand and knocked on the door, knock, this is the code between her and him!
"Yanran. A familiar voice sounded in front of him with the sound of the door opening, and he shouted happily.
Zhang Yanran looked at the man who opened the door in front of her, and naturally grabbed his arm and walked inside: "Yuan Chenxu, why did you come back?"
Yuan Chenxu raised his eyebrows and smiled meaninglessly: "I arrived last night, I want to surprise you." ”
"Okay, your guts..." Zhang Yanran was interrupted by a cough before she could finish speaking, but in a blink of an eye, she found that there was not only someone on the sofa, but a familiar figure was sitting, but she didn't look at her.
It's her, they had met at the airport, Yuan Feng put down the wine and looked at her, and said to Yuan Chenxu, "Brother, don't you want to introduce me?"
"Yuan Feng, my younger brother, has just returned from abroad, and the heir of the YF Group, Yan Yiling, is Yuan Feng's direct boss. Yuan Chenxu glanced at Yuan Feng, and introduced the two people in the room, in fact, they had already known each other before this, and now it was just a scene.
Yuan Chenxu pushed Zhang Yanran in front of them, overflowing with a smile: "This is Zhang Yanran, I... Girlfriend. ”
"Brother, when did you get your girlfriend? Why don't I know?" Yuan Feng, who looked surprised, pointed at Zhang Yanran, and it was still a woman that Yan Yiling had been thinking about for five years?
"Hmm!" Zhang Yanran nodded indifferently to greet politely, without explanation, first, it was unnecessary, and second, even she didn't know what the situation was.
Yuan Chenxu raised his hand and gently put the hair in her ear behind her ear, approached her and whispered: "You have to get used to this identity, understand?"
Zhang Yanran suddenly understood his intentions, but she didn't think it was necessary, but she still nodded lightly and cooperated, "Okay." ”
"Hmm!" Yuan Chenxu stared at her and smiled softly!
Yan Yiling, who had been silent, looked at the two people who were whispering with sharp eyes, and let out a sneer: "The daughter of the Zhang Group, not bad." ”
Zhang Yanran was polite and detached, and said softly: "Can you please ask the two of you to go out first?" I haven't seen Brother Chenxu for a long time, and I need space to keep warm." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present found that an unknown breath kept pressing down, Yan Yiling got up suddenly, and his sexy lips evoked a strange smile, giving people a dangerous chill: "Let's go, don't hinder people's "warmth". ”
Yuan Feng vaguely felt that a catastrophe was coming soon, and strode up to follow them, giving them "Make room." 》
Zhang Yanran sat down in the soft leather sofa and raised her eyebrows, "This is your surprise to me?"
"I didn't expect you to meet you. Yuan Chenxu spread out his hands to show that it didn't matter to him, besides, he was also very innocent, right?
Zhang Yanran didn't break it, but smiled, looking at him with a smile in her eyes: "What about Mu Yan?"
"You don't care about me, so you asked Mu Yan. Yuan Chenxu pretended to be disappointed, but with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he took out a black box from his pocket and handed it to her.
Zhang Yanran, who took the box, quipped: "Proposed so soon?"
Open the box, a mysterious light, the characteristics of the creation of it expensive, through the hands of the world's famous CK, carved into a black diamond ring with a hundred faceted cutting process, it seems to hide a story, a symbol of identity, and this ring Mu family has long been passed on to Mu Yan, and now it is lying quietly in the box.
Zhang Yanran looked at the ring and was silent for a long time, as if she had suddenly woken up, the chill in her eyes deepened, and she held the box tightly in her hand: "I want Mu Yan to come back alive!"
Yuan Chenxu already knew that she would say this, and replied in a low voice: "He will definitely come back alive, don't worry!"
Yuan Chenxu's words seemed to be comforting her, as if he was also saying it to himself, now in addition to taking care of Zhang Yanran, he is waiting.
"Sometimes it's a woman's right to show weakness appropriately, don't be too strong, come to me if you have anything, I can help you. Yuan Chenxu learned about her experience from Mu Yan, and inevitably wanted to help her, not to mention the person who his brother wanted to protect?
"Everyone is responsible for their own actions, I am only responsible for my own actions, that's all" His words warmed her heart, and Zhang Yanran understood the meaning of his words.
Yuan Chenxu gently patted her shoulder: "Don't be too embarrassed yourself." ”
Zhang Yanran chuckled, got up under his sight and picked up a crystal glass, poured himself a glass of red wine, closed his eyes and enjoyed the mellow aroma of red wine, gently swayed the red wine in the cup, took a sip, and the mellow aroma of wine collided in the mouth: "The taste is good... Do you know? Life is like red wine in a cup, it needs to be fermented to be mellow, if I was a grape back then, then now I have begun to have the aroma of wine, you should feel happy!"
Yuan Chenxu understood what she meant, no longer persuaded him, got up and left a back, raised his right hand and waved it back and walked outside, and a sigh faded away: "It seems that Mu Yan is going to be sad." ”
After Yuan Chenxu went down, Zhang Yanran put down the wine glass and went to the balcony alone to lean lightly on the edge of the barricade, the surroundings were quiet, she looked up at the night sky full of stars in the dark night, looked at the distance and was a little distracted, and the next second she was surrounded by a warm embrace, Yan Yiling leaned her head on her slender shoulder, and said coldly, "Are you so eager to leave me?"
