"Huh? What?" Shen Fangli looked up blankly, not knowing what Yan Xianjue was talking about.
Yan Xianjue turned around so quickly that she didn't even have time to see if her foundation had rubbed onto his suit jacket.
Yan Xianjue sighed, reached out and pinched her face, exerting a little force, forcing Shen Fangli to look up and look at him.
"I'm talking to you. You seem absent-minded today. What's going on?"
"Don't you usually like eating melons the most?"
"Not in a good mood today?"
[That shouldn't be the case. It was fine when we were practicing driving before.]
Shen Fangli pulled the corner of her mouth and raised a smile: "It's okay..."
But she suddenly caught a glimpse of her own stiff smiling face in the window behind Yan Xianjue.
She finally shrugged helplessly: "Ah, so it's so obvious."
Yan Xianjue stretched out his hand again and smoothed out the upward curve of her mouth: "If you don't want to laugh, then don't laugh. It doesn't look good at all."
After he finished speaking, Shen Fangli laughed out loud.
She snorted: "You are the only one who speaks harshly. How can I not be good-looking? My dad said that I have been beautiful since I was a child."
She raised her chin, her face full of pride and arrogance: "When I grow up, I will definitely be a stunning beauty that will overwhelm the whole country."
[Hmm... that's not wrong. As the heroine of a redemption novel, Su Su's appearance naturally leans towards the gentle and beautiful type. Otherwise, how could she attract the wealthy young man who has seen countless beauties since childhood?]
[As for the villainous female supporting role, a bright and striking beauty is standard, right?]
Coupled with Shen Fangli's pretentious and arrogant expression just now, it has even more of that flavor.
Shen Fangli didn't expect that even when she was standing in front of Yan Xianjue, he could still be thinking about these things in his mind.
She rolled her eyes speechlessly.
But Yan Xianjue's next words made her freeze in place.
"So what happened to your mom?"
But she quickly relaxed again, and as usual, she naturally hit Yan Xianjue's arm and said, "Oh, it's very rude to ask about other people's family affairs like this."
Yan Xianjue did not respond to her words that were intended to liven up the atmosphere.
He stared at her in silence, and Shen Fangli could feel that for a moment, she almost told him everything.
She bit the tip of her tongue lightly to stop the words from coming out.
Shen Fangli shook her head in silence, obviously unwilling to talk more.
Yan Xianjue stood up again and said, "Then let's go eat. The dinner menu at Genting is also very good."
"It's a different style from the Imperial Garden. Try it and see if you like it."
"If you like, you can have the company's work meals provided here in the future."
"Huh?" Shen Fangli didn't expect his change of heart to be so quick, and was a little slow to react for a moment.
But Yan Xianjue's hand was already on her shoulder, and with a slight force she was suddenly forced to turn around.
Yan Xianjue took her to the rest area of the main venue.
Where Shen Fangli couldn't see, Yan Xianjue put on a mocking smile.
Shen Fangli didn't say anything, but her silence at this time could already explain a lot.

At the same time, after separating from Zhao Jiazheng, Zhuang Yusu sent a message to his agent.
"Return the script from Director Zhao. I won't accept it."
The message on the other end came back quickly: "We can discuss this kind of thing when we meet later. Okay, by the way, what happened?"
Zhuang Yushu did not reply to the text message. He chose to send a message instead of calling.
It is to prevent the person on the other side from asking endless questions.
He called the hotel manager and said, "You can start serving the appetizers."
*
The round table in the VIP area seats seven.
There were six people from the Yan family present, and the organizer did not arrange any other outsiders for their table.
There happens to be an empty seat right now.
The Yan family didn't expect that Yan Xianjue would come back with someone after leaving for a short while.
However, Shen Fangli has already brushed her face in front of the Yan family several times.
The two parties cannot be said to be complete strangers.
At least before anyone else spoke, Yan's mother had already smiled and asked everyone to sit down.
Shen Fangli has now completely let it go. Anyway, Yan Xianjue didn't give her the chance to say she wanted to leave.
Why not just stay and eat and drink for free?
Thinking of this, she smiled back politely and sat down in the empty seat next to Yan Xianjue.
Seeing her so graceful and elegant, the smile in Yan's mother's eyes deepened.
While the waiters were serving the dishes, there were a few supporting performances interspersed.
Yan Xianjue looked just average.
The Yan family has participated in countless banquets, big and small.
After all, in their circle, except for the maverick Yan Xianjue who is unwilling to go, and the Yan family is willing to indulge him, attending various dinners is as common as eating and drinking.
The meal was unremarkable, and they were more looking forward to the on-site donation session that was to follow.
But for a dinner party, there are always some specific procedures.
For example, before the donation session, there is an auction session.
*
It is worth mentioning that Shen Fangli discovered that the item donated by Yan Xianjue this time was actually another brooch.
She looked at the items listed above the screen, then looked at the familiar little leopard on Yan Xianjue's chest.
I have to admit that the fox brooch doesn't seem to be very suitable for Yan Xianjue.
"What's wrong?" Yan Xianjue asked in a low voice after noticing her gaze.
Shen Fangli thought for a moment and whispered, “The fox is cunning, but not as pretty as your little leopard.”
Yan Xianjue chuckled: "Great minds think alike."
