In an instant, everyone sitting at the dining table turned their heads in the direction of the sound. The person who said this was none other than Shao Jun, the man sitting opposite Wen Xiangqing.
Xu Nianyi who was sitting next to Shao Jun was dumbfounded on the spot. God, does he know what he just said
And after Shao Jun finished saying that, he didn't even look at his father, but raised his eyes to Xu Nianyi who was sitting beside him, slightly raised his pink lips, and asked with a low smile Said: "Do you think this is the truth?"
From his fluttering lips, he spoke a calm tone, his tone was obviously gentle, but the meaning in his words was extremely sharp, and he didn't give his father any face at all!
Xu Nianyi looked at Shao Jun's handsome face in embarrassment, and was extremely amazed in his heart: Shao Jun, you are really good at bringing the topic to me.
If she nods now, say 'yes'. She was afraid that she would really die and leave City C. You know, for a powerful family like the Yan family with a very deep background, it is very easy for a person to disappear from this world.
They are all noble people, so naturally they will not let their hands get blood. They don't even need to give orders themselves, there will be rushing to do these things for them.
She also knows a thing or two about some dark inside stories in this celebrity circle.
After hesitating for a while, she pursed the corners of her lips, showing a shy and gentle smile: "Shao Jun, you are naughty again, how can you talk like that to uncle."
"It's too serious to see everyone eating, so I made a joke to ease the atmosphere." Shao Jun said it very easily, the corners of his mouth deepened a lot, and his obsidian-like eyes gazed affectionately at Xu Nianyi. "Fool, look at how nervous you are. Don't worry, I only like you."
He spoke not loudly, but enough for everyone present to hear.
"Don't be like this, we're still having dinner together." Meeting his affectionate eyes, Xu Nianyi's cheeks turned hot, and he lowered his head pretending to be shy. But in fact, he was terrified.
In front of so many members of the Yan family, Shao Jun was too close to him.
Especially in front of Wen Xiangqing, this kind of intimacy can easily make her a target of public criticism.
"Okay. Eat first."
Shao Jun listened to her very much, smiled and looked away, looking at the serious Qing who was sitting at the end of the dining table, wearing a gray Chinese tunic suit.
He looked at the solemn and clear eyes calmly and coldly, just like his childhood eyes, there seemed to be a desert in his eyes, when he looked at his father without any emotion, there was only a boundless black desolation.
Of course Xu Nianyi also noticed Shao Jun's eyes, and his heartstrings immediately tensed.
She could see that this was not the look a son should have for his father.
But she didn't understand why Shao Jun had such a relationship with his father? It's rare to go home once, but when they meet, they are so tense. And until now, Shao Jun didn't tell her why he changed his surname
When we were in school together, his name was clearly "Stern". But I haven't seen him for ten years, and when I see him again, he has changed his surname to 'Shao'.
Why did you change your last name? What is the conflict between him and his father
The atmosphere at this family gathering was clearly not normal. If Shao Jun had conflicts with his father, why did he treat his mother so strangely
What secret is the Yan family hiding
Numerous questions flashed through Xu Nianyi's mind, and he took a sneak peek at Shao Jun cautiously.
She just followed Shao Jun back to Yan's house. She didn't know what the situation in the Yan family's old house was like, and she didn't dare to draw conclusions easily. I can only pretend that I don't know anything, and cooperate with Shao Jun to play the role of a gentle girlfriend.
"Father, I think you must know that some things cannot be forced. Especially emotional things. I think you know this truth best, don't you?"
Just when Xu Nianyi was full of doubts, Shao Jun's voice sounded again.
Hearing Shao Jun's answer, the solemn Qing who was sitting on the main seat said with a blank expression: "You have to know that Ah Qing is a good girl, and she also grew up with you..."
"Yes, but so what?"
However, Serious Qing hadn't finished speaking yet. Shao Jun interrupted him mercilessly: "Ah Qing is indeed very good, but I just regard her as a friend. I already have someone I like, and Nian Yi is now my girlfriend. I will hold an engagement wedding in Xiahai City in a few months, and the decision I made will not be changed easily. Save your energy for such a messy affair."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
The people sitting on both sides of the dining table changed their expressions and looked at Shao Jun in surprise. They all seemed extremely surprised by Shao Jun's answer.
"Grand, you haven't been home for half a year, are you going to talk to me with this attitude when you come back?" The serious face immediately sank, Fangzheng's face with Chinese characters was emotionless, and the lines on his face were tense , seemed to be suppressing something, and his voice was much lower than before.
"I haven't been home for half a year. When I get home, are you going to order me in that tone of admonishing non-commissioned officers?" Shao Jun looked at the serious person at the end of the table without fear, and the smile on his lips faded slightly. , said in a calm voice, "You are used to being the commander-in-chief in the military region, but don't forget, I am not your non-commissioned officer."
"You..." The serious and clear face instantly became extremely ugly, and a pair of tiger eyes looked at Shao Jun fiercely, almost slapping his palm on the table.
He is the commander-in-chief of the third military region, who manages a group army with tens of thousands of people, how many generals and majors in his hands, which one dares to talk to him like that
"It's rare for Ah Jun to go home once. Why do you two always argue when you meet?" Ji Zhen, who was sitting next to Serious Qing, immediately raised a smile, looked at Shao Jun amiably, and persuaded softly, "Ah Jun, it's rare for the family to get together, and Shaokai is watching here, let's eat first. The master is just talking casually, don't take it to heart."
"I won't take it to heart. No one can change what I did. So I will pretend that I didn't hear what I just said." Shao Junjun raised his eyebrows, and his eyes fell on Ji Zhen's smiling face. The tone of the speech was not very respectful, "You and my father are both experienced, and they must know that twisted melons are not sweet. I don't need to tell you about the things in the past."
"..." The smile on Ji Zhen's face seemed to have been frosted, and the smile instantly froze at the corner of her mouth.
"Brother..."
Yan Kuan, who had remained silent from the beginning to the end, suddenly spoke. He looked straight at Shao Jun with dewy eyes, and spoke in a respectful and modest manner, "Let the past pass. In fact, my father has no other words." I mean, I just saw that Sister Ah Qing rushed back this time. It is true that our family has not gathered for dinner for a long time, so let’s eat first. Grandpa is still waiting for us to go there in Zizhuyuan. Yesterday’s birthday banquet was too rushed, grandpa must have There are still many things I want to tell you."
Hearing Yan Kuan mentioning grandpa, the sharpness in Shao Jun's eyes subsided, and his usual gentle and calm smile returned to his face: "Alright, I'll take Nian to visit grandpa later. It's time for grandpa to meet his future granddaughter-in-law."
"Haha, yes, you have now remembered, and I was just about to remind you." Wei Shaokai also hurriedly smiled in agreement, and then heaved a long sigh of relief.
The atmosphere at the dining table just now was extremely tense, and it seemed that swords were about to explode. But in the blink of an eye, everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
Ji Zhen's smile reappeared on her face, and she gently raised her jade hand with the mutton fat jade bracelet, signaling the maids to tear down the main meal and replace it with dessert.
The serious and clear face looked better than before.
During the dinner, only Wen Xiangqing's face was covered with cloudy clouds, her already pale cheeks turned out to be slightly blue at this moment, the softness in her eyes had long since disappeared, and her beautiful eyes were half-closed, making it hard for people to see the emotion in her eyes clearly.
Grandson daughter-in-law.
This title should have belonged to her.
But now, it has become Xu Nianyi's title.
She traveled thousands of miles, regardless of her physical condition, just to come back to see Shao Jun on the day of the old man's birthday. I just want to give Shao Jun a surprise. Unexpectedly, Shao Jun gave her an even bigger "surprise".
She has known him since he was wearing crotch pants, and she is the one who understands his thoughts and difficulties best. But in the end, his choice was not her.
For so many years, he has not found a girlfriend.
As a young and promising outstanding entrepreneur, he did not rely on the strength of the Yan family, but only relied on his own strength to create a world of his own in China and gained the highest status, but he rarely even had scandals.
It made her admire.
Not only admire his mind, but also appreciate his self-cleaning. She thought he was at least waiting for herself.
But in the end, such an ordinary woman suddenly appeared beside him.
If he had to find out something different, he could only say that the woman beside him was too special. A woman who had been in prison turned out to be his girlfriend...
Wen Xiangqing unconsciously squeezed the tea cup tightly in her hand, so hard that her knuckles turned white.
Luo Yuanyuan, who was next to her, noticed her abnormality, lowered her voice, and asked doubtfully, "Sister Ah Qing, are you feeling unwell?"
"It doesn't matter." Wen Xiangqing immediately turned her head away, with a weak smile on her pale face, "I woke up too early in the morning and didn't have a good rest. I'll just go back and take a nap later."
"Well, you must take good care of yourself." Luo Yuanyuan looked at Wen Xiangqing with concern, and whispered, "Sister Ah Qing, don't worry too much, the woman my cousin brought is nothing compared to you. That woman is better than you." It’s not as good as a third-rate wild model. Cousin will definitely not marry her.”
"Yuanyuan, it's okay, I'm not sad because of this. No matter what choice Ah Jun makes, I won't be angry with him." Wen Xiangqing smiled extraordinarily gently, and the gloom in his eyes gradually faded away.
The dinner party returned to calm, and Ji Zhen, as the head of the house, greeted everyone politely and warmly.
But Xu Nianyi knew that this calmness was only a superficial phenomenon...
Sure enough, after the dinner party, when she went out to answer the phone, Yan Kuan blocked the door on the first floor.
"Well, do you have anything to do with me?"
Looking at the gentle man in front of him, Xu Nianyi remembered the misunderstanding in the morning, and showed a slightly embarrassed smile.
