Chapter 31 The Delicate Ones That Come Out
Ruoruo has not seen the scene, and has participated in countless banquets and banquets in the past two years by Mu Ruoci's side, but he has never seen such a chic dinner.
The history of the white dinner has been mentioned by Mu Ruoci, it was originally an annual traditional festival in France, and later the aristocratic merchants of many countries were also inspired by this white dinner and began to hold similar dinners.
If you heard that Ren Chengzhi's temper would definitely not care much about this, although there are always some unbelievable things in his life, how did such a custom as the white dinner get into his eyes? Maybe it's just a whim of this young master, but it's not like this year, and it's so grand, there is always some room for unpredictable speculation.
The decoration of the banquet infield was hollowed out from the castle of a Czech count's house, and it happened that it was also a path of white, from wood carvings to marble and even a candlestick was a deep and shallow white, new and old, and the ancient meaning revealed the high of the nobility, and only the Ren family was so magnificent.
If it was the first time for him to sit alone at such a dinner table, he only stared at the antique white-glazed porcelain plate in front of him, locked his eyes and did not move, but only listened attentively to what everyone was saying.
Except for Yang Liang, none of these people in the seat had seen any other faces, so they had to study silently in their hearts, for fear of making a mistake.
Yang Liang is more generous and decent than just now, and he can't see that he has just been aggressive, and he doesn't have any inappropriate appearance.
When the banquet was halfway through, Ruoruo didn't answer half a sentence, but coincidentally heard Yang Liang talking about Chiang Kai-shek's diary with a vice chairman of the Hebei Chamber of Commerce.
Ren Chengzhi never speaks at such a dinner, nor does he like to listen to others, he only makes a band on the stage, and lets several powerful singers with really good singing skills take turns to sing tactful and soft tunes, which is not too noisy, so although Yang Liang sits diagonally opposite her, the words on this round table can be heard clearly.
If she had worked hard in these modern history in the past two years, she interjected and asked about some correspondence with Fu Zuoyi written in the later part of Chiang Kai-shek's diary, I don't know if it is true, I was praised and poured wine several times, and her face immediately turned a little crimson, she raised her eyes to see that Yang Liang was also crimson, and couldn't help but smile at each other, but it could be regarded as blending into the atmosphere like this.
If you see that there is always a vacant seat at your table, but all the people who have been explained by Mu Ruoci have already arrived, so you don't take it to heart.
was drinking wine, and suddenly saw Lian being sent by Lin Zicheng to sit in the position that had been hanging empty.
Ruoruo was taken aback, and the wine in his hand didn't know whether to drink or put it down for a while.
Although there is no name card at the table of this dinner, but the number of tables at which everyone sits has been told has long been arranged, this Lian has always been at the same table as Mu Ruoci, and the major banquets are at least a main table and a deputy main table, so how can they sit at this table.
When everyone saw Lian sitting down, they all looked a little uncomfortable, and several gentlemen also put away the joke just now, and they all stopped to toast with Lian.
Lian picked up the wine glass and touched her lips gently, Lin Zicheng, who was standing next to her and had not left, immediately sent a thermos cup, Lian picked it up and took a sip, Lin Zicheng watched Lian finish drinking, leaned over and said a few words in Lian's ear, and then left.
After a while, the atmosphere at the table was tepid.
Here happened to be served a plate of steamed wild yellow croaker, during the banquet a man pointed to this plate of big yellow croaker and said: "When I was a child, the price of this big yellow croaker is very cheap, I don't want to eat it, I don't know when this fish was hyped up, now it is sold to thousands of yuan a catty, this is also what we love to eat, is held out of the delicate, if we don't like to eat, don't hold it, maybe one day it will fall back to the previous price." ”
If you recognize that the person who spoke was the managing director of a medium-sized company, and he was also in charge of hundreds of millions of funds, he couldn't speak at this table, and he had been very low-key before, and when she suddenly heard him say such a big talk, her heart suddenly jumped.
I don't know if it was because of this or what, but half of the men at the table echoed and discussed the topic of this expensive fish.
Yin Yin, the vice chairman of a well-known clothing group who was sitting next to Li'an, asked Li'an: "How is the company doing recently?" I heard that something was going on, did you solve it? We are also fated to sit together today, but I have some resources here, how about introducing them to you? As he spoke, he watched Liane take the wine and toast.
If you think about how you got to this situation, you can say it like this on the surface.
But the men at this table somehow were like boiling oil in a pot of lit firecrackers, and they picked up their wine glasses and clinked glasses with Lian, and the words in their mouths never changed from helping to helping.
Don't talk about Ruoruo now, even Yang Liang, an outsider, understands it. Of course, she still remembered Lian's kindness to relieve her of the siege just now, and helped Lian to block it again and again, but she couldn't defeat everyone.
It's just that Lian didn't take a sip despite this, and only said thank you lightly, and the clouds between her eyebrows were light and light, and she was not light from the world.
The first person to speak just now saw that Lian didn't drink, so he suddenly stood up and walked to Lian's position, poured a full glass of his wine glass, and filled Lian's glass, and said with some slurred words: "Lian, if you don't drink this cup today, maybe you won't have a chance to drink it in the future." As he spoke, he put his hand on Liane's shoulder.
Yang Liang looked very dazzling, how to say that it was on such an occasion, and others would forget it, and it was against a goddess-like figure like Li'an in the eyes of the public, this is no longer too much, such frivolity is a blatant humiliation to anyone, why don't you even have a bottom line? Thinking of what happened to Lian recently, even she couldn't help but feel a little bit for Lian.
Sure enough, Lian stood up suddenly, her eyes full of anger that could not be hidden.
Lin Zicheng, who was standing not far away, saw it and immediately walked over, this was the first time he saw Li'an couldn't hide his anger, and immediately said: "Mr. Li is tired today, it's time to go back and rest, everyone will meet again next time." As he spoke, he couldn't help but say that he took Liane and left.
As soon as she took a few steps, Liane didn't know why she glanced back at the few people who were looking at the table in the distance. Lin Zicheng followed Li'an's gaze, but it was Ren Chengzhi, Mu Ruoci, Lin Keqi, and Su Hualong and Li Fan on the main table who were also looking towards this side.
Lin Zicheng looked at Ren Chengzhi sitting like a mountain and looked at Li'an's eyes as cold as ice, and Lin Keqi beside him was smiling at him, and suddenly felt that his heart was as cold as a mountain of ice and ice, and he didn't dare to think about what kind of mood Li'an should be in at this moment.
Just now he persuaded her for a while and asked her not to sit down recklessly, but she said that she had come and sat down later and left early. Now this situation is really even more unbearable than he imagined, how to say that he should also think about the old friendship, such a seating arrangement Ren Chengzhi can't think of the consequences?
He suddenly thought of what Lian had said when she was drunk, and every time she had expected it, but he didn't expect the reality to be much worse than expected.
