Changsun Dongju originally greeted Ye Bufan with a smile, but when she saw Ye Bufan's face, her expression suddenly changed and she stayed there in a daze.
Last time at the Wang family, her attention was all on Wang Xuance and Wang Xuening. She didn't even look at Wang Xingye much. She didn't even notice Ye Bufan next to her. It wasn't until today that she really saw the appearance of the young man in front of her.
Wang Xuening was shocked when she saw the appearance of her eldest grandson Dongju. If it weren't for the age gap between the two parties, she would have thought that she was trying to steal the man from her.
"Aunt Changsun, are you okay?"
"Ah...it's okay, it's okay."
Only then did Changsun Dongju come back to her senses and realized that she had just lost her composure. She said with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, Xiaoye looks so much like an old person from my past, so I'm a little distracted.
Sit down quickly, sit down quickly."
After several people sat down, she still couldn't help but glance at Ye Bufan.
"Xiaoye, what's your last name?"
Ye Bufan's captain Sun Dongju couldn't help laughing at her question, and said: "Aunt Changsun, of course my surname is Ye."
"That's right, you look at me. I'm so confused." Changsun Dongju patted her forehead and said, "You two look so much alike. If your surname hadn't been Ye, I would have thought you were his son."
Ye Bufan said with some curiosity: "Aunt Changsun, is it really such a coincidence? Who is the person you are talking about? I really want to meet him if I have the chance."
His curiosity was aroused by Changsun Dongju's reaction. He hadn't found his parents for many years. If they were really similar to him, there might be some clues.
"An old friend from the past."
Mentioning that person, Changsun Dongju's expression quickly darkened, and she sighed and said, "I won't talk about it anymore. I haven't seen that person in more than 20 years."
"oh!"
Seeing her lonely look, Ye Bufan didn't ask any more questions. After all, there weren't many coincidences in the world, and he didn't hold out much hope.
At this time, the waiter brought the food and wine, and Granny Ying closed the door and left.
However, Ye Bufan's spiritual consciousness glanced and saw that the old lady was guarding the door of the room, always paying attention to the movements inside the room, obviously protecting the safety of Changsun Dongju.
Changsun Dongju poured a glass of wine for all three of them, then picked up the glass and said: "Xiaoye, what Sheng'er did last night was indeed too much. Auntie has already punished him and formally apologized to you.
And I promise you, I will take Changsun Sheng back to the imperial capital tomorrow, and the Changsun family will never cause trouble to you again, and this kind of thing will never happen again."
Ye Bufan has been observing the other person's expression, and even felt her heartbeat, knowing that these words are completely from the heart, without any false elements.
However, he did not pick up the wine glass immediately. After all, this was a big deal. Changsun Sheng wanted to take his own life, so it would not be easy to get over it.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Changsun Dongju didn't show any anger and raised her head to drink up her wine in one gulp.
"My son has not been educated well. As a mother, I should punish myself."
After finishing the glass of wine, Changsun Dongju refilled her glass again, and then took out a check from her bag: "Xiaoye, Auntie also knows that this kind of thing cannot be solved with money.
But this is a little bit of aunt's kindness, and it can be regarded as a little compensation for you."
After finishing speaking, she looked at Ye Bufan with burning eyes.
For some reason, Ye Bufan's heart softened for no reason after seeing his gaze. He sighed and said, "Aunt Changsun, even if this matter is over, I can't take the money."
Changsun Dongju said: "How can this be done? Xiaoye, do you think it is too little? If you think it is too little, just tell me a number and Auntie will never refute."
Ye Bufan didn't even look at the check from beginning to end, and said: "Auntie, you have said that this kind of thing cannot be solved by money.
The reason why I said this matter is over is entirely for your sake. I don't want to be your enemy, nor will I take revenge on Changsun Sheng."
These words came completely from the heart. Changsun Dongju brought him a great sense of intimacy and he really did not want to conflict with this woman or even become an enemy.
"Well, our eldest grandson's family owes you a favor. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just tell aunt eldest grandson."
Changsun Dongju said, picking up the wine glass again, "Auntie, here's a toast to you."
This time, Ye Bufan didn't hesitate at all. He picked up the wine glass, clinked it and drank it in one gulp.
Finally, the atmosphere at the wine table became cheerful. After a while, Wang Xuening asked: "Aunt Changsun, is there something I want to ask you?"
"What's the matter? Just tell me."
Wang Xuening said: "I canceled my marriage to your son, why aren't you angry?"
"What's there to be angry about? An engagement is originally an agreement. If one party is unwilling, it can be terminated."
Speaking of this, Changsun Dongju showed a look of nostalgia on her face, "And Auntie admires your courage and your ability to bravely pursue your love.
Auntie was just like you when she was young. At that time, I thought, I will fight anyone who dares to touch my love, not even the King of Heaven."
Ye Bufan could tell from her eyes that she was an absolutely infatuated woman, but he didn't know why she ended up alone.
Wang Xuening did not know much about Changsun Dongju's situation because she rejected marriage with Changsun Sheng.
At this moment, she asked with great interest: "Aunt Changsun, what happened next? Your love must be very happy, right?"
"Perfect?"
An extremely complicated look flashed across Zhangsun Dongju's face, then she shook her head and said, "Forget it, who can explain things like feelings clearly? Let's not mention the past, let's drink."
After drinking a glass of wine, a blush appeared on her cheeks. She looked at Ye Bufan and said: "The young man is really good, very good, capable but not arrogant.
Xuening is a lucky kid and has found a good man. I wish you a lifetime of happiness."
The meal ended in an extremely cheerful atmosphere. A few hours later, Ye Bufan and Wang Xuening said goodbye to their eldest grandson Dongju and left the Yunshan Club.
After going out, Wang Xuening said: "Xiaofan, you are right, it is really not the Hongmen Banquet. It seems that Aunt Changsun really wants to apologize to you."
Ye Bufan said: "I can also see that Aunt Changsun is a good woman, but I don't know how she could give birth to a vicious son like Changsun Sheng with her personality."
Wang Xuening said: "Is there any need to say that? He must have followed his father."
"How do you know his father is not a good person?"
Wang Xuening received: "Isn't this obvious? If you can abandon such a good woman as Aunt Sun, how can you be a good man?"
Ye Bufan said: "Who can explain clearly about feelings?"
In the Yunshan Club, Changsun Dongju looked at Ye Bufan's leaving figure and said to Granny Ying next to her: "Grandma, do you think he looks like that person? I think he is so similar, even the way he walks is similar."
The mother-in-law said in a hoarse voice: "Miss, can't you forget him?"
Changsun Dongju said with a complicated expression: "It's not that I can't forget it. I've always wanted to ask him why he abandoned me and my son? Why did he leave suddenly without saying goodbye? Why has there been no news from him in these years?"
