Xiao Liyan immediately understood and nodded slightly, "I do things in a measured way. ”

"If you were measured, I wouldn't have called you back." Old Man Xiao sighed, sat on the sofa and took a sip of tea, "You two are both from the Xiao family, you have to think carefully about what others will say about our Xiao family before you do anything, the name of this marriage change is really not very good." ”

Lin Runing lowered his head slightly, very well-behaved, "What Grandpa said is that we know it's wrong." ”

"In the future, both of you will have to give me a good restraint." Old Man Xiao continued, "Actually, there is another thing to call you back this time, there will be a family banquet in a few days, so prepare well." ”

Hearing this, Lin Runing suddenly became a little nervous.

According to the previous rules, almost everyone in the Xiao family would come to the family banquet, and there were only a few Xiao family members she had seen, and she would definitely meet many people she didn't know, and she was nominally Xiao Liyan's wife, so it would inevitably become the focus of discussion in the audience, and she had a headache when she thought of that embarrassing scene.

Noticing the change in her mood, Xiao Liyan raised her eyebrows, "Scared?" ”

After being out of Old Man Xiao's line of sight, Lin Runing let go of his arm and kept a slight distance intentionally or unintentionally, "It's just a family banquet, what do I have to be afraid of." ”

"Yes." Xiao Liyan chatted with her casually, "It's easier than filming." ”

As they spoke, they went into the bedroom, which had been prepared long ago.

Lin Runing didn't speak, and fell on the bed full of exhaustion, adjusting a comfortable position to lie down. The windows in the room were ajar, so quiet that you could hear the wind blowing past your ears.

Xiao Liyan stared at her for a while, and suddenly broke the silence, "Mrs. Xiao is so engrossed, are you thinking about your partner lying in the hospital?" ”

Lin Runing was a little speechless, because Lin Nian's heart was still on fire a few days ago, so he simply followed his words and said, "Mr. Xiao's mind reading skills are really powerful." ”

"Thanks for the compliment." Xiao Liyan's face was expressionless, his jawline was tight, "He did save you this time, according to Mrs. Xiao's character, do you want to be moved to make a promise?" ”

The irony of this sentence Lin Runing heard it clearly.

When she was rescued from the lake by Xiao Liyan before, she once joked about making a promise to each other, but she didn't expect to be returned by him now.

She lowered her eyes to cover the emotions in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, "If Mr. Xiao doesn't mind, this method of repaying kindness is not impossible." ”

As soon as the words fell, she was pressed on the bed by Xiao Liyan.

He lowered his head, his inky hair hanging down, and he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but the whisper in his ear was scorching, "You dare." ”

Xiao Liyan bit her earlobe and repeated, "You dare!" ”

"Naturally, I don't dare." Lin Runing looked at him, with a hint of anger in his words, "Since you know that I don't dare, why does Mr. Xiao always have trouble winning with Guan?" ”

Before coming to the old mansion, what Xiao Liyan and Guan Ying said in the ward, she could probably guess it. Obviously just friends, she didn't want to involve any innocent people.

"How." Xiao Liyan's face was cold, and he picked up her chin with his fingertips, "Distressed?" ”

Lin Runing's delicate eyebrows were tightly twisted, and he turned his head sideways to avoid his confinement and did not speak.

She has already said what she should say before, looking at Xiao Liyan's meaning, if she continues on this topic, it will only become darker and darker.

The time of the family banquet was scheduled for the morning two days later, and in the past two days, Old Man Xiao would call Xiao Liyan over when he was free, and she was quite clean when she was alone, Lin Runing didn't know how many times she had participated in this kind of banquet, but it was the first time she had seen such a big pomp as the Xiao family.

As the first to arrive, she and Xiao Liyan sat next to Old Man Xiao respectively, and the rest of the people lined up one after another, Lin Runing looked around, there were indeed many fresh faces, and after less than twenty minutes, only Li Manwen was left who had not arrived.

Old Man Xiao attaches the most importance to the concept of time, and it is inevitable that he will be a little unhappy sitting there, but Li Manwen is Xiao Liyan's mother, and it is really difficult for others to say anything.

I don't know how long it took, when Lin Runing felt that the food in front of her was not hot, Li Manwen was late, wearing a slightly high-profile cheongsam, the big waves fell on her shoulders, her steps looked elegant and capable, and behind her, there was a woman.

Li Manwen's position was next to Xiao Liyan, and she went straight over and sat down, "I'm really sorry for making everyone wait so long, Dad, you won't blame me, right?" ”

She turned her head to look at Old Man Xiao with a decent smile on her face. Old Man Xiao waved his hand expressionlessly, "Just let the people come." ”

"Thank you dad for your magnanimity." Li Manwen got up and poured a glass of wine for Old Man Xiao, but his eyes fell on Lin Runing intentionally or unintentionally, "Today I want to introduce you to someone." ”

She looked at Xiao Liyan, took the hand of the woman next to her and patted it twice, "This is Tang Feifei, you should have seen it before." ”

Tang Feifei pursed her lips, with a somewhat shy smile on her face, "Mr. Xiao is good, Grandpa Xiao is good." ”

Xiao Liyan subconsciously glanced in the direction of Lin Runing, and sat there with a calm face, without any reaction.

Lin Runing understood that Li Manwen brought Tang Feifei over today because the drunkard did not mean to drink, nominally to participate in the family banquet, but actually wanted to get close to Xiao Liyan, which can be described as a deep scheming.

She lowered her eyes to hide the emotion in her eyes, and lowered her head to take a sip of wine.

After all, it is his own son, Li Manwen understands Xiao Liyan's temper, and he is not annoyed when he sees his reaction, and continues, "At the beginning, you kept saying that you liked people in the entertainment industry, I think Fei Fei is just right for you, a talented woman." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Liyan's fingers on his knees tapped again and again.

In the past, in order to escape Li Manwen's forced marriage, he casually said that he liked people in the entertainment industry, but it happened that Lin Runing had just developed at that time, and half of his feet stepped into the circle, so he deliberately found Lin Runing to get married, in order to take the name they needed.

Old Man Xiao twisted his eyebrows and coughed lightly, "What do you do with the family banquet?" ”

"Take care of the house." Li Manwen looked at Lin Runing meaningfully, "Naturally, we have to take advantage of everyone's presence, not to mention that we still have a big star here, the news some time ago can make everyone uproar, it's really a shame for the Xiao family!" ”

The people in the entertainment industry here are Lin Runing except for Tang Feifei, which is almost not clear.

Lin Ru sat there quietly, as if he hadn't heard the words.

This is Xiao Liyan's mother, no matter how ugly she says, she can only endure it, not to mention that in front of so many Xiao families, she can't live without a stomach.

Noticing the change in her mood, Xiao Liyan's brows tightened, "Mom, are you saying that I am ashamed?" ”

"Whoever says it knows in their hearts." How did Li Manwen see how Lin Runing was unpleasant, "Sitting there as a dumb person is all that is the ability." ”

Lin Runing bit her lower lip and turned white, and just as she was about to speak, she heard Old Man Xiao's voice, "Good family banquet, look at what you all look like?" When this old bone doesn't exist? ”

"It's not." Li Manwen restrained a little, "Dad, although it doesn't sound good, but what I'm saying is the truth, where is the surname Lin worthy of our Xiao family, it's just a shameful joke outside, I think Li Yan should be divorced!" ”

Xiao Liyan's face was gloomy, and the aura around her body was a little colder, "Except for her, no one can be worthy, according to Mom's reasoning, then she is also a drama?" ”

His eyes looked in Tang Feifei's direction, meaning something.

Li Manwen was stunned for a few seconds, and then her face was even more ugly, "How can she be compared to our Fei Feibi?" ”

Xiao Liyan pulled her up from her seat, "I don't think Tang Feifei has anything special. ”

As soon as the words fell, he pulled Lin Runing out.

Li Manwen turned sideways to block their way, "Grandpa hasn't left yet, you can't leave the table." ”

Xiao Liyan looked at her at each other, without the slightest intention of backing down, "If the family banquet is such a mockery, then don't wait." ”

After speaking, he directly held Lin Runing's fingers and walked around from the side.

It's quiet outside, most people are taking care of the family banquet, Lin Runing let him take him out, Xiao Manwen's words just now are still hovering in his mind, and his heart is inexplicably a little sour, just like a few years ago.

Xiao Liyan walked with her to the lake in the garden, watching the lights sparkling in the water, "Don't mind what you said just now. ”

"How could I mind?" Lin Runing reluctantly hooked the corners of his mouth and leaned in front of Xiao Liyan, his eyes lit up, "Think about it from another angle, those words are also true." ”

The distance between them was very close, and Xiao Liyan could even smell the faint aroma of wine on her body, "Which sentence is?" I don't think so. ”

As he spoke, he tentatively approached the position of Lin Runing's lip flap.

Lin Runing retreated slightly, her eyes were like silk, "That Tang Feifei is good, it looks like the type that President Xiao likes." ”

As she spoke, she tugged at Xiao Liyan's tie, "Such a good opportunity, don't you think about it?" ”

Xiao Liyan looked at her quietly and did not speak.

Lin Runing didn't mind his silence, and leaned on his shoulder, "Mr. Xiao has to learn to seize the opportunity, maybe once our five-year agreement passes, maybe Mrs. Xiao's position will really be given to Tang Feifei?" ”

After saying this, Xiao Liyan grabbed her wrist violently, "Lin Runing, you can't wait to leave me so much?" ”

"Mr. Xiao, where is this?" Lin Runing looked at him, the emotions in his eyes were obscure, "Isn't what I said the truth?" That day will come sooner or later, if you don't decide now, Mr. Xiao won't regret it anymore. ”

Xiao Liyan's eyes darkened, and he pressed her against the fence violently, and kissed her.

Lin Runing drank some wine, and there was a faint aroma of wine between his lips and teeth, as if he could get him drunk like this, and couldn't help but deepen the kiss, with a strong sense of punishment.
