Chapter 87 Party I thought that was your boyfriend.
The moon was above the willows, the night was getting darker, and outside the city's largest hotel, all kinds of cars were coming and going, and the hotel was gradually becoming lively.
Shen Qingye and her mother arrived at the banquet venue half an hour early. As soon as they entered the hall, they attracted a lot of attention.
Different from her usual casual clothes, Shen Qingye wore a light blue dress tonight. She had a fair complexion and her back was habitually straight and her posture was upright due to her job. The already outstanding facial features are made even more beautiful with simple touches by the makeup artist. He had a graceful smile, calm eyes, and graceful gestures, which attracted a lot of attention.
Some bosses and wives who were acquainted with Shen Linyue came forward to inquire, and there was a hint of scrutiny and concern in their eyes as they looked at Shen Qingye. On the other side, in the corner of the hall, Yue Lingchuan, who was hiding, tugged at his tie. He noticed the movement at the door, looked back, and his expression paused.
He looked at the woman who seemed familiar yet strange, and tightened his grip on the cup, feeling something strange in his heart.
This was Shen Qingye he had never seen before.
When he was in the team, he dressed casually, did whatever was convenient for him, and was sharp and decisive in handling cases. Among a group of men, facing high-intensity reconnaissance tasks, he never complained about the hardship or tiredness.
But now she...
Yue Lingchuan glanced over there again, then withdrew his gaze somewhat uncomfortably, lowered his head and took a sip of drink to relieve the dryness in his throat.
A group of boys gathered around and were whispering:
"That girl looks unfamiliar. Who is she?"
"Is there something wrong with your eyes? Who else came with Mr. Shen besides her daughter?"
“Oh, I seem to have heard that Mr. Shen has a daughter, but why haven’t I seen her before?”
A tall boy laughed when he heard this and said, "She was busy studying before, and now she's busy working. She rarely appears in the circle. You know that."
"Oh, you're still a good girl." The person's voice seemed a little regretful. The tall boy couldn't help but say, "What good girl? She's a police officer, a criminal police officer!"
"Criminal police?" The boy glanced over there, with a look of surprise on his face: "She? She looks so delicate and timid? Can she be a criminal police?"
"Hey, I've heard a little bit about this." Another tall and thin boy lowered his voice: "It seems that the incident with Boss Jiang some time ago... was done by her, right?"
One person was surprised: "Boss Jiang? Hey, are you saying that she found out all those things?"
"Anyway, I heard that it has something to do with her..."
"That's incredible. I was shocked for quite a while when the story about Boss Jiang came out. Who would have thought that he seemed so easy to talk to, but actually had so many lives under his control... and it was actually related to that girl."
Everyone looked at Shen Qingye again, with a hint of vigilance in their eyes.
Someone else said, "Not only that, I heard that the things that were finally investigated at the wedding of the Xue and Yuan families some time ago were also closely related to that girl."
"Really? Then this girl is incredible!"
"The incident with the Yuan family not only caused great damage to the Yuan family, but also gave half of their shares to the Xue family for nothing. Even the Liao family didn't seem to get anything out of it, right?"
"Not only did they not get what they wanted, Mr. Liao and Mrs. Liao are still in jail now."
"It's what they deserve. Tsk tsk, luckily I didn't have a good relationship with Liao Hongyuan before, otherwise, who knows what would happen now..."
Of those involved in that case, how many are good people now? After the case was over, they were often criticized by their families, who were afraid that one day they would follow in the footsteps of Yuan Zhenghao, Liao Hongyuan and others.
"But speaking of which, Yuanfeng, I heard that Auntie is trying to match you up with Miss Shen?"
Someone spoke with a smile, and Yue Lingchuan paused when he heard it, and looked over there lightly.
The tall boy I just saw at the mall this morning spat, "Get lost, stop talking nonsense here, I already have a girlfriend!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Lingchuan's expression relaxed slightly.
The others were still not giving up, and asked in surprise: "Are you serious? I remember your girlfriend... you've been dating for a year, right? That's quite a long time!"
Others were also a little surprised: "Yuanfeng, are you serious?"
Zhou Yuanfeng said unhappily, "What do you mean by serious or not? Can I be like you guys and just talk for fun?"
"No, I remember your girlfriend. She's not... She seems to come from a very ordinary family."
Zhou Yuanfeng took a sip of wine and said, "Fortunately, her parents are both workers."
"Hiss...then can you, uncle and aunt, agree?" someone asked carefully.
Zhou Yuanfeng didn't care: "Why would they disagree? I'm not in a relationship with them, so why should I care about their opinions?"
The other people laughed and said nothing else, but judging from their expressions, they obviously didn't agree.
However, after hearing this, Yue Lingchuan looked at him twice more, and his opinion of this boy changed a little.
......
Melodious music floated in the hall. The banquet had not yet begun and the guests gathered in twos and threes. For them, this kind of occasion was more about socializing than anything else.
Shen Qingye was led by Chen Linyue to greet some familiar wives of CEOs. During the time, he also saw Xue Mingqi who came to the banquet. The two looked at each other, and after being surprised, they smiled slightly, just as a greeting.
After Yuan Zhenghao's case, Shen Qingye had been busy and only occasionally heard about the Xue family from her mother. After hearing about Yuan Zhenghao's affair, the Yuan family was no longer welcome. Now with the Xue family getting involved, Yuan Xingye is even more overwhelmed. Add to that the factions within the Yuan family already fighting for power. Under the pressure of various situations, Yuan Xingye is already at the end of his strength.
In comparison, the Xue family is much more prosperous. The Xue family already holds 41% of the Yuan family's shares, and has secretly acquired several important companies of the Yuan family, large and small. With the combined efforts of both inside and outside, the scale of the Xue family's business has expanded significantly. After Xue Mingqi recovered, she also joined the company. Her swift and decisive actions attracted the attention of many people, who lamented that they had underestimated the daughter of the Xue family before.
These things just flashed through his mind, and soon Shen Qingye no longer had the heart to think about them.
She was young before and seldom came to such gatherings. Later, I went to college in another city and didn’t come back often, so I had even less chance. But now that I'm back in Pingjiang and with my mother, such occasions are inevitable. In just half an hour, facing everyone's stares or kind smiles, the smile on Shen Qingye's face was almost frozen.
Shen Qingye was startled at first until she saw a familiar figure in the corner. Then, as if she had been pardoned, she spoke to Shen Linyue: "Mom, I saw our captain. Let me go over and say hello."
Shen Linyue glanced in the corner and saw the tall and strong man in a well-dressed suit. She then looked at her daughter who looked pleading, and waved her hand helplessly: "Go, go."
Shen Qingye immediately felt liberated and walked towards the man with an elegant posture but incredibly fast steps.
There were many people in the banquet hall, and Yue Lingchuan's eyes always fell over there from time to time. When he saw Shen Qingye's eyes sparkling and looking straight at him as if there was no one else in his eyes, he inexplicably had a strange feeling in his heart, which made him unconsciously put away his previous leisure, stand up straight, and look serious.
"Cough." He couldn't help but cough lightly. Looking at the girl who stopped in front of him, he felt inexplicably nervous.
Shen Qingye didn't notice Yue Lingchuan's condition at all. He just breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Finally I escaped."
Yue Lingchuan was startled. He looked at her, then looked at the crowd in the hall, and then he realized belatedly what she was here for.
Facing the girl's smiling eyes, Yue Lingchuan moved the corners of his mouth, hiding the inexplicable emotions in his heart, and smiled calmly: "Thank you for your hard work."
Shen Qingye shook his head, unable to express that it wasn't hard work. She imitated him, leaning against the wall, and said something complaining without her noticing, "My face is almost frozen from laughing."
Yue Lingchuan looked at her delicate and fair cheeks, and noticed that her eyebrows and lips were usually a little darker in color. He felt itchy in his heart and inexplicably wanted to pinch them.
He forced his eyes away and responded vaguely. Shen Qingye looked back at him and asked, "Captain Yue is here to celebrate Mr. Deng's birthday as well?"
Yue Lingchuan said yes, and then raised his chin slightly, and gestured slightly in a direction of the crowd: "My mother came to the banquet and brought me along."
The implication is that he did not come here willingly.
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but chuckle.
Shen Qingye relaxed: "Today is more tiring than chasing the murderer for a whole day."
Yue Lingchuan also rubbed his forehead and said, "Who said it wasn't true?"
He was also forced by his mother to try on dresses and go shopping in the mall as soon as he got up in the morning, and he basically had no rest.
"Oh, by the way," he said casually, "I think I saw you at the Zhongyue Shopping Center this morning?"
Shen Qingye was a little surprised: "Are you there too? My mother asked me to go with her."
Yue Lingchuan casually said: "I was upstairs at the time, and I glanced down and thought it looked like you, but I didn't dare to recognize it."
He paused, and then casually said, "Come to think of it... there seemed to be someone sitting opposite you at that time?"
"Hmm?" Shen Qingye was a little puzzled: "Who?"
Yue Lingchuan took a sip of wine, but only felt more thirsty: "It seems to be a man."
Shen Qingye thought for a moment and said, "Oh, you mean him."
She smiled and said, "That's my mom's friend. We just happened to run into each other and chatted for a while."
Yue Lingchuan stretched out his voice and said, "I see."
He said casually, "I thought that was your girlfriend."
