Chapter 178: We will entertain two more people then
"Nobunaga, you misunderstood."
If it were in the past, Lin Zengxian would definitely ask Hanyu Nobunaga to apologize to Nai Minami, but now, he can only restrain his subconscious frown and ask Hanyu Nobunaga not to continue to make mistakes.
"This is Ms. Nai from Mitsui."
He raised his hand and made a gesture to his side. Lin Zengxian didn't have any expression, nor did he have one.
After all, the person in front of him was Airi's younger brother. He couldn't bear to say harsh words, and the person beside him was his friend and someone younger than him. He couldn't allow Nobunaga to offend him unintentionally.
Knowing that life must go on, life must go on, but Lin Zengxian still subconsciously regards Hanyu Nobunaga as his brother-in-law.
"Hello, I am Hanyu Nobunaga."
The almost paranoid hatred for Lin Zengxian does not conflict with the social etiquette for other people. Hanyu Nobunaga, who is destined to inherit the Hanyu family, said hello in a down-to-earth manner.
It can be seen that these two people have a friendship, and it can also be seen that these two people have no relationship between men and women. Hanyu Nobunaga just wants to disgust Lin Zengxian.
"Hello, my name is Najing Nan."
Mingjing Nan first glanced at Lin Zengxian, and then returned the greeting. Mingjing Nan noticed the strangeness of the atmosphere.
"I thought you forgot about my sister so quickly."
When he walked up to Lin Zengxian, Hanyu Nobunaga sneered and looked coldly.
He wanted to see this person feel discomfort and pain, even just a little bit.
"Nobunaga, today is a good day for the baby and a good day for the Uesugi family. Do you have to be like this?"
Lowering his eyes, Lin Zengxian calmed down his aura, became quiet and spoke slowly.
"Of course not. It's not a good day for you. I won't fail to give Uesugi Maaya-san some face."
After taking a look at Nai Nan, who had not moved even half a step and was standing next to Lin Zengxian, Hanyu Nobunaga glanced at Lin Zengxian, raised his index finger, and poked his shoulder lightly.
"My sister died like that in front of you. I wonder if your future new girlfriend will have a good life like today, or will she die under your scalpel in the same way?"
Hanyu Nobunaga's fingertips rested on Lin Zengxian's shoulder, and his knuckles turned white from too much force.
Lin Zengxian's hands hung by his sides without any effort.
Naijing Nan's hands were put into his sleeves at some point, and his fingers were clenched into the palms of his hands, and his knuckles were shaking from too much force.
The snowflakes were like fine feathers, rubbing into every crevice in the world and forming a blanket, covering up the sounds in the backyard.
"Nobunaga?"
After a brief silence, Saito Maaya's voice dispersed the snowflakes.
Suppressing her breath, she walked slowly and moved out of the corner of the corridor.
"Sister Uesugi."
Putting down his hands and putting away his unkind expression, Hanyu Nobunaga turned around and met Saito Maaya's slightly serious eyes.
He can be disrespectful to Lin Zengxian at will, but he will not show any slight to Saito Maaya, who is regarded as a sister by Airi Hanyu.
"Iwasaki-kun asked about you just now, please go quickly."
Pointing in the direction of the front yard, Saito Maaya symbolically turned half sideways, indicating that Hanyu Nobunaga could leave.
Moreover, she was not lying, the Iwasaki family did mention the Hanyu family just now.
"Yes, Sister Uesugi."
Ignoring Lin Zengxian and nodding greetings to Mingnan, Hanyu Nobunaga left quickly.
"Lin Jun, you..."
Walking up to Lin Zengxian, Saito Maaya spoke apologetically, but didn't know how to finish her words.
Because he went to meet Natsuhiko Uesugi's mentor, he did not consider the special factor of Hanyu Nobunaga for a moment, which was regarded as a neglect of Lin Zengxian.
Although based on the relationship between Lin Zengxian and the Uesugi couple, this incident will not have any impact, but the closer the relationship is, the more Saito Maaya apologizes for this.
Not to mention how deep the friendship between Lin Zengxian and the couple was, just looking at the friendship between Saito Maaya and Hanyu Airi, Lin Zengxian was a first-class guest of the Uesugi family and the Saito family.
I hurried back, only to find that it was already too late.
"I'm fine, thank you."
Seemingly relaxed, but actually smiling reluctantly, Lin Zengxian took the initiative to catch what Saito Maaya had not finished.
"Xia Yan has arranged to introduce you to some friends at the Four Seasons Hotel later in the evening. If Lin Jun feels you are not used to the food at the dinner, you can take a walk outside first."
Passing the umbrella in her hand to Lin Zengxian's hand, Saito Maaya waved behind her without waiting for Lin Zengxian's answer.
Lin Zengxian's blessings for the child have been sent sincerely, and arrangements have been made to help Lin Zengxian expand his network. In the presence of Hanyu Nobunaga, Lin Zengxian really has no need to stay here, but instead let him
I am not happy myself.
"elder sister."
A girl with a high ponytail quickly walked out of the corner and entered Lin Zengxian's field of vision.
"Xun, send your distinguished guest to avoid the people in front."
Expecting that Lin Zengxian was unwilling to stay here, Saito Maaya directly arranged to send Lin Zengxian away right away.
"Thanks."
This is an "interlude" that is not difficult to distinguish between high and low, and Lin Zengxian will naturally agree.
The "brother-in-law" is ignorant. He can't afford to offend him, so he can't afford to hide from him?
"Jun Lin."
Just as Lin Zengxian took a step forward, Mingjing Nan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke and called Lin Zengxian's back.
She seemed to have a very normal expression, smiling quietly, without anything worthy of undue attention.
"Ningjing-san, please speak."
Stopping, Lin Zengxian quickly exchanged glances with Saito Maaya. After receiving an unusual answer like "You can figure it out yourself," he turned around with slight doubts.
"If Mr. Lin doesn't mind, can I go for a walk with Mr. Lin?"
Nai Minami's gaze passed across Saito Maaya's eyes, and after receiving a strange look similar to "sage judgment", she gently threw her soft words into Lin Zengxian's hearing.
She didn't know some of Lin Zengxian's old stories, but she understood the emotions contained in Hanyu Nobunaga's words just now.
This made her feel somewhat inexplicably angry.
Something happened to Lin Zengxian's former girlfriend. Lin Zengxian didn't save her. Did the operation fail?
After simply drawing a rough guess conclusion, Mingjingnan felt a little more emotion that might be called "injustice".
"this……"
Contrary to expectations, Lin Zengxian didn't expect Nai Minami to say this at all, so he had to look at Saito Maaya as the host first.
Lin Zengxian himself left the meeting early for reasons that could not be solved immediately, and both Uesugi and his wife understood very well.
Although Lin Zengxian can also imagine that Mingnan has little interest in family affairs. He is young and has a low seniority. He does not know any of the guests in the front yard. He only comes to see Saito Maaya in a private capacity and has already given his blessings.
It was delivered, so staying here to attend a strange dinner party actually has no practical meaning.
But as a guest, Ming Jingnan also had to leave the table early with him, so this was not something he had the final say on.
"Okay, let the two of you come together. Kyoto in the snowy scenery is worth seeing. By the way, we can have a meal together. My Uesugi family will not entertain you two for the time being. I will go to the Four Seasons Hotel with Xia Yan later. We will meet again then.
Invite you two."
Saito Maaya raised her eyebrows somewhat playfully, and Saito Maaya, who had a look of hesitation on her face because of Hanyu Nobunaga, briskly turned sideways and let Saito Kaoru lead the two people away.
"You two, please come with me."
After a short pause, his eyes passed over his sister, and Saito Kaoru stretched out his hand in the direction of the side door.
Then, a question mark was drawn in my mind.
My sister actually didn’t ask me to get another umbrella, but just sent the two guests out like this...
