Chapter 59

The Gu family's garden is a large empty lawn, when night falls, the dwarf lights around the garden are lit up, and there is a row of neatly trimmed evergreen trees in the garden, looking through the light, two rows of fiery red rhododendrons are blooming, and the flowers are red and yellow, which is bright shrimp red.

Since it wasn't a summer night, it snowed a few times in a row, and the garden was sparsely populated, so most of the guests waited indoors to enjoy the warm indoor banquet.

Gu Shaoqing stood on the back of an old laurel tree, leaning on with half a glass of champagne. After a few days, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and his lonely back became more and more lonely against the background of the night.

I walked into him slowly, and the more I got to him, the more timid I felt about my hometown. How do I speak? Did you ask him how he was doing these days? But Fei Yingshu clearly said that he was not good, not at all.

Or ask him I heard that you are going to be engaged to Miss Feijia, what is your explanation? But I knew that Mr. Gu was deliberately hiding it from him.

So what to say?

Shall we break up? I've already written a breakup letter, but I haven't had time to give it to you yet, and I want to tell you in person?

I feel like a clown jumping off the beam, setting up a stage that cannot be dismantled, writing and acting in a one-man show, but pulling out a few dispensable audiences.

I am more like a lost sheep, looking at my lover who is close at hand, thinking of him and thinking of him, but digging my own grave and pushing him away, just for the unreasonable reality.

Fei Yingshu said that she liked him, so she didn't care who he was with, and she was lucky to be killed.

What a free and generous woman this is, I really feel inferior to myself.

I can't help but take a few steps back and ask why. Didn't I already know for sure that the result was made for myself? Let's go, go as far as possible. Thinking of this, I stopped and looked at it, and turned to leave.

Father and mother decided on his sister's marriage, and Mr. Gu's vision was very different at this time.

That day, the second uncle came to the house and angrily told his father the news that the Gu family and the seventh lady of the Fei family had privately discussed the engagement, and the father was surprised and amazed at the amazing news power of the second uncle in recent years.

Gu Rulin hid the matter so tightly that even the most insightful tabloid in Nanjing did not have the slightest news in advance, but the second uncle knew the news in advance. If it weren't for Mr. Gu's intention to disclose the information to his sister, probably our family would have to wait until the host's family officially announced it, just like everyone here today.

My father was heartbroken about me and my sister, but he had already made a decision that neither of us was allowed to marry into the Gu family, and Gu Rulin negotiated with the family several times without a problem, but he turned the situation around in the recent incident. My father began to re-examine his relationship with his sister, and my voluntary withdrawal undoubtedly added a guarantee to my father's vacillation. And I forgot a crucial weight, that is, the lintel of the revitalization of Liu's Mansion that I mentioned to Haizhu at the beginning. So at this time, the father and the teacher were accompanied by Mr. Gu to greet in the crowd, which seemed to be a little more reasonable.

It's just me, walking in the banquet room with fragrant clothes and sideburns, but I have the illusion of being in the wilderness.

"Ah Zhao, are you feeling unwell? Does it matter? "My mother and sister were chatting with a wife I didn't know, and when they saw me coming, they stopped greeting me, came and shook my hand and touched my forehead, "It's a little hot, you have a fever for the past two days, and you shouldn't have forced yourself to come." Why don't I go back with you first, and let your father and sister stay, they are willing to participate anyway. It's good for us to go home clean, out of sight and out of mind. What do you think? ”

"Okay, I was just looking for you and saying I wanted to go back first."

"Mom tell your sister and we'll go."

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the door." As I spoke, I went to the door.

The musicians played a few notes as a prelude to the dance, and then a foxtrot waltz began with the deep and graceful sound of the violins.

Foxtrot originated in the United States, and at this time it did not fully enter the Chinese social circle, but it was just a dance music that was popular on a small scale at the banquets of a few celebrities returning from abroad. It is only because of its free dance steps, smooth movements, like flowing water, quiet and elegant, that it is used as the first dance in the opening warm-up.

"It's all here, don't you dance before leaving?" Suddenly, someone tapped me on the shoulder, and when I looked back, I saw Shike standing in front of me with a smile, dressed in a light-colored suit and suave. "I ran away after leaving me at my eldest brother's wedding banquet last time, so I should make up for it this time, right?" Seke said, his gaze scanning my face carefully, and then frowning.

"Ah Zhao, are you sick?"

I shook my head and forced a smile, "Why, am I fine?" Why would you come too? ”

Shike pointed to Uncle Tong, who was standing not far away, and explained: "You know, my father has always wanted to open the hospital to Nanjing, and the two biggest people in the city are here tonight, can my father not come?" I see that your face is really bad, why don't you go to sports, dance, sweat, and look better, I'll send you back, what do you think? ”

I wanted to refuse, I came here to see my brother, but now that I have seen it, it doesn't matter if I stay or not.

Just as we were about to answer, we saw Uncle He walking towards us with Minister He, and in a hurry, he took Shike's hand and walked to the center of the dance floor.

The upper body movements of foxtrot dance are changeable, most of them use reflexive action positions, and the dance steps are varied, often requiring tacit understanding between dance partners. At this moment, he took me to gently rotate with the movement of the music, my toes slightly off the ground, and my body was sweating finely between the pulling, which was indeed much more relaxed.

"Who did you just see? How does it look like hell? Was it that I was frightened by the people at the police station that day? Shike asked.

"It's just that I saw someone I didn't want to see, so I wanted to hide."

Shike smiled: "Can you hide?" Tonight is not a rich businessman, a popular star, but an important member of the political circles, a general of a warlord. There are also the Taipan of foreign banks, the counselors of foreign embassies, and the famous Hongru. Only your identity as a retreat disciple of Mr. Yaoshan cannot be avoided. What's more, Minister Gu's purpose for inviting your family here, I think you know better than me. ”

I smiled bitterly, looked at Shi Ke and said, "You are really ruthless, you used to coax me."

Shike grabbed my arm a little tighter: "That's because I want you not to run away, Ah Zhao, whether you want to or not, this question can't be avoided."

"I know, that's why I'm here today. Look, isn't my sister dancing with Mr. Gu? ”

Shike followed my gaze and saw that my sister was also dancing this foxtrot dance that completely tested the tacit cooperation between dance partners, with a gentle and bright smile on her face.

"So, you've all made your decision?" Shike asked.

"Yes." I replied, "A lifelong decision!" ”

"Really? But...... I disagree! Gu Shaoqing's voice suddenly appeared behind me over the heavy tail note of the violin, hitting the bottom of my heart, the man who made me laugh and made me cry, with the attitude of his possessor, slowly pulled me back from under Shike's arm back into his arms, and never let go.

The spotlight turned on, the first song was full, and the bustling crowd slowly quieted down at this time, waiting for the master Mr. Gu to speak......
