Aunt Xue is very busy [Love is deep and rainy]
Chapter 56 Aunt Xue is very busy
Lu Yiping looked at the photo in her hand in disbelief.
In the photo, He Shuhuan is holding Ruping's waist from behind with a smile on his face, the tenderness in his eyes is almost overflowing, almost the same as the way He Shuhuan looks at her in normal times.
The fingers that were holding the photo tightly were almost bursting out due to too much force. Lu Yiping's mind went blank, but the pain in her heart distorted her expression. For a moment, the hatred in her heart was almost overflowing. disaster.
Du Fei, who was picking up photos with Lu Yiping, realized that there seemed to be something wrong with Lu Yiping after picking up all the photos.
But he didn't think much about it, but after seeing the photo in Lu Yiping's hand, he secretly called out "no" in his heart, and then carefully wanted to take that photo out of Lu Yiping's hand secretly.
It's just that Lu Yiping, who looked like she was in a daze, quickly put the hand holding the photo behind her back when Du Fei was about to touch the photo.
Du Fei, whose little trick was discovered, could only push his glasses in embarrassment, and then tentatively asked Lu Yiping, "...Then, can you give me that photo, and I will put it back in the bag."
Lu Yiping didn't pay attention to what he said, but suddenly raised her head, staring at Lu Ruping who had already walked in front of her.
Although I have already guessed which photo is in Yiping's hand, because today is her birthday, and because there are many guests gathered here at this moment, even if I am very tired of Yiping's random gift, and still use such a Looking at her with a treacherous expression, Lu Ruping still had to make herself smile.
She looked at Lu Yiping's almost hateful eyes, and after a severe tremor in her heart, she smiled and said, "Yiping, what are you holding in your hand?"
Lu Ruping never thought that such a day would come.
Lu Yiping, who has always been regarded by her as a relative, would look at herself with eyes full of hatred who wished she could eat her flesh and drink her blood.
And all of this is just for a man, and a not-so-good misunderstanding.
Under Lu Yiping's icy eyes, the last bit of warmth left in her heart towards this half-sister faltered.
Hearing Lu Ruping's question, Lu Yiping sneered, "Don't you know what I got?"
Lu Ruping's eyes flicked over the parchment bag in Du Fei's hand, and then landed on the distorted photo that Lu Yiping was holding tightly in his hand, she lowered her eyes and said, "This is the picture we went out a few days ago. A photo taken during an outing. When I accidentally tripped that day, He Shuhuan supported me from behind, so I didn't fall to the ground."
After finishing speaking, she raised her head and looked at Lu Yiping frankly, "I remember that Du Fei took a picture of that scene, and he sent that photo as a gift today."
Lu Ruping's eyes were too clear.
She was telling Lu Yiping in this way that no matter whether the photo in her hand was the one she thought of or not, she had no ambiguous relationship with He Shuhuan.
People in the Lu family are born with very keen nerves.
Therefore, Lu Yiping caught the meaning of Lu Ruping's words without missing a beat, but at the same time, she also heard a little carelessness from Lu Ruping's words.
Such a solemn and understated tone seemed to be telling Lu Yiping that she, Lu Ruping, had no idea about He Shuhuan at all. What Lu Yiping was holding, caring about, and entangled issues, to Lu Ruping, was just a problem that shouldn't exist at all. Surprise!
This attitude of avoiding He Shuhuan, when Lu Yiping recalled the affection and tenderness in He Shuhuan's eyes in the photo, turned into a huge sword shining with cold light, which deeply hurt the pride and self-esteem that Lu Yiping tried to maintain.
She chuckled almost in embarrassment, and looked at Lu Ruping sarcastically. Lu Yiping handed the photo of He Shuhuan hugging Lu Ruping to Lu Ruping: "Are you trying to tell me that this was just an accident?!"
Lu Ruping's gaze flicked over that photo, and it really was the one she didn't want to see at all.
Seeing the defense in Yiping's eyes, Lu Ruping took a deep breath, and finally explained to Lu Yiping: "Yes, believe it or not, this was an accident, even an accident that I didn't want it to exist at all. Yiping , I know He Shuhuan likes you, and I have my self-esteem, so I don't have any thoughts about him at all. Are you satisfied with what I said?"
Although Lu Ruping has a good temper, she is not really a noodle maker who can be flattened and rounded by others.
Under Yiping's aggressive gaze and almost questioning tone, she couldn't help feeling a little restless in her heart.
At this moment, for some reason, she suddenly remembered what her mother had said to her.
That was back then, when she first met He Shuhuan.
At that time, because she liked He Shuhuan's personable and gentle temperament very much, so when she communicated with her mother and Mengping, her mother saw that she had a slight affection for He Shuhuan.
At that time, my mother said that those men who look gentle are actually the type that are most likely to be deceived by young girls like them.
Erhao also said that He Shuhuan is a man who is gentle with all women.
And that kind of fraternal tenderness, who can say that it is not a kind of cruelty.
Although Lu Ruping only heard those words once, somehow, she never forgot them.
Lu Ruping looked at Lu Yiping.
Just because of that one photo, just because of the man in the photo, Lu Yiping was able to generate so much hostility towards her without asking.
What kind of magical power does He Shuhuan have that can make Lu Yiping, who has always been proud, worry so much that she loses her mind and pretends.
In the past, even if she didn't like her anymore, Yiping would never look at her with such straightforward disgust or even hatred.
At that moment, Lu Ruping was almost disheartened towards Lu Yiping.
But Lu Yiping didn't intend to let Lu Ruping go, "I'm not satisfied! How could I be satisfied? Lu Ruping, I always thought that even if you are Aunt Xue's daughter, at least your nature is gentle and kind. But I never thought that, You would do such a thing! You clearly know that I like He Shuhuan, you... ah!"
The photo tightly held in her hands was pulled away in the blink of an eye, and with a pain in her wrist, the words that Lu Yiping was about to blurt were immediately swallowed into her stomach because of the piercing pain in her wrist.
"Lu Yiping, you'd better think carefully about what you're saying. Today is Ruping's birthday, and there are so many guests at home, it's not an occasion where you can act wild!"
It was not someone else who said these words in a cold voice, but Lu Erhao, who had been controlling the audience from the sidelines since the beginning of the banquet.
When Lu Yiping came, Lu Erhao was very displeased with her.
He is not Lu Ruping, and he still has some illusions and pity for Lu Yiping in his heart.
If Lu Ruping, Lu Mengping, and Lu Erjie were all Wang Xueqin's children, so he had to devote some attention to bear the responsibility of being an older brother, then Lu Yiping, who was half-brother with the original owner, even held strong hostility towards Wang Xueqin. The girl is just a dispensable stranger to him.
Of course, after learning what kind of disaster this stranger would bring to Wang Xueqin and the Lu family, Lu Erhao put Lu Yiping on the blacklist of the most hated people. Because of the incidents involving Wang Xueqin, he was very wary of Lu Yiping.
So when he saw Lu Yiping and Lu Ruping faintly forming a confrontational situation, Lu Erhao immediately came between the two of them, and quickly stopped Lu Yiping's next words.
Although I haven't really felt it yet, Lu Erhao has heard about Lu Yiping's strong destructive power that turns people on their backs wherever they go.
Today is Ruping's birthday party that mother and the Lu family have prepared for many days. If Lu Yiping thinks she can act wild here, then don't blame him for being rude to her!
He, Lu Erhao, has always been very protective of his weaknesses!
"Heh!" She twitched the wrist tightly held by Lu Erhao fiercely. When she failed, Lu Yiping sneered and looked at Lu Erhao who was looking at her with an unkind expression, and then looked at Lu Erhao who was standing behind Lu Erhao, and was about to speak Lu Ruping looked at them again, and the sarcasm in her eyes was almost solidified, "Very good... Lu Erhao, Lu Ruping, you are indeed a family. Only I am an outsider, so I deserve to be bullied by you."
Seeing that Lu Yiping still had something to say, Lu Erhao didn't intend to get entangled with her. The movement on their side was not small, and they had already attracted the attention of many people. The preparations for a long time will be in vain, and Ruping's happy birthday will be completely ruined.
So Lu Erhao just said something to Lu Yiping in a low voice, "Does Auntie Pei know that you are here today?"
The words, which were almost without any emotion, made Lu Yiping's original struggling movement suddenly stop.
Fu Wenpei was Lu Yiping's only weakness, so when Lu Erhao suddenly mentioned her mother, Lu Yiping subconsciously had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, the next moment, he heard Lu Erhao's cold voice, which rang in his ears, "Let me guess, what are you here for today. Aunt Pei should know that today is Ruping's birthday, so she should have stopped her." You came here. But you still came. Why did you come today? Because you know that He Shuhuan is also here. Am I right?"
Seeing Lu Er's proud and calm look, Lu Yiping gritted her teeth, "Yes, I know He Shuhuan will come here today."
Lu Yiping is a person who is too proud to lie, even in front of her enemies.
Seeing Lu Yiping's calm eyes, Lu Erhao let go of her wrist, "You are a smart person, you can't fail to see that Ruping has no ambiguous feelings for He Shuhuan at all. So don't worry about it just because of your littleness. Think about it, just do things that make everyone unable to get off the stage. Believe me, if you make trouble here today, I will let Aunt Pei know what you did here tonight. Let her see that she is a lady raised by a big family. How does a good daughter out there compete with others at the Lu family's banquet? I, Lu Erhao, will do what I say."
After finishing speaking, Lu Erhao tore the photo taken out of Lu Yiping's hands into pieces neatly under Lu Yiping's almost hateful gaze, and in the silence of Lu Ruping and Du Fei, and stuffed it into his trouser pocket, as if As if nothing happened, ignore Lu Yiping.
Turning around to embrace Lu Ruping, Lu Erhao smiled and said to Lu Ruping: "Ruping, what are you doing here, everyone is waiting for you to dance the opening dance."
It was only then that Lu Ruping recovered from Erhao's sudden appearance just now and the almost threatening words she said to Yiping.
She was a little worried and wanted to look back at Yiping, but when she saw Er Hao's emotionless eyes, she stopped thinking in her heart.
Lu Ruping has never been an idiot, so she can naturally see that what Er Hao did just now is entirely to protect her.
But what Er Hao did just now is undoubtedly torn face with Yiping.
"Er Hao... Is it really okay for us to treat Yiping like that just now?" After much hesitation, Lu Ruping finally asked.
Lu Erhao just patted her head, "What to do with so many thoughts, anyway, what she did today didn't save us any face. I guess you are the only one who remembers the little affection we had when we were young."
Lu Erhao's words happened to touch the reason why Lu Ruping had nostalgia for Lu Yiping in her heart.
But also because of Lu Yiping's unkind appearance today, making the visitor questioning the teacher, Lu Ruping couldn't say anything to refute Erhao for a while.
And... what Erhao said is not wrong.
Suppressing the sourness surging up from the bottom of her heart, Lu Ruping glanced at the guests in the hall who were watching her and whispering, and had to work hard to pull herself together.
Er Hao was right, everyone was still waiting for her to dance the opening dance, she couldn't spoil everyone's interest.
After all, today is her Lu Ruping's birthday.
Just as she was thinking about letting Er Hao come and dance the opening dance with her, there was a muffled "bang" from the gate.
While Lu Ruping was taken aback, she subconsciously looked at where Yiping was standing before, and found that the person who was standing there just now had disappeared, and He Shuhuan, who had been absent just now, was listening to Du Fei said something anxiously.
He Shuhuan didn't know how all of this happened, he just went to the bathroom for a while, but when he came out, he saw Yiping standing there with red eyes, as if she had been greatly wronged.
Seeing Yiping like that, his heart felt like a needle pricking his heart, the pain was terribly painful, he almost didn't even think about it, he rushed to Yiping immediately, wanting to ask her who made her wronged.
But something that surprised him soon happened.
When Yiping saw him appearing, she gave him a look that was so complicated that he couldn't understand it at all, and then, like the wind, she ran towards the gate without saying a word.
The bottom of his heart tightened, He Shuhuan didn't know why, the look in Yiping's eyes just now made him feel very uneasy, he almost didn't even think about it, and rushed out following Yiping's footsteps.
But Du Fei stopped him.
From Du Fei's mouth, He Shuhuan heard about what happened between Yiping, Ruping and Erhao in the short period of time just now.
All because of that damn photo!
He knew in his heart that Yiping must have misunderstood what was going on between him and Ruping. After He Shuhuan gave Du Fei a hard look, he looked at Ruping who was standing with Erhao in a complicated way, looking at Ruping from a distance.
At that moment, He Shuhuan clearly felt the wavering in his heart.
But then, after seeing the indifference in Ruping's eyes, He Shuhuan gritted his teeth, and finally walked quickly towards Mr. Lu.
After greeting Mr. Lu and Wang Xueqin, He Shuhuan almost ran away, followed Lu Yiping's trail, and quickly disappeared from the sight of many Lu family guests.
For the interaction between Lu Yiping, Lu Ruping, He Shuhuan, and Lu Erhao just now, most of the people present almost all saw it in their eyes.
At the beginning, it was clear that there seemed to be something wrong with Lu Ruping and He Shuhuan when people talked about it, but after the girl named Lu Yiping came in, the plot took a turn for the worse and became turbulent and confusing?
But seeing how He Shuhuan ran out so nervously following Lu Yiping just now, everyone wondered, could it be that Lu Ruping was ruthless towards He Shuhuan?In fact, the person He Shuhuan likes is that girl named Lu Yiping? !
Unexpectedly, if you come to a birthday party, you can see such a wonderful scene of two women competing for one man. After the three protagonists went to save one, the visiting guests finally focused their attention on Lu Ruping.
As for how many are waiting to see the jokes and how many are gloating, Lu Ruping is not clear at this time.
But to some extent, she also felt that many of the gazes cast on her were not kind.
Noticing that her mother and Mengping's eyes were full of worry on her body, Lu Ruping's originally tense heart gradually returned to a normal heartbeat unconsciously.
Obviously, because of Yiping's arrival and departure, everyone is now waiting to see how she will end up.
Although today's unhappiness had to be said to be unexpected disasters, since she is the protagonist of this banquet, then she, Lu Ruping, will not lose face to the Lu family!
Thinking of this, under the gaze of everyone, Lu Ruping came to the side of the conductor of the band, ordered a piece of dance music for the opening dance, and then suppressed the initial idea of wanting Erhao to help her dance the opening dance together, and walked With graceful steps, she stood still in front of Ye Lin who had been standing in the corner.
Lu Ruping took a deep breath and said to Ye Lin in a warm voice, "Doctor Ye, I don't know, can I invite you to dance this opening dance with me? "
Ye Lin, who had been paying attention to the interaction between Lu Ruping, Lu Yiping and the others, raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that Lu Ruping would pay attention to him.
Almost nine out of ten of the young girls present had been shut down by Ye Lin just now, so even though it was the first time they saw Ye Lin, most of them knew that this man named Ye Lin was nothing but a jerk. The super difficult master who doesn't get in.
This Lu Ruping invited Ye Lin to accompany her in the opening dance in full view. Could it be that she and Ye Lin knew each other a long time ago?
But even if they knew each other, Ye Lin might not give Lu Ruping face, right?
Many people are not sure what Ye Lin will do, after all, this man's aura is too indifferent, making all the girls almost return home.
So everyone was waiting to see Ye Lin reject Lu Ruping's invitation with the mentality of watching the show.
But immediately after, the girls present saw the scene that almost caused them to shred their handkerchiefs——
The man who had always been cold and whose face was carved out of ice actually raised the corners of his lips slightly after looking at Lu Ruping for a while.
That smile that seemed to bloom in an instant made all the wives and mothers present couldn't help but blush and heartbeat.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Lin nodded slightly to Lu Ruping, then took a step forward, bowed slightly, drew an elegant arc with his right hand in the air, and finally stopped in front of his chest, making a medieval gentleman's invitation, and then accepted the invitation. Lu Ruping raised her catkin to embrace Lu Ruping's slender waist, and nodded to the conductor, indicating that it was time to start.
Then, at the same time as the gorgeous and cheerful music sounded, the tall and handsome man and the elegant and light girl slid onto the dance floor in one step.
This scene almost shattered everyone's eyeballs, and immediately let everyone kick the gossip between Lu Ruping, Lu Yiping, and He Shuhuan out of the blue, and focus all their attention on Lu Ruping and Ye Lin.
What?You said He Shuhuan?With a man like Ye Lin who would dump He Shuhuan for several blocks at a glance, Lu Ruping would be blind to fall in love with that gentle He Shuhuan, right? !
I really can’t blame the onlookers for being too fond of the new and disliking the old. It’s because Ye Lin and He Shuhuan’s strengths and weaknesses are too obvious, so when everyone sees Lu Ruping and Ye Lin standing together, they naturally regard He Shuhuan as “having an ambiguous relationship with Lu Ruping.” Excluded from the list of "men".
Now, what everyone wants to know is, how did Lu Ruping make Ye Lin, a cold man who is obviously not good at oil and salt, agree to dance with her?
In fact, not only the onlookers were puzzled by this, but Lu Ruping, who was dancing with Ye Lin, looked at Ye Lin in surprise at this time.
Although when she went to invite Ye Lin, she more or less guessed that Ye Lin might agree to dance the opening dance with her, but seeing Ye Lin agree so happily, she still felt...a little subtle.
After all, he was such a man who was rumored to be almost insane in St. John's.
Thinking of this, Lu Ruping raised her head slightly, looked straight into Ye Lin's obsidian-black eyes, and thanked Ye Lin seriously: "Doctor Ye, thank you for agreeing to dance with me in the opening dance."
Ye Lin slightly lowered his head and glanced at Lu Ruping, whose eyes were full of sincerity and gratitude. On his always cold face, there was a little warmth at the corner of his lips, "No need."
In fact, even if Lu Ruping didn't come to invite him just now, he would take the initiative to invite her to the opening dance.
After all, this matter was solemnly entrusted to him by Lu Erhao.
Thinking of the man whose personality is quite similar to his own, but who is obviously better at disguising, Ye Lin's eyes flicked across the hall one by one, and when he saw Lu Erhao who was bowing his head and talking to the mistress of the Lu family, he raised his head slightly. Raise the corners of your lips.
In fact, he never expected that he would make such a friend with the same temperament as him at this banquet designed by his little cousin.
Moreover, he met again the girl he had met more than once in St. John's.
In the palm, the warm and soft touch was clearly conveyed to the brain along the slender waist that was constantly shaking, and the place close at hand was the faint fragrance from the girl's body.
Different from those rich aromas that almost itch the tip of the nose from the ladies of aristocratic families who often go in and out of various banquets, the smell from Lu Ruping's body is just like her, warm and moist like water, but also has the tolerance and smoothness of water.
It doesn't make people feel bored.
Thinking of this, Ye Lin felt for the first time in the blind date banquets that had been accumulating the maximum number of times in the past few years, it seems that women are not all such annoying creatures.
At least the girl who is in his arms at this moment, dancing with him, and always paying attention to keeping the distance between the two of them, is a very knowledgeable and interesting existence.
And what's even more rare is that Lu Ruping's family seems to be quite to his liking.
Thinking about it this way, it seems a little far away.
Looking down at Lu Ruping who was still dancing seriously, the corners of Ye Lin's cold eyes softened a little.
After the opening dance, all the ladies stared at Ye Lin covetously, planning to imitate Lu Ruping and invite Ye Lin to dance after the first dance.
Who knew that Ye Lin would still dance with Lu Ruping in the next second and third dances!
This almost made the fire of jealousy in the eyes of the girls almost solidify!
But at this moment, Lu Ruping, who was almost cooked by those scorching eyes, felt very helpless in her heart.
Who knows, in fact, when the first opening dance was about to finish, after thanking Ye Lin again, she planned to dance the second dance with Er Hao.
Who knew that Ye Lin didn't intend to change at all, and continued to slide her onto the dance floor when the second dance music played.
When Lu Ruping asked him in surprise why he didn't change his partner, she coldly said "Trouble", which made Lu Ruping's words choke in her throat.
Although at the beginning Lu Ruping did dance the opening dance with Ye Lin to divert everyone's attention from the gossip between her and He Shuhuan, but...she didn't want everyone to misunderstand what was really going on between her and Ye Lin. ...
Noticing the gazes of the guests, after Ye Lin couldn't help but step into the melody of the second song with her, Lu Ruping couldn't help but wailed from the bottom of her heart, feeling that she didn't know what tomorrow would be like. When she went to St. John's school, would she ever come out whole—
You know, among the friends who came to her birthday party today, there are also a few St. John's students!
Although she also knew that the "trouble" Ye Lin mentioned was really troublesome to deal with those girls who were staring at him.
However, Lu Ruping really felt that she might not be blessed to accept such a good job of giving up her life to accompany a gentleman.
Speaking of Dr. Ye, don't you feel that the eyes of those girls are almost poking us into a sieve? !
Lu Ruping couldn't help but sigh while her face was full of bullying in her heart.
Well, no matter what, it was she who took the initiative to invite Ye Lin to be a shield, so now, Ye Lin asked her to help as a shield.
After working hard to build herself up mentally, Lu Ruping calmed down her mind, and then continued to follow Ye Lin's movements and step on the dance steps seriously.
After all, no matter what, she couldn't continue to be ashamed today!
Lu Ruping, who was trying to straighten her back and small chest, did not notice at all that the gaze of the man above her head looking at her gradually changed slightly, from the original indifferent to the last thoughtful.
She didn't notice that after she went to invite Ye Lin to the opening dance, the rest of the Lu family, from Wang Xueqin to Lu Erhao, from Lu Mengping to Lu Erjie, and even Mr. Lu, gradually gathered together, and all of them, They all stared at the two people who were embracing and dancing together.
In those eyes, there was a deep sense of inquiry, excitement and ambiguity, no less than that of other guests.
In the photo, He Shuhuan is holding Ruping's waist from behind with a smile on his face, the tenderness in his eyes is almost overflowing, almost the same as the way He Shuhuan looks at her in normal times.
The fingers that were holding the photo tightly were almost bursting out due to too much force. Lu Yiping's mind went blank, but the pain in her heart distorted her expression. For a moment, the hatred in her heart was almost overflowing. disaster.
Du Fei, who was picking up photos with Lu Yiping, realized that there seemed to be something wrong with Lu Yiping after picking up all the photos.
But he didn't think much about it, but after seeing the photo in Lu Yiping's hand, he secretly called out "no" in his heart, and then carefully wanted to take that photo out of Lu Yiping's hand secretly.
It's just that Lu Yiping, who looked like she was in a daze, quickly put the hand holding the photo behind her back when Du Fei was about to touch the photo.
Du Fei, whose little trick was discovered, could only push his glasses in embarrassment, and then tentatively asked Lu Yiping, "...Then, can you give me that photo, and I will put it back in the bag."
Lu Yiping didn't pay attention to what he said, but suddenly raised her head, staring at Lu Ruping who had already walked in front of her.
Although I have already guessed which photo is in Yiping's hand, because today is her birthday, and because there are many guests gathered here at this moment, even if I am very tired of Yiping's random gift, and still use such a Looking at her with a treacherous expression, Lu Ruping still had to make herself smile.
She looked at Lu Yiping's almost hateful eyes, and after a severe tremor in her heart, she smiled and said, "Yiping, what are you holding in your hand?"
Lu Ruping never thought that such a day would come.
Lu Yiping, who has always been regarded by her as a relative, would look at herself with eyes full of hatred who wished she could eat her flesh and drink her blood.
And all of this is just for a man, and a not-so-good misunderstanding.
Under Lu Yiping's icy eyes, the last bit of warmth left in her heart towards this half-sister faltered.
Hearing Lu Ruping's question, Lu Yiping sneered, "Don't you know what I got?"
Lu Ruping's eyes flicked over the parchment bag in Du Fei's hand, and then landed on the distorted photo that Lu Yiping was holding tightly in his hand, she lowered her eyes and said, "This is the picture we went out a few days ago. A photo taken during an outing. When I accidentally tripped that day, He Shuhuan supported me from behind, so I didn't fall to the ground."

She chuckled almost in embarrassment, and looked at Lu Ruping sarcastically. Lu Yiping handed the photo of He Shuhuan hugging Lu Ruping to Lu Ruping: "Are you trying to tell me that this was just an accident?!"
Lu Ruping's gaze flicked over that photo, and it really was the one she didn't want to see at all.
Seeing the defense in Yiping's eyes, Lu Ruping took a deep breath, and finally explained to Lu Yiping: "Yes, believe it or not, this was an accident, even an accident that I didn't want it to exist at all. Yiping , I know He Shuhuan likes you, and I have my self-esteem, so I don't have any thoughts about him at all. Are you satisfied with what I said?"
Although Lu Ruping has a good temper, she is not really a noodle maker who can be flattened and rounded by others.
Under Yiping's aggressive gaze and almost questioning tone, she couldn't help feeling a little restless in her heart.

The photo tightly held in her hands was pulled away in the blink of an eye, and with a pain in her wrist, the words that Lu Yiping was about to blurt were immediately swallowed into her stomach because of the piercing pain in her wrist.
"Lu Yiping, you'd better think carefully about what you're saying. Today is Ruping's birthday, and there are so many guests at home, it's not an occasion where you can act wild!"
It was not someone else who said these words in a cold voice, but Lu Erhao, who had been controlling the audience from the sidelines since the beginning of the banquet.

Lu Erhao, Lu Ruping, you are indeed a family. Only I am an outsider, so I deserve to be bullied by you."
Seeing that Lu Yiping still had something to say, Lu Erhao didn't intend to get entangled with her. The movement on their side was not small, and they had already attracted the attention of many people. The preparations for a long time will be in vain, and Ruping's happy birthday will be completely ruined.
So Lu Erhao just said something to Lu Yiping in a low voice, "Does Auntie Pei know that you are here today?"
The words, which were almost without any emotion, made Lu Yiping's original struggling movement suddenly stop.
Fu Wenpei was Lu Yiping's only weakness, so when Lu Erhao suddenly mentioned her mother, Lu Yiping subconsciously had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, the next moment, he heard Lu Erhao's cold voice, which rang in his ears, "Let me guess, what are you here for today. Aunt Pei should know that today is Ruping's birthday, so she should have stopped her." You came here. But you still came. Why did you come today? Because you know that He Shuhuan is also here. Am I right?"
Seeing Lu Er's proud and calm look, Lu Yiping gritted her teeth, "Yes, I know He Shuhuan will come here today."
Lu Yiping is a person who is too proud to lie, even in front of her enemies.
Seeing Lu Yiping's calm eyes, Lu Erhao let go of her wrist, "You are a smart person, you can't fail to see that Ruping has no ambiguous feelings for He Shuhuan at all. So don't worry about it just because of your littleness. Think about it, just do things that make everyone unable to get off the stage. Believe me, if you make trouble here today, I will let Aunt Pei know what you did here tonight. Let her see that she is a lady raised by a big family. How does a good daughter out there compete with others at the Lu family's banquet? I, Lu Erhao, will do what I say."
After finishing speaking, Lu Erhao tore the photo taken out of Lu Yiping's hands into pieces neatly under Lu Yiping's almost hateful gaze, and in the silence of Lu Ruping and Du Fei, and stuffed it into his trouser pocket, as if As if nothing happened, ignore Lu Yiping.
Turning around to embrace Lu Ruping, Lu Erhao smiled and said to Lu Ruping: "Ruping, what are you doing here, everyone is waiting for you to dance the opening dance."
It was only then that Lu Ruping recovered from Erhao's sudden appearance just now and the almost threatening words she said to Yiping.
She was a little worried and wanted to look back at Yiping, but when she saw Er Hao's emotionless eyes, she stopped thinking in her heart.
Lu Ruping has never been an idiot, so she can naturally see that what Er Hao did just now is entirely to protect her.
But what Er Hao did just now is undoubtedly torn face with Yiping.
"Er Hao... Is it really okay for us to treat Yiping like that just now?" After much hesitation, Lu Ruping finally asked.
Lu Erhao just patted her head, "What to do with so many thoughts, anyway, what she did today didn't save us any face. I guess you are the only one who remembers the little affection we had when we were young."
Lu Erhao's words happened to touch the reason why Lu Ruping had nostalgia for Lu Yiping in her heart.
But also because of Lu Yiping's unkind appearance today, making the visitor questioning the teacher, Lu Ruping couldn't say anything to refute Erhao for a while.
And... what Erhao said is not wrong.
Suppressing the sourness surging up from the bottom of her heart, Lu Ruping glanced at the guests in the hall who were watching her and whispering, and had to work hard to pull herself together.
Er Hao was right, everyone was still waiting for her to dance the opening dance, she couldn't spoil everyone's interest.
After all, today is her Lu Ruping's birthday.
Just as she was thinking about letting Er Hao come and dance the opening dance with her, there was a muffled "bang" from the gate.
While Lu Ruping was taken aback, she subconsciously looked at where Yiping was standing before, and found that the person who was standing there just now had disappeared, and He Shuhuan, who had been absent just now, was listening to Du Fei said something anxiously.
He Shuhuan didn't know how all of this happened, he just went to the bathroom for a while, but when he came out, he saw Yiping standing there with red eyes, as if she had been greatly wronged.
Seeing Yiping like that, his heart felt like a needle pricking his heart, the pain was terribly painful, he almost didn't even think about it, he rushed to Yiping immediately, wanting to ask her who made her wronged.
But something that surprised him soon happened.
When Yiping saw him appearing, she gave him a look that was so complicated that he couldn't understand it at all, and then, like the wind, she ran towards the gate without saying a word.
The bottom of his heart tightened, He Shuhuan didn't know why, the look in Yiping's eyes just now made him feel very uneasy, he almost didn't even think about it, and rushed out following Yiping's footsteps.
But Du Fei stopped him.
From Du Fei's mouth, He Shuhuan heard about what happened between Yiping, Ruping and Erhao in the short period of time just now.
All because of that damn photo!
He knew in his heart that Yiping must have misunderstood what was going on between him and Ruping. After He Shuhuan gave Du Fei a hard look, he looked at Ruping who was standing with Erhao in a complicated way, looking at Ruping from a distance.
At that moment, He Shuhuan clearly felt the wavering in his heart.
But then, after seeing the indifference in Ruping's eyes, He Shuhuan gritted his teeth, and finally walked quickly towards Mr. Lu.
After greeting Mr. Lu and Wang Xueqin, He Shuhuan almost ran away, followed Lu Yiping's trail, and quickly disappeared from the sight of many Lu family guests.
For the interaction between Lu Yiping, Lu Ruping, He Shuhuan, and Lu Erhao just now, most of the people present almost all saw it in their eyes.
At the beginning, it was clear that there seemed to be something wrong with Lu Ruping and He Shuhuan when people talked about it, but after the girl named Lu Yiping came in, the plot took a turn for the worse and became turbulent and confusing?
But seeing how He Shuhuan ran out so nervously following Lu Yiping just now, everyone wondered, could it be that Lu Ruping was ruthless towards He Shuhuan?In fact, the person He Shuhuan likes is that girl named Lu Yiping? !
Unexpectedly, if you come to a birthday party, you can see such a wonderful scene of two women competing for one man. After the three protagonists went to save one, the visiting guests finally focused their attention on Lu Ruping.
As for how many are waiting to see the jokes and how many are gloating, Lu Ruping is not clear at this time.
But to some extent, she also felt that many of the gazes cast on her were not kind.
Noticing that her mother and Mengping's eyes were full of worry on her body, Lu Ruping's originally tense heart gradually returned to a normal heartbeat unconsciously.
Obviously, because of Yiping's arrival and departure, everyone is now waiting to see how she will end up.
Although today's unhappiness had to be said to be unexpected disasters, since she is the protagonist of this banquet, then she, Lu Ruping, will not lose face to the Lu family!
Thinking of this, under the gaze of everyone, Lu Ruping came to the side of the conductor of the band, ordered a piece of dance music for the opening dance, and then suppressed the initial idea of wanting Erhao to help her dance the opening dance together, and walked With graceful steps, she stood still in front of Ye Lin who had been standing in the corner.
Lu Ruping took a deep breath and said to Ye Lin in a warm voice, "Doctor Ye, I don't know, can I invite you to dance this opening dance with me? "
Ye Lin, who had been paying attention to the interaction between Lu Ruping, Lu Yiping and the others, raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that Lu Ruping would pay attention to him.
Almost nine out of ten of the young girls present had been shut down by Ye Lin just now, so even though it was the first time they saw Ye Lin, most of them knew that this man named Ye Lin was nothing but a jerk. The super difficult master who doesn't get in.
This Lu Ruping invited Ye Lin to accompany her in the opening dance in full view. Could it be that she and Ye Lin knew each other a long time ago?
But even if they knew each other, Ye Lin might not give Lu Ruping face, right?
Many people are not sure what Ye Lin will do, after all, this man's aura is too indifferent, making all the girls almost return home.
So everyone was waiting to see Ye Lin reject Lu Ruping's invitation with the mentality of watching the show.
But immediately after, the girls present saw the scene that almost caused them to shred their handkerchiefs——
The man who had always been cold and whose face was carved out of ice actually raised the corners of his lips slightly after looking at Lu Ruping for a while.
That smile that seemed to bloom in an instant made all the wives and mothers present couldn't help but blush and heartbeat.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Lin nodded slightly to Lu Ruping, then took a step forward, bowed slightly, drew an elegant arc with his right hand in the air, and finally stopped in front of his chest, making a medieval gentleman's invitation, and then accepted the invitation. Lu Ruping raised her catkin to embrace Lu Ruping's slender waist, and nodded to the conductor, indicating that it was time to start.
Then, at the same time as the gorgeous and cheerful music sounded, the tall and handsome man and the elegant and light girl slid onto the dance floor in one step.
This scene almost shattered everyone's eyeballs, and immediately let everyone kick the gossip between Lu Ruping, Lu Yiping, and He Shuhuan out of the blue, and focus all their attention on Lu Ruping and Ye Lin.
What?You said He Shuhuan?With a man like Ye Lin who would dump He Shuhuan for several blocks at a glance, Lu Ruping would be blind to fall in love with that gentle He Shuhuan, right? !
I really can’t blame the onlookers for being too fond of the new and disliking the old. It’s because Ye Lin and He Shuhuan’s strengths and weaknesses are too obvious, so when everyone sees Lu Ruping and Ye Lin standing together, they naturally regard He Shuhuan as “having an ambiguous relationship with Lu Ruping.” Excluded from the list of "men".
Now, what everyone wants to know is, how did Lu Ruping make Ye Lin, a cold man who is obviously not good at oil and salt, agree to dance with her?
In fact, not only the onlookers were puzzled by this, but Lu Ruping, who was dancing with Ye Lin, looked at Ye Lin in surprise at this time.
Although when she went to invite Ye Lin, she more or less guessed that Ye Lin might agree to dance the opening dance with her, but seeing Ye Lin agree so happily, she still felt...a little subtle.
After all, he was such a man who was rumored to be almost insane in St. John's.
Thinking of this, Lu Ruping raised her head slightly, looked straight into Ye Lin's obsidian-black eyes, and thanked Ye Lin seriously: "Doctor Ye, thank you for agreeing to dance with me in the opening dance."
Ye Lin slightly lowered his head and glanced at Lu Ruping, whose eyes were full of sincerity and gratitude. On his always cold face, there was a little warmth at the corner of his lips, "No need."
In fact, even if Lu Ruping didn't come to invite him just now, he would take the initiative to invite her to the opening dance.
After all, this matter was solemnly entrusted to him by Lu Erhao.
Thinking of the man whose personality is quite similar to his own, but who is obviously better at disguising, Ye Lin's eyes flicked across the hall one by one, and when he saw Lu Erhao who was bowing his head and talking to the mistress of the Lu family, he raised his head slightly. Raise the corners of your lips.
In fact, he never expected that he would make such a friend with the same temperament as him at this banquet designed by his little cousin.
Moreover, he met again the girl he had met more than once in St. John's.
In the palm, the warm and soft touch was clearly conveyed to the brain along the slender waist that was constantly shaking, and the place close at hand was the faint fragrance from the girl's body.
Different from those rich aromas that almost itch the tip of the nose from the ladies of aristocratic families who often go in and out of various banquets, the smell from Lu Ruping's body is just like her, warm and moist like water, but also has the tolerance and smoothness of water.
It doesn't make people feel bored.
Thinking of this, Ye Lin felt for the first time in the blind date banquets that had been accumulating the maximum number of times in the past few years, it seems that women are not all such annoying creatures.
At least the girl who is in his arms at this moment, dancing with him, and always paying attention to keeping the distance between the two of them, is a very knowledgeable and interesting existence.
And what's even more rare is that Lu Ruping's family seems to be quite to his liking.
Thinking about it this way, it seems a little far away.
Looking down at Lu Ruping who was still dancing seriously, the corners of Ye Lin's cold eyes softened a little.
After the opening dance, all the ladies stared at Ye Lin covetously, planning to imitate Lu Ruping and invite Ye Lin to dance after the first dance.
Who knew that Ye Lin would still dance with Lu Ruping in the next second and third dances!
This almost made the fire of jealousy in the eyes of the girls almost solidify!
But at this moment, Lu Ruping, who was almost cooked by those scorching eyes, felt very helpless in her heart.
Who knows, in fact, when the first opening dance was about to finish, after thanking Ye Lin again, she planned to dance the second dance with Er Hao.
Who knew that Ye Lin didn't intend to change at all, and continued to slide her onto the dance floor when the second dance music played.
When Lu Ruping asked him in surprise why he didn't change his partner, she coldly said "Trouble", which made Lu Ruping's words choke in her throat.
Although at the beginning Lu Ruping did dance the opening dance with Ye Lin to divert everyone's attention from the gossip between her and He Shuhuan, but...she didn't want everyone to misunderstand what was really going on between her and Ye Lin. ...
Noticing the gazes of the guests, after Ye Lin couldn't help but step into the melody of the second song with her, Lu Ruping couldn't help but wailed from the bottom of her heart, feeling that she didn't know what tomorrow would be like. When she went to St. John's school, would she ever come out whole—
You know, among the friends who came to her birthday party today, there are also a few St. John's students!
Although she also knew that the "trouble" Ye Lin mentioned was really troublesome to deal with those girls who were staring at him.
However, Lu Ruping really felt that she might not be blessed to accept such a good job of giving up her life to accompany a gentleman.
Speaking of Dr. Ye, don't you feel that the eyes of those girls are almost poking us into a sieve? !
Lu Ruping couldn't help but sigh while her face was full of bullying in her heart.
Well, no matter what, it was she who took the initiative to invite Ye Lin to be a shield, so now, Ye Lin asked her to help as a shield.
After working hard to build herself up mentally, Lu Ruping calmed down her mind, and then continued to follow Ye Lin's movements and step on the dance steps seriously.
After all, no matter what, she couldn't continue to be ashamed today!
Lu Ruping, who was trying to straighten her back and small chest, did not notice at all that the gaze of the man above her head looking at her gradually changed slightly, from the original indifferent to the last thoughtful.
She didn't notice that after she went to invite Ye Lin to the opening dance, the rest of the Lu family, from Wang Xueqin to Lu Erhao, from Lu Mengping to Lu Erjie, and even Mr. Lu, gradually gathered together, and all of them, They all stared at the two people who were embracing and dancing together.
In those eyes, there was a deep sense of inquiry, excitement and ambiguity, no less than that of other guests.
