【Chapter 042】Just Friends
【Chapter 042】Just Friends
At this moment, Ye Yixin wished she could disappear right there.
However, no one present could understand her inner thoughts.
She was on pins and needles.
Zhou Mei was still thinking crazily in her mind: What’s wrong with this bitch Ye Yixin? I've made it so clear, why is she still sitting there?
Not hearing Ye Yixin say anything to defend herself like she did in the past, the man in blue frowned and looked at Ye Yixin with a hint of displeasure.
The other two men looked at each other, realized that something was wrong, and silently took a step back.
At Nangong Chenyu's signal, Xiaoliu began to retort to Zhou Mei: "I didn't say a word, and you said I was sarcastic! I also said that you have a vicious mind and a heart of a snake and scorpion!"
"Besides, I am a servant, so what? Am I eating your rice or spending your money?"
Xiaoliu not only looked at Zhou Mei with contempt, but also looked at the other three men with contempt.
He learned from Butler Du that none of the people in front of him were good people. Every time these people go out to eat, shop, or play, all the expenses are paid by the ladies.
The lady is the purse of several people.
Every time the man in blue, Fu Jianren, said a few nice words to her, the young lady would become like a possessed person and obey Jianren in everything he said.
If there hadn't been so many things going on recently and the eldest young master hadn't been so busy with the young lady, how could these people be so proud?
Zhou Mei was so angry at Xiaoliu's words that she was shaking all over. When had she ever been scolded like that?
When she got angry, she didn't care about her ladylike image anymore and pointed at Xiaoliu and cursed: "You are just a lowly servant. Who gave you the courage to say this to me?"
Xiao Liu was not afraid at all, and snorted coldly: "I am just telling the truth."
If the situation wasn't wrong, Zhou Mei would definitely attack Xiao Liu directly. But now she could only say bitterly: "Just wait for me!"
"You actually let me, a man, wait for you?" Xiaoliu's eyes were full of disbelief.
Then he showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, glanced up and down at Zhou Mei, and said with disdain: "I advise you to give up this idea. I don't like a tigress like you."
"You..." Zhou Mei was so angry that her head felt dizzy, and the string called reason broke with a "bang".
"Today I must--"
Before she could finish her harsh words, Fu Jianren realized that something was wrong and reached out to grab her wrist.
"Cousin, stop making trouble."
His eyes were full of warning.
Zhou Mei gradually calmed down, glared at Xiaoliu, and then looked at Fu Jianren with resentment. She quarreled with a servant because of Fu Jianren, but Fu Jianren didn't say a word to help her and told her to stop making trouble!
With a heavy snort, she shook off Fu Jianren's hand and asked Qiu Yu, "Do you know them?"
The "they" she was referring to were naturally Zhinan Gong Chenyu and Xiao Liu.
Fu Jianren and the other two also pricked up their ears. They also wanted to know who the master and servant sitting and standing in front of them were.
Qiuyu didn't even look at Zhou Mei, and naturally didn't answer Zhou Mei's question. She lowered her head, and the little person in her heart was already in tears.
If Qiuyu didn't say anything, Zhou Mei would definitely ask herself next, so Ye Yixin naturally couldn't sit still. She stood up, walked to Nangong Chenyu and called out.
"Goff."
The word "Brother" was like a thunderclap, exploding in the minds of Fu Jianren and others.
Not long ago, the news that the Ye family recruited the idiot from the Nangong family as their son-in-law caused a sensation throughout the entire Guyuan County.
The impression that Nangong Chenyu gave to everyone in Guyuan County was that he was stupid and fat. The only people who knew that he had lost weight were those who were close to Nangong Suhao and those who lived near Nangong Mansion. The only people who knew that he was not stupid were the people in the Ye Mansion and Nangong Suhao.
Fu Jianren and others had said a lot of bad things about Nangong Chenyu before, but now the real culprit was right in front of them, but they didn’t recognize him.
Fu Jianren thought that maybe he had heard it wrong.
"Sister Xin, what do you call him?"
Without waiting for Ye Yixin to answer, Nangong Chenyu imitated Fu Jianren's tone and shouted, "Sister Xin." He pointed at Fu Jianren and asked, "Who is he?"
Ye Yixin shuddered and subconsciously moved away from Fu Jianren.
"He is a friend of mine."
Fu Jianren thought Ye Yixin would introduce herself, so he held his head high and prepared himself, but...
Nangong Chenyu blinked. Why was Ye Yixin’s answer different from what was in the storybook? Shouldn't she declare that the man in blue is her true love and no one can separate them?
"Just friends?" Nangong Chenyu expected Ye Yixin to say something else.
As a result, Ye Yixin nodded affirmatively: "Just friends."
Nangong Chenyu: “…”
Why is this love brain different from what he thought?
Is it because their relationship is not deep enough?
At this time, the waiter reminded Fu Jianren and his friends, "Dear guests, your dishes are all served."
"It just so happens that I'm full." Nangong Chenyu waved to the waiter: "Waiter, check out."
The waiter came over immediately and took out a small notebook: "Sir, the total is twelve taels of silver."
Nangong Chenyu took out a purse from his sleeve, actually from his space ring.
Ye Yixin, Qiuyu and Xiaoliu all looked as if they had seen a ghost after seeing the appearance of the purse.
Ye Yixin comforted herself in her heart, don't panic, maybe they just look the same.
Xiaoliu knew that Nangong Chenyu had entered Xiu Luoshang, but he didn't know what Nangong Chenyu had done there. Now it seems that Nangong Chenyu went in to get the purse.
I don’t know whether Nangong Chenyu snatched it directly or obtained it by other means.
In front of everyone, Nangong Chenyu poured all the silver in his purse onto the table, then counted out twelve taels of silver and handed it to the waiter.
After discovering that the amount of silver on the table was exactly the same as the amount of silver in the purse he had given to Ye Mengying before, Ye Yixin's hope was shattered.
In an instant, all the blood left her face.
Qiu Yu went from being shocked to being frightened.
Ye Mengying was in trouble because she lost her purse. She was kicked out of the store by the people who embroidered Luoshang.
After collecting the silver on the table, Nangong Chenyu stood up, glanced at Fu Jianren and the others who were standing uncomfortably, and then said to Ye Yixin, "Hurry up and have your meal. I'll go back first."
Since everyone has been recognized, it is definitely not appropriate for us to stay and watch the show.
Nangong Chenyu felt a little regretful that he didn't see the love-brained man he had imagined, but fortunately the food in Chunfeng Tower tasted pretty good, so it wasn't a wasted trip.
"I'm not hungry yet." Ye Yixin was full of desire to survive.
"Then let's go back together!"
Nangong Chenyu turned around and walked towards the stairs.
Seeing that Ye Yixin was going to leave with Nangong Chenyu, Fu Jianren became anxious because they didn't have much money on them.
"Sister Xin, I ordered several dishes that you like."
As he said that, he wanted to pull Ye Yixin's hand, but Qiuyu blocked it quickly.
"Mr. Fu, please respect yourself."
Qiu Yu’s eyes were cold.
This Fu Jianren is really a bitch. He wants to hold his lady's hand in public. If he really pulls her over, wouldn't that tell everyone that the young lady has an unclear relationship with him?
As a slave, she could not disobey the lady's orders, nor could she control the lady's heart, but she could still defend the lady's innocence.
Ye Yixin turned around and gave Fu Jianren an apologetic look, then lifted her skirt and chased after Nangong Chenyu.
"Sister Xin..."
In a hurry, Fu Jianren chased after him.
If it was only Ye Yixin and Qiuyu, they would really be caught up by him, but Nangong Chenyu brought four bodyguards with him. Therefore, as soon as he ran down the stairs, he was stopped by two security guards.
"Sister Xin..."
When Ye Yixin heard Fu Jianren call her like this in the past, she felt sweet in her heart. Now listening to it, why does she feel sick?
No, no, she had to walk faster.
Seeing Ye Yixin walk out of Chunfeng Tower without looking back, the deep affection in Fu Jianren's eyes disappeared, replaced by sinisterness.
Just as he was about to go back upstairs, he suddenly remembered that he had no money to pay for the food and wine. After hesitating for a while, he walked out of Chunfeng Tower.
As a result, the waiter saw him about to leave and immediately stepped forward to stop him.
"Sir, you haven't paid yet."
Although Fu Jianren had been to Chunfenglou several times, this was the first time that the waiter chased him for money. He felt that the eyes of other people in the lobby on the first floor were vaguely on him, as if they were saying: Poor guy, if you can't afford to eat, don't come to Chunfeng Tower.
His face was gloomy and his hands at his sides clenched unconsciously. He was thinking that when he became the son-in-law of the Ye family, he would buy Chunfeng Tower and fire the waiter.
The waiter had no idea what the person in front of him was thinking. He knew Ye Yixin. If Ye Yixin was still there, he would definitely not stop the person in front of him. But now Ye Yixin left, and left without paying the bill.
He definitely couldn't let the person in front of him leave.
Fu Jianren said, "My friend will pay the bill."
"Then go up and discuss with them who will pay the bill." The waiter did not give in. He didn't know that every time these people came to Chunfeng Tower, it was Ye Yixin who paid the bill.
Fu Jianren felt extremely humiliated, but he really had no money.
In the end, he had no choice but to take off the jade hairpin on his head to pay the bill. With his wealth, he could not afford the jade hairpin at all. He even swindled the money to buy it from Ye Yixin.
At this moment, he couldn't help but hate Ye Yixin. If Ye Yixin paid the bill before leaving, he wouldn't have been embarrassed in public.
Nangong Chenyu, who saw this scene through his spiritual sense, felt speechless. He didn't understand what Ye Yixin saw in Fu Jianren?
In his opinion, Fu Jianren was average looking, poor, and had a bad character. He was a weakling with flaws all over his body.
So, what is Ye Yixin trying to achieve?
Is it that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder?
Facing Nangong Chenyu's strange gaze, Ye Yixin gritted her teeth and walked forward. Ever since she found out what Nangong Chenyu had done to his second uncle's family, she has been a little afraid of Nangong Chenyu.
As soon as the group arrived at the gate of Ye Mansion, a servant hurried over to inform Ye Yishen.
Hearing the news that Nangong Chenyu had returned, Ye Yisheng's restless heart suddenly calmed down. But when he heard that Ye Yixin actually came back with Nangong Chenyu, his brows frowned again.
"Ask the young lady to come to the lobby immediately." He instructed the servant who reported.
"yes."
