Chapter 77: Attending Ex-Boyfriend's Engagement Party (Part 2)
They both turned their heads to the side, and what caught their eyes was Jiang Yuli, a tall and slender man with broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs, walking towards them with steady steps.
He was wearing a well-tailored black suit, a vest of the same color, a neatly-cut white shirt, and a black tie with dark patterns around his collar. The metal tie clip reflected a cold light under the light.
As soon as Jiang Yuli appeared, the crowd behind him seemed to be eclipsed.
Although he lived abroad for eighteen years and only returned to China in the past two years, his innate noble temperament is not inferior to any superior.
Compared with him, the other two couldn't help but feel ashamed.
Jiang Yuli's cold and dark eyes passed over the two of them lightly, and naturally stopped beside Su Lingyu. He put his arms around her slender waist, pulled her slightly, and gently held her in his arms.
Domineering declaration of sovereignty!
"Let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend and flower protector Jiang Yuli." Su Lingyu introduced him confidently.
Cao Hanyu and Xing Yujie looked embarrassed and hesitantly called out, "Mr. Jiang, good evening."
"Hello." Jiang Yuli seemed polite, but there was actually a sense of alienation in his eyes. "What do you want to talk to my girlfriend about?"
"No, it's okay!"
"Just old friends, exchanging pleasantries!"
"Yes, yes, we won't bother you anymore!"
The two left in a hurry.
Shen Qiao, who was not far away, saw this scene and almost crushed the wine glass.
They left, but the hand on Su Lingyu's waist did not let go.
"Um?"
Su Lingyu looked at him, "Are you...jealous?"
"Yeah." Jiang Yuli said sourly, "You look so beautiful tonight. It seems like a lot of people are looking at you."
Su Lingyu chuckled.
She whispered, "Baby, are you sure they're looking at me because I'm so beautiful today, and not because my ex-boyfriend is having his engagement party today and they're all waiting to see me make a fool of myself?"
She has a reputation for being clingy.
When I was dating Shen Qiao, I would often go to see him.
"Look at you making fun of me? It's just a breakup, a very normal thing." Jiang Yuli didn't think it was funny.
"Yes, yes, it's just a breakup! He's just a scumbag." Su Lingyu nodded, "Don't be jealous, they are just Shen Qiao's friends, I don't know them well."
Bubble is not familiar with them.
But looking at their eyes, they want to become familiar with Bubble.
Because of Jiang Yuli's identity, they were arranged at the main table.
Also at this table were Shen Qiao's parents and Old Master Shen.
An embarrassing question now lies before Su Lingyu!
She used to call him Grandpa Shen, Uncle Shen and Aunt Shang.
Now she is with Jiang Yuli.
Should I change my name to Uncle Shen, Brother Shen, and Sister-in-law?
Help!!
She's not ready yet.
result……
Jiang Yuli didn't say hello.
How does the saying go?
The husband sings and the wife follows.
Since he didn't speak, she simply kept silent.
The engagement banquet began, with Shen Qiao and Ge Ling standing on the stage.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yuli picked up some food for Su Lingyu and said, "Eat more."
He instinctively didn't want Su Lingyu to look up at Shen Qiao.
Seeing her ex-boyfriend getting engaged, what if she regrets it...
Jiang Yuli was tense all over, fearing that a scene from a TV drama would appear, with Su Lingyu rushing forward or Shen Qiao rushing down.
Shen Zeming's eyes fell on Jiang Yuli. He had been back to China for more than two years, and this was the first time he saw such a gentle side of him.
Before, Shen Zeming was a little skeptical about the truthfulness of what Jiang Yuli said about him and Su Lingyu being in a relationship.
It seems to be true tonight.
But this loving scene was so dazzling to Shen Baichuan no matter how he looked at it.
As soon as the engagement ceremony on stage was over, he told his wife that he wanted to smoke a cigarette and left.
Shen Baichuan hid in a deserted place to smoke.
Suddenly, someone patted his shoulder from behind.
"who?"
He turned around and blew out a puff of smoke. The man opposite him had dyed blond hair, wore clothes that were out of place at the party, and had an untidy beard. He didn't look like a young master from a wealthy family or a nobleman.
He hesitated and said, "You are..."
"Hello, Mr. Shen, my name is Wang Tianyi! You may not know me, but you definitely know my mother, Ms. Lin Fangfang!"
Lin Fangfang was the nanny who took care of Jiang Yuli abroad.
Shen Baichuan suddenly became nervous, looked around vigilantly, and lowered his voice: “Your mother has been dead for many years, what do you want to talk to me about?”
"Of course - take the money!" Wang Tianyi said as he handed the phone screen to him.
The picture quality on the screen looks like it has seen its age.
In the picture, little Jiang Yuli is sitting alone at the dining table eating. The meal is very simple, with more vegetables and less meat and rice.
While he was eating, his plate was suddenly snatched away by a hand.
"It's time, Master, you should take a nap."
Jiang Yuli looked up, his eyes red and wet, and said, "Auntie Lin, I haven't finished eating yet."
"Children, don't eat so much. Eating too much will affect your thinking!"
The picture ends here.
The cigarette in Shen Baichuan’s hand flickered, “What do you mean by showing me this?”
"Don't pretend! Without your orders, how dare my mother, a servant, treat her employer like this? Even if the other party is just an eight-year-old child!" Wang Tianyi put his phone in his pocket. "Give me five million, or I will post the video online and let them all see how you, Mr. Shen, treat your own brother!"
“Are you threatening me?” Shen Baichuan threw the cigarette at him.
Wang Tianyi brushed off the cigarette ash and sneered, "It was so boring abroad. My mom took a lot of videos, and I just found them when I moved recently. I have to thank you too. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the chance to live in a big villa abroad! It's a pity that my mom died in the villa fire later."
“Shen Baichuan, I guess the old man still doesn’t know that in addition to the five servants, seven of their family members died in the fire, right?”
Shen Baichuan grabbed his collar and said, “Wang! Don’t talk nonsense here! Your mother’s affairs have nothing to do with me, I don’t know anything! Don’t think you can blackmail me like this!”
Wang Tianyi smiled calmly: "If you don't give it to me, I will send all the videos to the old man. I think he will be happy to watch a few more clips... Then..."
Shen Baichuan's face changed. Although Wang Tianyi's claim that he had ordered things to happen might not be proven, his father's attitude towards Jiang Yuli was already changing. Once he knew that Jiang Yuli had suffered abroad, his guilt would only deepen, which would be more beneficial to Jiang Yuli.
He can't gamble.
Shen Baichuan let go of his hand and said coldly: “I can give you the money, but all the videos must be deleted.”
"certainly!"
Wang Tianyi handed him the phone number he had prepared in advance. "Today is your son's engagement day. I won't bother you anymore. I wish you a happy engagement!"
"I'll wait for your news tomorrow."
After saying that, Wang Tianyi turned and left.
Shen Baichuan returned to the banquet hall with a sullen face.
As soon as he sat down, Shang Shuya came over and asked, "Why did you smoke for so long and your clothes are wrinkled? What happened?"
