Chapter 190: Acting Skills (Part I)
Yasui Shin looked at Chen Rijin, who was sitting on the main seat, his face was uncertain, and his heart was dark.
The time of the reception banquet was set at eight o'clock in the evening, but now, it was only eight o'clock, and Chen Rijin's face was already terrifyingly black.
None of the doctors in the entire Tenth Courtyard dared to speak.
Only Yasui Shin here, pretending to be confused, with a flattering smile on his face, said, "Dean Chen, why don't we call Dean He again?" Maybe it's a traffic jam? ”
Sure enough, hearing this, Chen Rijin raised his chin, looked at him playfully, and said, "I'll call her?" ”
I'm afraid it's the other way around, right!?
Yasui said: "Either I'll fight, it's just ...... Dean He just arrived, and I don't know much about him, and I don't have his number......"
Wang Xing looked at Yasui Shin's embarrassed appearance and said, "Don't fight, we eat ours, everyone has worked hard recently." ”
Yasui said: "Yes...... But...... Who should come...... Haven't come yet...... This...... Not specifically for ...... Dean Ho's ...... Reception feast? Host...... I haven't come yet......"
When he said this, he deliberately bit the words not so accurately, showing that his Chinese was also lame.
It means that if you accidentally say something wrong, then everyone should be more patient, after all, the cultural differences are there, and there is no need to be serious.
"Someone who should come? Host? ”
Chen Rijin picked up the wine glass in front of him, rotated it back and forth with a few fingers, and looked at it repeatedly.
The last drink is gone.
"Yes, Dean Chen, you said it yourself, saying that Dean He is not here to be a guest. Otherwise, let's wait, you are all from the courtyard, and of course your own family doesn't matter. I'm an outsider, so I have to let Dean He see my sincerity, right? ”
He stopped at the point, and quickly pulled the topic away in three or two sentences, not continuing to dwell on it.
"But what if I say I'm hungry?" Chen Rijin poured himself another glass of sake, but this time, he finally looked at Yasui Shin.
You say you're hungry for the best!!
I'm just going to tick your anger out!!
Originally, I had prepared several sets of plans tonight, but I didn't expect this He Yuyu to be so ignorant, he was simply my strong teammate, and he assisted with strength!
How late is it for such an occasion!?
Moreover, there has been no word to bring it up to now.
It's really beautiful.
Yasui Shin looked at Chen Rijin, and the expression on his face seemed to make him the most worried person in this meeting.
What to do?
Chen Rijin's eyes, I feel like I am forcing myself to stand in line?
Then the next words are to grasp the balance. In short, a principle, when you see people, you talk about people, and you talk about ghosts. Since He Yuyu is not here, what he said earlier is enough, and next, it is time to save some face for Chen Rijin.
"Dean Chen, if you're hungry, it's naturally casual. No matter how big Dean He is, he can't be as big as you. If I'm going to starve you, I'm going to have a thankless night. Dean Chen, you have a little side dish first, here, I will introduce you to a few contemporary parents of the Onmyoji family, as well as some sect forces on our side. ”
Yasui Shin hurriedly went up and filled the empty wine glass that Chen Rijin had drunk again.
At this moment, he is completely in line with his image.
For the sake of himself, he kept nodding his head there, and at the same time, he tried his best to match the two sides.
Moreover, there is something to say, I said something that offended people, and I didn't know it.
In short, there was no problem at all.
It seems that he is a transparent person with some careful thoughts, but always inadvertently, all of them are exposed.
As for Chen Rijin, today's performance is too abnormal.
Usually she is not like this, whether it is talking or doing.
But in the eyes of Shin Yasui, all this can be explained.
Chen Rijin is actually still in control of the overall situation, but I don't know why, she was a little flustered about the arrival of He Yuyu, but she wanted to cover it up with a careless attitude. All in all, it is in line with Yasui's expected performance.
I used to introduce her to some characters from the Onmyoji family, when did you see her so serious?
Some people, she also asked her name several times, for fear that she would not be able to remember the rudeness.
Chen Rijin is such a person?
Especially later, when she introduced those local sect forces, she still had that stiff smirk on her face.
This is also saving face.
There was no expressionless "oh", and then a soft "eat and drink well" ......
Chen Rijin in this state, for Yasui Shin, can be described as a saint.
The people who were introduced by him all felt that Yasui Shin had a big face.
It is said that before, Chen Rijin was a person who did not eat oil and salt. They are already very satisfied with this level of being able to do so today.
At this time, it was already half past eight, and Chen Rijin's cup of wine was already empty and full, full and empty.
A light red began to slowly appear on her cheeks, and her eyes began to wander a little.
Yasui Xin looked at her appearance, and his heart was settled, not because he had other thoughts, but after a while, when He Yuyu arrived, it would be even more lively.
Although he had never met He Yuyu, he felt that no matter how arrogant the other party was, he would definitely not miss the appointment.
Of course, if you dare not come, it will be even more exciting.
There are so many people here tonight, and everyone is still hungry.
Some small sects don't even dare to move the fruit in front of them.
If this matter spreads, Chen Rijin's face will be "snapped" by his own people.
He saw that Chen Rijin's wine glass was empty again, so he pulled a young man forward and poured her wine, and introduced her to a familiar face by the way.
At this moment, a young man dressed as an onmyoji hurriedly pushed the door in.
Originally, the whole hall was very quiet, after all, in this main hall, there were still a little bit of identity and status, and they would look at their faces, and when they saw Chen Rijin, they were obviously extremely unhappy but they had to pretend to be very tolerant and generous, and they all regarded themselves as a Buddha statue, talking less, moving less, and trying to reduce their sense of existence.
Yasui Shin frowned, these people were all brought out by themselves.
If nothing big happens, it will never be like this.
And the people of the entire Ten Courtyards are all here, what other moths can come out?
Japan's local forces have always been relatively united, and the Onmyoji family is dominant, which can basically be seen as a microcosm of the entire shadow circle.
It is easy to understand that Japan is compared to the whole world, and that Onmyoji is compared to the inner courtyard.
What can happen in this case?
As soon as the onmyoji broke into the hall, it only took a second to find Yasui Shin's figure, but after taking two steps, he found that he was pouring wine for Chen Rijin, and it seemed that he was hesitating whether to step forward.
Yasui Shin saw his anxious appearance, and after pouring a full wine for Chen Rijin, he showed a sincere smile, and took the young man to leave, he had to go and ask what was wrong.
The financial strength of the Onmyoji, that is beyond doubt.
The layout of the entire main hall is also quite stylish.
Not to mention spacious, it also makes it antique.
On the main seat, there are only three separate small coffee tables.
Chen Rijin is in the center, Yasui Shin is on the right, and the empty one on the far left is naturally left for He Yuyu.
The rest of the people, too, were not gathered around a large round table. Instead, it is divided into several columns, and each person has his own small table. It's like the ancient dynasty.
The young man wondered, could it be that a big man like Nobu Yasui still sent himself back to sit down?
Just as Yasui Shin turned around, Chen Rijin suddenly stood up.
This time, all the eyes of the audience were attracted.
This is the first time Dean Chen has stood up tonight.
Then, Yasui felt his right wrist being grabbed by a hand.
He turned around, saw that Chen Rijin was slightly drunk, pulled him to his place, and picked up his wine glass......
Poured him a glass of wine with your own hands?!
His expression was like a ghost.
Chen Rijin held his own wine glass in his left hand, handed him another wine glass with his right hand, and then looked a little unsteady on his feet, stumbled, and actually pounced forward.
This time, Yasui Shin hurriedly went to help.
It's just that the wine in the wine glass is a little spilled.
Chen Rijin seemed to be very dissatisfied, squatted down again, filled the two wine glasses, handed them to Yasui Shin again, and said, "Respect you!" ”
Then, before Shin Yasui came to his senses, he actually did it in one go!
After she finished drinking, she seemed to feel that something was wrong, and said, "No! Haven't clinked glasses yet! ”
After saying that, he poured himself full again, and then stretched out the cup to Yasui Shin, touched it lightly, and took another sip.
Everyone, including Nobu Yasui, was stunned.
However, Nobu Yasui also reacted very quickly.
This is the first time Dean Chen has toasted himself!
And the two cups are done first as respect, and they are already in the stomach!
Two cups for one cup!
He doesn't think he has this face!!
So he immediately drank all the wine in his glass.
"Dean Chen, are you alright? Someone came, Dean Chen's tea is cold, hurry up and change it. Dean Chen, come, sit down and have a cup of tea. Hey, they are all engaged in medicine, Dean Chen, you should also know that it is not good to drink so much wine on an empty stomach...... This...... This Dean He is really ...... I can't stand it anymore as an outsider......"
He helped Chen Rijin back to his seat and sat down.
Chen Rijin said: "What is this little wine? That one...... Mika Nishiyama...... Kei Asakura...... Shuji Matsushita...... Manako Minakami ...... How many of you say...... I drink this little wine...... Questions? ”
The few people who were named were all the leaders of the Onmyoji family who had been introduced by Yasui Shin before, and they were all very excited when they heard Dean Chen call him, and none of his names were wrong, and they immediately stood up and said, "Dean Chen has a good amount of alcohol!" ”
"Hmph...... She He Yuyu ...... What is it...... I won't ask the people in the Tenth Academy...... I brought them out, so I'll ask you...... Here are the ten courtyards...... Who has the final say...... Hey, hey, hey......" Chen Rijin picked up the wine glass again and poured it for himself, "Huh? Where's your wine glass? Come on, come on, I'll fill it for you! Don't think I've drunk too much, you still owe me a glass! ”
Yasui Xin said: "Yes, yes, Dean Chen, you have a good amount of alcohol, and of course you have the final say." This reception feast hasn't started yet, so let's drink less? ”
He said this, but in his hand he obediently took his own wine glass.
Of course, this time he was pouring wine, and he had already seen that Chen Rijin was already starting to pour wine into the bowl......
Today this sake ...... There's a lot of stamina...... She was so drunk again...... It's only been a little over half an hour.
"Hehe, you have a vision...... Do you know why she He Yuyu dares to be so arrogant? ”
Yo!? Drunk and spit out the truth!?
There's an inside message from the courtyard!?
Seeing that Yasui Shin didn't speak, Chen Rijin grabbed the hem of his clothes and pulled hard, and Yasui Shin also fell to the ground, very cooperative.
Chen Rijin sat like a ruffian at this time, and said, "We have been discussing ...... Here the directors of the Twelve Houses these positions...... Have you ever wondered...... The position of this dean...... Who is it for? ”
Yasui said, "No...... Not...... Didn't think ......"
"Fart! Probably haven't thought about it? Penalty ......"
Chen Rijin said this, but he drank it.
Nobu Yasui hurriedly drank all the wine in his cup.
At this time, all eyes of the entire hall were focused on the two of them.
Because what Chen Rijin wants to say from his mouth may be very sensitive information!
Dean Chen's eyes were like torches, and he saw it, but he thought about it...... Could it be Dean He...... Oh!! Isn't it ......."
Yasui Shin showed an expression of sudden realization but did not dare to say anything further.
Chen Rijin said: "Hmph, what is her thoughts...... That's it...... I have been casually perfunctory for two years...... Wait for the 12 courtyards to be built...... He patted his ass and left...... When the time comes...... Which courtyard do you listen to......
Nobu Yasui smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to answer.
How could we onmyoji listen to your inner courtyard? There shouldn't be any courtyard.
Chen Rijin patted his head and said, "I said...... Wrong words...... Punish yourself with a glass...... You onmyoji...... ...... with us It's a partnership...... Wrong...... That's wrong...... Punish yourself with a glass...... Oh...... No, three cups ......"
As she spoke, she stood up, holding the wine glass in one hand and the wine bottle in the other, directly facing the camp on the Onmyoji's side, and raised the cup Haruka.
At this moment, all the onmyoji stood up.
Although Chen Rijin's words were a little arrogant just now, they immediately apologized, and got up to punish themselves with three cups, this face, all the onmyoji must give it!
Then, everyone drank three glasses in a row, and the speed was so fast that it was jaw-dropping.
At this time, Chen Rijin's hand was still raised in mid-air.
"What!? Why are they all so ignorant?! Dean Chen said that he would punish himself with three cups, so can he count? You've all drunk it first, so what's that? Isn't it equivalent to admitting that Dean Chen said the wrong thing? Hey, Dean Chen, don't drink it, my people are not sensible, I'm already worried enough, if this spreads, everyone will say that I poured you wine. ”
"Refreshing! Readily! That one...... You...... The one who blew the bottle just now...... Come here......"
The young man, who looked to be in his twenties at most, could still guess a thing or two, although he didn't understand the phrase "blowing a bottle". And at this time, Chen Rijin stared at himself and pointed at himself with one hand.
He stood up and whispered, "Hello Dean Chen, my name is Seiichi Koike, and I am currently ......."
"Good! That's you! Lad! Blow a bottle for my show! The position of the vice president of the 12th Academy! It's yours! I think you're very pleasing to the eye! ”
