36 Banquet 1

Organized by the Zhai family, the annual dinner came as scheduled this year.

As Zhai Xu said before, it was originally just a small gathering of the Zhai family, but later it became more and more complicated, and the banquet became more and more commercial from a family banquet. Up to now, it has almost become one of the routine gatherings of the business community in a certain circle in City B.

In fact, Zhai Xu was a perennial jet lag party in the early years, and there was a blank period of many years in the middle. When I returned to China to catch up with the party last year, I went to the platform obediently out of respect for the old man. As a result, only this time, Zhai Xu slipped away halfway, and since then he has not been sensitive to similar dinners.

And this year's dinner seems to be extraordinarily grand, there is news that Zhai Xu's parents who have been away all the year round have returned to China together, and Zhai Xu, who finally hid in the ravine in the suburbs under the pretext of being picked out by the old man of the Zhai family. Many people who originally only planned to show up and make a name for themselves are also excited and ready to find an opportunity to meet the current ruler of the Zhai family, the future heir.

Xue Ting still has neat short hair with highlights, with a burgundy floor-length skirt, and her figure is tall and graceful, which adds a bit of โ–กโ–ก. Holding a champagne glass in one hand, Xue Ting was like the center of a small circle here, surrounded by several girls.

"Do you think Zhai Xu will come this year?" One of the petite girls in the water blue skirt sighed regretfully, "I also said that it was hard to wait until Zhai Xu was stationed in China, and I would see more in the future?" Who knew that Zhai Shao would show up even less. โ€

Another round girl next to her, who was a little older, smiled: "Fool, why are you still thinking about Zhai Shao." You see that Sister Tingting is looking for a new love, so you are still stupid, thinking about Zhai Shao. โ€

"I didn't think about Zhai Shao, I just wanted to see Zhai Shao's female companion. Oh, Sister Tingting, you still haven't taught her a lesson, look at how she talks! The girl in the blue skirt picked Xue Ting and pointed at the other girl with a smile.

Xue Ting really looked like a lady at this time, with a light smile on her face, and she didn't care about them like these little girls, and said: "I'm looking for a new love, you should hurry up, you are still young, and find a wishful husband." It's not my sister, I'm discouraged for you, Zhai Xu, this crooked neck tree, give up as soon as possible. โ€

"Where are we comparable to Sister Tingting, there is such a great man as Brother Bin to chase after us." The round-faced girl held her fleshy face full of envy, and suddenly lowered her voice mysteriously and said, "Hey, but have you heard? It is said that Sister Yaxin came back a few days ago, and she may be coming today. โ€

Xue Ting, who had just shown a happy smile on her face when she heard others mention Zhang Wenbin, changed her face when she heard Sister Yaxin's name, and asked with her eyebrows twisted: "You said Chen Yaxin?" Didn't you say that she didn't come back after emigrating? โ€

The round-faced girl nodded and said, "Yes, that's what everyone said originally, but I don't know why I came back again." โ€

Xue Ting looked unhappy, and whispered to herself: "It's right that Zhai Xu didn't come to see it. โ€

Le Xiaoxiao held Zhai Xu's arm, and his hand grasped it so tightly that he almost clutched Zhai Xu's cuffs into a rag. Zhai Xu patted the white and tender little hand in the crook of his arm, forcefully broke away the tightly clenched onion white fingers, and gently brushed the back of his hand over and over again, so that the palm finally rested on his arm easily.

Then Le Xiaoxiao's nerves relaxed, adjusted his breathing, and turned his head sideways to Zhai Xu with a light smile.

After being stunned for a moment, Zhai Xu smiled and said, "You are very beautiful today." โ€

Le Xiaoxiao gave him a confident smile back.

Zhai Xu's uprightness is as usual, and he is really beautiful today.

Le Xiaoxiao's originally excessively soft eyebrows and eyes were outlined in a dignified and elegant manner. The hair that was originally like a clear soup and noodles was trimmed out of layers and permed out some lazy arcs on the back of the head, leaving only a few strands of forehead hair on the cheeks at will. Although it makes her age look slightly older than she actually is, the added mature charm highlights the bookish fragrance that she can't hide in her bones. The deepened facial contours made Le Xiaoxiao instantly get rid of the transparent faces of passers-by and become among the beauties at first sight.

Le Xiaoxiao saw the mirror pushed by Miya for the first time, and she almost didn't recognize herself. It's still the same face, and it's obviously not a lot of makeup, but it seems like the whole person has been reborn.

Le Xiaoxiao said seriously to Miya: I guess I will never fan the face of an idol star again in this life. It made Miya laugh and said that this was the best compliment she had ever received.

Although appearance is not everything, I have to say that with this face that made Zhai Xu stunned for a few seconds when he saw it for the first time, Le Xiaoxiao felt unprecedented confidence when standing beside Zhai Xu.

As soon as he walked into the hall, almost every man and woman he met would come over to say hello to Zhai Xu. Although Zhai Xu had a smile on his face, Le Xiaoxiao could see the difference between this formulaic smile and the usual idle attitude of lazy retired old cadres.

However, at this time, Le Xiaoxiao was also unable to protect himself, except for patting Zhai Xu's arm gently and giving him spiritual support, he couldn't do anything else. The various gazes that converged on her were no less than Zhai Xu's. There is curiosity, there is surprise, there is jealousy, there is envy. Le Xiaoxiao could no longer tell whether the face passing by him was kind or malicious. A bit like Alice falling down the rabbit hole, Le Xiaoxiao sighed secretly.

"Oh, I said earlier that Zhai Shao is here, and it is said that Zhai Shao has brought a female companion!" The girl in the blue skirt squeezed to Xue Ting's side from the outside like a flower butterfly, "It seems that no one knows her, Sister Tingting, do you know who it is?" โ€

"Female companion?" Xue Ting repeated, and Le Xiaoxiao's little face of clear water couldn't help but appear in her mind, and she couldn't help but look right. If Zhai Xu is really brought as a female companion, it seems that these two people are real. Xue Ting felt that she had almost become a mother's mentality when she watched Zhai Xu find a girlfriend now, and she didn't know if it was because of her emotional adjustment too quickly, or because of the inexplicable hormone instability caused by the engagement and the explosion of maternal love.

Chen Yaxin!

Out of the corner of her eye, Xue Ting keenly caught the corner of a red and glamorous skirt, and quickly moved towards the door.

Stuffing the champagne glass in her hand into the hand of the waiter next to her, Xue Ting picked up the corner of her skirt and rushed in the same direction, on the lower limit of maintaining elegance, and rushed over as fast as possible.

When Xue Ting tried to separate the crowd and came to the center where everyone's eyes converged, she happened to see Zhai Xu holding her female companion and catching Chen Yaxin who flew over with a surprised face. was hit by the momentum and had to let go of his female companion's hand, Zhai Xu took two steps back before barely hugging the girl who rushed over, and then quickly took two steps back, raised his eyes to look at the other party, and said in a surprised tone: "Yaxin? How did you end up here? โ€

Chen Yaxin saw Zhai Xu take two steps back, and chased after him without thinking, and wanted to hug Zhai Xu's arm. Zhai Xu took another step to the side.

Chen Yaxin saw Zhai Xu dodging and hiding, stood pitifully and raised her head, flattened her mouth aggrievedly, and complained: "Zhai Xu, I'm back, you are not enthusiastic about others at all~"

Complaining didn't seem to be enough, Chen Yaxin lowered her head and counted her fingers one by one: "My flight back to China has been announced to the world, and you didn't come to pick me up." I've been back home for so many days, and you didn't say to come and see me. Now that I'm here, you're still hiding from me! What do you mean? โ€

Zhai Xu seemed to have recovered from his initial surprise, nodded and smiled, "Long time no see." I'm sorry I didn't hear from you about your return home. โ€

Chen Yaxin twisted her eyebrows again when she heard this, and said, "How can it be, it must be that you didn't pay attention to my news." Forget it, forget it, we meet again today after a long absence, so happy, I won't bother with you. There will be a long time to come. โ€

"Well, Yahin, it's a pleasure to meet you. I still haven't said hello to a lot of people, so you can play first, and I'll see you later. Zhai Xu nodded, turned around and took Le Xiaoxiao's hand, and was about to leave in the other direction.

As if a red cloud was drifting by, Chen Yaxin almost ran in front of Zhai Xu and Le Xiaoxiao, blocked the way, crossed her waist up and down and stared at Le Xiaoxiao carefully three times, and asked, "Are you Zhai Xu's female companion today?" Hired temporarily? โ€

Le Xiaoxiao couldn't cry or laugh, this Chen Yaxin, looking at Jiao Didi, was a very beautiful little girl, her temper was really arrogant, and her words were not inferior, I really don't know how she was spoiled like this.

Xue Ting's gaze fell back on Le Xiaoxiao. I paid attention to Chen Yaxin just now, and I didn't look at this girl very carefully, at this glance, beauty is secondary, and her temperament is really special. There is a kind of gentleness that is rarely seen now. If you look closely, it seems a little familiar......

Without waiting for Le Xiaoxiao to answer, Zhai Xu took Le Xiaoxiao into his arms with his hand, wrapped Le Xiaoxiao's waist with one hand, and said to Chen Yaxin with a smile: "I don't care about the introduction, this is Le Xiaoxiao, my girlfriend." Xiaoxiao: This is Chen Yaxin, my classmate when I was in school in the United States. โ€

Yes! Xue Ting finally remembered, oops, isn't this Xiaoxiao, I met once with Ah Xuan's barbecue, and I only glanced at Bai Ying's party yesterday, so I didn't pay much attention to her being really with Zhai Xu. It's just that I only remembered this girl's small face when I was barbecuing, and I didn't expect to be so good-looking. But Zhai Xu is too inauthentic, and he didn't say a word about such a big thing.

Compared with Xue Ting, who has a two-sided relationship with Le Xiaoxiao, in the eyes of other onlookers, Le Xiaoxiao is completely a girlfriend who fell from the sky. No one knew who this person was. Even if she followed Zhai Xu to attend today, most of the people thought that she was a friend or acquaintance of any family. It is not the first time that Zhai Xu has attended a banquet with a woman with a strange relationship, although Xue Ting has been shot the most times, what other cousins and cousins, relatives of seven aunts and eight aunts, and daughters of partners. What kind of female companion Zhai Xu brings has even become a woman's betting target or a hint for a man trying to find business opportunities.

Chen Yaxin's vivid little face instantly stiffened, and she squeezed out an ugly smile in embarrassment, her watery eyes looked directly at Zhai Xu, and asked in a trembling voice, "Zhai Xu, did you lie to me?" You still blame me, don't you want me to pester you? โ€

Zhai Xu's demeanor was calm, he smiled slightly, walked forward with Le Xiaoxiao in his arms, and when he passed Chen Yaxin, he whispered: "Gro up, girl. e ere done.โ€

Le Xiaoxiao could see that this girl had a great relationship with Zhai Xu, but at this time, since Zhai Xu only said that Chen Yaxin was a classmate, she didn't want to say anything, so she nodded politely at Chen Yaxin and said Nice to see you.

The two passed by Chen Yaxin's back hand in hand, which stimulated her nerves too much, Chen Yaxin sniffled and said, "Zhai Xu, stop it, are you done with it?" I'm not done yet! โ€
