"She can't regret it temporarily, right?" Lin Changsen nervously grabbed Tang Manman's hand and swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, "Otherwise, Manman, you can call Qiao Xin again and ask?" ”

"Do you have to make dozens of phone calls in half an hour before you are willing?" Ji Shennian slapped Lin Changsen's hand away with a "snap", pulled Tang Manman behind him to protect him, and glanced at Lin Changsen with disgust, "Or are you afraid that Qiao Xin won't be able to guess that there is another situation today?" ”

"yes." Tang Manman looked at Lin Changsen really pitiful, and comforted him kindly, "Today is Qiao Xin's birthday party, she will definitely come." And, when I called her just now, she was already on her way. ”

"Really?" Lin Changsen coughed dryly, and touched the ring in his pocket uneasily.

"Look at you like this." Ji Shennian frowned, "Go out, don't say that you are the gold medal emergency person of Ji's Media, embarrass me." ”

As he spoke, he pulled Tang Manman to the side, and let Lin Changsen prepare quietly alone.

"Deep, I'm a little worried." Tang Manman glanced back uneasily, "What if Qiao Xin rejects Lin Changsen?" ”

She still remembered the photo she saw at Qiao Xin's house before, and she always felt that Qiao Xin had forgotten that relationship as she said on the surface.

"Won't refuse." Ji Shennian replied casually, picked a few pieces of dim sum on the cold dining table, cut them into small pieces and stuffed them into the mouth of Tang Manman, who still wanted to speak, "Trust your man's intuition." ”

"But......" Tang Manman's mouth was stuffed with food, and he had to puff out his cheeks and vaguely retort.

"No, but." Ji Shennian flicked on her forehead, "We have done what should be done and what should be helped, and no one can interfere with the rest of the things, let them solve it themselves." ”

Tang Manman touched his forehead, glanced at Ji Shennian and sighed silently, since she and Ji Shennian solved the misunderstanding, the man has spoiled her more and more, and he can't wait to take care of her like a child, which makes her a little unaccustomed.

Seeing that the man was going to continue feeding, Tang Manman hurriedly reached out to grab it, "I'll do it myself, so many people are watching." ”

"Who dares to see it?" Ji Shennian moved the meal stack away from Tang Manman's hand, raised his eyebrows in a pretended threat, and the people around him who had pricked up their ears to eavesdrop instantly straightened their backs and pretended that nothing had happened.

Tang Manman shook his head with a smile, and just as he wanted to say something, he heard a commotion from the direction of the door of the banquet hall.

Qiao Xin has dressed up carefully today, a little more feminine than usual, and there is a unique beauty intertwined with the heartiness between her eyebrows.

The man she was holding was tall, handsome, and gave people a gentle and polite feeling, and from a distance, the two were very compatible.

"Who's that?" Ji Shennian's expression changed, "When did Qiao Xin get a boyfriend." ”

The hunch in his heart was confirmed, and Tang Manman was in a complicated mood, "It's not a boyfriend, it's an ex-boyfriend......"

Now, what should Lin Changsen do?

"What?" Ji Shennian frowned, looked at the other party's gaze a little more chilly, and turned slightly sideways to Secretary Li, who had been waiting aside, "I remember that tonight's banquet can only be entered by invitation. ”

In order to have no problems with his good brother's marriage proposal, he specially instructed Secretary Li to arrange it like this.

"That's right." Secretary Li secretly complained in his heart, "But that person came in with Minister Qiao...... In other words, the person came with the protagonist of the banquet, and they couldn't stop it even if they wanted to."

"Shennian, what now?" Tang Manman pursed his lips, "Otherwise, let Lin Changsen slow down first?" ”

Obviously, tonight is not a good opportunity to propose.

"It's fine." Ji Shennian thought about it and nodded, and after Secretary Li ordered to immediately cancel tonight's engagement preparations, he pulled Tang Manman to find Lin Changsen, afraid that the other party would do something in a moment of excitement.

However, the two of them looked around the banquet and did not see Lin Changsen's shadow.

"Where did Brother Lin go?" Don Manman's little face flushed.

"He should have seen it." Ji Shennian dialed Lin Changsen a few times, but no one answered, so he had no choice but to give up, "Manman, don't run around with me, just stay here." After I found Lin Changsen, I will call you. ”

Tang Manman touched his uncomfortable stomach and had to nod.

Looking at Ji Shennian's back as he disappeared into the crowd, Tang Manman sighed silently, it was her fault, she should have told Lin Changsen about the photo earlier.

In this way, it will not hurt the other party to rejoice.

"Manman, it turns out that you are here, so I will look for you for a long time." Qiao Xin's voice came from behind her, with a sweet smile on her face that was rarely seen, and her eyes were even brighter.

Tang Manman and Qiao Xin have known each other for so long, and she can tell that Qiao Xin is really happy today. She glanced at the man who was carefully guarding Qiao Xin's side, and her heart became more and more uncomfortable.

Perhaps, this is the arrangement of fate.

"Let me introduce you to you, this is Tang Kai." Qiao Xin held Tang Manman's arm and smiled happily, "My college classmate." ”

"Hello." Tang Kai withdrew the hand that was holding Qiao Xin, shook his head helplessly, and then stretched out his hand with Tang Manman, "Miss Tang, I have admired the name for a long time, I am Qiao Xin's ex-boyfriend, the current suitor." ”

"Hey, hey, what are you talking about?" Qiao Xin glared at Tang Kai angrily, "Who would introduce himself like this, Manman, don't pay attention to him." ”

The communication between Qiao Xin and Tang Kai is tacit and familiar, and anyone who sees it can feel that the relationship between the two is not ordinary. Tang Manman wanted to mention Lin Changsen to Qiao Xin several times, but he was stopped because of the bright smile on Qiao Xin's face.

It was supposed to be a happy birthday, but Tang Manman was absent-minded all the time.

When turning off the lights and cutting the cake, a familiar figure appeared, Tang Manman knew that Ji Shennian was back, she couldn't help but lean towards the man's side a little bit, and silently held the man's palm.

Ji Shennian was surprised by her sudden dependence, and after glancing at Qiao Xin and Tang Kai in the center of the crowd, he immediately retracted his gaze and stopped Tang Manman into his arms, "I found Lin Changsen, he was drinking upstairs." ”

"Brother Lin is in a bad mood, right?" Tang Manman leaned on Ji Shennian's body, felt the temperature on the other party's body, and apologized in annoyance, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault." ”

"Old. Wrong again? Ji Shennian raised his eyebrows, pinched her jaw and forced her to raise her dodging gaze, "You know about Qiao Xin's ex-boyfriend, and if you don't say it, it's because you care about your friend's privacy." ”

"I understand, and Lin Changsen understands, no one will blame you."

Tang Manman's eyes were red, since Tang Siyuan woke up, what she experienced the most was not being trusted. was questioned by the people closest to her, and the kind of discomfort and helplessness made her panic when she thought about it.

However, in front of Ji Shennian, she didn't have to say anything, but the other party gave her all her trust.

A warm current surged in his heart, and Tang Manman rubbed his sour eyes, "Thank you, Shennian." ”

"Fool." Hearing the trembling sound in her voice, Ji Shennian felt a pain in his heart, and touched her head with his big hand, "Say thank you to me, the lights will be on soon, I'm going to talk to Qiao Xin, you wait for me here." ”

Lin Changsen helped him and Tang Manman a lot before, but now it's time for him to return the favor.

"No, I'll go with you." Tang Manman knew what Ji Shennian planned to do, she rubbed her reddened eyes, and said seriously, "No matter what choice Qiao Xin makes in the end, she should know Brother Lin's intentions." ”

Tang Manman and Ji Shennian caught Qiao Xin outside the bathroom, and the other party had just escaped from the toasting crowd under the pretext of seeing them, and they were startled when they saw them at first glance, and they were relieved after seeing the people clearly.

"Manman, where have you been?" Qiao Xin rubbed his blushing face, "If you don't accompany me, those people who drink are simply lawless." ”

"Mr. Ji, thank you for breaking the fee this time, and I will work hard next year......"

"You don't have to thank me." Ji Shennian shook his head indifferently, "Everything today was prepared for you by Lin Changsen." ”

The smile on Qiao Xin's face stiffened for a moment, and he waved his hand casually pretending to be relaxed, "Manman, when will Mr. Ji also learn to tell cold jokes?" ”

"Qiao Xin, it's true." Tang Manman helped Qiao Xin and looked at her seriously, "Brother Lin wants to give you a surprise, and I'm worried that you won't agree, so I let Shennian use employee benefits as an excuse." ”

The two talked about everything Lin Changsen had done during this time, but cleverly avoided the "marriage proposal".

Although they wanted to help Lin Changsen, they also understood that it was more appropriate for the parties to "propose".

After Qiao Xin listened, there was no smile on his face at all, and his eyes, which were originally a little foggy from the wine, also became clear.

She didn't laugh it off as usual, nor did she turn around to find Lin Changsen, she just stood straight in place, and her expression didn't show too much emotion.

"Qiao Xin......" Tang Manman felt that Qiao Xin's reaction was wrong, and wanted to say something.

The man on the side interrupted her, "We've all said what should be said, let's go, I'm tired, go home." After speaking, without giving Tang Manman time to react, he pulled the person away.

All the way back to the Ji family villa, Tang Manman was still a little absent-minded, and even stepped on the stairs and almost fell down when he went upstairs, but fortunately, Ji Shennian had been following her, and he quickly caught her, which avoided her bad luck of wrestling.

"What are you thinking?" Ji Shennian didn't dare to let her go upstairs alone, so he had to escort her back to the room, "Still worried about Qiao Xin and Lin Changsen?" ”

Tang Manman subconsciously shook his head, but he thought that he had nothing to do, so he had to nod silently.

Looking at Qiao Xin's wordless appearance just now, she felt that Qiao Xin might not care about Lin Changsen as she showed. But why can't the two people who love each other be together, but they have to come to this point?

Later...... Will she and Ji Shennian be the same?

"We won't." The man's firm voice sounded in his ears, straight to the bottom of his heart, and the shocked Tang Manman's pupils trembled slightly, "Never like that." ”
