Chapter 309: Collective Lying
Although there was such a small episode, there were no accidents after that, and the family banquet finally kicked off in Ji Yan's anxiety.
Everyone sat in their respective positions, quietly turned their heads to look at the few people on the main seat, and waited for them to finish speaking as usual before moving the chopsticks, which was the rule of the Lu family banquet.
"The Lu family has encountered a lot of things this year, but fortunately, they all ended in a thrilling end. I hope that this is not only the case now, but also in the future. The second master stood up with his wine glass, and said in a serious tone, "Everyone here is from the Lu family, although some of them are remote, but this can't change the blood of the Lu family flowing in your body. I believe that as long as we are united and work towards the same goal, there is nothing that cannot be solved! ”
Ji Yan, who listened to this long speech similar to the director when he was in school, was a little speechless, and suddenly looked at Lu Tingshen next to him, but found that he was looking at a certain place with a faint face, and he was not listening at all.
"In addition, I also plan to find a partner for some boys and children of the Lu family who have reached the right age, no matter how the relationship is, you only need to remember one sentence, love and marriage are two completely different forms. You can put all your thoughts on love, but after getting married, you have to put your mind more on your family, and I hope someone will not confuse these two things. ”
After speaking, he asked people to take out the gifts and red envelopes that had been prepared long ago for people to send down.
When it was sent to Lu Tingshen, he even gave her a copy.
Ji Yan pinched it, looked at the big round box in his hand again, and was a little curious about what it was, but in the end he didn't say anything, and very obediently presented the two things to Lu Tingshen with both hands.
"I think it's better for you to take care of these things."
He didn't look at it, then threw it aside and put it in the empty place, and said lightly, "I'll open it when I go back, and eat something first." ”
The family feast and the food they had eaten before were two completely different concepts, whether it was because of these dishes that made people appetize when they saw them, or because of the real purpose of the family feast, they had to eat a little bit so as not to be remembered.
Ji Yan snorted, followed his movements to pick up the vegetables, and ate them in small bites. Seeing that they were talking, they just sat quietly on the side, and occasionally looked at Lu Tingshen with an almost adoring look, which was very in line with their newlywed couple's personality, but no one saw anything wrong.
There was enough food to eat in one meal, and when she got off the table, Ji Yan felt that everyone was relieved like her.
After the dinner party, it was normal social time, and several people had rushed to Lu Tingshen's position, and this kind of person's general opening sentence was to ask Lu Tingshen for advice on work.
"Hello Mr. Lu, hello! I didn't expect to meet here, I've heard of you for a long time, but I've never had the chance to meet me, and I didn't expect to be able to sit in the same place with you today! Is there something I would like to ask you about the announcement? I don't know if Mr. Lu has this time......"
Sure enough.
Ji Yan stood behind her and looked at the group of people walking in groups, touching her chin thoughtfully, she still didn't understand what the situation was on the side of the old mansion.
Every time she felt she could see clearly, another hand would send another wave of mist.
"My wife is not feeling well, I'm sorry." Lu Tingshen casually found a reason and left the main hall with her, and took the two gifts sent by the second master as New Year's money.
When he got back to the room, he simply and rudely took the two things apart and looked at them with a glove of seriousness.
Looking at the pile of crumbs on the table that had been opened and saw the contents of a check and a set of foreign skin care products, Ji Yan fell into deep thought, "Is your second master a very poor and vicious person?" ”
Why did she feel that Lu Tingshen's attitude towards other people was completely different from that towards him, as if she was afraid of something.
He took his things and carefully checked them a few times to make sure that there was no problem before taking off his gloves, "He is not as innocent and harmless as he seems on the surface, in fact, there are many things that the Lu family cannot come forward to solve by him." It can be said that the Lu family has two top leaders, one is responsible for dealing with the open, and the other is responsible for dealing with the secret. ”
One of the leaders who didn't come was his father, and the second master was the second.
The Lu family's business seems to be very simple, but anything that involves interests cannot be too simple, but many people don't understand it.
Ji Yan was taken aback by him, and realized the reason why he was so nervous, "Are you worried that that ear will also attack me?" Can...... This should be the first time we have met, and today I feel that you are very wrong, and he should not have just told you about the third young master when I was resting, right? ”
And there is obviously something about her in the things they said, otherwise Lu Tingshen would not have been so vigilant about gifts and red envelopes.
Seeing that he was silent, Ji Yan's curiosity in his heart became even greater.
"What the hell did you say? Since it's something related to me, it's a matter of course to tell me about it. If one day you get hurt because of that so-called second master, and I don't even know who did it, do you want to see such a thing happen? ”
Lu Tingshen picked up his mobile phone, didn't answer or look at her, and said calmly, "I still have some things to deal with, so you can stay here and don't move around until I come back." ”
He didn't plan to tell Ji Yan about the divorce and his lover, not only because it was unnecessary, but also because it was simply impossible.
Ji Yan didn't know what he was thinking, and looked at his hurried back as he left without saying a word. When I picked up my phone, I saw that there was not much left before the agreed time.
……
Bai Yin was playing billiards, and he was a little surprised when he suddenly received a call from Lu Tingshen, so he casually put the cue on the table, and said lazily at the mobile phone raised by the waiter, "Aren't you supposed to be attending a family banquet at this time?" Why do you have time to call me, it stands to reason that the warm jade is warm and fragrant, it shouldn't be like this. ”
He took a big sip of the whiskey next to him, and some of the wine didn't fully enter his stomach, leaving it along the corners of his mouth, only adding a little ambiguity.
"You got a call?"
This call certainly doesn't mean that he called, so there is only one possibility left.
"It's still early, there are still ten hours before the time we agreed, and she has the right to reverse at any time during these ten hours." Bai Yin yawned as he spoke, he hadn't rested for a long time in order to be busy with his family's affairs, "Instead of calling me to ask, it's better to make it clear to Ji Yan face to face." ”
People are by his side, and they use a cold phone call to ask the answers of the people around them, so it's better to run to her directly, why waste time going around and around?
Lu Tingshen's eyes sank, and his tone was very gloomy, "I said that I would give her the absolute right to choose, so I will not interfere in this matter." ”
Hearing this, Bai Yin couldn't help laughing, "The right to choose, it sounds really decent." It's hard to say that it's good to sound like it, if Ji Yan really decides to help solve this matter, when that time comes, will you just let her do it? ”
Anyway, he felt that it was suspenseful, and the possibility was very small, but no one was sure if it happened.
"It's just your guess."
He took his phone and walked around the room, "It's because I know what kind of person you are, that's why I have such a guess." Call me again in ten hours, and I haven't heard anything yet. What you should do now is how to deal with the old men in the old house with fixed minds, instead of worrying about what hasn't happened yet. ”
After the two hung up the phone, a man walked in through the door, holding a small miniature pistol in his hand, which was dark but glowing faintly in the light.
"We've got things in place, and now we're missing an answer."
Bai Yin nodded, took it and looked at it, and couldn't put it down for a while before picking up the handkerchief next to him and wiping it, "I believe she will give us a satisfactory answer, just clear the crisis ahead for her before that." I don't believe that they can watch Ji Yan being hurt and be indifferent, this is undoubtedly a big gamble, and I must be the one who wins the gamble in the end. ”
The person who came agreed with his words, but still hesitated, "If this matter is known to Mr. Lu......"
Bai Yin interrupted him, "You'd better not be here Crow's Beak, our chrysanthemum may have been in development for hours before he knows it, and it is impossible to stop us unless he is clever." ”
He also didn't want to deceive Lu Tingshen, after all, there was still a layer of kinship between them, so there was no need to make too much trouble. But this time the matter may be a bit serious, so serious that even he can't wait for Ji Yan to come forward to solve it.
"As long as the matter of my family is over and the people over there come back safely, I will personally take something to the door to apologize."
After wiping the spotless mini pistol even cleaner, Bai Yin put it back in place and looked thoughtfully at a certain place.
……
Lin Wan'er was busy with the Yin people, and she was a little behind even with the news, and it took several days to learn about the Lu family from Si'er.
"When did this start?"
The subordinate said honestly, "It's been a while, it happened about two weeks ago, but they hide it well, and Young Master Si'er has only received the news recently." ”
Although they immediately uploaded the message as soon as they received it, it was still a step too late.
"Damn! If I had taken advantage of such a great opportunity, it would have been completely different! She slapped the table angrily, and asked unrelentingly, "There is such a big thing, it is impossible for Lu Tingshen to be inactive." Try to check his movements, and you can't let it go if you can use it! ”
The subordinate shook his head with a bitter face, "After receiving this news, we have launched an investigation, and we have been keeping people staring at them, but there is no news." ”
