Chapter 149: Ling Xiaohan defends Leng Yuchen
"It's almost time to eat, since you and Siyi are here, let's stay for dinner." After looking at the time, Lin Meiyun invited the two gently.
"Okay, it just so happens that Siyi and I haven't had time to eat yet." Originally, she just knew that Ling Xiaohan was back, so she immediately hurried over with Lin Siyi to confirm that it would be good if she could stay and have a meal together.
At this time, the butler came and said respectfully, "Old lady, it's time to eat." β
"Okay, let's go to dinner." Lin Meiyun got up and greeted everyone, and then took Ling Xiaoran's arm and walked to the restaurant first.
Ling Xiaohan and Ling Xiaohan also got up and went to the restaurant together, and Yun Guanzhe followed the two of them, chatting and walking.
Lin Siyi's eyes quickly glanced around the figures of Yun Guanzhe and Ling Xiaohan, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she always felt that the atmosphere between the two people had a hint of intimacy.
Of course, she knew that Ling Xiaohan liked Yun Guanzhe, but she didn't fancy any of the objects of her recent blind date, if there was really no candidate at that time, she would unceremoniously attack Yun Guanzhe.
Anyway, Yun Guanzhe hasn't responded to Ling Xiaohan for so many years, she must still have a chance.
Thinking so, everyone has arrived at the restaurant, and everyone has taken their seats.
Ling Xiaohan and Ling Xiaonuan sat opposite Yun Guanzhe, and Lin Siyi quickly grabbed the seat next to Yun Guanzhe.
Noticing her movements, Lin Meiyun frowned slightly, but seeing that Lin Siyi didn't seem to mean it, it seemed that she was just sitting casually, so she didn't think about it deeply.
Ling Xiaonuan frowned slightly, and glanced at Lin Siyi without a trace, she had just noticed her action of grabbing the seat, and she didn't understand what she wanted to do?
Ling Xiaoran didn't notice this, and after taking the lead in taking a seat, he picked up his chopsticks and said in a deep voice: "Let's eat." β
"Okay." Ling Xiaohan agreed, and several people also sat down.
Dinner began like this, the elders and elders chatted about homely things, and the four juniors also chatted while eating, and the atmosphere of the restaurant looked pretty good.
Lin Siyi interjected a few words from time to time, but her eyes were always looking at Yun Guanzhe.
keeps scoring him in her heart, and he is indeed much better than her blind dates, whether it is his appearance or speech and demeanor.
Her eyes couldn't help but look at Ling Xiaohan, and she couldn't help but feel a trace of jealousy in her heart.
Why is Ling Xiaohan surrounded by such excellent men?
Even if Leng Yuchen is gay, he is also a diamond in the men's rank, and he is her fiancΓ©.
Even the person she has a crush on is so good.
But she didn't have such good luck, the man who pursued her, even if he was a son of a wealthy family, as long as he compared with these two people, he instantly became a crooked melon and a cracked date.
Ling Xiaohan didn't notice Lin Siyi's eyes, he just lowered his head to eat, and suddenly, in the disk in front of him, there was suddenly an extra piece of sweet and sour fish, accompanied by a warm voice: "Why don't you just eat?" β
Ling Xiaohan raised her eyes and saw the tenderness in Yun Guanzhe's eyes, and her heart warmed slightly: "Thank you, Brother Guanzhe." β
Yun Guanzhe's movements couldn't help but make everyone's eyes fall on him.
Lin Meiyun looked at him suspiciously, feeling a little strange in her heart.
Yun Guanzhe noticed everyone's eyes, and his body stiffened slightly.
He had just noticed that Ling Xiaohan hadn't spoken all the time, so he would serve her vegetables, but he ignored the others.
At this time, the plate in front of Ling Xiaohan was suddenly replaced, and an empty plate was placed: "Brother Guan Zhe, Xiaohan, she can't eat too sweet things these days, she has a toothache, she wants to eat more vegetables, and the fish will be mine." β
Ling Xiaonuan said with a smile, her movements were very natural, and before everyone could react, she had already solved the fish pieces.
Her words successfully rescued Yun Guanzhe's embarrassment, he glanced at Ling Xiaonuan gratefully, and gave Ling Xiaohan some broccoli: "Then you can eat more dishes." β
"Brother Guanzhe, what about me? You used to be the same for the two of us. Ling Xiao's warm eyes stared at him, and his gentle tone was mixed with a hint of grievance.
Yun Guanzhe quickly understood that Ling Xiaonuan was helping him out, and he immediately grabbed a piece of chopsticks and put fish meat into her disk: "I remember that you used to like to eat fish, I hope I remember correctly." β
Ling Xiaonuan showed a bright smile: "That's right. β
After the words fell, she lowered her head and continued to eat.
The suspicions in Lin Meiyun's heart were completely dispelled by Ling Xiaonuan's actions, and she couldn't help but recall that when Ling Xiaonuan and Ling Xiaohan were young, they followed Yun Guanzhe every day and were taken care of by him.
"It seems that Guanzhe's habit of taking care of them for so many years has not changed." Lin Meiyun quipped with a smile.
Yun Guanzhe smiled a little embarrassedly: "I can't change it for a while, but my aunt smiled." β
He quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but fortunately Ling Xiaonuan helped him smartly.
"That's a good thing, too." Lin Meiyun glanced at Ling Xiaonuan, and said in a good mood: "Let's eat, you don't seem to have eaten much, don't be polite." β
"Okay." Yun Guanzhe lowered his head to eat, restraining himself from making unnecessary movements.
Ling Xiaonuan saw that the suspicion in Lin Meiyun's eyes dissipated, and then he was really relieved, it was so dangerous, if his feelings for Ling Xiaohan were discovered, it would be troublesome.
Ling Xiaohan gratefully reached out and gently scratched Ling Xiaonuan's leg, but fortunately Ling Xiaonuan reflected it in time.
Seeing this, Ling Xiaonuan also patted the back of her hand helplessly, she felt that these two people were simply playing with an underground affair, and one was accidentally exposed......
"By the way, sister, brother-in-law, I heard from my mother, are you going to announce the marriage contract between the Leng family and the Ling family at the banquet?" Lin Meixia raised her eyes and looked at Lin Meiyun and Ling Xiaoran and asked.
At the mention of this incident, everyone was stunned, and Ling Xiaohan and Ling Xiaonuan were also surprised.
Although Ling Xiaoran and Lin Meiyun had mentioned that she and Leng Yuchen would meet, they didn't mention announcing the marriage contract!
Sure enough, Ling Xiaoran's face changed, and she looked at Lin Meixia with some dissatisfaction: "I have such an idea, but we haven't told Xiao Han yet." β
The implication is that she is somewhat blamed for saying this in advance, isn't Ling Xiaohan even more opposed to it now?
"Dad......" subconsciously wanted to say something, but Ling Xiaohan was held down by Ling Xiaonuan.
Secretly shook her head and told her not to say anything for the time being......
She always felt that Lin Meixia was strange, and she must have something to say when she mentioned this matter.
Ling Xiaohan quieted down and watched them talk honestly.
Everyone didn't notice that Yun Guanzhe's hand holding the chopsticks tightened.
But he still kept smiling and eating the food, as if no one could see what he was thinking.
Seeing that Ling Xiaoran was displeased, Lin Meiyun smiled like a flower, "I didn't expect my mother to tell you about this matter, it's just a unilateral idea between me and Xiao Ran, I don't know if the Leng family will agree." β
Speaking of the Leng family, the corners of Ling Xiaohan's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he prayed silently in his heart, expecting Leng Yuchen to come and cancel the marriage quickly.
Only then will she be able to escape.
"Huh." Hearing Lin Meiyun's words, Lin Meixia suddenly sneered, and a trace of resentment appeared in her eyes: "Sister, brother-in-law, do you still want Xiao Han to hand over to Leng Yuchen?" Don't you know that? β
"What's the matter?" Frowning slightly, she always felt that there was something in her words, and Lin Meiyun couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
Listening to his aunt's sarcastic words, Ling Xiaohan's heart thumped, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, after a while, Lin Meixia said sarcastically: "It is rumored that Leng Yuchen, the young master of the Leng family, is a homosexual and doesn't like women at all, don't hurt Xiao Han, I'm also doing this for her good." β
"What?" Looking at Lin Meixia in surprise, Lin Meiyun was a little surprised.
She didn't know anything about this, how could there be such rumors?
Knowing no bottom in her heart, she looked back at Ling Xiaoran.
Ling Xiaoran's sword eyebrows furrowed, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised that Lin Meixia would say such a thing.
Seeing that his parents were silent, Ling Xiaohan was looking at his aunt's smug eyes, and couldn't help but say depressedly: "Auntie, is there any evidence for what you said?" β
Lin Meixia was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Ling Xiaohan to ask like this.
Didn't she tell Lin Siyi about homosexuality? Where did she get the evidence?
"Uh...... There is no evidence, but I have heard that this matter is not far from ten. Lin Meixia said firmly, but she was a little suspicious of Ling Xiaohan's trouble.
She knew that Leng Yuchen was gay, why did she refute her now?
Seeing that his aunt was determined, Ling Xiaohan's eyes flashed with displeasure, and his voice was slightly cold: "Since you have no evidence and haven't seen it with your own eyes, don't talk nonsense." β
No one expected that Ling Xiaohan would suddenly defend Leng Yuchen.
Even Lin Meiyun and Ling Xiaoran were very surprised, Ling Xiaohan never wanted to get engaged, this was what they saw in their eyes, they didn't expect her to speak for Leng Yuchen......
Lin Meixia saw the coolness in her eyes, and immediately pursed her lips, not daring to say anything more.
Yun Guanzhe on the side, but in his heart, he felt that Ling Xiaohan's maintenance was a little weird, as if he knew Leng Yuchen.
"Whether this matter is true or not, I will send someone to investigate." Ling Xiaoran seemed to be very satisfied with Ling Xiaohan's maintenance, and then opened his mouth with a serious face.
He really wanted Leng Yuchen and Ling Xiaohan to be together, this was a marriage contract made by the elders, and it couldn't be easily canceled.
But he will still send someone to check, after all, even if he is in a hurry to marry his daughter, the premise is that Ling Xiaohan will be happy.
If Leng Yuchen really had a problem, then he definitely couldn't push his daughter into the fire pit.
"Dad, there's no need to investigate this, right?"
Ling Xiaohan frowned and retorted, she didn't want Ling Xiaoran to investigate Leng Yuchen.
If you have already hurt him, why slander him again?
If Leng Yuchen's matter is made public, he must be the one who will be hurt the most......
I don't know why, she just can't bear to be criticized by Leng Yuchen.
Ling Xiaoran glanced at her deeply, knowing that Ling Xiaohan was kind, but he still said in a deep voice: "I know you don't want to refute the Leng family's face, but if this matter is true, I will consider letting you cancel the marriage contract." β
Unexpectedly, my father, who had never agreed to withdraw from the marriage, suddenly promised to cancel the marriage.
Hearing this, Ling Xiaonuan on the side immediately pinched Ling Xiaohan and didn't let her say more.
