The news of the arrival of Song Gaoze, the second son of the Song family, spread throughout the country when the Ouyang family sent the invitation letter.
Before the banquet started, many people had already begun to think about how to curry favor with the second son of the Song family.
Knowing that the Ouyang family has a close relationship with the Song family, many people began to try their best to please the Ouyang family, hoping that Ouyang Hongyi could come forward to help introduce them.
On the day of the banquet, the Ouyang family's ancestral house was always bustling with activity.
The only ones who did not go to Ouyang's house before the banquet were the Lin family.
Lin Tianbao didn't even want Lin Ruoxue to go to the banquet.
Something like that happened between the Lin family and the Ouyang family. Now the head of the Ouyang family, Ouyang Hongyi, has come, and even brought the second son of the Song family. It's hard not to think about the reason.
But if you really don't go, you will not only be denying face to the Ouyang family, but also denying face to the Song family.
Offending an Ouyang family has already made it difficult for the Lin family.
Even for the future of the Lin family, Lin Ruoxue had no choice but to go to the banquet.
…
Lin Ruoxue's dress was chosen in a hurry, but she was still stunning after putting it on.
The dark blue fishtail skirt outlines her graceful body curves. Against this dark blue, her fair skin almost glows white.
Her long, slightly curly hair was pulled into a bun, with a few strands of hair hanging down on her long and slender neck, neutralizing the coldness of her body.
But her little face, which seemed to be covered with frost, remained expressionless.
Even if many young people in the family wanted to say hello to her, they couldn't muster the courage after seeing her expression.
This saved Su Chen a lot of trouble.
In the past, he would have had to help Lin Ruoxue fend off many young masters along the way.
It's not as lively now as it used to be.
…
The Ouyang family held the banquet in the banquet hall on the top floor of Shengtai Hotel.
When Lin Ruoxue and Su Chen arrived, many people had already gathered in the banquet hall.
After handing the invitation letter to the service staff at the door, Lin Ruoxue took Su Chen in.
But the male waiter stretched out his hand to stop them.
"What does it mean?"
Lin Ruoxue frowned, her expression already displeased.
The waiter's eyes stayed on Su Chen for a second, and he spoke with a bit of disdain.
"Only the Lin family is invited to this banquet, no one else is allowed in."
Seeing that the male waiter was deliberately making things difficult, Lin Ruoxue's face turned a little ugly.
At this moment, an arrogant voice came from behind the waiter.
"Hey, isn't this Miss Lin?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ouyang Hua appeared in front of Lin Ruoxue and Su Chen with a wine glass and a smile.
After seeing Lin Ruoxue, his eyes brightened obviously, and a look of greed quickly passed through his eyes.
Originally, he had been taught a lesson by Su Chen before, but he had already restrained his thoughts a lot.
But now that Song Gaoze is here, everything is different.
His thoughts, which had been restrained, became active again.
"Master Ouyang."
Even though she felt sick, Lin Ruoxue still treated her politely with a cold face.
After all, the Song family might be inside right now.
Since she had accepted the invitation, there was no need for her to have trouble with Ouyang Hua, a beast like this, on such an occasion.
"What's going on? Why doesn't Miss Lin go in?"
Ouyang Huaxiao looked at Lin Ruoxue and pointed to the banquet hall.
Lin Ruoxue knew that he was asking questions knowingly and had no intention of giving him a good look, so she scolded him playfully.
"This ungrateful thing won't let me in."
Ouyang Hua didn't react at first.
After a few seconds, when he came to his senses, the fake smile on his face disappeared, and the malice in his eyes was no longer concealed.
"Who are you talking about, Miss Lin?"
"What's wrong?"
Lin Ruoxue asked, pretending to be confused, and pointed at the waiter beside her.
"I said where is him, can't I?"
"you……"
Ouyang Hua didn't know that what Lin Ruoxue really wanted to say was herself.
But Lin Ruoxue had said so. Naturally, he couldn't break up now for the sake of his follow-up plan.
He raised his leg and kicked the waiter directly, and he cursed with fierce eyes.
"What's wrong with you? Why don't you let Miss Lin in?"
The waiter looked aggrieved upon hearing this.
"Sir, I did not prevent Miss Lin from entering."
"It's just that this banquet only invited the Lin family. Miss Lin can enter, but the man following her... is not the Lin family!"
"I...I also acted in accordance with the regulations, and I had absolutely no intention of embarrassing Miss Lin!"
This waiter had obviously practiced it, and with a few words he was able to completely brush himself off, and at the same time, he was also yin and yang to Su Chen.
When Ouyang Hua heard this, he glanced at Su Chen with vicious eyes, then his expression dropped and he looked at Lin Ruoxue with a smile again.
"Look, Miss Lin, it's not his fault. It's mainly because of you, the driver, and he's not from your Lin family!"
"you……"
"What's going on? It's so lively!"
Just as Lin Ruoxue was about to retort, a voice as smart as a bird came from behind them.
Before anyone could react, the owner of the voice let out another cheer.
"Su Chen? You're here too!"
Bang!
Just as Su Chen was about to turn around, a petite body rushed into his arms.
He looked down and found that it was An Xiaoyun who was holding him.
"Su Chen, I miss you so much!"
"We just met yesterday."
"Huh, days are like years, do you understand?"
"Anyway, I feel uncomfortable when I can't see you. I feel uncomfortable every minute!"
An Xiaoyun didn't care about other people's eyes at all, and hugged Su Chen with a smile to express her longing for him.
Gu Qingshi, who was walking behind, sighed helplessly.
An Jingwen, who was on the side, even darkened his face.
"Xiaoyun!"
He shouted coldly and signaled An Xiaoyun to let go.
But An Xiaoyun just made a face at him and hugged Su Chen's arm tighter.
Anyway, her brother couldn't defeat Su Chen, so she had nothing to worry about.
Ignoring her brother's gaze from behind, she turned to look at Ouyang Hua, who looked stunned, and raised her slender eyebrows slightly.
"What did you just say? Don't let Su Chen in?"
"I...I..."
Ouyang Hua opened his mouth and his face turned ugly.
He really couldn't understand.
How could the relationship between this driver and the only daughter of the An family become so good in just a few days!
Just because he's a good driver?
This makes him, who has been trying so hard to please An Jia and Gu Jia, really look like a clown!
Thinking of this, Ouyang Hua hated Su Chen even more.
But now in front of the An family and the Gu family, he didn't dare to show anything, so he could only take two steps back with a smile.
"Why are you not allowed in? Everyone can come in, everyone can come in!"
"Huh, that's pretty much it!"
An Xiaoyun snorted lightly and looked at Su Chen with a smile again.
"Su Chen, can you be my dance partner tonight?"
Hearing this, Su Chen coughed lightly and slightly shifted his gaze to look at Lin Ruoxue.
But Lin Ruoxue just gave him a cold look, turned around and walked directly into the banquet hall.
