Warlord's House.
Lu Huai received an invitation from Yin Guowei, Director of the General Affairs Department of the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs.
Because of the friendship between Yin Guowei and Governor Lu. Although Lu Huai does not like this kind of banquet, Lu Huai will definitely go to this banquet.
Lu Huai randomly placed the invitation on the side of his desk, and continued to handle his official duties.
Ye Mansion.
On Ye Chu's desk is a red invitation card with the name of the invitee-Ye Chu written in the bronzing font.
This invitation was sent by Yin Shiyan, the daughter of the Director of the General Affairs Department of the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs, and the banquet was hosted by Yin Shiyan's father.
Many celebrities from Shanghai Beach were invited to the banquet.
Yin Shiyan is also a student of Xinli Middle School. She also participated in the last academic exchange meeting with Peking students.
Yin Shiyan was also spoiled and raised since he was a child. He is simple and innocent, and speaks out the things he can't understand. Ye Jiarou seduce Yang Huaili and drop the lotus pond. Yin Shiyan's mouth was promoted.
Because of the closeness of the class, Ye Chu and Yin Shiyan have met several times, and the two are not unfamiliar.
The date written on the post was three days later, and Ye Chu put the invitation in the drawer.
When the post was given to Ye Chu, it happened to be seen by Ye Jiarou. When Ye Jiarou saw that Ye Chu received the invitation, she thought that she would definitely receive it too.
On this day, Ye Jiarou waited left and right, but still couldn't wait for her invitation. She always felt that Yin Shiyan, the daughter of the Director of the General Affairs Department of the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs, had just forgotten her
Because of the trouble at the Yan Manman banquet, Yin Shiyan did not like Ye Jiarou, and at the same time wanted to embarrass her, not inviting Ye Jiarou was also expected by Ye Chu.
Although Ye Chu didn't mind this matter at all, when Ye Jiarou realized that she hadn't received the invitation, she was so angry that she threw everything in the house to the ground.
Again, why Ye Chu could get Yin Shiyan's invitation, but she was ignored and embarrassed her.
Although Ye Jiarou was trembling with anger, she still had to talk to Ye Chu and let Ye Chu give her a ride. Having to go to Ye Chu for help with this matter, it's annoying to think about it.
The next day, Ye Jiarou approached Ye Chu, hoping that she could bring herself there.
When she arrived at Ye Chu, Ye Jiarou put away her real appearance, and instead pretended to be gentle.
Ye Jiarou whispered softly: "Sister, will you go to Miss Yin's banquet tomorrow?"
Ye Chu came back from his mother and was on the way to his room, but was stopped by Ye Jiarou.
Ye Chu saw Ye Jiarou's thoughts at a glance, and nodded: "Of course I will go."
Ye Jiarou hated secretly in her heart, but her voice became more gentle: "Then sister, can you take me for a ride? I want to go with her."
If Ye Chu could take her with her, it wouldn't be a big deal if there was no invitation letter. As long as they went in together, they wouldn't be stopped.
Ye Jiarou's abacus was playing loudly, but Ye Chu refused her unexpectedly.
"Karou, are you invited?"
Ye Jiarou shook her head.
"Karou, do you have an invitation?"
Ye Jiarou was so angry that she wanted to tear her handkerchief.
Ye Chu shrugged and told Ye Jiarou the facts: "Then I can't help it."
Yin Shiyan didn't give Ye Jiarou an invitation, which meant that she didn't want to see Ye Jiarou. If Ye Chu insisted on taking Ye Jiarou with her, it would be impossible.
Besides, Ye Chu didn't want to see Ye Jiarou either, and she thought about it early if she refused.
Although this is true, Ye Jiarou's original intention was not to listen to this, but to let Ye Chu take her a ride and give her convenience.
Ye Jiarou felt that Ye Chu really didn't have much vision, and she couldn't see the meaning of this.
Ye Jiarou pretended to be sad: "Sister, you must have an invitation. If you can take me in, then the problem will be solved."
Ye Chu still poured cold water and refused Ye Jiarou again: "Then I will call Miss Yin now and ask her if she can take you there."
"Don't don't don't, you don't have to trouble Miss Yin for this little thing." Ye Jiarou hurriedly stopped Ye Chu.
If Ye Chu really made a phone call to Yin Shiyan, then her wish to go to the banquet would be completely wiped out. Now she only needs to find other people, and she will have the opportunity.
She thought that Ye Chu could conscientiously find out to do her a favor, but she didn't expect Ye Chu to still be annoying.
Ye Chu nodded slightly, and said something unintentionally.
"I forgot. I don't know what the number of the Yin family's mansion is. I'll ask next time. I'll call it for you."
Ye Jiarou looked at the back of Ye Chu leaving, her eyes were red with anger, she was obviously playing a trick on herself deliberately.
Although this incident was not pleasant to Ye Jiarou. But for Aunt Jiang, it was a great thing.
Ye Junzhao has been unwell these days, coupled with Ye Jiarou's embarrassment last time, made him lose face. Ye Junzhao loves face and naturally doesn't want to be someone else's after-dinner conversation.
He simply pushed the banquet and stayed at home to rest.
Ye Chu's mother, Su Lan, went back to her natal family, so Aunt Jiang and Ye Junzhao were the only ones left at home.
Last time Ye Junzhao was angry with Aunt Jiang because of Ye Jiarou's affairs. The anger at that time hadn't subsided. Naturally, Aunt Jiang wanted to use her best efforts to win Ye Junzhao's favor.
I just don't know what kind of stinky face Ye Junzhao will give Aunt Jiang, because in his opinion, nothing is more important than his own face.
Going to bed early at night, Ye Chu got up early on the day of the banquet, but received a call from Fu Tiantian.
Originally, Ye Chu wanted to go to Yin Shiyan's banquet with Fu Tiantian. They had already agreed and agreed on a time to go out on time.
But last night, Fu Tiantian's grandmother was in a hurry, and the people in his hometown summoned Fu Tiantian to go back overnight, fearing that the old man would suddenly go, and he would not be able to see his granddaughter one last time.
Although it was midnight, the old man's condition stabilized and he was out of danger. But apparently she would not be going to a banquet.
Because of the missed appointment, Fu Tiantian quickly called Ye Chu and said sorry to Ye Chu. Ye Chu comforted her that family talent is the most important thing, so she shouldn't come back in a hurry.
The day after receiving the invitation, Ye Chu was ready to go to the banquet with what to wear.
The director of the General Affairs Department of the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs loves Western-style things. In addition to all kinds of furniture at home, he often wears Western-style clothes.
This banquet was hosted by Director Yin, and everyone would naturally cater to his hobbies. There must be a lot of guests wearing Western-style clothes.
Ye Chu only needs to choose a small dress that is quite satisfactory, not to show the limelight, but also to leave a good impression on Director Yin and Mrs. Yin.
It was already evening when I went out, the banquet was arranged in the evening, and the departure is just right now.
When Ye Chu was ready to set off, there was no Ye Jiarou at the door, and it seemed that Ye Jiarou would not go this time.
That's okay, Ye Chu saw that she was upset, and didn't want to lie to her.
The Ye family's car drove forward slowly, passing the bustling streets of Shanghai Beach, passing a secluded alley, and stopping in front of Director Yin's house.
There were already many cars parked at the door, and Ye Chu did not arrive early, but it was not too late.
Su Lan returned to her family's home. Ye Junzhao didn't want to be asked about Ye Jiarou. No one else was invited, so the only person who came this time was Ye Chu.
Ye Chu's mother is very popular, so naturally a familiar wife came up and asked about Ye Chu's mother.
Mrs. Lin: "A Chu, why did you come by yourself today?"
This Mrs. Lin wore a cheongsam, a little rich, and she spoke softly from Wu Nong.
"Mother has gone to my grandfather's house, and my father is ill." Ye Chu replied earnestly, taking Ye Jiarou with him.
Ye Chu smiled sweetly, greeted her mother's friends one by one, found another reason to say goodbye, and went to the ladies' circle.
Almost everyone at the banquet, Ye Chu, knew each other and had a good relationship. Although there are all kinds of food, drink and fun at the banquet, it is still a bit boring after all.
Ye Chu listened to the two girls next to him discussing the latest clothes and jewelry, and said one sentence from time to time, and time slowly passed by.
After waiting for a long time, Ye Chu went away.
At the other end, Lu Huai also arrived at the Yin's mansion.
Lu Huai went out late in order to spend less time at the banquet so that he could go back earlier. He was not happy with such occasions and felt extremely bored.
Shen Jiu was right. He really didn't care about a lot of things. For him, things that seemed interesting in the eyes of others were the same as walking and eating normally, nothing special.
Lu Huai first met with Director Yin, and then went to the banquet hall. Many people were very pleasantly surprised when they saw Lu Huai, and they rushed forward to talk.
But the people present were all human beings. Seeing Lu Huai's expression, he knew that he was in a bad mood at this time, with the words "Don't get close to strangers" written on his face.
But most of the guests knew Lu Huai's temperament, he was not the kind of person who would greet him with a smile. Lu Huai often had a cold face, and no one would change when he approached him.
There were originally some people who wanted to come forward and talk to Lu Huai, but after a long time, their minds also stopped, and the crowd slowly dispersed.
Lu Huai sat on the sofa in the corner, the shadow blocked most of his body, and the other half was exposed to the light.
Lights and shadows fell on him, Lu Huai looked up inadvertently, and a familiar figure slammed into his eyes.
She is wearing a small dress, her hair has been taken care of, but she will not steal the limelight from others, and she looks quiet and quiet.
Lu Huai sat there, his gaze passed over the guests at the banquet and fell straight on Ye Chu.
In the shadows, his expression was indistinguishable. I don't know what he is thinking.
Ye Chu seemed to be here alone, absent-minded, she leaned against the table where the wine glasses were placed. She is still young, and although the wine glass is on the side, her hands are empty.
The next second, she froze again, staring at the wine glass, and for a long time forgot to remove it.
From the moment Lu Huai discovered Ye Chu, he had been looking at Ye Chu. The banquet is boring, but now it’s okay to stay longer.
Over there, Ye Chu felt a little strange, she seemed to have noticed something, as if someone was watching her.
She turned her head and looked over. Lu Huai was sitting in the corner. He didn't like partying just like usual, so he sat alone.
When Ye Chu looked at Lu Huai, he never looked away. Even if she was seen by her, Lu Huai was still there looking at her.
The two eyes met, and their eyes met.
The banquet was clearly noisy, the surrounding guests were all talking, and there were voices scattered around their ears, but Ye Chu felt that all around him suddenly became quiet.
Lu Huai and Ye Chu were standing and sitting alone. No one moved. They just looked at each other across the long banquet hall.
After a while, Lu Huai stood up suddenly, he walked away from the shadows, his whole person was illuminated by lights.
Not far in front is a long table. The host of the banquet prepared a lot of wine specially for the guests to enjoy.
On the table are glasses of foreign wine, and the wine is placed in a transparent cup, no more, no less.
Lu Huai came to the table and picked up a glass of wine. Following Lu Huai's movements, the wine shook in the glass, reflecting the light.
Lu Huai seldom bends the corner of his mouth. He raised his glass and pointed it far away in Ye Chu's direction.
Before Ye Chu could react, Lu Huai slightly raised his head, drank all the wine in the glass, and rolled his apple up and down.
Ye Chu's face turned hot, and she lowered her head, wanting to find a glass of wine. When her fingertips touched the wine glass, she suddenly closed her hand.
She remembered that she was not old enough to drink, and she was not drinking well. If she touched wine, she didn't know what she would make.
Soon, Ye Chu turned his hand and picked up the juice beside the wine.
Although Lu Huai and Ye Chu are far apart, when Lu Huai stood still staring at Ye Chu, he naturally saw Ye Chu's small movements clearly.
At this moment, Lu Huai's eyes were filled with a smile.
He knew that Ye Chu knew that girls this age should not drink.
Following Lu Huai's previous actions, Ye Chu also raised his glass to Lu Huai, and under his gaze, handed the glass to his mouth.
As soon as the cup touched his lips, Ye Chu smelled a scent, and the rich scent of juice came up, and the air couldn't help but feel some sweetness.
Ye Chu opened his mouth slightly and drank the juice. Xu was learning how Lu Huai had just drunk, but she was a little anxious when she was choked.
Her throat was itchy, and she coughed.
Fearing to disturb other guests, Ye Chu coughed softly while covering his mouth, his fair face turned red and his body was slightly undulating.
After Ye Chuping regained his breath, he put down the cup in his hand.
On the other side of the banquet hall, Lu Huai looked at Ye Chu silently, and all her actions fell into his eyes.
The cup was empty, and there seemed to be some juice remaining on her lips, and she became even more red because of her behavior.
That glass of juice might be very sweet, he thought.
