Seeing Qi Yan's expression, Xue Zimu immediately understood the reason for Qu Fei's panic. When Qi Yan stared at him before, Xue Zimu felt that the other party looked like a stern dean, but now Qi Yan's expression became more fierce, almost like a kidnapper who could tear up his ticket in the next second, Xue Zimu couldn't help but feel sad There is apprehension.
It's no wonder that rumors of Qi Yan's cruelty and sadism are rampant. In fact, this face is quite scary to look at. Qi Yan doesn't do anything. As long as he puts out such a terrible face, he will become a person who is very likely in the hearts of the gossip crowd. Evidence of reliability.
However, because he was basically convinced that the other party was not as scary as the rumors said, Xue Zimu was shocked at first, but soon became natural. After all, thanks to Yao Yue's "blessing" in his previous life, he also faced those underworld thugs who were really vicious and took human life as a joke, so he was not too afraid of Qi Yan who just looked a little fierce.
So Xue Zimu took the initiative to say hello to the other party after being stunned: "... Hello, I'm Xue Zimu."
Seeing that Xue Zimu was not afraid of him, Qi Yan's expression softened a little. He nodded and introduced himself, "Qi Yan."
Qi Yan's voice was relatively low, which made him appear more calm and majestic. Not many people heard what he said clearly, but Qi Yan is the focus of attention of the audience, almost everyone saw him nodding to Xue Zimu and talking to him. For a moment, the sound of incredulous inhalation spread throughout the banquet hall.
Xue Zimu heard a few words from Yao Yue and the Qu family beside him, and looked at them inexplicably. He didn't know much about the rumors about Qi Yan in the upper circles in Beijing, that is, what Xue Lin told him in his previous life, so he didn't realize how special Qi Yan treated him.
Everyone in the upper circles in Beijing knows that Qi Yan, the second youngest of the Qi family, is a strange creature who never says "nonsense". The "nonsense" here is not the kind of nonsense that ordinary people understand, but Qi Yan basically never speaks at other times except for giving instructions in short words when working. He doesn't greet or chat with others, and doesn't discuss and socialize with others, because he is too serious, Qi Yan even has another nickname of "Living Hades".
Of course, in front of familiar relatives and friends, Qi Yan is not so silent, but in front of outsiders, unless it is really necessary, Qi Yan will not say a word.
Everyone who came to this banquet knew this, and it was precisely because of their understanding that they were very surprised that Qi Yan would talk to Xue Zimu. After being surprised, everyone's emotions became different. For example, Yao Yue was surprised, but for Qu Fei and Mrs. Qu, they were panicked.
Qi Yan's actions made Qu Fei and Mrs. Qu's already heightened sense of crisis towards Xue Zimu, and Mrs. Qu quickly pushed Qu Fei secretly, asking him to show his face in front of Qi Yan.
Qu Fei is willing to marry Qi Yan, although it is not out of affection, but he is also very satisfied with Qi Yan's various conditions, especially his appearance. But when facing each other, Qu Fei found that the nickname "Living Hades" is not an exaggeration. Qi Yan's cold and stern expression made Qu Fei completely indifferent to appreciate the face that originally made him feel pleasing, but only felt trembling. , Almost dare not even let out the atmosphere.
So Mrs. Qu pushed him but didn't push him, because Qu Fei realized that he had called the other party just now but there was no response, so it would probably be self-defeating to get close to him at this time. And thinking that Qi Yan probably heard what he said to ridicule Xue Zimu before, Qu Fei didn't dare to move forward. What he said was really not pleasant, although he thought it was true, but at the banquet held by Qi's family, he slapped Qi's family in the face by criticizing the guests, Qi Yan must not be happy.
Seeing this, Mrs. Qu felt that iron could not be made into steel, but Qu Fei was smarter this time. Sure enough, Qi Yan didn't even share his eyes with the others. After introducing himself to Xue Zimu, he said directly: "My mother wants to see you."
"Ah?" Xue Zimu's first reaction was to be at a loss, and at the same time, he couldn't help shouting: Why did something strange happen again! ! Is it because this guy in front of me looked at me for a while longer? I obviously didn't do anything, so why on earth did he want to look at me! !
"You don't want to?" Seeing that Xue Zimu didn't agree immediately, Qi Yan asked directly, and the pressure in his eyes became a little stronger.
Although Xue Zimu was not afraid of him, he was still a little stressed, so he quickly agreed. Seeing this, Qi Yan paused, and then took Xue Zimu, who was still a little dazed, away.
Yao Yue, Qu Fei and others who were also in a daze looked at Qi Yan and Xue Zimu's backs leaving side by side for a while before they came back to their senses. The two were not too close, but they looked very harmonious. Mrs. Qu realized that the momentum that she had spent a lot of effort before was probably going to be in vain. Glancing at Yao Yue who was also full of astonishment, Mrs. Qu snorted angrily, grabbed Qu Fei, turned and left.
Bai Xinlan and Yuan Manhuan were on the second floor watching Qi Yan's "hero saving the beauty" with great interest, but when they saw Qi Yan take him away without saying a word, they looked at each other in dismay. Immediately afterwards, Bai Xinlan realized something, and stared at Xu Chi, "Xiao Chi, tell me honestly, Ah Yan really just met someone today?"
"Ah?" Xu Chi was at a loss when he heard the words, "Otherwise?"
Bai Xinlan looked angrily, "I just saw him today and he is about to bring him to me. I don't even know the name of his child! How outrageous!"
Xu Chi suddenly didn't know how to answer the conversation, Bai Xinlan continued to complain: "I was going to find out more clearly before meeting my daughter-in-law, but he came to me like this, it's not like I didn't tell my parents in advance, just put my son What's the difference if a daughter-in-law takes her home? If this guy is really angry, I won't be reconciled!"
Bai Xinlan wasn't really that angry, but since she was a child, Qi Yan had always gone her own way, and sometimes she seemed a little disrespectful when she did things too directly. Bai Xinlan had always hoped that her son would understand the ways of the world, but now she was rejected by her in such a big matter as a daughter-in-law candidate. To disrupt the plan and affect the majesty of her elders, it is impossible not to hold her breath. Seeing this, Yuan Manhuan quickly smiled and comforted him: "Ah Yan, this kid won't lie, most likely he really likes him by bringing someone here now, and maybe it's also to help that kid out of trouble. Anyway, this time he can pick someone he really likes." It’s a great thing, compared to other things, it doesn’t matter.”
When Bai Xinlan heard Yuan Manhuan's words, she thought it was true. How many times she had arranged blind dates for Qi Yan before, and how many times Qi Yan had embarrassed the woman. Not coming out made her angry and sad every time. In such a comparison, the point of anger this time is really not that serious, after all, this time there is nothing to worry about.
After Yuan Manhuan persuaded her, Bai Xinlan quickly calmed down, and she was a little happy when she was calm. She didn't expect that the eldest son would bring the person he likes to her for a review one day.
When Xue Zimu followed Qi Yan to the destination, what he saw were Bai Xinlan and Yuan Manhuan who were all smiling. Xu Chi stood by and looked at him covertly for a while, then gave Qi Yan a teasing look.
Qi Yan ignored him and introduced them, "Xue Zimu." Then he motioned to Xue Zimu: "My mother."
"Hello, Auntie!" Xue Zimu hurriedly bowed to say hello. After all, he intends to marry Qi Yan this time. Although it is a marriage without feelings, he still needs to respect his elders.
Bai Xinlan took a closer look at Xue Zimu's face, and found that this face looked more dazzling, and ordinary people would not be able to hold it down, but it was quite balanced with Qi Yan's ice-like "coffin face", and she was a little satisfied immediately. She helped up Xue Zimu who was bowing and bowing, and said with a smile: "Don't be so polite, let's stop standing outside, let's talk in another place."
Facing Bai Xinlan and Xue Zimu, he was somewhat nervous, especially Qi Yan, who was easily nervous, was also staring at him. Fortunately, Bai Xinlan didn't mean to embarrass him, the questions she asked were not difficult to answer, and her attitude was very kind. Xue Zimu didn't think there was any problem with his identity, anyway, it was Xue Li who abandoned his wife and son to climb another career, not him. In the previous life, the Qi family must have conducted an investigation before choosing him, so the two sides chatted fairly well.
After getting a general understanding of Xue Zimu's life experience, Bai Xinlan didn't comment on Xue Li, but felt sorry for Shu Qing, while Qi Yan frowned upon hearing this.
Xue Zimu saw that they were not dissatisfied with him, but instead felt a little shameful towards Xue Li, and felt a little secretly happy.
Although this may be a bit of a use, but he really wants to use the mountain of the Qi family to put pressure on the Xue family. After all, compared to the Xue family, his own strength is really not worth mentioning. Of course, with the help of the Qi family, he will try his best to give back. In this life, he can definitely earn more from online writing than in his previous life. As long as the Xue family can get what they deserve, he is willing to give all the money to the Qi family!
