Chapter 318: Engagement
"Lan Ruo, are you over there?" A figure appeared in the doorway, looking this way. When he walked in, he was a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old young man, with a knife-like Chinese face, wearing a straight suit, and the whole person looked radiant.
"Lan Ruo, you are here. Come inside, the party is about to start, and grandpa says he would love to see you. He Xi, the face of the national character, looked at Dongfang Lanruo, and said with tenderness in his eyes.
"I see, I'll go right away." Dongfang Lanruo took off his sunglasses, and a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes. Return the sunglasses to Long Yi: "I'll go first." ”
Because it was too dark here, He Xi didn't see Long Yi's face clearly, and he didn't know that the person who was one step away from him was the one who beat him into a pig's head in Sining City. He thought that Long Yi was Dongfang Lanruo's acquaintance, smiled at him, took Dongfang Lanruo's hand and left.
The banquet is about to start, and Long Yi has to go to Fang Ming's side, he is now his bodyguard.
Mr. He's banquet is not a cocktail party, it is a very traditional oriental banquet method, there are several tables in the huge restaurant, and the middle one is naturally Mr. He and his children and some friends with status, and the name of the party is also among them.
Sitting next to him are the grandchildren of Old Man He, some of whom got married early and already have children, and a family of four generations is in the same house. The old man who watched it smiled from ear to ear.
A bunch of freshly dressed and angry descendants of the He family gathered together with wine glasses to chat, drink and fart. As the son of the He family, He Qi is the focus of attention, although he is a gentleman, idle all day long, and he is not very old, but he is very majestic in these gentlemen who are despised by the brothers in the army in the family. Just as he was talking about his newly discovered drug to improve male combat effectiveness, he shook his head very proudly, and then the expression on his face froze, and the corners of his mouth that had been slightly raised also deflated, and he saw the nightmare in his life. He thought back to the unbearable days in Sonic City.
He made a random excuse and left the circle of squires and hid in the shadows to observe his nightmare-maker. Even though he was wearing a suit, he could still recognize him! He immediately thought of reporting to his eldest brother, but in a blink of an eye, he saw that his eldest brother was accompanying his grandfather. He also knows that his grandfather, the general, doesn't like him, although he seems to be very happy and laughing now, but as long as he is in the past, he will inevitably be lectured by him for a while, he is not happy and he is not happy, so don't go over to find scolding. Besides, it's my grandfather who invites him to dinner today, so I don't dare to mess around!
The tragedy was obviously scared by the drunken Long Yi, he didn't realize that this was his family, his home field, why should the young master of his He family be afraid of an outsider in the He family? Even if he reacted, it was useless, Long Yi was really too heavy last time, leaving a permanent shadow in the young master's young heart. I don't know how big this shadow is.
Long Yi came to the restaurant and saw that basically all the guests were seated, he nodded at Fang Ming, found a place for himself, nodded to the people around him, said hello and sat down.
On the table in the middle, all eyes are on him, Old Man He sits at the top, and on both sides of him are his eldest son, He Ruchang, commander of the Gyeonggi garrison, with the rank of general, and his second son, He Ruhui, commander of the Northeast Military Region, with the rank of general, and next to him is his third son, He Ruyao, chief of staff of the Northwest Military Region, with the rank of lieutenant general. There is also his fourth son who is in business, He Ruzu, who is now one of the few business tycoons in China. His daughter, Major General He Rufang of the Logistics Department, and his son-in-law, Zhang Ze, a leading contemporary military expert in China. In addition to these children, the others are Fang Ming, the commander-in-chief of the Huaxia National Security Bureau, and the commander-in-chief of the Southwest Military Region.
Several people are also old acquaintances, sitting together and chatting not very happily, several people are very tacit to find Mr. He's favorite topics to chat, and keep making Mr. He laugh. Suddenly, Old Man He spoke: "Xiao Fang, why didn't you see that personal bodyguard Luo family kid?" ”
Fang Ming smiled and said, "Oh, Luo Feng has gone on a mission, and he brought another person with him today." ”
"Oh, then I have to see, what kind of young talent can enter your name?" Old Man He said with a smile. Fang Ming bowed his head slightly, and gave Long Yi a look. What is the most important thing about being a bodyguard? Seeing the six roads and listening to the eight directions, paying attention to the movements of the protector at any time, as soon as Fang Ming moved, Long Yi received a message from him, got up and came to Fang Ming's side.
Long Yi is wearing a neat suit today, with a slender figure and a handsome face, which makes people feel good at first glance. Several people nodded with satisfaction, Dongfang had seen Long Yi for thousands of years, and he was slightly stunned when he saw it at this time, and couldn't help blurting out: "Long Yi? ”
"Oh, Oriental, you know?" Old Man He asked.
"Well, this is Bai Longyi, a classmate of the little girl. He has saved the little girl many times. In front of this founding general, Dongfang is like a good student in front of the teacher.
Hearing the words "Bai Longyi", the faces of the He family sitting at the table changed, especially He Ruchang's face became the most gloomy. Old Man He didn't seem to see the changes in his sons, as if he was thinking about something, and asked after a long time: "This name is so familiar?" Seems to have heard it somewhere. He Ruchang whispered a few words in his father's ear, and the old man He showed a clear expression and said with a smile: "Things are over, don't mention the past." If you come, you are a guest, and you should be happy. ”
Fang Ming's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he hurriedly said to Long Yi: "Don't thank you Old General He?" ”
"Huh?" Long Yi was slightly stunned, but he still did as Fang Ming's words, bowed slightly and said: "Thank you Old General He, I wish Old General He good luck like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan." After thinking about it, Long Yi said one more word, don't blame many people.
Sure enough, Old Man He laughed heartily when he heard this, nodded again and again and said, "Okay!" There you go. ”
Seeing Fang Ming nodding, Long Yi bowed slightly to everyone again and retreated.
"Okay, this is good." Old Man He smiled at Fang Ming, "This son is calm and calm, I thought that this son was different from the Luo family boy, but the two of them can talk with the same mouth." ”
"Haha, Fang Ming also found this talent by luck." Fang Ming smiled, but the expression on his face could be seen by anyone who was genuinely happy.
A few people talked and laughed for a while, and Old Man He glanced at Dongfang Qiangu, who nodded. Old Man He stood up and coughed lightly, and the audience immediately quieted down, waiting for the old man's lecture.
"I'm glad you all to be here in a few days, old man, I have lived for almost a hundred years, and I have been in the same house for four generations, and some of my great-granddaughters-in-law are also pregnant, and I will have great-great-grandchildren soon. But what I am most concerned about is my eldest grandson He Xi, who is almost thirty years old and still alone. However, I have good news to announce today! It's my eldest grandson, He Xi, who is getting engaged! "Although Old Man He is old, he can speak with a lot of energy, and he can be heard in every corner of the huge restaurant.
He Xi had been waiting below for a long time, especially when he saw Long Yi, and a wave of anger rose in his heart, but Old Man He had already said that it was not good for him to go to Long Yi for revenge again. But then he was very happy, because Old Man He was faithful to announce his marriage.
He Xi duly pulled up Dongfang Lanruo, who was sitting beside him, stood up and thanked him around.
"President Dongfang, are you getting engaged?" Long Yi's chopsticks, who were eating vegetables, were stagnant, and his mind was blank.
