Chapter 161: Banquet (I)



Back then, when they were in school, Ni Sangwan and Rong Zhan were recognized as a perfect match, even though they were accompanied by two handsome guys, Xi Youlin and Shi Qingxun.

But as long as Ni Sangwan and Rong Zhan stand together, they will be recognized as a couple.

In the past, Ni Sangwan would always explain while watching Rong Zhan’s reaction and tell others that they were just very good friends.

But Rong Zhan always looked calm and composed, as if he didn't take these rumors to heart at all.

In her junior year, Ni Sangwan couldn't help but test Rong Zhan with the rumors circulating in the school, but the answer she got was not what she wanted.

He said: "If it is a rumor, why bother about it? The innocent will be innocent. If there is nothing, it is nothing even if it is spread out."

She originally thought that as long as Rong Zhan could show his love or affection for her, even a little bit, she would take a brave step and confess to him first.

But faced with his calm and indifferent attitude, she backed off again. She was afraid that if she confessed her feelings and was rejected by him, they would not even be able to be friends, let alone stand by his side.

Mrs. Ni has always been optimistic about the two of them and feels that Rong Zhan is the best choice for her son-in-law and that he is the only one worthy of her daughter.

But after learning that he was getting married to an illegitimate daughter of a poor family, Mrs. Ni was so angry that she lost her temper at home. She thought that Mrs. Rong must be senile and confused. She gave up marrying such a good daughter and such a good family, and instead chose the Su family, which was not up to standard.

I also feel it's not worth it for my daughter. The feelings that have been hidden in my heart for so many years now don't even have the chance to be expressed.

I had originally thought of asking her out as a second choice, thinking that since Rong Zhan was already married, there was still Shi Qingxun, who had an excellent family background and appearance, and we grew up together, so I thought she was also a good choice.

But as soon as she came up with this idea, Ni Sangwan rejected it strongly, and she never mentioned it again.

"Mom, why are you bringing up these things?" Ni Sangwan saw the displeasure on Rong Zhan's brow, so she gently bumped into Mrs. Ni's arm, pretending to be embarrassed and said in a low voice.

"Hahaha, look at me, this is off topic." Mrs. Ni covered her lips and chuckled twice: "Ah Zhan, you have finally come to Yaerlan, this time you can have a good time here with your wife and sister."

"nature."

Rong Zhan responded indifferently and talked to Ni Shunfu for a few more words. Then Xi Muchen and the others came over. Su Yang and Rong Xi moved aside silently.

Looking at Ni Sangwan holding a glass of wine and chatting happily with those people, Su Yang couldn't help but think of the pair of red eyes he had just seen upstairs.

I couldn't help but look up again, but there was nothing unusual upstairs except some hotel staff and guests.

Many celebrities also came to the banquet. Su Yang was familiar with many of them and had appeared on her show "Idols Descend". She greeted them all briefly.

After watching an international movie star leave, Su Yang looked away and noticed that Rong Xi couldn't help shaking her body. He quickly reached out to support her and asked nervously, "What's wrong? Xixi? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Rong Xi's pupils were dull for a moment. She suddenly felt a pain in her heart, but it was only a brief pain and soon disappeared.

But this kind of pain and discomfort was something she was extremely familiar with.

She calmed down and her body returned to normal. She looked up at Su Yang's nervous and worried expression and smiled quickly, "It's okay. I didn't stand steadily just now. I haven't worn high heels for a long time. The shoes are still a bit rubbing on my feet. I'm not used to it."

"good."

Rong Xi nodded and let Su Yang support him to the rest area.

The two had just sat down on the sofa in the rest area, and before Su Yang had time to check on the abrasion on Rong Xi's heel, two tall figures came over.

"Get out of the way! This is my spot."

An extremely arrogant and commanding female voice also sounded above his head.

Su Yang and Rong Xi raised their eyes at the same time, and what came into view were two very unfamiliar faces. The similarities were that both had golden hair, one with big wavy curls and the other with medium-length hair, and a pair of blue eyes that looked very noble.

Both girls were wearing high-end dresses from international brands, one was a champagne-colored strapless long skirt, and the other was an aqua blue ruffled one-shoulder dress. They were also very tall, which fully brought out the elegance of both sets of clothes without losing their own arrogance.

"Don't you understand? You two, get out of here." Seeing that the two of them were unmoved, the girl with medium-length hair urged them impatiently, speaking fluent and disdainful English, which fell into the ears of some guests around them.

There were many guests in the venue, and there were piano and violin ensembles. The scene happening in this corner did not affect the liveliness and conversation in other places.

"The one with long hair is Mayor Yaerlan's daughter, and the other one is the mayor's niece." Rong Xi recognized them both at a glance, frowned, and was quite displeased. He came close to Su Yang and explained in a soft voice.

Su Yang frowned, slowly stood up, and looked at the two of them at eye level, his cold almond eyes sweeping lightly over them.

"reason."

The two cold and temperatureless scales pierced their ears like a chilly wind, leaving them both stunned.

It took a while for the long-haired girl to come back to her senses. She crossed her arms and said with a condescending attitude: "We were going to sit here when we just came here, but you two got there first. Whatever I choose must be mine, no reason is needed."

"Everything should be based on first come first served. It seems... you Arlans don't even understand this basic courtesy and reason."

Su Yang snorted, looking down on her arrogance. "This is my first time in Yaerlan, and you two have really helped me understand the simple customs of your place. It turns out that you are all so arrogant and rude. It really opened my eyes."

"You..." The long-haired girl was speechless after hearing Su Yang's words.

"Yangyang, Xixi, why are you hiding here? I've been looking for you for a long time." Tao Anwen came over with her skirt in her hand. Seeing the tense atmosphere, her eyes wandered to the two girls who were looking arrogant. She raised her head and asked, "What's wrong? Who bullied you?"

"Who are you? What does it have to do with you?" The girl with medium-length hair retorted unyieldingly.

"I'm your great aunt." Tao Anwen snorted and deliberately replied in Chinese, spreading her hands. "You unfilial thing, how dare you look at me, your great aunt, with such arrogance? What the hell, your eyes are crooked, no wonder you can't see clearly, it's a waste of cornea, don't donate it, okay?"
