Chapter 162: Conversation
Bai Lexue looked around, and saw that there was no one, so she stopped here, and after Qu Fan came over, Bai Lexue opened her mouth and said, "Xiaofan, grandma is unhappy, I haven't seen my aunt until now, she will talk to you in a while." ”
Qu Fan nodded and told Xiaoxue, "Xiaoxue, I'm afraid my sister won't come tonight, and besides, I, her, and Lao K, have lost contact for the time being, and they won't answer my calls." ”
"What, this-" Bai Lexue said to Qu Fan very worriedly, "Xiao Fan, what you said is true?
"Hmm. Qu Fan replied.
Bai Lexue's hand clenched into a fist, lowered her head and pondered for a moment, and then looked at Qu Fan and said, "Xiao Fan, why don't you go first now, if my grandmother knows about my aunt and her...... She has cut off contact with us, and I'm worried that Grandma and Daddy will target you. ”
"I've thought about it a long time ago, since things have become like this, then we will find a way to solve it, dodge, it won't work, what should come will always come, thank you for telling me, let's go to the table. Qu Fan said calmly.
"Qu Fan, let's go first, my grandma is angry, it's not a joke, and besides, you don't have anyone here, even if my mother and I will face you, after all, I don't dare to say anything in front of my grandma, you go back to your place first, let my grandma go back to you, on your territory, grandma she won't do anything to you." Bai Lexue said to him, expecting Qu Fan to give her a satisfactory response.
"No need, Xiaoxue. Madame Bai and the crown prince asked me to stay, it will definitely not be easy for me to leave, but if I want to leave, they will definitely not stop me, so I will wait and see what happens. After Qu Fan finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the banquet, Bai Lexue sighed behind him, and after a while, he also walked towards the banquet. When Bai Lexue sat in her place, she glanced at Qu Fan, Qu Fan sat down as if she was fine, and continued to drink with Chairman Lin and Mrs. Lin, talking and laughing with each other.
Seeing that Bai Lexue had been absent-minded, Grandma Bai reminded her loudly, "Xiaoxue, help my mother serve a bowl of chicken skin shrimp ball soup." ”
Bai Lexue looked at Qiu Wenhuan, Qiu Wenhuan and her glanced slightly, so that Bai Lexue could eat at ease and stop being distracted. Bai Lexue nodded and said, "Okay." Picking up the soup bowl and spoon, she filled some of the chicken skin shrimp ball soup in front of her and handed it to her mother, "Mom, the soup is a little hot, you should be careful." ”
Qiu Wenhuan took the soup bowl, nodded her head, took two sips, put down the spoon, and talked to Mrs. Bai, "Mom, today is your birthday, I toast you with a cup and touch your joy." ”
Madame Bai smiled and nodded, picked up her wine glass, and took a sip. After Qiu Wenhuan put down the wine glass, Bai Lexue came over and filled her grandmother's wine glass, "I'll also give grandma a glass." ”
"Xiaoxue, grandma didn't plan to drink anymore, but I drank it because you came to toast. Madame Bai said to her with a smile.
"Thank you grandma, drink pleasantly, drink a lot of hurt, in this case, grandma drank this glass of wine, after a while, I will send grandma home early to rest, what do you think?" Bai Lexue asked her with a wine glass.
Mrs. Bai slowly put down her wine glass, looked at Bai Lexue and said, "Xiaoxue, grandma still has something to do tonight, so she can't go back too early." ”
"Grandma, what's the matter, it's not too late to do it later, you see, it's ten o'clock now, and when we get home, it's going to be late, and your body is even more important." Bai Lexue continued.
Madame Bai only shook her head and said nothing more. "Grandma~~" Bai Lexue continued to coquettish with her, and Grandma Bai reminded her loudly, "Xiaoxue, sit back in your place." ”
Bai Lexue had no choice but to agree, and sat down uneasily, her eyes occasionally glancing at Qu Fan.
After the tea after the meal, tonight's banquet is coming to an end. After Madame Bai finished her tea, the guests present came to Madame Bai one after another to say goodbye to them.
"Xiao Fan, do you want to come with us?" asked Mrs. Lin Qu Fan. Qu Fan shook her head and replied with a smile, "Godmother, you and your godfather should go first, later, Madame Bai and the prince still have something to look for me, I will stay for a while." ”
"Okay, the two of us went to say hello to Mrs. Bai and the prince, and left first, when we have time, remember to bring my girlfriend and go to the house for a meal, so that my godmother can see me." Mrs. Lin said, and then went to the main seat with Chairman Lin, "Mrs. Bai, let's leave first." ”
Madame Bai smiled and glanced at Qu Fan, who was sitting with the two of them, and saw Qu Fan sitting there, drinking tea leisurely, and also looking at her, Qu Fan saw Madame Bai turning her head to look at herself, and immediately smiled back at her. Afterwards, Mrs. Bai said to Lin Ye and the couple, "Is Mrs. Lin okay lately?"
"Mother, she is in good health, thank you Madame Bai for bothering to worry about her. Mrs. Lin replied.
"Okay, say hello to your mother for me, I won't send you two off, go slowly. Madame White said, smiling at them both. After Lin Ye and his wife walked away, Mrs. Bai said to Bai Lexue, "Xiaoxue, it's quite boring for Qu Fan to be there alone, you go and ask him to stay in the lounge for a while." ”
Bai Lexue nodded and said, "Okay." After speaking, she walked to Qu Fan's side. After Qu Fan saw Bai Lexue coming, he laughed and asked, "Madam Bai asked you to invite me, didn't you?"
Bai Lexue frowned, "You can still laugh, grandma asked me to invite you to the lounge to wait for a while, and after they finished sending off the guests, they came upstairs to find us." ”
After Qu Fan slowly drank his cup of tea, he stood up, went upstairs with Bai Lexue, sat down, and waited for Madame Bai and the crown prince.
Mrs. Bai was downstairs, and continued to greet the guests who came to say goodbye, more than ten minutes passed, and most of the guests were gone, leaving only some relatives of the Bai family. In the end, the relatives of the Bai family came over, and a few of them were of the same generation as Mrs. Bai, and said a few words to Mrs. Bai with a smile, and the nephews of those juniors bowed to Mrs. Bai one after another.
One of them spoke, "Tonight's birthday banquet is really exhausted, and my sister-in-law is really happy." ”
His third uncle was polite. Madame White replied to him.
"Didn't Qingqing come over tonight?" the other asked.
Madame Bai nodded and replied, "Qingqing has been delayed in some things in the field, and she hasn't rushed back yet, so she will come later." ”
"Although Qingqing didn't catch up with the banquet, as long as she can come, besides, even if she can't come back today, her intention is the same. Someone said.
"That's the truth, you see, tonight's birthday gift, the number of Qingqing's gifts are the most intentional, the material and carving of the pine crane, are first-class good, the meaning is also very pleasing, as long as the children have a sister-in-law in their hearts, even if they don't come back today, what is there? filial piety, sister-in-law is a festival every day. A brother said to Madame Bai with a smile.
Mrs. Bai smiled and didn't say anything, and Grandma Bai said, "What the fourth uncle said is that it's not too early, and I'll send you uncles." ”
"Don't bother, you've worked hard all night, go home early and rest, we're leaving, goodbye." ”
"Slow down, everybody. Grandma Bai said, and after everyone left, Mrs. Bai stood up from the chair and said to Bai Xianhong and Qiu Wenhuan, "Let's go up, don't let Qu Fan wait too long." ”
Bai Xianhong and Qiu Wenhuan replied, "Yes, Mom." ”
Upstairs, Bai Lexue asked Qu Fan, "Xiao Fan, have you thought about what to say to my grandmother for a while?"
"No," Qu Fan shook his head and said, "There's nothing to think about, what Madame Bai and the Crown Prince ask me, I just have to answer something, I have a clear conscience, there's nothing to worry about." ”
"Alas," Bai Lexue sighed, "Xiao Fan, you let me say something good about you." ”
Qu Fan comforted her with a smile and said, "Xiaoxue, don't worry, although my sister has cut off contact with this place and doesn't want us to disturb her for the time being, she knows everything that happened in Yudu, if Madame Bai and the prince really want to do anything excessive to me, my sister will not sit idly by." ”
"But—"
Qu Fan continued to smile, "No need, Madam Bai, they're here, you just have to sit down." ”
"Grandma, are they coming?" Bai Lexue asked suspiciously.
Qu Fan nodded, turned his head sideways, moved his ears, and said to Bai Lexue, "I heard footsteps, they were Mrs. Bai and the crown prince. ”
"Xiao Fan, you have such good hearing that you can hear the sound of footsteps?" Bai Lexue looked at the door of the lounge, and then looked at Qu Fan.
Qu Fan only smiled, didn't say anything, looked at the door of the lounge, more than ten seconds later, the door was opened, Mrs. Bai and the prince and his wife walked in, after coming in, the prince said to the people behind him, "The old lady and a few of us want to talk about something inside, you guard the door, don't let people enter and exit at will, understand?"
"Yes, Prince. A dozen bodyguards replied, loud enough to echo through the break room. Then, the two bodyguards closed the door of the lounge and stood neatly at the door of the lounge, like a wall, enclosing this place, not even a fly could fly over.
"Madame Bai, the crown prince, the young grandmother. Qu Fan stood up and greeted the three of them. Bai Lexue also stood up and shouted, "Grandma, you are here, sit down." ”
Madame Bai waved her hand to Qu Fan and the two of them, and motioned for Qu Fan and them to sit down as well. She sat opposite Qu Fan herself, and the prince and Grandma Bai sat on Qu Fan's left and right respectively.
