In a branch of Guanghe Company, Xu Jinyu received an invitation from Princess Rongyang. After hesitating several times, he wrote a reply by himself.
According to the original plan, he should leave at noon today to negotiate a deal.
Knowing that Xu Jinyu would stay in Beijing for a day, a shopkeeper hired by Xu Jinyu came over to persuade him: "Master, the road conditions over there are not good, and the only one who dares to take that waterway in this season is the Yin family's boat. If you If I don’t leave today, I’m afraid I won’t be able to make it in time.”
"If you can't make it, you can't make it. I can still afford to pay for this business." Xu Jinyu waved the shopkeeper back out.
Xu Jinyu looked at the invitation card in his hand and laughed at himself. He thought he could hold everything firmly in his hands, but unexpectedly, he fell down in the end.
But it's not a big deal, he just took it as a presumptuous one today. From now on, he will never set foot in the boundary of the capital.
Princess Rongyang was very happy after receiving Xu Jinyu's reply. She specially asked Chunxia to bring her new spring shirt, and sat in front of the mirror trying on her makeup and hair all afternoon.
Chu Yan and Su Yan brought Zhong Ning with them when they went out. Zhong Ning and Xia Mochu were in the same group, and they knew nothing else. They were proficient in eating, drinking and having fun. There was no dinner party that was not lively with Zhong Ning.
Ningyang Tower is the best restaurant in the capital, and it has been taken over by Princess Rongyang. When Su Yan and the others arrived, Princess Rongyang and Xu Jinyu were talking at the door. It seemed that these two people had just arrived, and they were standing at the door talking, but there was a distance of several people between them.
Seeing Su Yan and the others arrived, Xu Jinyu greeted them with a sigh of relief, and greeted them one by one: "My son, my concubine, Miss Zhong."
Princess Rongyang also came over with Xu Jinyu, took Su Yan's hand and said, "Why didn't you wear more? You are a double body now, so you can't catch cold."
Seeing Princess Rongyang, Su Yan's eyes lit up: "Why are you dressed so beautifully today?"
Princess Rongyang is wearing a bright red chest-length skirt, a set of red gold filigree embellished with pearls on her head, exquisite makeup, and bright red lip balm on her lips, showing her popularity The complexion is very good, and the skin is also very white. It is the first time for Su Yan to see Princess Rongyang dressed so meticulously.
"Is there?" Hearing Su Yan's praise, Princess Rongyang was overjoyed. She pretended to glance at Xu Jinyu inadvertently. Xu Jinyu and Chu Yan were talking at the side, and they didn't look at her at all.
Princess Rongyang supported the hairpin on her head, feeling a little disappointed.
Zhong Ning looked at Princess Rongyang wearing a spring shirt, and tightened her thin jacket: "My mother, don't you feel cold in this light? All right, don't stand stupidly at the door, you don't mind cold."
Princess Rongyang is the host today, she slightly nodded to Xu Jinyu: "Boss Xu, please."
"Princess, please first." Xu Jinyu was very gentlemanly, and she and Princess Rongyang only looked at each other for a moment before looking away, very polite.
Princess Rongyang led the way, and went straight into the box that had been arranged before.
Xu Jinyu had invited them to dinner, and Princess Rongyang probably figured out Xu Jinyu's preferences. She knew that Xu Jinyu didn't like waste, so she only used a small box with eight dishes and two soups on the table.
The food in the private room has been served, Princess Rongyang said with a smile: "I don't know what Boss Xu likes to eat. I heard that your hometown is from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, so I specially called you to be the master of Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine. I don't know if it suits you. taste."
"Princess Lao, don't worry." Xu Jinyu had a gentle smile on his face, and Princess Rongyang couldn't tell that he was dissatisfied.
Pursing her lips, Princess Rongyang helped Su Yan to sit down first.
Su Yan is now pregnant, so it can be regarded as a key animal protection.
Chu Yan and Xu Jinyu are next to each other, Su Yan sits next to Chu Yan, Princess Rongyang sits next to Su Yan, followed by Zhong Ning, in this way, Zhong Ning and Xu Jinyu are next to each other, but Zhong Ning is right about this It doesn't matter.
During the dinner, Zhong Ning kept toasting Xu Jinyu, as if trying to knock him down.
It's a pity that this girl Zhong Ning can't drink as much as others, and when Xu Jinyu is still not doing well, Zhong Ning gets drunk first, and Xu Jinyu is arguing to become brothers with him, still shouting that there are blessings and sufferings That cliché.
Chu Yan felt that Zhong Ning's move was a little too much, so he deliberately asked Princess Rongyang to switch places with her, so that Princess Rongyang happened to be right next to Xu Jinyu.
After changing positions, Zhong Ning drank two more glasses of wine, and soon fell asleep lying on the table with Su Yan's "help".
When Princess Rongyang and Zhong Ning changed positions, perhaps out of politeness, Xu Jinyu deliberately pulled her chair a little in the direction of Chu Yan. Some are uncomfortable.
Obviously Zhong Ning and him were so close just now, but if it was her...
She looked down at the honey water in her cup, and pursed her lips with red lipstick. In fact, Princess Rongyang couldn't tell why she called him out today. She knew that she liked him. But she... didn't know what to do to let him know what she wanted.
After thinking about it, Princess Rongyang took a cup and poured a glass of wine, stood up and said to Xu Jinyu, "This time, I would like to thank Boss Xu for your help. I respect you for this glass of wine."
While speaking, Princess Rongyang cautiously probed, but Xu Jinyu's attitude was still very polite, and she also stood up and took the wine glass: "It's a small effort, don't worry about it."
Princess Rongyang raised her head to look into his eyes while drinking, only to find that he was also drinking with his head up, until he put down the glass, and he never made any eye contact with her.
He... probably really doesn't have any feelings for her.
Princess Rongyang couldn't help but feel disappointed. After toasting this glass of wine, she didn't say much. She was listening to Chu Yan and Xu Jinyu's conversation quietly, while she was a little absent-minded, chatting with Su Yan in a low voice. chatting.
During this period, she secretly looked at Xu Jinyu several times, but found that Xu Jinyu had never looked at her.
In addition to being disappointed, Princess Rongyang felt a little sour.
At this moment, Zhong Ning suddenly yelled, "Senior Sister, I want to clean the room."
"Cai Xia, help her up."
Princess Rongyang said, "I'll go with her."
When Xu Jinyu toasted Chu Yan, she pretended to glance in the direction of the aisle inadvertently, looking at the beautiful figure, Xu Jinyu forced herself to look away, and continued to say this to Chu Yan as if nothing had happened.
When Zhong Ning came out of Gong's room to wash her hands, Princess Rongyang hesitated for a long time before approaching Zhong Ning and asked in a low voice: "Ning'er, I have a question to ask you."
"What's wrong?" Zhong Ning was so drunk that she hiccupped after speaking.
Princess Rongyang pursed her lips, sent all the maids out, and then whispered to Zhong Ning: "I have someone I like, but I don't know if he likes me or not. What do you think I should do?"
