Fu Haiyue's words seemed to be an accusation, but in fact they were secretly giving the initiative to Chen Huan.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see it, but no one can find fault with this silent favoritism.
The elders had asked, and not answering properly would be impolite, so Shen Huan took over the conversation very tactfully:
"I saw that the cakes here were very exquisite, so I came over to try them. Miss An didn't know where she was walking, and she bumped into me from behind, as if she was being chased by a dog and was trying to escape.
Seeing that I didn't fall, Miss An seemed dissatisfied and pulled me to push me onto the table. Miss An said that I looked like I had never eaten cake before. At first I thought Miss An was being kind and wanted me to eat more.
But when she was pulling me, she accidentally fell on the cake. Then I realized that Miss An wanted to eat it herself. Maybe she wanted to eat it alone and thought I stole the cake, so she wanted to push me away.
Chen Huan spoke in a calm tone from beginning to end, without showing any targeting towards An Qing, but he said everything that needed to be said.
Is this little thing learning something on the spot? She finally understood the trick of saying something with a hidden meaning.
Fu Siyan curled the corners of his lips in amusement and joined in the conversation, following the husband's lead.
"It turned out that Miss An was about to fight with my girlfriend because of the cake. When I came over, I saw her raising her hand to hit my girlfriend. In the heat of the moment, she lost control of her leg and kicked out."
"I'm sorry, Chief An. I'm quite strong. If you find Miss An seriously injured after returning, please let me know and I'll compensate her with a few more cakes."
An Bing: “…”
Although his words were full of sarcasm, he still showed his generosity. However, they had the upper hand in both status and words.
An Bing was thinking about how to respond. After hearing what Fu Siyan and Shen Huan said, An Qing couldn't help but speak first.
"She, Shen Huan, she's talking nonsense. It's obvious that she deliberately pushed me onto the stage. I didn't get there on my own."
This is true, but the reason is that she was the one who pulled Chen Huan first, but she just didn't beat him.
An Qing took advantage of the opportunity and accused Chen Huan with a righteous look on her face.
"Oh?" Fu Siyan raised his thick eyebrows. "Since Miss An has objections, why not check the surveillance footage and see for yourself."
Surveillance? An Qing felt a little guilty when she heard this, but she clearly didn't see any cameras around.
Taking in the panic and confusion in her eyes, Fu Siyan tilted his lips slightly and chuckled, "There are so many people at the banquet, and it's a mess. You don't think there really is no surveillance in this banquet hall, do you?"
Given Chu Ke's status and position in the military and political circles, it is possible that a killer would appear in such an occasion, so how could there not even be any surveillance?
It's obviously a hidden camera.
From Chen Huan's words, An Bing almost knew the whole story, and he knew his daughter's personality.
If they find out the surveillance footage, they will be in even greater trouble.
After calming down, An Bing quickly forced out a wry smile, "I didn't expect that my daughter would have a conflict with Miss Shen over a few pieces of cake. It's all because I spoiled her on weekdays. I'm sorry for offending Miss Shen. I will definitely discipline her strictly in the future."
As he said that, he stretched out his hand and pushed his daughter, "Why don't you apologize to Miss Shen quickly."
Things had come to this point, and An Qing had completely lost her arrogance.
The incident she had started ended with her miserable and embarrassing exit early.
As an insignificant person, An Qing's departure will not have any impact on the progress of the banquet.
After watching the excitement, the guests still continued to eat, drink, and flatter.
"Baby, you performed really well today. I'll reward you well when we get home tonight." Returning to the table, Fu Siyan leaned over and whispered in the little girl's ear.
Chen Huan: “…”
What the hell? Who wants a reward?
-
After a busy whole day, when the guests left, Chu Ke and Qu Zhuohua helped their son and daughter-in-law to sort out the gift list.
But suddenly I saw a familiar but unexpected name on the list.
As the three words "Ji Baichuan" on the paper came into view, Qu Zhuohua's face turned pale and the thing in his hand fell to the ground with a bang.
"Madam, what's wrong with you?" Chu Ke picked up the gift list and saw the name, his pupils instantly darkened.
