Qiao Sen looked at Ye Chu's expression, panicking, and hurriedly continued: "Actually, it was my idea to send gifts all over the village. If Miss Ye is unhappy, blame me! It really has nothing to do with the young master!"
Ye Chu still did not respond.
Qiao Sen decisively played the sympathy card: "I was found out by the young master when I informed you. I have been living a miserable life these two days. Fortunately, I came up with the idea of sending gifts all over the village yesterday, and the young master was a little more friendly to me. Miss Ye, please pity my misery and don't be angry!"
Qiao Sen was telling the truth.
Ye Chu looked at Qiao Sen's pitiful appearance and couldn't help but chuckle.
Qiao Sen: "..."
Ye Chu smiled and said, "I was just too surprised."
Qiao Sen's sad face, which had not yet been retracted, twitched violently.
Ye Chu was originally stunned, but was finally amused by Qiao's sad card. Ye's father and mother were also amused.
The weird atmosphere finally dissipated.
Mother Ye first showed her hospitality as a host. She quickly stood up and poured tea for Qiao Sen. "I'm sorry, Assistant Qiao, you've been here for so long, but we were so surprised that we didn't even pour you tea."
Qiao Sen was frightened back to his senses by the word "you". With a strong desire to survive, he hurriedly walked to Mother Ye's side, grabbed the kettle and said hurriedly, "Aunt Ye, please sit down. It's not right for you to pour tea for me. Let me do it!"
Mother Ye: "...No, Assistant Qiao, this is my home, you are a guest..."
"No, no, no, I should be the one pouring tea at your house. Please sit down quickly, Aunt!" Qiao Sen's hand holding the kettle moved quickly to avoid Mother Ye's hand that was reaching out to take it.
Mother Ye: "..."
When Father Ye saw Qiao Sen's attitude, he immediately felt very embarrassed and stood up to go over to grab the water bottle.
At this moment.
A low-pitched and sharp voice came from the door: "Uncle and Aunt, I am Xiao Beichen, may I come in?"
As soon as Mr. Xiao's voice came in, the air in the room immediately stopped.
Qiao Sen and Father and Mother Ye froze in their hands.
Only Ye Chu looked in the direction of the voice with a little surprise.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Qiao Sen reacted suddenly, strode to the door and quickly opened it.
Ye Chu:...Okay, Special Assistant Qiao was so afraid of Mr. Xiao that she forgot to ask for the consent of the host family, such as her parents, and opened the door automatically.
However, Ye Chu didn't care about Qiao Sen's overstepping of authority at all. Her eyes were fixed on Mr. Xiao's face at the door.
The man had obviously taken great care of his appearance. He didn't have his usual cold expression at all. Instead, he was full of humility and politeness. His eyes slowly turned to the hall.
As if sensing something, the man's eyes first fell on Ye Chu's face. When he met her gentle and smiling eyes, the man paused slightly, and his deep eyes naturally became soft.
Three seconds later, the man's eyes moved away and looked at Mr. and Mrs. Ye standing in front of the tea cabinet.
His deep eyes were instantly filled with respect and politeness, and his long legs moved lightly.
Father and Mother Ye finally recovered from their surprise, and they were very calm without any panic.
The two elders looked at each other, and Mother Ye calmly took another disposable cup and began to pour tea, while Father Ye pretended to be serious and turned to walk towards Xiao Beichen.
And President Xiao was the younger generation, smiling politely, and walked towards Father Ye.
I don't know why, but Ye Chu always felt that at this moment, there was an indescribable taste in the steps of President Xiao and his father walking towards each other, and in the obviously polite eyes of the two.
President Xiao stood two steps away from Father Ye, extended his hand politely, and said respectfully: "Hello, uncle."
Father Ye stopped and shook President Xiao's hand politely, "Well, you too."
Then.
It seemed a little weird.
A polite handshake is supposed to be followed by loosening of hands, but at this moment, neither Mr. Xiao nor Mr. Ye showed any signs of letting go.
Ye Chu stared at the hands held by her father and Mr. Xiao for more than ten seconds, and then:...
She couldn't help but glance at Mr. Xiao, and then at her father. She felt that both of them had hesitant expressions, and the hands held together still showed no signs of loosening.
Ye Chu didn't understand.
Qiao Sen, who was standing behind Mr. Xiao, didn't understand either.
Mr. Xiao thought to himself: Uncle won't let go, so I can't let go on my own initiative.
And Mr. Ye... was simply shocked and uncontrollably stunned by the atmosphere of holding the hand of Mr. Xiao, a proud son of heaven
, and suddenly felt awkward.
"Hey, old man, why are you holding Mr. Xiao's hand? Guests are welcome, why don't you ask Mr. Xiao to sit down?" Mother Ye said considerately.
Father Ye quickly withdrew his hand, coughed to clear his throat, and said calmly: "Sit down."
"Thank you, uncle and aunt. And uncle and aunt, just call me Beichen."
Xiao Beichen was still polite and turned to look at Ye Chu, only to find that Ye Chu was sitting on a single chair, so he could not sit next to her.
Mr. Xiao was a little disappointed.
Qiao Sen, who was standing behind him, was very smart. He saw what his young master was thinking at a glance. He decisively moved the wooden chair in front of the wall and placed it next to Ye Chu, saying: "Young master, please sit down."
Mr. Xiao glanced at him lightly.
Qiao Sen immediately received the compliment from his young master and was immediately moved. He thought that he would be pardoned for the crime of informing Miss Ye in the near future!
It took only about ten seconds from the time Qiao Sen brought the chair over to the time when Mr. Xiao sat down.
Father and Mother Ye were not paying attention and were too slow. When the two elders saw clearly which chair Qiao Sen was moving, Mr. Xiao had already bent over and sat down.
"Wait!" The two elders exclaimed in unison and quickly stood up to stop Mr. Xiao from sitting down.
However.
Mr. Xiao had already sat down as steady as a rock. Hearing the exclamation of Mr. and Mrs. Ye, he looked over in confusion.
Ye Chu was also very surprised and looked at his parents in confusion.
At this moment.
"Crack!" A sound came from the chair where Mr. Xiao was sitting...
Under the shocked expressions of Mr. and Mrs. Ye and the confused gaze of Ye Chu, Mr. Xiao, who was sitting in a dignified posture, sank down with a "bang" sound -
fortunately, Mr. Xiao's ability to respond was amazing. When he sank, Mr. Xiao's feet quickly stood up!
However.
The incident happened suddenly without any warning. President Xiao, who usually remained calm even when faced with a catastrophe, still had such a ferocious look...
The whole air in the living room
was silent.
More than ten seconds passed, and no one came to their senses.
No, only one person came to his senses immediately - Assistant Qiao retreated silently and quickly, and in the blink of an eye he shrank into a corner, trembling and shivering.
"Puff!!!" Ye Chu chuckled suddenly, and instantly laughed so hard that tears were about to come out.
She had never seen Xiao Beichen look so ferocious before.
Today was a feast for her eyes, and she might never see it again in her life.
