Chapter 193 You can find me in the penthouse suite
Meng Zhiyi followed behind her father and mother, while her four brothers surrounded her, forming a formation like a princess.
It was her first time to attend such a high-end banquet, and compared with her previous missions, it was like a wild boar eating chaff.
Not far away, Shen Que, who was chatting with his partners, noticed Meng Zhiyi's arrival. He didn't delay, and immediately said sorry to these people, then turned around and walked towards her.
To be honest, Meng Zhiyi still wasn't quite used to it and felt a little restrained.
Until he saw Shen Que, he walked towards him without thinking.
"Shen Que." Meng Zhiyi's steps were a little hurried, and his voice was a little uncomfortable.
Shen Que was very sensitive to her restraint, and immediately reached out to hold her in his arms, saying softly, "You should have called me, and I would have gone out to pick you up."
Meng Zhiyi smiled bitterly: "I thought about it, but my mother said that today is grandma's birthday banquet, and you must be busy entertaining guests and can't come."
If it were in the past, Meng Zhiyi would probably have thought of making a big fuss, but this time, she was obedient for the first time.
Because he didn't want to disrupt grandma's birthday party, and he didn't want to embarrass Shen Que again.
However, at this moment Meng Zhiyi did not realize that she had already begun to take Shen Que's feelings into consideration.
Shen Que hugged her, lowered his head and whispered softly in her ear: "From now on, you can come to me at any time. You are the most important."
Meng Zhiyi felt warm inside, then smiled and said, "Okay."
After saying that, she stuffed the bag in her hand to Shen Que and muttered, "It's so heavy. I didn't want to carry it, but Third Brother insisted on giving it to me."
Shen Que's eyes were gentle. He held her bag in one hand and embraced her with the other, and said softly, "Shall I take you to see grandma?"
"Okay, my gift for grandma is also in the bag."
Afterwards, Shen Que said hello to the Meng family and took Meng Zhiyi to find Old Madam Shen.
As the two walked towards the central hall, all the guests in the banquet hall looked at them.
In order to ease Meng Zhiyi's discomfort, Shen Que held her tightly in his arms from beginning to end, slowed down his pace to match hers, and led her through the sights of countless people.
Behind the crowd, Song Wei, watching this scene, wanted to tear the bag in her hands into pieces.
"Grandma, Yiyi is here." Shen Que brought Meng Zhiyi over.
Old Madam Shen was chatting and laughing with a noble lady. When she heard her coming, she immediately left the noble lady and walked over happily.
"Yiyi, come to grandma." Old Madam Shen stretched out her hand and grabbed the person over.
Shen Que smiled bitterly, but still stood obediently behind Meng Zhiyi.
"Grandma, I wish you good health and a long life." Meng Zhiyi said the blessing awkwardly.
Before coming here, she had pondered for a long time and found that among the many wishes in this world, she only wanted Old Madam Shen to have these two.
Old Madam Shen was overjoyed, with tears glistening in her loving eyes.
"Grandma accepts your thoughtful blessing."
"By the way, there is also a gift." After saying that, Meng Zhiyi turned around and went to find Shen Que.
When she took out the jade pendant from her bag, not only Old Madam Shen, but even Shen Que were slightly surprised.
Meng Zhiyi held the jade pendant, her fingers unconsciously tightened, and said, "I don't have anything good, but this is the most important thing to me, and I want to give it to you."
"I hope you won't think it's worthless."
The moment she saw the jade pendant, Madam Shen became excited.
When she looked at Meng Zhiyi, her eyes were full of heartache: "How could that be? Grandma will never give up on Yiyi."
"That's good." Meng Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief and then put the jade pendant in Madam Shen's hands.
Old Madam Shen's hands were shaking a little as she held the jade pendant, and then she carefully wrapped it around her wrist.
"Good boy, let Shen Que take you out to play, okay? Let's go eat something delicious."
"Okay." Meng Zhiyi knew that Old Madam Shen was unable to spare time today, so she had no intention of sticking to her.
Afterwards, Shen Que handed the bag to Wang Xiao and took Meng Zhiyi out to eat.
Dessert area.
Meng Zhiyi was holding a glass of wine in her hand. She tried to take a big sip and her face immediately wrinkled.
"Pah, pah, pah. It doesn't taste good. It's sour and astringent." She handed the wine glass to Shen Que with a look of disgust on her face.
But at this moment, someone suddenly bumped into her from behind.
All the red wine in the glass spilled out and splashed onto Shen Que.
The white shirt was instantly stained red, and even the dark-colored suit jacket was wet in a large area.
Meng Zhiyi stood there in a daze, staring blankly at the place stained by red wine.
[Damn, we're already so into the plot so easily? ]
[So while he's changing his clothes, can I start taking the medicine? ]
Shen Que was wiping his collar with a handkerchief while listening to her inner thoughts, and he could no longer suppress the smile on his face.
After a while, Shen Que took the wine glass from her hand and whispered in her ear, "Baby, I'm going to change my clothes. You go find grandma first, or find Qiao Shu and Wen Wan. If you're bored, you can find me in the penthouse."
Meng Zhiyi blinked, and suddenly felt that what Shen Que said was a bit...
What is your intention?
But before she could think further, Shen Que quickly kissed her on the lips and turned away.
She stood there, staring thoughtfully in the direction where Shen Que left.
At the same time, Song Wei, who had been hiding in the corner and watching this side, finally got her chance.
There was a gleam in her eyes and a hint of pride in her expression, then she turned and disappeared around the corner.
Ten minutes later, penthouse suite.
Shen Que had already changed his clothes and was only wearing a nightgown. He was sitting on the sofa waiting for his obedient man to come and give him the medicine.
Just as he was expecting Meng Zhiyi to come, there was a knock on the door.
Shen Que was a little excited and quickly stood up to open the door.
Outside the door, a woman dressed as a hotel waitress was holding a tiramisu and a glass of juice.
"Mr. Shen, this is something a lady named Meng asked me to bring to you."
Shen Que raised his eyebrows and took it with a smile in his eyes: "Thank you."
He returned to the room, put the things on the table, and kept staring at them.
Shen Que knew that Meng Zhiyi liked to eat small cakes, so he didn't have any doubts at all.
He thought for a moment, picked up the spoon, scooped out a small bite and tasted it.
But after taking a bite, Shen Que frowned and said to himself, "Is it so sweet? But I didn't notice it when I kissed her."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door rang again.
Shen Que immediately put aside his previous doubts and stood up to open the door.
I thought that this time I kissed my girlfriend to drug me.
But when the door opened, I saw Song Wei standing outside.
The smile on Shen Que's face froze suddenly, and turned cold in an instant.
He didn't say anything and just closed the door.
But Song Wei quickly put her hands on the door frame and cried out in pain: "Ah!"
Although Shen Que didn't want to see this person, his upbringing prevented him from being violent towards a girl.
He opened the door again and said in a cold voice, "Please leave."
