Chapter 4 The Controversy over the Celebration Banquet
"Bin, this is a family gathering today, and outsiders are not welcome, you know what I mean, right?" Gui Yalan glanced at Qiu Yaxuan and said meaningfully.
As soon as these words came out, Qiu Yaxuan suddenly felt that she couldn't hold her face, and the slender hand on her knee tightly grabbed her skirt, wanting to have a seizure, but she swallowed her anger because the other party was her sweetheart's mother.
However, her silence does not mean that Yan Bin will remain silent. No matter what, Qiu Yaxuan is also the girl he likes, even if the other party is his mother, he has to speak out to protect her.
It's just that before he could say anything, the back of his hand was covered with a touch of warmth, and he looked down and saw that it was Qiu Yaxuan's slender hand. She didn't say anything, just shook her head at him and turned her face away.
"Auntie, this is my gift to you, I hope you can like it."
Qiu Yaxuan tried hard to raise her smiling face and handed the necklace she had bought at the jewelry store to Gui Yalan. According to her previous experience, a high-class lady like Gui Yalan has a great preference for jewelry, and as long as she sees the valuable necklace inside, she will definitely change her impression of her!
It's a pity that Qiu Yaxuan underestimated Gui Yalan's hatred of her, and even misjudged her preferences, she didn't even want to take a look at the shining necklace.
"Huh! It's just a necklace, what jewelry haven't I seen? What's more, this necklace is so ordinary! Miss Qiu, your appreciation needs to be improved! ”
Although Gui Yalan said this with a smile, Qiu Yaxuan's face instantly turned pale, and she looked like she was about to faint.
At this moment, Yan Bin couldn't stand his mother's pickiness anymore, and he didn't shy away from taking people into his arms.
"Mom, Xiaoxuan is my girlfriend, please be polite to her for my sake!"
Gui Yalan heard the anger hidden in her son's tone, and her face straightened.
"I just wish she could have improved her taste for appreciation, am I wrong to say that?"
The more his son protected this woman, the more unhappy Gui Yalan's heart became. She brought up the child with hard work, not to raise him to talk back to herself!
Jiang Leyao, who was at the same table, sniffed out the smell and hurriedly played a round.
"Auntie, didn't you say that you want to celebrate Young Master Bin? Let's not taste gifts! ”
Similarly, Yan Shaolin also felt the discord between his ex-wife and son, and followed the persuasion to make peace.
"Xiao Yao is right, why are the waiters here so slow? Haven't served food for so long? ”
Saying that, he also thoughtfully poured a cup of tea for his ex-wife, and by the way, he caressed her back to dissipate her anger, and such an intimate act made Gui Yalan's body stiffen.
I saw her turn her head and warn Yan Shaolin with her eyes to pay attention to her own proportions, but Yan Shaolin turned her head and didn't see it.
Yan Bin looked at the reproachful eyes cast by his father, and instantly realized that his tone of voice was a little impulsive, and then looked at Qiu Yaxuan in his arms, she was pouting with a pair of big watery eyes, looking at him pitifully, almost hurting his heart.
"Mom, I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that to you just now."
Although this apology was addressed to Gui Yalan, Yan Bin's eyes stayed on Qiu Yaxuan from beginning to end, which made the anger in Gui Yalan's heart even higher, and at the same time, there was a trace of imperceptible pain hidden in the corners of her eyes.
It turns out that the son is too big and will really become someone else's......
"Forget it, I apologize insincerely, I'd rather treat it as if I didn't hear it." She said coldly.
At this time, the waiter brought in the dishes and wine that Gui Yalan had ordered before, and Le Yao carefully watched the attitude of everyone. She didn't want Gui Yalan to be upset, but she didn't want to make Yan Bin angry, she knew very well that she had no position to accuse Yan Bin of being rude.
"Madam, I've heard that the red wine in the 'Shihui House' is famous for its deliciousness, so you have to teach me well." She smiled.
Gui Yalan saw the sweet smile on Le Yao's face, and half of the anger in her heart disappeared in an instant. She didn't bother to look at the eyebrow flirtation between her son and Qiu Yaxuan, so she directly turned her attention to Le Yao and taught her how to taste wine, which made Yan Shaolin and Yan Bin's father and son breathe a sigh of relief at the same time, but it also made Qiu Yaxuan twist her eyebrows......
Although this celebration banquet was not as cheerful as everyone imagined, except for the small episode before the banquet, it went smoothly. After dinner, Yan Bin sent Qiu Yaxuan home as usual.
"Bin, Auntie really doesn't like me!" Qiu Yaxuan looked sad and said that she didn't understand where she had offended Gui Yalan and made her so dissatisfied with herself! Even the best jewelry couldn't touch her heart.
"No, it won't." Yan Bin took her into his arms distressedly, "Don't think about it, Mom, she's just not used to me having a girlfriend for a while." He reassured.
To be honest, his mother's disgust with Qiu Yaxuan was also beyond his expectations, from the first time they met, her mother showed mercilessly that she didn't like Qiu Yaxuan's attitude.
"Auntie, she likes Xiao Yao so much......"
Qiu Yaxuan pouted, with incomprehension and envy in her beautiful eyes.
"After all, Xiao Yao grew up in our parents, and her parents have been working in our family, and it is normal for my mother to be close to her." He explained.
"Is it really just human intimacy?" She narrowed her eyes and asked suspiciously.
"What do you want to say?"
In his eyes, Qiu Yaxuan is a very simple girl, so simple that as long as she thinks about it, she will show it on her face.
"I ...... I just think...... Forget it, nothing. ”
Her appearance of wanting to speak completely aroused the curiosity in Yan Bin's heart, and he cupped her face and lightly imprinted a kiss on her forehead.
"Silly girl, is there anything else we can't say between us?"
"Hmm...... It's not a big deal! Qiu Yaxuan tilted her head, as if she wanted to sort out her thoughts, "I sometimes feel that my aunt seems to like Xiao Yao as your girlfriend!" She looked at him tentatively.
"Haha! How is that possible? My mom wouldn't think so. Yan Bin said firmly.
Regardless of whether he agrees or not, even his father probably wouldn't agree to such a thing happening. The Yan family is a world-famous enterprise, and his father would never agree to him marrying an orphan girl.
"Really?"
Qiu Yaxuan opened her eyes, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes, Gui Yalan didn't feel as light as Yan Bin said, her attitude towards Jiang Leyao and her towards her was very different! It's just a little orphan girl who no one cares about, why should she compete with her, a perfect daughter with a wealthy background? Do you think that as long as you pretend to be soft and innocent, you can win everyone's love? She Qiu Yaxuan doesn't eat this!
"Xiao Xuan, what are you thinking?" Catching a glimpse of his girlfriend's uncertain face, Yan Bin asked with concern.
"Huh! It's okay, I'm relieved to hear you say that. She smiled again and said, the car slowly stopped at its destination, "Thank you for taking me home." ”
"You're welcome, good night!" He reluctantly said goodbye.
Qiu Yaxuan, who got out of the car, waved her hand at the window and said, "Good night!" ”
Turning around, the corners of her mouth hooked up a mysterious smile, Qiu Yaxuan walked into the mansion elegantly under Yan Bin's gaze......
