When Zhong Hao and Ye Junyan walked over, Xu Chengye was actually asking He Yuxiu where Zhong Hao was. Seeing Zhong Hao and Ye Junyan walking over, Xu Chengye smiled and waved to Zhong Hao.
After a simple greeting, Ye Junyan took out a beautiful and exquisite small box from a small bag in her hand, handed it to Xu Ling and said: "Xu Ling, happy birthday, you are very beautiful tonight."
Xu Chengye said that he was not allowed to give gifts, but some people could still make exceptions. For example, Ye Junyan was an exception.
"Thank you, Sister Junyan."
Xu Ling showed a sweet smile and opened Ye Junyan's gift to her.
An exquisite and beautiful jade bracelet, the jade quality is crystal clear and white, which is very consistent with Xu Ling's delicate and clear temperament. Obviously, Ye Junyan must have carefully selected this gift.
He Yuxiu directly helped Xu Ling put the jade bracelet on her wrist. The crystal jade made her fair skin even more pink and attractive.
"Xu Ling, happy birthday."
Zhong Hao also said happy birthday to Xu Ling, and then took her small gift out of his arms.
Seeing Zhong Hao also taking out a gift box, He Yuxiu suddenly said with some dissatisfaction: "Zhong Hao, you can just come, what gifts are you preparing?"
"Aunt, it's just a small gift. I hope Xu Ling will like it." Zhong Hao smiled slightly, then handed the gift in his hand to Xu Ling, and said: "Xu Ling, open it and take a look."
"Um."
Xu Ling responded softly, and there was obviously a bit more expectation in her beautiful eyes full of spiritual energy.
The brocade box was opened, and a beautiful and exquisitely carved crystal appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Two three-dimensionally carved golden fish in the crystal were lifelike, which happened to be Xu Ling's zodiac sign, Pisces.
And the next moment, under the illumination of the light, the crystal seemed to be alive, emitting colorful and bright colors, and it was very beautiful.
"Wow! So beautiful."
Xu Ling's beautiful eyes were suddenly filled with joy, and she held the crystal in her hands, unable to put it down.
Even Ye Junyan's cold beautiful eyes lit up. This crystal is actually very common in some crystal markets. It only costs a few hundred yuan. However, this crystal seems to have some differences from ordinary crystals.
Differently, without any lights installed inside, it can actually emit a bright luster.
Zhong Hao smiled. He couldn't afford expensive gifts, so he could only put some thought into these small gifts.
In fact, this crystal is just an extra layer of electric light. Coupled with the characteristics of the crystal, it will appear particularly bright and charming under the light.
The electric light after being absorbed by the psychic core cannot be distinguished by the naked eye, and will disappear after a while. Zhong Hao is not worried about being seen through by others.
"Zhong Hao, thank you for your gift, I like it very much."
Xu Ling blinked her beautiful, clear eyes and looked at Zhong Hao, her delicate little face filled with a sweet smile.
"As long as you like it, happy birthday."
Zhong Hao responded with a smile. After toasting to Xu Ling and Xu Chengye, Zhong Hao returned to his original position.
Ye Junyan stayed to talk to Xu Ling. She, Xu Ling and Xu Jingyi stood together, like three golden flowers, attracting the attention of the entire banquet hall.
Seeing Xu Ling happily accepting the gift from Zhong Hao, and Xu Chengye talking and laughing with Zhong Hao, Mu Lingyun, who had been paying attention to Zhong Hao from a distance, almost completely collapsed at this moment.
All this has once again exceeded the limit of his endurance. He originally thought that Zhong Hao and Xu Jingyi had a good relationship, but he never thought that Zhong Hao actually knew Xu Chengye.
What makes Mu Lingyun most incredible is that He Yuxiu, the wife of the governor, has a very good attitude towards Zhong Hao...
"Ling Yun, did we do something wrong?"
Ye Qian was already a little numb, and he asked Mu Lingyun in a daze.
In her heart, she was already filled with regrets, so regretful that her intestines were knotted.
"Maybe it's really wrong. I didn't expect that he would hide it so deeply..." Mu Lingyun's tone was a bit labored.
Whether it is the Ye family, Xu Chengye or He Rui, basically being able to curry favor with anyone is a very, very big help to the Mu family.
And now...
Mu Lingyun didn't dare to imagine...
Any one of these three major forces can easily crush the Mu family into pieces.
Mu Ziran stood aside with a tight face. She had no regrets. Her remaining pride prevented her from regretting it.
In her opinion, Zhong Hao could only be blamed for all this. Zhong Hao had hidden it so deeply that everything was Zhong Hao's fault.
In fact, Mu Lingyun and the others misunderstood Zhong Hao, and all of this was caused by themselves. If they had not driven Zhong Hao out of the Mu family, it would have been impossible for all of this to happen now.
Of course, Mu Lingyun and the others didn't know this.
"Ling Yun, what should we do now, if he..." Ye Qian hesitated, she wanted to say but couldn't, but her meaning was very obvious.
"What else can be done...?"
Mu Lingyun responded with some difficulty, but it was very difficult to say a few simple words.
And his eyes had already turned to Zhong Hao, as if he had made some decision.
"Zhong Hao, someone is coming towards you."
Zhong Hao then returned to the sofa and sat down. Dao Feng, who was standing on one side, suddenly said something to Zhong Hao.
"oh."
After listening to what Dao Feng said, Zhong Hao responded and looked back. Not far behind him, Mu Lingyun, Ye Qian and Mu Ziran's family were walking towards him.
Seeing Zhong Hao's gaze, Mu Lingyun's thin and gentle face quickly showed a smile, and there was already a bit of flattery in the smile.
Ye Qian was smiling beside her, as if her mother-in-law had seen her beloved son-in-law.
Mu Ziran seemed to want to laugh, but the pride in her heart prevented her from laughing, and she turned her face away.
Seeing Mu Lingyun and Ye Qian's couple like that, Zhong Hao was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face.
Some things in this world change really fast. In the morning, Mu Lingyun was still threatening him with arrogance, but now he had a flattering smile, just like the father and son Wang Kun and Wang Hongzhi.
In the morning, I look like an uncle, and in the evening, I look like a grandson. This change of role can definitely be described as ups and downs.
Mu Lingyun and the others strode over. Mu Lingyun sat down alone opposite Zhong Hao, while Ye Qian and Mu Ziran stood behind him.
After sitting down, Mu Lingyun said to Zhong Hao with an apologetic look: "Zhong Hao, Zi Ran just told me that what happened that night was a misunderstanding. I'm really sorry."
Saying that, Mu Lingyun quickly winked at Mu Ziran, obviously wanting Mu Ziran and Zhong Hao to apologize.
Mu Ziran gritted his teeth, the pride in his heart fighting for the survival of his family.
However, if an apology is not made, the future fate of the Mu family may be troubled.
Pride, self-esteem...
Mu Ziran closed her mouth tightly, guarding the last bit of pride. Although she wanted to say sorry to Zhong Hao, she couldn't say it out.
But this persistence is gradually weakening.
"Zi Ran!"
Seeing Mu Ziran acting like this, Mu Lingyun's tone was suddenly filled with anger and even harshness.
Ye Qian glared at Mu Ziran angrily, and reached out to pinch Mu Ziran's waist.
"Damn girl, please speak quickly..."
Although Ye Qian usually treasures her daughter, at such a critical moment, she can only put aside this kind of love and affection.
Mu Ziran had actually planned to say it, but seeing Mu Lingyun and Ye Qian acting like this, the pride left in her heart suddenly became extremely strong, and she closed her little mouth tighter.
And between her beautiful eyes, tears instantly filled her eyes, but she tried not to flow out.
The little bit of pride and self-esteem in her heart did not allow her to cry in front of Zhong Hao.
Watching the Mu family's performance, Zhong Hao suddenly had the urge to laugh.
But he didn't laugh, he just watched this scene quietly. He was even very curious about whether Mu Ziran, a woman who had been proud to the core since she was a child, would say sorry to him.
Seeing Zhong Hao acting like this, Mu Lingyun naturally became even more angry.
"Zi Ran, it's already this time, are you still disobedient?" Mu Lingyun stood up from the sofa and raised his hand, as if he would slap him at any time.
Ye Qian pinched harder with her fingers, and her mean face became very obvious at this time.
Mu Ziran looked at her parents with tearful eyes, then glanced at Zhong Hao, and two tears finally fell from her eyes.
"You don't need to say it. Even if you say sorry, it's of no use. Do you think I will forgive you?"
At this moment, Zhong Hao spoke.
His words were very crisp and direct, and in one sentence, all opportunities were blocked.
