Without thinking much about it, Ji Xian reached out and held Gu Chengyan's hand.

"Auntie."

Ji Xian's hand carried the softness and warmth unique to a child, Gu Chengyan couldn't help but tremble, and clasped her hands back.

"Ciel, I'm sorry."

Looking at her cautious appearance, Gu Chengyan realized that her grief had affected her.

"It's okay, auntie."

The girl's smile was sunny, dispelling the gloom of the room.

"Alright, the dinner party is about to begin, let's all go and get ready."

Gu Chengyan got up, clapped her palms, and tried her best to make a relaxed appearance.

"Hmm."

She should also go and see how Yu Bai's girl is, after all, she left her there alone, and she doesn't know if she has been recognized and embarrassed.

The two parted ways in the small building of the studio, and Gu Chengyan walked to her room on the third floor, where her room had an exclusive dressing room. Ji Xian quietly walked behind the kitchen.

"Oh, Chef Ye, don't worry about it, just say how about me as a carver? How do you feel about me? ”

The dishes at the dinner party could not be handed over to her little girl to make, so she thought of a roundabout way to solve all the dishes that needed to be carved.

showed off her carving skills a little, but she was unexpectedly recognized by Chef Ye, and at the moment she was struggling with whether to twist her to Ji Xian and say something.

Ye Chu already has half a head of gray hair, and he has a headache in the face of Yu Bai's relentless pursuit.

"Although I admit that you are a good carver, you are comparable to a few of my apprentices who have studied the art for many years. However, your unsolicited entry is a matter of character..."

Ye Chu glanced at her with some weakness and coughed twice.

"Ahem, so, I'm going to take you to Miss Ci'er to ask for an explanation."

Yu Bai saw that he didn't eat oil and salt, and he stomped his feet angrily.

"Hey, I said Old Man Ye, are you embarrassed to talk about character problems? Who the hell turned down my request to help the cook because I was a little girl? ”

"Isn't there a problem of character for people like you who directly deny people without looking at them to show them?"

It seems that he is really angry, and even Old Man Ye shouted out.

"This ,..."

Ye Chu turned around, how could this difficult girl look more and more like his little granddaughter? At every turn, he said that he was stubborn and called him Old Man Ye.

"Cough, forget it, seeing that you are a junior, let you go."

Waving his hand helplessly, Yu Bai and Yu Bai cheered happily.

"Haha, thank you Chef Ye, I will come again when I am free in the future, you must remember to make a convenient door for me when the time comes!"

Although I know that it is unlikely that I will come to the Gu family again.

Ye Chu shook his head, helpless against Yu Bai's ancient horse elf, looking at her back as she jumped away, Ye Chu fell into deep thought.

This child, who is dedicated to learning to cook at a young age, can see how much time and energy she has invested in this by looking at the cocoon scars on her hands, which is very surprising at her age.

Firm and studious, I really can't bear to let such a good seedling be buried, and Ye Chu's heart will inevitably be shaken.

"Alas, miss, please take a detour, the venue is being set up here."

Yu Bai excitedly changed his clothes and ran out, but found that he couldn't find Ji Xian, the Gu family was too big, and Ji Xian didn't tell her where she was.

I stumbled into the place where today's dinner was held.

There is a huge lawn between the right side of the main building of the Gu family and the artificial lake.

In the summer, the air is still hot, so it is chosen to be done outdoors.

Old man Gu doesn't like to socialize, only when Gu Chengyan got married for so many years, a group of celebrities in City C had the opportunity to come and talk a few words.

I didn't expect to make a big splash today, inviting all well-known families and political and business rookies in City C.

"What is the origin of this young lady named Ji Xian? If you don't have the surname Gu, isn't it the Gu family? An adopted daughter or something? ”

It was Huang Huilan, the wife of Huang Ya, a famous jade merchant in C City, who spoke, and at this time, most of the male guests were chatting in the banquet room of Old Man Gu, and the female relatives walked around the lake by the afterglow of the sunset.

"Mrs. Huang, you may not believe it, even I, a know-it-all in City C, don't know the origin of this young lady! It's like it came out of nowhere. ”

The wife of the president of the C City Lawyers Association, Wu Yuyan. The language is smiling, the person is beautiful and likes gossip, and he is nicknamed 'C City Know-it-all'. He runs several flower shops at home and is a drama actor himself.

"Huh? You don't know, this young lady is really mysterious..."

Huang Huilan was not very interested in Ji Xian, but she knew that she was not surnamed Gu, and Old Man Gu did not explain the identity of the protagonist of this banquet, so she was inevitably in crisis.

Old man Gu only has an only daughter and an adopted son, and his only daughter Gu Chengyan has been married for many years and has not let him hold his grandson and granddaughter, so Gu Yanshen has become a sweet spot in the eyes of everyone.

Her daughter is sixteen years old this year, and she has been walking around with the Gu family for a lot in the past few years, and if she can match these two children in two years, it will be a beautiful thing.

Huang Huilan's worries were fully understood by Wu Yuyan, she glanced at them with disdain, turned her head and sneered. The dignified Gu family in C City, even a cat and a dog like theirs dare to be a portrait!

If the old man Gu hadn't adopted this child, wouldn't she Huang Huilan have noticed the old man, thinking of her extremely flattering appearance in front of the old man Gu, Wu Yuyan couldn't help but shiver, hey~ disgusting!

"Yu Yan, what's wrong with you?"

Huang Huilan was puzzled, although the night breeze was slightly cool, both of them were wearing silk scarves, okay, why did she still have a cold war?

"Hehe, nothing..."

She has never been angry in front of outsiders, and she is delicate among noble ladies, which is also the origin of her 'C City Know-it-all'.

"Oh my God, it's her!"

"I didn't expect the Gu family to invite her here, but I don't know in what capacity..."

"It's so beautiful, it's a hundred times better than on TV!"

While the two were talking, there was a sudden commotion in the distance.

Ji Xianzheng instructed someone to tell Yu Bai to hide in the lakeside pavilion and wait for Yu Bai to come and find him.

I heard a few aunts by the lake who looked richly dressed, and you talked about the new guests from the Gu Mansion one by one.

"Pretty what?! The Gu family invited her to come, didn't they invite her to sing?! ”

"Hahaha! …”

Several of them laughed uncontrollably regardless of their image, and stared viciously at the men who were secretly looking at the gate, as if such an insult would make them feel better.

Well, if she's not mistaken, the only person she knows has made such a sensation has been...

"Hehe, when you see that others are more beautiful than yourself, you speak sourly, but it's really a little belly! Who doesn't see your jealousy! ”

"What's wrong with acting? What's wrong with the singing? People are veritable artists, unlike a few of you, who only know the stupid women behind the scenes! ”
