The banquet held in Pei Lixin's villa was indeed a small one.
There were only three tables set up in the hall on the first floor. After all the guests arrived, the maids began to serve the dishes one after another. Quite a bit of a family feast.
"I don't know what dishes my wife likes to eat, so I prepared a few more dishes according to the tastes of different places." Pei Lixin asked: "What do you think, my wife?"
Gu Xueyi calmly took this scene into her eyes.
Use this way to show your respect and closeness, and try to win her over. ... Such methods are too common to be worth mentioning.
Gu Xueyi said lightly: "It's just so-so."
Pei Lixin scolded twice again from the bottom of her heart, without changing her smile: "Madam, please take a seat first. If there are any deficiencies, Madam should bring them up, and we will correct them next time."
Only then did Gu Xueyi give her face and took the main seat.
Pei Lixin immediately sat beside her, and arranged for Pei Zhikang to sit beside her.
Chen Yujin naturally took a seat next to Gu Xueyi's other side.
After the honored guests sat down with the host, the others followed suit.
Pei Lixin raised her glass high: "It's an honor for the Pei family to have my wife come to Zhikang's birthday party today. Let's toast together and toast to my wife..."
Gu Xueyi didn't move.
The atmosphere suddenly cooled down.
Ever since Pei Lixin became the person in charge of Baoxin, she had never been humiliated like this.
Her hands froze in mid-air: "Ma'am?"
Gu Xueyi asked: "Where are the Yanxun Chinese?"
Pei Lixin's hands in mid-air became even stiffer.
Yan Chao didn't dare to call this uncle's name directly, but Gu Xueyi called him directly
In Gu Xueyi's eyes, I'm afraid they didn't take them as elders seriously at all!
But thinking of the next plan, Pei Lixin swallowed her anger again, and said with a smile: "You said the old banquet, he is not here now..."
"Then where is he?" Gu Xueyi said displeased: "You invited me to come, but even the owner is not at home. Are you deliberately neglecting me? Because the banquet is not here?"
Pei Lixin didn't want to be labeled as such.
She hurriedly said: "It's not that I'm being negligent, it's that Lao Yan can't come back in time."
Gu Xueyi's slender fingers pinched the chopsticks, she tilted her head slightly, and her tone was unintelligible for a moment: "Oh, that means she is abroad."
Pei Lixin choked suddenly.
"Why is he abroad? Lao Yan is not in good health. He is either in the hospital or relaxing in various places in the country all year round. I haven't contacted him for a while. Well, let's not talk about him... I asked someone to prepare a gift for my wife. "
When Pei Lixin said this, she still felt a little heartache.
She was not from a wealthy family, on the contrary, when she was young, her family was very poor.
But this time, in order to win over Gu Xueyi, she specially asked Pei Zhikang to go to the auction, and won a piece of pigeon blood ruby, worth more than five million.
She knew that Gu Xueyi liked these things, and only by being ruthless could she get more benefits.
After Pei Lixin finished speaking, Pei Zhikang immediately got up cooperatively and went to fetch a box.
He took the initiative to walk to Gu Xueyi's side, bowed slightly, and opened the lid of the box: "Madam, take a look, do you like it?"
"There's also Mr. Chen's." Pei Lixin didn't want to reveal her purpose so quickly, so she also prepared Chen Yujin's role.
A watch was prepared for Chen Yujin.
Chen Yujin smiled, but her tone was cold: "I don't need it."
On this end, Gu Xueyi stretched out her fingers, and gently fiddled with the pigeon blood ruby.
Pei Zhikang stared at her light-white fingers, which were indescribably beautiful when they were paired with the blood-red gemstone, and he was stunned for a moment.
"I like this thing." Gu Xueyi said, smiling.
Since she entered the door, she has always been arrogant and cold, picky about everything, and has no false words to anyone. But it was also because of this that at this moment, her smile was even more rare.
Pei Lixin breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she had pinpointed Gu Xueyi's pulse.
Coax people!
Pei Zhikang stared at Gu Xueyi intently, and said, "As long as my wife likes it."
Chen Yujin clenched the wine glass tightly with his fingers, without changing the smile on his face, he raised his eyes and glanced at Gu Xueyi.
She did smile very seldom.
The most common expression on her face is a faint...
Gu Xueyi let go, and the atmosphere at the table changed immediately. Everyone toasted again, and it became lively after a while.
But after drinking this glass of wine, Gu Xueyi returned to her haughty look, and when Pei Lixin said three words to her, she only responded with one sentence.
When she is unhappy, she still has to say something to Pei Lixin.
After Pei Lixin ate a meal, she was full of anger. Thanks to her years of hard work in society and her deep knowledge of how to change her face, she didn't lose her expression.
Pei Lixin kept comforting herself from the bottom of her heart.
The more this is the case, the more it means that the smile just now is sincere
Doesn't it mean that Gu Xueyi's eyelids are shallow, as long as she is given benefits, she will be tempted
Finally finished a meal.
Pei Lixin knocked over the wine glass on purpose.
"Ah! Ma'am... Didn't you stain Madam's clothes?" Pei Lixin hurriedly stood up, and pulled a few paper towels to wipe for Gu Xueyi.
Gu Xueyi sighed softly in her heart.
She also thought that Pei Lixin had so much power, these tricks in front of her really seemed to be playing tricks.
Gu Xueyi got angry, stood up, and said coldly, "What are you doing?"
In an instant, Pei Lixin felt overwhelmed by the coldness.
But when he came back to his senses, that illusion disappeared again.
Pei Lixin hurriedly took care of her: "Ma'am, don't be angry, Ma'am will go upstairs with me to deal with it first, so as not to get wet and uncomfortable."
With anger on her face, Gu Xueyi got up and walked upstairs stepping on her high heels.
At the farthest table, the friends brought by Pei Zhikang couldn't help but be speechless: "The wife is angry at this banquet, it's all because of the good-looking."
Pei Zhikang thought so too.
Beauty with pink face and angry face is extremely beautiful.
Only Chen Yujin lowered his head and took a sip of hot tea.
My wife's acting skills are getting better and better.
At first, he thought she was unreasonable, vain, and mean. Later, he thought she was dignified and elegant, with sparse eyebrows and eyes, calmly... Now, it's a little hard to see her clearly.
She is not rigid at all, she knows how to be flexible, she can show others the side she wants to show...
Chen Yujin lowered her head and took another sip of her hot tea.
And he... so much alike.
Gu Xueyi walked up to the second floor.
Pei Lixin chased after her: "Madam, this way please."
I'm afraid that Gu Xueyi broke into the wrong room.
After entering the room, Pei Lixin brought out a brand new set of clothes for Gu Xueyi to change into.
Gu Xueyi didn't like this at all.
She dragged a chair casually and sat on it.
"Bring me a basin of water, and clean it up a little bit. Then use a hair dryer to dry it." Gu Xueyi said lightly.
She bent one leg slightly, and pushed the other forward on the carpet.
Her posture was elegant and extremely proud, as if she was using Pei Lixin as a servant girl.
Pei Lixin: ...
She gritted her teeth: "Okay, I'll call a maid to come up."
This Gu Xueyi has a lot of eccentricities.
"You knocked over the wine glass, what did you call someone else to do?" Gu Xueyi raised her eyelids, with a little contempt in her eyes: "Boss Pei is so irresponsible?"
I'm Uncle Yanchao's wife!
That is your uncle!
These words only passed through Pei Lixin's mind once.
Probably because she has been treated coldly by Gu Xueyi this day, Pei Lixin thought about it and endured it before, but now that she has a falling out, her previous thoughts will be in vain.
Especially that ruby!
Pei Lixin turned her head to fetch water, and then went to get a hair dryer.
I really just washed off the stain on Gu Xueyi's coat little by little, and then held the hair dryer and squatted in front of Gu Xueyi to dry her.
Gu Xueyi went upstairs and didn't see her again, Chen Yujin frowned indistinctly.
Although he now believes that Gu Xueyi is smart enough, but with Baoxin involved, Pei Lixin is likely to become a lunatic and do reckless things...
Chen Yujin said: "Why haven't you come down yet?"
Pei Zhikang was also a little puzzled.
It doesn't take that long to talk.
"I'll go and have a look." Pei Zhikang stood up after speaking.
Chen Yujin knew rationally that at this time, Gu Xueyi should be given a chance to be alone with them, so that they would reveal their true purpose.
But he still stood up and said calmly: "I'll go upstairs to have a look too. If something happens to Madam, I won't be able to explain it to Mr. Yan."
Pei Zhikang felt contemptuous.
Banquet dog.
Pei Zhikang responded with a smile on his face: "Okay."
Fortunately, his sister had already guessed that Chen Yujin would keep a close eye on Gu Xueyi.
The tighter Chen Yujin stares, the more they want to win over Gu Xueyi.
The two walked upstairs one after the other.
Soon, they came to the door.
"Sister?" Pei Zhikang called out.
But his voice was covered by the sound of the hair dryer, Pei Lixin didn't hear it at all, and holding her breath, she continued to blow clothes for Gu Xueyi.
Pei Zhikang had no choice but to enter the door one after the other with Chen Yujin.
Then they saw the scene in the house—
Gu Xueyi seemed to be a spoiled young lady from birth, she raised her eyes indifferently and arrogantly, her charm was compelling.
In front of her, Pei Lixin was really not worth mentioning.
Even Pei Zhikang saw it, his first reaction was not to feel sorry for his sister, but...
Mrs. Yan is really pretty.
That's how it should be served.
Chen Yujin paused, a bit dumbfounded.
So it's here to train Pei Lixin so much. That's all she could figure out.
Only then did Gu Xueyi move her legs.
Pei Lixin thought she was going to kick herself, so she quickly turned off the hair dryer and hid to the side.
Gu Xueyi has a bad temper, so it's not surprising that she did this.
"What did you come here for?" Gu Xueyi looked forward and asked.
Pei Lixin looked back and saw that Chen Yujin and Pei Zhikang were standing there.
Were they all seen
Pei Lixin's expression couldn't hold back anymore, a crack opened.
She has never lost such a big ugliness!
"Well, I'm worried about my wife, come and have a look." Chen Yujin said without any concealment.
Chen Yujin was so straightforward, Pei Lixin actually let down her guard.
Pei Lixin opened her mouth and was about to say something.
Gu Xueyi spoke first: "Okay, go down and wait."
Chen Yujin took another deep look at her before responding: "... yes."
Seeing that Chen Yujin had to be angry with Gu Xueyi, Pei Lixin felt a little better. She immediately sent Pei Zhikang away as well.
back again-
Gu Xueyi stood up and tugged at her coat: "Let's just force it like this."
Pei Lixin forced a smile: "I'm really sorry today..." "I'll make amends to my wife some other day."
"How to pay?"
"Of course I will pay for things my wife likes."
"Do you know what I like?" Gu Xueyi squinted at her.
"Didn't my wife like the gem just now?"
"Yes. I have a sapphire there... I'm a bit of a collector. I hope that the gemstones in my hand can have seven colors."
Pei Lixin: ...
So, she still has to gather seven gemstones of different colors for Gu Xueyi
"I also like jade." Gu Xueyi paused, and said lightly: "For example, Hetian jade with red skin and white flesh seeds, I also like jadeite with violet and lotus root powder."
Pei Lixin's brows twitched when she heard this, she wished she could shut Gu Xueyi's mouth.
Others hinted implicitly, but she said it generously.
"These... wife likes all of them?"
"Don't you have long ears?" Gu Xueyi looked back at her, and asked indifferently: "Didn't I just say that this is what I like. Aren't you going to make an apology? Just use these."
"Yes... But these things may not be available. After all, they are very precious."
Gu Xueyi stared at her.
Pei Lixin immediately felt a little condescending.
"You can't even get this?" Gu Xueyi said.
Pei Lixin's chest was blocked: "Of course...it will take a while, but it can be done."
She is the person in charge of Baoxin, holding Baoxin's financial power in her hands. But what she hates the most when going out is that others only regard her as a senior executive of a subsidiary of Yan's.
She also hates others to question her status and ability the most.
"Well, let's start with these."
"These first?!"
"Baoxin is a subsidiary of Yan's, and you are the one who said you would make amends to me... What tone are you talking about?" Gu Xueyi asked unhurriedly.
"No, you misunderstood." Pei Lixin said eagerly.
"Ever since I met you that day, I really wanted to make friends with my wife, so I invited my wife to a family banquet today. Madam... I haven't heard from Mr. Yan for a long time. Has Madam thought about what to do in the future?" Pei Lixin finally said What I want to say most today.
Gu Xueyi paused for a few seconds before saying: "Take his inheritance to raise..."
The word "male pet" came to the lips, and it was changed to "little boy".
The corners of Pei Lixin's mouth twitched.
She said, with Gu Xueyi's performance of admiring vanity, how could it be a feast of true love
Fortunately, she loves vanity.
"But Mr. Chen won't allow it..." Pei Lixin said softly, "Mr. Yan still has a few younger brothers and sisters. They will share property with his wife in the future."
"What do you mean?"
"Why don't I advise my wife..."
…
Another ten minutes passed before Gu Xueyi went downstairs.
She frowned slightly: "Today is too unlucky, let's go back first."
Chen Yujin immediately followed.
Pei Lixin went downstairs at the back.
Pei Zhikang first glanced at Gu Xueyi's direction, then greeted Pei Lixin, and asked, "Sister, how are you doing?"
Pei Lixin seemed to have shed a layer of skin.
She cheered up: "Gu Xueyi is too greedy... But because of greed, it didn't take much effort to convince her."
Pei Zhikang laughed: "Then Mrs. Yan is now in our camp?"
"Forget it. But we still have to be careful first." Pei Lixin said, and weakly took out a card to Pei Zhikang: "I heard that there will be an auction in Jiangshi three days later, you go to take pictures..."
Gu Xueyi and Chen Yujin got into the car.
Chen Yujin asked, "How is it?"
"Yan Chao... is living well." Gu Xueyi raised her eyebrows lightly and said.
Chen Yujin was surprised: "How does Madam know that Mr. Yan is still alive?"
"Pei Lixin's words are all hints, saying that Yan Chao is still alive and will come back. If I want to get Yan Chao's inheritance, I'd better cooperate with them and prevent Yan Chao from coming back."
Gu Xueyi paused for a moment: "If I own enough shares of the Yan family and grasp the inheritance of the Yan Dynasty, no one will be able to pursue Baoxin's matter anymore."
Gu Xueyi closed her eyes and leaned against the backrest to take a nap.
She said lightly: "Secretary Chen might as well check to see if Yan Xunhua has anything to do with Yan Chao's disappearance. Otherwise... how would Pei Lixin know whether Yan Chao is still alive?"
Gu Xueyi paused, and added: "They should be, they failed to kill Yan Chao, but they also lost contact with Yan Chao."
"I see." Chen Yujin responded.
He turned his head and wanted to say a few more words with Gu Xueyi, but Gu Xueyi closed her eyes.
It looks quiet and beautiful.
Chen Yujin closed her mouth and swallowed the words back into her throat.
She still cares about President Yan's safety.
But she didn't know, they already knew this.
And this...he couldn't tell her.
But what Gu Xueyi closed her eyes was thinking that her phone vibrated just now, and she received a text message from Yan Wenbai.
[Not tonight]
Extremely brief.
The mental growth of the children of the Yan family is slower than that of the children of the Gu family and the Sheng family in the past.
Especially Yan Wenbo, who used to stay away from home for three to five days, either fighting with others or playing illegal racing with others... His daily activities should be strictly controlled.
I don't know how long it has passed, Chen Yujin's voice sounded in the carriage: "Here we are."
Gu Xueyi opened her eyes.
Chen Yujin got out of the car, walked around to her side, and opened the car door for her.
At the same time, she whispered: "What did Pei Lixin promise to his wife today?"
"It's not her promise, it's me who ordered." Gu Xueyi said.
"Order?" Chen Yujin was taken aback.
"I told her that I like to make a set of gemstones of various colors, I like Hetian jade and jadeite..."
Chen Yujin couldn't help laughing: "My wife is a bit cruel. Pei Lixin is going to be hurt."
This time he smiled sincerely, not pretending.
Gu Xueyi shook her head: "What are these?"
If she had used the list of gifts sent to her by others on her birthday every year in the boudoir in the past, if she had recited a few of them at random, Pei Lixin would have been able to empty out her private money.
Chen Yujin paused.
Send Gu Xueyi into the door.
what is this
It was hard to imagine that these words would come out of Gu Xueyi's mouth.
But her tone was indeed calm, even dismissive. She didn't seem to notice those things at all.
Not only did Chen Yujin think again, could the Gu family really raise such a daughter
Gu Xueyi entered the door.
Yan Wenshu sat on the sofa and drew for a while, but she was too restless to draw. When she heard footsteps, she immediately put down the drawing board in her hand. When she saw that it was Gu Xueyi who had returned, she quickly picked up the drawing board again.
"I... a psychiatrist said that restless emotions can be soothed in this way." Yan Wenshu said awkwardly.
"Yes." Gu Xueyi stepped forward.
Yan Wenshu is a little afraid of her, but also a little like her, and wants to be her very much.
Yan Wenshu started to have nothing to say: "Yan Wenbai didn't come back today..."
"Well, I already know." Gu Xueyi said, and handed out the gift box she was carrying: "Here I am."
Yan Wenshu took it over flatteredly, and tightened her grip on the strap.
When she recovered, Gu Xueyi had already gone upstairs.
This is the first time Yan Wenshu has received a gift from "family".
It's... family, right
She is the eldest brother's wife.
It's her sister-in-law.
Yan Wenshu opened the lid, and there was a pigeon blood red gemstone inside.
Yan Wenshu's breathing was stagnant.
She has seen many precious gems, but none are as beautiful as this one...
Is Gu Xueyi rewarding her
Yan Wenshu closed the lid and held the gift box in her arms.
Yan Wenbo definitely did not.
Yan Wenjia certainly did not.
Yan Wenshu hugged the box, and couldn't help but let out a cry: "Hee hee." Then she covered her mouth suddenly, looked left and right to make sure that no one heard her gaffe, and then went upstairs .
In the crew, Yan Wenjia, who was caught by the cue, had disheveled hair, her neckline was torn apart, and her buttons were scattered.
The melancholy and cold smell enveloped him even deeper.
He specially stayed up all night before filming the next scene.
Sitting behind the monitor, Director Li was moved to tears.
God, he has invited a treasure!
In this circle, there is no fucking person more dedicated than Yan Wenjia!
"Card!" Director Li shouted loudly with a loudspeaker: "One pass!"
After securing one, Director Li hurriedly asked Yan Wenjia to rest.
Yan Wenjia still didn't leave immediately, but sat outside the arena, took a mobile phone, typed a few words, typed and deleted...
Yan Wenjia looked at the dialog box where there was no movement at all, and finally picked up the phone to take a selfie with a haggard look.
Tweet.
@原文嘉: Three o'clock in the morning. [picture]
After posting Weibo, he manually refreshed it again, watching the comment area quickly flooded with a large number of fans.
[Why did it take so late? Ahh, it hurts]
[It's dry, is it because my brother has no money to spend? Suddenly very dedicated. I'll spend money on Brother Yuan!]
[Three in the morning? Surprised! Brother Yuan, go to sleep! The face is so haggard! But still good to see the explosion! Really fairy-like skin!]
…
Yan Wenjia read it again, full of all kinds of distressed and lamented how dedicated he is.
Yan Wenjia was satisfied, so she put away her phone: "Let's go."
The broker followed.
The heart is restless.
I am getting more and more uncertain about Brother Yuan's thoughts...
Yan Wenbai did not return to Yan's house that night.
He slept in a hotel overnight and then went to school.
After arriving at the school, other people came over and wanted to hug his neck, but seeing the cold expression on his face, they restrained themselves wisely.
But his mouth didn't stop: "I'm just saying, why did Fourth Young Master Yan suddenly change his appearance. In fact, Fourth Young Master hasn't changed!"
These rich second generations are not people who follow the rules.
Of course, I don't want people in my circle to suddenly change their minds and become obedient babies who listen to their parents.
Otherwise, wouldn't their reckless behavior seem silly
Yan Wenbo ignored the other party, went straight to the corner and sat down, put the books on the shelf, and started to catch up on sleep on his stomach.
Seeing that they couldn't talk to each other, they curled their lips and decided not to go. They sat with their own people, two rows in front of Yan Wenbai.
Yan Wenbai just narrowed his eyes.
There seemed to be a few more people sitting down in front, and one of them said, "I saw Yan Wenbai's sister-in-law yesterday."
"Ah, what's the matter?"
"Fuck, it's so fucking good. Just to see, you can't hold that..."
"Haha, is it true or not?"
"I've seen the photos before, they are really beautiful."
"A real person is a hundred times more beautiful than a photo!"
"Shh, don't say it too loudly, don't let Fourth Young Master Yan hear you."
"Is he here? What are you afraid of?"
"Sleeping later."
"Oh, that's okay, don't we praise his sister-in-law? Are you not allowed to praise him?"
Yan Wenbai slowly opened his eyes.
"Are you boasting? You are greedy for being beautiful."
"Stupid, Yan Wenbo didn't hear anything. If this matter is going to be heard by Yan Chao, how many lives do you have?"
"Isn't Yan Chao not coming back?" The man paused and said, "Yan Wenbai's sister-in-law is really pretty, and if you just leave it there and just watch her eat, you will find it pleasing to the eye. Right, Young Master Pei?"
Yan Wenbo stood up vigorously, stepped over the table in front of him with his long legs, and amidst the exclamation of other students, he grabbed the man by the collar and slammed it onto the table.
Immediately afterwards, he punched the opponent on the chin.
