Chapter XVII
Halfway through the banquet, the highlight of the day is coming.
Shen Xiao, who was drinking silently on the side, didn't know that his heart was about to be broken again.
Jing Ye, who watched Shen Xiao drinking, didn't know that he would be heartbroken for Shen Xiao again.
"Everyone, please be still!" Shiratsuki's father, Shiraishi, presided over the overall situation and said to the guests.
"As you all know, today is the 18th birthday of the little girl, it is the day of adulthood, and she will grow up after today." Saying that, Mr. Bai looked at Bai Yue with a deep love in his eyes, "It's an adult." In addition to love, Mr. Bai also exudes a deep reluctance, as if her daughter is about to leave her parents' wings and fly alone.
"Dad, I won't leave you now, I can stay with you and my mother for a long time." Bai Yue put away her dignified face, and showed a rare little daughter posture, coquettishly to his father, while comforting her father and mother.
"Okay, okay." Mr. Bai happily touched Bai Yue's head, "You are my precious daughter." ”
Bai Yue's mother also smiled happily and happily, but when she looked closely, there seemed to be a little tear in her eyes.
"Ladies and gentlemen, before cutting the cake, I would like to announce a happy event. The little girl Bai Yue will be engaged to Chen Yan, the second young master of the Chen Group, today. From now on, our two families will be in-laws. Mr. Bai said, and the smile on his face became even stronger.
Chen Yan and his parents walked up from the bottom of the stairs, and Chen Yan came to Mr. Bai's side, still with a smile on his face. His father looked at Mr. Bai with a standard and polite smile on his face, polite and detached, and then said to the guests: "In the future, the Bai family and our Chen family will be a family!" ”
Bai Lao took Bai Yue's hand and put it in Chen Yan's hand. "My daughter will be handed over to you later." Mr. Bai said solemnly, "If I knew that you were not good to her, you kid knew the consequences." He didn't forget to warn Chen Yan when he loved his daughter.
Chen Yan's father gave him a look, he put away his indecent smile, he looked so sincere without a smile, as long as he said it, you would seem to believe it. "Please rest assured, I will make Yue'er happy." Chen Yan said solemnly.
"Good, good, good." Mr. Bai looked at Chen Yan's eyes, it was calm and bright, there was only tranquility in it, and there was no calculation. He said three good words in a row.
When Chen Yan's father saw Chen Yan say this, the smile on his face did not disappear, and he was still polite and distant.
After Mr. Bai and Chen Yan's father announced the matter, the guests hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
"Congratulations!"
"Congratulations on the good son-in-law"
"Congratulations on double happiness."
"Congratulations on riding the dragon and getting married."
......
......Mr. Bai and Mrs. Bai were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths, and they thanked the guests who came to say hello one by one.
There are joys and worries, Shen Xiao thought that the goddess's rejection of him today was already the saddest thing for him, but he didn't expect that there was still a bomb waiting for him, he was standing there, and the bomb smashed into his head mercilessly, is today his first unlucky day on earth?
Shen Xiao couldn't stay any longer, and he didn't even scream Jingye, so he ran out. Jing Ye, who had been paying attention to Shen Xiao, immediately followed him and chased him out.
They didn't know that at the moment they went out, many people gathered their eyes to the door and watched them leave.
Li Yiting, Chen Yan, and even Bai Yue also took a look......
Jing Ye was behind Shen Xiao and followed him not far or close, so that he could immediately know Shen Xiao's condition, comfort him, enlighten him, and not disturb him.
Shen Xiao kept running in front, his brain couldn't think about anything anymore, he only knew that his heart was aching for a while, and he was almost unconscious, and only by running and running all the time could he relieve the pain in his heart.
"Heha, heha......" Shen Xiao gradually stopped, making a heavy breathing sound, and even his breathing made Shen Xiao hurt fiercely. Jing Ye stopped three meters away from him, and the iceberg face was still the same iceberg face, but the distress in his eyes couldn't be hidden at all.
Shen Xiao looked at the flowers on the side of the road, it was a beautiful rose, in September, in the last flower season, still trying to bloom itself, the tenacious flowers grew delicately, not at all like they were about to fall.
Shen Xiao looked at the flower and felt irritated, why do even flowers live better than me, why am I worse than flowers, is this flower laughing at me? He reached out to pluck the gleaning-looking rose, but a fair, knuckled hand stopped him. Shen Xiao followed the direction of his hand and looked at the owner of his hand, which was Jingye who had been following him.
"There's a thorn, don't hurt yourself." Jing Ye slowly said words of concern, and the words were full of tenderness for him.
"What about injuries? I'm already in pain and won't hurt anymore. Shen Xiao said with the strength of the wine, and waved Jing Ye's hand away, wanting to pick the delicate rose again.
Seeing that he couldn't stop him, Jing Ye quickly reached out and took off the rose first. Due to Sedume's impatience, he didn't pay attention to the thorns on the flower stems at all. "Whew", Sedum made an inaudible sound. Several of his fingers had been cut by the thorns on the stem, and a vibrant, vivid red color flowed out, and he secretly wiped the blood away, leaving no trace to be seen.
Jing Ye plucked the thorns from the stem one by one, then handed the flowers to Shen Xiao, and said in the softest voice in his life: "Xiao, don't let yourself get hurt. ”
