Chapter 42: The Prologue to the Dinner Party
This very embarrassing atmosphere for He Mulan eased with the appearance of both parents.
He Mulan finally found a reason to leave Feng Anyan's control, she immediately put on a well-behaved appearance, and hurriedly went to greet Master Feng and Lin Yuru.
"Uncle Feng, Aunt Yuru." He Mulan walked over and said.
Lin Yuru patted He Mulan and praised: "Mu Lan is really naturally beautiful, her figure is so good, and she looks so good in an elegant dress." ”
"Auntie has won the prize." He Mulan lowered her head embarrassedly, but suddenly realized that Yu Panning didn't know where to go.
She looked around a little anxiously, but saw Feng Anyan coming over.
"Looking for your friend?" Feng Anyan could see at a glance that she was in a hurry, and he pointed in one direction, "She's there." ”
He Mulan looked over, and sure enough, he saw Yu Panning sitting quietly in a corner drinking a drink, and he didn't look very nervous.
He Mulan breathed a sigh of relief, walked over and pulled Yu Panning to introduce it to the elders.
Yu Panning greeted them one by one very politely, and then returned to the corner and continued to sit quietly, He Mulan felt that she was a little too quiet, although Yu Panning was usually very quiet, but she didn't think much about it, and obediently listened to the chatter of the parents on both sides.
"An Yan, you take Miss He to play, we adults can just talk here." Lin Yuru said, Feng Anyan said goodbye, took He Mulan's hand and left, and found a place where there were not many people to sit.
Before the banquet began, people kept coming in at the door, most of them were extraordinary men with female companions, and those female companions were all with excellent temperament and figure, and some of them made He Mulan look ashamed.
"Those women are used to this kind of scene and know how to make themselves look the most attractive." Looking at these people who came in, Feng Anyan explained to He Mulan.
He Mulan stuck out his tongue, was this comforting himself?
"However, there are also some strong women in this circle, and their temperament is different from others at first glance." Feng Anyan said, He Mulan nodded in agreement, indeed, some women have a fierce temperament, which makes people feel afraid at first glance.
"Look at that man!" As if he had found something, He Mulan was surprised.
Feng Anyan looked at the door, and saw Shao Jiuxing, who had a reluctant face, walking in with a few people, with a cold face, as if he had been forcibly pulled.
"It was a surprise that he came." Feng Anyan sighed casually.
Just as the two of them were drinking and talking while watching the guests, the crowd suddenly whispered, He Mulan hurriedly looked at the door, and saw a woman in a gorgeous dress walking in on luxurious high heels, she took a man's arm, and showed a confident smile to the people in the room as she walked.
"Did you invite her?" Seeing the woman's face clearly, He Mulan asked.
"How is that possible?" Feng Anyan replied.
Xu Hanxuan took Gu Chengju's hand and stepped on the red carpet and walked in, her dress was very high-profile, which complemented her arrogant temperament.
However, it was not her dress that people were talking about, no one here would make a fuss about a gorgeous dress, and people were surprised that she actually appeared with Gu Chengju.
Everyone knows that Xu Hanxuan was raised by Feng Anyan, and everyone knows that the Gu family and the Feng family are rivals. So Xu Hanxuan's way of appearing is really embarrassing. Not to mention that Feng Anyan also brought his fiancée to this dinner ceremony, Xu Hanxuan dressed so high-profile and held the hand of Feng Anyan's sworn enemy, it is easy for people to think about it.
Xuan Haoyu, who didn't know where to play, came over in shock: "Sanshao, which one is this play?" ”
"How do I know?" After saying it with a cold face, Feng Anyan squinted his eyes and looked at Gu Chengju who was walking this way.
Xu Hanxuan was like a piece of shiny chewing gum, sticking to Gu Chengju's body, and as soon as they walked this way, this side naturally became the focus of the audience.
Xuan Haoyu sighed and said in a low voice: "It seems that he came to find trouble on purpose." ”
"Feng Sanshao, it's been a day since I was gone, and I look good." Gu Chengju said with a kind face, Feng Anyan didn't think he was caring about himself, and he didn't bother to talk to him, Feng Anyan just nodded.
"Sanshao, do you miss me?" Looking at He Mulan contemptuously, Xu Hanxuan said coquettishly.
Feng Anyan ignored him, and Gu Chengju said: "I met Miss Xu on the way here, so I brought her over, Sanshao won't mind, right?" ”
Encounter? Could it be that Xu Hanxuan wore an evening dress on the street? He Mulan felt that this lie was very distracting, but it seemed that Gu Chengju was just looking for a reason casually, and it was his intention to bring Xu Hanxuan here to embarrass Feng Anyan.
Feng Anyan sneered and ruthlessly punctured this lie: "Miss Xu really has Yaxing, she is dressed so gorgeously and shopping, aren't you afraid of being photographed?" ”
Xu Hanxuan let go of Gu Chengju's hand, leaned over and said, "Sanshao, are you worried about others?" ”
Seeing her so close to Feng Anyan, Xuan Haoyu immediately exclaimed, "Miss Xu, please respect yourself, your fiancée is still beside you." ”
Xu Hanxuan pretended to be surprised and looked at He Mulan, hid her face and smiled: "Miss He is dressed too low-key, I didn't even see it at first." ”
He Mulan gritted her back teeth, this woman really has to find trouble for herself every time she encounters it, after thinking about it, she said indifferently: "Then according to what you say, Miss Xu is dressed so high-profile, is it because Sanshao can't pay attention to you on weekdays, so she deliberately wears it so shiny today to brush up on her presence?" However, Sanshao doesn't seem to buy it. ”
Seeing the smugness on Xu Hanxuan's face disappear in an instant, He Mulan's heart was dark.
"This is Feng Sanshao's fiancée, I have admired it for a long time." Gu Chengju approached He Mulan, and He Mulan subconsciously dodged.
Feng Anyan got up and pulled He Mulan over, and said coldly: "Since you're here, I'll settle down, otherwise don't blame me for being polite." ”
Gu Chengju was not angry when he heard this, and nodded: "It seems that Feng Sanshao really cares about his fiancée." Then, as if unintentionally, he glanced at He Mulan.
He Mulan was uncomfortable being looked at, and just wanted to leave this person quickly, she whispered to Feng Anyan: "I'll go see A-Ning." ”
Feng Anyan grabbed her wrist: "I'm with you." ”
After speaking, he took He Mulan and left Gu Chengju and Xu Hanxuan. After all, it was the Feng family's dinner, and it would not be good for the Feng family to make a big fuss, and Feng Anyan didn't want to entangle with Gu Chengju too much.
They walked to the place where Yu Panning had just been sitting, only to find that the person was no longer there.
"Where did she go?" He Mulan was a little impatient, this dinner party was mixed, what if Yu Panning was harassed Li?
"Don't rush." Feng Anyan calmly comforted He Mulan, and he stopped a staff member to ask where Yu Panning was.
The staff seemed to have some impressions: "That young lady seems to be hiding something, and she just went over there." ”
He Mulan followed the staff's direction, and sure enough, she saw Yu Panning's figure flashing, she hurriedly walked in the direction of Yu Panning, and when she arrived at the place, she saw a strange scene.
