Section 188 Gatherings

As Dongfang Wan said before, this party is purely participated by young people, it is a fairly relaxed and free assembly, there is a buffet in the courtyard on the seaside side, there is a barbecue, there is a dance floor in the living room, there is a pool table in the courtyard on the side, there are computers, video games, poker and even a lot of toys for minors in the entertainment room of the villa, most of the participants are young people with a certain family background, some are still in school, and some have entered large companies to work. Those who know each other greet each other, and those who don't know each other are also introduced by others or come forward to talk to each other. In addition to finding suitable different surnames, the theme of the meeting is probably to establish different relationships and pave the way for each other's future.

After greeting the host's family and introducing each other, followed by a polite conversation with Lei Qing, Jiaming's task was basically completed. It can be seen that Lei Qing's gaze at Jiaming contains an incomparably powerful hatred - after all, Jiaming's casual prank in the cafΓ© yesterday made Lei Qing really embarrassed, his head was hit on the table, and coffee, sugar, ice cream and other things were painted all over his face, but it happened that he wanted to embarrass Jiaming first, and he was also a little weak in his heart - maybe this is also the reason why Dongfang Wan caught him over as a shield, in her eyes, Jiaming has always been dull to burst, and he will not deliberately stammer or give face to anyone, if it is someone else, I'm afraid that he has already been defeated in Lei Qing's gaze offensive, after all, Lei Qing is not just a useless second ancestor, he also has an incomparably strong family strength behind him.

Probably got Lei Qing, Dongfang Wan parted ways with Jia Ming, looking for people in the crowd who might be helpful to his toy factory, and then looking for someone to introduce, Jia Ming walked around, but there were also one or two cousins of the Huang family who knew him to say hello, but for this cousin who was a little withdrawn, they didn't seem to have much idea of communication.

All the way back to the courtyard by the sea, the light has fallen, leaving only the last trace of red in the western sky, the lights in the entire villa are lit, the grass with the long buffet table and barbecue grill is brightly lit, the slightly salty sea breeze brings a cool atmosphere, Yahan is standing on a barbecue grill to sprinkle pepper on a chicken wing, and the man who came with her is talking to her side. While having a somewhat miserable barbecue, Yahan looked around absentmindedly, and when he saw Jiaming's figure, he turned his head and focused on the chicken wings that were already half-burned, talking to the man next to him.

After blowing the wind on the verandah for a while, listening to the music coming from the room, Jiaming took two strings of fish and meat slices, set up a charcoal fire on an empty barbecue grill next to him, and barbecued it skillfully.

Since I understood Yahan's thoughts, my friendship with her has come to an end, if you can't become a lover, it is undoubtedly a naΓ―ve idea to become a friend, seeing that she already has her own life, Jiaming doesn't want to disturb too much, just occasionally sweep his eyes, and the scene of Yahan, who has finished grilling, is nesting in the corner and gnawing on chicken wings always makes him feel a little funny, and sometimes someone comes to greet her or the man next to her, there are men and women, talking and laughing. When his eyes swept over the living room inside, he could still see Dongfang Wan talking and laughing with some people, and Dongfang Lu had already come, chatting with Yi Huaying and others as the host.

After the barbecue, Dongfang Wan, who was holding a glass of water, also came over and made an OK gesture to him excitedly: "Great, I met several people again, well, there is a family with a chain of supermarkets all over the country, I mentioned our toy factory to him, and he said that he would be happy to come over and have a look in two days, haha...... You baked it, it's so fragrant, I'm so hungry......" he said, unceremoniously snatching half of the food from Jiaming's hand, munching on it in a big gulp, and then showing a surprised look.

"Hey, how did you bake it so well? A guy just gave me a skewer of beef...... Eat until I want to die......"

"I'm not interested in doing big things, I just like these small things."

"If you can't do great things in the future, I'll invite you to my house as a cook!" Dongfang Wan said generously, Jia Ming smiled, picked up a string of fish, two skewers of mutton, and a corn and threw them back on the barbecue grill, and waited until Dongfang Wan said inarticulately: "I also want a corn." "I just took one more and added it.

While eating, while waiting for the corn to be roasted, Dongfang Wan asked casually, "Hey, your relationship with Teacher Yahan is stiff?" ”

"Huh?"

"I see that you didn't say hello today...... Well, in fact, there was a problem when it wasn't on vacation, she never punished you before, but then she withdrew the punishment for you, and I thought you were reconciled again. ”

"Because I didn't do well in the final exam this time, she decided not to favor me for a semester."

Dongfang Wan was stunned for a moment, and then rolled her eyes: "Cut...... It's not a child......"

Jia Ming shrugged his shoulders with a smile, and Dongfang Wan moved the stool and sat closer: "Hey, did you see that guy who was with Teacher Yahan, I heard that he is very likely to catch up with Teacher Yahan, although there is no substantial progress yet, but Teacher Xu Mo has never succeeded in inviting Teacher Yahan to go on a date, at least he succeeded...... Poor Teacher Xu Mo, so infatuated......"

"Oh?" Methodically flipping the food on the shelf, Jiaming replied casually.

"Well, that man's name is Mato...... It's a disgusting name...... The family is said to be a nouveau riche in the underworld, not too powerful, but it is said that when Mr. Yahan studied in Cambridge, this person was also in Cambridge, everyone is a Chinese student, I have known each other for a long time, he is said to be a master now, and he is a manager in a foreign-funded enterprise. ”

"Cut ......" Jiaming smiled and sent the roasted corn to her, "What do you mean by hooking up so ugly, why are you so gossipy......"

Dongfang Wan is naturally not a gossip person, if it weren't for the relationship between Jiaming and Yahan, she wouldn't bother to inquire about these things. At this time, he was stunned for a moment, and then said with a straight face: "Gossip is a woman's surname, don't you know?" Then he stretched out his hand and snatched everything from the barbecue grill, "By the way, give these things to me, I'll just say that I roasted them, and I promise to impress those people, maybe we're one step closer to the next order, haha...... Bye-bye ......"

Feeling that she had taken advantage of Jiaming again, Dongfang Wan waved her hand and ran very fast, and her tone was extremely excited. Jiaming shrugged his shoulders, feeling that he really looked like a part-time chef, but it was okay to use the barbecue to pass the time, he took a bunch of things and roasted them again, and when he looked back, Yahan was gone, Dongfang Wan was holding half a corn in the living room and gnawing very hard, talking and laughing with people, most of them were bragging about their barbecue skills, Dongfang Lu nodded to him with a smile.

Sitting on the railing of the aisle of the small garden with food, eating while blowing the sea breeze, listening to the music in the living room and the laughter of the crowd. In the lively scene where there are not too many acquaintances around, Jia Ming can always think of some things in the past, such as the people he has killed in such scenes countless times. Far or near, with a knife or a gun, or with these seemingly fragile bamboo sticks in the hand, it is not impossible to pierce the mouth, throat, and directly stab the chest in the summer, but it requires an unusually accurate pinch, impartially through the heart, after all, the muscles in the chest are relatively thick, and the bamboo skewers will still break if they are slightly inaccurate. Of course, if the target is an ordinary person, he can also make up a dead punch directly to the chest at close range, and directly stop the opponent's heart beating with great force.

While thinking about these things, a purple figure came over at the corner of the opposite aisle, and after seeing him, he suddenly stopped. That's naturally Yahan.

If you want to pretend not to know, Yahan just walked over directly from the beginning, but at this time he paused, but he seemed to have to say hello, and after a while, Jia Ming smiled and handed over the things in his hand: "Chicken wings? ”

"Uh...... I don't like to eat chicken wings, and ......" Yahan's gaze was messy for a moment, then he took a breath and shook his hands that were still stained with droplets, "and...... I've washed my hands. ”

"Oh." Jiaming nodded, thinking about saying something in his heart, but Yahan had already added: "That...... Grill the fish, I'm still a little hungry...... I wanted to eat something else......"

Taking the grilled fish from Jiaming's hand, Yahan sat down on the railing next to Jiaming, took a bite, then wiped the oil stains on his mouth, and said with a smile: "Well, it's delicious, it's not the same grade as the one I grilled." ”

"That's why I said you want to try my grilled chicken wings."

"Heh......" Yahan smiled, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Uh, why did you come over with Dongfang Wan, and still hold hands...... What about Ling Jing and Sha Sha ...... "She had scolded Jia Ming Huaxin when she was incoherent before, and the current words obviously also have this layer of meaning, Jia Ming smiled and told her about Lei Qing, today Dongfang Wan found the hotel, and then Ling Jing and Sha Sha pushed him out, and when this series of things was finished, Yahan's expression finally became natural.

"Heh, I see, Lei Qing ...... It is true that he doesn't have much ability, and it's no wonder that Dongfang Wan doesn't look down on him, but if there is a family power in the way, I'm afraid Dongfang Wan won't be able to refuse Lei Qing much. These things ......"

"Well, I think the reason why Dongfang Wan wants to get that toy factory is also because she hopes that after proving her ability, she won't be thrown away casually as a bargaining chip."

"Dongfang Wan is very powerful, and her surname is also very strong. Maybe I will inevitably be taken out and kissed in the future. She looked at Jiaming's reaction, then smiled a little unnaturally, and shrugged her shoulders, "Well, it shouldn't matter for the time being, after Liu Wenli's incident, the family rarely mentions this aspect of things, after all, I still have a disease." ”

"I remember that your family planned to let you go to the United States for treatment last year, why hasn't there been any news yet?"

"I really hope that I will leave Jianghai, and from now on, no one will say that you have a moral problem?" Glancing at Jiaming, Yahan smiled, "Uh...... Just kidding, but if you're with Ling Jing and Shasha, I'll definitely object to it, because that's not the right thing, anyway...... It's not right......"

Jiaming was a little speechless, Yahan seemed to realize that his words were too bad, bowed his head and was silent for a while, before he said: "Last year, the United States said that there was some progress, but it was because our family invested a lot of money in that hospital, and they said it sounded good, and at the end of the year, they said that I am afraid that this progress is not very useful, and it will take a while, I recently called to ask, and I am afraid that there will be a breakthrough at the end of November this year, and it is strange to believe him, anyway, I am too lazy to think about this...... What's more, it's okay to control it now, and I'll be nervous when I need to replace my kidney......"

Such a sad and weak words, as soon as he said it, Yahan regretted it a little, was he expecting his sympathy or pity, but Jiaming didn't know what to say, in the end, Yahan ate the grilled fish in his hand, stretched out his hand and smiled: "Wings." Jia Ming handed one over, and Yahan carefully bit it.

"Well, it's much better than what I baked, and I don't know what went wrong with the hard one I baked...... By the way, do you remember a fat man named Ma'an? ”

Jia Ming thought for a moment, then nodded: "That fat man in Xinghui High School, the one who used to always trouble me and Shasha, and then went to the Sacred Heart through your relationship...... Heh, I still remember that he once tried to block Sha Sha and take nude photos......"

Yahan also sneered: "I didn't expect you to remember him, did you see the person who came with me today?" ”

"Isn't it...... You want to tell me that the obscene fat man has become such a jade tree in the wind? ”

"What the hell, huh...... His name was Mato, and he was the brother of Ma'an, whom I had met in Cambridge, and I was very young at the time, and I was very well taken care of among the Chinese students, and he also helped me a little, and that time I let his brother into the Sacred Heart, and when he came back, he heard my name, and then he came over. And then I was like, wow...... It's a little bit ...... world."

"Hmm...... Listening to Dongfang Wan's gossip, it is said that he is pursuing you, and he is also very hopeful, poor Xu Mo ......"

Yahan's expression froze, looking at Jiaming for a while, he didn't know whether to tell the truth to prevent him from misunderstanding himself or telling lies to make him jealous, but finally laughed: "What's the matter, it's just a very ordinary friend, this time I came out, I was really stuffy at home for too long, and I was kicked out by my little mother, didn't you always say that I was lazy?" I drove that classic car for maintenance today, so I had to take his car over...... Well...... Scold...... Hmmm......"

As she spoke, her eyes suddenly became a little sour, and she couldn't help lowering her head, but fortunately, the lights were dim here, and she didn't think Jia Ming could see it. At this moment, a voice sounded from not far away: "Hey, Yahan, come here, Wanzhen and they are also here, I heard that you are coming, let you go over to play pool, hey......" Looking back, Namato was waving his hand excitedly.

"Uh...... Also classmates I met in Cambridge. Yahan smiled at Jia Ming, "Do you want to go over and have fun too?" I introduced you to them. ”

This sentence is naturally a polite remark, and Jia Ming waved his hand: "It's still not necessary, I'm not very good at billiards, not to mention what's going on with a child among a bunch of you adults, there is a generation gap." ”

"Hehe, in fact, I'm a few years younger than each of them, and there's almost a generation gap, but ...... I know you don't like to associate with these strangers, so I'll go first. She stood up, took the half-eaten chicken wings, smiled and waved her hand, "Bye-bye." ”

"Bye."

With a smile on her face, Yahan took a few steps and turned back, but finally turned away and disappeared behind the white wall at the aisle turn. Jiaming was eating, thinking about the meaning of this chat, and it seemed that they had become friends again, but between the two, there was always some lingering haze, and after that, she would still maintain an attitude of turning a blind eye to herself, such a thing, no matter what, it is always a little sad.
