A few days passed by, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day of Mother Ning's 50th birthday banquet.
Ye Jing got up early in the morning and started to dress herself up. She slept late last night, and her dark circles were a bit conspicuous.
She obviously went to bed early, but she couldn't fall asleep. When she thought about waking up, she was going to see Ning Yi's parents, relatives and friends. It was still on such a solemn occasion, and... Ning Yi's mother still didn't seem to like her, so she just I wanted to toss and turn, but it was almost dawn before I fell asleep for a while.
She put on light makeup and put on a goose-yellow dress and strappy stilettos. The bright colors added a lot of blood and vitality to her face.
After packing up, Ye Jing went out. She was going to stop a taxi at the entrance of the hotel, but as soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw a man in a suit and leather shoes sitting on the sofa in the lobby, holding a newspaper in one hand and coffee in the other. .
"Why are you here, didn't I say I went over by myself?" Ye Jing walked slowly to him and asked with her mouth open.
Xie Fei put down the coffee in his hand and pinched her cool hand. The next moment he frowned and looked up and down at Ye Jing, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Wear so little?"
Ye Jing felt guilty for a while when he looked at her. After hesitating for a long time when changing clothes, she finally gave up the warm type and chose the good-looking type. She looked away, swallowed her saliva, and said, "A lot... It's not cold, but my hands are cold because it's exposed outside."
Xie Fei couldn't help her talk, pulled her to his side and sat down, took off the scarf around his neck and put it on her.
His movements are very gentle, but the expression on his face is a little unpredictable, and it doesn't look like he is angry, but his beautiful thin lips are tightly pursed, and his body also exudes a cold breath.
Ye Jing bit her lower lip and hesitated for a few seconds, then stretched out her hand to pull on his sleeve and whispered, "I'm sorry, I know I'm wrong... But it's really ugly to wear too much, I want to keep it for my uncles and aunties. A good impression."
Xie Fei tidied up the scarf for a while. After a while, he looked up at Ye Jing's aggrieved face and sighed: "It doesn't matter what they do, you don't need to please them for me..." He paused when he said this. After a while, the warm palm touched her small face and rubbed it a few times, her tone slowed down a bit, "You don't have to aggrieve yourself like this, it will make me feel bad."
Ye Jing's almond eyes filled with spring water, she put her hand on his big palm, and pursed her lips: "I don't want to wrong myself, and I don't want to make you feel bad... In fact, I also hope that I look better, or I Go back up now?"
"Forget it." Xie Fei shook his head and smiled, "If you like it, just wear my clothes if it's cold."
Saying that, he pinched her slightly red nose: "Don't be brave."
"En." Ye Jing nodded obediently, her smiling eyebrows curved.
…
More than an hour later, the car stopped in front of the Ning family villa. Although it was winter, there was a lush and lush scene as far as the eye could see.
The lawn and garden in front of the villa have been carefully decorated, the steps are covered with red carpets, beautiful music comes from the gate, and there are bursts of laughter from time to time.
Ye Jing took Xie Fei's arm and walked in slowly. People came and went in the banquet hall, singing and dancing.
Swallowing nervously, Ye Jing looked at the unfamiliar crowd at the banquet, not knowing what to do for a while.
Xie Fei noticed the ups and downs of her emotions, patted her hand lightly, and took her to a slightly quiet corner to sit down: "You have some refreshments and rest here now, I'll go see if Grandpa is ready. , and take you to see him later."
"Okay." Ye Jing smiled and nodded.
"Call me if you have anything." Xie Fei paused and said again, "Don't be polite if someone finds fault, remember, you are the major general's wife."
"As ordered, Major General." Ye Jing nodded obediently again, smiled and pushed him, urging, "Go quickly, I'll be fine."
After Xie Fei left, the tension in his heart gradually came up again, Ye Jing took the juice on the table and sipped it, slowly calming down the tension.
Bored, she ate her refreshments and looked around, and the next moment she saw Lin Manyue in the crowd. She was wearing a floor-length silver mermaid dress, a small white fox coat over her upper body, and her hair was tucked behind her head. A pair of sparkling silver diamond earrings are worn on the ears.
She snuggled close to a graceful and luxurious lady beside her, and the two were chatting and laughing with the three ladies opposite. Lin Manyue bowed her head and smiled, the smile on her face was perfect, delicate and beautiful, but if you look closely, you will find that there is no smile in her eyes.
At this moment, Lin Manyue picked up a glass of wine from the tray held by the waiter, and when he smiled and thanked him, he saw Ye Jing in the corner.
She immediately smiled and waved her hand. She turned her head and didn't know what to say to those people. After a while, she walked towards Ye Jing.
"Sister Ye, why didn't you tell me when you came?" Lin Manyue took Ye Jing's hand and smiled, "Aunt Ning is there, let's go, let me introduce you to you."
Her movements and expressions were very innocent and cute, but her tone revealed the master's aura and ostentation, how could Ye Jing not hear it.
She didn't want to cooperate with Lin Manyue's performance, but she couldn't refuse, because Ning's mother not far away was looking at them from a distance.
Ye Jing nodded with a smile, and took the opportunity to withdraw her hand by tidying up her skirt, then got up and followed Lin Manyue over there.
"Aunt Ning, this is Sister Ye Jing, the one I often tell you about. Sister Ye, this is Brother Ning's mother, um... Why don't you call me Aunt Ning with me—" Lin Manyue held Ye Jing's arms Arm, enthusiastically introduced the two of them.
It's just that she was interrupted by Mother Ning before she could finish her words. She squinted at Ye Jing and said lukewarmly, "Farewell, we don't know each other very well, so just call me Mrs. Ning. "
The smile on Ye Jing's face did not diminish, and she nodded politely and said, "Mrs. Ning, I wish you a happy birthday."
"Thank you." Mother Ning responded lightly without squinting, and then greeted Lin Manyue with a smile on her face, "Man'er, come and meet Mrs. Zhuo. She just praised you for your ingenuity and thoughtfulness."
Who is not a human being present, how can such an obvious difference in treatment not be seen? But this has nothing to do with them. Besides just watching the fun, it is impossible for them to do nosy things.
Everyone turned their attention to Ye Jing and Lin Manyue, biting her lip guiltily, "Sister Ye..."
"It's alright, don't worry about me, you can go to Mrs. Ning's side." Ye Jing said neither humble nor arrogant, with a calm demeanor without the slightest bit of arrogance, and was not at all embarrassed by others' criticism.
In fact, she was somewhat grateful to Mother Ning for calling Lin Manyue over, because it was really uncomfortable for her to be pulled by Lin Manyue, and she was very uncomfortable.
Lin Manyue's hand was not the kind of coolness that was simply because of the cold, but a faint chill that pierced into the bone marrow.
She obviously doesn't like herself, but she still has to make such an intimate gesture, which makes Ye Jing very disliked, like a sinister beauty snake clinging to her, hiding in the dark and peeping at her coldly, as long as If you don't pay attention, she will take the opportunity to pounce on her and bite herself.
Her dignified, generous and calm appearance has quietly won the favor of some ladies. No matter what the girl's family background is, her attitude towards people is much better than that of many girls of the same age.
Lin Manyue and Mrs. Zhuo greeted a few people, Mrs. Zhuo took Lin Manyue's hand and clapped and smiled: "What a beautiful and capable boy, what a lazy girl like my family, who can't even take care of herself, more Not to mention helping organize such a big banquet."
After speaking, she sighed again and said, "Sure enough, studying abroad can really train people's self-care ability. It seems that I really want to send Qing'er to stay here."
A little girl next to Mrs. Zhuo pouted and said silently, "Che, what's so great."
When Lin Manyue heard the words, he immediately shook his head embarrassedly: "Mrs. Zhuo, you have won the prize, but I didn't actually do anything. When I was studying abroad, I basically stayed at school, so I just did some trivial things, I really couldn't be a 'capable'. ' Two words."
Having said this, she paused, turned her head slowly to look at Ye Jing, and said in surprise in the next moment: "Sister Ye is the one who deserves it when it comes to being competent. Moving out of the house and sharing the lease with others, it’s just…”
"Just what?" Mother Ning asked subconsciously.
"It's just that the co-tenant seems to be... a boy?" Lin Manyue pursed her lips and said cautiously, and then she shook her head and smiled, "Well... Maybe I heard wrong, Sister Ye should not be with boys. Let's rent together?"
It was waiting for me here.
Ye Jing smiled calmly, she guessed that Lin Manyue should have some way to get some information about herself from Jiang Wei's mouth, but it shouldn't be much, as for whether she sent someone to investigate more about herself news, which she did not know.
Anyway, she definitely didn't know that it was Ning Yi who lived with her, otherwise she wouldn't be stupid enough to say this in public.
"You heard that right, I do share a lease with a boy." Ye Jing nodded generously and replied, "No, maybe you prefer the word 'cohabitation'?"
Ye Jing stared at Lin Manyue closely, not missing her eyes that flashed when she heard the word "cohabitation".
"Cohabitation?!" Lin Manyue looked at Ye Jing in shock, her voice suddenly raised to a higher level, and some of the guests around them looked sideways, "Sister Ye, are you kidding me? How can girls be casual with boys? Living together, how can you be worthy of your future husband by doing this... I'm sorry, this is the last time I will call you Sister Ye, a conservative person like me, I really can't accept this kind of thing."
Mother Ning sneered: "Silly Man'er, Aunt Ning told you a long time ago, you sister Ye, it's not as simple as it looks on the surface, and you can enter this kind of upper-level banquet as a broken household. How can a little trick be worthy of her appearance."
At this time, the ladies around also inquired about most of the gossip from others, and they pointed at each other. Lin Manyue lowered his head slightly, and bangs covered the smile in her eyes.
Ye Jing sneered, looking at everyone with bright eyes, and said in a clear voice, "I didn't expect that people in the upper classes would actually have these dirty thoughts in their minds."
Everyone didn't expect her to say such a thing. The banquet hall was silent, and they looked away in surprise, panic, or embarrassment.
After a while, a girl in the crowd hummed angrily: "You can do it, why can't we think about it?"
"What did I do? I didn't do anything, it's all your own thoughts." Ye Jing replied calmly, and after speaking, he sighed and said leisurely, "Forget it, I'm not speculating. Too many, your upper-class circles are really messy, and I really can't get involved in this little guy, so I won't disturb your Yaxing."
After she finished speaking, she didn't say more, turned around and walked back to the corner where she was before.
The author has something to say: Tomorrow this world will end, there is a secret from a past life that will finally be revealed, I have been holding back for a long time!
Then, are there any good TV series recently? I didn't watch Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace, and Zhou Xun's voice made me play a little bit (*/ω＼*)
