Chapter 1 The Engagement Banquet

In front of the classical European dining table, Shen Zhiyue quietly ate the food on her plate, the crystal chandelier above the table emitted a soft light, creating a warm atmosphere, while her face with exquisite makeup was as numb and indifferent as ever.

The man sitting at the other end of the table picked up a napkin and wiped the corner of his lower lip, he raised his eyes and glanced at the woman opposite, and coldly ordered: "There is a banquet in the evening, you prepare it, and go with Qiu'er." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Qiu's fingers holding the silver tableware couldn't help but stiffen, and then followed his line of sight, looked at the woman who was still eating silently, and asked a little aggrievedly: "Is my sister unwilling to go with Qiu'er?"

On this side, Shen Zhiyue continued to eat as if he hadn't heard it, ignoring the two of them at all.

Seeing her like this, Jin Ruting slapped the table heavily and shouted angrily: "Don't you have long ears?!"

The red wine in the glass was shaken, Shen Zhiyue raised his head suddenly, looked at the cold-faced man opposite, a trace of confusion crossed his eyes, and asked as if he was puzzled, "What do you command?"

Jin Ruting's anger continued unabated, and his voice became more and more cold, "At seven o'clock in the evening, the car will come to pick you up, let Qiu'er teach you the rules, don't embarrass me at that time!" After that, he got up and strode out of the restaurant.

"Mother, Daddy is just so fierce. The little girl sitting on the side tugged at Xu Qiu's sleeve and pouted dissatisfiedly, "It's the eldest lady who upsets Daddy again, isn't it?" As she spoke, she glared back at Shen Zhiyue again.

Xu Qiu carefully helped her wipe the soup from the corner of her mouth, glanced at Shen Zhiyue again, and said proudly: "Xue'er is good, you can't make your father unhappy like some people, you know?"

The little girl nodded solemnly, pulled her mother up, and smiled crookedly, "Xue'er is full, let's go find Daddy." ”

After the two of them left, the restaurant finally quieted down, Shen Zhiyue rubbed her sore forehead a little tiredly, her heart was uncomfortable, but her face was still calm.

"Miss......" The maid Biqiao walked over and looked at her worriedly, "The banquet in the evening ......"

"It's okay, I can handle it. She said nonchalantly, glancing at the good-looking, but extremely unpalatable food on the plate, curling the corners of her lips self-deprecatingly, and not saying anything more.

In front of the dressing mirror, Shen Zhiyue was wearing a well-tailored aqua blue cheongsam, covered with a white fox fur shoulder, her hair was pulled up high, her makeup was exquisite, and her whole person looked dignified and elegant.

Xu Qiu leaned against the door, her face was full of disdain, and her lips hooked up a trace of ridicule, "Sister, no matter how beautiful she dresses up, it's in vain, Ruting still doesn't want to see you." ”

Shen Zhiyue didn't have any unhappiness on her face, she took the handbag handed by Biqiao, and glanced at the woman at the door lightly, "Let's go." With that, she walked past her and went straight out of the bedroom.

Xu Qiu glared at her back fiercely, and snorted coldly: "What are you pretending, I will look good with you later." ”

The two arrived outside the gate of the house accompanied by the maid, and the car had been waiting for a long time.

When the driver saw Xu Qiu coming, he hurriedly opened the car door and greeted her to get into the car courteously, but he was extremely cold to Shen Zhiyue, and there was even a trace of disdain in his eyes when he looked at her.

Seeing that even his subordinates were so squeezing out Shen Zhiyue, Xu Qiu became more and more proud, and sneered at her again, but she once again lost to this woman's strong forbearance, no matter how ugly the words were, she couldn't be stimulated in the slightest, this cheeky person was really thick enough, no wonder she would do such a shameful thing in the first place.

The car stopped in front of a magnificent western-style building, Shen Zhiyue got out of the car, looked at the three big characters "Du Mansion" on the door plate, only to feel a burst of blood and blood, and instantly understood the reason why the man had to attend her.

Jin Ruting's special car followed, and as soon as he got out of the car, Xu Qiu walked over, grabbed his arm affectionately, and took the initiative to stick to his body, smiling extremely gently, "I thought you were going to arrive later." ”

"Du Gongzi's engagement banquet, why is he so late. Jin Ruting took off his gloves and straightened his shawl for Xu Qiu very intimately, "It's windy outside, let's go in first." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man of the Du family had already personally greeted him.

After some greetings, Jin Ruting's slightly cool eyes glanced at Shen Zhiyue, and saw her standing there motionless, looking a little lonely.

He couldn't help but sneer in his heart, and strode into the Du Mansion with Xu Qiu in his arms.

Shen Zhiyue was slightly stunned, then stepped forward and politely called Master Du, "Uncle Du......"

Master Du was also stunned when he saw her, opened his mouth, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything in the end, just let his subordinates lead her to the banquet hall.

In the lavishly decorated banquet hall, the guests are full of guests, so it is not lively.

What everyone was talking about, Shen Zhiyue couldn't listen to it at all, her eyes were locked on the high-spirited and handsome figure not far away, only to see that the person's demeanor was elegant, and the transformation was mature and steady, and the beautiful woman beside him was like a pair of beautiful people, which was admirable.

It's been three years, thousands of days and nights, and it turns out that she is only one person who is suffering after all.

"Today, the dog returned from his studies and took over the business of the Du family, which was for one joy, and the Du and Yan families concluded the good relationship between Qin and Jin, which was for the second joy. At the same time, the Du family has been cared for by Mr. Jin in recent years, and Du hereby implores Mr. Jin to be a witness to the dog's marriage, and hopes that Mr. Jin will not refuse. ”

After Master Du gave a speech on the stage, everyone's eyes looked at Jin Ruting again, of course, including a gaze that was not unfamiliar to Shen Zhiyue, but made her a little flustered.

In the dodge, her hand was held by a strong and powerful hand, "Master Du is serious, thank you for not giving up, then let Jin and the insiders witness this beautiful moment together." ”

He pulled Shen Zhiyue step by step onto the stage, without giving her the slightest chance to refuse.

Shen Zhiyue lowered her head, bit her lower lip tightly and didn't speak, but Jin Ruting didn't let her go, and said ambiguously and cruelly in her ear: "Your old lover is getting engaged, don't you want to say something to him?"

Shen Zhiyue raised her head under his compulsion, and met Du Zixuan's suddenly cold gaze, this Zixuan was not the gentle and jade-like man she knew, she never even thought that one day, he would look at her with such indifferent and even disgusted eyes.

In the past three years, she has fantasized about countless scenarios of reuniting with him, but she did not expect to see him again, whether it would be at his engagement banquet or in such an awkward way.

She looked at him, tried to suppress the pain in her heart, barely pulled out a smile, and said word by word with great sincerity: "Congratulations, Du Gongzi." ”
