Chapter 116 The Peeping Tom at the Engagement
Chapter 116 The Peeping Tom at the Engagement
Sitting in the first row, Jiang Fengling had an excellent perspective. Not only did he see the scene recently, but he also looked back at the guests very clearly.
Xie Zhaoqin wore a short pink gauze dress, her hair was casually draped behind her head, with slight curls, she looked extraordinarily delicate and cute.
The eyes of the two collided in mid-air, Jiang Fengling just wanted to bend his lips and smile to show politeness, but Xie Zhaoqin moved his eyes away without a trace.
This person seems to have completely forgotten about asking him for help a few days ago.
Xie Zhaoqin retracted his gaze and didn't stay too long on Jiang Fengling.
She didn't know whether it was right or wrong for her to entrust such an important matter to Jiang Fengling, the second generation ancestor. If he couldn't do it or sold herself, all her plans would fall short.
But for some reason, she inexplicably felt that this second-generation ancestor who seemed to be bohemian was actually a caring person.
She is willing to trust him once, after all, as the unfavored children of these upper-class families, they all have one thing in common, that is, they are eager to prove themselves.
After getting along for this period of time, she gradually felt that it was not a bad decision to use cooperation as an excuse to become a partner with Jiang Fengling.
Xie Zhaoqin glanced around casually, and caught a glimpse of a familiar figure at the corner of the guests.
It was her friend, Cheng Lixing, who never knew what to do.
Looking at her now near the groom and guests, could it be that she is friends with Jiang Fengting?
Thinking of this, Xie Zhaoqin got up gently, carefully swept past the guests, and walked to Cheng Lixing's side.
"You have seen all this. Are you here to attend the engagement banquet or to arrest me?" Cheng Lixing looked at Xie Zhaoqin with a half-smile, with a bit of teasing in his eyes.
"Why are you here?" Xie Zhaoqin asked instead of answering her.
"The bride is my college roommate." Before coming here, Xia Xi called to invite her and she declined, but after thinking about it, she still felt that it was safe to come and have a look.
At the very least, you need to know whether this rich man is reliable.
"Xia Xi?" Xie Zhaoqin asked in surprise. She always thought that Cheng Lixing was a loner and wouldn't get too involved with anyone. Although they could be called friends, they had to indicate the price when they asked her for help. But he never imagined that she would quietly come to Xia Xi's engagement banquet.
It can be seen that the relationship between them is not as simple as roommates.
Everyone has their own social network, Xie Zhaoqin didn't ask much.
"I'm not the only one who sneaked here." Cheng Lixing said, his eyes seemed to sweep in a more hidden direction inadvertently, Xie Zhaoqin's eyes followed and saw Gu Xuezhong hiding in the dark.
His gaze was fixed on the bride on the stage, his eyes were extremely deep, his expression was unclear, and there was no joy on his face.
Xie Zhaoqin looked back and forth between him and Xia Xi several times, and understood.
Xia Xi's rumored ex-boyfriend was photographed with vague dating photos a long time ago, but the other party's vigilance was so high that the paparazzi had nowhere to start. Xia Xi's rumored boyfriend gradually faded out of the public's attention. Unexpectedly, it was Gu Xuezhong.
Thinking about it now, the figure and blurred facial features of the person in that photo are no different from Gu Xuezhong.
It turned out that the rumored boyfriend who was very vigilant and had tea with the paparazzi twice was Gu Xuezhong.
She should have guessed it earlier.
At that time, Xu Huayi's case, although full of doubts, was closed, and he even went to her studio to ask her a series of questions. At that time, she felt that although he was dedicated, he was too serious. layers involved.
When he said Mrs. Xu and Miss Xia were both victims, she could see the worry and distress in his expression at that time.
It's a pity that there is no fate, he is destined to be a passer-by in Xia Xi's life, and after a brief encounter, he can only face parting.
"It's not just him."
"Anyone else?" Xie Zhaoqin was even more puzzled, why did Jiang Fengding's ex-girlfriend also come over?
"Look at that car." Cheng Lixing slightly raised his chin in a certain direction, and Xie Zhaoqin looked over. It was a black BMW. It didn't look like the type that young people like.
The license plate number is somewhat familiar, it seems to belong to the Jiang family's car.
"Jiang Yun's car, Jiang Feng stopped that flamboyant father." Cheng Lixing said calmly, although the words he used were not accurate, he explained the Jiang family's affairs clearly in an instant.
The word "watery poplar" is the most appropriate description for Jiang Yun.
Feelings are as changeable as running water and as light as poplar flowers.
When he was with Jiang Fengting's mother, he was nostalgic for women outside. When his original partner died, he was with the woman he called his true love, but he missed his original partner again.
Such a person is more hateful than a simple gossip.
If not, why did he drive the car to the engagement banquet and not go in?
He didn't go in because he was afraid that Jiang Fengting would see him overreact, and he didn't leave because he was thinking that Jiang Fengting was his child, and at the same time, he was thinking about his original wife who committed suicide because of his depression.
Isn't such a person ashamed?
The old man's smile never faded all morning. All the guests came to him with blessings, envy, or praise for the dignity, elegance, beauty and generosity of his grand-daughter-in-law. This was the happiest day for him in the past ten years. To call to annoy him.
The second he saw the caller ID, the old man's face quickly fell, showing a bit of displeasure.
The guest who was still chatting flatteringly on the opposite side immediately noticed it and fell silent.
The old man raised his hand, indicating that he wanted to answer the phone, and the guests immediately nodded. He walked to a quiet place, and then answered the phone.
Jiang Yun was worried, when he picked up the phone, he didn't know what to say.
"I'm still busy here, so talk quickly." The old man's expression was slightly cold, and his face was icy cold.
"Dad, today is Feng Ting's engagement, so can't you be kind to me?" Jiang Yun said with a tone of grievance.
"You still have the nerve to mention Feng Ting to me, who made him become like this?" The old man was so angry that if he hadn't turned his back to everyone, he would have scolded him a long time ago, "Feng Ting is finally getting a little popular. Married, don't do evil to me!"
"Dad, how can you say that Feng Ting is also my son. I am naturally happy that he is engaged, but I can't even appear on the stage. Are you being too cruel to me? You are kind enough to let me go in and have a look. I promise not to let Feng Ting find out. Just take a look and I'll come out."
Jiang Yun begged hard, after all, he was the youngest son he loved the most, and the old man softened his heart a little.
"Jiang Yun, it's not that I'm cruel. If I see you coming in, I think you know how Feng Ting will react. If you want this engagement banquet to go on normally, listen to me and stay outside to watch." Let's see."
"Dad, I kneel down for you." Jiang Yun's voice was pleading a little more, and his voice was hoarse and weeping.The old man's heart was shocked. For so many years, he drove Jiang Yun out of Jiang's house and ordered him not to go home. He didn't even have half of Jiang's shares, and he wouldn't give him a dime of Jiang's money. At that time, what would he rather be? Don't even want to marry that woman. He was so stubborn, but now he begged him humbly and crying. He was proud since he was a child, and he had never done this before. The words of his refusal were stuck in his throat, and he said nothing not out.
"Come in, hide it tightly, let Feng Ting find out, you and I can't bear the consequences."
The old man hung up the phone and turned his eyes to Jiang Fengting who was joking with the guests.
It has been 15 years since he brought Feng Ting back from the countryside. He has never smiled so sincerely. As a grandfather, he almost forgot that his grandson was originally the most lively and sunny.
When he was young, he was the smartest. Fengchi couldn't memorize the multiplication table of ninety-nine when he was seven years old, but he could recite it backwards when he was four years old. The teachers he hired said that he was a gifted child with a vivid memory. He will definitely be the mainstay of the Jiang family in the future, leading the whole The Jiang family has completely monopolized the industry market and has become a peak that others can hardly match.
He still remembers that he was holding a book of poems, and he closed the book with hard-to-remember poems, and he could recite them smoothly from beginning to end standing there. On the side of the poem, he told him the allusions in the poem.
This kind of Jiang Fengding, since he was 12 years old when he went to the countryside to pick up Jiang's family, he was autistic and indifferent, and he was equally silent to everyone. He didn't say a few words when he returned home. He was still smart, but seemed Lost soul.
A few times he cried and wanted to go back to the countryside to find friends, but they thought he was bewildered and carried him back to the bedroom, and he stopped struggling after a long time.
Jiang Fengting was only 19 years old when he graduated from graduate school. He was indeed the pillar of the entire Jiang family as the teacher said, but for 15 years, he was always indifferent, that is, he would only say a few words when facing him.
Later, he adopted Ruirui, and he became a little more cheerful, but it was not half as good as him at the moment.
He thought he had really met the one he loved.
I only hope that the family can let him get rid of the shadow of the past completely, and bathe in the sunshine again.
Jiang Yun hung up the phone, as if he had been pardoned, he was so guilty for the first time in his life, he found the corner with the most people, stood at the end of the crowd, and looked at the couple in the front from a distance.
Feng Ting is not like him, although he was considered suave and suave when he was young, most of Feng Ting's looks are inherited from his mother.
That noble and cold woman.
Looking at it from a distance, it looks like an epiphyllum blooming proudly against the night.
Such a cold beauty ended up ruining her whole life in his indifference and heartlessness.
She was so noble, but in the end she chose the ugliest way to end her life. Her body was immersed in cold water, and the filth and weeds corroded her.
Feng Ting is more like her, with clear and cold brows, deep and bottomless eyes, and extremely good-looking.
Looking at it from a distance like this, he seemed a little dissatisfied, and moved forward uncontrollably.
He saw his bride, with a face like the breeze and the moon, and she smiled dignifiedly and indifferently. Even in the face of these spirits of the Jiang family, she still dealt with them calmly and calmly.
Although he had never met formally, he could tell that the two were a good match.
The wind stops and people are never wrong.
Just as he was staring blankly, someone behind him suddenly pulled him hard. Jiang Yun was startled, and hurriedly lowered his head to cover his face.
