Jiang Zheng didn't answer, but looked at Jiang Lichuan with a stern look, as if he was scolding someone.
Jiang Lichuan smiled slightly, his expression not much different from usual.
"Dad, aren't you happy? Secretary Ji said that on your 60th birthday, you want to get together with your old friends. I think this is probably from your heart, so I have been hiding it from you and wanted to give you a surprise.
With."
Although An Ning didn't know the specific disputes between the elders present, she could tell that Jiang Zheng was indeed surprised at first, but it was short-lived. After the surprise, the only thing left was fright.
"well."
Jiang Zheng just said these two words, then turned his eyes, closed his lips and teeth, and his facial expression was very stiff. He looked very angry, as if he never wanted to look at Jiang Lichuan again.
And Li Zhe was still waiting for Jiang Zheng's answer with a smile on his face.
The woman in the wheelchair still had an expressionless face, and her eyes were as calm and cold as an ancient well.
"show……"
After Jiang Zheng shouted out a syllable, his expression was as if he was swallowing a coal of fire in his throat. He struggled painfully before shouting out a complete name, "Shen Xiu."
——That thing... do you really want it back?
Facing the silent inquiry in Jiang Zheng's eyes, the woman in the wheelchair just raised her eyes slightly to look at Jiang Zheng, and then nodded gently.
That expression is like two strangers meeting for the first time. The other person calls your name and you just respond politely.
Jiang Zheng suddenly looked unbelievably shocked. His body trembled, he took a few steps back, and then started to cover his heart with his right hand. Fortunately, someone supported him in time.
Secretary Xun immediately took out the medicine bottle. Ji Qing was holding water while calling someone to call the hospital. Then Jiang Zheng waved his hand and was very insistent. Ji Qing had no choice but to ask someone to call the doctor instead.
Then follow Jiang Zheng's instructions to appease the guests.
Although the host signaled that the banquet should continue and that everyone was reluctant to leave, they were not as interested as before. Their attention had already been focused somewhere, and they just started to sneak glances from time to time.
In one corner, Jiang Zheng's complexion began to soften soon after taking the medicine.
But there was still silence in the air. Everyone seemed to have reached a consensus in this strange atmosphere, so no one spoke. Until Jiang Zheng said that he would go into the room to talk with He Xiu and Li Zhe, Ji Qing said with a panicked look on his face.
He actually shouted to Jiang Zheng in public, "Brother!"
An Ning was slightly surprised.
Even Jiang Zheng frowned slightly at this moment, as if he was blaming Ji Qing, but Ji Qing still smiled gracefully and walked toward Jiang Zheng hastily.
At this time, An Ning heard Xia Chu laugh and say, "What's wrong with Secretary Ji? Are you scared out of your mind?"
Then, I heard someone replying: "My wife always calls me this way at home."
Xia Chu laughed again, glanced at the person, and recognized him as the person next to Ji Qing, but what was his specific name? She had been away for too long and couldn't remember the name, but she still said back to the person, "Now
At home?"
Xia Chu's tone was not very good, and the man didn't say anything more. He just looked at Jiang Yuan with a bad expression, and his eyes seemed to be saying - Young Master, this is the person you brought, just let her be like this.
Talk about your mother?
Xia Chu's smile deepened. Everyone around Ji Qing was able to stretch and retract, and knew when to use what moves to manipulate people.
But it's a pity that she, Xia Chu, is not a genuine female companion of Young Master Jiang Qi, and even if the disgusting blood relationship is ignored, even if she is really Jiang Yuan's girlfriend, she really doesn't want to enter the wealthy Jiang family.
"Oh, it turns out that for Secretary Ji, the most pleasant time in life is when leaders and subordinates appear on the surface, and when they call each other "Brother Jiang" and "Little Sister Ji" in private, they are brother and sister, and they are the shady concubine?"
After Xia Chu finished speaking, he deliberately looked at Jiang Yuan and smiled brightly, "Hey, dear, is that so?"
Jiang Yuan's face was obviously no better looking than before. No matter how much Xia Chu tried to tease him with words, he always thought Xia Chu was joking, and he would hide whenever he could. But now, his face was dark and his eyes were a little cold.
But it was obvious that he was not irrational. He just said to Xia Chu in a serious tone: "You drank too much."
Xia Chu raised her eyebrows, "You don't know how good I am at drinking? Is this expression just for me? Haha... On the contrary, I almost forgot, that's your mother, but, Jiang Xiaoqi, since it's the truth
, is it still unbelievable?"
Jiang Yuan's eyes were filled with anger, but he just said helplessly: "What do you want me to do, little sister?"
Xia Chuyi was startled. She had returned to Beijing when she was eleven or two years old. Because of some things, she had met Jiang Yuan at that time, but she didn't know that he was Ji Qing's son. She played with him for a while.
Yes, Chengri forced him to call her sister, but he only gave in two-thirds of the time under the coercion of her fists, and reluctantly called her "little sister". Later, when their identities were revealed, although their relationship remained the same,
She would bully him from time to time, but she never heard him call her sister again.
So now, after many years, I suddenly heard it, and Xia Chu's eyes flashed, and she felt an unreal feeling.
Although An Ning didn't know what kind of story the words "little sister" had to Xia Chu and Jiang Yuan, looking at their expressions, she vaguely knew something was wrong, especially Xia Chu, who suddenly lost those words in her eyes.
Sharp and sarcastic, but with some sadness of fate, like a kind of mourning for the good times of the past.
An Ning wanted to speak out, but finally pursed her lips. At the same time, she accidentally saw Tang Shaoyan in the crowd.
Looking at Tang Shaoyan's complicated and unclear flickering gaze cast on Xia Chu, it contained too many emotions, some joy and some cold murderous intent.
An Ning began to have a bad premonition and wanted to remind Xia Chu to pay attention to Tang Shaoyan's existence.
However, before she could speak, she heard Jiang Lichuan suddenly say: "Dad, I have good news to tell you!"
Jiang Zheng paused, his eyes cold.
"I thought you already said that."
Jiang Zheng's words obviously meant something.
Jiang Lichuan ignored it, the smile in his eyes was like the spring light in March, and his voice was very warm.
"I mean……"
As Jiang Lichuan spoke, he put An Ning into his arms and said, "You are going to be a grandpa soon."
Jiang Lichuan's voice was neither high nor low, but his words were clear.
Waves of voices began to spread like waves, and someone began to say congratulations.
But An Ning was only surprised.
She knew that her pregnancy would be revealed sooner or later. Her belly was growing day by day. It was a fact that could not be hidden. What's more, why should she hide it?
Especially for the Jiang family. Although the Jiang family does not regard her as one of their own, her legal partner is always named Jiang, and some things cannot be changed.
But she just wanted to let Jiang Lichuan make another announcement at a suitable time, after some things gradually faded away. She thought he had already agreed.
But I didn't expect that Jiang Lichuan would announce it in such a way on such an occasion.
Seeing Jiang Lichuan's cheerful smile at the corners of his eyes and brows, An Ning suddenly couldn't laugh at all.
Is he really sharing the joy of becoming a father?
Or are they telling everyone their determination to be together in this way?
Or is he deliberately trying to make Jiang Zheng's 60th birthday party more 'profound'?
An Ning knew that there were some things that she didn't quite understand and she couldn't make any judgments. For example, what happened between father and son that made father and son not like father and son, but sometimes more like enemies.
However, at this moment, she still couldn't help but feel a sudden feeling in her heart.
This feeling is like falling into a deep pit dug in advance and being used as a tool. It is extremely uncomfortable.
This feeling of peace, until the bustle dissipated and silence lingered in her heart for a long time.
And since Jiang Lichuan pushed the woman in the wheelchair into the scene, the light in his eyes has been shining, thinking he was looking forward to a good show.
An Ning began to feel a little depressed, and she began to have a premonition that the peaceful days she expected would not come, and something beyond her imagination was about to happen.
Jiang Lichuan didn't notice the shadows under her lowered eyes. And she watched him achieve success in the game he had set up by himself. She couldn't toast to him to celebrate, and she simply didn't let herself get in his eyes.
, and was even more afraid that she would start questioning him in public, so she made an excuse to go to the bathroom and left temporarily.
And until she turned around, Jiang Lichuan just nodded without saying a word.
He was like a conspirator who was about to reach the top, welcoming his upcoming victory, but she was not included in that victory.
He has entered a world that she cannot enter, and it seems that he will go further and further.
An Ning was a little panicked and depressed. She wanted to go to the bathroom and adjust herself, but as soon as she came out of the bathroom, she saw Xia Chu waiting outside the door for a long time.
"You should have realized something when you saw me here!"
Xia Chu looked like he was unwilling but forced to appear here.
But An Ning planned to be blind, "What kind of enlightenment? I don't know."
Xia Chu pursed her lips and smiled, knowing that she still had resentment in her heart, but she didn't say anything. She just said: "It's a big place here, and he was afraid that you would get lost alone, so he asked me to take you."
"No matter how powerful I am, I have a mouth. If I get lost, I will ask people."
"Who are you asking?" Xia Chu blinked, "Now the familiar servants are busy cleaning up the aftermath, but there is a man named Lu who has not left yet. He has not left and is waiting outside!
"
Xia Chu looked malicious.
