In midsummer, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the high sun scorches the big trees on the road to droop their branches, and the green leaves on the branches are languid and listless.
Jiang Xuan looked at the dress Jiang Muhang had sent and was very happy. She knew that her appearance was pure and soft. White had always been her favorite color and it suited her best.
She touched the dress and said softly: "It's so beautiful."
"It suits you very well." Jiang Muhang put down the document in his hand and turned his head to look at his little wife.
"Can you attend the banquet? Your injury is not healed yet, why don't we attend..."
Jiang Xuan hesitated to speak. She knew how important this banquet was to Jiang Muhang. As the leader of Hengyuan Group, he had just taken over the group not very long ago. The most important thing now was to consolidate his power. When showing off one's status. On such an important day as the group's 20th anniversary, he couldn't miss it.
Moreover, she also wanted to accompany him to attend. After all, in her last life, she had been staying in the small foreign-style building and knew nothing about these banquets. If she had the chance to come back in this life, she wanted to stand by Jiang Muhang's side.
"Don't worry, I won't walk around casually that day, as long as I don't injure the wound. If you're worried, then take good care of me." Jiang Muhang didn't look good because of his injury, but it didn't detract from his handsomeness at all. At this time, his voice was low and he was talking about love, which made Jiang Xuan blush.
"Well, I'm watching you, you can't drink." Jiang Xuan looked at him softly with a pair of black eyes.
" good."
After class, Jin Mingyuan proposed to have dinner together tonight.
"I... Senior Gu said he wanted to come find me." Xu Xue lowered her head and whispered.
"That's better. Aren't you together now? It's time to let him have dinner with us." Jin Mingyuan touched her chin, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that her proposal was good.
"Then I'll ask him." Xu Xue whispered.
"Okay, hurry up and ask." Jin Mingyuan touched Su Yue next to her with her elbow, "What about you? Or do you want to rush back to accompany Jiang Ci? Su Yue, you have to have some conscience and don't put too much emphasis on sex and neglect friends. No, your Jiang Ci is not sexy either."
Su Yue couldn't laugh or cry, "Okay, let's go together."
The dining venue was a classically and elegantly decorated Chinese-style courtyard chosen by Jin Mingyan. It is generally difficult to get a seat in such a unique and quiet dining place without making a reservation in advance or if you are not a VIP.
Entering the private room, the decoration inside is retro and elegant, with many calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls. When you open the mahogany window, you are facing a pond full of lotus flowers. The pond is full of colors. It is very interesting to enjoy delicious food next to the beautiful scenery. .
"This is such a good place." Gu Chengfeng said with a smile, his handsome features becoming more and more handsome.
"Yes, my elder brother introduced me to it. He likes to invite people here to discuss business." Jin Mingyuan casually sat down in a seat and asked someone to make a pot of lotus tea.
Su Yue sat down next to Jin Mingyuan. One seat across from her was Xu Xue, and on the other side of her was Gu Chengfeng.
"It seems that your elder brother is an interesting person." Gu Chengfeng thoughtfully helped Xu Xue pour the lotus tea and moved it to her hand.
Xu Xue's delicate face was slightly red, "Thank you."
"My eldest brother just likes to pay attention to these virtual things, but the food here is really good, you can taste it later. This is the menu, you can see what you like to eat."
"You can just order. I'll make a call first." Su Yue looked at the time and thought it would be better to say something to Jiang Ci.
"Are you worried about your Jiang Ci? Go ahead, go ahead." Jin Mingyuan looked like she had seen through everything.
The corridor was very quiet, only the low guqin music was playing.
Su Yue dialed Jiang Ci's number directly. It took a while before the call was answered. The other party made no sound, obviously waiting for her to speak.
"Jiang Ci, it's me."
"Yeah." Jiang Ci responded casually.
"I'm going out to eat with Mingyuan and the others. If I don't come back to eat, you and Xiao Haohao don't have to wait for me." Su Yue faced the wall and poked the wall with her fingertips.
"Who wants to wait for you to eat?" On the other end of the phone, Jiang Ci snorted in disgust.
"Oh." Su Yue rolled her eyes, "I'll be back after dinner. I won't stay up all night."
"What time?" Jiang Ci finally spoke with satisfaction.
"What time is it? How do I know when to finish eating? Jiang Ci, is there a set time for eating?" Su Yue poked the wall unhappily with her slender white fingers.
"I'm going to pick you up." On the other end, Jiang Ci squinted his eyes. Listening to Su Yue's soft voice on the phone, he felt his ears were itchy and wanted to rub them.
Su Yue blinked, "Are you coming to pick me up?"
Jiang Ci snorted.
Su Yue's beautiful red lips curled up slightly. Was he worried about her? With a bit more briskness in her tone, Su Yue directly told him the address of where to eat.
When she returned to the box, Jin Mingyuan was chatting with Gu Chengfeng, "Senior Gu, you are now with our Xuexue."
"Of course." Gu Chengfeng gave Xu Xue a gentle look and held her Xu Xue's hand, "Xiaoxue is my girlfriend now."
"Our Xuexue has a quiet and gentle personality, and is easily shy. She is a good girl. Senior Gu, you can't bully her, or I won't let you go." Jin Mingyuan began to speak harshly. However, she imagined that a good person like Gu Chengfeng would not do anything bad.
Gu Chengfeng smiled brightly and charmingly, and promised: "You don't need to worry, I will cherish Xiaoxue."
Hearing this, Xu Xue turned her head and looked at him, blushing, pursed her lips and smiled shyly.
The dishes are very rich, mainly based on lotus and lotus leaves, colorful water lily stems, lotus drunken fish, lotus rolls with Thai sauce, lotus-scented lotus seed soup, splendid lotus leaves, lotus buds and thousands of flowers... Every dish is delicious. Both the color and the presentation are unique, exquisite and attractive.
Su Yue looked at the lotus-scented lotus seed soup.
Inside the sapphire-colored porcelain plate, there is pale pink soup, with a fragrant and fresh lotus floating on it. Under the lotus, there are mushrooms, fresh lotus seeds, lotus root grains, cucumber, crab meat and fresh shrimps. Dry ice is placed on the lotus leaves placed next to the porcelain plate, and there is a faint smoke floating in it. It has the beauty of seeing flowers in the mist. The whole dish is very beautiful.
She took a spoonful and found that it was not only fresh and sweet, but also had a faint fragrance of lotus. It tasted so good that she squinted her eyes. She was enjoying it.
Jin Mingyuan always knew Su Yue and knew that she loved to eat. Seeing Su Yue's happy expression at this time, she smiled and said, "It's delicious." She picked up the small white jade porcelain pot next to her and poured it into Su Yue's cup. , "Try this, I'm sure you'll like it. I came late last time and only drank two bottles, so I didn't have to buy anything."
"What is this?" Su Yue looked at the light pink liquid in the cup, which was very beautiful in color. She picked it up and smelled it, "It smells so good."
"Yes, this is lotus wine." Jin Mingyuan was a little proud, "I specially ordered a lot of them today, you can drink them as you like later."
"I can't drink." Su Yue put down the cup sadly.
"Tsk, you drink better than me, and you actually said you can't drink? Little Yueyue, are you feeling guilty when you say this?" Jin Mingyuan looked like you don't want to deceive me, "Could it be your family Jiang I don’t want to give you a drink? Don’t worry, this is not wine, it’s sweet. I didn’t feel drunk at all after drinking last time. You have a better drinking capacity than me, so there’s no need to worry. Try it quickly, this is a fairy What a fine wine.”
Su Yue picked up the cup and smelled it. The wine smell was indeed light, more like the fragrance of lotus. She used to have the kind of physique that would get drunk if she touched alcohol. When attending some occasions, she would not drink at all because she was worried that she would make a fool of herself and be photographed by reporters when she was drunk.
Now that she is no longer a public figure, she no longer needs to worry about reporters. And according to Kim Myung Won, the original owner has a good drinking capacity? Then there should be no problem with her drinking alcohol.
Su Yue took a sip.
The light pink lotus wine just slipped into the mouth, and a lotus fragrance overflowed from the tip of the tongue. It was so delicious.
Su Yue took another sip.
"How about it? Isn't it delicious?" Jin Mingyuan smiled. She turned her head and watched Gu Chengfeng thoughtfully holding vegetables for Xu Xue and serving soup to Xu Xue from time to time. She couldn't help but feel satisfied.
Xu Xue's personality is different from theirs. She cries easily when she is bullied.
The delicate and gentle character of Xu Xue cannot go together with the arrogant and fun characters of Jin Mingyuan and Su Yue. But once, Xu Xue helped Su Yue. After contact, Su Yue found that Xu Xue was sensible, easy to bully, and not aggressive. She took Xu Xue to play with her, and the three of them got along fairly well. Slowly, they became friends.
She was also happy for Xu Xue when she saw that her friend mustered up the courage to confess her love and succeeded, finally being with Senior Gu.
Ever since she realized that she could lose weight by relying on Jiang Ci, Su Yue no longer controlled her mouth, and she enjoyed all the food she encountered. At this moment, with a happy look on her delicate brows and bright eyes, Su Yue was eating lotus seed soup and drinking lotus stuffed wine, not to mention how delicious it was.
Jin Mingyuan was not much better. She was a foodie, and she continued to enjoy the delicious food. It was not until she drank several pots of lotus brew that she turned around and found that her friend Su Yue's cheeks were all red. .
" I go."
She quickly put down the chopsticks in her hand, reached out and touched Su Yue's face, "I'm going to die, I'm going to die."
She couldn't help but pinch it, tsk, it was white and rosy, pink and tender, more vivid and beautiful than the pink lotus on the plate, it made people want to take a bite.
"Why are you pinching me?" Su Yue slapped Jin Mingyuan's hand away. Why was this person pinching her? It hurt.
"Hoo!"
Jin Mingyuan breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you were drunk, but it seems you are still sober, just not drunk. But, little Yueyue, go to the bathroom and look in the mirror later. You look so beautiful." ?"
A pair of black eyes were watery, moist and glistening, and her snow-colored cheeks were tinged with a light blush. Her current appearance was so seductive.
Over there, Gu Chengfeng paused while helping Xu Xuesheng make lotus seed soup.
"Yueyue, don't drink any more." Xu Xue also spoke up. She just drank a small glass. It was sweet and she thought it tasted good. But looking at Su Yue's appearance now, it seems that the wine has some Stamina, "You're going to be drunk later."
"She didn't want to drink anymore." Jin Mingyuan looked at the empty white porcelain pots with a dumbfounded look. She also drank two pots, but she was not drunk at all, her face was not red, and her heart was not panicked. Why did Su Yue Did you look like this after drinking? It made her jealous to death.
Jin Mingyuan wanted to pinch her cheek again, but Su Yue glared at her.
"Well, I won't drink anymore." Su Yue responded. She felt her cheeks burning hot, and she must have been red. But she is still conscious now, probably because the original owner has a good alcohol capacity, otherwise she would have been drunk long ago.
After eating for a while, the evening breeze blew in through the wooden window, accompanied by the faint fragrance of lotus, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
Su Yue felt that her cheeks were very hot, and the cool wind could not dissipate the heat from her face.
"We've almost eaten, and it's getting late." Gu Chengfeng glanced at Su Yue and suggested, "Student Su seems a little drunk? Let me take you back."
"Yueyue, are you drunk?" Jin Mingyuan asked quickly.
"I seem a little dizzy." Su Yue pursed her lips, "But it's okay."
"Why is your drinking capacity so bad now?" Jin Mingyuan couldn't laugh or cry, "You knocked me down last time, why are you drunk now after drinking this."
"Maybe Yueyue is more sensitive to this kind of wine with low alcohol content and high stamina." Xu Xue said delicately.
"Ah? Is there anything like this? Okay, I'm full too, let's go and take Yueyue back." With that said, Jin Mingyuan stood up and wanted to help Su Yue.
"No need to send me off." Su Yue blinked her watery black eyes, and she took out her ringing cell phone, "Jiang Ci said he would come to take me back."
"He came to pick you up?" Jin Mingyuan was slightly shocked. It was really hard for a blind man to rush around like this, but he still cared about Su Yue.
"He should have arrived. I'm going out." With that, Su Yue answered the phone.
"I'm at the door." Jiang Ci's cold voice sounded on the other end of the phone.
"I've finished eating here and am getting ready to leave. I'm going out to find you now." Su Yue swallowed, her voice a little soft after drinking.
" Um."
After hanging up the phone, Jin Mingyuan, Xu Xue and Gu Chengfeng accompanied Su Yue out. Arriving at the door, a black, domineering and eye-catching car was parked there. The car window was half lowered, revealing the left side of the man's face with a hideous scar.
Jin Mingyuan looked at her friend standing next to her again. At this time, she felt that Su Yue was really a flower stuck in cow dung, no, it was dog shit.
"I'm leaving. See you at school tomorrow." Su Yue's dark eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Ci.
"Okay, okay, let's go." Jin Mingyuan looked at Su Yue's expression, "Tsk, does she really like Jiang Ci?"
"Goodbye Yueyue, if you have a headache when you go back, you can drink some hangover soup." Xu Xue reminded her thoughtfully and gently.
"Yeah, I know." Su Yue waved to them and walked towards the car.
Gu Chengfeng withdrew his surprised gaze from Jiang Ci's face. He lowered his head and touched Xu Xue's head, "I'll take you back."
Xu Xue smiled shyly, "Yeah."
It was quiet in the car.
Su Yue sat next to Jiang Ci. She leaned on the back of the chair, her breathing was a little hot, and her cheeks were getting redder. It seemed that the wine had gained strength.
" you've been drinking?"
Suddenly, Jiang Ci's voice sounded.
Although the smell of the wine was very weak and he could smell more of the milky scent of her body, his sense of smell was always more sensitive than ordinary people, and since he was blind, it became even more sensitive. Even if it's just a little bit, he can smell it.
"It's not wine, it's lotus wine." Inexplicably, Su Yue felt a little guilty.
" Ah."
Jiang Ci sneered. Suddenly, his body leaned towards her, he got close to Su Yue, and smelled it. The faint smell of wine was mixed with a refreshing fragrance. Lifting his thin lips, Jiang Ci affirmed: "He was obviously drunk."
Su Yue's head was already dizzy. Jiang Ci approached her and exposed her words. Her face felt hot again, she was a little flustered, her head was a little fuzzy, and her voice was low and soft, as if she had no strength.
She murmured: "Mingyuan said that the alcohol content is very low, so it doesn't count as alcohol. However, I seem to be drunk."
Jiang Ci raised his eyebrows and asked casually: "Su Yue, are you drunk?"
"That's a bit." Su Yuebao complained in a low voice, "I didn't drink before."
Suddenly, she blinked her eyes and raised her red lips. She looked at Jiang Ci and said with a smile, "But that wine is really delicious. I will drink it next time. I will also bring some for you to try." You’ll definitely like it too.”
"I don't like it." Jiang Ci sneered coldly: "You are not allowed to drink it either."
She can get drunk with just such a low alcohol content, how dare she imitate others in drinking
Su Yue's bright black eyes were already watery and moist. She looked at Jiang Ci's face in front of her and said, "I'm going to drink." After a pause, she stuttered and asked, "Will you?" Are you angry?"
Jiang Ci was stunned and said lazily, "Of course he will be angry." She seemed to care about whether he was angry or not.
"Yeah." Su Yue narrowed her eyes and yawned, feeling a little sleepy. "If you want to be angry, then be angry. You are easy to coax anyway."
"Ahem..." Uncle Fang, who was in the driver's seat in front, was so frightened that he choked on his saliva. He quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Master."
Jiang Ci frowned, "Drive seriously."
"Yes, Master." Uncle Fang's heart tightened and he immediately cheered up, not daring to listen any more.
Jiang Ci pressed the button in the car and raised the barrier.
He frowned and leaned back on the chair with a strange look on his face. He asked Su Yue, "Am I easy to coax?"
Su Yue was unconscious. She felt Jiang Ci was a little annoyed. She closed her eyes and wanted to sleep.
When he didn't get a response, Jiang Ci reached out to pat Su Yue's face. Just after the first pat, he stopped and said, "Answer." The cheek under his palm was smooth, tender and warm. Hot and feels surprisingly good.
" Um?"
Su Yue sat on the car seat, her face was touched, she opened her eyes and looked at Jiang Ci blankly.
"What do you mean I'm easy to coax?" Jiang Ci's slender fingers pinched Su Yue's face, as if she would tighten her fingertips hard if she said the wrong thing.
"It's easy to coax." Su Yue's water-colored eyes curved, and a smile appeared on her face, "Jiang Xiaoqi is so coaxing."
"It turns out that you are teasing me like a fool." Jiang Ci's eyebrows had a sinister look on his face, and his face darkened.
"Animation value: 10."
The headache came and the bell rang.
Su Yue was so frightened that she subconsciously sat upright. She quickly said, "Are you angry?"
She reached out and suddenly held Jiang Ci's face with both hands. The warm, lotus-scented breath sprayed on Jiang Ci's face. She wanted to warn Jiang Ci severely, "Jiang Ci, you can't be angry. I feel uncomfortable when I’m angry!”
"Su Yue..." The palm of the hand holding his face was very hot and soft. Jiang Ci felt the scarred left side of his face twitch violently, "You're drunk, don't act crazy." .”
Su Yue opened her moist eyes and looked at the cold face of the man in front of her, "I know you are angry. I know it when you are angry."
I had a headache and the ringing was so noisy.
Su Yue felt dizzy and uncomfortable. She whispered to Jiang Ci, "Can you please stop being angry? I feel uncomfortable."
Jiang Ci felt that Su Yue was just a lunatic. He twitched his lips and said casually: "Oh, I'm angry. Didn't you say I'm easy to coax? Then just coax me."
Su Yue curled her lips and smiled, coaxing Jiang Ci? She knows it best.
Her warm fingertips touched Jiang Ci's brow bone, "Jiang Ci, you are so beautiful."
"You little liar, you're hypocritical. You said before that you were so disgusted with me that you couldn't eat." Jiang Ci raised his eyebrows, and the eyebrow bone that Su Yue stroked felt a little itchy.
"I'm not going to lie, she's so pretty." Su Yue replied in a low voice, "I used to be uglier." In the past, her scars were still leaking pus, which would make her so disgusting that she couldn't eat.
Jiang Ci snorted, "I know you're ugly." She admitted it despite being drunk.
Su Yue blinked, "I praised you for being pretty, why are you still angry?" She felt that tonight's Jiang Ci was becoming more difficult to coax.
Jiang Ci took hold of her hand that was touching his face carelessly, pulled the person into his arms, and said funnyly: "It's not easy to worry even when you're drunk." He hugged her soft body and smelled her wetness. With the aroma of wine, Jiang Ci twitched the corners of his lips and lowered his voice, "Su Yue, I want to kiss you, will you kiss me?"
He was extremely mean and deceitful, "I'll kiss you and I won't be angry with you."
Su Yue looked at Jiang Ci in confusion. The next moment, she felt her mouth was bitten, and then there was something warm in her mouth.
"Animation value: 0."
After getting off the car, the night wind blew away the heat from my body.
Jiang Ci half hugged Su Yue, his brows were relaxed, his thin lips were slightly hooked, and he asked: "Su Yue, I can't see, can you lead the way?"
Su Yue's brain was sticky and her breathing was a little breathless. She leaned against Jiang Ci and opened her eyes to look at the familiar scenery. "Okay, I will lead you."
"Oh, that's up to you." Jiang Ci laughed, his voice low and hoarse. Thinking of the lotus-scented uvula he had just tasted, he felt that it was okay for Su Yue to drink a little wine occasionally.
The evening breeze blew gently by again, and under the warm yellow light on the roadside, the figures of the two people supporting each other were cast.
The author has something to say: Yueyue: I feel really uncomfortable when you are angry.
Jiang ChouChou said proudly: Ah, I know she loves me very much! ! !
