Yu Yuxi rolled her eyes at her and corrected, "I wasn't born in Rome, I arrived halfway." ”

Her father did not have much success in his early years, and his cultural knowledge was not high, but when she was in high school, her father caught up with the real estate boom, which gradually developed, and in the past two years, he made friends everywhere in order to stabilize his position in the industry.

Therefore, this time Jing Ye's birthday dinner, he is bound to go to meet some new friends, which will help him in the future.

"This kind of birthday banquet is just to expand the network of my dad and them, I don't understand, why does he have to take me along." Yu Yuxi sat on the chair next to her, complaining speechlessly.

She smiled and said nothing, and bent down to check the ornaments for problems.

A few seconds later, Yu Yuxi remembered something again, got up and approached her, and gossiped: "Twilight, I inquired last night, Jing Ye hasn't had a girlfriend in his thirties, you say, who is the audience of an old man like him?" ”

"Maybe someone else has a girlfriend, but it hasn't been announced, so we don't know." Tang Dugui replied casually, moved the flowers in his hand, and then said, "Thirty years old, in fact, is not very old. ”

After all, the one in her family is also thirty, and he looks like he is twenty-six or seventeen.

Yu Yuxi heard the meaning of her words, and immediately raised her finger and poked her shoulder, teasing: "Yo, I forgot, this kind of thirty-year-old man, the audience is you." ”

Hearing this, Tang Duyi glared at her, but didn't say anything.

Yu Yuxi didn't care about her warning in her eyes at the moment, and gossiped again, "But I heard my dad say that Jing Ye doesn't seem to like being close to the opposite sex, and he doesn't even participate in dinner parties. ”

She let out a faint sigh, as if she didn't care about these things, and continued to adjust the layout of the scene.

Yu Yuxi followed her footsteps and continued: "In my opinion, this Jing Ye is just like me, an unmarried, after all, it is really annoying to live with another person. ”

"I think it's okay." Tang Duyi raised his eyes and glanced at her, and said his opinion, "As long as you live with the person you live with, you love each other, which is also a great thing, if the two of them don't disturb each other and respect each other, it is also good." ”

"I don't think so." Yu Yuxi shook her head with disgust, "Anyway, I think it's better to be free and easy than anything else." ”

Regarding her words, Tang Duyi did not express an opinion.

After all, if a person is not short of money and love, he will naturally not expect to marry someone and try to get spiritual and material satisfaction from the other person.

Everyone's background is different, and the angle of seeing things is also different, so in terms of marriage, it is naturally different.

She can't decide which choice is right and which is wrong, she can only make the choice that she feels is right.

Because, this is reality, it is life.

Yu Yuxi saw that she was a little distracted, so she didn't continue the topic, and proposed: "Twilight, there is a fireworks show in the central square at night, I heard that the Jing family is celebrating New Year's Day, and it is also prepared for Jing Ye's birthday, the scene is very huge, let's go see it then." ”

She frowned and asked, "Aren't you going to a dinner party tonight?" Do you have time to see it? ”

Yu Yuxi pursed her lips and said indifferently: "I just went through the motions with my dad, and after I went, I would find an excuse to slip away in advance." ”

"Okay then, anyway, I don't want to go to my mother's house for dinner tonight, I don't want to disturb the harmony of the three of them."

What's more, when she went out this morning, Jing Xiao said that she would be busy at night and would go back very late, so she didn't have to go back so early tonight.

Sensing that her mood had become a little low, Yu Yuxi took her arm and comforted: "It's okay, I'll come over early tonight to accompany you, by the way, I can't help you here this afternoon, so I found a helper for you, and he will be there in a while." ”

"Huh?" She was stunned for a moment, shook her head and refused, "No, I can do things here myself." ”

Knowing what she was afraid of, Yu Yuxi couldn't help but laugh and quipped: "What do you think, that person is my cousin, eighteen years old, young and strong, if you have any physical work today, just leave it to him." ”

Listening to her explanation, Tang Duyi breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, raised her eyebrows and said, "I don't have the money to pay him a salary." ”

"You don't need a salary, you just need to take care of the food." She waved her hand indifferently.

"Okay then." Since she said so, Tang Duyi didn't bother to excuse herself.

Half an hour later, Yu Yuxi's cousin Xiang Heng came.

At the age of eighteen, his face reveals a sense of youthfulness, but his smile is sunny and confident.

He was wearing a casual suit, looked energetic, and was very tall, more than 1.8 meters by sight.

"Sister." Xiang Heng walked up to the two and called out politely.

"Hmm." Yu Yuxi nodded, and then introduced to him, "This is ......"

"Sister Gardenia is good." Before she finished her words, Xiang Heng took a step ahead of her and shouted with a smile.

In an instant, both of them were a little stunned.

Tang Dugui smiled at Xiang Heng, which was regarded as a greeting.

"You know?" Yu Yuxi asked with some surprise.

"I went to the school to look for you before, and I met you from afar." He explained with a smile.

"Oh." Yu Yuxi nodded suddenly in realization, then she glanced at the time and explained, "Okay, I'm leaving, you will be responsible for helping her move things or something today, anyway, she is also your sister, you have to listen to her." ”

"Got it." Xiang Heng responded.

When leaving, she didn't forget to tell Tang Duyi: "Explain to him if there is anything, free labor, no need to be polite." ”

Tang Duyi smiled faintly and did not speak.

Seeing that she had already walked away, Xiang Heng opened his mouth and asked with a smile: "Sister Gardenia, what do you want to drink?" I'm going to buy it. ”

"No, you don't." She shook her head in refusal, and raised her hand in a direction, "If you're thirsty, there's free water over there." ”

He glanced at it and nodded, "Okay, so what do you need me to do now?" Do you want to move something? ”

"Not for the time being, wait for the event to start, see what they need, and then adjust it then." As she spoke, she took the lead and walked to the side, but she didn't know that her every move at this moment had been photographed by someone arranged by Jing Xiao.

"Sister Gardenia, are you all designing these alone?" Xiang Heng hurriedly chased after him, and asked with a smile at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

"Yes, that's what I learned, and I can live alone." She took two bottles of water and handed him one of them.

Xiang Heng said words of praise to her, and handed her the unscrewed water again, replacing the bottle in her hand that had not been opened.

For his move, Tang Duyi was slightly stunned, but soon, she didn't think it was anything, after all, Xiang Heng was Yuzu's cousin, and it was reasonable for him to take care of himself, and he could be regarded as taking care of his sister.

In the time since, they have been chatting about design, which is what Tang Duyi is interested in, so they are also talking speculatively.

The event in the mall was supposed to end in the afternoon, but due to the large number of people present today, the organizers temporarily decided to add another performance, so Tang Duyi could only stay and continue to stare at it, and he could not leave until a few hours late.

When night falls, all kinds of brilliant neon lights are lit up, and the streets are dazzling with bright lights, and in this bitter cold season, there is a blazing atmosphere that envelops the whole city.

InterContinental Haicheng.

Tonight, there is a 30th birthday banquet for Jing Xiao.

Although he himself tried his best not to participate, in order not to hit his grandfather and the Jing family's face, he could only be forced to attend.

The atmosphere in the banquet hall gradually became lively, with people laughing and the aroma of red wine filling the air.

But in Jing Xiao's heart, there was a trace of uneasiness, but fortunately, grandma agreed, let him show his face, go back after a scene, and don't have to stay here for too long.

After all, he told his grandmother that he was going to celebrate his birthday with Tang Duyi tonight, although this was a lie, but in order to leave this ghost place as soon as possible, he had no way.

Today's dinner scene was very large, all the powerful and celebrities from Haicheng came, and Jing Xiao noticed at a glance the woman who had been silent and frequently lost her temper in the corner.

Immediately, he walked towards her, "Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Why is your face so bad? ”

Jing Yanli glanced at him and shook his head, "It's okay, it's just a little cold lately." ”

Since his mother died when he was a child, most of the maternal love Jing Xiao felt came from his aunt, so in the Jing family, in addition to listening to his grandparents, he also cared about his aunt the most.

"Then I'll have you take you to rest." As he spoke, he gestured to the people beside him.

Jing Yanli held down his arm to stop him, "Ah Xiao, I'm fine, your dad is over there, go over there." ”

"He doesn't have time to deal with me tonight, half of the people in Haicheng have been called by him, and he is afraid that he will be surrounded by three layers inside and three outside." Jing Xiao said with some annoyance, the disgust in his eyes was undisguised, "Look at today's scene, where is it like giving me a birthday, the person I don't know is not the other, he is getting married." ”

Hearing this, Jing Yanli frowned, and persuaded earnestly: "Ah Xiao, no matter what, she got a certificate with your father and gave birth to a child, so ......"

"So I'm supposed to accept her?" Jing Xiao interrupted her words and snorted coldly, "Auntie, do you want me to accept a murderer who destroys other people's families and kills my mother?" ”

As soon as she heard this, Jing Yanli pursed her lips and was silent, her eyes full of helplessness.

Speaking of his mother's matter, Jing Xiao's emotions became a little excited, he took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and changed the topic, "I'd better let someone help you to take a rest." ”

Jing Yanli sighed lightly, nodded, and then left the banquet hall with help from others.
