"I'll help you look for her." He said he wanted to help find Chi Beibei, but he refused to leave her side even for a moment. Yao Yao knew his temper, so she had no choice but to follow him.
The two looked for Chi Beibei in the hall.
Yao Yao was wearing a burgundy long skirt with a slit on the side. Her slender white legs were faintly visible when she walked, making her look indescribably sexy and charming.
The second master of the Xia family beside her had become a human pendant.
Because Yao Yao particularly likes bright and flamboyant dressing, and the second master of the Xia family is always with her, she stands out at the banquet, and Chi Beibei quickly finds her in the crowd.
"Aunt."
When she saw Chi Beibei, Yao Yao's eyes lit up. She broke away from the Second Master of the Xia Family and hugged her tightly: "Beibei, did you miss your aunt? I heard that you got third place in the monthly exam this time. That's great!"
"I knew our Beibei was so smart. If he worked hard, he would definitely get very good grades."
Chi Beibei smiled and glanced at his uncle who was full of resentment after being pushed away, and left Yao Yao's arms: "Aunt, it's not that good."
Seeing Chi Beibei wisely leave his wife's arms, the second master of the Xia family nodded with satisfaction: "Beibei must have done well in the exam this time, keep it up."
Yao Yao finally noticed Gu Yanchuan and others around Chi Beibei: "Are these your friends?"
"Aunt, they are all my good friends." Chi Beibei introduced Gu Yanchuan, Sheng Yuanyuan and Xie Ziyu to Yao Yao one by one.
"It's fine, Beibei." Yao Yao looked relieved.
"Zhao Kexin was your only friend before, so I couldn't say anything." Seeing that Chi Beibei had a new playmate, Yao Yao couldn't help but say, "She obviously has bad intentions, so you'd better be on guard."
"I have now cut off contact with Zhao Kexin."
Yao Yao smiled and said, "That's good."
"Beibei, you'll be taking the college entrance exam next year, so you should study hard now." Yao Yao still felt it was a pity that Chi Beibei gave up music, "If you still want to learn music in the future, you can always come to your aunt."
"Okay, aunt." Chi Beibei agreed. Even if she didn't get involved in the entertainment industry, she could still use music as a hobby.
Chi Beibei knew that her aunt valued talent, and just when she mentioned music, she said, "Aunt, Tzuyu is very talented in music, can you talk to him?"
"Really?" Anyone who is praised by Beibei for being talented must be really good, right? Yao Yao looked at Xie Ziyu expectantly.
Xie Ziyu stood up a little nervously: "Hello, Teacher Yao." Teacher is a respectful title for seniors.
Yao Yao looked at Xie Ziyu carefully for a few times and had a good first impression of him. He was a boy as tall and straight as a poplar tree, full of energy, clean and handsome.
After asking him a few simple questions, Xie Ziyu answered them fluently and Yao Yao nodded continuously.
Yao Yao showed a satisfied look, and Chi Beibei said, "Aunt, Ziyu taught herself all these."
"You taught yourself all of this?" Yao Yao was a little surprised.
"Yes, brother Tzuyu has never hired a music teacher." Sheng Yuanyuan was a little proud. Her brother Tzuyu was the best.
"I learned it from online courses." Xie Ziyu rarely showed a shy expression.
That's really amazing.
"Come on, come with me over there and have a good chat." Yao Yao called Xie Ziyu to sit on the sofa in the corner.
The second master of the Xia family knew that his wife loved music. Her studio had signed several singers, and she always liked to discuss with them when she was free.
He stuck to Yao Yao, asserting his sovereignty, and did not stop their conversation.
In order to give them space, Chi Beibei, Gu Yanchuan and others stayed where they were, while Sheng Yuanyuan and Xueqiu, two foodies, ran to the snack area to find food.
Chi Beibei was chatting with Gu Yanchuan, and thinking of seeing his father at the door, he casually said: "Yanchuan, I just saw my uncle."
"The old man is here too?" Gu Yanchuan asked anxiously, "He didn't do anything to you, did he?" As he spoke, he looked Chi Beibei up and down, as if checking if she was injured.
"No." Chi Beibei was a little surprised, "Do you think uncle will hurt me?"
"No...no." Gu Yanchuan could feel that the old man was dissatisfied with the little girl. Who knew if he would suddenly go crazy again.
The little girl didn't seem to have suffered any external injuries. Gu Yanchuan asked again, "He didn't hurt you, did he?"
Chi Beibei thought about it, wondering if that fierce look counted: "No, my uncle is a good person." Maybe my uncle was not being mean to her?
Strange, didn’t the old man always tell him to stay away from the little girl? Why did he suddenly come to attend the Chi family's banquet? He hasn't done anything to the girl yet.
He thought that no matter how bad the old man was, he would still say some harsh words. Was he narrow-minded?
Not understanding what the old man was doing, Gu Yanchuan reminded Chi Beibei: "Xiao Bei, if the old man causes you trouble, remember to tell me."
Chi Beibei vaguely realized that the relationship between Gu Yanchuan and his father seemed a little strange. Gu Yanchuan did not call him dad but called him old man, and his attitude seemed very defensive.
She nodded hesitantly: "Okay."
Seeing Chi Beibei nodded, Gu Yanchuan felt relieved. He raised his head and looked around the hall, searching for Gu Sinan, and soon locked onto his figure.
I saw him sitting in another corner, leaning weakly against the back of the chair, staring blankly in a certain direction, with an expression that could be described as distraught and extremely sad.
Gu Yanchuan followed his gaze and saw a familiar figure. His face turned pale instantly and he looked away without thinking.
He still overestimated his position in the old man's heart. He actually thought that the old man came to the Chi family to break up him and the girl, but it turned out that he came to secretly see that woman.
The old man's feelings for that woman are so touching. Even though he cheated on her, he still can't forget her!
"Yanchuan, what's wrong with you?" Chi Beibei was standing next to Gu Yanchuan and clearly felt his emotional changes.
Is it because of Uncle Gu? Chi Beibei tried to look in the direction he had just looked.
Just then, the banquet officially began. The crowd blocked the view, and Chi Feng went on stage to give a speech.
"Good evening, dear guests, relatives and friends. Thank you all for coming to the welcoming banquet for my beloved daughter Chi Mingchu. My precious daughter Mingchu was in poor health when she was young and she almost died several times. Her mother and I visited famous doctors and prayed to gods and Buddhas. The masters told us that Mingchu must hide her identity and stay away from her hometown before she turns 17 in order to save her life. After successfully surviving this disaster, she will have a smooth life. She has been recuperating abroad for more than ten years and has only recently returned to my side."
Chi Feng had already discussed this welcoming banquet with Xia Shuyu in advance to explain why there had been no news about Chi Mingchu in the past ten years.
People in the circle have a lot of wealth and face greater risks than ordinary people. Therefore, they have some belief in metaphysics, and using masters as an excuse is the best choice.
