Xiao Wenyue pulled up a chair, and the others turned to look at Ye Chen. Of course, Li Jingjing still looked indifferent and regarded Ye Chen as nothing, while Xiao Lin had a stern look and just nodded at Ye Chen.
He nodded and turned around to continue chatting with the strange young man.
As for the strange young man, he never even turned around and paid no attention to Ye Chen. With his status, this kind of "cat and dog" was indeed not worthy of his attention.
Ye Chen didn't care. Just as he was about to sit down, a person suddenly came from the direction of the bathroom. When he saw Ye Chen, the person stopped and his eyes were complicated.
"Brother Ye Chen?"
Ye Chen looked up and saw Gu Mengyao, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, standing not far away and staring at her.
After not seeing each other for nearly two months, Gu Mengyao was very different from her school days. In the past, she always wore school uniforms or simple sportswear. Although she was naturally beautiful, she always lacked a bit of nobility.
But now she is wearing a plain evening dress, with delicate light makeup on her face, and her temperament has taken on a completely new look, as if she has become a different person. Even Xiao Wenyue has been compared to her.
Ye Chen's eyes were calm and he just smiled slightly.
"Xiao Gu, long time no see, just call me Ye Chen!"
Gu Mengyao stayed where she was, with mixed feelings in her heart.
When she met Ye Chen again, she subconsciously called out "Brother Ye Chen", but she didn't expect Ye Chen to respond like this.
"From now on, there will be no more 'brother Ye Chen' and no more 'girl'!"
Thinking of what Ye Chen said that day in the "Water World", she felt depressed.
It took a long time for her to react, calm down, and whispered: "Long time no see, Ye Chen!"
There are two words missing, but the relationship between them is one day and one place.
The strange young man who was chatting with Xiao Lin was secretly paying attention to the situation here although he was chatting.
Seeing Gu Mengyao's lost look, he immediately frowned and looked at Ye Chen with a hint of gloom in his eyes.
"What is the relationship between this kid and Mengyao?"
Gu Mengyao sat next to the young man, raising her head to look at Ye Chen from time to time, but found that Ye Chen had not paid attention to her the whole time, and sighed secretly.
She and Ye Chen used to be the best playmates, as close as brothers and sisters, but now they are strangers. She feels happy but also helpless.
If a person wants to climb higher and stand farther, she needs to give up some things. For example, her friends and the young man who came with her are of great significance to her life, and Ye Chen
, has undoubtedly become the part she wants to give up.
"This brother, this is the first time we meet. Let me get to know you. My name is Lin Shaobin. I am Mengyao's friend!"
The young man, Lin Shaobin, suddenly stood up and extended his hand to Ye Chen, which made the others' expressions change slightly.
Lin Shaobin is the eldest among all the people present. He has a profound background. If you really want to talk about it, his status is even higher than that of Xu Zun who he met in the "Water World". Even Xiao Lin has to deal with it.
He was respectful and called "Master Bin".
Such a person would actually take the initiative to get to know Ye Chen?
Lin Shaobin stretched out his hand towards Ye Chen. He didn't want to get acquainted with Ye Chen, but he just wanted to find out about Ye Chen's details.
Half a month ago, he met Gu Mengyao at Tianfu Entertainment's celebration banquet. He was immediately shocked and launched a pursuit offensive. Although Gu Mengyao did not agree, the two of them had always been getting along as friends and were in an ambiguous stage.
But the sudden appearance of Ye Chen made Gu Mengyao show such a distraught expression for the first time, and he immediately felt a sense of crisis.
"Ye Chen!"
Ye Chen didn't reach out and just said his name lightly.
Lin Shaobin's expression suddenly changed. Xiao Lin, who was sitting in the main seat, also frowned and immediately shouted: "Ye Chen, Mr. Bin wants to shake your hand. The response is the most basic courtesy!"
What is Lin Shaobin's identity? He is the only son of Boss Lin in southern Sichuan. In ancient times, this person was like a crown prince. Ye Chen actually ignored his handshake. Isn't this giving them something to do?
Xiao Wenyue frowned slightly and wanted to make a few remarks, but Ye Chen had already spoken lightly.
"Oh, sorry, I'm not in the habit of shaking hands with people!"
His response made everyone in Xiao Lin change their expressions. Didn't this make it clear that he was not giving Lin Shaobin face?
The atmosphere condensed for a long time, and Lin Shaobin retracted his palm with an inexplicable smile on his face.
"Ye Chen, that's interesting!"
Hearing Lin Shaobin's tone, Chu Chenguang laughed heartily on the sidelines. The more Ye Chen was rude to Lin Shaobin, the happier he became.
Lin Shaobin was much taller than him, and based on his understanding, Lin Shaobin had always been narrow-minded. Ye Chen had lost his face in front of everyone. It seemed that he had no reaction, but in fact he had already remembered Ye Chen.
In his heart, as long as there is a chance, Lin Shaobin will never let go of the opportunity to trample on Ye Chen.
Xiao Wenyue shook her head secretly. Ye Chen always seemed to have his own way. It was the same when she first met Chu Chenguang, and it was the same now with Lin Shaobin. She no longer knew how to communicate with Ye Chen, and she didn't even want to pay attention to similar things.
Li Jingjing was gloating about his misfortune. The more Ye Chen tried to die, the happier she became.
Only Li Qiuxia was not surprised at all by Ye Chen's performance.
Just kidding, the dignified Mr. Ye from Sichuan Province suppressed all the heroes and commanded the underground of Sichuan Province. Even Lin Shaobin's father was frightened when facing Ye Chen. He was as frightened as a quail. How could he dare to shake hands with Ye Chen?
For someone like Lin Shaobin, who is not even as high as his father, what qualifications do he have to shake hands with Ye Chen?
"Master Bin, I'm sorry, people from the countryside are not very sensible. Let's have a drink later to make amends to you!"
Xiao Lin snorted coldly in Ye Chen's direction, then turned to Lin Shaobin with an apologetic smile.
"I don't care about small things!"
Lin Shaobin smiled and shook his head, but he had long secretly remembered Ye Chen in his heart.
Because of this little episode between Ye Chen and Lin Shaobin, Ye Chen suddenly became the one isolated by everyone again. He sat alone at the other end of the long table, looking out of place, and no one greeted him.
"Brother Ye, eat some fruit!"
Suddenly, a gust of fragrant wind came, and a plate of watermelon was handed to Ye Chen.
Li Qiuxia smiled and sat next to Ye Chen.
This scene made the others slightly startled. No one had thought that Li Qiuxia, who had made the lowest comment to Ye Chen during that market climbing trip, would actually take the initiative to talk to Ye Chen.
Chu Chenguang also found it incredible. He knew very well that Li Qiuxia would never get close to someone who was of no benefit or use. But now, she seemed to be very attentive to Ye Chen, which he couldn't understand.
"By the way, it seems that Ye Chen is working for Wu Guangfu, so she met Ye Chen and exchanged a few words to win people over!"
Soon, he came to his senses, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable it became. Otherwise, what other reason would have allowed Li Qiuxia, who had her eyes high above her head, to take the initiative to approach Ye Chen?
As for Lin Shaobin, he just glanced at Ye Chen and then looked away. Although Li Qiuxia was Wu Guangfu's bedmate, she was not a bit weaker than him in terms of status. He would not pay attention to anyone who was close to Li Qiuxia.
.
Ye Chen casually took a piece of watermelon and threw it into his mouth. He was straightforward and forthright, but Xiao Lin was secretly unhappy. In front of Lin Shaobin, Ye Chen was too rude.
After more than ten minutes, He Huimin brought the last few dishes to the table.
She first said hello to Lin Shaobin, and then turned to Ye Chen, her brows becoming a little more serious.
"Xiaochen, you finally came to Aunt He's house!"
"Come, follow me to the balcony, Aunt He has something to say to you!"
Ye Chen nodded and followed He Huimin to the balcony on the second floor. He Huimin suddenly patted Ye Chen on the shoulder, her eyes full of care for the younger generation.
