Chapter 22: The Banquet
Anyuan Group has recently made a big business, and at the celebration banquet tonight, Lu Yike brought He Wei over.
Before getting out of the car, He Wei learned that she was going to attend a banquet, but she was not happy, "Why should I attend such a banquet?" β
Lu Yike said: "If you can achieve the level of a waiter at the banquet, the training will be considered a success." β
He Wei lowered her head and thought about it.
I have to say that from the moment she entered the Champagne Restaurant, she felt like she had entered a new world. In her previous life, her family was ordinary, she was not favored at home, and she had not seen much of the world. The magnificence here is only seen in TV dramas.
Such an environment made her strange and unsettling, it was so unreal.
Thinking that she might have to deal with a group of well-dressed people with cloudy sideburns and fragrant clothes later, He Wei couldn't help but sweat her palms with nervousness. It's just that she was calm on her face and refused to let Lu Yike see it.
She still wants to hear the news in the future, how can she do this kind of psychological element?
He Wei took a deep breath and got out of the car.
Lu Yike raised his hand and motioned for He Wei to put his hand up.
He Wei glanced at Lu Yike, obviously resisting.
Lu Yike actually understood the meaning in He Wei's eyes, and raised his chin in the direction of the door. He Wei looked over and saw that the guests who came in and out, as long as they were men and women, their hands were all like that.
He Wei learned from them to put their hands together.
The jerky movements made Lu Yike smile.
It's like a rabbit with a prickly skin.
As soon as Lu Yike and He Wei entered the venue, they attracted a lot of attention, and someone immediately came up to greet them.
Those people were eager, and Lu Yike smiled at the corner of his mouth, and answered a few words from time to time. He Wei listened to it next to her, but felt that Lu Yike was not an unlearned person, but somewhat genuine.
Lu Yike said for a while, and let He Wei go play and eat something by herself.
Someone next to him complimented him for being considerate and considerate. But He Wei was not very happy. She didn't know much about Fang Xinghe's mission, and she wished she could hear more news. But seeing that the female companions around this group of people have left, she can't be too eye-catching, so she can only leave.
As for the new faces around Lu Yike, these people are very calm. When did Lu Dashao have a fixed female companion by his side, that was a novelty. Lu Yike didn't introduce him, so they didn't ask questions.
The women gathered in twos and threes to talk, He Wei didn't know any of them, she brought a plate to find food, and watched the manners of the waiters in the hall while eating.
Suddenly, she saw a woman in a small red off-the-shoulder dress talking to a waiter, and the two of them pointed in her direction.
After meeting her gaze, the woman glared at her.
He Wei immediately felt inexplicable.
How could she offend these people when she was a newcomer?
Although He Wei didn't understand much, she was secretly vigilant in her heart.
The waiter who came and went brought red wine and signaled to He Wei, He Wei thought of the woman just now, shook his head, and the waiter did not entangle, smiled and nodded, and bent down slightly.
He Wei was secretly wondering if she was too careful, who knew that suddenly there was an exclamation behind her, He Wei subconsciously hid to the side, and saw the waiter swaying, and the red wine tray in his hand was messy, and the burgundy liquid was spilled in the air. If he hadn't dodged just now, the red wine would definitely have spilled on He Wei.
Rao is like this, the waiter watched in surprise He Wei dodge, and then took the red wine glass in the tray and threw it directly on He Wei.
He Wei also dodged this blow, but when she was avoiding the waiter, she suddenly felt a chill in her back.
He Wei turned around and saw that it was the woman who was glaring at her just now.
This is in full view, how dare she?
Ye Junlan shook the goblet in her hand and said, "Ah, I'm sorry, my hand slipped." β
He Wei seemed to see two words on Ye Junlan's face at this moment, with "underwhelming" written on the left and "Come and beat me" on the right. β
He Wei tried her best to restrain herself from pouring red wine on Ye Junlan.
The characters who can appear here should not be simple, especially this young lady is so bold, and no one else dares to speak, which proves that she is not small.
She couldn't offend this person directly.
He Wei felt the torment she had never felt before.
Although the days of her previous life also depend on people's eyes, she can still maintain her dignity. When she is bullied, she can also leave categorically.
But now, she had to endure it.
Think about it, a child of a powerful family like Fang Xinghe can live so long disguised as a gangster in order to complete the task, so why can't she?
Today's enmity can't be concluded today, but when there is a knot, don't worry.
He Wei gave up arguing with Ye Junlan and went to Lu Yike with the red wine stain on her back.
She didn't expect Lu Yike to help her get ahead, but she had to at least change her clothes first. Since she is his dance partner, her rudeness will only affect his face.
He Wei wanted to calm things down, but Ye Junlan didn't give up, "You stop for me!" β
He Wei didn't hear it, walked faster and faster, and aimed at Lu Yike's position and walked straight.
Ye Junlan stepped on high heels, and her speed was not as fast as He Wei, who had added gold fingers to her physical fitness, and she was in a hurry to catch up with her, and almost hit her foot.
The voice at the banquet was noisy, and Lu Yike didn't hear He Wei's movement at all just now.
At this time, when he saw He Wei running over, he asked her what was wrong.
He Wei glanced at him nonchalantly, "I was splashed with red wine." β
Lu Yike's playboy expression was changed to Yan SΓΉ, and he asked, "Which one of you who doesn't have long eyes dares to touch you?" β
He Wei said: "If you know who will you give me anger?" Do you have any clothes for me to change? If not, I wouldn't have to stay here, would I? Today I have the etiquette of carefully watching the waiter, and you can accept the results. β
Lu Yike was very angry. He was not angry that He Wei was bullied, but that someone actually dared to bully his female companion, and it was completely a slap in the face.
Qi must come out. Otherwise, he, the eldest prince of the Lu family, would definitely become a laughing stock after tonight.
"Lu Yike!"
At this time, Ye Junlan walked over, panting, not because she was tired of walking, but mostly because she was angry.
Ye Junlan glared at He Wei fiercely, then raised her chin, described her coquettishness, and said to Lu Yike: "Lu Yike, is your taste just like this?" How can you bring such a person in who can't get on the stage? You'll have to give me an account. β
"Confess?" Lu Yike sneered, and poured the red wine in his hand on Ye Junlan, "Are you satisfied?" β
Ye Junlan avoided her, but at such a close distance, she couldn't escape, the red wine wet her dress, and it was a shame that she was wearing a red skirt, so it wasn't too ugly. Ye Junlan looked at Lu Yike in disbelief, "You bullied me like this for her?" β
Lu Yike said: "Don't put on a disgusted look that is disgusting. Don't say that you haven't entered the door of our Lu family yet, even if you marry Lu Yichi, you are only my cousin and daughter-in-law at best, why dare you say that you want to be my master? My people are also the ones you can bully? β
Ye Junlan pointed at Lu Yike: "Your people? Don't dream, Lu Shibo will never let you marry such a shameless woman. β
Lu Yike pulled He Wei and wanted to leave, "You don't have to worry about this." β
At this time, I suddenly heard someone speak: "Brother? Sister Junlan, what's wrong with you? β
The person who came was Lu Yirong. She is Lu Yichi's female companion today, and when she saw Lu Yichi going to greet someone, she chatted with her sisters. I faintly heard the sound of an argument in the corner, and although the people nearby did not get closer, their expressions were very strange, so they walked over curiously. Who knows, it was his own family who had the dispute.
After noticing Ye Junlan's clothes, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Sister Junlan, you hurry up and change your clothes, it's too ugly." β
For Lu Yirong, dressing up always comes first.
Ye Junlan was trembling with anger when she saw that she couldn't distinguish the point, but she finally came to support, and she couldn't help but be angry and said: "You persuade your brother, the woman next to him is not a good thing, but he is still protecting him like this, I think you will have a new sister-in-law soon." β
"Who are you talking about?" Lu Yirong looked at He Wei, "She? You're kidding, right? β
Lu Yirong didn't believe that her brother had a lot of romances, and she didn't believe that any woman could tie Lu Yike's heart.
Ye Junlan sneered, "Your brother said that I should not bully his people." β
Lu Yirong frowned: "Brother, how can you bully your own people for an outsider?" Who is this woman? Huh-why does it sound familiar? β¦ It's you! Why are you here? Elder brother! What about venting my anger when you say yes? You don't talk about it! β
Lu Yike had a big head when he saw Lu Yirong, and his temper couldn't be raised, but he couldn't let Lu Yirong mess around.
He stepped forward, hugged Lu Yirong's shoulder, and whispered, "What are you anxious about, the show is ahead." When did brother lie to you? β
"Then you bully Sister Junlan for her!"
"I just hate Ye Junlan, not for anyone. Well, only Rong Rong and Mom are worth my attention in this world. β
Lu Yirong was coaxed to be happy, but when she heard Lu Yike's disgust for Ye Junlan, she couldn't help but persuade, "Don't hate Sister Junlan, she is the wife of the second brother, if you don't give her face like this, the second brother will be embarrassed." β
"Little one has no conscience, I only remember your second brother, why don't you want to think that I am your own brother? His woman is angry with my people, and I can't fight back? β
"But if the second brother gets angry, the consequences will be very severe. What if this woman is a little angry? β¦ Brother, don't make the second brother angry! β
Lu Yike only felt a breath of air hit his head, he took a deep breath, and said: "Rong Rong, you must know that this family is our father's home, and I am my father's own son!" He's just an outsider in our house, so why should I let him? Why do you even want me to let him? β
"Brother, I didn't mean that, you don't have to let the second brother." Lu Yirong saw Lu Yike's anger and defended: "I just think that the second brother is very good to us, how good our family is and how harmonious..."
Lu Yike interrupted her: "I am not a family with him!" β
"Brother, why are you unreasonable!"
"Rong Rong!"
Lu Yirong turned her head and saw Lu Yichi, who was elegant and calm, and polite, and said in surprise: "Second brother, you are here, help me persuade my brother..."
"Hmph."
Lu Yike snorted coldly, and Lu Yirong stopped, pouting and sullen.
Lu Yichi chuckled lightly and said, "Rong Rong is so well-behaved, are you willing to lose your temper with her?" β
Lu Yirong got support and snorted, her voice louder than Lu Yike just now.
Lu Yichi touched Lu Yirong's head and said, "Dad is very unhappy, let me come over to see the situation." β
His eyes swept nonchalantly.
Ye Junlan shuddered unexpectedly, resisted the urge to retreat, bit her lip and lowered her head.
Lu Yike said: "Take care of your fiancΓ©e, don't let her come out disgusting." β
Lu Yichi didn't care about Lu Yike's provocation, and said with a smile: "Brother, Lan'er did something wrong, I apologize to you on her behalf." It's just that it's better to say it in private. β
Lu Yirong nodded, "That's it!" Second brother, that's what I just said. And the family and everything is prosperous, so you can't quarrel outside. β
"Rong Rong is very sensible." Lu Yichi praised her, and said to Lu Yike: "Dad asked me to ask you, he wants you to recognize a few people, will you go?" β
Lu Yike said coldly: "Don't go." β
Lu Yike was leaving, He Wei had no reason to stay, and she was afraid that Ye Junlan would find trouble again, so she had to rest and listen to the news and followed.
Later, Lu Yirong shouted a few times, but Lu Yike ignored it.
"Rong Rong, don't be upset. I saw Pauline also coming, she was not in good health, and it was rare to attend the banquet, didn't you always hope that she would come out to play more? Let's just go talk to her. When Lu Yirong heard that the good sister was coming, she forgot what had just happened and left on her high heels.
At this time, only Ye Junlan and Lu Yichi remained.
Ye Junlan said in a low voice: "Ah Chi." β
"I'll look for you in the evening."
Ye Junlan suddenly shuddered. Her eyes were filled with horror and anticipation.
Lu Yichi smiled, straightened his clothes, and left in a graceful manner.
