Chapter 690 Small World 11 - Qin Chuan
The dinner was a gathering of business celebrities, and Ye Rou had never attended it. Ye Zhenlei did not expect to see Ye Rou at the dinner.
When Ye Rou appeared, he was like the moon surrounded by stars, and everyone came to curry favor with him because of the Ye family behind him.
But as soon as Ye Rou appeared, the people surrounding him immediately dispersed and ran towards Ye Rou.
The businessmen were the most astute, and there were no fools among the people present.
Obviously they all knew who the real owner of the Ye family was.
Veins popped out of Ye Zhenlei's hand as he held the champagne glass.
"Uncle Ye." The man's voice was as gentle as jade.
Ye Zhenlei looked over impatiently, and when he saw the man clearly, his eyes suddenly widened. He walked over quickly, unable to hide his joy: "Xiaochuan, why did you return home?"
Qin Chuan chuckled and said, "I came back after graduation. My dad was urging me to come back."
"You should have returned to China a long time ago. The development in China in recent years is no worse than that abroad." Ye Zhenlei patted Qin Chuan's shoulder affectionately and said with satisfaction: "Not bad, you have grown taller and stronger."
"When you were a kid, you were just too skinny, and Lotte always said that... Do you still remember Lotte?"
Qin Chuan smiled and nodded: "Letian and Xiaorou, the three of us were the best friends when we were little."
"Humph, Xiaorou was so cute and obedient when she was little, but she became more selfish as she grew up."
After Ye Zhenlei finished speaking, he glanced at Qin Chuan and saw that he was full of disapproval. Thinking that this guy had liked Ye Rou since he was a child, he quickly changed his tone:
"Uncle was wrong. Does Xiaorou know that you're back?"
Qin Chuan shook his head: "I lost contact with her after I went abroad. Xiaorou probably doesn't know that I'm back. Uncle Ye, can you give me Xiaorou's current contact information?"
Ye Zhenlei was very reluctant to give out Ye Rou's phone number.
Qin Chuan's eyes lit up with joy: "Uncle Ye, I'll ask Le Tian and Xiao Rou out for dinner some other day."
Hearing that he was willing to take Le Tian out to play, Ye Zhenlei was happy again and nodded hurriedly.
Ten years ago, the Qin family was not as good as the Ye family, but in recent years, with the rapid development of the country, the Qin family seized the opportunity and has become a leading enterprise. In addition, Qin Chu only has Qin Chuan as his son, so it never hurts to make friends with him.
Thinking of Qin Chu, Ye Zhenlei asked casually, "Isn't your father here?"
Qin Chuan shook his head: "You know, my father never likes to show up in public."
"Indeed..." Ye Zhenlei nodded in agreement.
On the other side of the banquet, Ye Rou had become the center of attention. She seldom attended such banquets, and no one wanted to miss the rare opportunity to chat with her.
The crowd pushed and shoved, and ended up pushing Jiang Chen out.
Ye Rou waved at him, indicating that he should not bother with her.
Seeing that she was not feeling unwell, Jiang Chen took the tray and went to get some food.
He and Ye Rou had been busy all night and still hadn't eaten.
He had a scratch on his arm, and although it was covered by his suit, he still felt a little uncomfortable with his movements, so he picked up the food much slower.
When he came back, the old men who surrounded Ye Rou had already left, leaving only a young man standing beside Ye Rou.
Jiang Chen's face darkened.
Ye Rou didn't expect to meet Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan looked at her gently and said softly, "Xiao Rou, you are becoming more and more beautiful."
Ye Rou wore a champagne-colored dress with a camel-colored cashmere shawl over it. The soft-colored dress neutralized the gorgeousness between her eyebrows and eyes, making her look more elegant and gentle, and her beauty was effortless.
Her long dark hair was curled and hung down in front of her chest, making her face look even whiter. She seemed to be in a good mood, with the corners of her mouth raised, and her bright red lips showed a seductive color.
Even when she was sitting in a wheelchair, no one dared to look at her strangely.
Ye Rou was accustomed to compliments, and she smiled politely.
After all, I haven't seen him for many years, and even my close childhood playmates have become much more distant.
Qin Chuan's smile was still gentle, and he took the initiative to invite her: "Let's have dinner together tomorrow?"
Before Ye Rou could answer, a hand suddenly reached out from behind and pressed on her shoulder. Qin Chuan noticed that Ye Rou did not dodge and frowned slightly.
The force on her shoulders was not small. Ye Rou's overly sensitive five senses had already noticed Jiang Chen's approach, and she let him move. Suddenly, a plate of food was placed in her arms. Ye Rou looked up and met Jiang Chen's dark eyes.
Jiang Chen created an image of himself as a gentle senior in college, but in fact, his facial features were too handsome, and his tall and deep nose bridge added a gloomy mixed-race feeling to him, which was especially scary when he frowned.
Ye Rou had sharp senses and immediately noticed that Jiang Chen was in a bad mood at the moment.
Is he angry?
But wasn’t everything fine just now?
During this short period of time, something unexpected happened.
Ye Rou thought of something, raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at Jiang Chen deeply, but did not expose him immediately.
The mood was good and the food tasted better.
She was so focused on eating that she didn't notice the tension between the two men.
Jiang Chen pinched Ye Rou's shoulder, and whether intentionally or not, his wedding ring just happened to show.
Qin Chuan noticed the ring and frowned: "Xiao Rou, who is this gentleman?"
Ye Rou was about to answer when Jiang Chen suddenly raised his hand and wiped the corner of her mouth: "You are not even careful when eating."
He took the initiative to introduce himself: "Ye Rou and I just got married a few days ago. My name is Jiang Chen."
Qin Chuan's face was as gloomy as water, and he said solemnly: "Qin Chuan, Xiaorou's childhood friend."
"Childhood friends?" Jiang Chen stared at Qin Chuan with his dark eyes, and smiled: "This is the first time I've heard of such a relationship."
Ye Rou tugged at Jiang Chen, signaling him to calm down a bit, and helped explain: "When we were little, our two families were neighbors. Qin Chuan has been abroad for many years and just returned."
Jiang Chen's face suddenly darkened.
I have been living abroad for many years and just returned to China recently.
He thought of the mysterious man's IP address, which was also shown as being abroad, and the last contact was from a domestic address.
Is there such a coincidence?
At this moment, Qin Chu's secretary came over and said, "Boss Qin wants to see you."
Qin Chuan had no choice but to say goodbye to Ye Rou in a hurry: "Xiao Rou, today's meeting was too hasty, let's contact each other another day."
Ye Rou agreed.
Jiang Chen wanted to remind Ye Rou to be careful of Qin Chuan, but he didn't know how to explain it if Ye Rou asked.
He had never encountered such a dilemma since he was a child, and he felt angry.
Ye Rou turned her head to look at him. Seeing that his face was still dark, she thought he was not feeling well. "What's wrong? Is it the injury on your arm..."
Jiang Chen interrupted her and asked a question that concerned him most:
"Why did that guy call you Xiaorou?"
