Chapter 308 Let's go support Brother Jingyi
He Tian was wearing a floral cheongsam, her long hair styled in a finger wave, and a white fur shawl draped over her shoulders. "Buyu, tell them to turn the temperature down a bit, I'm a little hot."
"Sister, let's take off this fur coat. It's only the beginning of winter, and you'll get heat rash if you keep it on too much." Qin Nianke's outfit was similar to He Tian's, but her shawl was made of pearls.
"I don't want to, I look my best today." He Tian raised her hand, pretended to adjust her hair, and glanced at Chen Buyu. "Just pack the painting and send it to my house later."
Zhou Yixiao's style differed from theirs; she wore a white dress. "I think my dress is pretty good too. There aren't many similar ones tonight. You can give me the painting; I'll hang it in the boxing gym."
"Xiaoxiao, what do you want to hang? I'll give it to you." Qi Feng offered her a glass of champagne.
“I don’t want it, I want the one that Bu Yu prepared.” Zhou Yixiao took the champagne and took a sip.
"Don't even think about it," Qin Nianke picked up a piece of cake and took a bite. "My aunt has been campaigning for votes all night. Are you going to compete with her?"
"Your aunt is missing a painting like this?" He Tian asked in surprise.
“My aunt doesn’t lack paintings, she lacks daughters-in-law,” Qin Nianke chuckled. “It’s all because my cousin is useless. Uncle Shen still won’t let him go public with his career.”
However, after just one night, almost everyone in the Beijing circle knew about it.
"Nianke, stop eating." Shen Buyu hadn't eaten since waking up this morning, and now her eyes were practically glowing with hunger. "I get hungry just watching you eat."
"Go ahead and eat. Aren't you going to eat at your family's banquet?" Qin Nianke placed the cake in front of her. "Strawberry, your favorite."
"I can't eat." Shen Buyu looked up at the crystal chandelier on the ceiling. "If I eat, my stomach will swell up, and I won't be able to breathe properly. Look how bright those little stars are."
"My God, you're low blood sugar!" Qin Nianke shouted, grabbing the juice and trying to pour it into her mouth.
"Qin Nianke!" Si Jingxu roared, approaching with a grim face. "Are you crazy?"
Shen Buyu blinked, regaining her composure. She leaned against Si Jingxu and said, "It's nothing. I was just teasing her. Did Aunt Huiwen get elected as the most elegant lady? I'll go present her with the award."
Si Jingxu frowned and pulled her over, saying, "Just shove the painting into her hands and get down. Save your energy and don't talk to her."
"That's not a good idea, it's very impolite." Shen Buyu was so hungry that she didn't listen carefully to Si Jingxu's words.
Ms. Ling Huiwen was elected the most elegant lady of the night with an overwhelming victory.
She smiled as she watched Shen Buyu approach.
The more I look at it, the more I like it.
Her daughter-in-law brought her a painting; in two years, it will be her daughter-in-law who comes to serve tea.
"Aunt Huiwen, congratulations," Shen Buyu said softly.
"Good child, thank you. You have a good eye. This painting by Zhang Daqian is very valuable for collection. Auntie likes it very much."
After she finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted from the audience. Ling Huiwen tightly grasped Shen Buyu's hand and stepped off the stage.
"Wife, the Si family is going a bit too far," Shen Zhiye said unhappily. "It's like they've locked up our daughter."
Lan Xinyan didn't take it seriously. "I think it's good. It will make those who are thinking about marrying into the Si family and sending women to Jingxu's side think twice, or they'll cause trouble for my daughter."
Shen Zhiye thought about it and agreed.
Ling Huiwen pulled Shen Buyu over, wanting to say a few more heartfelt words, but was interrupted by his son.
"Go find my dad. I haven't even had a chance to say two words to my girlfriend." He put his arm around Shen Buyu's shoulder and led him away.
"Brother Jingxu, what you're doing isn't good," Shen Buyu said weakly.
Suddenly, my shoulder felt heavy.
Si Jingxu draped his white coat over her shoulders.
He stood opposite her, his face grim, and bent down to help her put on her clothes, carefully buttoning them up.
"It's just one piece of clothing. What's wrong with not wearing it? What's wrong with making them wait to change? Is it worth starving yourself for so long? You won't listen to a word I say. Is your health more important than your reputation?"
Shen Buyu blinked. "They're all important."
Si Jingxu was quite angry with her. "Alright, the important part is over. My little feather has beautifully completed her mission tonight. Now you're wearing my clothes, and no one can tell that your clothes are tight. Don't breathe! You! Go eat something!"
The man's oversized suit jacket enveloped Chen Buyu's small body.
She looked down and laughed; no one could see that the button on her clothes had popped open from eating.
"I want cake." After saying that, she ignored Si Jingxu's dark face and immediately ran to the food counter.
"Miss, this is delicious." Acheng brought a plate of beef. "I got it for you, please eat."
"Mmm, you eat too." Shen Buyu took a bite of the cream cake first. She had been craving it after watching Qin Nianke eat it.
After a few bites of food, Shen Buyu came back to life. Eating is definitely the best thing.
"Aren't you stupid?" Si Jingxu stood beside her with a glass of warm water. "You let yourself starve like this."
"I don't know either, how come I gained weight from doing aerobics?" Shen Buyu took a sip of water and sighed contentedly. "Hey, where's Jingyi?"
"I don't know, she's probably gone out." Si Jingxu was preoccupied with whether his girlfriend had eaten and didn't pay attention to anyone else.
She silently circled around, searching for him.
The eldest brother and the older brother were entertaining their parents; Jingyi was not there.
She wanted to ask Acheng, but found that even Acheng had disappeared.
"Mu Zi, do you know where they are?" Shen Buyu put down his plate and turned to ask.
"They've gone out." Mu Zi paused for a moment. "Song Shuchen is outside."
Shen Buyu frowned. What a spoilsport.
She took two steps in a huff, then turned back and pulled Si Jingxu's hand to go outside, saying, "Let's go and support Brother Jingyi."
Stairwell.
Song Jingyi rolled up his sleeves, revealing his forearms, and lazily smoked a cigarette, with Chen Mo and Acheng standing on his left and right sides behind him.
On the other side, Song Shuchen was with A Dong, who was holding a congratulatory gift.
"Jingyi, what do you mean by this? You're stopping your own father for an outsider?" Song Shuchen's expression was unpleasant.
"What kind of outsider is my sister?" Song Jingyi exhaled a puff of smoke lightly, his arrogant and unrestrained demeanor extremely disdainful. "If you have nothing better to do, take my mother to see a doctor."
"I'm just here to congratulate Shen Zhiye on his birthday, and I even brought a gift," Song Shuchen said, suppressing his anger. "Get out of the way."
"You need someone to welcome you. At your age, how come you can't see the situation clearly?"
Song Shuchen's face turned even uglier.
He only brought Ah Dong with him; forcing his way in wouldn't work.
Leaving aside Song Jingyi's skills for the moment, the taciturn man and the bald man behind him alone are worth more than a hundred people.
Besides, he wasn't there to fight. "I just want to talk to Shen Zhiye. Jingyi, have Dad go over there."
"My dad has nothing to talk to you about." A clear female voice came from behind Song Jingyi.
Then a pleasant strawberry cake aroma wafted over.
A pretty young girl wearing a large white suit jacket stood in front of Song Jingyi.
Having just finished eating, Chen Buyu had plenty of energy.
With her hands on her hips, she looked at Song Shuchen with the protective instincts of a mother hen guarding her chicks, "Besides bullying your own children, what else can you do!"
Song Jingyi, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, looked down at his sister's head and momentarily lost in thought.
