The movement of the fingers only paused for a moment, and was forced to continue by the master.

Some people heard the flaws in the song, and subconsciously frowned. After their eyes fell on the people on the balcony, they felt that there was nothing unforgivable about it, and even helped them find an excuse.

The picturesque people are playing beautiful music, which is something to enjoy and not to find fault with. Today is Duan Ling's birthday, so he must be too tired.

If Xie Ning could hear other people's heartfelt voices, he might have vomited blood. After playing music for a long time, it would also have an added effect on the aura of the heartthrob.

The others were intoxicated by the music, only his right eyelid twitched violently.

...That look just now was murderous.

Liu Chen moved to his side at some point, and handed him a glass of champagne: "How did you and Maojuan meet?"

The melody of the piano on the balcony accelerated, and the sound of the keys was obviously louder. Xie Ning looked away and said casually, "I used to be at the same school."

"Yangcheng?"

"Ah."

He made Liu Chen wrong with his guilty look. He Manjuan didn't know that he was a fool, but his friends all knew it.

A face he had never seen before at a banquet, coupled with his guilty conscience at the moment, Liu Chen subconsciously felt that He Manjuan had been cheated, and just now Xie Ning was outside the crowd, so he didn't pay much attention to He Manjuan at all. Looking left and right in the hall, as if looking for a bigger fish?

"Zizhen, is this your classmate?" Liu Chen raised his head and asked, "I haven't been back to City A for a long time, so I'm a bit unfamiliar."

A few seconds later, Gu Zizhen turned his gaze away from the second floor, glanced at Xie Ning, and the smile on his mouth faded.

"No, it seems that something went wrong at home, and I changed schools two months ago." As he spoke, Gu Zizhen turned the expensive watch on his wrist: "You should have eaten his candy, the limited edition will be printed The boss's face is very distinctive."

The only ones who were still studying in Yangcheng were Gu Zizhen and He Manjuan. Shen Yinghan was talking with someone on the other side of the hall. As soon as Gu Zizhen finished speaking, the eyes of the rest of them changed.

Thank you Candy Factory is quite famous in City A, but it is only limited to City A. It is not a chain company, let alone listed. In their eyes, it is just a small workshop that is not popular.

The piano sound on the second floor came to an end, and there was warm applause in the venue. Xie Ning clapped along, and showed a harmless smile to Duan Ling. Duan Ling fixed a glance at him, turned and left the balcony.

"Limited edition candies?" As soon as his ears were pulled away from the music, Xie Ning only caught Gu Zizhen's last words: "What's wrong?"

Gu Zizhen smiled: "Didn't there be a limited edition for Christmas last year, why not this year?"

Xie Ning frowned, how could the supporting actor know what to ask.

Even if He Manjuan didn't spread the word, he was sure that Gu Zizhen must know the situation of Xie's family.

"Thank you for your attention, candy, do you usually like to eat it?"

The strategy of not offending the male supporting role has become a thing of the past. Xie Ning imitated him and showed a fake smile, his voice was still clean and soft: "I still have last year's limited edition at home. It is well preserved and the price is negotiable."

Gu Zizhen's smile turned cold, and he showed elegance in front of others: "If there is a chance."

Observing the two of them calmly, Liu Chenfu took another sip of the champagne in his hand, and let out a long ending sound of 'um' with an unclear expression.

Xie Ning looked at the wine glass in his hand, his thoughts diverged.

In the original book, how did Duan Ling get tricked?

The most likely thing is to put drugs in the wine, but if you can do this quietly, and want to embarrass Duan Ling under the noses of so many people, it can't be Gu Zizhen, right?

It doesn't make sense, Gu Zizhen is not so mad at this stage, the consequences will only make Duan Ling more repulsive to other people.

So, it was done by someone who didn't like Duan Ling?

Before he could figure it out, the wine glass in his hand was suddenly taken away, and the familiar scent passed by, and he subconsciously relaxed.

"Did you drink?" Duan Ling who came from upstairs asked with a dark face.

Just asking, he raised his hand and wanted to open Xie Ning's mouth, as if he wanted to check for the smell of alcohol.

"part…"

Young Master Duan suddenly appeared, Liu Chen and the others were about to say hello, when he raised his hand to touch his face.

Putting this action on Duan Ling's body, it was almost like a ghost's upper body.

The girl with the diamond necklace opened her mouth exaggeratedly, and then remembered the problem of manners. She quickly covered her mouth and looked to the side, only to find that everyone was equally surprised.

That... that's Duan Ling!

In this group, none of them tried to approach this ancestor by pretending to be dead, and they were beaten more and more miserable. They were obviously older than Duan Ling, and they couldn't beat them.

He Manjuan, this silly Baitian, was the one who received the least beatings, but the frequency was a little more. Back then, Liu Chen and Gu Zizhen had broken their arms.

"I didn't drink it!" Xie Ning broke away from his hand, and after the air-conditioning around his body became more obvious, he added: "Really."

During the vacation at the villa, he really knew how much he could drink. The matter hadn't been resolved yet, so he didn't dare to drink alcohol.

It's just that he didn't expect that Duan Ling left such a deep shadow, which instead made him wonder what he was doing at that time.

After confirming that he was fine, Duan Ling turned his gaze to the others, and his gaze was especially long on Liu Chen, which made Liu Chen break out in a cold sweat.

"Want a drink?" He asked coolly.

He Meimei said: "Brother Ling, Liu Chen insists on having a drink with his sister-in-law, no matter how much she persuades her, she won't listen."

Not understanding the situation at all, Liu Chen glared at He Meimei and stammered, "He, isn't he your brother's boyfriend?"

He Meimei smiled sweetly, as if she was about to grab Duan Ling's arm, Duan Ling turned her eyes sideways, immediately withdrew her hands in embarrassment, straightened her back and said, "Yes, he is my brother Ling's boyfriend."

Liu Chen: "..."

"He is the one? That who!" Someone suddenly said in surprise.

As soon as Duan Ling came over, the focus shifted. He raised his head and drank the champagne in his hand, put down his glass and raised his eyebrows.

"Who is that? Do you know him?"

The man covered his mouth and stopped talking.

It's one thing to ridicule behind the scenes, but few people have the courage to do so in front of the deity.

But things have come to this, Xie Ning's identity is clearly revealed, and it is such a white lotus that looks easy to bully that makes Young Master Duan fall in love?

Just now he said that Duan Ling didn't like this type of Liu Chen, his face turned blue.

Xie Ning, who was deliberately ignored by the crowd just now, received more than a dozen pairs of attention salutes in an instant, and even people from a little distance looked over. As he said, he seems to be really famous.

Duan Ling frowned, and seemed to be disgusted by their reaction. In front of the crowd, he didn't ask Xie Ning directly, "Why are you here?"

Duan Ling grabbed his wrist and said in a deep voice, "Come with me."

Xie Ning also wanted to chat with him alone, so he nodded hurriedly.

However, at this moment, Gu Xipiao, who had been circling in the arena, approached gracefully, and the young men and women sitting on the sofa stood up at the same time, changing their casualness just now.

Nodding to them, her gaze stayed on Xie Ning for a while, Gu Xi raised her red lips, "Ling'er, Mr. Han is looking for you, it's time."

In front of the hall, Han Qian looked over from a distance. On such an occasion, his expression was quite reserved.

"I'm bored."

Duan Ling scolded impetuously, for some reason, she did not refuse uncharacteristically, but let go of his hand and took a deep look at him.

When passing by Wei Shuangnan, Duan Ling patted him on the shoulder, Wei Shuangnan didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

Xie Ning subconsciously wanted to follow. He didn't know when the person in the dark would make a move, so he could only stay on guard. Who knew that there was a sudden pull on his wrist.

"Don't go there." Wei Shuangnan said, "He'll be back later."

With so many pairs of eyes staring at him, it probably wasn't his move now, Xie Ning opened his mouth, and could only watch Duan Ling go away.

After Duan Ling left, others began to question him.

Some were purely curious, some were slightly hostile, and some were silently observing. Xie Ning responded politely and focused his attention on Duan Ling in the center of the hall.

He and Han Qian were talking and the other was listening, Han Qian pointed to the outside of the room, and said something, Duan Ling seemed to hesitate, but followed him out.

Xie Ning was a little anxious when people were about to leave his sight.

He walked through several people and said, "Sorry, I'm going out to get some fresh air."

Guessing that they should be looking at the Christmas tree, Xie Ning walked straight to the rear courtyard.

Because he was walking too fast, he almost bumped into someone as soon as he stepped out of the hall. He was about to apologize, but the other person suddenly bent down and picked something up from the ground.

The weather in December is really cold, and the courtyard of the Duan family is as bright as day.

The man in white casual clothes put his things back into his pockets without haste. After seeing his face clearly, Xie Ning's pupils shrank.

It turned out to be the infirmary teacher I met in Yangcheng, and it was really him I saw just now.

The man's clothes didn't look like he was here for a banquet, those impressive red phoenix eyes swept over him, and he said sternly, "Apologize."

Xie Ning paused, and quickly said, "I'm sorry."

He was the one who bumped into someone recklessly, and there is nothing wrong with apologizing, but it always feels a little weird to be asked by the other party.

He didn't have time to think too much, he walked past the man, and the faint smell of disinfectant wafted through his nose, not as good as Duan Ling's smell, but it was enough to leave a memory on people.

Han Qian really brought Duan Ling under the Christmas tree.

In the distance, Han Qian seemed to be introducing the things on the Christmas tree, and the lights on the Christmas tree switched on and off. Duan Ling had a cold face and didn't respond, and she didn't look strange.

Xie Ning was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but in the next second, when the colored light switched to bright white, he found that Duan Ling's standing posture suddenly froze.

Han Qian raised his hand, took off a photo and showed it to him. After getting closer, he was about to speak, but his voice stopped on his lips.

Because he was afraid that Duan Ling would leave impatiently, he was very eager to introduce, so he didn't control the distance between the two of them. If he moved closer at this moment, he would rub Duan Ling's shoulder, but Duan Ling didn't respond .

Duan Ling didn't dodge? !

Han Qian was surprised, and forgot what he wanted to say, especially after hearing Duan Ling's suppressed panting.

"Duan Ling, are you..."

In the middle of the question, someone suddenly pushed his body hard.

Han Qian staggered and nearly fell, looked up and saw Xie Ning, who had been ignored by him all this time, grabbed Duan Ling's wrist and walked back, not forgetting to turn his head and give him a cold look.

In the hall, the banquet was reaching its climax. Even if the main character was not there, it would not prevent Gu Xipiao from standing in front of the hall and speaking a polite thank you speech in a soft voice.

"what happened?"

A thin layer of sweat oozes from the forehead, Duan Ling obviously also sensed the strangeness of the body, and squeezed out a sentence from her throat.

Xie Ning didn't know how to explain it, he didn't even know why the plot was advanced again.

Obviously, it happened just after the banquet was almost over!

He gritted his teeth and said, "Go up first."

Without his reminding, Duan Ling knew the seriousness of the problem best. The medicine had just started to take effect, and his body was not weak yet. As soon as he entered the hall, he broke away from Xie Ning's hand.
