It is said that the party was held in a villa not far from the city gate.
There is an estate owned by the Zhou family, who is also a wealthy family in Qingzhou, and the initiator of this gathering is the eldest son of the Zhou family, Zhou Tingsheng.
Since it was the eldest son of the Zhou family who initiated the invitation, and the theme was to help the eldest daughter of the Liu family, it was natural that this gathering would become the focus of the entire Qingzhou City.
After all, these two are the successors of wealthy families, and their status and status are extraordinary. Not to mention being able to marry into a wealthy family or win a beautiful woman, even if they can establish some friendship with these two people, they will have some opportunities in the future.
Very useful.
What's more, the gathering of these two people will naturally be accompanied by people, and those who can come must be young men or young ladies from wealthy families in Qingzhou City.
In short, this villa party can be said to be the most top-notch upper-class dinner party in Qingzhou City.
In such an occasion, anything is possible.
Therefore, there must be many people who want to come.
Moreover, this is also the reason why Ye Qian wants to come.
Speaking of protecting Liu Qingrou, this is just one of them. What Ye Qian really wants is to get in touch with the young ladies from the rich and famous families in Qingzhou City. Maybe there is something he can use among them. When the time comes, together,
Deal with the Song family.
With Ye Qian in the carriage, Liu Qingrou couldn't relax. After returning to the Liu family, she returned to the smart and capable eldest daughter of the Liu family, and had to maintain a somewhat dignified appearance.
However, this seemed to have no effect on Ye Qian.
After this guy got on the carriage, he went to the carriage compartment with familiarity and pulled out small drawers. In fact, there were some snacks such as dried fruits and dried meats. After all, Liu Qingrou was sometimes inconvenient on the road.
When you eat, just eat some of these.
Besides, no matter what status a girl is in, her love for snacks will never change.
Ye Qian touched some dried meat and ate it, and handed some to Liu Qingrou. Liu Qingrou didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Did this guy really not regard him as an outsider?
However, looking at Ye Qian's natural and unpretentious appearance, Liu Qingrou felt extremely relaxed.
She could imagine that if the other young men in Qingzhou City were in the same room with her at this time, they would be sitting upright and acting very gentlemanly, or they would pretend to be chic and suave and talk about humorous things. Everything.
Everything is just to leave some good impression in her heart.
But this person in front of me... let alone a good impression, if he were a young lady, I would probably kick him down...
But Liu Qingrou felt that this was very good. At least she could relax a little and not have to weigh the pros and cons for a long time without saying a word.
Not long after, Ye Qian probably felt that the food was not enough, and he even took out a bottle of wine. In fact, since Liu Qingrou's carriage had prepared food, there was naturally also something to drink. But that was more like
Ye Qian doesn't like fruit juice wine very much, but he prefers this kind of pure and refreshing spirits.
He found a cup, drank a drink, smacked his lips, and enjoyed it very much.
Liu Qingrou, who was on the side, originally planned to watch, but the wine Ye Qian brought out was no ordinary wine. It was filled with fine wines he had collected from traveling around the world, and most of them were not from the Lihuo Realm.
Liu Qingrou smelled it for a while and felt that the wine was extremely fragrant and far different from what she had drunk in the past. In fact, on the way back to Qingzhou, she also saw Ye Qian drinking it, but at that time he was being chased.
She wasn't in the mood to care about the wine.
But now, she couldn't help but feel a little curious, and said in surprise: "Mr. Ye, what kind of wine are you drinking? I seem to have never seen it before!"
Ye Qian chuckled and said: "It would be strange if you had seen it before. This wine, in terms of value, is priceless in the Lihuo Realm."
Liu Qingrou couldn't help pouting. She was used to the big world. What kind of wine could be called a priceless treasure? She didn't admit that there was such a thing. After all, wine was brewed for people to drink. How could it be without it?
Price? But what Ye Qian said is right. The wine in his hand is the only one in Lihuo Realm...
"Come on, have a taste." Ye Qian took out another cup and handed it to Liu Qingrou as if he was the owner of the carriage.
Liu Qingrou was not like her mother-in-law. After taking it, she took a sip. After taking this sip, she immediately covered her mouth, hissed and exclaimed: "This... this wine is so strong!"
"Haha, how can you call a drink if it's not strong?" Ye Qian laughed and drank another drink.
Seeing how generously he drank, Liu Qingrou refused to lag behind. She stopped sipping this time and drank half the glass. She couldn't hold it back and started coughing. Ye Qian laughed and patted her on the back.
He smiled and said, "Don't be so hasty when you drink it for the first time. Wait until you get used to it before you drink it in big sips. Let me tell you, this kind of strong drink will be boring in one sip!"
Liu Qingrou waited until her breath stabilized before asking: "What does it mean to be bored?"
"Well, a boring gulp means... drink it all up in one gulp. There is a saying that if you have a deep feeling, you will feel stuffy in one gulp! It means that if I drink with you, after raising the glass, drinking it all up in one gulp will be interesting, bit by bit.
If you drink, then your friendship is not enough." Ye Qian laughed.
"This is too difficult..." Liu Qingrou didn't try to take a breath, she felt a little dizzy now.
In fact, the eldest lady's cheeks are already a little red at the moment. Ye Qian dares to bet that if he can coax this eldest lady to drink two drinks, then he can do whatever he wants to this eldest lady...
In the end, Liu Qingrou drank the glass of wine forcefully, put down the glass, and rested silently leaning on the car. It was really hard to accept this kind of strong drink for the first time...
Ye Qian ignored her and just ate and drank on his own. It wasn't that far along the way. It took more than an hour of walking and the sun was almost noon before they arrived at the villa.
When the Liu family's carriage arrived, many people naturally came to greet it. After all, the protagonist of this gathering was Liu Qingrou.
The young ladies from the Zhou family, the Wang family, and all the major forces in Qingzhou City were waiting at the entrance of the villa.
It's not that Liu Qingrou's face is so huge, but that this time it is to help Liu Qingrou clean up her dust. Everyone is willing to do it to save face. After all, it doesn't cost money, right?
"We are a flower in Qingzhou City. We encountered disaster this time when we went out, but we have returned safely. Congratulations!" A young man waving a feather fan stood in the first place with a smile. It was Zhou Tingsheng, the eldest son of the Zhou family. He
He came to the carriage door with a smile and said: "Miss Qingrou, this is..."
As he was talking, the curtain of the carriage suddenly opened, and a head stuck out. It turned out to be a man!
"Uh..." Is there a mistake? This is not Miss Qingrou's carriage? At this moment, everyone had the same idea.
But this guy immediately jumped off the carriage and exclaimed in surprise: "Wow, there are so many people? Miss, you are so proud!"
As he said that, he stretched out his hand and helped someone down.
This is a beautiful and flawless woman, with impeccable clothing and appearance. The most rare thing is that she has a touch of bright red on her face, which makes her even more charming.
It was Liu Qingrou.
However, all the people who came to greet him fell silent for a moment. There were only two question marks in everyone's mind, circling and intertwining.
There is actually a man on Liu Qingrou's carriage. Who is this guy? He can actually get on Liu Qingrou's carriage?
What happened to Liu Qingrou? She, who had always been cool and dignified, turned red with shame, and was helpless to let this man help her get out of the carriage? In such a shocking scene, everyone was silent. Liu Qingrou naturally noticed that she
Although I was a little dizzy after drinking a glass of strong wine, I was still not drunk. I knew something was wrong, so I quickly said: "Thank you all, I just feel a little uncomfortable..."
Others reluctantly accepted her explanation. If it was because of physical discomfort, there would be someone to take care of her and be reasonable, but it was a bit surprising that it was a man.
Zhou Tingsheng immediately stepped forward, wanting to help Liu Qingrou, and asked with concern: "Qingrou, what's wrong?"
Seeing that he was coming to help her, Liu Qingrou wanted to avoid him, but unexpectedly, Ye Qian stepped forward and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's your first time, it's always like this."
"ah?"
Suddenly, their jaws dropped, and everyone was stunned. The first... first time? Liu Qingrou's first time, was she taken away by this guy on the carriage?
No wonder Liu Qingrou looked so weak and weak, and there was still a blush on her face.
Oh my god, why didn’t I realize before that this eldest lady of the Liu family was so open-minded? She was just... on the carriage.
Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, as if the sky was falling, Liu Qingrou wanted to kick Ye Qian away. She hurriedly explained: "I just drank some wine, the wine was too strong..."
It was okay if she didn't explain. Once she explained, everyone else secretly pouted and said, "Drink? What kind of wine can be so strong? It's okay if you drink a lot. However, even Zhou Tingsheng, who was standing nearest, only smelled a little bit of it."
There is a slight smell of alcohol, and most of it comes from that guy Ye Qian.
"Uh-huh..." Zhou Tingsheng pulled his stiff face and forced a smile: "Haha, it seems that Qingrou is not satisfied with my banquet this time. She actually drank on the way..."
"hehe……"
"Ha ha……"
The people next to him laughed dryly and agreed, but this burst of embarrassing laughter made the atmosphere even more awkward.
Liu Qingrou wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl under, but she found that Ye Qian looked like he had nothing to do with himself and was watching the fun. She couldn't help pinching him and said bitterly: "Is it funny? What are you talking about?
?”
"What am I talking about? This is indeed the first time for you to drink such strong wine. If it were their first time, it would be different." Ye Qian said innocently.
Liu Qingrou felt a little ashamed, so she went over to the kitchen and said, "Why, are you just going to hold a banquet here?"
Only then did Zhou Tingsheng come to his senses, and he quickly stretched out his hand and said: "Haha, please come quickly, everyone is almost here, and we are just waiting for you, the protagonist..."
