Tang Ke was a little nervous. For this banquet, Xinya specially added new clothes for him and conveyed enough attention.
On the one hand, Tang Ke's nervousness was due to the school. Although it was only a glimpse, the head of the Han family had left a deep impression on him. He was a very strong, fierce and fearsome man.
On the other hand, Tang Ke couldn't help but think of that angel-like young lady. She seemed to be mentally overdrawn that day, her face was snow-white, and it was worrying. I wonder if she got better later.
Xinya took Tang Ke's hand and handed over the invitation. On the chip of the invitation card, there was a mental mark made by the head of the Han family. After scanning, it passed, and the waiter politely extended his hand to invite them in.
Xinya was also a little nervous. It has been a long time since she attended an occasion like the Han family.
When I was little, my mother was very enthusiastic. Whenever there is a banquet in the Han family, she can always get invitations, and then lead Xinya there dressed up. Until one day, she found that Xinya's eyes had been chasing a young man, and her face changed greatly.
That time, before the banquet was over, my mother took her home.
"He can't! Only he can't!" Mom warned her sternly, "stay away from him!"
Of course she knew that he couldn't, but she was only sixteen years old at that time, and it was really sad to have to face this reality soberly. But compared to later, those sad things are nothing, because there are always more sad things waiting for you in life.
When she was 20 years old, on a large terrace in this manor, the young man held her wrist and said, "I can support you for a lifetime."
Since the year she was awakened by her mother, she has been deliberately alienated, just watching him from a distance, never daring to approach him. That night, she finally confirmed that he also liked her.
But that night was his engagement party.
So sad, really sad. If he didn't know he liked her, he probably wouldn't be so sad.
It's time to wake up from the dream of a girl, from this day on, be a real adult.
She withdrew her hand, and with her best manners, rejected him coldly and politely, then turned and left. After that, they no longer meet.
She put those girly things in the bottom of the memory box and collected them, and then lived a down-to-earth life. Meet the right person, fall in love, get married, have children. I thought life would be so peaceful and happy. Who would have guessed that her parents died in a car accident, and then her husband was in an accident. She ran around, and the family, which was considered affluent, was dragged down within a few years.
Finally, she dressed herself up again and stood at the gate of the manor. The state of mind is not what it used to be.
Stepping into the banquet hall, you will enter a long-lost glorious world. The clothes are fragrant and the temples are shadowed, and the jewels are shining.
Xinya stroked the skirt subconsciously. She hasn't bought any new clothes in the past two years, let alone a dress that can only be worn on such special occasions. This dress is old, she has worn it before, will it be found
But Xinya immediately laughed at herself. On this occasion, she was insignificant, who would care about her
She calmed down, held Tang Ke's hand, and walked into the crowd to find relatives in her room. Occasionally encounter other people with the surname Han who are familiar, most of whom have dealt with when they were young, and also went to socialize. She has dressed up with care today. Although she has no expensive jewelry on her body and looks a little shabby, few people would reject a beautiful woman. Her communication was relatively smooth, and she faintly regained the feeling of wandering around in this kind of situation when she was young.
It's just that the person she wanted to see never showed up. Although she pretended to be calm, she couldn't help but look around.
This banquet hall is high and empty, and the gorgeous crystal lamps hang from the ceiling, shining brightly.
Behind the corridor railing on the third floor, the head of the Han family looked down from a height, and could clearly see Xinya's slender back walking in the crowd.
The long dress complemented her slender waist and was very beautiful. But he remembered seeing that dress. When the fourth grandfather had his birthday a few years ago, he had glimpsed her from a distance. At that time, she had not given birth to a child, her parents were still alive, holding her husband's arm, and her face was full of happiness.
Almost ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and her family is in a downturn, with her children alone. When they were young, those who were arrogant and arrogant were all sharpened by life, and they would also bow their heads and go to socialize with a soft body.
reduced to Sri Lanka.
"Father." Han Yanyan came over, "It's almost time."
The man nodded and turned to leave. Han Yanyan glanced at Tang Ke and Xinya in the crowd and turned around.
The banquet hall became quiet, and the guests turned to the stairs. As the band played softly, Han Yanyan took his father's arm and walked down the stairs slowly.
Standing on the step platform, the head of the Han family gave a short speech, and succinctly explained that the purpose of the banquet was to celebrate the upgrade of Han Yanyan's spiritual power to the S-level. I hope that all relatives and friends can relax and have fun.
When the father and daughter walked down the last three steps, the banquet officially began.
The purpose of Xinya's trip was to interview the head of the Han family, but too many people flocked to him and surrounded him, and there was no chance for her to come forward.
Xinya was a little anxious, she thought about it, took Tang Ke to a place with seats, brought him some juice snacks, and told him not to run around. She herself went to find the people in the fourth master's room.
She hadn't been in contact with that cousin for too long, and she was too unfamiliar. She wanted to see if she could find someone to introduce her.
Such family gatherings are mostly about reminiscing about the past, asking for warmth, and visiting relatives. Because of their blood ties, they are more relaxed and enthusiastic than socializing with the outside world. Xinya turned around, and some of the familiar relatives she had just met didn't know where they were, and some were chatting happily with others, so it was difficult to interrupt.
Xinya was at a loss when a servant in uniform came over and asked, "Is this Miss Lin Xinya?"
He said, "The master invites you to the study."
The invitation sent by the man made Xinya a little stunned. She hesitated for a while, followed the footman and quietly left the banquet hall and came to the study.
Tang Ke finished his snacks and drank two glasses of juice in a row. He felt a little anxious to urinate. He asked the waiter for the location of the bathroom, and went to the toilet by himself. When I came back, I stood at the entrance of the banquet hall and looked around, but I didn't see Xinya. There are a lot of A-level B-level mental power users, and a few A and S-level people. It is impolite to use mental power to search in this situation. He can only rely on his eyes.
After searching for a while, he couldn't find it, and he guessed that she must have gone to work. He knew very well that his mother brought him into contact with the Han family for his schooling and future development. She asked the cousin uncle to help a lot.
She didn't say it, but Tang Ke could feel that this "beg" embarrassed her. But she still went for him.
Tang Ke has been following his mother for the past few years, running between home and the hospital, and he has never attended such a grand banquet in his memory. His mother has been busy in recent years and neglected to teach him social skills in this area. Although it's not ashamed or rude, I always feel that I am out of tune with this place.
He stepped back quietly, looking for a quiet place.
Walking around in this mansion, I found that it is like a labyrinth with a complicated structure. He walked for a while, felt that it was not good to go deeper, turned around and walked back.
"Hey, you." He heard someone call, turned around, and saw Miss Angel.
The dress on Miss Sister's body was so exquisite that it seemed to glow. She bent over, touched his head and asked, "Whose child are you? I haven't seen you."
Tang Ke was between the age of a child and a teenager at this time, but he was much more sensitive than children of the same age due to family circumstances. Being treated by Han Yanyan as a child, his face instantly flushed red.
"I..." He panicked, remembering the genealogy that his mother taught him, and hurriedly said, "My great-grandmother was the great-aunt of the Fourth Master's family. My name is Tang Ke, and I came with my mother."
This kinship made Han Yanyan couldn't help twitching at the corner of her mouth.
"Oh, in this way, you are my cousin." Han Yanyan smiled, "Hello brother Xiaoke, I am your cousin Han Yanyan."
Han Yanyan treated him as tenderly as the previous round, and quickly gained Tang Ke's trust. The two found a stairway and sat on the steps to talk for a while.
"Dongchen? I'm in Dongchen, everyone is in Dongchen." Han Yanyan said, "There are many brothers and sisters who live here, who go to school with me, Xiaoke, too."
She touched his head and said, "Dongchen is the best academy with the best teachers and the strongest mecha equipment. If you want to be an excellent mecha, you must come to Dongchen."
If I go to Dongchen, can I go to school with my little cousin? Tang Ke yearned for it, but he knew that if he wanted to go to Dongchen, he would have to rely on his mother to beg the cousin.
"Don't worry," said the beautiful cousin, "I'll tell Daddy, wrap it around me."
Cousin is not only beautiful but also kind, how can there be such a beautiful person in the world? She is really an angel, Tang Ke thought.
"Cousin." Xinya entered the study, saw the broad back, and called out softly.
-Thank you cousin for your love, but I want to live an upright life, I have no intention of being someone else's lover, and I don't need to be burdened by you in my life.
Since then, how many years has she never walked in front of him and called him "cousin"
Patriarch Han stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, turned around and looked at Xinya. In a daze, she seemed to be the girl of the past.
At first, it was a cute little girl like Yuxue like a little rabbit, wearing a fluffy skirt, getting lost in the courtyard, crying while walking. He was a juvenile young man who thought it was funny and cute.
With such good looks, she will be a beauty in the future, he thought.
As a distant relative, she doesn't have many chances to appear in front of him. Every time she appears, she grows up.
From delicate dolls to Pingting girls. Time and again, amazing time.
Now, the little rabbit from the past is back, and the years have sharpened her eyebrows. Her edges and corners are gone, and she returns to him obediently.
"Xinya? Long time no see." He said.
He stepped away and walked towards her.
Every step made Xinya's heart skip a beat.
