did not meet tonight

Ye Jian tremblingly walked over to sit down, the main seat was empty, Chen Zhe hadn't come yet, the strange thing was that Chen Tai wasn't there either.Sitting next to him was a young woman with bright makeup, about 30 years old, with charming eyes and big wavy curly hair, which made her look more mature. Let me introduce you."

Looking at their bejeweled appearances, Ye Jian felt that he was a different kind. He pretended to be calm and smiled at them: "Hi everyone, I am the wife's family member, my name is Ye"

Before he finished speaking, the girl sitting opposite him snorted, with a look of disdain on her face, Ye Jian clearly felt the unfriendly atmosphere coming from all directions, while the woman next door still maintained a warm smile: "It turns out that this is the case. My name is Lu Yaning, and I am a cousin of the Chen family. We will be a family in the future."

"Sister Yaning, you are really lenient." The girl on the opposite side said sarcastically, with a contemptuous expression on her face.

"No matter what, Yuan Yuan is the woman my cousin wants to marry. For me, her family is of course my family." Lu Yaning sat there with her hands folded, her posture elegant and domineering, "Bao Qian , they are going to get married, and you should let go of some things."

"Do I, Lu Baoqian, want anything? Would I compare myself to such a woman!" the girl said dismissively.

"There is no reason for emotional matters. We should all sincerely bless them. I believe everyone thinks so in their hearts." Lu Yaning said.

"Yes, that's right, Mr. Chen is planning to announce their marriage at the birthday banquet, which means that the Chen family attaches great importance to this marriage." A tall and thin man said.

"If you really want to take it seriously, why don't you hold the engagement banquet directly? I think my uncle was forced by Ah Zhe, so he reluctantly agreed." Lu Baoqian looked contemptuous, and the diamond necklace on her neck flickered with her movements. , It hurts people's eyes.

"Uncle never likes to be lively, and the Chen family never pays attention to appearances. It's normal to do so." Lu Yaning said lightly, "Everyone here is inextricably related to the Chen family. To receive the invitation this time, It is enough to prove that Uncle treats us as family members, whether it is for Uncle or for the Chen family, we should bless the couple."

"Don't act like you know everything, maybe Uncle Chen doesn't like that woman marrying in at all!" Lu Baoqian said unconvinced.

Ye Jian really didn't want to get involved in the intrigue of these rich people. He was going to treat himself as an invisible person, but he didn't say anything, but when he heard Lu Baoxi say "that woman", he couldn't help being angry Come up.If this was normal, he would definitely rush up and fight with people, but this would be in the Chen family, and he would have to worry about Yu Yuanyuan's situation, so he could only smile and say: "This lady calls the future of the Chen family For that woman, the eldest daughter-in-law does not know where to put the entire Chen family, or is this your attitude towards the Chen family?"

Everyone at the table looked at her carefully, Lu Baoqian's expression changed, and she said anxiously: "Don't distort my words here, that's not what I mean!"

"But Yuan Yuan is now a member of the Chen family. She accompanied Chen Zhe to the banquet as the eldest daughter-in-law, which means that the Chen family has recognized her identity, and your rudeness to her is not a rudeness to the Chen family. Is it?" Ye Jian sat there and said calmly.

Lu Baoqian's face turned red and white, and she couldn't find anything to refute. She really didn't take Yu Yuanyuan seriously, but she never dared to despise the Chen family. The family interests involved were far from that simple.Lu Yaning glanced at her, and came out to smooth things over: "Bao Qian's age and some things may not be considered so thoughtfully, but she has no malicious intentions, please don't bother with her, Mr. Ye."

The oldest middle-aged man nodded and said in agreement: "Miss Yaning is right, everyone is here for the same thing, no matter what thoughts you have in your heart, for the sake of the Chen family, don't stay here It’s a time when new problems arise.”

Although Lu Baoqian was not reconciled, she had no choice but to turn her head and sulk herself.The door opened again, Chen Zhe and Xiao Yu walked in at the same time, the strange thing was that Yu Yuanyuan was not inside, everyone stood up to greet them, Chen Zhe smiled at them: "I have something to delay for a while, I kept everyone waiting for a long time. "

"No, no, we had a good chat just now." Lu Baoqian changed her face and said courteously.

Chen Zhe asked Xiao Yu to sit down first. His position is the first one on the right of the main seat, and the first one on the left is Lu Yaning. It is said that rich people are very particular about their seats. It seems that these two people are also in a detached position in the eyes of the Chen family. ah!Ye Jian glanced at Xiao Yu, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, different identities were treated differently, he was brought in by a servant, while Xiao Yu was brought in by the master himself!

The dishes were served one after another, not to mention the exquisiteness of the presentation, and even the tableware was unique. A meal was like a performance, each with its own pretensions, which made Ye Jian, who was used to feasting, feel awkward no matter how he looked at it. No one spoke up!Finally, when the main meal was over, the servants began to serve desserts. Chen Zhe raised his glass and said, "Thank you for coming to my father's birthday banquet this time. My father is a quiet person and doesn't want to celebrate with great fanfare, so I arranged the banquet in the manor. Here, the day after tomorrow is the date of the birthday banquet, and I hope everyone can get used to living here in these two days."

"I'm used to it, of course I'm used to it! Brother Zhe has arranged so thoughtfully, and even prepared dresses for us, I feel like I'm at my own home here." Lu Baoqian immediately interjected, changing her arrogance just now.

"We are all here, why didn't the head of the Feng family show up?" said the middle-aged uncle.His name is Ba Dechang, and he is a very famous economist. He often gives speeches all over the world, but Ye Jian hasn't paid attention to him, so he doesn't know him.

"It's true, even if the Patriarch is not free, he should send a representative over. This silent one is too much!" Lu Baoqian said indignantly.

"The Feng family has called beforehand, I believe my father won't mind." Chen Zhe said.

"Uncle is just a very kind person, and I often miss him when I am abroad." Lu Baoqian acted according to the wind, and opened her mouth to speak flattering words.Then there was another back-and-forth flattery, one sentence after another, all praising how powerful the Chen family is, how young and promising Chen Zhe is, Ye Jian regarded himself as an audience, and didn't say a word the whole time, but he found that Lu Yaning looked at Xiao Yu intentionally or unintentionally, her eyes were soft and charming, as if she wanted to attract the soul, but it was a pity that Xiao Yu turned a blind eye.

After finally finishing the meal, and the banquet can finally be over, Ye Jian made a generalization of the few people present.Lu Yaning is the eldest daughter of Chen Zhe's aunt's family, Lu Baoqian is the daughter of a family friend of the Chen family, even a blind person can tell that she likes Chen Zhe, Ba Dechang is the economic consultant of Chen's company, and also Chen Qiankun's friend for many years, that tall and thin The man named Xiang Jingyu is from Hong Kong, and it is estimated that the background is not so that everyone else has their own background, and none of them is a simple person.

After saying goodbye, everyone went back to their rooms, Ye Jian was walking in front, and suddenly heard Lu Yaning say: "Yu, I didn't expect you to come to uncle's birthday banquet."

Ye Jian had just stepped up the steps with one foot, and was almost stunned by the name.

meet?

How familiar are they, can they be so affectionate?

Lu Yaning's face was full of joy, the dark blue dress outlined her beautiful figure, her makeup was exquisite, her appearance was charming and mature, her gestures were very feminine, and she was born to be lethal to men.She looked at Xiao Yu, her eyes were as gentle as spring water: "We haven't seen each other for almost three years, so we meet again here, do you want to find a place to have a good chat?"

"Sorry, I'm a little tired." Xiao Yu said calmly with an apology in his voice.

"How can a man say he's tired? It's such a beautiful moonlight outside, and besides, there are beautiful women meeting, do you have the heart to refuse?" Lu Yaning stroked her hair and said flirtatiously.

"Although I can't bear it, I can only refuse." Xiao Yu said.Seeing him looking at her, Ye Jian hurriedly looked away, pretending to be nonchalant and continuing to walk up.

It seems that Lu Yaning should live on the same floor as them, she sighed, and said quietly: "You, you are still so close to others."

The steps are hewn out of rock, the surface is rough and easy to apply force, but Lu Yaning suddenly groaned, Ye Jian turned around and saw her throwing herself on Xiao Yu's body, frowning, bending over to press her leg, looking very painful: "I seem to have sprained my foot."

Xiao Yu supported her: "How is it, are you okay?"

Lu Yaning tried to stand up straight, but fell into Xiao Yu's arms again when she was unsteady: "It hurts so much!"

"You take a rest here, I'll call someone to help." Xiao Yu looked around and said.

"No, it's so late, it would be bad if I disturbed my uncle." Lu Yaning said quickly, "Yu, can you please help me back to my room, I think I'll be fine if I take a rest."

Xiao Yugang wanted to refuse, but Lu Yaning seemed to guess what he was thinking, and said, "Our two families have been friends for so many years, and now that I'm injured, you won't leave me alone, will you?"

"Yes, yes, Ms. Lu is right, her foot is injured like this, you should send her back quickly." Ye Jian said angrily when a fire came from somewhere.

"Are you willing?" Xiao Yu looked at him and asked.

"Is there anything I don't want, the lady is injured, of course you have to bear the brunt of the chivalry, right!" Although he was asking, Ye Jian said in an affirmative tone, "You two are busy, I have been driving for a day , go back to the room and sleep first!"

After speaking, he walked up the stairs quickly and closed the door. It was quiet outside, and there was no peephole on the door. He looked left and right through the gap, but he still couldn't see anything.

The fire in his heart had no place to vent like the cut off water flow. He lay on his back on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

He felt that there must be something wrong with him!
