Chapter 158 The Family Banquet of the Zhang Nan Family
When we got downstairs, the girl was drinking tea, and she happened to be drinking her own cup.
I don't know why she was drinking so carefully; maybe she was afraid of being discovered, or maybe she was just afraid it was too hot.
“Ilo”.
At the call, Lin Yiluo immediately stopped what she was doing, then quickly covered the blanket and pushed it away from the center of the table.
Her guilty conscience was obvious, but Mo Ziyuan didn't expose her. He walked slowly, pretending that he had just arrived.
"Brother Ziyuan, why are you up?"
Mo Ziyuan: "If you don't want to sleep, get up and see where my tea is."
Lin Yiluo pointed to the glass on the table.
"Where."
"good."
Mo Ziyuan sat down at the table and started holding the cup of tea, glancing at Lin Yiluo's lips from time to time.
It's shiny and bright red on top.
Shi Jingsheng, who was following behind, felt like throwing up. Honestly, he was deceiving young girls every day. He didn't understand anything about romance, but he knew that Mo Ziyuan was a very, very bad person.
The group sat there eating breakfast, and after finishing, Jing Sheng wanted to leave quietly.
Where are you going?
"I'll go to the company and take a look."
"You're not allowed to go. I've already had my assistant bring all the documents you need to process. They should be here in a bit."
This man is so vicious. He really didn't want to go to any family banquet. He set his sights on the young girl next to him.
"Baby Yiluo, do you know that your brother Ziyuan is taking you to a banquet today?"
Lin Yiluo, who was engrossed in eating, was startled and lifted her head out of the bowl, looking at Mo Ziyuan and asking seriously.
"Should I go too? My brother isn't home, so I probably don't need to go."
All of her answers were self-indulgent, clearly indicating her resistance. Moreover, it was obvious that Lin Yiluo wanted to run away immediately; she stopped eating the rice in her bowl, wiped her mouth, and was preparing to leave at any moment.
Mo Ziyuan reacted quickly, pulling her into his arms with a gentle tug.
“Baby, you should go even more since Yi’an isn’t here. You should take Yi’an’s place.”
"But I don't know anyone at the banquet, and they don't know me either. I'd better just stay at home."
The man started to coax him.
“It’s okay, baby. Brother Ziyuan is right here. What are you afraid of? I’ll be bored if I go with your brother Jingsheng by myself. You know your brother Jingsheng is unreliable. I want to go with you. We can stay together and keep each other company, so it won’t be boring.”
Shi Jingsheng never expected that he would be falsely accused.
"Ziyuan, I'm really sorry. I'm so unreliable. I made you feel bored even when we went to the banquet together."
Mo Ziyuan ignored him and continued talking to himself.
"Baby, let's go together."
Lin Yiluo finally agreed, as she couldn't bear to see Mo Ziyuan sitting there bored.
………………
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the group finished packing and prepared to set off.
Shi Jingsheng, sitting in the car, watched as the young girl in the beautiful red dress quickly got out and kept praising her.
"Wow, the baby looks like a fairy descended from heaven! She's so beautiful. I've never seen anyone so pretty before."
Lin Yiluo got shy from all the compliments.
Mo Ziyuan helped the little girl into the car.
The back seat of the car can seat three people, and Shi Jingsheng also sat in it. At first, he didn't think much of it, but as soon as the car started moving, Mo Ziyuan put Lin Yiluobao on his lap.
Shi Jingsheng stared at the two of them with wide eyes.
Mo Ziyuan was still kissing Lin Yiluo, gently pecking at her like a little bird every now and then. He felt that he should be under the car and shouldn't be sitting with them.
Shi Jingsheng: "Ahem, can you two be a little more reserved? Can't you see I'm still here? I'm also feeling very awkward, you know?"
This remark had no effect on Mo Ziyuan, but it made the little girl a little shy.
Mo Ziyuan said while kissing her.
"It's okay, Jing Sheng isn't an outsider, there's no need to be shy."
Haha, he was quite grateful. It turns out that it's a good thing that they weren't being watched by outsiders to show off their affection.
……………
Upon arriving at the Mo family's old residence, we were greeted in the familiar manner. There were many cars parked inside, indicating that quite a few people had already arrived.
The butler stepped forward to greet them.
"Young Master, Miss Lin, Young Master Jingsheng, please come inside first. It looks like it's going to rain."
Lin Yiluo looked up at the sky as he spoke, and it looked gloomy and rainy.
When the group arrived at the banquet hall, there were already quite a few people inside, and they were all somewhat surprised to see Mo Ziyuan.
Didn't they say that Mo Ziyuan had a falling out with the Mo family?
The family members knew a lot about the inside story, but the other people who were invited did not.
Mo Ziyuan went up to greet them, still maintaining his gentle demeanor. The others also stepped forward to offer toasts, and some even dared to ask why.
Mo Ziyuan simply smiled.
"I had a small argument with my family, but the misunderstanding has been cleared up."
Since he said so, they were willing to believe it, after all, given Mo Ziyuan's strength and his status as the heir of the Mo family, everyone wanted to curry favor with him.
Shi Jingsheng then realized the purpose of his visit: he had come to look after Mo Ziyuan's child.
"Brother Jingsheng, let's go try some more food over there."
"Okay, eat less. We still have a proper meal later."
"Mmm, I'll eat a little, just to taste it."
"Young Master Jingsheng, it's amazing to see you here. It's been so long since we last met."
While keeping an eye on Lin Yiluo's movements, Shi Jingsheng chatted with others.
…………
Lin Yiluo was just wandering around and soon she didn't know where she was. Zhou Xiaofei ran over quickly, as if someone was chasing her, and she looked extremely nervous.
By the time Lin Yiluo saw him, it was too late to stop. The little girl quickly moved to the side to avoid being hit, but Zhou Xiao didn't fare so well. She accidentally bumped into the large vase.
Fortunately, the vase only wobbled and was otherwise unharmed.
As soon as Zhou Xiaogang regained his footing, he began to ask Yi Luo questions.
"What are you doing here at our family dinner?"
Although Lin Yiluo didn't know it was a family dinner, she remained calm and composed.
"Brother Ziyuan sent me, what's it to you?"
"My brother? I don't believe it. You must have seduced him and insisted on getting him here. Lin Yiluo, I know my brother best. If you hadn't seduced him, why would he have brought you here?"
Lin Yiluo didn't want to say anything to this woman and turned to leave, but Zhou Xiao wouldn't let her.
"Where are you going? What? I'm telling the truth, aren't I? If it weren't for you seducing my brother, would you be able to stay at my brother's house? Let me tell you, Lin Yiluo, you should take a good look around. After all, this is a rare place for you to see, so you should definitely broaden your horizons."
The girl increasingly felt that Zhou Xiao might have some kind of illness. She clearly didn't want to talk to her, but Zhou Xiao kept insisting on chatting with her. Was she stupid?
Lin Yiluo was really about to leave, but Zhou Xiao hadn't finished speaking yet. In her haste, she tried to grab her, but Lin Yiluo dodged, and her hand accidentally touched the large vase.
With a loud "bang!!!", fragments scattered everywhere, startling Lin Yiluo.
Zhou Xiao also watched this scene in horror. This was the old man's favorite vase, which had been transported all the way from overseas and placed here. He had also reminded them many times not to touch this vase, and now, this vase was broken.
