Chapter 53: The Wedding Dress
Chi Yan's voice came out through the sound hole of the mobile phone, and it was still as warm as jade as before.
"Dad," Chi Yan said, "I took a look at the physical examination report you passed to me last week, and there are still some old problems with cardiopulmonary function. ”
"I know," Master Chi smiled, "what are you doing with Lili?" ”
Soon, a delicate voice sounded from inside the earpiece.
"Dad, we just finished eating and went for a walk outside."
As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes looked at Chi Jingxing on the side.
After all, the past entanglement between Chi Jingxing and Su Li has never been a secret in the upper circles of Haishi.
Chi Jingxing's expression did not change much, his eyes looked at the TV in front of him flatly, his body was lazy, and the cigarette was still stuck between his fingertips and was not lit.
Cheng Mu walked over and patted him on the shoulder, blocking everyone's view of him.
"It's so boring," Cheng Mu said, "Go out and get one?" ”
Chi Jingxing raised his eyebrows, stood up, and walked out expressionlessly.
From beginning to end, he didn't take a look at it from the direction of Master Chi, as if he didn't take this "farce" in the eyes of others to heart at all.
Cheng Mu followed Chi Jingxing and walked out, and Shi Mai, who was not far away, glanced in their direction and continued to drink juice with his eyes down.
Someone poked her in the shoulder.
Shi Mai turned around and found that it was Yin Man, the youngest daughter of the Chi family.
There was a slight unnaturalness in her expression.
For a long time, because of Zhu Yuan and He Yu, she didn't have much affection for Yin Man, the Miss Chi family, although she knew that the wrong person was He Yu, but because she felt sorry for her best friend, she instinctively had a little resistance to Yin Man.
But Yin Man didn't seem to notice it, tilted his head slightly, and asked her in a low voice.
"You are Brother Cheng Mu's wife, right?"
Shi Mai frowned inaudibly, "um".
Yin Man's eyebrows curled, "Actually, I wanted to get to know you a long time ago, but I always felt that you were a little serious and afraid, but today it looks so cute." ”
Shi Mai was stunned and pulled the corners of his mouth a little embarrassed.
Maybe it's because Yin Man never hesitates to praise people and sincere smiles, which makes Shi Mai feel that his "villain's heart" is a little difficult to get into the elegant hall.
She smiled casually, "I'm just not used to this kind of occasion, so I don't look happy every time." ”
Yin Man was amused, "It's okay, you are now Brother Cheng Mu's wife, my brother-in-law and Brother Cheng Mu have a good relationship, and there are many opportunities to meet in the future." ”
She lowered her voice, "This is the atmosphere of my house...... I've long been used to it, next time we go out alone, call my boyfriend and Brother Cheng Mu, you won't be so depressed. ”
Heyu?
Shi Mai raised an eyebrow.
She raised her eyes slightly, and He Yu, who was sitting next to Yin Man, was silent, but Shi Mai still saw the weakness of his heart flashing in his eyes.
Shi Mai smiled lightly, looked at He Yu's eyes, and said deliberately:
"Yes, there will be more opportunities to get along in the future, let's come to Japan for a long time."
Yin Man smiled happily, "Hmm! ”
He Yu quietly picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, looking at Shi Mai calmly.
Looking at each other, Shi Mai's gaze only stayed for a moment before coldly sweeping away.
For her, looking at such a person more is an insult to her eyes.
-
"Isn't there anyone who is in a bad mood because of this kind of?"
In the garden, looking at Chi Jingxing's slightly unsightly face, Cheng Mu laughed and teased.
Chi Jingxing glanced at him expressionlessly and took a puff on his cigarette.
"Nerves."
He was just thinking about what Shi Mai had said to him in the garden just now.
It's obviously something inconsequential, but he always remembers it, consciously or unconsciously, that this kind of emotion that doesn't belong to him is out of his control, which makes him slightly upset.
Cheng Mu carefully observed his expression, shrugged his shoulders and smiled.
"Your eldest brother seems to care about your old man's body, you, as your own son, should find an opportunity to express it, so as not to fall into the hands of others again."
Cheng Mu felt funny, "I don't know if he is looking forward to your old man's well, or does he wish that he would do something quickly so that he can come back and get a piece of the pie?" ”
Chi Jingxing sneered, "It's not easy for him, after so many years, he still thinks about the Chi family's three melons and two dates, he wants to, come back and get it at any time." ”
Cheng Mu said, "Since you look down on the Chi family's property so much, why have you bothered all these years?" Make yourself sick and make wedding dresses for others? ”
Speaking of the word "wedding dress", Cheng Mu's brain suddenly crossed a trace of unrealistic thoughts.
He looked at Chi Jingxing, "You wouldn't have thought about giving the Chi family's property to Chi Yan for Su Li's sake, right?" ”
Ji Jingxing was a little annoyed by his stupid question, frowned and looked at him a few times, and finally came to a conclusion.
"Wen Han is right, a married man is extremely boring."
Cheng Mu: "......"
Chi Jingxing snuffed out the cigarette butt, glanced back at the scene inside, and threw the cigarette butt into the flower bed on the side.
"Tell them, I'm still on business, let's go."
Cheng Mu "heyed" a few times, looked at his distant back, and rolled his eyes speechlessly.
This person does this every time, he does what he wants, leaving him behind his ass to take care of the aftermath and appease the emotions of the old man of the Chi family and Mrs. Chi.
Back in the hall, Master Chi and Chi Yan had finished chatting, Master Chi glanced at Cheng Mu casually, and didn't see Chi Jingxing behind him, frowning and saying, "What about Jingxing?" ”
Cheng Mu smiled, "The British side suddenly called, there was a video conference, Jingxing wants to go back to the company first." ”
Master Chi glanced at Cheng Mu and knew that it was not good for people to have seizures, so he only snorted lightly from the tip of his nose and did not speak.
Mrs. Chi was also very unhappy because of the phone call from Chi Yan, and sat aside expressionlessly.
Such an awkward atmosphere did not affect the continuation of the family banquet, and the guests laughed and laughed, and this "farce" was vaguely passed by talking and laughing.
Wealthy families are accustomed to whitewashing the peace.
The feast lasted until about 10 p.m., when the guests got up to say goodbye.
It wasn't until he walked out of the Chi family hall that Shi Mai breathed a sigh of relief.
She kind of understands where Chi Jingxing's uncertain personality comes from.
If she lives in such a family, I am afraid that she will die of depression before she reaches adulthood.
Sitting in the co-pilot, Shi Mai fastened his seat belt, Cheng Mu glanced at her and started the engine.
In the originally quiet carriage, except for the faint breath of the two people, there were melodious foreign language songs in the stereo.
Suddenly, Shi Mai spoke coldly.
"You went out with Chi Jingxing just now, what did you say?"
