After hearing Jing Boyuan's words, Ye Qingxin lowered her head and smiled, her heart warmed slightly.
At this time, guests had arrived one after another, the two stood at the door for a while, and several young and middle-aged men shook hands with Jing Boyuan.
Ye Qingxin took the initiative to move aside to make room for them.
Jing Boyuan smiled at the corner of his mouth when he greeted people, but that smile was different from the light smile he used to face Ye Qingxin before. It was mostly polite and vaguely alienated. When facing Ye Qingxin, his smile revealed the relaxation and joy from the heart.
Occasionally, some people cast their eyes on Ye Qingxin who was quietly standing aside. Although there was inquiry in their eyes, it was only for a short moment, and their attention was soon turned to Jing Boyuan.
Obviously, chatting with Jing Boyuan is more important than paying attention to a young and beautiful girl.
Although many people in the circle knew that Jing Boyuan had a girlfriend, not many people had met Ye Qingxin.
Ye Qingxin always smiles back whenever someone looks at her, it's polite.
In the banquet hall.
Jing Zong and Jing Yan and Jing Suosuo's father greeted the guests at the door.
Ye Qingxin took Jing Boyuan's arm and walked into the banquet hall. Although there were not many guests at this time, their probing eyes still made her feel a little nervous. She raised her head and chest, trying to make her eyes look calmer and calmer, and her smile more natural.
However, the palms still couldn't restrain the wet sweat.
Jing Boyuan seemed to have checked, raised his hand and patted the back of her hand, looked down, "I'm here, don't be afraid."
His gaze was gentle, easily soothing the tension in Ye Qingxin's heart, she smiled at him, "Yes."
"Dad, third uncle." Jing Boyuan greeted Jing Zong and Jing Yan.
Jing Zong nodded, Jing Yan pointed to the door of the rest room, and said, "Your grandma is over there, let's go."
Jing Boyuan nodded towards Jing Yan, and led Ye Qingxin to the rest room. Along the way, many men shook hands with him, stopped and walked, and there was a delay.
When Jing Boyuan shook hands with people, he bent his waist slightly to show respect, but his bossy air did not diminish at all.
The rest room is very large, with several sets of sofas, and many ladies, old or young, are sitting there. All of them are dressed in Chinese costumes and jewelry, and with the luxurious decoration of the hotel, the whole rest room looks extraordinarily bright and jeweled.
Ye Qingxin thought to herself: No wonder just now I saw that most of them were men, but it turned out that the ladies were all accompanying Madam Jing in the lounge.
And Mrs. Jing was surrounded by the crowd like a bright moon in the main seat.
As soon as Ye Qingxin entered the rest room, Mrs. Jing saw it, and when she heard someone asking, she smiled and said bluntly: "That's my granddaughter-in-law, why is she beautiful, right? Our Ayuan has a good eye. In the future, my big fat grandson will be fat and good-looking."
Mrs. Jing never forgets her great-grandson who is still missing.
"That's for sure. Ah Yuan has a good eye for business. He has been able to spread the name of Pauway Group abroad in just over ten years, and he must have a first-class eye for picking a wife." Some people followed suit.
"But whose daughter is this girl, I don't seem to have seen it in the circle before, did she just come back from studying abroad?" someone asked again.
"It doesn't matter if it's worth a lot of money, as long as we, Ah Yuan, like it, as long as it's a girl from a clean and good family, nothing else matters." Mrs. Jing is not an old-fashioned person who insists on being well-matched.
It's just that when she said this, those who didn't know Ye Qingxin's background understood in their hearts that the little girl was probably from a bad background.
The Jing family is a military and political family, and Jing Boyuan is a ruthless figure in the business world. Those who want to climb up the high branches of the Jing family, there are many people present, and they have sharpened their heads and failed to squeeze through the door of the Jing family. Today, a little-known little girl slipped through the door.
Looking at Ye Qingxin, there was a bit of judgment, this little girl looked only twenty, and her methods were not small.
Ye Qingxin tried her best to ignore those sights that made her uncomfortable, and with a decent smile, she took Jing Boyuan's arm and walked in front of Mrs. Jing, and handed over the jewelry box in her hand, "Grandma, I wish you a long life, this is for you, I hope you like it."
She said that she did not directly state that the gift was from her.
Mrs. Jing knew her status and financial resources very well. She couldn't afford such expensive jewels. I believe Mrs. Jing also knew that she was borrowing flowers to present to Buddha.
Saying this now, bystanders will subconsciously think that this gift was given by her, and even if Mrs. Jing wants to find fault, she can't find anything wrong.
This is the art of language, and Ye Qingxin only knows a little bit about it.
Ji Yi Jing Suosuo's mother stood beside Mrs. Jing and helped to receive the presents. She was about to go forward to take the jewelry box in Ye Qingxin's hand. Mrs. Jing reached out to take it first, and said with a smile, "Let me see what Xinxin gave me."
Someone next to it joked: "The old lady is really biased. We just gave you a gift, and I didn't see you opening it so eagerly. It really is a grandson-in-law, and the treatment is different from us."
"That's right, old lady, you old man is very biased."
Mrs. Jing was smiling, and the moment she opened the box, her cloudy eyes lit up.
She loves all kinds of jadeite products, and emerald is the best among jadeites, but she didn't show anything. She took a look at it and handed it to Ji Yi beside her, "Thank you Xinxin, grandma likes it very much."
After all, she is the mistress of a big family, so her words and deeds should not be demeaning.
Ye Qingxin smiled: "As long as grandma likes it." After speaking, she called out to Ji Yi: "Third Aunt."
Mrs. Jing patted the seat next to her, "My good boy, come and sit beside grandma."
Ye Qingxin glanced at Jing Boyuan, who nodded slightly towards her.
When Ye Qingxin sat down beside Mrs. Jing, Jing Boyuan said to Mrs. Jing and Ji Yidao: "Grandma, Third Aunt, I'll go out first." Then he said to all the female guests: "Excuse me."
Every word and deed is good self-cultivation and demeanor.
After finishing speaking, Jing Boyuan turned around and left, leaving Ye Qingxin at Mrs. Jing's side with confidence.
Ye Qingxin: ""
People came in one after another to celebrate their birthday.
Ye Qingxin was smiling, and because of her outstanding looks, she was sitting next to Mrs. Jing, and everyone who came to celebrate her birthday would ask her about her identity intentionally or unintentionally.
Mrs. Jing always happily replied: "My grandson-in-law."
Finally, two acquaintances entered the lounge, Gu Jiao and Wen Renxi.
Seeing Ye Qingxin next to Mrs. Jing, Gu Jiao was stunned for a moment, but Wen Renxi was not surprised. The two handed gifts and said birthday speeches respectively.
Wen Renxi wondered if he sensed Ye Qingxin's unease, and called out: "Xinxin." Then he said to Mrs. Jing, "Old Madam, last night Bo Yuan brought Xinxin to my restaurant for dinner. As soon as I saw Xinxin, I fell in love with her from the bottom of my heart. Can you lend me your precious granddaughter-in-law for a while so I can chat with her?"
The color of Wen Renxi's gown is very plain, the style is simple and elegant, it makes people feel very comfortable and relaxed when she wears it, and I can't help but want to set my eyes on her.
She is very attractive, not because of her good-looking appearance, but because of her simple temperament that can make people feel at ease, which is very moving.
Mrs. Jing smiled, "I can borrow it from you, but don't bully my granddaughter-in-law."
Wen Renxi: "The old lady still doesn't understand that I am such a savage person"
Ye Qingxin couldn't get what she wanted, and cast a grateful look at Wen Renxi.
To be honest, she knew Mrs. Jing and Ji Yi in the rest room, and she was not very familiar with them. The rest of the female guests always looked at her with scrutiny, which made her feel uncomfortable.
Ye Qingxin, Wen Renxi, and Gu Jiao walked to the group of sofas by the window and sat down. This place was far away from Mrs. Jing, and everyone wanted to please Mrs. Jing, so this seat was ignored.
"It's been a long time." Just as Wen Renxi sat down, Xifan came out from nowhere and jumped onto her lap.
Ye Qingxin smiled, "Not long."
"You have to get used to this kind of occasion. You will marry Boyuan in the future. There will be bigger occasions than this. At that time, you will be judged by more people." Wen Renxi's voice was as simple as hers, which made people feel at ease when they heard it.
Ye Qingxin nodded to be taught, "I will work hard, thank you Sister Xi."
Wen Renxi seemed to be thinking of something, and said to Ye Qingxin: "You don't know this one yet, her name is Gu Jiao."
Gu Jiao smiled and said: "Sister Xi, I know Xinxin earlier than you, right Xinxin?"
Ye Qingxin looked at Gu Jiao, smiled and called: "Sister Jiaojiao."
Just about to look back, Ye Qingxin stared at Gu Jiao's chest for a moment.
I didn't notice just now that the necklace around Gu Jiao's neck is the same as the one her mother gave her. It has eye-shaped design, long eyelashes, a round and large sapphire as the eyeball, and a drop-shaped sapphire at the corner of the eye, like a drop of blue tears.
The only difference is that the teardrops and eyelashes are reversed, as if one is the left eye and the other is the right eye.
The one in Gu Jiao's neck is the right eye, and the one in hers is the left eye.
Ye Qingxin was thoughtful, Gu Jiao noticed her gaze, touched the necklace on her chest, and asked with a smile: "Is this sapphire necklace very special?"
Ye Qingxin looked back and nodded.
is very special.
Gu Jiao said: "I heard from grandma that my uncle designed it for my aunt back then. You may not know that my aunt is my grandma's own daughter. It's a pity that she was so beautiful and long gone."
As if thinking of something sad, Gu Jiao lowered her voice a bit, "I heard from grandma that my aunt and uncle had a very good relationship back then. They grew up as childhood sweethearts, and they never quarreled after they got together. It's probably because of the jealousy of the heavens, a disaster happened that took the lives of the three of them."
Ye Qingxin glanced at Gu Jiao's neck involuntarily, "There shouldn't be many such special necklaces in the world."
"That's natural, it's designed and made by my uncle himself, it's the only one in the world." Gu Jiao is determined, with a little pride.
Ye Qingxin pursed her lower lip, and asked calmly, "Then, what if there is someone like you?"
"It's an imitation." Gu Jiao said with a smile: "Grandma said that my uncle designed this necklace at the time, which once caused a sensation in the jewelry design circle at that time. Many jewelers wanted to buy the copyright of my uncle's design, but my uncle didn't sell it. In private, some people with low moral character will inevitably steal my uncle's design and make some imitations."
Ye Qingxin nodded and didn't get too entangled in this matter.
The counterfeiting ability of Chinese people should not be underestimated. The one in her hand is probably a counterfeit product.
It was right to think about it. With her family conditions, it was impossible for her mother to buy expensive jewelry.
Fortunately, some time ago, she felt that wearing the necklace was in the way of taking a bath, so she took it off and put it in the small interlayer of the box, otherwise, if she wore it, it would be a joke.
Wen Renxi saw that the two were chatting so familiarly, and said with a smile: "You guys know each other, so I'll save you the introduction." After speaking, he lowered his head and touched Xifan's cat head, "Xifan, why didn't you say hello to the beautiful sisters?"
Xifan raised his head and lazily meowed at Ye Qingxin and Gu Jiao twice.
Ye Qingxin couldn't help but look at the cat's face a few more times, those light brown cat eyes shone with spirituality.
Gu Jiao: "Sister Xi, Xifan sneaked in under your skirt again."
Wen Renxi laughed: "You guessed wrong, this time it climbed in through the window."
Gu Jiao was surprised: "This is the tenth floor, how did it climb in?"
Hearing people laughed, kissed the cat's head, "We have our own way of Xifan, don't we, Xifan?"
Xifan raised her head and meowed, with a slightly smug expression on her face.
Ye Qingxin deeply felt that the civet cat had become a spirit.
After a while, Jing Suosuo came in, Ji Yi called her to him and said something, she pouted unhappily, her eyes flicked around, and when she saw Ye Qingxin, she ran towards Ye Qingxin, Ji Yi shook her head behind her and sighed.
Jing Suosuo said hello to Gu Jiao and Wen Renxi first, and then sat down next to Ye Qingxin, "Xinxin, when did you come?"
Ye Qingxin smiled: "It will only be a while."
Before Jing Suosuo's butt was warmed up, the Sheng family came in. Mr. Sheng and Mrs. Sheng walked in front, and Yu Gengxin and Yu Qingyou walked last.
Mrs. Jing stood up to greet her.
Jing Suosuo's eyes lit up. After the greetings were over, Yu Gengxin and Mr. Sheng went out, and hurriedly straightened his hair. Before he could say hello, he got up and ran out.
Ye Qingxin gave Jing Suosuo a strange look.
When she retracted her gaze, she inadvertently met Yu Qingyou's gaze. From a distance, Ye Qingxin smiled slowly at Yu Qingyou, calmly and decently, the smile on Yu Qingyou's face stagnated, and then turned her head to greet the group of rich and famous ladies around her.
The closer it was to the start of the birthday banquet, the more guests came in to celebrate the birthday.
When the guests had almost arrived and almost no one came in to celebrate the birthday, Ye Qingxin discovered that Mrs. Yan hadn't arrived.
"Sister Jiaojiao, why didn't Grandma Yan come?"
Gu Jiao replied with a smile: "Don't worry, I just sent a text message to ask, and I'm downstairs in the hotel, come up immediately."
Sure enough, within five minutes, the old couple of the Yan family and the Gu Xingde couple came in, and Gu Jiao immediately got up and walked over.
After a while, he came over with Mrs. Yan again.
"Xinxin." Mrs. Yan was very happy to see Ye Qingxin, her old eyes were shining brightly.
Ye Qingxin stood up and took a few steps forward, "Grandma, long time no see, I've been fine recently"
Mrs. Yan took Ye Qingxin's hand and sat down, and said: "Okay, okay, I'm very happy when you think about it. I didn't expect you to get along with that kid from Lao Jing's family. It's okay, I watched A Yuan grow up. He is a good boy with responsibility and responsibility, and he is worthy of our hearts."
Gu Jiao held Mrs. Yan's arm at the right time and acted like a baby, "Grandma, let's see, who should you invite as your god-granddaughter?"
Mrs. Yan stretched out her hand and poked Gu Jiao's forehead, "You, you are already twenty-six, and I don't agree with this or that, so why send you to a nunnery?"
After a pause, he said again: "You, hurry up too, this girl has to get married and have children as soon as she reaches her age."
Probably regardless of class status, all parents look forward to their children getting married and having children early.
Gu Jiao smiled: "Didn't grandma just say that she would send me to a nunnery, which is just right, so you don't have to keep urging me to get married in my ears."
"You." Mrs. Yan said helplessly, "Look at his heart, the marriage is settled when you are only 20, and you are already 26, when can you save me some time?"
"Grandma" Gu Jiao shook Old Madam Yan's arm, "Not everyone can be as lucky as Xinxin. If you meet someone you like early on, even if you meet someone you like, if the other party doesn't like you, it's useless. This kind of thing depends on fate, so don't rush."
Madam Yan smiled: "You can figure it out."
Gu Jiao drooped her eyelashes, and the corner of her mouth had a slightly bitter smile, "What can I do if I can't figure it out? You can't know that it's the south wall, so you have to hit it hard."
Mrs. Yan looked at her in surprise, "Did you fall in love with someone?"
Before the word "no" could be said, Gu Jiao's eyes suddenly caught the tall man who came in from the door of the lounge, and the rest of the words were stuck in her throat. After a while, she lowered her head again and finished speaking, "No, grandma."
Wen Renxi glanced at Gu Jiao thoughtfully, then at Jing Boyuan who was walking over, then he lowered his head and stroked the cat's head without saying anything.
Jing Boyuan came over and greeted Mrs. Yan first, and then said to Ye Qingxin: "Come out with me to meet someone."
Ye Qingxin obediently stood up, talked to Mrs. Yan, Wen Renxi, and Gu Jiao, and prepared to go out with Jing Boyuan.
Just as Jing Boyuan was about to turn around, his eyes suddenly fell on Xifan, and he frowned slightly, "Why did it come in?"
Wen Renxi continued to stroke the cat's head, "Climb the window."
After a pause, he continued: "Don't worry, I won't shit and piss in your hotel, I won't bite your distinguished guests, um, I'll just lose some hair, we've been friends for so many years, you shouldn't mind, right?"
Jing Boyuan: "Don't bring it here next time."
Wen Renxi: "Then don't invite me next time."
Jing Boyuan: "Second Uncle is here, we want to meet together"
Wen Renxi picked up the champagne brought by the waiter before, took a sip, and his tone suddenly became tough and resolute: "No."
Jing Boyuan's attitude was indifferent, as if he just asked casually, "Okay then, but the second uncle said he would only stay for a while, he has a task tomorrow and must go back in the afternoon."
Wen Renxi's movement of stroking the cat's head froze for a moment, and then resumed his original unhurried speed, lowering his eyelids and saying nothing.
Ye Qingxin followed Jing Boyuan out of the lounge. Although she was curious about the relationship between Wen Renxi and Jing Boyuan's second uncle, she didn't want to pry into other people's secrets, so she didn't ask anything.
People in the banquet hall chatted in small groups, Jing Boyuan directly led Ye Qingxin to a tall and burly man surrounded by many people.
That man gave people a sense of iron and blood from a distance, and the gaze he looked at was extremely intimidating.
It's just that the deterrent power is different from Jing Boyuan's deterrent power.
Jing Boyuan is the deterrent power of the leader, making people dare not go against Bo Yuan's wishes and orders, while the man is the deterrent power of the law enforcement officer, making people not have the slightest thought of doing bad things in front of him, and even can't help but reflect on whether he has done anything illegal in the past, for fear of accidentally being exposed to that man's ruthless gaze.
When he came to him, Jing Boyuan introduced: "Xinxin, this is my second uncle."
Ye Qingxin frowned, and smiled sweetly, "Hello, Second Uncle, my name is Ye Qingxin."
Jing Yi's complexion is black and yellow, but his features are handsome. He is as tall as Jing Boyuan, with a strong body. The suit is tight on his arms, and his muscles seem to tear through the fabric of the suit.
He lowered his head and looked down at Ye Qingxin, nodded his head without making a sound.
Ye Qingxin didn't feel embarrassed either. His seriousness probably had something to do with his duties. A person who protects his family and country deserves respect.
Jing Boyuan asked: "When will we leave?"
Jing Yi glanced at his watch, "There are still ten minutes."
Jing Boyuan: "I have seen grandma."
Jing Yi: "It's fine if I come, it doesn't matter if I see you or not."
Jing Boyuan's tone was admonishing, "Things have passed for so long"
Jing Yi interrupted him, "In my opinion, it seems like it happened yesterday, okay, I'll go say hello to your father and your third uncle, and let's go."
As he spoke, he really walked towards the door, greeted Jing Zong and Jing Yan who were welcoming guests, and left straight away.
Ye Qingxin looked at the direction Jing Yi was leaving, and felt that the way he was talking to Jing Boyuan was not like an uncle or nephew, but more like an old friend.
Instead, she thought about what Jing Suosuo told her before, and vaguely understood what Jing Boyuan meant when he said that so long had passed.
I'm afraid it has something to do with the prostitute that Jing Suosuo was talking about.
When Ye Qingxin looked back, she inadvertently glanced at the door of the lounge.
There, Wen Renxi stood quietly with a wedding meal in his arms, his eyes followed the direction Jing Yi left, with sadness and obsession.
Ye Qingxin somewhat understands the relationship between Wen Renxi and Jing Boyuan's second uncle, it's probably another story of an idiot complaining about a man complaining about a woman.
The banquet was about to begin, and everyone sat in their seats under the arrangement of the person in charge.
Ye Qingxin followed Jing Boyuan to the main table.
Silently, she revealed her identity to the outside world, the mistress of the Jing family in the future.
Jing Zong came to the stage and said some grandiose words, then toasted everyone, and the birthday banquet officially began.
Mrs. Jing couldn't drink, so Jing Zong and Jing Yan toasted each table on her behalf, and then the people below came to the main table to toast one after another.
Jing Boyuan has already declared Ye Qingxin's identity to the outside world with his actions, and those who came to toast will naturally not miss Ye Qingxin, the future mistress of the Jing family. Although no one can say for sure what will happen in the future, at least, if you please her now, you will also please Jing Boyuan.
Jing Boyuan had long since substituted Ye Qingxin's wine for grape juice.
Ye Qingxin couldn't remember how many glasses of grape juice she drank, but she felt that her bladder gradually became swollen, and she was becoming more and more uncontrollable.
While everyone was toasting, Ye Qingxin asked Jing Boyuan in a low voice, "Where is the toilet?"
Jing Boyuan: "Go out and turn right, walk to the end."
Ye Qingxin got up, said sorry to everyone, and walked out of the banquet hall.
When she got to the bathroom, she almost rushed into the cubicle. After she was released, she couldn't help but sigh in relief.
Suddenly there was the sound of stilettos stepping on the floor outside, followed by a loud female voice, "You see that she is so dirty, she just came out of a small household, she just can't get on the stage, she's wearing some kind of ashes, did you roll in the ashes before you came here?"
Another voice said: "Small family also has the advantages of small family. At least I have no education. I don't know what shame is. She can let go of serving men. She can do any tricks. She is willing to make a man die on her. Otherwise, why would she defeat so many ladies and ladies and succeed in becoming a leader?"
Another voice said, "That's right, he has a vicious look on his face, and when he sits there, he can smell that coquettish smell from ten meters away."
"The little girl now is really amazing. She dares to do anything for the sake of glory, wealth and vanity. She looks like she is only in her twenties. She is with a man who can be her father. I don't know if she will think of her father when she is in bed."
After Ye Qingxin solved the three emergencies, she stood up as if nothing had happened. The flushing system in the hotel bathroom was sensory. As soon as she stood up, the sink flushed immediately.
With a bang, the sound outside stopped abruptly.
There was only a moment of silence, and the conversation continued, "Sister Qingyou, we really feel wronged for you, what's good about that little girl's film, you suffer because of her good education, she can't do those shameless tricks."
-----Off Topic-----
The second watch is late, the small theater apologizes:
Mou Yao: Uncle Jing, your little heart was verbally attacked in the bathroom.
A certain uncle read the newspaper calmly.
Mou Yao: Uncle Jing, do you love Xin Xin? Your Xin Xin was verbally attacked in the bathroom.
The uncle took a sip of tea.
Mou Yao: Uncle Jing, your careful heart was verbally attacked in the bathroom
A certain uncle squinted over: What do you think of me
Mou Yao: Of course, I hired a group of bodyguards to beat those who said bad things all over the place.
A certain uncle took out his mobile phone and made a call.
Half an hour later, a group of big men in black clothes and sunglasses beat Mou Yao all over the floor.
A certain Yao called out: Uncle Jing, where did you find the bodyguard to complain about the wrong number
A certain uncle calmed down: No mistake.
A certain Yao yelled: You made a mistake and I told you to hit those who said bad things, not me
A certain uncle continued to remain calm: Those bad words, which one was not written by you, if you hit someone else
Mou Yao: Is there a monthly pass? Is there an evaluation ticket
