Chapter 12: The Rite of Passage

"It turns out that your ugly duckling can still turn into a white swan, and it seems that there is still a cure." In the car, Qiu Yinjiu picked his eyes and looked at Nuan Nuan again, his tone was still very flat, and the corners of Nuan Nuan's mouth twitched a few times when he heard it.

"Each other, each other." Nuan Nuan was not annoyed on her face, she stretched her lips and replied with a smile, but there was a thick provocation in her words without gunsmoke.

Qiu Yinjiu's eyebrows were raised, her eyes locked on the beautiful smile of the girl opposite, and after putting on makeup, she emitted a dazzling brilliance like a pearl washed away from the lead, making people want to use gold wire to create a luxurious box to collect her. His eyes sparkled, and there was a faint layer of joy in his eyes, he was the first to discover pearls!

"What kind of banquet is it to dress up so heavily?" Nuan Nuan looked down at the gorgeous dress on her body and asked curiously.

"You'll know when you get there."

Nuan Nuan pouted and didn't say anything more.

The car stopped at the door of the most luxurious hotel in the city, Qiu Yinjiu was a rare gentleman, helped Nuan Nuan out of the car, put Nuan Nuan's right hand in the crook of his arm, and walked into the hotel. There were two rows of majestic and tall men in sunglasses standing at the door of the hotel, and they all bowed when they saw Qiu Yinjiu.

Qiu Yinjiu ignored all these people's salutes, he turned his head to look at Nuan Nuan beside him, and saw her calm and unmoved look, the corners of his mouth hooked, both satisfied and proud, the better the person he fancied behaved, of course the happier he was.

Walking into the hotel, I took a special elevator directly to the floor where the banquet hall was located, and there were two waiters standing at the door of the hall.

"Tonight's protagonist is finally here!" A high-pitched voice rang out, and the people in the hall looked in the direction of the door almost simultaneously.

Seeing this situation, Nuan Nuan's eyelids jumped, she turned her head slightly and glanced at Qiu Yinjiu, this guy turned out to be the protagonist of tonight's banquet? No wonder they are dressed so heavily. But even so, she still couldn't guess what kind of banquet it was, if it was a birthday party, most of the people present should be young people, but that glance was quite old, and young people became foils.

All kinds of eyes swept over, and the two walked all the way to the center of the hall, passing in front of many people, someone greeted Qiu Yinjiu, and Qiu Yinjiu only nodded reservedly.

"Why haven't I seen him for a few days, Xiao Jiu has changed a lot, I almost didn't recognize it!" The middle-aged man in a rich shape looked at Qiu Yinjiu who came over, and said with a smile to the man in a dark suit next to him.

The man smiled silently, his eyes slipped around the person next to Qiu Yinjiu, and a meaningful expression appeared on his face that seemed to be three points like Qiu Yinjiu.

Qiu Yinjiu walked up to the man with Nuan Nuan and said, "Dad." Then he turned his head to say hello to the rich man and shouted "Uncle Wen".

"Xiao Jiu has a female companion, I still think that if you don't have one, I'll introduce you to one!" Uncle Wen said with a smile.

Qiu Yinjiu turned his head to look at Nuan Nuan, showed a slight smile, and said, "I understand Uncle Wen's kindness." ”

"Xiao Jiu, come on stage with me, don't let your uncles wait for a long time." Qiu's father spoke.

Qiu Yinjiu patted the back of Nuan Nuan's hand and said to that Uncle Wen, "Uncle Wen, I want you to help me watch her." ”

"Don't worry, I won't let anyone kidnap your female companion!" Uncle Wen laughed.

"Wait for me here." Qiu Yinjiu looked at Nuan Nuan and said a word, then let go of his hand and followed his father onto the stage.

Nuan Nuan looked at Qiu Yinjiu's back, and secretly gritted her teeth, knowing that this banquet was specially organized for Qiu Yinjiu, and she would not agree to be a female companion if she was killed, this feeling of being both a monkey and a fool was really bad.

"Where is the little girl?" Uncle Wen's voice sounded beside him.

Nuan Nuan turned sideways slightly, looked back at the other party, and said with a smile: "Ordinary people." Of course, she knew what this Uncle Wen was asking, but she didn't have any background, so why pretend.

Uncle Wen squinted with a smile, his face did not show any contempt, it was a smile line that could not be seen, and he only said two words: "Rare." "It's rare for a child from an ordinary family to see this meeting without stage fright, and he can be calm.

On the stage, the father and son were already standing in front of the microphone. The people in the hall stopped talking and fell silent.

Father Qiu looked around at everyone and said: "Today is the adulthood day of the dog, thank you for coming to the adulthood dinner of the dog in person, here I want to announce one thing, Qiu Yinjiu will be the next successor of my Qiu Group......"

What the Qiu family father and son said later, Nuan Nuan didn't listen intently, she suddenly remembered something she had inadvertently said when she heard Zhao Mingcheng chatting with his fox friends and dog friends.

"The world is unpredictable, you see that the Qiu family, which has been rooted in the southwest for hundreds of years, has not been wiped out in an instant because of the killing of that person's son. It is said that it is the only male in the younger generation of the Qiu family to come of age, and the Qiu family somehow killed him as a thief, but who knows if Lu Dao is someone else's fault, you must know that if the Qiu family is not destroyed, how can there be a current ......"

The words she heard at that time echoed in her mind, and when she remembered the last sentence, she suddenly turned her head to look at Uncle Wen who was still smiling next to her, and her heart set off a shock, what is the relationship between that Wen family and this Uncle Wen?

"What's wrong?" Uncle Wen immediately turned his gaze and looked at Nuan Nuan.

Nuan Nuan blinked, the corners of her mouth showed just the right amount of shyness, and said, "I haven't eaten in the afternoon, I'm a little hungry......"

Uncle Wen was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Hehe, the food in this hotel tastes good, you can go over there to taste it first, Xiao Jiu won't come over for a while." ”

Nuan Nuan nodded, walked to the dining table, and was slightly relieved to carry Uncle Wen behind her back, just now she just glanced at Uncle Wen, and the latter noticed that this kind of sensitivity is really rare and can be compared.

Speaking of which, she really didn't eat in the afternoon, so she glanced around the dining table, picked up the plate and began to pick up what she liked to eat, and saw that Qiu Yinjiu was talking to others with his father over there, and she herself found a no-man's corner to enjoy dinner.

She was eating the last bit of cake on the plate, and as soon as it was dark in front of her, she looked up and saw Qiu Yinjiu looking at her with a frown.

"Hungry?" Qiu Yinjiu asked.

"Hmm." Nuan Nuan made a nasal sound, and her mouth was still slowly chewing on food.

"Don't eat these, wait a little longer, I'll take you to hot food."

"Hmm." Nuan Nuan answered again, but her mouth opened and she took the last piece of cake into her mouth.

"......" Qiu Yinjiu.

When Qiu Yinjiu's eyes became unkind, Nuan Nuan hurriedly put down the plate, smiled flatteringly at the birthday star, and said, "Happy birthday, Comrade birthday star." She was muttering in her heart, she was embarrassed to mix in junior high school students when she was an adult, and this kind of thing was only done by a shameless person like Qiu Yinjiu.

"Cream." Qiu Yinjiu's gaze moved downward, landing on her cream-stained lips, and reminded her.

Nuan Nuan was stunned for a moment, reacted, and rolled the cream on her lips into her mouth with her tongue stretched out.

Qiu Yinjiu's eyes suddenly darkened, pursed his lips, leaned forward, and was about to make a move, when suddenly a loud voice came.

"Brother Jiu, how can you do this? I've been waiting for you for two years, and I'm so sad that you will empathize as soon as you come back! ”

When Nuan Nuan heard the prestige, she saw a hot girl in a black low-cut evening dress walking over.
