Chapter 086 Inheritance 23
Seeing that Xiang Youyan's expression did not seem to be fake, Yu Nu had to show concern for him as her "fiancé", "Does it still hurt now?"
Xiang Youyan certainly did not have a headache.
It's just that he used to pretend to be a mature and stable son in front of Xiang Yan, and now it was particularly easy for him to pretend to be pitiful and innocent in front of Yu Nu.
Xiang Youyan moved his face closer to Yu Nu, and he didn't care about being in public, and he leaned against Yu Nu stickily, his lips bitten white.
"It really hurts."
The roses were stepped on by the leather shoes, and dark red liquid flowed out as Xiang Youyan secretly exerted force. The neatly trimmed branches were trampled into a mess, and only a few broken petals were left.
Yu Nuo had no choice but to pinch Xiang Youyan's temple helplessly, "...If you have a headache, go find a doctor. I'm not a doctor, how can I treat you?"
Xiang Youyan was a little angry, "If I wasn't worried about your safety, I would have gone to the hospital by now."
As he said that, he took Yu Nuo's hand and said, "Accompany me to the hospital."
Since Xiang Youyan appeared, Xiang Yousen has been silent beside him, just looking at the petals scattered on the ground with his eyelids slightly drooping.
The roses he carefully selected were trampled by Xiang Youyan before he even had time to deliver them to Yu Nuo.
Yu Nuo hesitated and looked at Xiang Yousen who didn't say a word.
Xiang Youyan urged, pretending to be good, "Come with me to the hospital, I'm sick... You can't leave me alone."
His voice was much lower, his face was not good, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, as if he was really uncomfortable and couldn't bear it anymore.
Yu Xi hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, then I'll go to the doctor with you."
Xiang Youyan responded weakly, leaning slightly on Yu Xi's shoulder, but the strength in his hands was not small, and he dragged people away.
Therefore, Yu Xi didn't even have time to say goodbye to Xiang Yousen.
It was dark, and most of the equipment in the amusement park had stopped operating.
The last thing to stop was the double-decker merry-go-round. As the lights were turned off by the staff, Xiang Yousen slightly shifted his eyes and silently looked back at the petals on the ground that had been blown open by the wind.
"Sir..." A staff member trotted over and looked at Xiang Yousen sitting on the bench with embarrassment, "We are closing today, and you need to leave as soon as possible."
Xiang Yousen did not respond, but just stared at the rose stem clenched in his palm. The sharp thorns on it that had not been cut clean had already pierced deeply into his palm.
The staff member could not help but remind him again.
This time Xiang Yousen finally raised his head, and his deep and bottomless eyes glanced at the staff member without any emotion. The latter was frightened by Xiang Yousen's gaze and was stunned for a moment.
"Okay." Xiang Yousen said.
He stood up, holding the only rose in his hand, and walked towards the gate. Suddenly, he thought of the rose on the back seat when the car accident happened.
His father was still looking forward to letting Yu Zhen see the rose until the last moment of his life, holding the petals tightly in his hand.
...What about him?
A rare coldness and sinisterness appeared on Xiang Yusen's face, and the rose in his palm had been squeezed into pieces.
Yu Zhen is always so soft-hearted.
- What should he do?
It
seems that Xiang Yusen's reappearance made Xiang Youyan alert, and the engagement date originally scheduled for the end of the month was brought forward to the middle of the month.
In addition to the time change, Xiang Youyan also deliberately expanded the scope of invitations. Yu Zhen watched him discuss the guest list for the engagement banquet with the housekeeper, and almost speechlessly noticed the dense list of names on the table.
Yu Xi was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
"I want to invite more people," Xiang Youyan noticed Yu Xi's expression, and regardless of the housekeeper's presence, he smiled and walked up to her and kissed her face naturally, "What do you think?"
Yu Xi certainly didn't have any objections.
"It's just... why do you want to invite so many people?" Yu Xi fiddled with her fingers a little unnaturally, "I... a little bit."
Although it was just a plot in the dungeon, getting engaged in front of so many people... was still, still very embarrassing.
Xiang Youyan was so adorable by Yu Nu's expression that his body became stiff when he was close to Yu Nu's. He could only avoid her gaze and coughed with one hand in a fist. "Don't worry, you won't be allowed to socialize with them. Just show your face."
Yu Nu could only say "Oh".
A few days before the engagement party, Yu Nu hadn't seen Xiang Que and Xiang Yousen, so she couldn't help but ask Xiang Youyan about it.
"Uncle won't be back from the engagement party, he went abroad for business."
"...As for Xiang Yousen..."
Xiang Youyan became alert, "Why are you asking him?"
Yu Zhen felt a little guilty, "Just... asking casually."
"Don't bother with him anymore in the future," Xiang Youyan was a little unhappy, but didn't say anything, "I specifically asked him to stay in Haijing City for a few days, and then let him go after he attends our engagement party."
Xiang Youyan took out the cigarette from his pocket, but when he thought of Yu Zhen in the room, he silently put the cigarette back.
Originally, he was going to give Xiang Yousen a chance, but he had the wrong ideas again and again, so Xiang Youyan decided to let him give up completely.
But the two who disappeared actually appeared together at the engagement party a few days later.
Xiang Youyan booked the entire Qionghaitang, a famous hotel in Haijing City, to hold the banquet. In order to let Yu Xi sleep in, he moved the banquet time to the evening.
It started in the afternoon and lasted until eight o'clock in the evening.
The news that the new president of the famous Yuanyang Group was going to hold an engagement banquet had already spread throughout Haijing City. On the day of the engagement banquet, countless media reporters surrounded the door of Qionghaitang to take pictures.
All the guests invited to the engagement banquet were wealthy families in Haijing City. The cameras at the door kept working, desperately capturing every familiar face passing by.
But the protagonist they had always wanted to take pictures of did not show up.
Yu Xi, the incredibly beautiful Madam Xiang according to legend, had a very complicated grudge relationship with the Xiang family father and son.
Whether it was the deceased Xiang Yan or the currently popular Xiang Youyan, they were both obsessed with marrying a man.
... What kind of magic does Yu Ni have?
However, in a place where the media could not notice, the Xiang family driver had already quietly driven Yu Ni into Qionghai Hall, and was led to the backyard by the waiter without any hindrance.
Qionghai Hall was decorated very beautifully. Xiang Youyan arrived earlier than Yu Ni and was discussing something with his supervisor. When he saw Yu Ni coming, he hurriedly put down the documents in his hand, and the smile on his face could not be hidden.
Yu Ni wore a well-tailored suit, one black and one white for Xiang Youyan, and the styles were specially selected as couple styles.
Xiang Youyan's face turned red strangely, "Xiaoyu, you are really beautiful today."
Yu Yu's skin was originally white, and her soft skin was set off by the white suit, which was radiant.
The soft black hair hung down beside her ears, trembling slightly with Yu Yu's embarrassed breathing. Xiang Youyan stared at the exposed snow-white and tender neck without blinking, and soon a layer of milky red appeared.
Yu Yu covered her neck and glared at Xiang Youyan without any temper.
Xiang Youyan smiled foolishly.
The dinner was about to begin.
Xiang Youyan held Yu Zhen's hand and pushed the door open steadily. No one knew that his heart was beating violently, with surging and uncontrollable excitement, because his steps were much faster due to excitement and joy.
He finally understood his father's feelings back then.
Yu Zhen's hands were so soft, pinching them in your hands was like pinching a trembling cake that could melt at any time, making people want to soften their strength for fear of pinching Yu Zhen red.
And such a precious Yu Zhen was now being held by his hand at the engagement banquet.
Yu Zhen was a princess who needed to be cared for, and he would be a knight standing in front of Yu Zhen.
The person his father could not protect finally fell into his hands.
At this time, Yu Zhen didn't know that Xiang Que and Xiang Yousen were also present at the engagement party. On the one hand, she felt a little awkward because of Xiang Youyan's over-large formation, but on the other hand, she couldn't help but feel a little happy.
- Of course, she was not happy because she was going to marry Xiang Youyan, but because he would be able to pass the level soon.
Until Xiang Youyan took him to open the door, Xiang Que and Xiang Yousen were standing by the champagne table not far away.
"I asked them to come here," Xiang Youyan said to Yu Zhen in a low voice after dealing with several people, "so that they would give up."
He was still unsure what Xiang Que was thinking, but Xiang Youyan knew exactly what Xiang Yousen was thinking.
He lowered his head and took a sip of wine, and couldn't help but sneer.
Still want to "fairly compete" with me?
It's a pity that you have already lost.
In addition to Xiang Youyan's business partners, many members of the Xiang family were also invited to the engagement party.
For a period of time after Xiang Yan's death, many people were eager to take advantage of the inheritance left by Xiang Yan, but they underestimated Xiang Youyan's methods and were eventually subdued. Even if they were dissatisfied in their hearts, they had to force a smile in front of Xiang Youyan and Yu Xi.
So even though there were many elders from the Xiang family present, Xiang Youyan had no intention of taking the initiative to step forward, unless someone came over to toast first, Xiang Youyan would condescend to nod slightly and not drink. The elders
' faces turned blue and purple, but they did not dare to say anything in the face of Xiang Youyan's deliberate neglect.
However, the young man who had been following the elders suddenly looked at Yu Yu and asked, "Grandpa Xiang is still here, don't you know how to toast?"
Yu Yu heard the accusation in the young man's words and thought that she really did something wrong, so she hurriedly tried to pick up the wine on the tray.
Xiang Youyan immediately frowned.
"Who gave you the courage to order him to do something?" He narrowed his eyes. "Why, your father's company went bankrupt, and you don't want the little money you have?"
The young man seemed to be stepped on a sore spot, and suddenly he rose up his courage. "Ocean Group is obviously the Xiang family, why should you take it all!"
Xiang Youyan was so angry that he laughed. He was about to signal the bodyguard to come in and pull the man out, but he caught a glimpse of the man suddenly pulling out a fruit knife with a cold glow from his clothes and stabbed him.
A scream rang in his ears, and Xiang Youyan quickly pressed the man's wrist, his eyes becoming colder and colder.
The young man's face was purplish. Seeing that Xiang Youyan failed to hurt him, he turned his attention and grabbed Yu Nu, who was slow to react, and took out a folding knife from his pocket and stabbed Yu Nu.
Xiang Youyan's face finally changed.
But before he could hold the person down, a figure suddenly blocked Yu Nu.
The folding knife pierced Xiang Yousen's waist and abdomen.
