[16]
How dare Ji Feining forget that Chi Qiu is the benefactor of Ji's family.
If Ji Feining hadn't been delayed by something today and answered a work call from the hotel, otherwise Ji Yanchen would not be able to rescue Chi Qiu.
Ji Feining was dumbfounded, after all, he couldn't say no to this younger brother who was ten years younger than him.
He reluctantly let go, and temporarily slowed down his tone: "You are 22 years old, can you stop being so impulsive when things happen. If something happens to that child today, the most difficult person is Chi Qiu."
"Just a little paprika..."
"Can you say that again?"
Ji Yanchen was silenced by Ji Feining's angry gaze, and quickly changed his mouth: "Brother, you taught me the right lesson! Fortunately, that little bastard is fine, just a false alarm, a false alarm..." He was brought up by Ji Feining since he was a child. A brother is like a father and a mother.
Ji Yanchen was able to bend and stretch in front of Ji Feining, like a spring spirit.
"..."
Ji Feining only felt a row of black lines on his forehead, and he slapped Ji Yanchen's back directly, the pain was so painful that Ji Yanchen couldn't speak.
"Brother, I've already told you, I want to save face outside!" He pointed quietly to the back, and begged, "Where is Lu Ming, if he sees it, I'm ashamed..."
"You should be more polite to Lu Ming, he is not an easy character to fool." Ji Feining pointed at the door of the lounge, raised his chin, and continued to preach, "You disturbed the Lu family's banquet, go in and apologize to Elder Lu. Even if this matter is over, you hurry back with me."
"What should Chi Qiu do if I leave?"
"His business is out of your hands." Ji Feining really had a headache, "You are only here to make trouble for him."
It was a good birthday party, but because of this incident, I had to leave early.
The guests left one after another, and the last ones to leave were the two brothers of the Ji family. Ji Yanchen was worried about Chi Qiu, back and forth trying to find an excuse to stay. Ji Feining almost hit him on the forehead with a cane, and he was "carried" away obediently like a puppy.
Mr. Lu was still in the lounge, and everyone walked in obediently.
Seeing the old man sitting on the chair in the lounge with a tired face, he coughed a few times.
Lu Rongtian was the smartest, he bent down and patted the old man's back to flatter him: "Dad, don't be angry." He handed over a cup of tea, but the old man waved his hand without taking it. Lu Rongtian grinned twice, put the tea on the table, and stood aside.
Chi Qiu obediently followed Lu Ming, trying to minimize his presence and avoid causing Lu Ming any more trouble, but he was particularly eye-catching in a light-colored suit.
The room was silent, and no one spoke first.
Humming buzzing, Lu Ming's cell phone vibrated untimely.
He picked it up and didn't know what the person on the phone said. Lu Ming said flatly to Mr. Lu and Chi Qiu, "I have something to do. I need to go out for a while."
Chi Qiu was shocked, he didn't expect Lu Ming to leave him here alone. He raised his hand uneasily, not wanting to be left here, but stopped: "Lu Ming, I..."
Lu Ming took his hand, took him to a seat, and told him to sit down: "I'll be right back. If anyone makes things difficult for you, don't bother."
This effort of pointing at Sang and scolding Huai inevitably made Lu Rongtian's voice open: "Lu Ming, what do you mean? Did you say that about elders?!"
Lu Ming didn't look directly at Lu Rongtian, and walked out of the lounge indifferently.
"You!" Lu Rong's weather was terrible, he turned to look at old man Lu, and found that the old man had no intention of blaming Lu Ming at all. Lu Rongtian suffered from being dumb, and closed his voice angrily, cursing fiercely in his heart: "Eat the inside out..."
It's just cowardly and shameless.
Not long after, Zhen Zhen walked in wearing a coat and stepping on high-heeled shoes. Lu Rongtian seemed to see a savior, his eyes lit up, and he deliberately mentioned: "Is the child alright?"
"The mouth is all red and swollen." She sighed, "Oh, Junjun is too young, and he doesn't usually eat spicy food, so this mouthful of chili powder will be uncomfortable for a while. You know, children's stomach Weak, my cousin and sister-in-law usually dote on her and raise her children carefully."
Mr. Lu nodded and didn't say much about it. Instead, he looked at Chi Qiu: "Xiao Qiu, tell me the whole story from your point of view."
Chi Qiu nodded, and said everything in detail, and he took the initiative to admit his mistake: "Grandpa, it was our fault for stuffing the cake into Junjun's mouth, I'm sorry. But Yan Chen must have been in a hurry at the time, and accidentally..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhen Zhen suddenly interrupted him: "Accidental? Chi Qiu, anyway, Junjun is only six years old, you and the second young master of the Ji family are both adults after all, why can't you tell the difference? ? Fortunately, our Junjun is not allergic to chili powder, otherwise, what should we do?"
Facing the aggressive Zhen Zhen, Chi Qiu tried hard to explain: "Yan Chen's temper was a bit impatient, I couldn't stop it, it was our fault. But this matter Junjun..."
Zhen Zhen interrupted again: "Yes! Junjun is a bit naughty, he should be beaten, scolded and educated. But you don't know how to eat that cake, so there's no need to stuff it in his mouth."
"Aunt Zhen, I..."
"In case something happens to Junjun, his parents will never end with you." Relying on being the child's aunt, she spoke aggressively in the name of caring.
She didn't intend to let Chi Qiu finish the sentence at all, and she prevailed in every sentence: "Don't blame Aunt Zhen for talking too much, Junjun is my nephew anyway. Besides, you are not proper in doing things. What I said today, you can't We must remember."
Chi Qiu: "..."
In terms of eloquence, how can he compare with the "experienced" Zhen Zhen. Chi Qiu heard from Ji Yanchen that Zhen Zhen used to be a little secretary next to Lu Rongtian. She was eloquent and pretty, so she pried Lu Ming's mother's position.
Chi Qiu thought for a while, this is probably what Lu Ming called "embarrassment". He fell silent, intending to listen to Lu Ming's words and ignore them.
Let Zhen Zhen, who is an "aunt", be like an output machine, blaming herself non-stop.
Time passed by, and Chi Qiu's ears were almost callused. He didn't know what to say, and he couldn't say anything. He lowered his head, feeling uncomfortable by Zhen Zhen's words, and clenched his hands in bewilderment.
Mr. Lu couldn't stand it anymore, and slapped his palm on the table: "That's enough! One bite of chili powder, it won't happen."
Zhen Zhen said anxiously: "Dad!"
"You're worried about the child, there's nothing wrong with that. It's just that Junjun took a bite of chili powder, and you scolded Xiaoqiu all the time. To put it bluntly, what did Xiaoqiu do wrong? This is all caused by Junjun and Ji Yanchen. , you really want to stand up for Junjun, do you want me to send you to Ji's house in person?"
At first, Mr. Lu was considerate of her feelings as the child's aunt, and gave her a step. Unexpectedly, Zhen Zhen came from Shanggang to go online, and did not restrain herself at all.
Mr. Lu was really speechless.
You know, if it wasn't for Ji Yanchen's overbearing and unreasonable brat, this mouthful of chili powder would probably appear on Chi Qiu's clothes or face now.
In the worst case, perhaps because of Junjun's fault, Chi Qiu's eyes might get into it.
However, Zhen Zhen didn't mention any of these.
When the old man said this, Lu Rongtian glanced at Zhen Zhen silently, indicating that she was almost done.
Zhen Zhen had no choice but to put her emotions back, and then, she suddenly wiped away her tears: "Dad, I didn't do it on purpose. The main thing is that today is Yin Liang's birthday party, and this trouble..."
As soon as she cried, Chi Qiu became more and more worried.
Without Lu Ming by his side, Chi Qiu, who didn't go out and interact with people since he was a child, suddenly lost his confidence. He really didn't have the heart to deal with Zhen Zhen, who was full of emotions.
In the end, it was Mr. Lu who listened to the scene, reasoned it out in his heart, and slowly said to Zhen Zhen, "I'm curious about one thing now."
"You say."
"This is a Western-style banquet today, where did you get the chili powder for Junjun's prank?"
Zhen Zhen wasn't worried at all, counting the time, Zhen Rong should have almost done it.
If Mr. Lu had gone to check the surveillance more than ten or twenty minutes earlier, she would definitely be fine.
"I don't know about that, maybe... the kid brought it himself? He has always been very naughty, and he likes to play tricks on people with weird things."
As soon as the voice fell, the door of the lounge was opened again.
Lu Ming decisively brought in a hotel manager with a laptop, and Zhen Rong, who followed them and was forcibly held up by two security guards.
