Ouyang Yiman's face turned red. Now that those old things were brought up again, she felt ashamed.
In Murong Manor.
Ouyang Yiman stepped into the courtyard again, and layers of memories from her childhood appeared in front of her eyes. When she walked into the room, her room was not tidied. Dai Yuxiao's meaning was obvious.
Looking at the bedroom, she hesitated.
"Manman, go back to your bedroom? We know you are jet lagged, so we have a good rest. When you wake up, we will prepare delicious food for you." Dai Yuxiao pushed her into Mu Niancheng's bedroom without hesitation.
.
Standing in the bedroom, she looked around, walked to the cabinet containing her clothes, opened it and saw that everything was still the same as before.
He didn't clear it out, and she began to feel excited again. Maybe she really had something to do.
Lying on the bed, I fell asleep quickly.
In Dai Yuxiao's bedroom upstairs.
Mu Nianxue knocked on the door and walked in. Seeing Dai Yuxiao crying secretly, she quickly walked over, gently put her arm around her shoulders, and whispered, "Mommy, now that Manman is back, we have to tell her this
Any news? And my brother hasn’t come back yet, what should we do?”
Dai Yuxiao wiped the tears from her eyes and said with a choked voice, "Xiaoxue, let's not talk about it for now. We can hide it as long as we can. I will inform your brother that he will be back tomorrow night, and there are some
I need to explain things clearly to him."
"Mommy, I hope Manman can get through this."
Mu Nianxue's brows furrowed. A touch of sadness appeared in her eyes.
"Stay with her more and don't let her think too much." Dai Yuxiao nodded and hugged Mu Nianxue. This daughter is the most caring to her and understands what she is thinking, so now that I think about it, the one who loves her parents the most is,
Maybe there is only a daughter.
The next night.
A party was held in Murong Manor, and the people were mainly close friends.
Luo Xiaoyin was also invited, and now she has her own baby. When she sees Mu Nianxue, she still can't help but come over and pinch her little face.
Ouyang Yiman stayed in the bedroom, standing in the ### room, looking at herself in the mirror. The lines all over her body were beautiful and convex, and every part of her body was so white and flawless that people dared not look directly at it.
She put on the clothes Dai Yuxiao gave her. It was a white princess gauze dress. She was dressed so grandly that she didn't know what kind of party it was. Mu Nianxue told her that it was just a party of some friends, so she
Don't be nervous, but I still feel uneasy.
After she got dressed, she walked out of the bedroom.
"Manman, you are so beautiful. This white gauze dress really matches your skin tone. You look like a beautiful bride." Mu Nianxue had been waiting outside the door, and when she saw her coming out, she hurried away.
Come here and whisper.
She looked around and hit Mu Nianxue's arm angrily, "Sister Xue, you really know how to change your joke. It's just an evening dress. Why does it involve the wedding?"
"This is only a matter of time. Moreover, there is also a major news to be announced tonight, which is definitely good news for you."
Chatting and laughing, the two walked to the back garden together, where the party was held tonight.
The lights dimly dimmed, and a few people came sparsely. It was still dusk, so it was still early.
Ouyang Yiman became a little impatient in the crowd. Dai Yuxiao told her that Mu Niancheng would be back tonight, but so far, there is still no trace of him.
"Don't worry, brother will be back." Mu Nianxue came from behind and comforted her.
Sure enough, not long after, Mu Niancheng drove back. When Ouyang Yiman heard the sound of the car, her entire attention was focused on the front yard. She wanted to talk to him.
Seeing that no one noticed her, she hurried to the front yard.
"Mommy, what are you talking about? Are you going to announce my engagement to him tonight? Impossible." When she walked into the living room, Ouyang Yiman heard a deep and magnetic male voice from upstairs.
She was startled, and vaguely felt that it had something to do with herself. She did not go upstairs, but stood at the corner of the stairs and paid attention to the movement above.
"Chengcheng, I have said long ago that Manman is your partner in this life. Maybe you have had women in the past two years, but those are just for entertainment and will not enter the door of our Mu family. The only one in the Mu family is
What I admit is Manman, and no one can change this fact."
Dai Yuxiao's voice contained displeasure as she tried her best to explain.
"Mommy, I have made up my mind since I was a child that the person I want to marry must have a good family background, and if I like her, I never thought that she would become my wife."
Mu Niancheng finished speaking anxiously and was about to leave.
Dai Yuxiao's voice was slightly choked and she said, "Chengcheng, if you dare to leave, then don't recognize me as your mommy in the future."
Ouyang Yiman stared blankly at the stairs in front of her, which looked like a long mountain road. There stood a tower that was beyond her reach, but her legs seemed to be filled with lead worth a thousand pieces of gold and could not be lifted up.
Turning around, she fled to the bedroom. She didn't dare to listen anymore. If she continued to listen, she might not be able to face everyone.
In the quiet bedroom, she was so sad that she couldn't help herself.
After an unknown amount of time, the bedroom was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers. The surroundings were very quiet, so quiet that I could almost hear her breathing.
"Manman, Manman. Are you there? Manman." There was a knock on the door, and Dai Yuxiao stood outside the door and asked.
Ouyang Yiman opened the door and stood at the door with a smile. She called out softly, "Auntie."
"Why are you hiding here alone? You are the protagonist of tonight's party, how can you do it if you don't go?" Dai Yuxiao carefully observed the expression on her face, and saw that there was nothing unusual, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
I couldn't find her just now, and when I heard Mu Nianxue say that she had gone back to her room, I was shocked. It would be bad if I heard the conversation between mother and son.
Now it seems that I feel a little relieved.
"I was a little dizzy just now, so I came back to rest for a while, and unexpectedly fell asleep. Fortunately, auntie, you came to call me. Is Brother Chengcheng back?"
Ouyang Yiman always had a comfortable smile on her face. She took Dai Yuxiao's arm and walked out comfortably, talking affectionately as she walked.
"I'm back. I'm back early in the morning. Don't worry."
Dai Yuxiao patted her hand, and the two of them walked to the back garden.
The back garden has been re-decorated. After the sky has completely darkened, under the light and shadow of various neon lights pulled up all around, the entire party looks blurry and flickering.
A large golden crystal lamp radiates from the ground to the surroundings in the middle, like a sparkling star. The entire back garden seems like daytime, but it is a little more hazy and dreamy than daytime.
Champagne and red wine are arranged in a pyramid shape, and are placed on both sides. At this time, the guests are in the clouds, surrounded by the fragrance of clothes. The rich young men and wealthy ladies in their youth are all wearing luxurious dresses.
, shuttled among the crowd.
Mu Niancheng was standing in a corner at this time.
He didn't like these social interactions, but tonight he had to do this.
The moment Ouyang Yiman stepped into the back garden, his eyes quickly passed over all the people, and his eyes naturally fell on her.
As expected, two years have engraved maturity and stability on his body. Apart from the coldness of his handsome face, it has not changed at all. It has also added some arrogance and nobility. Although he is standing at this moment,
Even in the dark, he is an unconditional luminous person.
There were women around him constantly trying to strike up a conversation, but maybe they were forced by his strong aura. Those people just bowed their heads in greeting and then turned around and left.
Mu Niancheng is still his brother Chengcheng. Although he is aloof and arrogant, does not talk to others, and is even indifferent to her, he is like this to all women, so she should rest assured.
"Manman, would you like to go over and say hello to Chengcheng?" Dai Yuxiao seemed to understand her thoughts and asked with a smile.
"Auntie, can I do it now?" Ouyang Yiman hesitated, completely dissatisfied with Xiaojiabiyu's well-behaved behavior, and looking in Dai Yuxiao's eyes, she felt distressed.
"Silly girl, of course. You are the princess tonight. No one else is as beautiful as you. How could there be anything wrong with the girl who was chosen by the aunt herself?" Dai Yuxiao straightened the small crystal flower she sent.
, quietly pinched her earlobe and said encouragingly.
Ouyang Yiman nodded, looked back at Mu Niancheng, and walked over.
"Master Mu, how have you been lately?" Qu Liufeng walked around Mu Niancheng from the darkness, glanced back at Ouyang Yiman who was walking across the lawn, turned to look at Mu Niancheng, and put out the cigar in his hand.
Yes, asked.
"Liu Yun, you also know my business, don't you feel tired after asking me so much?" Mu Niancheng leaned against a magnolia tree, glanced at Qu Liufeng mockingly, and asked casually.
"If you say one more thing, I won't feel tired. It's just that you talk too little, so I feel tired. I heard that little girl Ouyang is back. How about it? Is your wedding date approaching? I won't be long.
I just found out before now that she is your childhood sweetheart."
"Then stay away from her. Besides, there is no shortage of girls like this around you." Mu Niancheng stood up anxiously. He didn't want to talk to Qu Liufeng about any issues about Ouyang Yiman because he felt it was unnecessary, and tonight's meeting
The thing upset him.
"But I just fell in love with her." Qu Liufeng didn't mean to back down at all. He took a step forward and followed behind him and said:
"I didn't get serious before because she was still studying abroad and we weren't settled yet, so I didn't officially start pursuing her. Now that she's back, I think I should start another life."
"What you want is your business. Don't talk about it in front of me, because what you said has nothing to do with me." Mu Niancheng stopped and did not look back. His slightly stiff back showed no doubt.
The power. There was no room for relaxation in the cold and trembling voice.
After saying that, walk forward.
"Brother Chengcheng. Brother Chengcheng." Ouyang Yiman saw that he was about to leave just after he arrived, so he shouted quickly, holding up his skirt and running this way.
Mu Niancheng stopped and looked at the crowd in front of him, as if suppressing something. It wasn't until Ouyang Yiman climbed onto his arm that he turned to look at her, with a touch of alienation in his cold eyes.
"You're back?" The words were light and masculine, and to Ouyang Yiman's ears, they were like music and a dream. She was stunned, nodded, and raised her head to look into his eyes. Is all this true?
?
This was the first time in her memory that he looked at her like this. Could it be that everything she heard just now was all her imagination? She shook her head and pinched herself.
"Ouyang, why don't you say hello when you see me? We are acquaintances, right?" Qu Liufeng ignored her hand holding Mu Niancheng's arm, stood behind her, and asked slyly.
Ouyang Yiman blushed, then turned around in a good mood, looked at Qu Liufeng, and raised a faint smile, "I'm sorry, I only noticed brother Chengcheng just now, so I didn't see you, but for a flower like you
Young Master, why do you care about me being an acquaintance? Your acquaintances here will be spread throughout the entire party, right?"
After saying that, he glanced at everything around him symbolically, with a playful look in his eyes.
Mu Niancheng curled her lips, the little witch had not changed her temper yet.
"Dear friends and guests, we are holding this small gathering in the humble house tonight because Manman is returning to China after completing her studies. Therefore, her marriage to Chengcheng will also be put on the agenda. Tonight, I will use this wedding banquet to announce something.
As for the matter, in ten days, Chengcheng and Manman’s engagement banquet will be held, and everyone is welcome to join us at that time.”
Mu Lengrui and Dai Yuxiao stood at the main seat and announced to everyone. For a moment, everyone was in an uproar.
