Chapter 158 That may not be

the case. The atmosphere in the living room became a little subtle because of Xu Yongfeng's sudden action.

But under Yun Langyue's pointed questioning and Wu Bo's attitude that he had no intention of standing up, Xu Yongfeng quickly reacted, gradually suppressed his surprise, and regained his composure.

"Excuse me."

Xu Yongfeng looked at Uncle Wu deeply, and then stopped paying attention to him, and focused his attention entirely on Su Ming and Yun Langyue, as if Uncle Wu did not exist.

"This is the first time we're talking face to face, right? Miss Yun."

Xu Yongfeng gave a faint smile.

"Yes." Yun Langyue also smiled and said politely: "Although I have met the councillor several times on other occasions, it was always my mother who talked to you. This is indeed the first time I have talked to you face to face like this."

At this time, even Yun Langyue restrained her casualness when facing Su Ming, and acted like a real lady, elegant and dignified.

It should be said that this is the face Yun Langyue shows to the outside world. She usually has a casual attitude, which she probably only shows when facing Su Ming.

Xu Yongfeng naturally didn't know this and started talking to Yun Langyue.

"Is your mother in good health?" Xu Yongfeng asked, "I haven't seen her for a while. Her business shouldn't have been affected, right?"

"Mother is doing well. She is currently free of illness and pain, and is even a little too active." Yun Langyue pursed her lips and smiled, and said politely: "As for business matters, I don't know much about them. Mother doesn't really want me to get involved in those things."

"Really?" Xu Yongfeng seemed to have heard something, and said with a smile: "She still loves you as always."

Hearing this, Yun Langyue said helplessly: "If possible, I hope she can respect herself a little more."

This is Yun Langyue's true words, not just a polite remark.

"If she heard what you said, she would probably be sad for a long time."

Xu Yongfeng was actually a little amused and helpless.

At the side, Su Ming couldn't help but think of Yun Langyue's mother and shuddered.

Although he had only met Yun Langyue's mother once, that one meeting still left a deep impression on him.

Therefore, others could not understand the conversation between Yun Langyue and Xu Yongfeng, but Su Ming did.

The reason why he kept his distance from Yun Langyue might not be unrelated to her extremely bad mother.

In short, Su Ming didn't want to deal with that person, otherwise, he would not have chosen to make a deal with Xu Qianqian.

After all, if you really want to make a fuss, Yun Langyue is actually more suitable to be his trading partner.

Her family specializes in this field. If Su Ming gives the various extraordinary items he opened from the package to her family for operation, the profit may increase by one cent.

Unfortunately, because of Yun Langyue's excellent mother, Su Ming had to give up this plan.

Otherwise, given the other party's hatred for me, if I really wanted to throw out the goods stored in my backpack, it would be very likely that I would be devoured by the other party without leaving even a bone.

Just as Su Ming was thinking about things in such a wild way, the polite conversation between Xu Yongfeng and Yun Langyue came to an end.

Xu Yongfeng also turned his head and looked at Su Ming, his eyes full of scrutiny.

"You are Su Ming, right?" Xu Yongfeng said, "Finally I see you."

From Xu Yongfeng's words, it can be heard that he seems to have wanted to see Su Ming for a long time.

"Hello."

Su Ming just sent his greetings.

"You don't have to be so polite." Xu Yongfeng shook his head and said, "You are my daughter's friend. The reason I invited you here today is out of personal gratitude. Just treat me as the father of your friend's family."

When saying this, Xu Yongfeng's tone was indeed less majestic and more friendly.

If Yun Langyue had not reminded Su Ming once on the way here, he might really have thought that Xu Yongfeng was an amiable uncle next door?

When I was still in Huaming District, when I received a call from Xu Yongfeng, the other party's tone was not as friendly as it is now. Instead, it was a bit like Xu Qianqian, very indifferent.

No one knows whether this behavior is intentional for Yun Langyue to see, or whether he has really let down his guard and is showing his true side.

Anyway, Su Ming felt that facing these political bigwigs who were accustomed to conspiracies and intrigues, it would be better for him not to believe what he saw.

Therefore, Su Ming adopted the same attitude as Yun Langyue and showed a polite yet courteous smile.

Xu Yongfeng may have noticed this and also looked at Su Ming deeply.

"For me, the current experience is still quite fresh." Xu Yongfeng suddenly said: "My daughter who had no human touch actually made a close friend and brought him home to meet my parents one day. It turns out that people have to live longer to see things that they thought they could not see in the past."

Xu Yongfeng actually said this.

Maybe this is what he really meant.

Who made Xu Qianqian a bit unapproachable and difficult to get close to? She was the school beauty that everyone admired and loved, the daughter of the Xu family, but she didn't have any friends in the school, and she couldn't even see other students accompanying her. It was really a bit exaggerated.

But. "Is it impersonal?"

When Su Ming heard Xu Yongfeng's words, he said something subconsciously.

"That may not be the case."

Being cold-hearted is one thing, but to say that someone is unkind is another.

At the very least, an inhuman person would not risk his life to save Su Ming, and when being ambushed, he would not think about avoiding implicating Su Ming and taking on all the responsibilities alone.

In front of Su Ming, Xu Qianqian's humane side was undoubtedly revealed.

However, this does not seem to be a treatment that everyone can enjoy.

At least, Xu Qianqian never cared as much about Li Wei, who was also implicated and whose life or death was still unknown, as she did when facing Su Ming.

So, others may not be qualified to say such things, but Su Ming is qualified to say it.

"Oh?" Xu Yongfeng seemed to have not expected Su Ming to say that. He narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled, "It seems that your relationship is better than I thought."

The one who reacted to Xu Yongfeng's words was not Su Ming, but Yun Langyue.

“That’s what I think.”

Yun Langyue was still holding Su Ming's hand and saying these words with a smile as beautiful as a flower, but it gave Su Ming the feeling that he was being stared at by a smiling tiger and his vital points were being strangled.

"It seems that we will be able to talk about a lot of interesting topics at today's family dinner."

Xu Yongfeng saw all of this and it is unknown what he felt when he said these words.

Then, Xu Yongfeng turned to the housekeeper and asked, "Where are the young lady and the lady? Have they returned?"

"Madam is back." The housekeeper replied immediately, "Miss is on her way too and will be here soon."

"Then go down and prepare." Xu Yongfeng said calmly, "We don't need too many people. My family dinner will only be for our family of three and two guests."

The meaning of this statement was very clear. It was telling Su Ming and Yun Langyue that this family dinner was indeed private.

The grand scene that Su Ming had worried about, in which all the Xu family members would be present, did not occur.

"Too."

Su Ming felt somewhat relieved.

If it was really as Yun Langyue said, the main purpose of this family dinner was to win her over and to put it on display for others to watch and make them be cautious, then Xu Yongfeng would naturally not let others attend.

Otherwise, there is a possibility that something might be seen through.

Su Ming felt relieved as his troubles were reduced a lot, but he couldn't help but feel curious.

"Will Senior Xu's mother also be present?"

I wonder what kind of person that person is? Does he look like Xu Qianqian?

Or is she as bad as Yun Langyue's mother, extremely bad?

I hope not.

Because Xu Qianqian had not returned yet and the family dinner was still being prepared, Xu Yongfeng instructed the housekeeper to prepare a room for Su Ming and Yun Langyue so that they could rest for a while.

The scale of this main building is not small. Even if it is not as big as a castle, it is not much different. There are naturally many rooms, including many guest rooms.

It would be better to say that the main building has the most guest rooms.

Because only direct descendants of the Xu family live in the main hall, and people from the side branches all live in the other halls.

And how many people are there in the direct lineage of the Xu family?

Counting from Xu Qianqian's grandfather, the head of the Xu family, there are only a few dozen people at most.

A household of dozens of people may sound like a lot, but in a mansion as big as a castle, it is really very small.

Therefore, there are many empty rooms in the main building, many of which are used to entertain VIPs.

Originally, as the younger generation, Su Ming and Yun Langyue should not have been treated well enough to receive such an entertainment. However, this time, Xu Yongfeng invited Su Ming and Yun Langyue to attend his family dinner in order to express his gratitude for saving his daughter. All the entertainment standards were prepared at the highest level. Therefore, the two were real guests of honor, and their treatment would not be worse than anyone else.

So, Su Ming and Yun Langyue, led by the housekeeper, left the reception room.

Only Xu Yongfeng was left. He watched the two people leave, and finally stared at Uncle Wu who was following behind Su Ming and Yun Langyue, in silence.

"What do you think?"

Without any warning, Xu Yongfeng spoke to the empty corner.

However, a figure suddenly walked out from the corner that was supposed to be empty.

He was a short, sloppy-looking man with bright eyes.

The man appeared so suddenly, or rather, he had been here from the beginning.

"Two very outstanding juniors."

The short man gave this comment.

However, this evaluation is somewhat bland.

"Is this all you can see with your eyesight?"

Xu Yongfeng said lightly.

"For now." The short man sighed and said, "I don't dare to observe too recklessly. The old man from the Yun family has already discovered me."

"Really?" Xu Yongfeng was not surprised. He just tapped the table with his fingers and said, "That woman from the Yun family really didn't leave any time for others. She actually let him come with her daughter."

"So you have to be careful." The short man warned: "If you test and take advantage of it too much, you will be retaliated against."

Xu Yongfeng nodded.
