Chapter 12 Forced to Start

In the end, adhering to the principle of joining in when there is excitement, Ye Leyao agreed to go to the banquet with Huo's father and mother.

Huo's father and mother were very happy about this.

It was not entirely because they could eat fresh melons, but Ye Leyao did not like to attend various banquets since he was a child. Even if it was a banquet held by his own family, he would always find a chance to slip away from the banquet.

This was the first time Ye Leyao agreed to attend a banquet. Although it was for eating melons, Huo's father and mother were still very happy.

So early the next morning, Ye Leyao was woken up by Huo Yan before he woke up.

Ye Leyao pulled the quilt with a confused look on his face: "... Second brother, so early?"

Huo Yan raised his eyebrows: "Of course, get up and do the styling."

Ye Leyao held the quilt tightly.

Huo Yan pulled his arm.

Ye Leyao collapsed and squinted: "...Can't I sleep a little longer?"

"Of course not!" They were going to join in the fun and eat melons, so they had to hurry up!

Ye Leyao said: "I don't want to do styling."

Huo Yan said: "You have to!"

After that, regardless of Ye Leyao's wishes, he forcibly pulled him up.

Ye Leyao came out of the room, muttering all the way:

[Isn't it too early? ]

[Why do I have to do styling? Isn't it just going to a party? Is it necessary...]

When Ye Leyao thought of this, the sleepiness in his head subsided, and he sobered up a little, looking up at Huo Yan.

Huo Yan looked at him in confusion.

Then he heard Ye Leyao's tone of sudden enlightenment -

[Could it be that the second brother has a target in mind again? ! So I have to dress up as a peacock...】

Huo Yan couldn't help it anymore and stretched out his hand to pinch Ye Leyao's face, not letting him finish the rest of his words, and said in a deep voice: "Hurry up!"

Ye Leyao was startled by the pinch, and most of his sleepiness was gone. He followed Huo Yan downstairs in a daze.

[Why are you still in a bad mood after getting up? I didn't even turn on the phone when I was forced to...]

Huo Yan took a deep breath and told himself not to get angry so early in the morning.

Ye Leyao went downstairs and found that not only him, but also Huo's father and mother were up.

He looked up at the clock on the wall.

Five thirty.

[Why are Huo's father and mother up so early? Aren't they sleepy? The work and rest schedule of middle-aged people is really enviable. ]

Huo's mother, who was communicating with the makeup artist, had a slightly stiff expression.

Huo's father paused.

The couple looked at each other.

At the same time, I sighed in my heart: What are they asking, who made them get up so early? What are you jealous of? !

Who doesn't want to sleep a little longer!

But the "culprit" Ye Leyao didn't notice anything, yawned and sat down in front of the mirror, letting the stylist torment him.

Three hours later, the family got on the car to the Xu family.

In order to show their importance to Master Zhen, the Xu family held a grand banquet this time. Not only did they rent the entire hotel estate, but almost everyone in the business district was invited, and even some media reporters were specially invited.

The Huo family didn't arrive late, but even so they still waited at the entrance for almost half an hour before getting off the car.

As soon as he got off the car, Ye Leyao saw the host family standing at the entrance to welcome the guests. He scanned their eyes one by one, and finally fixed on the young man standing next to Xu's father.

His tone was slightly excited: [It's him! ]

The other members of the Huo family also suppressed their excitement and looked over.

Standing next to Xu's father was none other than Xu Yao, the fake young master of the Xu family.

The young man was wearing a white suit, and at this moment he was slightly lowering his head, and seemed to be in a very low mood.

Xu's father noticed his abnormality at the first time, and looked at him with concern, and even reached out and pinched Xu Yao's hand in what he thought was a very covert move.

Ye Leyao's pupils widened instantly:

[In front of so many people, holding hands? Huh——]

Huo's father and mother couldn't help but nod as well.

With his biological son right next to him, Xu's father actually still cares about his adopted son. This shows that their relationship is indeed extraordinary!

The Huo family and the Xu family have always cooperated. Huo's father and mother had met Xu Yao before. At that time, they thought Xu Yao was quite stable and capable of handling important tasks.

As a result, in such an important occasion today, Xu Yao was still able to throw a tantrum and turn a face in front of the guests. This is really petty, which can be seen.

However, Xu Yinzhi, the real young master standing next to Xu's mother, seemed to have not noticed the little movements of Xu Yao and Xu's father next to him. His expression was neither humble nor arrogant, which made people look up to him.

After sending the front row of guests in, Xu's mother looked up and met Huo's mother's eyes. She smiled and said, "You are finally here."

Huo's father and mother then brought Huo Yan and Ye Leyao forward.

Ye Leyao doesn't often show up, but because Ye Leyao and Xu Chen, the second son of the Xu family, are classmates, Xu's father and mother are very familiar with him.

Seeing Ye Leyao, Xu's mother was a little surprised: "It's rare that Leyao is here. Xu Chen is greeting guests inside. I'll let him take you around later?"

Ye Leyao shook his head quickly: "No, I can just walk around by myself."

[I'm here to join in the fun, what if Xu Chen pulls me and doesn't let me leave after a while? ]

Huo's mother also said: "Xiaoyao just follows us, no need to bother."

Xu's mother was just polite, and when she saw that they declined, she stopped forcing it and changed the subject.

After a few more greetings, the Huo family entered the hotel lobby.

As soon as they entered, Huo's father and mother were quickly surrounded by acquaintances, and everyone's eyes fell on Ye Leyao.

Ye Leyao felt uncomfortable, and said a word to Huo's father and mother before slipping away.

Huo Yan wanted to follow, but as soon as he took a step, he was also surrounded.

Ye Leyao went all the way to the back garden of the hotel without any obstacles.

The Xu family's banquet today will last for a whole day, so not only is there a buffet in the hotel lobby, but there are also many snacks in the courtyard of the back garden.

The adultery happened at noon, and it was still early. Ye Leyao had not eaten anything in the morning, so he walked towards the courtyard, preparing to have some dessert.

There were quite a few people near the courtyard, and as soon as he walked over, Ye Leyao saw a familiar figure.

Ye Leyao frowned and was about to turn around, but the man spoke first -

"Ye Leyao!"

As he shouted, everyone looked over.

Ye Leyao sighed in his heart.

[I should have known not to come. ]

Since he was stopped, Ye Leyao couldn't just leave, so he could only walk over.

Xu Chen had already walked over quickly. He looked Ye Leyao up and down, with undisguised contempt in his eyes. He leaned in and lowered his voice: "Hey, you who don't like to attend banquets are here, and you have a new look? What? Are you attracted to my elder brother?"

Ye Leyao rolled his eyes.

He and Xu Chen have always had a bad relationship, and it can even be said that they are tit-for-tat - Xu Chen is unilaterally targeting him.

The cause of the incident was that Ye Leyao was reading a BL novel in high school and was seen by Xu Chen. Xu Chen is a straight man who hates homosexuality, so from then on he began to target Ye Leyao intentionally or unintentionally.

Not only did he bring up his identity as the adopted son of the Huo family, but he also often mocked him verbally.

Ye Leyao has a good temper, but he is not a soft person, so he will naturally not swallow his anger.

It was the same today. Ye Leyao was about to say that he had a dirty heart and everything he saw was dirty, but suddenly he thought of something and looked at Xu Chen strangely.

Xu Chen was a little scared by Ye Leyao's look.

What kind of look was that?

Usually, whenever he talked about Ye Leyao's love for men, Ye Leyao would always be able to make him speechless. Why did he remain silent today and even look at him with... pitying eyes?

If Xu Chen could hear Ye Leyao's inner voice, he would be able to hear Ye Leyao's explanation at this time -

[Forget it, I won't bother with Xu Chen, this idiot, today.]

[After all, he's going to have two dads soon, so I'll forgive him!]

Qin Yao, who was walking towards this side, paused.

What does it mean to have two dads?

Xu Chen was even more confused.

Not only did Ye Leyao not refute him, he also walked around him and went to the courtyard.

What's going on?

Could it be that I really guessed it right, and Ye Leyao really came here for his eldest brother today?

Xu Chen's face sank, and he quickly stepped forward to stop Ye Leyao, gritting his teeth and said: "Ye Leyao! I advise you to put away your evil thoughts as soon as possible, my eldest brother will not like you!"

Ye Leyao stopped and asked him: "Which eldest brother is yours?"

Xu Chen was stunned.

Ye Leyao blinked: "Don't you have two brothers now? Which one is your eldest brother?"

Xu Chen was stunned for a few seconds, and then quickly realized that Ye Leyao did it on purpose!

He knew that he didn't like Xu Yunzhi coming back to take his brother's position, but he deliberately asked him in front of so many people. Wasn't it just to make him say something wrong and make him look bad?

Xu Chen would not fulfill Ye Leyao's wish. He gritted his teeth and said, "Of course they are all my elder brothers, but Ye Leyao, I warn you, I know my brother Xu Yao is excellent, but you are not allowed to get close to my brother, do you know?!"

Ye Leyao kept frowning when he heard it.

[Xu Yao? Excellent? ]

[Did Xu Yao feed Xu Chen some kind of magic potion? ]

[His brother Xu Yao is so excellent, why did he seduce his adoptive father when he was worried about his position after the return of the real master? ]

What?

Seduce who?

Xu Yao seduced his adoptive father?

Qin Yao's pupils shook.

Xu Chen was still nagging in Ye Leyao's ear, praising Xu Yao in various ways, and warning Ye Leyao not to get close to his elder brother from now on.

Ye Leyao was annoyed by what he heard.

[No, my vision is not that bad, right?]

[If you care so much about your brother, you might as well go to his room now. The cup of aphrodisiac should still be on his table. As long as you pour out the medicine, maybe you can save your brother's precarious reputation and your father who has lost his integrity in his later years.]

Qin Yao was more and more shocked as he listened.

As soon as Ye Leyao arrived at the backyard, Qin Yao heard a familiar voice in his mind. He immediately realized that it was Ye Leyao, so he followed the sound and found him.

As a result, before he could go up to greet Ye Leyao, he heard such a shocking secret.

The Xu family also has cooperation with the Qin family, but this cooperation was not established with Qin Yao.

If today's incident is blown up,

it will be a hundred benefits for me.

Qin Yao took a deep breath, walked over here, and said, "Leyao?"

Ye Leyao turned around, his eyes lit up, and hurried forward: "Mr. Qin! What a coincidence?"

[Ah, savior! Take me away quickly! ]

Qin Yao had a smile in his eyes and fulfilled his wish: "Do you have time now? I want to talk to you about the previous variety show."

Ye Leyao: "Yes, yes, yes."

[As long as Xu Chen can be gotten rid of, everything is fine! ]

Qin Yao felt amused in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He nodded to Xu Chen and left with Ye Leyao.

Although Xu Chen was unwilling, he couldn't really stop him from leaving, so he could only glare at Ye Leyao angrily and warn him with his eyes.

Ye Leyao just pretended not to see it and followed Qin Yao back to the hotel lobby.

As soon as he entered the lobby, Qin Yao was just trying to find a quiet place to have a good chat with Ye Leyao about the variety show, when he heard Ye Leyao suddenly raise his voice -

[Ah, ah, ah! That green cocktail with aphrodisiac added! How did it appear in Xu's mother's hands? ! ]

The Huo family and Qin Yao looked at the stage at the same time.
