People have three urgencies, whoever stops and beats

All the guests downstairs had arrived, and all the old people came downstairs at about the same time, and the banquet officially started.

Although Xie Chen was ignored by everyone for a while, but he was neither the protagonist nor the host on this occasion, so naturally he did not follow Zhou Yi.After going downstairs, he saw Xie Ting not long after, and followed Xie Ting all the time.It was also when many people saw him following Xie Ting that they officially identified him as the second child of the Xie family.

The Xie family is actually not considered a big family, and it is far from the status of the Wei family and the Zhou family by more than 01:30.However, Xie Xing became an honest man and also conscientious in doing business. Most of the people from several aristocratic families who were in the business world had a good relationship with him, so they got today's invitation.In addition, Xie Ting's ability is good, and he has a good relationship with the sons and daughters of these families after he started to take over the Xie family's property. The two add up, and the Xie family is not considered a low-level existence in this banquet.

Many people knew about the two sons of the Xie family, but most of them had never met Xie Chen, let alone heard of his position in the Xie family. Many people privately speculated that Xie Chen was Xie Xingcheng's illegitimate son.Unexpectedly, when I saw someone for the first time today, I saw Xie Ting personally leading Xie Chen to socialize, his demeanor was not at all reluctant or dissatisfied, even a little lack of intimacy, it was more like... Xie Ting was clinging to him.

I found out more carefully that although Xie Ting introduced Xie Chen to others with pride most of the time, when he met a few young masters from aristocratic families, it was the young masters who took the initiative to chat with Xie Chen. The appearance of the secondary relationship is excellent.

Xie Ting wanted to bring Xie Chen to know more people, but he was interrupted several times by Li Mingcheng and the others, and they would come up to play with Xie Chen every now and then.After a few times, Xie Ting's face turned black and he was full of displeasure.

Xie Chen laughed: "Brother, restrain yourself, there are so many people watching."

"Are they free? On such an important occasion, I don't know what to do to help the elders entertain, so they all come to you." Xie Ting sullenly, lowered his voice and said angrily: "Who is your brother!"

Xie Chen was helpless: "You, you, brother, you are the best! Restrain yourself, if someone sees you like this, you will lose face in front of my sister-in-law even more."

The same goes for his brother, the bigger he gets, the more he looks like a child.Usually it's okay, but when it comes to my sister-in-law or him, it's completely unreasonable.On the phone, I often complain that I don’t want to find him. It’s fine to ask the parents for a short time. If I have nothing to do, I still have to compete with him at work.This is not a brother, those who don't know think this is Xie Chen's love.Even his sister-in-law said that Xie Ting was ashamed in front of his younger brother.

Xie Ting froze, Weizheng's face turned into that elite look again: "Don't frame me, your sister-in-law can't see it at all. But then again, when did you get so familiar with them?"

"I had dinner once before, so I think it would be more suitable." Xie Chen smiled, and then said, "I only found out today that my teacher is the old man of the Wei family."

When Xie Chen went to school, Xie Ting was abroad all the time, and had never met his teacher, so he didn't know who it was.After hearing what he said, he raised his eyebrows and sighed: "That's quite a fate, I didn't expect Mr. Wei to teach."

"The old man taught very well. Back then, many people in the school who wanted to take his postgraduate entrance examination failed." Xie Chen curled the corner of his mouth and said proudly, "I made your brother's appointment at the time."

"Sure, boy, you're promising." Xie Ting patted him on the shoulder.

The two brothers were chatting when they saw Xie Xingcheng walking from a distance, and frowned when they saw Xie Chen.

Seeing his expression, Xie Ting couldn't help but pull Xie Chenchao behind his back: "Dad, why are you here?"

"You come with me over there, some elders let you get to know each other." After speaking, he looked at Xie Chen who had lost his smile, frowned and scolded in a low voice: "Don't keep pestering your brother, he Still busy."

Xie Chen looked at him with a cold face, until he finished speaking, then turned to look at Xie Ting: "Brother, I'll go find Li Mingcheng and the others first, you are busy."

After speaking, he turned around and left, no longer interested in saying hello to Xie Xingcheng.

Maybe it was his fault for not going home and getting close to his family for so many years.But every time he saw his father's attitude, no matter how great his enthusiasm was, his enthusiasm faded.Sometimes Xie Chen really felt that he was not as respectable as an illegitimate child, at least someone else's illegitimate child was lucky enough to be valued by his father.Unlike his father, he was clearly his own son, but he seemed to have picked it up.

No matter what the relationship is, after a long time, there will be nothing left.

Fortunately, he doesn't force it now, let alone need it.

Seeing that Xie Chen left so simply, Xie Xingcheng became even more angry: "What kind of attitude is he! Is he well-bred? After so many years, he hasn't said to go back and have a look. I don't know if his parents will be worried!"

Xie Ting frowned, and finally couldn't help but said: "Dad, please don't say a few words! If you and Mom are really worried about him, if you can really talk to him, why hasn't he come home for so many years?"

Xie Xingcheng was rebuffed by Xie Ting, he didn't react for a while, and he said after a while: "I am a father, can't say a few words about him? Look at what he looks like now, if it wasn't for him back then, would your mother have suffered such a serious crime!"

"Aren't you the one who made my mother suffer? I think it's good for Chenchen to go home and suffer the cold treatment. From top to bottom, there is not even a servant who knows that he is the second son of the Xie family. Not much, I don't want to go back." After Xie Ting finished speaking, he turned and went to the other side, not saving face for his father for the first time.

For so many years, Xie Ting didn't blame his parents.Back then when his younger brother was born with dystocia, his mother suffered. Could it be that Xie Chen didn't suffer?The baby weighing more than three catties barely survived after lying in the incubator for more than a month, and was almost sent to the grandparents in the end.When he grew up, he never got good face from his parents, and he always talked about the difficult childbirth, as if Xie Chen was born wrong.In the final analysis, there is this younger brother, isn't it because of his father?A good home, because of such a trivial matter, it has become what it is now.Telling it out will make people laugh.

In all fairness, if it were Xie Ting himself, he might not be able to reach Xie Chen's level.It is even more impossible to imagine what Xie Chen would have looked like if he hadn't been protected by him since he was a child.Now my younger brother is relying on himself, he is capable and does a good job, he has a car and a house, he doesn’t have to worry about food and clothing, and he lives happily.Does it have to be right under their noses, being talked about by them every day about that little shit that has nothing to do with him, and grow up to be a gloomy and twisted person?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, Xie Ting found a place where no one was around, and called his wife.After being coaxed for a long time, he barely got better.

Fu Jiaqi who received the complaint call out of nowhere: ...?

Xie Xingcheng's words did not have much influence on Xie Chen.After all, I have been used to it for so many years, because this kind of thing makes me uncomfortable, and it is completely unnecessary.Do what you should do for your children, and there is no need to meddle in the rest. Anyway, his father doesn't like him, so he simply won't let him see it.

He wandered around to the end of Li Mingcheng's group, and as soon as he approached, Duan Zi pulled him to drink a glass of wine.

"Hey! You are here, the big guy is waiting for you!" Xiao Minghang jumped and handed him a glass of champagne, and said with a smile: "How, I heard that you just went to the elderly activity center? Do you think that old men and old ladies They're very interesting."

"Pfft—" Xie Chen took a sip of wine, coughed for a long time before laughing, "You guys really call that an activity center for the elderly." Call.

Li Mingyu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Every time old men and women get together, they like to play cards and chess. They can play for a whole day in one room. After a long time, everyone calls it that."

Xie Chen silently gave a thumbs up.

"We heard from the old men just now that Grandpa Wei is your teacher?" Duan Zi bumped into Xie Chen and said, "Grandpa Wei used to talk about the glorious deeds of his students. As a person, how do you feel about it?"

Xie Chen had no choice but to say, "What can I feel? I just learned about it. Why is this story spread, and the old men have nothing to talk about?"

"You don't know," Li Mingcheng shook his head: "This group of old men and old ladies get together every three days, and they have already talked about the younger generation. Only you have only heard his name but never met him. Today, you met him, but Don't have a good chat. You just watch, and in the next three days or so, they will call you to join the game. That's how Lu Tong came over back then."

Xie Chen quickly waved his hand: "Forget it, I can't bear it. I can't deal with elders the most."

"It's also simple." Duan Zi smiled with squinted eyes: "Losing a few more times will make them happy, and if you think you're stupid, you won't be asked to play. Or you can imitate them, scare them, and then If you win every time, they won't be willing to play with you. Let me tell you, Xiu Qi is now on their blacklist, and he never shows mercy when he always wins, and he never coaxes them to make them regret their games."

"What are you doing?" Wei Xiuqi came over with a glass of wine in one hand, with a half-smile: "I've heard you speak ill of me from afar."

Duan Zi choked for a moment, and hurried to save him: "Heavenly conscience, I praise you."

Wei Xiuqi shook his head: "Don't listen to them, they will know to smear me behind their backs."

Xie Chen looked at him with a smile, but kept silent, just joking.

Li Mingcheng said suddenly: "Hey, do you know Zhou Yi's arrangements for tonight?"

"I know," Xiao Minghang said, "Didn't you ask for marriage? Do you think we should surprise them both?"

Wei Xiuqi sneered: "You can do it, you will be frightened every time."

"I heard that Zhou Yi had already found someone to decorate the house when he left home in the morning." Li Mingcheng looked at Xie Chen: "As his general, he didn't arrange any tasks for you?"

Xie Chen took a sip of his wine, and said leisurely: "I don't need any tasks, my only task is to agree to his marriage proposal."

Wei Xiuqi frowned: "What the hell?"

A few people burst out laughing, making Xie Chen raise his eyebrows: "What are you laughing at, isn't it? I don't agree, how dare he propose to Lu Tong?"

"That makes sense, you have to agree first, right, Brother Wei." Duan Zi patted Wei Xiuqi, smiling connotatively.

The author has something to say:

Thank you everyone, I came back alive, I still have a little stuffy nose and cough, and I am basically fine.

Wei Xiuqi:? ? ?What the hell?Say it again? ? ?Where is my 40-meter broadsword? Bring it to me! ! !
