When all the turmoil subsided and Gu Yanchen was surrounded by everyone and entered the reception hall of Jiangxue Villa, Fu Youzhi had already been sitting leisurely next to the old man of the Jiang family, with a decent smile on his face that a junior should have.
The old man of the Jiang family has a rich background and cannot be offended by anyone. He is half a soldier. Even though he is old, he is still upright. Fu Youzhi also respects him very much.
"Zhizhi, why do you come in so late? The old man won't be able to celebrate many birthdays in the future. You are always busy. It's not easy to celebrate your birthday. You have been in ink for so long."
The old man of the Jiang family said to Fu Youzhi kindly.
"Mr. Jiang is laughing at me. I'm just busy all day long. You don't know the traffic in Beicheng. The roads are almost blocked..."
Fu Youzhi smiled lightly. The unpleasantness outside seemed to her to be a trivial matter. As long as it did not harm her interests in the end, as for the security guard...
It was disrespectful to God, so there was no need for her to take action.
Sure enough, as soon as she sat down, she heard a distant voice, "Miss, help me!" and disappeared into the deepest night in Beicheng.
"Zhizhi," the old man of the Jiang family took Fu Youzhi's hand, kind and kind, full of a strong sense of closeness.
"Come sit next to me."
The older a person gets, the more trust they have in gods and metaphysics, and they seem to be able to tell the difference. Therefore, Mr. Jiang has always been close to Fu Youzhi.
Today is his eighty-first birthday party, and there are not many people who can sit at the main table. Fu Youzhi, a foreigner, still a junior, and a girl, smiled and sat beside the old man of the Jiang family.
.
The people who came were all well-known people in Beicheng. I couldn't help but take a few breaths of cold air.
The next seats are really difficult to arrange.
The Jiang family, big shots, old comrades, pampered juniors...
"Hey, the second son of the Gu family, you are standing there in a daze, staring at me, an old man, and looking at nothing. Come and sit down too!"
Gu Yanchen also grew up under the watch of Mr. Jiang, and was always "militarily trained" by him when he was a child.
If the old man hadn't always told him war stories and taught him how to aim with a toy gun, he probably wouldn't have been able to survive those dark wars.
After what happened twenty years ago, the Jiang family was the first to cut ties with the Gu family. Countless forces, both overt and covert, have been looking for him for many years.
In the Gu family, he only has enemies and no family members. If there are one or two close friends, Mr. Jiang is one of them.
That's why he was willing to attend this hypocritical dinner party hosted by the Jiang family, and was also willing to bring Fu Youzhi to meet this truly virtuous and respected old man.
Gu Yanchen closed his somewhat complicated eyes, smiled, and came to the main table. It happened that there was an empty seat next to Fu Youzhi. Just as he was about to walk over, Mr. Jiang directed Jiang Siye to sit in that seat.
.
Gu Yanchen's murderous eyes roamed around the dining table, and he could only sit down opposite Fu Youzhi. There was an empty seat next to him, so he placed the coat worn by Fu Youzhi on the chair.
Fu Youzhi has been being pulled by Mr. Jiang to ask questions. The messages on her mobile phone have not stopped, and she has not had time to raise her head. If she had raised her head, she would have easily seen the handsome face of her husband, who was so dark that he was dripping with ink...
…
"Gardenia," Mr. Jiang held a piece of Eastern Star Spot for her and said gently and with concern,
"I heard that you were cheated on by that second-generation ancestor Gu Zhijuan? I was so angry that I was in the hospital and lay there for several days. I wanted to just knock that toad to death with a crook."
"Zhizhi, don't be sad. Two-legged toads are hard to find, but there are plenty of three-legged men. What do you think of my Aye?"
Fu Youzhi's hand eating the fish stopped in mid-air. She looked at Mr. Jiang on the left and Jiang Siye on the right, with a small head and a big question mark.
"If you get along with him, my whole Jiang family will be your dowry. Besides, Aye is senior to him. In terms of seniority, that old bastard Gu Zhijuan will have to call you aunt..."
When Fu Youzhi raised his head, he saw his husband's livid face. He was flanked from both sides and faced the enemy head-on. Fu Youzhi felt a little on pins and needles after this meal.
No wonder Mr. Jiang kept telling her to come, who knew he was helping her go on a blind date!
"Haha, Mr. Jiang, no need..." Fu Youzhi stuffed the fish into her mouth in one gulp, her cheeks bulging, and she whispered vaguely,
"I...I'm already married to his uncle..."
"What did the girl say?"
Fu Youzhi's voice was indeed not loud. Jiang Lao was old and obviously didn't hear clearly. Gu Yanchen glanced over with a nervous and uncertain look, feeling a little sour in his heart. Zhizhi probably didn't think he was like this.
Is your husband embarrassed?
Don't want to say it openly?
Gu Yanchen lowered his eyes, rarely, with a bit of unspeakable anxiety.
"Ahem," Fu Youzhi swallowed the fish, took another sip of water, and spoke loudly and clearly in Mandarin, with only affirmation and determination in her tone.
"Don't worry, Mr. Jiang, I've already married his uncle!"
Gu Yanchen's lowered eyes secretly smiled.
Mr. Jiang didn't care and said with a smile,
"Silly boy, I saw the news. Isn't it Gu Lao Er who helped you out? He has never been a womanizer. You are a good girl, so don't waste your time on a little monk who has abstained from sex.
ah."
Gu Yanchen's face looked so bad.
If Mr. Jiang hadn't been too proud, he would have overturned the table long ago.
Fu Youzhi also felt that the air around her was chilly. She shrank her neck and planned to end this ridiculous conversation directly.
"I know Mr. Jiang, but you still love me. Look, what birthday gift did I bring you?"
As she spoke, she took out a jade Guanyin pendant that had been used for incense at the Temple of Wealth for a few days, instantly attracting the attention of many people.
She also breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at her cell phone that kept ringing:
[Mr. Wang: Boss, we found out that the person who runs Jiangjia Real Estate is the Fortune Group!]
[Youyou Zhizhi: Find a way to contact the senior management over there. 】
Fu Youzhi was still giving orders frantically and didn't even bother to eat. However, in the noisy voice, she heard a shy and cute voice from the opposite side with great sensitivity.
"Second uncle..."
Fu Youzhi's hand touching the screen was raised uncontrollably. Sure enough, opposite Gu Yanchen, Jiang Sui, dressed in a hot red dress, lowered her head and called him softly,
"Second uncle, this is my position..."
Jiang Sui pointed to the empty seat next to Gu Yanchen, the seat where Fu Youzhi's thin coat was placed.
"Oh, there's someone here." Gu Yanchen said indifferently, but his eyes inadvertently glanced at Fu Youzhi opposite, who was gradually awakening to a melon-eating state.
"Second uncle, I haven't seen you for twenty years. Suisui misses you very much."
There were many guests, and everyone was sitting. Only Jiang Sui stood with her head lowered. The wealthy lady suddenly lost her composure, biting her lower lip, blushing, and crying a bit.
"That's right. We haven't seen each other for twenty years. Times have changed and people have changed. The most innocent and clean child in the past has also learned to send his dog out to block the door."
Gu Yanchen casually shook the red wine glass, his dark eyes narrowed, as if he could see her heart through this proud skin.
Jiang Siye was facing his family. Seeing Jiang Sui being told by Gu Yanchen that he couldn't even get off the stage, and thinking that it was the old man's birthday party, he couldn't make it too ugly, so he could only stand up and talk to each other again.
"Gu Er, at the door today, it was indeed the security guard who was careless. It was our Jiang family who was in the wrong and made you and Zhizhi suffer. So, why don't Suisui and I apologize to you for drinking together?"
With that said, he raised his wine glass and pointed it at Fu Youzhi.
Jiang Sui also bent slightly to get a glass of red wine, but Gu Yanchen didn't even have time to refuse.
The red wine in her hand accidentally knocked on the table.
With a "crash", half the glass of red wine spilled onto Gu Yanchen's black shirt.
Jiang Sui quickly lowered her head to apologize, pulled Gu Yanchen's clothes and said,
"Second uncle, I will take you to change clothes."
