Chapter 15
Sisi and Xiaoyi, who were taking photos, saw familiar people at the door and frowned: "Why are you two here?"
Xianxian put her hands on her hips proudly and said, "Of course I came here with my dad."
He heard yesterday afternoon that the twins were going to invite Xiao Zhuang to be their guest, and when he got home in the evening, he insisted on coming with his father.
It just so happened that the two families had a good relationship, and after the fathers of both sides contacted each other, he came as he wished the next day.
Linyin also used the same strategy. As long as he acted like a spoiled child, his father would do whatever he wanted.
He walked up to the twins, raised his chin and said proudly, "Huh, unexpected? I came here with my father as well."
Sisi and He Xiaoyi stomped their feet in anger. They clearly only wanted to invite Xiaojiang, so how come there were suddenly two uninvited guests?
Xianxian is a people-pleaser. Seeing the three of them taking pictures, she immediately went over and said, "I want to take a picture too!"
"I won't take a photo with you."
"Then I'll take the photo with Xiaojiang." After saying that, Xianxian pulled Xiaojiang over.
"No! The little zombie is ours." The twins snatched the little zombie back.
Linyin was left out, and he felt a little embarrassed, so he followed and said, "Hey! I want to take a picture too."
There were a few more guests in the house, making it more lively.
Jiang Chen sat upright on the sofa and looked up. The two young men at the door should be the parents of the other two classmates.
After they took their seats, Lei's father introduced them one by one.
"Mr. Jiang, don't be reserved. These two are Xianxian and Linyin's fathers. We are all familiar with each other and are friends."
One of the two fathers opposite has soft blond hair, fair and delicate skin, and exquisite facial features, looking very youthful. If you hadn't told him that he had a child, Jiang Chen would have thought he was just a student.
The other father was tall, about 193cm tall, with long red hair in the shape of lightning, deep and bold facial features, and bronze skin that added a bit of wildness to his temperament. He looked like a free wolf on the grassland with high spirits.
The four fathers sat together, and the atmosphere made Jiang Chen feel a little awkward. Xiao Zhuang attended a class reunion just a few days after entering school. This was also his first time attending a gathering of interstellar people. Although his expression was calm, he was still a little restrained in his heart.
Jiang Chen sat in a very formal posture. It was the first time for the other two people to see someone with Jiang Chen's temperament. His bright facial features were extremely handsome, and his whole body exuded classical charm. He looked like a banished immortal in ancient paintings.
I have to say that every parent in this class is a top beauty.
As the host, Mr. Lei was the first to break the silence. "I've prepared some excellent tea. How about everyone try it together?"
The servants brought tea sets and snacks, and soon the room was filled with the aroma of tea.
Xianxian's father sniffed the tea and then put the cup down. "You know, I can't drink this."
Linyin's father next to him didn't seem to know how to taste tea. He picked up the cup and drank it in one gulp.
Father Lei smiled awkwardly and turned to Jiang Chen: "Mr. Jiang, what do you think?"
Interstellar people are not very good at tasting tea. Drinks like tea have become a luxury, and there are very few people who understand tea.
Jiang Chen can now only smell the fragrance of tea but cannot taste it.
As soon as the tea aroma in the cup comes out, he can tell that the tea is quite good.
In order not to spoil the fun, he took a quick taste.
Although there was no taste in his mouth, he could easily tell the quality of the tea by its smell based on his experience. "This tea has a clear color, a fresh and mellow taste, and a refreshing aftertaste like a cloud of mist..."
Hearing Jiang Chen's reply, Lei's father seemed to have found a kindred spirit. "Mr. Jiang seems to have a deep understanding of tea?"
"I only have a vague understanding." Jiang Chen said modestly.
If he could taste it like before, he could immediately judge the quality of the tea.
The aura that Jiang Chen exudes makes people feel comfortable and peaceful, making it not difficult for the people who meet him for the first time to get along with him.
Soon, Lei's father opened the clip.
With the introduction of Lei's father, Jiang Chen learned that Xianxian's father is the director of the largest robot company in the universe, and his lover is also a senior executive in the military.
Linyin's father is the lord of a star field and has many industries in the Federation. The largest entertainment company in the Federation is under his control.
Lei's father is the director of the largest private security company in the federation.
Just as Jiang Chen expected, the classmates and parents in this class were either rich or noble. On the contrary, his current background was not good enough. He had no industry and no connections in the interstellar world.
Jiang Chen's eyes flashed, and he made a decision instantly. In order to gain a foothold in this world and to protect the little zombie, he must become stronger.
After that, he should make a career and set a good example for Xiao Zhuang.
A children's castle was installed in the living room, and the little zombie was pulled around, and the children's innocent laughter filled the entire room.
…
At the gate of the manor.
Shu Jinye got off the flying car.
He has a very important contract to sign today.
"Mr. Lin, I am looking forward to our cooperation." Shu Jinye successfully completed the task in the study.
He was about to leave when the butler knocked on the door holding a gift box.
"Master, this is a gift from a guest to your wife. Would you like to take a look?"
He always secretly takes a look at the gifts that others give to their lovers.
In the gift box is a porcelain vase given by Jiang Chen.
Shu Jinye couldn't help but glance at the gift box, and his pupils focused instantly.
He has had a strong interest in history since he was a child and is quite knowledgeable about it.
The texture of this porcelain vase definitely looks like it can be traced back to ancient times.
After seeing the treasure, he couldn't contain his excitement. The desire to possess it was so strong that he couldn't help but blurt out, "Boss Lin, can you bear the pain of parting with this porcelain vase?"
"this..."
Being favored by Shu Jinye must be a good thing.
"This was given to my wife by a guest. I have no right to decide."
Shu Jinye's heart was pounding. Faced with such a treasure, he would never allow it to pass by him. The value of this porcelain vase could at least be auctioned at the highest price in history.
Even if it does not enter the market, it still has great collection value.
"Is Mr. Lei's friend still at home? Could Mr. Lin help me meet him?"
He wondered if the owner of this porcelain vase was the same person as the jade hairpin.
The Shu and Lin families often cooperated, and the housekeeper quickly understood what his master meant.
Shu Jinye followed the housekeeper out of the study, and the chattering of children came from the corridor.
He was waiting outside the reception room, where the noisy noise had come from.
When the door of the reception room opened, Shu Jinye looked inside, trying to find the mysterious man.
He glanced around and saw familiar faces everywhere in the hall, except for Jiang Chen, who was sitting on the sofa with his back to the door, whom Shu Jinye couldn't guess.
He stared at the ancient wooden crown on Jiang Chen's head, guessing that the person should be him.
"Master Shu, please wait a moment. I will go and ask Madam for instructions first."
After a while, the housekeeper came out of the house and said, "Master Shu, Madam has to entertain guests today, so it's inconvenient to arrange a meeting. Why don't you make an appointment another day?"
After hearing what the butler said, Shu Jinye was a little unwilling to give up. If he missed it today, he might never have the chance to see her again.
He instantly turned down his afternoon work.
"Take me to see President Lin."
*
The children were making a lot of noise in the living room, and some of them were sweating profusely in the playhouse.
They are playing hide and seek.
The little zombie hugged his knees and huddled up in a ball, hiding in the hollow colorful space capsule.
"I caught you! Hehehe!" When the big cat's fairy quickly pounced on the little zombie, he hugged the little zombie with a proud expression.
After playing for so long, Xiao Zhuang is always the first one to be found.
Xianxian picked up the little zombie and took him out of the space capsule, then continued to catch the other little mice.
He noticed Xiaoyi's bear ears behind the colorful wall. Xiaopang reached out to grab them, but Xiaoyi reacted quickly and ran away screaming, with Xianxian chasing after her.
Seeing that he was about to be caught, Xiaoyi hid behind Xiaozhuang, using Xiaozhuang as a shield, and kept making faces at Xianxian, "Lululu..."
Xiao Zhuang opened his arms and obediently protected Xiao Yi behind him.
"Xiao Zhuang, don't help him." After trying to catch Xiao Yi for a long time, Xianxian became anxious. He rushed forward and knocked Xiao Zhuang and Xiao Yi down together.
"Hey, I caught it."
The three cubs fell to the ground like a pile of monks, and Xiaoyi struggled frantically.
The adults were delighted by their cute appearance.
"Come on, kids, let's go play by the lake."
“Okay~!”
Xiao Zhuang crawled out of Xianxian's arms and rushed towards his father. Jiang Chen picked up Xiao Zhuang and helped him smooth the loose hair on his forehead.
"Did you have fun, little zombie?"
Xiao Zhuang had just been running for a long time and his face was flushed. He nodded gently: "Hmm..."
【Xiao Zhuang likes to play with his classmates.】
Hearing Xiao Jiang's inner voice, Jiang Chen's heart ached. This was a scene he had imagined countless times. In the past, Xiao Jiang had no friends in Dongqi. He played alone in the palace every day and was not like a normal child at all.
Now the little zombie finally showed his innocent side to him.
There is a lake behind the manor.
At noon, Lei's father prepared to have lunch by the lake. There was still some time before the meal, so the adults were fishing by the lake.
The housekeeper installed an inflatable castle for the children in the open space by the lake.
Sisi and Xiaoyi drove out their toy cars.
Xiao Zhuang's eyes lit up when he saw these small cars of various shapes.
There are children's sports cars, flying cars, and even children's excavators and tractors parked at the entrance of the inflatable castle.
What attracts boys the most is the sports car. Xianxian and Linyin are competing to drive the sports car.
"I want to drive a sports car!"
"I want one too!"
Behind them, Xiao Zhuang stared at the small yellow excavator with sparkling eyes.
The other boys all rushed to grab the sports car, but Xiao Zhuang was only interested in the excavator.
His attention was completely attracted by the excavator. As a boy, he was naturally fond of machinery.
The child from ancient times had never seen such a device before, and he walked towards the children's excavator involuntarily.
The children's excavator is easy to operate with only a few buttons. Xiao Zhuang got into the cab, pushed the lever, and the mechanical excavator arm rose up. The excavator started, and Xiao Zhuang was extremely excited.
When the lever is pulled, the digging arm digs a small hole in the turf.
At this time, on the sparkling lake, Jiang Chen's back while fishing was as beautiful as a painting.
Shu Jinye was playing golf with President Lin. At this moment, he was holding the club absent-mindedly, his eyes fixed on the figure by the lake.
