Li Xi's soliloquy was heard by the old patriarch on the side.

The old patriarch first spoke to let the crowd of onlookers disperse.

He said it was just a small incident.

The engagement party continues.

Then he pretended not to hear clearly and asked:

"Xier, what were you talking about just now?"

A flash of panic flashed across Li Xi's face as he explained:

"No, it's nothing. Oh, I'm talking about the patriarch. What do you think happened tonight? It's a mess!"

The old patriarch glanced at Li Xi and asked:

"Is it messy?"

Li Xi suddenly felt a little flustered and said:

"Let's have a mess."

"What's the mess? It's very clear! You must have grown a brain and are reluctant to use it."

While speaking, the old patriarch raised his hand and patted Li Xi's forehead and said:

"How many times have I warned you to use your brain in everything. Why don't you listen?"

According to Li Xi's character, he would definitely not be able to bear the old patriarch talking like that.

He will definitely explain something with an aggrieved look.

However, Li Xi was abnormal tonight.

Not only did she not explain.

He smiled innocently and stopped talking.

Naturally, she obediently acquiesced to the old patriarch's evaluation of her.

This conversation was intended to convey an intention to Zhang Ling.

That means what happened tonight has nothing to do with her, Li Xi.

That was all Shangguan Aoxue's fault.

Because she, Li Xi, didn't understand what happened at all.

Li Xi anxiously took it out.

The main reason is to make Zhang Ling relax her vigilance about her next behavior.

Little did they know that in Zhang Ling's view, Li Xi's behavior was deceiving others.

But Zhang Ling really has no interest in talking to her now.

This made Li Xi think that his performance just now had achieved the expected goal.

But what Li Xi didn't know was that Zhang Ling's focus had never been on her.

Because Zhang Ling put most of her thoughts on Yan Yuan beside her.

Want to know what happened during the period when Yan Yuan disappeared?

Yan Yuan initially cited the breakup of the relationship as the reason.

The thing that makes sense is that you don't want to answer honestly.

Finally, Xiaodouzi saw the clues thoughtfully.

He also asked Yan Yuan for Zhang Ling.

Yan Yuan then made an excuse and told everything for Xiaodouzi's sake.

It was just Zhang Ling who heard it from Yan Yuan's detailed description.

The so-called driver who took the detour on purpose did not take the detour on purpose.

Because Yan Yuan fell asleep after getting in the car.

When I woke up I saw the crematorium.

The location where the crematorium is located already belongs to the suburbs.

Maybe the driver really didn't expect Yan Yuan to wake up prematurely.

In addition, Yan Yuan realized that he had been detoured.

Tangle with unscrupulous drivers.

He was forced to turn back and send Yan Yuan to the old patriarch's mansion.

In this way, Yan Yuan mistakenly thought that the unscrupulous driver was deliberately pulling her around.

As for the unscrupulous driver who sent Yan Yuan to her destination.

The quarrel started because the car payment could not be agreed upon for a while.

That is for Li Xi and others' plan to go smoothly.

Deliberately delaying for more time.

Yan Yuan thought she was smart and discovered that the other party's car did not have a license plate.

She used this as an excuse to threaten the detour driver to report him if he didn't take the money she gave him.

The driver was so frightened that the detour driver took the fare he was supposed to receive and ran away immediately.

For this reason, Yan Yuan proudly boasted about her intelligence.

Zhang Ling smiled helplessly and shook her head and said:

"You! You know that the other party is a black car, but you dare to get in the car easily. You don't even think about it. The other party is determined to hijack you. Do you think you can still have a chance to bargain?"

"this……"

Yan Yuan was silent for a moment.

Because she did feel scared because of it.

Suddenly she reacted and said:

"That's not right. I said Zhang Ling, why are you still talking about me now? We..."

Yan Yuan hasn't finished speaking yet.

Her father, Zhang Pengtian, appeared by her side at some unknown time?

He raised his hand and slapped Yan Yuan on the neck.

Then the sound of scolding lingered in her ears.

It was said that Yan Yuan’s wings grew hard after not seeing him for a few days.

Ask her if she plans to recognize him as uncle?

Yan Yuan did not dare to offend Zhang Pengtian easily.

That's because she already regards Zhang Pengtian as her father from the bottom of her heart.

Yan Yuan is indeed a bit messy in terms of personal relationships.

But she was determined not to have any disobedience towards Zhang Pengtian, who was like a father.

So Yan Yuan faced his father's scolding.

I just kept apologizing.

now!

Although Yan Yuan was scolded.

But she was very happy inside.

Because she was reminded by her father Zhang Pengtian’s scolding words.

This gave her a reason to continue to appear at Zhang Ling's house in an upright manner.

That is even if the bestie relationship with Zhang Ling has broken off.

But she still has father-daughter love and sisterly love for the sake of her father Zhang Pengtian.

So Yan Yuan was a little excited and took the initiative to lean next to Zhang Ling and put her arms around and said:

"Uncle is right! As long as Sister Zhang Ling is right, I, Yan Yuan, must listen. Sister Zhang Ling, you have to take more care of my sister from now on."

Zhang Ling because of Yan Yuan's expression.

Suddenly, I felt that the hairs all over my body stood up like ice needles.

Then my body trembled.

As if a spring had been installed, she pushed Yan Yuan away from her almost subconsciously.
