Chapter 353 First Meeting
Everyone at the table remained silent.
The main thing is that I don’t know what to say, and I don’t know how to say it. I feel like no matter what I say, it’s like playing an intellectual game with a fool.
The first thing Lin Yanxin saw when she came in was Lu Shiman
She rested her chin lazily, and Ji Linshen's knuckles were gently scraping the hair behind her ear.
Qin Jiaojiao said something to her with a cute look on her face, and Ji Linshen looked at her with a doting look.
Lu Jianheng, Xie Yi, and the young master of the Lin family who were sitting opposite her were all gazing at her with smiles on their faces.
The pain of her nails digging into the soft flesh of her palm woke her up.
She couldn't understand why everyone had to revolve around Lu Shiman?
She is obviously willful and domineering, so why does she get all the attention so easily?
She strained with all her might, but could only barely reach her starting point.
She felt jealous and resentful. Wasn't Lu Shiman just born into a good family?
If it were you...
The more I think about it, the harder it is to get over the resentment in my heart.
Father Lu naturally also saw his two unfilial children.
He glanced quickly over them, not daring to look at Lu Shiman and Lu Jianheng. He was afraid that every time he looked at them, the regret in his heart would grow stronger.
You can live a life of ease and respect, with no worries about food and clothing.
How did it turn out like this?
"She's sick, why is she holding hands when they're getting engaged? It's not like they're getting married." Qin Jiaojiao complained in a low voice.
"Besides, if you want to save someone, you should save your own father. It's no use saving someone else's father." Lin Siye said.
"Then we have to find a psychic to ask and see if we can invite him up." Lu Jianheng stared at Lu's father, his mood was indescribably complicated.
"Keep it simple, send them all down." Ji Linshen's casual words successfully silenced everyone at the table.
Lin Siye silently moved his stool closer to Lu Jianheng.
Xie Yi's attention was all on Lu Shiman, and he was actually a little worried about her.
After all, her father was acting as a father to an outsider and was absent from the life of her, his biological daughter.
If his father called someone else his son, he would definitely be very sad.
So, she must be very sad.
Looking at Lu Shiman's calm face, Xie Yi guessed that her sadness must be hidden deep in her heart.
She must be longing for fatherly love.
He couldn't bear to see Lu Shiman sad, because she was his sister.
"Lu Shiman, how about I be your father?" Xie Yi suddenly said.
Ji Linshen, Lu Jianheng, and Qin Jiaojiao cursed at the same time: "You are sick."
The three people who had no tacit understanding between them now rarely had tacit understanding in this regard.
Xie Yi was scolded and kept quiet.
On the stage, Fu Boyang appeared from somewhere and was standing there with a smile in his eyes.
"Third brother, where is the gift you prepared?" Lu Shiman suddenly remembered the purpose of his visit today.
Lu Jianheng's lips curled up slightly, and he leaned back lazily in his chair, crossed his long legs, and drank his wine wantonly: "Don't worry, the best show should naturally be saved for the finale."
Hearing what his third brother said, Lu Shiman became even more curious.
Qin Fangfei sat at the table in the corner, staring at Ji Linshen not far away. She was actually attracted to him the last time she was at the door of the bar.
It was just that she was arrogant at that time and didn't take Ji Linshen seriously at all, but she only realized it now.
Ji Linshen is so handsome.
If she could be with Ji Linshen, then she...
Thinking of this, Qin Fangfei's face began to flush, especially when she saw him lazily leaning back in the chair, twirling her earlobe with his fingers, his eyes full of doting, which made her even more distracted.
Lin Yanxin came down to the stage with the help of Lu's father, and spoke with great emotion about handing Lin Yanxin over to the other party.
Lu Shiman didn’t know what others thought, but she was clenching her toes.
Lin Yanxin's eyes were red as she held Fu Boyang's hand.
His brows were slightly furrowed, the corners of his eyes drooped in disgust, and his gaze darted back and forth in the banquet hall.
The light from the crystal chandelier swept across the crowd and finally stopped on Qin Fangfei in the corner.
Huo Beiyan knew that she was still somewhat concerned about her parents, so he held her hand and squeezed it gently.
Qin Jiaojiao snapped back to her senses, her eyelashes fluttering and catching bits of light. She tilted her head back and met the man's eyes, which were filled with tenderness. A dimple immediately formed at the corner of her mouth. "It's okay."
Pierced by her smile, Huo Beiyan's heartbeat began to accelerate uncontrollably.
His Jiaojiao looks best in this bright and beautiful look.
Suddenly, melodious violin music rang out in the banquet hall, and the gilded door slowly opened.
Ji Linshen was leaning over to help Lu Shiman adjust her pearl earrings. His warm breath brushed across her earlobe, but the moment she raised her eyes, her body froze, and her fingers on the back of the chair suddenly curled up.
The silhouette of the figure coming against the light gradually became clearer. The platinum watch chain exposed from the pocket of Ji Liangxing's gray suit flashed in the cold light, and the pace of his leather shoes stepping on the marble floor was deliberately slowed down.
His gaze passed through the crowd of people clinking glasses, sticky malice shot out from under his swollen eyelids, and his lips slowly opened and closed to make the shape of "Long time no see".
Ji Linshen's fingers, which were gripping the pearl earrings, suddenly tightened. Lu Shiman hissed in pain before he regained consciousness.
He took her into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head to block her view: "Are you cold?" His voice was so steady that no one could hear anything unusual.
Ji Zhongmou followed behind Ji Liangxing, with a sticky smile in the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and his gaze slid from Ji Linshen to Lu Shiman.
Ji Liangxing raised his legs and walked towards Ji Linshen, and every step he took was like a poisonous snake shedding its skin.
His sticky gaze crawled over the guests in the hall and finally landed on Lu Shiman.
Ji Linshen held Lu Shiman in his arms, the gloom in his eyes almost turning into reality.
Ji Liangxing stopped three steps away from Ji Linshen's table, his mouth curled up in an exaggerated arc: "Xiao Shen..." The hoarse ending sound ground in his throat: "I haven't seen you for two years, and you don't say hello to your uncle when you see him?"
Huo Beiyan's cold gaze fell on the two of them.
Ji Linshen rubbed his knuckles slowly and suddenly chuckled: "After you die, I can consider burning some paper for you on the seventh day."
Ji Liangxing's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his blue-white knuckles knocked on the turntable of the dining table: "Xiao Shen, don't be too angry."
He suddenly reached for the silver fork in front of Lu Shiman, and the bulging veins on the back of his skinny hand brushed against her scattered hair. "Aren't you going to introduce me to Uncle San?"
Ji Linshen picked up the red wine clamp from the ice bucket and pressed it against his wrist, the metal teeth digging into his old skin.
Lu Shiman suddenly grabbed Ji Linshen's tense forearm, and gently stroked his bulging veins with his fingertips twice.
She looked up at Ji Liangxing and smiled innocently: "Hello, you look like a eunuch in a TV drama."
