Chapter 51(1/2)
There were so many people attending the engagement banquet, they were so densely packed that there were almost no extra empty seats.
The immediate family members were all sitting at the front tables. Bai Yan saw relatives whom she had not contacted or met for a long time. However, few of them talked to her. They all knew that Bai Yan had a difficult temper. Some relatives had said otherwise.
She, but she was so rebuffed that she had nothing to say.
Bai Yan and Mo Wenwen were sitting together, and next to them were her grandmother and grandfather.
The engagement banquet started soon. Chen Ju and Jiang Mengmeng were both very good-looking, and they stood out even more in their exquisite dresses. Their relatives were quite satisfied with them, and they had a good time chatting at the banquet table.
Mo Wenwen specially brought her mobile phone today and took several enlarged photos of Chen Ju.
Fortunately, Chen Ju was good-looking, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to withstand her unskilled grasping and magnification.
"My skills are not very good, so I won't take pictures of your uncle and his wife. In order to save the beautiful pictures, I will take two more ugly photos of him and send them to him in the afternoon."
Bai Yan couldn't help but hummed.
Soon the engagement ceremony was over, and after the toasts, it was time for the banquet.
Suddenly, Bai Yan heard a familiar voice. She turned her head sharply and saw Gu Shaoan's figure.
Why is he here?
However, Bai Yan quickly realized that Gu Shaoan's parents seemed to know Chen Ju and had heard Chen Ju mention it before.
Bai Yancai watched it for a few seconds when he heard Mo Wenwen complaining next to him: "Yanyan, I gave you so much, why don't you eat it?"
Bai Yan came to his senses immediately, "If you don't want to eat it, you don't need to pick it up for me. It's already enough."
"If you don't include the ones you like to eat, the wait will come around again, and they might be robbed."
What Mo Wenwen said is quite reasonable, because some relatives are really greedy when eating, and one or two plates will be empty after a few turns.
Gu Shao'an's father came to his grandma's place this morning. Gu Shao'an was about to leave by bike. But after hearing the conversation between the two of them, Gu Shao'an took the initiative to have a dinner.
Because he knew that this was Uncle Bai Yan's engagement party.
Gu Shao'an rarely attended such banquets before. His parents insisted on forcing him to go, but he finally volunteered. Gu Shao'an's father was naturally very happy and brought him here.
The man next to Gu Shaoan's father asked, "Shaoan, what grade are you in?"
This man, Gu Shaoan, had met him before. He seemed to be a colleague of his father. He had also been in contact with Chen Ju before, so he was invited.
He responded politely: "Second year of high school."
"Study harder and try to get into a good university."
Gu Shaoan's father joked back: "Why are you telling me this? He studies much better than your son. He has certificates posted everywhere at home. He even won the Mathematical Olympiad in junior high school."
Later, Gu Shaoan stopped listening carefully to the conversation between them. He knew where Bai Yan was sitting, so he turned around and looked there again.
Not long after looking at it, Bai Yan turned his head and looked towards him.
The moment their eyes met, Bai Yan's heart trembled slightly, and the meat in her mouth became a little less fragrant.
Gu Shao'an obviously didn't expect Bai Yan to look over suddenly. He thought Bai Yan didn't notice him because before that, Gu Shao'an had already peeked at her several times.
At this time, Grandma Bai Yan suddenly asked, "Yanyan, how is the cooking of this new nanny?"
Bai Yan hurriedly looked away, turned his head to look at his grandmother, and responded: "It's delicious, and it suits my taste."
Grandma Bai Yan raised her lips in joy and felt inexplicably proud in her heart.
Next, Grandma Baiyan looked around for a few times, and after seeing Chen Shu chatting with others, she continued confidently: "It's better than the one your mother hired before. I'll give the nanny a few more recipes on the way back."
, not only nourishes the stomach but also increases appetite.”
Bai Yan naturally trusts his grandmother's cooking skills, after all, she has been a chef.
For some reason, Bai Yan always felt that her grandmother had been extremely kind to her recently, which was not the case before.
After chatting with his grandmother, Bai Yan glanced at Gu Shaoan's seat again and found that he was no longer in his seat.
Bai Yan glanced around twice and quickly caught his figure.
At this moment, Gu Shaoan was walking towards the bathroom.
Bai Yan put down the chopsticks he was holding, stood up, and said to Mo Wenwen next to him, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Just as she was about to take steps to leave, she heard Mo Wenwen's response, "I'm going too."
Bai Yan couldn't shirk it, so he had no choice but to agree.
Fortunately, Mo Wenwen was a big girl and gave her a chance. Bai Yan stayed in the women's restroom for less than half a minute, then came out and waited in the restroom.
Sure enough, Gu Shaoan came out not long after.
Gu Shaoan froze on the spot after seeing Bai Yan's figure.
Bai Yan took the initiative to greet him: "What a coincidence, why are you here too?"
Gu Shaoan came to his senses and said, "Your uncle invited me."
Bai Yan then asked: "How long have you taken leave? Do you have anything to do this afternoon?"
In fact, his father only invited him for half a day, but from Bai Yan's tone, it seemed that he had something to ask of him, so Gu Shaoan lied and said, "If you don't go to school in the afternoon, there should be nothing to do."
"Then can you tell me some more questions? I still don't understand the information you gave me."
"Of course. You can go to the convenience store to find me at three o'clock in the afternoon. I will wait for you there."
Bai Yan nodded.
After that, they stopped talking. Gu Shaoan went to the sink to wash his hands and left.
Bai Yan didn't know that the bathroom was not soundproof. Mo Wenwen, who was in the women's bathroom, heard what the two of them said clearly. When she came out, she glared at Bai Yan several times.
Bai Yan felt a little guilty after being stared at, so she asked, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
"What else can I do? I just heard something I shouldn't have heard. Is there really something between you and him?"
Bai Yanpan's heart beat faster. He hesitated for a while before responding: "You're overthinking. I just want to ask him a few questions. I have nothing to do in the afternoon anyway."
Mo Wenwen clicked his tongue in disbelief.
The engagement party ended at about 12:30 noon, and most of the people left one after another, including Mo Wenwen and Bai Yan. It was Chen Ju's assistant who sent them home. Of course, there were still people in the car.
Bai Yan’s grandmother and grandfather.
The closest one is Bai Yan's house. Grandma Bai Yan originally wanted to tell the nanny in person, but at this time, the nanny is on lunch break and does not need to go to work.
Grandma Bai Yan had no choice but to give the things to Bai Yan, and also warned: "Remember to let her study hard."
–
During the two hours when she got home, Bai Yan was immersed in the materials given by Gu Shaoan. She had only been doing the homework assigned by the teacher during the day at night recently and had not read the materials at all.
The last time I saw it was when Gu Shaoan came to his house and he was teaching chemistry papers. Now when Bai Yan looked at the questions he taught, he found that he still couldn't understand them.
Bai Yan couldn't help but feel a little guilty. In order to live up to Gu Shaoan's kindness, she could only bite the bullet and read it, and then circled all the questions that she didn't understand.
Bai Yan was watching the time, fearing that she would miss it, so she set an alarm clock for three o'clock.
After the alarm rang, Bai Yan picked up the materials, scratch paper and pen and went out to the bedroom.
When he walked to the door of the convenience store, Bai Yan realized that Gu Shaoan hadn't come yet. Afraid of being misunderstood by the clerk, Bai Yan didn't go in and simply waited outside.
Occasionally a few pedestrians pass by on the road.
Suddenly, a woman riding a scooter stopped in front of her.
The woman was riding so fast that she was just a few centimeters away from hitting Bai Yan.
Bai Yan couldn't hold it back and cursed angrily: "Can you pay attention to people while riding? Where are your eyes?"
The middle-aged woman got off the battery car, pointed at Bai Yan and said: "I just want to kill you. Who told you to bully my son before and send my son to the hospital? With your face, I can kill you."
Got it."
When Bai Yan was in high school, she only beat one boy the hardest, and it was Chen Shu who helped her settle the matter with her class teacher.
"If it weren't for you, my son wouldn't be afraid of transferring to another school. The school he's transferred to now is shabby, and the tuition is several times more expensive than here. It's all your fault. I have to work two jobs every day."
After the middle-aged woman finished speaking, she went up and wanted to pinch Bai Yan's neck, but Bai Yan reacted very quickly. She just dodged away, and then said coldly: "You are really protective of the calf. Didn't you know what he did at that time?"
?"
The middle-aged woman retorted: "He didn't mean it. Even if he did something wrong, you shouldn't beat him so hard."
When Gu Shaoan arrived, he happened to see this scene. He hurriedly stopped his bicycle, walked over with his long legs, and stood between the two of them.
"Auntie, if you have anything, we can talk slowly."
The middle-aged woman raised her head, looked at Gu Shao'an and said, "Do you know what happened? Just let me speak slowly, can you please stop meddling in other people's business?"
Gu Shaoan was a little confused, he really didn't know what happened.
However, Gu Shao'an knew deep down that there must be a reason. Bai Yan was not the kind of person who bullied others at will.
The middle-aged woman's expression was full of anger, "Can't you hear me when I ask you to get up?"
Afraid that the middle-aged woman would hurt Gu Shaoan, Bai Yan walked directly to him.
Sure enough, the middle-aged woman no longer paid attention to Gu Shaoan, and shifted all her attention to Bai Yan, "If it weren't for my busy work, I would have gone out to take revenge on you this morning. It turns out that your family lives nearby. I have never
