"Do you need me to repeat it again?" Liang Sheng's tone was calm, and his seemingly plain words were full of threats.
Chen Shulei's eyes narrowed slightly, and her eyes were particularly hot for a few seconds when she looked at Liang Sheng. Then she looked at me complicatedly: "Is it Miss Shen?" Her eyes moved down to my lower abdomen, slightly surprised.
I knew what she was thinking, so I simply replied: "There are only a few days every month, please forgive me, Miss Chen."
Her eyes became a little more distant, and she smiled and said, "In that case, I'll ask the waiter to get you a drink. You can go in and invite me."
Just as I was about to take a step, someone behind me suddenly called my name. When I turned around, I saw it was Wang Xiaodan.
I was indeed a little surprised by her arrival, because she told me on the phone before that she had no contact with Chen Shulei for a long time, and Chen Shulei's temperament should not send invitations to a small character like her. However, in front of so many people, I couldn't ask why she was there, so I just greeted her with a smile: "You're here too."
Wang Xiaodan wore a long purple dress, a standard dinner classic. Her makeup was a little thick, and she looked gorgeous and a bit exaggerated. She glanced at Chen Shulei with a meaningful look, and said pointedly: "Of course I have to come to such a grand occasion."
My intuition told me that there seemed to be some unclear conflicts between her and Chen Shulei.
Chen Shulei led us to the middle of the venue, and Ling Xiao took the time to come over and greet us, "Hi, long time no see. I'm sorry that I was a little busy today and couldn't greet you right away."
He glanced at each of us indifferently, and Chu Jin answered his words in a grand voice: "Understood, congratulations to you. You have become a god and a goddess. If this news gets out, it will break the hearts of many fans."
Ling Xiao smiled a little frivolously. He called the cameraman and said to us: "Let's take a photo first."
It is a custom in Haicheng to take photos at wedding banquets, which is similar to my hometown. The photographer moved the tripod back a little and motioned for us to stand in the middle.
Liang Sheng and I were originally standing on the right side of Chu Jin and Xuan Xuan, a bit in the corner. Seeing this, Chen Shulei suddenly stepped forward and pulled me, "Miss Shen should stand in the center of the camera if she wears such a good-looking dress. Let's stand together." "
As soon as she pulled me to the middle position, while Liang Sheng and I were still looking at each other, the shutter light on the camera flashed.
Chen Shulei didn't embarrass us too much. She chatted with us for a few words and then went to greet other guests.
There were not many people present today, only about thirty people. Everyone was dressed elegantly and dazzlingly. Most of them were young people, and they were friends of Chen Shulei and Ling Xiao.
As soon as they left, Xuanxuan couldn't help complaining: "I always feel like these two are acting."
"I feel the same way." I nodded and looked at the smiling couple at the gate with them.
The two of them looked so perfect together, as good as the male and female protagonists in a movie, so unreal.
Chu Jin said something very meaningful, "I am an actor."
"No matter what, there are a lot of people talking today, so you should pay more attention to your behavior, words and deeds." Liang Sheng still calmly vaccinated us.
Wang Xiaodan stood beside us without saying a word, staring straight at the couple not far away. I followed her gaze and it seemed that her attention was focused on Ling Xiao. That complicated look is a bit like the feeling of an emotionally entangled woman looking at a man who has hurt her.
I remember that Mr. Jin said on the phone, 'If it weren't for Ling Xiao's sake', I suddenly felt that something might have happened between Wang Xiaodan and Ling Xiao.
Maybe my gaze was too direct, but Wang Xiaodan noticed that I was looking at her, and immediately took a few steps towards me, with a concealed smile on her face: "Yanyan, you look so good today, you completely stole the bride-to-be's attention. The limelight."
There were other guests nearby, and it was always not good for others to hear her. I smiled and said, "I'm kidding, everyone's eyes are on the bride-to-be today. I can't steal her away."
Wang Xiaodan looked at the clothes on my body and was slightly surprised: "I guess you bought this dress at myqueen. I just saw it in a magazine last month. I didn't expect to see the real thing today. It matches you very well. It looks really good." .”
When she said this, her eyes drifted to Chen Shulei from time to time, subconsciously comparing her to me.
Xuanxuan spoke for me: "Of course, our Yanyan family is so beautiful, she looks good in anything she wears."
"That's true." Wang Xiaodan smiled, took a sip of wine, and said no more.
There was a commotion at the door, and the surrounding guests, especially the female guests, all rushed over there. I thought some big shot was coming, but when I saw He Feimo walking indifferently through the crowd, I was a little bit worried. Accident.
Liang Sheng frowned slightly. I held his arm and joked, "Are you unhappy because you see someone else is more popular than you?"
Liang Sheng raised his chin slightly: "Do I need it?" Then he considered my words and asked again: "Do you think he is more handsome than me?"
I flattened my mouth and said, "I didn't say anything."
Liang Sheng was unhappy and snorted coldly and stopped talking.
He Feimo didn't say a few words since he entered the venue. He just nodded to Chen Shulei and Ling Xiao without even giving them an extra look. When he walked in, he still walked to the corner as usual. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of us from the corner of his eye, his eyes lit up, and he walked towards us.
"Are you surprised to see me?" He Feimo stood opposite us and asked with a faint smile.
I nodded, and Chu Jin asked him: "Why did they invite you here?"
He Feimo raised his eyebrows: "I don't know. I didn't plan to come over. But when I thought you were here, I came over to take a look and join in the fun."
"You are not someone who likes to join in the fun." Chu Jinyi pointed out.
He Feimo smiled and said nothing.
As the time approached the start of the dinner, guests entered one after another. Chen Shulei held Ling Xiao's hand and walked towards the stage with a smile as if walking on a red carpet. Then there was a simple welcome speech, and then some simplified ceremonies. .
When it was time for free activities, Xuanxuan happily took me to find all kinds of exquisite and delicious pastries. She said she wanted to eat back the red envelope money as much as possible, but in fact she just wanted to pull me away from Wang Xiaodan.
Liang Sheng and the others were always huddled together, drinking and talking about something.
Xuanxuan pulled me to the self-service pastry counter, picked a small piece of cake and stuffed it into her mouth. While chewing, she said, "Have you noticed that all of them have impure motives?"
It seemed that I was not the only one who felt this way. I nodded, "I guess they want to find out what they secretly filmed me about before."
"There is also something about meeting on Monday." Xuanxuan added.
"Yeah." Otherwise, with Liang Sheng and He Feimo's personalities, let alone Chen Shulei's engagement party, even if they were really getting married, they wouldn't even bother to come and bless them. The new year is approaching, and whose time is not precious.
"Hey, I thought she was a goddess. Who is this? You are dressed in the same style as the bride. For those who don't know, I thought you were engaged." Three sexy-dressed female artists came over, probably Chen Shulei. My friend, she is not considered a first-line actress in China, but she has at least a few works.
If Xuanxuan and I usually saw the three of them standing together, we might enthusiastically go up and ask for a photo or autograph, but on this occasion, they just said such words, which was more or less sarcastic.
Before coming here, Liang Sheng specifically told me not to speak, so my first reaction was to pull Xuanxuan away. But Xuanxuan is so hot-tempered that she doesn't want others to say anything bad about me. She sticks a fruit pick directly on a piece of cake and stands up for me: "You can see clearly, she is wearing myqueen's new model this month. If I didn't see it, If it’s wrong, our heroine is wearing the style from two months ago.”
It would have been better if Xuanxuan didn't say this, but once she said it, it would simply arouse hatred. I have never cared much about the price of clothing. What I wear is based on my mood, not the fashion. When Xuanxuan said this, it seemed that I was a bit jealous.
Another actress crossed her arms and looked at me, "Oh, myqueen, isn't that brand exclusive to mistresses?"
Xuanxuan got a little angry, so she simply nodded and said, "Yes, just like the Audi A6."
Chen Shulei owns this car. I know because she let me get into her car when we first met. As for how Xuanxuan knew, I'm not sure. But her answer was so sharp that the other person choked and couldn't answer the question for several seconds.
