Chapter 280: Honored Guest
readx;? When Su Jiangyuan and Pei Yucheng rushed back to Wei's house, Pei Yucheng and Ning Zhixuan had already arrived early. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Su Jiangyuan and Wen Chengyu glanced at each other, the old man's distinguished guest was indeed Pei Yucheng, no matter how they looked at it, they all looked like a foil.
On the coffee table in the living room, there was a pot of tea, and when they entered the door, the tea was already halfway gone, and they just heard the old man ask Ning Zhixuan in an arrogant tone, "Ah Xuan girl, you layman is telling me, grandpa has this tea, how does it taste?"
Ning Zhixuan was silent for a long time and replied, "Grandpa, Ah Xuan doesn't understand tea, but Ah Xuan can drink it, this is good tea." ”
There was no technical compliment, but it made the old man laugh.
Pei Yucheng raised his hand and rubbed Ning Zhixuan's hair, and said with a smile, "You, only when you are in front of your grandfather, you will be so well-behaved." ”
Ning Zhixuan subconsciously wanted to avoid the man's touch, and when he touched the old man's inquiring sight and Pei Yucheng's smiling gaze, he sat still in the end. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the two people who came in together, but his body couldn't help but stiffen.
"Grandpa, you know that Ah Xuan likes to tell the truth the most, but you still like to be bored with yourself. As Su Jiangyuan spoke, the person had already entered the living room and walked over, his eyes turned around on several people, and finally nodded lightly at Pei Yucheng, "Mr. Pei, welcome to the Wei family." ”
Pei Yucheng hooked his lips and smiled, his face was a little more intimate than when he saw her in the past, "Thank you." At the end, I didn't forget to add, "I'm a guest now, move around more, and I won't be a guest in the future." ”
There were words in the words, Su Jiangyuan was confused when he heard it, and he was very embarrassed.
She subconsciously looked at Ning Zhixuan, but saw that the latter had his head down, and he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, as if he hadn't heard the conversation between the two people.
After speaking, he sat down next to Ning Zhixuan unceremoniously, and did not forget to poke Ning Zhixuan, who had been silent beside him, with his elbow, "What are you distracted? ”
Ning Zhixuan glanced up at Su Jiangyuan, his face was a little less excited and less comfortable than before, and finally replied sullenly, "I'm sorry, I also knew about it temporarily today." ”
Su Jiangyuan was stunned, Ning Zhixuan was too different from the past, and she noticed it almost immediately. But when he remembered the phone call from Pei Yucheng he had received before, he knew that Ning Zhixuan was still stubbornly about divorcing Pei Yucheng, so he didn't think about it.
Wen Chengyu came in later, only nodded lightly at Pei Yucheng, and didn't say anything.
The old man was obviously dissatisfied with Wen Chengyu's lukewarm attitude towards Pei Yucheng, and looked at Wen Chengyu with displeasure on his brows, opened his mouth, but closed his mouth in the man's indifferent eyes like thin ice.
He can't talk about him, but in the end it's just making himself ugly.
In the huge living room, there were five people.
The ones who spoke were just Pei Yucheng and the old man, from astronomy to geography, from ancient times to the present, talking eloquently, as if other people did not exist.
The corners of Su Jiangyuan's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he turned his head to look at Wen Chengyu, and found that the latter was using his mobile phone to send and receive documents. turned his head to look at Ning Zhixuan again, and found that Ning Zhixuan was completely distracted, looking like he was not in a state at all.
Su Jiangyuan: "......"
Even though the old man was chatting with Pei Yucheng, he suddenly found that he seemed to have left out the others, and when he turned around and wanted to find some topics to talk about, he found that no one responded to him at all.
“......”
Fortunately, this awkward atmosphere did not last long.
At eleven fifty o'clock, the housekeeper Lao Wei appeared in the living room on time and reminded everyone to move to the dining room to eat, and the strange and embarrassing atmosphere was completely over.
The old man got up and beckoned Pei Yucheng to sit down for a meal, "You have come to the house so many times, and you haven't eaten here yet." The cook of the Wei family was there when I took over the Wei family, and I practiced good cooking skills. Show your face today, you have a good taste. ”
Pei Yucheng nodded again and again, "The old man ordered it, it will definitely not be wrong." ”
The old man didn't know what kind of laughter he had been poked, and immediately laughed again.
“......”
During the banquet, the old man specially ordered Pei Yucheng to sit beside him, Wen Chengyu, Su Jiangyuan, and Ning Zhixuan to sit opposite. After the various dishes were served, the old man waved the chopsticks in his hand and said to the young people, "Eat." ”
This kind of atmosphere, the old man likes it very much.
The few young people in front of him, in addition to those who are connected to their own blood and blood, are the children they like very much. The group gathered together, had a meal, talked and laughed, and for him, it was really a favor of God to meet him in his lifetime.
But the kids don't think so.
In front of the huge table of dishes, there was still only the old man and Pei Yucheng interacting. Su Jiangyuan and Pei Yucheng interacted, and Su Jiangyuan and Ning Zhixuan interacted.
Although Su Jiangyuan has always felt that Pei Yucheng is a guest of the Wei family, it is not right to invite guests to dinner like this, and there is no interaction during the banquet. But the old man's overly enthusiastic attitude really made her feel cold, and finally gave up.
She took the dish and handed it to Ning Zhixuan's plate beside her, and couldn't help but look at her with some concern, "Ah Xuan, eat the vegetables." "Throughout the night, Ning Zhixuan said no more than five sentences.
Su Jiangyuan muttered to himself in his heart, when he has eaten, he must find a place to chat with Ning Zhixuan. Ning Zhixuan in this state is too scary.
Ning Zhixuan saw the sudden extra dishes on the plate, stopped eating, and replied softly for a while, "Thank you." ”
Su Jiangyuan turned around to help her continue to pick up the vegetables, and froze in place.
They are small, they grew up together, they have similar personalities, they have never been awkward and red-faced, and each other's things are like their own.
This "thank you" was the first time Ning Zhixuan said this to Su Jiangyuan, and she felt cold in her heart when she heard it.
There was a sudden silence around him.
By the time Su Jiangyuan reacted, there were already two extra pineapple ribs on the plate in front of him.
The first piece was given to her by Wen Chengyu, who was sitting on her side, with natural movements, and she was completely aware of her preferences, which was not surprising at all.
The second piece is from Pei Yucheng on the other side. When Su Jiangyuan found out, Pei Yucheng just put the ribs on the plate in front of her, took back the chopsticks and sat back in place.
Seeing Su Jiangyuan's eyebrows twisted, Pei Yucheng secretly laughed to himself, and said in a deep voice, "There are a lot of misunderstandings between me and Ah Xuan, and the previous few times, thanks to Jiang Yuan's help, I borrowed flowers to offer Buddha thank you." If it is used in my place in the future, let it be opened. ”
She helps?
Could it be that he was talking about the time when Ning Zhixuan disappeared? But what happened after that, why didn't she know?
In this way, the atmosphere is even more awkward.
Su Jiangyuan almost subconsciously looked at Wen Chengyu, for fear that he would misunderstand something, and anxiously wanted to see some expression on the man's face, and before she could speak, Wen Chengyu gently shook her hand from under the table.
At that moment, she suddenly felt at ease.
In fact, if she was to explain, she wouldn't have much to say.
"Mr. Pei, you're polite. I'm helping you, not for you, but for us. She lowered her head and picked up the ribs that Pei Yucheng had brought over and put them on the plate in front of Ning Zhixuan, and continued, "That's because I always felt that you could help you because you gave our family Ah Xuan happiness." ”
After Su Jiangyuan finished speaking, he didn't forget to lower his head and put Wen Chengyu's piece of pork ribs in his mouth, and while eating, he looked sideways at Ning Zhixuan beside him, and winked mischievously, "Ah Xuan, you said yes, right?"
Ning Zhixuan looked at the suddenly extra ribs in front of her in a daze, she didn't look at Su Jiangyuan, she just quickly looked up at Pei Yucheng opposite.
The man's expression was indifferent, and he looked at ease. With pain in his heart, Ning Zhixuan retracted his gaze and gently hooked his lips at Su Jiangyuan beside him, "Yes, Jiang Yuan is my best friend." No matter what, she's going to be nice to me. ”
No matter how you listen to that, it has a perfunctory flavor.
As soon as Su Jiangyuan's eating action stopped, his heart was quickly covered by a strange and uneasy emotion. opened his mouth, Su Jiangyuan was speechless for a long time, just looked at this Fa Xiao, who had grown up together since childhood, a little unfamiliar.
What the hell is wrong with her?
For a meal, except for the old man who ate happily, the rest of the people had their own thoughts.
The housekeeper took someone to serve some desserts after dinner, Ning Zhixuan, who had been sitting without speaking, looked up at the wall all the time, suddenly glanced at the man beside him, and finally looked at the old man not far away, "Grandpa, it's not too early, Ah Cheng and I will go back first." ”
The old man was reluctant and tried to keep him, "It's still early, you can accompany grandpa again, and let the driver send you back if it's late?"
Who knew that Ning Zhixuan insisted uncharacteristically, "No need grandpa, I still have something to do with Ah Cheng." ”
Pei Yucheng, who had never said a word, glanced at Ning Zhixuan, whose face was not very good-looking, and got up and stood up, "Old man, I'm afraid that Ah Xuan really has something to talk to me about." Another day, I'll definitely come to see you another day, let's have tea and chat. ”
The old man no longer insisted, only raised his eyes and swept over Su Jiangyuan and Wen Chengyu, and ordered, "You two, go out to see them off for grandpa." ”
Su Jiangyuan got up and walked to Ning Zhixuan's side and glanced at her, "Let's go, Ah Xuan, I'll send you." The implication was that she knew that Ning Zhixuan could hear it clearly.
Because Su Jiangyuan is really curious, what happened to Ning Zhixuan now?
Why has it been weird between them since she came back alone from Anseong?
Is there anything she doesn't know?
Hearing Su Jiangyuan say this, Ning Zhixuan was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head lightly for a while, "No need, I'm so familiar with the Wei family, I don't need you to send it." Moreover," she glanced at Pei Yucheng behind her, her voice was cold and terrifying, "We really have something to talk about." ”
Su Jiangyuan froze in place.
If at first her delusions were fake, now, she can be sure.
Ning Zhixuan seemed to be deliberately avoiding getting along with her.
But why?
They are small, and they are the best friends in the world who can share everything they can talk about.
But she didn't insist anymore, nodded, and only told her to be careful on the way back, and didn't follow her out.
Ning Zhixuan nodded, his face turning a little white. Before leaving, he even subconsciously glanced at Su Jiangyuan's direction.
She wanted to talk to herself.
But what to talk about, how to talk about it?
They have been together for so many years, and she has always believed in her as a person.
There are some things that she doesn't necessarily know. That's why she felt that she couldn't face her, let alone tell her what had happened, and she felt that she couldn't speak.
