Chapter 13: The Banquet (1)
Old man Shen's 70th birthday, the guests were full and the people who came were all well-known figures in L City, involving all circles.
Shen Jiaqi was wearing a neatly cut dress, and the royal blue dress set off her already fair skin even more cold.
And Xu Xiao also cooperated with Shen Jiaqi to wear a black suit, and some details of the neckline were exactly the same royal blue as Shen Jiaqi.
The two sets on them are a couple model tailored for them by a certain family.
When Shen Jiaqi and Xu Xiao came to the banquet holding hands, the eyes of the people in the dance hall focused on them.
Some of the celebrities who participated in the banquet looked at each other when they saw Xu Xiao's appearance.
"This is Mr. Xu who had an affair with Fei Fei last time? The photo last time was too blurry, I didn't expect the real person to be so handsome. ”
"That's right, it's really cheap Fei Fei's slut, even if she can have an affair with the Diamond King, she can earn traffic, and the benefits can be all for her."
"Mr. Xu is not Wang Lao Wu, I heard that he seems to be married, and the object is the eldest lady of the Shen family, otherwise why do you think he came here today?"
"It's normal to come here as him, okay, besides, isn't there any news that he and Miss Shen have broken up a long time ago?"
"Hehe, don't move if you don't understand, be careful of being drowned in the depths of the water."
Several actresses chatted anonymously on a special software, and they all thought about Xu Xiao's good-looking and fat "meat".
Of course, Shen Jiaqi is also being secretly watched, speculating whether she is a young lady or a canary of the man next to her.
It's no wonder that they have such a look, after all, after the news of Shen Jiaqi and Xu Xiao was exposed, the Shen family suppressed those reports and tried their best to control the impact to the minimum.
After Shen Jiaqi and Xu Xiao announced their marriage, the two did not hold a wedding, but the parents of the two parties sat together and signed one contract after another and left, leaving them alone together.
Later, the previous reports about them slowly and imperceptibly disappeared.
The internet has memories, but memories are also forgotten. Five years have passed, and everyone can't see the situation in their circle clearly, and there is almost no gain from online searches, after all, the bigger the family, the better the control over their reputation and privacy, and the photos of Shen Jiaqi and Xu Xiao can't be found on the Internet.
"Good time, Xu Xiao, you are here." A young man walked towards them with a wine glass.
"Why did Second Prince Lin have time to attend the dinner recently, don't you hate socializing the most?" Shen Jiaqi touched the wine glass with Lin Zehan and joked.
"Xu Xiao," Lin Zehan looked up at Xu Xiao and then looked at Shen Jiaqi again, "The old man in the family asked for it, and even if he didn't say it, I would come back to attend Grandpa Shen's birthday banquet." ”
"Hey, it's just that I was urged to do this when I saw the two of you getting married," Lin Zehan pouted and looked at the crowd in the distance, "No, my eldest brother is here too." ”
Lin Zechen was talking to people from all over the crowd, and the people around him showed appreciative smiles and eyes.
Shen Jiaqi looked at Lin Da who was at ease in the distance, put his left hand on the bar, and said to Lin Zehan with a wine glass in his right hand, "Look, look." ”
"Oh, I saw it, my eldest brother is a cow, I have already taken it", Lin Zehan faced Shen Jiaqi and Xu Xiao, and after seeing their couple dresses, his star eyebrows were raised, and his charming peach blossom eyes smiled like a fox, "Your clothes are quite matched." ”
Lin Zehan grew up with Shen Jia and Xu Xiao, and he is also the son of a family, and he has a good relationship with them, and he knows no less about the situation of Xu Xiao and Shen Jiaqi than the Shen family and the Xu family.
"Of course," Shen Jiaqi glanced at Xu Xiao, smiling, she winked at Lin Zehan proudly, "After all, we have been husband and wife for five years, how can you be a single person when you are old." ”
"Is it young and young?" Lin Zehan was just about to jump up, when he saw Lin Zechen in the distance looking at him and smiling, Lin Zehan suddenly felt that the cold hairs on his back had already stood up, and he was about to slip away.
"The master is going to find his female companion, don't fight with you husband and wife." After saying that, he walked into the distance seriously.
The jewelry on the back of Shen Jiaqi's neck was a little tilted, and Xu Xiao saw Shen Jiaqi pulled him into his arms, bowed his head and seriously helped her correct the position of each diamond.
"What are you doing, so many people are watching." The blush on Shen Jiaqi's face seemed to be a little darker than when he came.
Xu Xiao heard Shen Jiaqi's voice, and continued his movements in his hand, he smiled gently, "Then let's watch it all." ”
The two are almost close together, intimate, extraordinary appearance, Xu Xiao's identity and Shen Jiaqi's mystery, many eyes at the banquet quietly looked at them.
Lin Zehan walked and wanted to look back to see if Lin Zechen continued to follow him, he shouldn't be able to catch him if he was so busy today.
So when he stopped and stood next to a table, and wanted to observe Lin Zechen by drinking, his eyes looked in the direction just now and saw the scene just now.
Lin Zehan saw that Lin Zechen continued to maneuver around the crowd and couldn't get out of it for a while, and he drank the champagne in his hand happily.
The good-looking slender fingers lazily tapped on the table, as if recalling something interesting, the corners of Lin Zehan's mouth hooked a smile and enlarged it infinitely.
It seems to be interesting, Shen Jiaqi, you really seem to get what you want.
Pity......
"Little brother, hello ......" a delicate female voice came timidly from the front.
Lin Zehan looked up and saw a beautiful little girl with big watery eyes, looking at Lin Zehan with a hesitant and scared expression.
"Little brother, do you see my sister?" The little girl's eyes were as clean as a small animal.
Lin Zehan looked at the appearance of the girl in front of him, although he did not have the same insight into all the dark movements around him as his eldest brother, but he still had this eyesight.
It is estimated that the young lady of which family followed her sister to the banquet and got lost, but the person in front of her looked almost sixteen or seventeen, why did she get lost and couldn't find her family?
Anyway, Lin Zehan was idle, he smiled softly at the girl, "Who is your sister, my brother will take you to find it." ”
Su Anan saw the good-looking brother in front of her smiling at her so beautifully and so gently, she suddenly felt that what her sister said was right, she couldn't shrink herself up because she was afraid, so she would miss many beautiful things and people.
For example, the good-looking little brother in front of him.
......
"There are so many beauties looking at you," Shen Jiaqi poked Xu Xiao's waist and said sourly, "Mr. Xu is really charming." ”
When Xu Xiao heard Shen Jiaqi's words, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but it seemed that he didn't make any expression.
"Mr. Shen's charm is not small," Xu Xiao's eyes fell on a few places, "As soon as I entered the door, I attracted a lot of rich wolves, tigers and leopards." ”
It's always like this, she's always like this with a huge attraction, Xu Xiao's eyes moved darkly.
Shen Jiaqi covered her mouth happily, thinking of something, she approached Xu Xiao, "Mr. Xu's charm is even greater, after all, the wealth wolf, tiger and leopard have been attracted by you." ”
Hearing this, Xu Xiao reacted quickly, and after thinking about it for almost a few tenths of a second, he realized what Shen Jiaqi was saying, "Jiaqi, the previous scandals between me and those celebrities were to increase their exposure. ”
"Some of them were recommended by their uncles, the Xu family can't help but sell this face, I have nothing to do with them, there were also staff around at that time who were just disguised, you can ask Yan Zhi."
Hearing Xu Xiao's series of explanations, Shen Jiaqi just lowered her head and smiled, but she heard a little nervousness and panic in Xu Xiao's voice, and she took Xu Xiao's hand, "I know, you don't have to be so nervous." ”
"These are common hype tactics, old-fashioned but useful, and I certainly understand you."
Hearing Shen Jiaqi's intimate answer, Xu Xiao's restless heart calmed down a lot, and his throat rolled as if he wanted to say something.
"Good time, you're here." A gorgeously dressed lady walked towards Shen Jiaqi and Xu Xiao.
"Mom! You're here. Shen Jiaqi let go of Xu Xiao's hand and ran to his mother's side.
Mother Shen looked at her daughter lovingly, and tapped her forehead with her fingers, "You kid, you don't usually come back to see your mother." ”
"The company has been busy lately, Mom, you see I'm tired and thin." As he spoke, Shen Jiaqi also stretched out his arm and pinched it.
Mother Shen saw that her child was so old, she was already in charge of the company's affairs, and she was spoiled like a child, she smiled dotingly and helplessly.
Shen's mother almost had a difficult birth when she gave birth to Shen Jiaji, and after desperately giving birth to Shen Jiaji, Shen's mother could no longer conceive other children, so Shen Jiaqi was the only daughter of Shen's father and Shen's mother.
The husband and wife have given endless love to this daughter since she was a child, and they have not let her suffer the slightest grievance, except for that person.
Mother Shen lovingly took her daughter's hand and looked at Xu Xiao, "Xu Xiao, have you been busy with work lately?" ”
"Mom, the company has a new project recently, but it is strictly handled, and I am fine."
Mother Shen nodded, "That's good, in this case, you should accompany Jia Ji more, she is going to develop a new field recently, since you have time, take care of her and help her more, after all, she has been with you when you are at your lowest." ”
"I don't want you to work hard for her, but at least you have to repay it equally." Shen's mother's tone was gentle, but the content was sharp.
"Mom." Shen Jiaqi gently tugged at Shen's mother's sleeve, a little dissatisfied.
"I know Mom, I will," Xu Xiao nodded and continued, "Even if you don't remind me, I will do it, Jia Qi and I are husband and wife, and husband and wife are to help each other." ”
After speaking, he said to Shen Jiaqi, "Jiaqi, Mom is right, I will accompany you more in the future." ”
"I hope so, but I want to see you in action, after all, it's easier to say than to do."
In fact, Shen's mother is not a mean person, but she doesn't like Xu Xiao.
Not only didn't like it, but even hated it, if Shen Jiaqi didn't like her, even if the news broke out back then, with the strength of the Shen family, she could suppress this matter and keep Shen Jiaqi.
But his precious daughter has to protect him.
Shen Jiaqi can't see her state clearly over the years, but how can she, a mother, not be able to see clearly.
