Zhuang Yuwan twitched the corners of her mouth, her smile was stiff.
Huo Zeyan's eyes drifted across her face, and fell on the skirt that Chu Rao was holding in his hand, his eyes dimmed.
Zhuang Yuwan was a little nervous when Huo Zeyan looked at her, her fingernails were unconsciously clasped.
Chu Rao threw the gown back on the gift box, and said indifferently, "I'll take the gown, thank you Ms. Zhuang for your kindness, is there anything else Ms. Zhuang wants to do?"
Zhuang Yuwan supported her smile, "There's nothing else to do."
"Okay." Chu Rao stood up, "I won't stay any longer, Mother Zhao, see off the guests."
After finishing speaking, Chu Rao didn't give them a look, and got up and went upstairs directly.
Huo Zeyan glanced at Zhuang Yuwan next to him, got up and left.
Chu Rao went back to the room and left the dress casually beside her. Su Qingyi walked in, saw the dress, and raised her hands to have a look.
Su Qingyi's face darkened instantly, "Is this dress sent by Huo Zeyan and Zhuang Yuwan?"
"Ah."
Su Qingyi snorted heavily.
"How desolate is the young lady of my Chu family? Not only does she have to wear a dress sent by someone else, but also something that no one picks up on the street." Su Qingyi was indignant, and threw the dress on the ground, "If you want to go to that opening party, Mom will take it to buy it tomorrow."
It's no wonder that this dress won't be laughed out loud at the banquet hall.
Chu Rao picked up the skirt and threw it back on the sofa, "No, I'll just wear this."
Su Qingyi opened her eyes wide, almost suspecting that she had heard wrong, "Are you crazy?"
"Mom, don't worry, I have my own plan."
Su Qingyi didn't understand.
The servant at the door knocked lightly, "Madam, miss."
Su Qingyi, "What's the matter?"
The servant came in with an exquisite gift box, and said to Chu Rao, "Miss, this is brought to you by Mr. Huo."
Su Qingyi raised her eyebrows, "What is it?"
Su Qingyi opened it for Chu Rao. Inside the gift box was a silver-white long dress with a one-shoulder design, a row of valuable gemstones inlaid on the shoulders, a tightened waistline, and a long fishtail skirt. The design is simple and elegant, low-key and luxurious.
Su Qingyi took a closer look, "Isn't this the haute couture of the designer who is very popular recently? This dress is no less than seven figures."
Chu Rao looked up and glanced, "Send it back to him, I don't want it."
"This?" The servant looked at Su Qingyi with some embarrassment.
Su Qingyi put the dress back into the gift box, "Yes, give it back to him. Although our Chu family is not as good as their Huo family, it's not that we can't afford a dress."
The servant had no choice but to nod and went out with the gift box.
Su Qingyi sat next to Chu Rao, and said worriedly, "Why don't you go tomorrow night, I always feel that they have no good intentions."
"I know, it's so easy to invite me, isn't it just a Hongmen banquet, it's okay, mom, I have plans."
Su Qingyi, "Be careful yourself, the bad guys have no bottom line."
Chu Rao sighed, leaned sideways on Su Qingyi's shoulder, "Well, I know."
Su Qingyi sighed helplessly and distressedly, "If you had rejected the Huo family's [-] million yuan from the beginning, you and Huo Zeyan would not have married, then maybe the whole thing would not have come to this point.
Mom originally thought that Huo Zeyan was someone worthy of your entrustment for the rest of her life, but she didn't expect it, the world is unpredictable, and now I really don't know how it will end. "
Chu Rao's eyes dimmed, and she glanced at the dress, "Don't worry, Mom, there will be a solution."
Su Qingyi nodded.
……
At night, it began to rain lightly in Jiangcheng.
The mountain road was slippery, and Yu Zheng couldn't leave, so he had to stay here for one night. Mr. Fan arranged rooms for them, because there were only three rooms, Qin Xi and Lu Bochen lived in one room, and Yun Xiao and Yu Zheng shared one room.
After the meal, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and it was falling densely, accompanied by a few thunderclaps from time to time.
There is no signal here, the mobile phone can't play, Lu Bochen can't work, Yun Xiao is also idle and bored.
Seeing that they were idle and had nothing to do, Mr. Fan walked back to the room slowly. After a while, he brought out a wooden box and put it in the middle of their desk.
Yun Xiao raised his eyelids and glanced, "Old man Fan, what is this?"
"Mahjong, there are exactly four of you, go and play by yourself."
Yun Xiao raised his eyebrows, straightened up, and opened the box, which was full of mahjong.
"You old man still has mahjong?"
Old Fan laughed twice, walked back to his reclining chair and sat down, and said slowly, "My wife liked to play before, and I have been with her since she left."
Mentioning the sadness of Fan Lao, several people were silent for a while.
Fan Lao let out a relieved laugh, "My wife has been gone for many years, it's long gone, don't be nervous, you young people can play by themselves."
Qin Xi pursed her lips, "Thank you, master."
Yun Xiao sat on the chair and lit the number of mahjong. Although it looked a little old, the mahjong inside was well preserved.
Yun Xiao raised his eyebrows, and glanced at the few people, "Four missing and three, are you three coming?"
Qin Xi looked at him, "I've never played before."
"It's easy, just play two games." Yun Xiao looked at Lu Bochen and Yu Zheng again, "What about you?"
Yu Zheng nodded, "I know a little bit."
Lu Bochen, "Same."
Qin Xi looked at Lu Bochen, "Will you do it too?"
"Have you seen it before? Mom's biggest hobby is playing this."
Qin Xi blinked, "Is it okay to just read it?"
Lu Bochen nodded, "Enough."
Yun Xiao smiled lazily, "Stop chatting, let's start."
After all, it is the only thing that can pass the time now, everyone plays.
Qin Xi hooked her lips, "What are you betting on?"
Since there is a winner or loser in playing mahjong, there is no point in gambling.
Yun Xiao smiled, "Old Man Fan explained that we will get up and cook tomorrow's breakfast by ourselves, and he will make breakfast for the loser tomorrow morning."
Although this bet was a bit naive, it was meant to pass the time, and several people had no objections.
Qin Xi nodded, "Let's start then."
As for Qin Xi, she really had never played before, and she didn't even know how to play the whole card. It was Lu Bochen who stopped and helped her make it, and then explained the general rules and playing methods to her.
Qin Xi seemed to understand, and was eager to try.
But in the first fight, even though Lu Bochen was helping her, Qin Xi still beat her in a mess.
He even shot Yun Xiao directly.
The second hand, compared to the first hand, Qin Xi played more smoothly, but her card clearly wanted to be "tie", but she drew it out and fed it to Yun Xiao in vain.
Yun Xiao sat at her next door, step by step, making all the noise.
Yun Xiao put the card on the table, curling the corners of his lips, that expression almost made him laugh.
Yu Zheng felt a little helpless, "Ma'am, are you playing with this card? Master Yun has already messed up twice, and this one is just the same."
How can she play like this, the first one directly fires at others, and the second one directly kills all.
The key lies in the fact that Lu Bochen keeps feeding her cards.
Qin Xi glanced at the cards that Yun Xiao put on the table, "It's all the same, okay, I'll pay attention next time."
Lu Bochen glanced at Yun Xiao and Yu Zheng, then looked back at Qin Xi, "It's okay, continue."
Huo Zeyan's eyes drifted across her face, and fell on the skirt that Chu Rao was holding in his hand, his eyes dimmed.
Zhuang Yuwan was a little nervous when Huo Zeyan looked at her, her fingernails were unconsciously clasped.
Chu Rao threw the gown back on the gift box, and said indifferently, "I'll take the gown, thank you Ms. Zhuang for your kindness, is there anything else Ms. Zhuang wants to do?"
