Chapter 181: The Banquet Begins

At 17 o'clock on August 12, Longjing International Hotel, Jing'an District.

Lu Jisheng walked into the hotel with his life under the flashing lights of the media.

From the large number of welcoming ladies at the door, it can be seen how much the Qin family attaches importance to this engagement banquet.

Even the red carpet under the feet of the guests is of the highest quality.

They met Jian Xichen and his wife in the pre-function area.

Sheng was very excited when he saw Fang Xiaolu, and after the two couples greeted each other, Sheng and Fang Xiaolu went to the sofa area of the lounge alone to chat.

Lu Jisheng and Jian Xichen, two men who had been temporarily abandoned, stood and chatted together in the welcome area, greeting familiar guests from time to time.

On the other side of the sofa area, students and Fang Xiaolu, a pair of old classmates who had not seen each other for a long time, sat side by side.

Sheng: "We haven't seen each other in a long time. ”

Fang Xiaolu: "Yes, you see that my belly is so big, and I have gained a lot of weight." ”

"It's fine." Gently touched Fang Xiaolu's stomach with a smile, "Prove that you eat well, and the child will be healthy~"

Since Fang Xiaolu was pregnant, Jian Xichen didn't have to do anything with her, and asked her to quit her job and stay at home to give birth with peace of mind.

Only the maid in the family can occasionally talk to Fang Xiaolu, so she has also held back a lot of things in her heart during this time and wants to find someone to talk to.

Fang Xiaolu frowned and sighed: "Oh, I've been worried about this for the past few days... I was a little fat before I got married, and you said what if I went back fat after giving birth! ”

Sheng: "You can go to the confinement center, I heard that some confinement centers can help with postpartum weight loss." ”

Fang Xiaolu's face was extremely cautious: "But isn't the confinement just a month?" Just after giving birth, I wonder if losing weight will affect breastfeeding? ”

"Well...... Sheng didn't have any relevant experience, she touched her chin and said, "I don't know, or let your husband hire a professional therapist for you." ”

At this time, a mature woman's voice appeared behind them: "Breastfeeding can make you thinner, but at that time, your in-laws should give you a lot of milk soup, and if you drink too much, you will gain weight." ”

Sheng and Fang Xiaolu looked in the direction of the sound together.

It's Gao Yawei.

The raw ones immediately became alert.

Fang Xiaolu didn't know Gao Yalu in the first place, and she was not defensive at the moment, so she naturally chatted with her.

"Milk soup? Will I have milk after drinking that? ”

Gao Ya smiled kindly, and then sat directly next to Fang Xiaolu.

Gao Yanu, who has already given birth, is very experienced in this area: "It seems that you didn't do your homework in the first few months of pregnancy, right?" Breastfeeding within 30 minutes after giving birth is best for your baby. ”

"Really?" Fang Xiaolu was shocked, "I still want to rest after giving birth......

Gao Yayu had a look of your too innocent expression and said, "How can I have time for you to rest?" I'll tell you..."

"Xiaolu!" Sheng took advantage of Gao Ya's chatter to drag Fang Xiaolu back, and whispered in her ear, "This person is not a good person, let's leave first." ”

Fang Xiaolu, who was just chatting, covered her mouth in surprise after hearing Sheng's words.

Looking at Sheng's expression of "I will never lie to you", Fang Xiaolu chose to believe her although she was a little hesitant.

"What's wrong?" Gao Ya stopped her speech, and she noticed the change in Sheng's face.

Fang Xiaolu: "I'm sorry, my husband just asked me to go back, and I'll talk about it again, bye." ”

Fang Xiaolu, who found Jian Xichen as an excuse, took the opportunity to pull Sheng away.

"What's the matter with that man?" Fang Xiaolu lowered her voice and asked.

"She is Liang Lihui's wife, and she has talked to me before. Jisheng told me that it was best not to get too close to the family at this engagement banquet. You should pay more attention now that you are pregnant! ”

"Oh......" Fang Xiaolu nodded as if she didn't understand.

"Yo, the two beauties are back." Jian Xichen saw the two of them from afar, smiling and waving his arms.

Lu Jisheng noticed the change in Sheng's face, and she was obviously not as happy as she was just now.

Jian Xichen hugged Fang Xiaolu, kissed her on the cheek generously, and then said, "Let's go, let's go sit down first." ”

He turned around and beckoned to Lu Jisheng and Sheng: "Let's go in first." ”

"Hmm." Lu Jisheng nodded.

After Fang Xiaolu and the others left, Sheng grabbed Lu Jisheng's arm and said, "Jisheng, we just met Gao Ya when we were chatting over there." ”

Lu Jisheng immediately became alert: "What did she tell you?" ”

"At that time, Xiaolu was talking to me about her pregnancy, and then Gao Yayu came over to talk. I remembered that Xiao Yu was almost kidnapped last time she came to talk to us, so I quickly pulled Xiaolu away. ”

"Yes, very crisis-aware." Lu Jisheng chuckled and praised her.

Sheng looked back at the direction of the sofa area with great concern, Gao Yayu had already disappeared.

"Let's go, let's go in and sit down." Lu Jisheng put his arm around her shoulder, "Don't look at it, the person has long been gone." ”

The order of seating for the guests was arranged in advance, and Lu Jisheng and Jian Xichen were not arranged at the same table.

There were even three tables between the two pairs.

Lu Jisheng noticed this problem as soon as he sat down, and obviously Jian Xichen also noticed it.

Jian Xichen, who took the seat first, seemed to be chatting with Fang Xiaolu, but in fact, he had been paying attention to every move of the people here.

He gave Lu Jisheng, who had just taken a seat, a color, and Lu Jisheng also gave him a knowing look.

Recently, Jian Xichen and Lu Jisheng have been cooperating more and more frequently in business, so deliberately separating the two, it seems that the Qin family has been wary of their alliance.

What's even more coincidental is that Liang Beiyao, Liang Lihui and Gao Yayu were arranged at Lu Jisheng's table.

Moreover, Liang Beiyao's position is still on Lu Jisheng's left hand side.

Sheng sat at his right hand.

Sheng was chatting happily with Lu Jisheng, and then suddenly saw Liang Beiyao swaggering next to him in a dazzling goose yellow dress.

As Lu Jisheng's rumored ex-girlfriend, Liang Beiyao gained a lot of attention as soon as he sat down.

Especially when Lu Jisheng still has his fiancée sitting next to him.

Gossipy guests are already whispering to them, and reporters are taking pictures.

Today's engagement banquet was originally intended to be for everyone to see, and Qin Haian naturally invited a lot of reporters to come.

"Good evening, Jisheng." Liang Beiyao's voice was charming and soft, and he greeted Lu Jisheng with a smile.

"Hmm." Lu Jisheng glanced at her lightly, and then turned his head back again.

Sheng grabbed Lu Jisheng's arm with possessiveness, and moved the chair a little to his side.

"Jisheng, do you remember when you took me to the banquet before, I would feed you fruit before the meal?" Liang Beiyao picked up a lychee in the fruit bowl and peeled it by himself.

"He doesn't remember." Sheng replied for Lu Jisheng, the voice was not loud or small, just three people could hear it.

Lu Jisheng held back a smile and pretended to be calm.

Liang Beiyao ignored her, but put the peeled lychee to Lu Jisheng's mouth: "Come, eat one." ”

Shengyan quickly took the lychee and put it in his mouth: "Thank you." ”

When Sheng reached out to get the lychee, Lu Jisheng thought that she was going to snatch it and feed it to herself, so she opened her lips slightly.

I didn't think she actually ate it herself.

Sheng saw Lu Jisheng's slightly open lips and thought that he wanted to eat the lychee that Liang Beiyao fed him.

So while eating, he looked directly into Lu Jisheng's eyes and said, "It's delicious." ”

"......" Lu Jisheng knew that she must have misunderstood.

Isn't it just a lychee?

So Lu Jisheng took a piece of paper from the table, put it in the palm of his hand, handed it to Sheng's mouth, and said:

"Come on, spit the nukes out here."

Hearing his gentle voice, the jealousy he had just felt immediately disappeared.

She obediently spit the lychee core onto the paper, then wrapped the napel herself and threw it into the trash can at her feet.

Liang Beiyao, who saw this scene, was very unhappy and uncomfortable.

Just as she was about to say something to Lu Jisheng again, the lights in the banquet hall went out.

As the light faded, the guests in the hall also fell silent.

"Distinguished guests, relatives and friends"

The master of ceremonies' voice resounded through the sound throughout the ballroom.

At the same time, the lights also gathered on the master of ceremonies, and I saw him wearing a black suit and a red bow tie, standing in the center of the stage. "Good evening, everyone! The bright moon shines on the two swallows, and the auspicious day sets a good fate. Today we ushered in the big day of the engagement of Miss Qin Haian and Mr. Jian Fan, here, first of all, on behalf of the parents of the two prospective couples, I would like to express my warm welcome and heartfelt thanks to all the relatives and friends for coming. ”
