Chapter 10: Conflict at the Dinner
Xiang Nuan's hand hanging on the side of her leg clenched slightly, and sure enough, she was not allowed to show signs of change at all.
She has been in the Gu family for five years, and she can't turn her face or arouse their suspicion, so in the same way, she can't make any changes.
Xiang Nuan looked at her so-called uncle, smiled lightly, and changed back to her original harmless appearance when she was in the Gu family.
"I didn't mean anything about my cousin, I just met my cousin-in-law just now, and I wasn't afraid that my cousin would misunderstand."
Gu Wan stared at Xiang Nuan, and Su Yiqiu said suddenly: "Uncle and aunt, I will never have anything with Xiang Nuan, since it is a family banquet, let's sit down quickly." ”
The voice is gentle and mellow, which is completely different from the voice of Xiang Nuan when he speaks.
Su Yiqiu opened her mouth, and Yang Hong, who had always liked her son-in-law, softened her face, and she hurriedly went over and pulled the two of them to sit down.
"Yes, yes, since we eat together, we can't hurt the harmony for outsiders, come, sit down."
Gu Jing glanced at Xiang Nuan thoughtfully, and then sat down slowly, on the big round table of red sandalwood, several people sat in harmony, but Xiang Nuan stood there with his mouth pursed and did not move.
Obviously, they robbed the property that belonged to her father, and it was obviously Gu Wan who openly snatched Su Yiqiu away from her who had nothing.
But obviously she also said that she was an outsider, so what is the point of calling her over now? Let her see the harmony of their family?
Yang Hong exchanged a few words with Su Yiqiu, only to find that Xiang Nuan hadn't moved yet, just stood there like that, looking at her like that, Yang Hong was immediately displeased.
"Xiang Nuan, what are you still doing there, you can't understand if you want to come over and sit? And you look at your clothes today, why didn't you know to wear this yesterday, I still remember when I talk about it, I wore those torn clothes yesterday to lose the face of our Gu family, isn't it? ”
The shrill voice pulled Xiang Nuan's thoughts back, she paused, decided that it was better not to respond, and took a step over to pull out a chair and sit down.
The more Gu Wan looked at Nuan Bu, the more angry she became, and she snorted lightly: "Look at your stupid appearance, if someone else was here just now, wouldn't it be a shame for our Gu family again." ”
As she spoke, Gu Wan raised her eyes and glanced at Su Yiqiu, only to find that the latter's brows were slightly frowned, and her face changed, only then did she realize that her words just now seemed to be a bit excessive.
Gu Wan knew that Su Yiqiu liked her gentleness, so how could she destroy it, so she glared at Xiang Nuan, and then kept silent.
The dishes were quickly served by the waiters, all of them were very delicate dishes, full of color, flavor and flavor, all of which were famous dishes in C City, but Xiang Nuan did not have any appetite.
She had been feeling strange and uneasy since she came, but she couldn't explain it clearly.
The family opposite Xiang Nuan was in harmony, Yang Hong and Su Yiqiu had been talking about this marriage, and Xiang Nuan was completely isolated by them.
Xiang Nuan is also happy to be clean, and he is bored there, hoping that this meal can end quickly.
Xiang Nuan was thinking about it, but his uncle Gu Jing suddenly opened his mouth.
"Xiang Nuan, we called you here this time because we have something to tell you."
Xiang Nuan's heart jumped, and she knew that it would definitely be a good thing to let her come, and she was really coming.
In a word, the dinner table suddenly fell silent, and the eyes of several people fell on Xiang Nuan.
Xiang Nuan raised his eyes and looked at Gu Jing, waiting for his next words.
"The summer vacation is over, you are about to be a senior, recently your sister and she want to buy a Maserati, it just so happens that there is a big project in the company recently, and the transfer funds are not enough, so this year's tuition, I won't help you pay it, you pay it yourself."
The tone was plain and indifferent, but it exploded in Xiang Nuan's heart like thunder.
She said in disbelief: "I'm out by myself? But the Gu family can't even take out that money now. ”
She can't believe it, you must know that the Gu family is still ranked in C City, it turns out that her father's Xiang family has also set off a storm in C City, such a large group industry, how can you believe that the capital operation is not enough? !
And he can even buy Gu Wan's Maserati, so he can't make this money? The reason why she has stayed in the Gu family in the past few years is also partly due to tuition and living expenses.
Originally, it was difficult to maintain the living expenses, and now she has to pay for the tuition fees herself, and a few thousand yuan may be just the money for a meal and a piece of clothing for the Gu family, but it is difficult for her to raise, not to mention the fees to be paid after the start of school.
On the surface, I'm afraid that I just don't want to help her with tuition anymore.
"Xiang Nuan, what are you talking about, our Gu family has also taken care of you for five years, you are in high school and college, when is it not our money, now let you bear a part of it yourself, do you still have a conscience!"
Yang Hong couldn't help but speak, Xiang Nuan also held back the anger in her heart, and turned to her uncle Gu Jing, Yang Hong blamed and ridiculed her nonsensically every time, this uncle of hers can still be reasonable.
"Uncle, I work part-time every day, and my living expenses are not enough, so I really can't get a little money?"
Gu Jing's face was embarrassed, and he moved slightly to Nuan's heart, but Yang Hong suddenly became furious again.
"If you can't take it out, you can't take it out, you can do it yourself!"
In a word, the hope in Xiang Nuan's heart was suddenly shattered.
School is about to start, there is no tuition, how can she continue her senior year, and college is also related to her future fate, she endured it for five years, if she can't take home the property, what should she do......
Tears almost overflowed her eyes, Xiang Nuan gritted her teeth, forced her back, and then raised her eyes, facing Su Yiqiu, who was sitting opposite her.
Eyes touched her watery eyes, Su Yiqiu's head stabbed suddenly, and a fragment seemed to pass through his mind, and he subconsciously stood up.
Why, subconsciously, it seems that he should help her? Why do you suddenly feel this way?
Su Yiqiu stood up suddenly, frightened the people around him, Gu Wan was surprised: "Yiqiu, what's wrong?" ”
At this moment, Xiang Nuan was also shocked by his actions, and looked at Su Yiqiu with anticipation, he ...... Do you want to help her speak?
However, the next moment, Su Yiqiu looked away from looking at Xiang Nuan, and sat down again with his forehead.
"It's nothing, it's just that I was a little dizzy just now."
Xiang Nuan's eyes also dimmed at that moment, Su Yiqiu was from their side, and he hated her so much, how could he help her speak.
Seeing that Su Yiqiu didn't want to help Xiang Nuan speak, Gu Jing also decided to break the jar and said, "So this year, your tuition will be paid by yourself, don't talk about us, our Gu family is also benevolent to you Xiang Nuan, you can do it yourself." ”
Xiang Nuan lowered her head and clenched her hands tightly, but she couldn't help it......
At this time, the door of the private room was suddenly opened, and a deep and beautiful voice came faintly, cold and tempting.
"It also made me bump into a good show, I didn't expect Mr. Gu to have a really good relationship with your niece."
Hearing this voice, Xiang Nuan's whole person shook suddenly, this sarcastic tone, this voice......
