Chapter 82: The Calm Before the Storm

Ye Yiyi really stood in front of a dazzling array of desserts, her left and right hands opened her bow at the same time, and she didn't know that a small piece of cream was stuck to the corner of her mouth.

After eating, Ye Yiyi looked for Li Luo's figure in the field.

"How did it take so long?"

lifted the skirt and walked into the lively backstage, just in front of Li Luo, who was about to come out, "Hey? Yiyi, just now we were still betting on whether you were chatting with Xu Jiayang or eating. ”

Li Luo pulled Ye Yiyi next to everyone, and everyone stared at Ye Yiyi, waiting for her to announce the correct answer.

"I'm eating, starving. Didn't Xu Jiayang leave after singing, are you looking for him? She scratched her head and looked at everyone with a confused expression.

"What did I say, she must be eating." Murong Ran had an expression of "I'm right", although he was a little helpless, but it was more of a favor for Ye Yiyi.

Chu Xiao gave a thumbs up and nodded speechlessly, "Awesome!" ”

The engagement banquet that was originally full of etiquette was definitely shrunk by Murong Ran, and the unnecessary links that could be saved were gone, so everyone was bored and could only talk about topics together.

Many guests have made new friends from this dinner and met more powerful people.

To put it bluntly, it is ostensibly an engagement banquet, but in fact it is a huge information trading occasion, and the maximum benefits can be obtained from such a channel.

Murong Ran's parents are also troublesome people, and after a simple entertainment, they asked the waiter to help their son talk, and the couple prepared to go on a night tour on the riverside to be chic and happy.

"If I hadn't been thirty years old, I would have doubted that my parents would be able to give me a younger brother to play with next year."

After the waiter left, Murong Ran was embarrassed, and shook his head helplessly. After his parents left, it was always bad to have no host at the dinner, so Murong Ran took over his parents' task and led Ye Yiyi back to the hall to accompany the guests.

Chu Xiao took Li Luo and the slightly drunk cold words and found a private room to rest.

The three of them only cared about talking and laughing, and did not notice a person with a fierce face, quietly following behind them.

It's a smaller party hall with a fully equipped bartender station.

Chu Xiao stood in front of the bartender with a calm expression, focusing on the wine glass in his hand, his slender fingers holding the silver spoon with skillful gestures, and quickly stirring the ice cubes in the glass, but without making a sound.

He picked up the prepared amber wine, poured it into the glass slowly and evenly, and when the wine was two-thirds of the way in, he slowly lifted it, and quickly propped up the bar spoon and placed it above the rim, and the rich and smooth whipping cream flowed down the back of the bar spoon into the glass, floating on the surface of the wine like a feather.

Finally, she wears a crimson strawberry on the wall of the cup. The red of the strawberries, the brown of the wine, and the milky white of the whipped cream give a wonderful baptism to the eyes.

The wine was placed on the table, Li Luo found that the three people only had two glasses, looked at Chu Xiao dimly, and asked, "Why are there only two glasses?" I want it too. ”

"These two glasses are made for you, the alcohol content is not high, and the whipping cream dilutes the strong taste of the wine. It's right for you and it's good for your sick number. Chu Xiao explained indifferently, and when he talked about the sick number, he raised his chin slightly, pointing at the cold words that were covering his stomach.

Li Luo picked up the glass and turned it gently in front of his eyes, through the light, the wine color was sparkling, and when he first entered the mouth, the cream melted in his mouth, and the slightly bitter foreign wine blended with the sweet cream, and burst out with a magical taste.

"Leng Yan, it's really delicious for you to taste." Li Luo excitedly recommended it to Leng Yanshuo.

The man was originally leaning on the sofa and staring at the ceiling in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking, but when he was distracted, he heard Li Luo greet him, "Okay." ”

In the past, Chu Xiao always bartended at home, he seemed to have a talent, he could learn it, and Leng Yanshuo's amount of alcohol was practiced by Chu Xiao when he contacted bartending on a whim for a while.

Whenever he came home from work, there were always various varieties and colorful wines on the table, and if he didn't drink it, Chu Xiao would feed it to his mouth and force him to taste and appreciate it.

"Very good." Leng Yanshuo took a sip and said lightly.

"Chu Xiao, how can you mix bartending?" It was the first time that Li Luo knew that Chu Xiao could mix wine, and he was a little surprised for a while.

"I learned it in country M."

"Can you teach me?" The girl looked expectant, Leng Yanshuo reached out and grabbed her arm, and with a force, the girl fell into Leng Yanshuo's arms.

"Learn how to bartend with other men in front of me?" The man's deep eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze lingered on the girl in his arms for a long time.

Li Luo noticed the change in Leng Yanshuo's tone, hoarse and dangerous. raised his head and smiled and coaxed him: "I've learned to make it for you to drink!" ”

"He hates mixing wine the most." Chu Xiao opened his mouth to add.

"Why?" Li Luo looked at Leng Yanshuo suspiciously, but he looked at Chu Xiao expressionlessly.

His gaze followed Leng Yanshuo's direction, Chu Xiao made an innocent and aggrieved look, and his mouth was very cute.

"When I was studying before, I always asked Leng Yan to help me taste how it tasted, and there were a lot of things. Over time, he had enough to drink. ”

"Is the wine you made when you first learned it hard to drink?" The girl covered her mouth and snickered.

Chu Xiao shook his head decisively, saying that it was neither difficult nor delicious, and it was always almost something.

While discussing the fun of bartending, Ye Yiyi and Murong Ran came slowly.

"What are you talking about?" Ye Yiyi took Murong Ran's arm and swayed towards everyone.

"Nothing, the guests are gone?" Leng Yanshuo took over the conversation, but his eyes were looking at Murong Ran.

"It's almost all gone."

Sitting on the sofa, Ye Yiyi took off the disguise of this night and relaxed, slumped on the sofa and rubbed her stiff cheeks with a stiff smile, and her back, which had been held all night, was now lumped.

Murong Ran intimately lifted Ye Yiyi's feet and put them in his arms, and gently kneaded the sore feet that had been wearing high heels all night.

"Are you comfortable?"

"Uh-huh!"

Li Luo looked at the two of them who had been together for so many years and still looked like glue, and couldn't help but sigh a little, "You guys are really happy." ”

"You and Leng Yan also quickened their pace, and hurried to get engaged and get married." Ye Yiyi smiled evilly and cast a look at Li Luofei, and Leng Yanshuo, who was suddenly named, opened his half-squinted eyes, and he had been lying lazily on the corner of the sofa so uncomfortable, Li Luo was also leaning in his arms, so he had no intention of participating in the topic.

Li Luo smiled perfunctorily and said that it was too early, "Now the main thing is that Chu Xiao needs to find a girlfriend." ”

Feng turned around, and the topic was handed to Chu Xiao, and he shook his head indifferently and said, "I don't want to get married, and I don't want to fall in love." ”

"Why?"

"yes, why? It's lonely to be alone. ”

Facing his friend's question, Chu Xiao explained softly: "I think the relationship between men and women who do not have a certificate is just joking, to put it bluntly, it is a friend, which is boring." Don't think too much about it, this idea doesn't include you, but if it happens to me, I think so. ”

"That's because you haven't found the person you want to be responsible for." After Leng Yanshuo heard it, he immediately made a pertinent summary.

Murong Ran clapped his hands in agreement with Leng Yanshuo's point of view, and the two brothers tacitly raised the corners of their eyebrows.

Chu Xiao shrugged, "It's good to be single, free and unrestrained." If I had a girlfriend, I would have been scared to death when I saw it a while ago. I can't guarantee that my other half will accept everything from me, so it's better not to be uncertain and sad. ”

"Chu Xiao, are you okay now?" She has been busy with the engagement banquet in the past few days, and Ye Yiyi has not had a proper opportunity to greet Chu Xiao.

"Okay, thanks to Leng Yan and Ina, play bondage for me every day."

"Bundle?" Everyone snorted and laughed.

"Is it so funny?" Murong Ran looked at Leng Yanshuo and Chu Xiao in disbelief, turning back and forth on their faces.

"Add fun to a single life." Leng Yanshuo replied with a faint smile.

"Huh? Why can't I understand? Camels, do you understand? ”

Ye Yiyi had a question mark in her head, and looked at Li Luo suspiciously.

"I don't understand." Li Luo also shook his head like a cold voice seeking answers.

"It would save a lot of trouble to tie him up, and then Ina learned a more tedious winding technique, and we will have fun with this."

"Hmph, sometimes my drug addiction has passed for two hours, and before the cold words are unraveled, I just lie motionless and can't move, and the more I move, the tighter I go." Chu Xiao added, and a cold snort came from his nasal cavity, and his tone was very pitiful.

"Hahahaha, you're too pitiful!"

"yes, the only thing that kept me going at that time was to escape from Leng Yanshuo's fiddling!"

"Hahaha!" Ye Yiyi smiled exaggeratedly.

A figure appeared at the door of the party hall, the door was hidden, and the conversation inside could be faintly heard through the gap.

The man was wearing a black cap, his face was low and his head was lowered and he couldn't see clearly, and he was wearing a black casual sports suit on his body, hidden in the dark.

It was as if the man had a fruit knife in his hand, the blade of which was as wide as three fingers. Judging by the white fingertips of the knife gripping the hilt, the man was not a habitual offender, but like a novice, and it could be seen that the man was nervous and had been hesitating at the door.

The people in the room didn't know what topic they had restarted, and everyone laughed, and such a harmonious picture stimulated the ears of the people at the door.

She couldn't hold back any longer, and rushed to open the door, and due to the force, the door hit the wall behind it with a loud bang, so frightened that before everyone could react, they saw a man in black rushing towards them with a knife.

The tip of the knife was directly facing Ye Yiyi, the brim of the hat covered the light source on his head, and his face was hidden under the brim.

"To whom are you doing this happiness?"

The three men present put away their expressions when they heard the loud noise, stood up and looked at the door with a defensive expression, and when they saw the comer show their knives, they rushed to the two girls in unison and protected them behind them.

"Who are you?" Murong Ran asked solemnly.

I saw that the man with the knife slowly raised his head, and the light source shone into the face from both sides of the face, and under the brim of the hat was a face that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Murong Ran's first love: Jiang Meilin.

"Jiang Meilin? How are you? Ye Yiyi poked her head out behind the men, saw the man's face clearly, and exclaimed.

"Hehe, Miss Ye has a good memory, and she still remembers that it's me. Then do you still remember, this position of Mrs. Murong was originally mine! Jiang Meilin spoke sharply, completely out of proportion, without the arrogance of the day, and all that was left was to go crazy and break the jar.

"I've made it clear to you many times, why are you still entangled?" Murong Ran asked coldly.

"Entanglement? Hahaha! It's ridiculous, Murong Ran, you loved me and I didn't go away with a whip, what's wrong now? Serious about finding a replacement? Jiang Meilin's words became more and more excessive, and her eyes were staring with her teeth bared, which was really ugly and fierce.

Ye Yiyi was still thinking that Jiang Meilin was a little quiet during this time, but she didn't want to, this was just the calm before the storm.

Jiang Meilin has been waiting for this day for a long time, she really can't figure it out, what is Ye Yiyi better than her?

In terms of family appearance and talent, she Jiang Meilin won Ye Yiyi in everything.

And Murong Ran was firmly grasped by Ye Yiyi, she was unwilling to work hard to become so good, but Murong Ran lost interest.
