Ye Jingchi's newly released circle of friends immediately made the entire wealthy circle explode.
Originally, the sudden flash marriage of the Ye family's ruler had already made everyone talk about it for a round.
The old things of the previous generation all happened before the Ye family moved from Jincheng, and not many people knew about it.
And the Zheng family has long since declined, so most people still associate Ruan Ling with Ruan Mingwei's family.
In the eyes of everyone, the Ye family would choose to marry the Ruan family, which did not match their strength, because there must be something else hidden, not out of Ye Jingchi's own wishes.
Otherwise, how could Ye Jingchi not even show a few smiles on the wedding day, and end the short ceremony after toasting with the guests?
A month after the wedding, the couple did not appear together on any formal occasions.
Even later, there were some rumors that Ye Jingchi was actually not bad to his wife, and he was not as indifferent as rumored.
But most people still believe that Ye Jingchi should have no feelings for this new wife.
And Ye Jingchi himself has not made any public statements, as if it is more proof of this.
Who would have thought that Ye Jingchi would not not express his position, but would wait for such a king to bomb?
Mr. Ye, who has never been active in any social software, actually posted a circle of friends for this newlywed wife?
No matter how many l points Ye Jingchi has in this show of affection, at least it shows his attitude.
The attitude of the Ye family in charge is enough to make everyone change the direction of the wind.
Not to mention that in addition to showing affection in this circle of friends, it also shows that Ye Jingchi's son and this stepmother are getting along well.
In short, Ye Jingchi's circle of friends is like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, and it also reveals a message-
At Saturday's dinner, Ye Jingchi is likely to bring his wife with him.
.
During the day on Saturday, the housekeeper specially talked to Ruan Ling about this dinner.
The dinner is hosted by a well-established family, and every year this charity dinner is held in support of the UNICEF.
The rich people in the circle will basically come to cheer, which is a routine event and a large social field.
The general process is that after everyone signs in, they chat while eating, and watch performances and donate money by the way.
It is said that some singers and actors will also be invited to perform on stage.
Among these activities, Ruan Ling was most interested in eating and performing, and the other two were handed over to Ye Jingchi.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Jingchi sent a message to Ruan Ling, so that she could prepare for departure with Ye Xu.
Although Ye Xu also had to clean up, it was still much more convenient than Ruan Ling to dress up.
So after Ruan Ling changed into a dress and matched the style, she had already seen Ye Xu in a formal dress and tie.
In addition to the different clothes, the young man's soft short hair on weekdays has also been blown in style, I don't know which professional's handwriting.
To be honest, I'm not used to it.
Ruan Ling stared at Ye Xu for a long time.
Halfway through it, Ye Xu had already turned his face away and refused to look at her.
Finally, Ruan Ling spoke: "I feel that my hands are a little itchy again." ”
If it weren't for Ye Jingchi and the driver
was already waiting for them at the door, Ruan Ling really wanted to take out the camera and take a few more photos of Ye Xu.
Ye Xu is extremely plastic, refreshing and handsome when he wears regular clothes, and now he is wearing a suit, and he has a unique charm in his youth.
Although Ruan Ling didn't praise it directly, Ye Xu probably understood what it meant, and he was suddenly a little uncomfortable.
He awkwardly urged, "Let's go." ”
……
Ruan Ling was a little inconvenient to wear a dress, so she asked Ye Xu to help her carry her skirt and sit in the back seat.
After getting into the car, she first asked Ye Jingchi something she had just remembered.
Ruan Ling: "Ye Jingchi, will the Ruan family come to today's banquet?" ”
She also asked casually, not sure if Ye Jingchi would know.
Ye Jingchi replied: "Ruan Mingwei was not invited this year. ”
Ruan Ling caught the key word and said curiously: "This year? That is to say, it was in the past few years? ”
Ye Jingchi calmly explained: "Well, it may be that the Ruan family's business situation has not been good in recent years. ”
Ruan Ling realized.
She doesn't know much about the wealthy circle, but this kind of fame and fortune circle must be high and low.
Like the Ye family, they are naturally ranked at the top of the invitation list all year round, but the Ruan family is estimated to be on the waiting list.
She was thinking about it, when she heard Ye Jingchiyun add lightly: "It may also be that I mentioned it to Lao Meng, saying that my wife doesn't like the people on the Ruan family's side very much." ”
Ruan Ling: "......"
Should she give him a round of applause at this time?
This man, he didn't say it directly, he had to make a detour.
Ruan Ling didn't like him, and said lightly, "It's a pity."
Ye Jingchi: "What? ”
Ruan Ling: "Without that wonderful family, I feel like there will be a lot less fun." ”
.
Mengjia Winery.
A small area at the entrance of the manor is a check-in area, where some small candies are placed, and there is a backdrop for everyone to take pictures.
After signing in and greeting each other, everyone went to the main venue.
Because of the circle of friends that Ye Jingchi posted last night, many people are talking about the Ye family.
"Since the wedding day, this is the first time Mr. Ye has appeared with his wife, right?"
"No, no, I heard Mrs. Huang say that at Ye Jingchi's son's parent-teacher meeting before, the two of them also appeared together."
"No wonder, I see...... This Mrs. Ye must have started with Mr. Ye's son, which made Ye Jingchi happy. ”
"Speaking of which, Mr. Ye's circle of friends last night was indeed his son, it seems that it is really ...... But how did I hear that the boy was very difficult to get along with? ”
"It's hard to say, no matter how mature you are, you're just a teenage child, and I guess you can't tell the difference between true and false......"
……
There is still some time before the dinner officially begins, and everyone will be able to enter one after another before then.
Many people did not rush into the main venue after signing in, but still lingered at the entrance.
Part of the reason is that Ye Jingchi hasn't arrived yet, and everyone wants to wait to say hello to him here before leaving.
When we entered the main venue, everyone's seats were separated, and it was not easy to talk casually
。
At nearly half past five, everyone finally waited for the black Rolls-Royce that belonged to the Ye family - it was a limited edition, so it was easy to distinguish.
The first to get out of the car was Ye Jingchi.
Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to it, and a few people were the first to meet it.
There were also some people who were silently observing on the side, but at this time they began to mumble in their hearts.
Didn't you say that Mr. Ye would come with his wife? How can you just be alone?
Someone couldn't help but whispered: "I heard that Mr. Ye's wife will also come, why don't you see anyone?" ”
At the parent-teacher meeting before, Mrs. Liu, who was ugly because of Ruan Ling, was also present.
I had just heard people talk about it for a long time, and Mrs. Liu also joined the discussion in a whisper, and even carefully said a few bad things about Ruan Ling.
After that parent-teacher meeting, Mrs. Liu went back and regretted it for several days, feeling that she did not perform well at that time.
In fact, at that time, Ye Jingchi just handed Ruan Ling a bottle of orange juice, and didn't do anything else!
Ye Jingchi is such a decent person, even if he has no relationship with his wife, it is not strange to give his wife a little face in front of outsiders.
She shouldn't have panicked at the time!
But after all, Mrs. Liu still had lingering palpitations about the last experience, so she didn't dare to say too much.
Seeing this scene, her mind came alive again, and she finally couldn't help but speak again.
"Maybe Mr. Ye doesn't want to bring it, the Ruan family ...... after all It's not an old giant like us. ”
She didn't say the latter sentence, but everyone else understood: this was a hint that Mrs. Ye was not from a good enough background to be on the stage.
After Mrs. Liu said what she said just now, she actually felt a little flustered.
The last time she was embarrassed in public, her psychological shadow has not completely dissipated.
She looked at Ye Jingchi again, and found that the other party was still alone and greeting others, so she was relieved.
"I'll just say it!" Mrs. Liu's waist straightened a little, "The circle of friends you are talking about, maybe she also directed and acted herself!" ”
Mrs. Liu didn't have Ye Jingchi's WeChat, and she didn't see the legendary circle of friends with her own eyes, and she only heard about it after coming to the venue.
But Mrs. Liu thinks that a circle of friends is nothing, she has also used her old Liu's mobile phone to post news before-
Although she was scolded in the end, she begged for several days to get Lao Liu to forgive him.
Mrs. Liu finally mustered up the courage to finish speaking, but found that no one paid attention to her.
She looked up, only to find that two more people had come out of the back seat of the limited-edition luxury car.
One is Ruan Ling in a dark red dress, and the other is Ye Xu who helped her hold the hem of her skirt when she got out of the car.
Everyone's eyes have been focused on the past, sighing at this amazing scene.
"Mrs. Ye is really brilliant today, why didn't you think it was so amazing at the wedding before?"
"I'm not mistaken, the son of Mr. Ye next to me...... is actually pulling Mrs. Ye's skirt? ”
"Have you noticed, Mr. Ye's tie today is also dark red striped, and his wife's skirt is the same color!"
Completely Neglected Mrs. Liu: "......"
.
The winery is not in the city, and it takes more than an hour to drive
。 ()
It is easiest to get sleepy in the car, Ye Jingchi saw that Ruan Ling's eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, so he asked her to take a nap first.
(19) The author's new resignation reminds you that "The Stepmother of the Wealthy Villain of the Male Protagonist of the Campus Article" is the first time in.? Update the latest chapters, remember [()] (19) "Come [] + see the latest chapters + complete chapters" ()
After arriving, Ruan Ling looked like she was awake again.
So Ye Jingchi got out of the car first and asked Ye Xu to accompany her in the car.
After exactly a few minutes of his greetings, Ruan Ling could enter the main venue with him.
After getting out of the car, Ruan Ling walked slowly with Ye Xu to Ye Jingchi's side.
Ye Jingchi ended the conversation with the people around him in a timely manner, and smiled gently: "Then I'll go in with my family first." ”
Everyone looked at each other and got out of the way.
Entering the infield, Ruan Ling looked around for a week.
Ye Jingchi's gaze was slightly probing: "What are you looking for?" ”
"I want to see if there are any acquaintances." Ruan Ling said truthfully.
Ruan Ling remembered that Su Junruo had mentioned to her that they would also come to this charity dinner.
Ye Jingchi's eyes darkened slightly: "Really?" ”
Ruan Ling: "Well, Su Junruo and her mother should also come tonight." ”
&nbs
p; The man's expression returned to a faint smile: "Su Qin is also on the guest list." If you want to meet her, I can introduce you in a moment. ”
Ruan Ling nodded: "Okay." ”
Ever since listening to the story told by Ye Jingchi that day, Ruan Ling has had some curiosity about Su Junruo's mother and wants to see what this legendary woman is like.
In fact, compared with the outside, there is not much difference between the infield and the outside, except that there are more tables and chairs, and everyone still socializes with each other in twos and threes.
It will be some time before the banquet officially begins.
At this time, although Ye Jingchi was with his wife and son, there were still many people who were ready to move and wanted to come up and talk.
Ruan Ling simply said to Ye Jingchi, "Why don't you stay here and I'll walk around first?" ”
She had never been to such a place before, and the decorations next to her were quite fresh, and there seemed to be a dessert and drink buffet not far away.
In such a high-end place, the dessert should be delicious, right?
Ye Jingchi saw the longing in Ruan Ling's eyes, and smiled: "Okay, you can go." ”
"Ye Xu." Ye Jingchi said softly, "You are also with you?" ”
In previous years, Ye Xu just followed Ye Jingchi and kept silent.
It's just that Ye Xu may also enter the management of the Ye family in the future, and Ye Jingchi intends to let Ye Xu get in touch with these things in advance, so he will still bring him over every year.
Ye Xu nodded: "Okay." ”
Ye Jingchi continued to advise: "Take care of her, if you encounter something that can't be solved, call me in time." ”
Ye Xu: "Okay." ”
Ye Jingchi: "Don't let her eat too many desserts." ”
Ye Xu: "...... Well. ”
Ruan Ling was unhappy: "Why do you have so much to say." And I'm an adult, why do you only tell Ye Xu? ”
Ye Jingchi laughed low and apologized to her: "It's me who is not good, then you go and take care of Ye Xu." ”
Ruan Ling said "um" with satisfaction, and walked towards the dessert table with Ye Xu.
A few people didn't speak loudly, but too many people's eyes were staring at this family of three.
Now everyone's hearts are full of amazement: this Mrs. Ye,
() Just leave Mr. Ye and leave?
also took Ye Xu away, how do you feel that Mr. Ye's son is closer to this stepmother?
What's even more amazing is that Mrs. Ye is so unkind to Mr. Ye, and Mr. Ye is not the slightest dissatisfied.
Even with a soft smile on his face all the time, he apologized in a good voice.
In short, this Mrs. Ye is definitely not a simple character, and she must not be offended.
……
Ruan Ling and Ye Xu went to the self-service beverage area to get themselves a glass of orange juice first.
When I went to the dessert area again, I met an acquaintance.
"Aunt Ruan!" Su Junruo's voice was very happy, "You're really here, I was just thinking about whether you would come!" ”
Then she glanced at Ye Xu again, and her voice was a little quieter: "Ye Xu, you are here too." ”
On the day he went to the studio as an assistant last time, Su Junruo suddenly found that his feelings for Ye Xu seemed to be a little different.
After returning home, she thought about it for a long time, but she still didn't think it through.
However, liking Ye Xu seems to have become a habit for her.
Ye Xu let out a faint "um".
Ruan Ling asked Su Junruo: "Are you alone?" ”
Su Junruo pursed his lips: "Yes." There were a lot of people on my mother's side, and they were talking about topics that I didn't understand, so I couldn't interject. Chen Songyang was also with his parents, and he didn't know where he went. ”
"That's right." Su Junruo pointed to the dessert table, "This chocolate brownie is very delicious, Auntie, you should like it!" ”
Ruan Ling immediately took a piece with great interest, tasted it with great interest, and exchanged dessert experiences with Su Junruo.
Ye Xu stood silently on the side without speaking, looking like a well-behaved follower.
It's just that this "follower" is a little too eye-catching, and it has attracted countless people's amazed or curious eyes.
In previous years, Ye Xu appeared at the dinner party, and he was also the object that everyone wanted to curry favor with.
After all, Ye Jingchi is such a son as Ye Xu, and most of the Ye family's big estate will be inherited by Ye Xu in the future.
It's just that Ye Xu is a lot more mature than his peers, and he always looks indifferent in front of outsiders, even more difficult than Ye Jingchi-
No matter how Ye Jingchi is, he is also a businessman, and businessmen seek profit, and everyone knows what Ye Jingchi wants.
But no one can figure out Ye Xu's preferences.
Now seeing Ye Xu following Ruan Ling without complaint, everyone couldn't help but wonder what clever means Ruan Ling used to make his stepson so obedient.
……
After a short while, a big grinning voice reached Ruan Ling's ears.
"Hello Auntie! Brother Xu, Su Junruo, you are all here. ”
This voice doesn't need to be carefully recognized, as soon as you hear it, you know that it is Chen Songyang.
However, he didn't come alone, and there was a middle-aged couple holding arms behind him, who seemed to be Chen Songyang's parents.
Chen Songyang's mother smiled and accosted Ruan Ling: "Mrs. Ye, the last time we met was at the wedding. The two of us are so close that we should have met again a long time ago. It's a pity that I heard Xiaoyang say that you have been busy lately, so I am not embarrassed to disturb. ”
Chen Songyang's father also stepped forward and exchanged pleasantries with Ruan Ling.
Mrs. Chen's smile is decent, timely
From time to time, I echo my husband and never let the words fall to the ground.
At first glance, it is the kind of person who can mix like a fish in water in all kinds of social situations.
After a few words, Mrs. Chen's topic turned to her son: "Xiaoyang is at home, and I often mention Mrs. Ye. I joked with Lao Chen, saying that if it goes on like this, Xiaoyang will have more godmothers. ”
When Mrs. Chen said this, she had her own thoughts.
Chen Songyang and Ye Xu had a good time, but Ye Jingchi had known their family for so long, but they had always been nodding friends.
The Ye family's profits have increased year by year under the operation of Ye Jingchi, but the Chen family's business has been a little sluggish in recent years, and now the gap between the two has widened.
After discovering that Chen Songyang and Ruan Ling had a good relationship, Mrs. Chen always thought that she could rely on this relationship to make the relationship between the two families closer, and it would be better to get some help from the Ye family.
This time, the sentence "godmother", which seems to be a joke, also has the meaning of a few l points of temptation.
Unexpectedly, before the other side could respond, Chen Songyang's reaction was greater than Ruan Ling's.
Chen Songyang's head shook like a rattle: "No, no, no!" Mom, don't talk nonsense, I don't want to recognize my godmother at all! ”
After speaking, he immediately glanced at Ye Xu, looking like a thief.
Ye Xu: "......"
Mrs. Chen, who was exquisite, looked at her son in surprise, with a rare look of embarrassment on her face: "Xiaoyang, how can you say that......"
Chen Songyang still couldn't help denying it: "Mom, I really don't have that idea!" Don't be strong! ”
Ruan Ling couldn't help laughing.
Ye Xu looked at Chen Songyang, who was frightened, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise.
Su Junruo also snickered beside him, estimating that he also remembered the incident of the hot pot restaurant that day.
Only Mrs. Chen and her husband looked confused, and they wanted to ask but were not easy to ask.
……
Thinking that there would be dinner for a while, Ruan Ling didn't eat too many desserts, only ate a small pudding and half a brownie recommended by Su Junruo.
She gave the remaining half to Ye Xu and asked Ye Xu to help her solve it.
The admission of the guests is almost over, but the host is still preparing on stage.
Ruan Ling didn't want to go back to Ye Jingchi so quickly and sit down, so as not to be caught and have to say some greetings, and he couldn't run away.
She looked around, and then pointed in the direction of the stage: "Ye Xu, do you want to go over there and have a look?" ”
I heard that people from the entertainment industry came to perform today, and Ruan Ling was a little interested.
Ye Xu hesitated.
There were quite a few cast and crew members on the other side of the stage, and the crowd was more crowded than in other places.
Ruan Ling saw that Ye Xu didn't speak, and couldn't wait to urge: "Oh, let's go, let's go." ”
Half-pushed and half-done, the two came to the side of the stage.
When I got closer, I found that there were more people than I thought, the sound was very noisy, and the staff were adjusting the stage equipment.
The microphone hummed, and Ye Xu had to raise his voice so that Ruan Ling could hear what he said: "What are you looking at?" ”
Ruan Ling looked left and right, and responded: "I heard that there are celebrities coming, I don't know if there are any big beauties and handsome guys?" ”
This level of wealthy charity dinner should at least be here
There are first- and second-tier stars in the entertainment industry, right?
Ruan Ling was a little curious.
After all, her crew before was not a big investment, and she didn't have a chance to meet real first-line stars.
Ruan Ling's voice was partially covered by the noise generated by the staff debugging the microphone.
Ye Xu only heard the words "handsome guy" clearly, so his face became a little complicated.
However, looking at Ruan Ling's rather interested expression, Ye Xu hesitated for a moment, but decided not to say anything.
At this time, the actors and singers were probably preparing to perform backstage, and Ruan Ling watched it for a while, but she didn't see a character similar to a star appear.
She was a little disappointed, and was about to call Ye Xu back to wait for the meal.
At this moment, a man walked over: "Lingling? ”
When he called for the second time, Ruan Ling realized that he was calling himself and turned to look.
The two looked at each other, and Ruan Ling's eyebrows raised slightly.
This person looks quite like a star, but it's not entirely because of his looks, but his overall appearance seems to be carefully packaged.
To the naked eye, there is a slightly heavy makeup, a hairstyle with a lot of hairspray, and a black suit with squins.
However, if you take a closer look, the hardware conditions of the facial features and face shape are indeed okay, and the height is not short.
Ruan Ling doesn't know how people in the entertainment industry look in reality, but the other party is at least better looking than the supporting actors in the previous crew.
She had just made an evaluation in her mind, and the system appeared.
[This is your ex-boyfriend, Xu Chenyan. is the actor mentioned by Ruan Haosen before, who has been in love with you for two months. 】
With the introduction of the system, Xu Chenyan's face showed a somewhat bitter smile: "Lingling, I didn't expect to meet you here again." ”
Ruan Ling was puzzled: "Why didn't you think of it?" ”
Doesn't she look like a rich person?
At the same time, Ye Xu listened to the conversation between the two people in his ears, and clearly saw the complicated and bitter expression of the man opposite.
Ye Xu: "......"
At this time, should he call Ye Jingchi?
However, the situation is ...... now
Ye Xu hesitated.
Perhaps, Ruan Ling would prefer him to help hide it from his father?!
