Zhao Jinyu leaned against the guardrail of the balcony, blowing the chilly breeze of the early winter night. While looking up at the rare twinkling stars in the clear night sky, she guessed at the identities of the two people walking over from the other side of the floor-to-ceiling window. .
"Ms. Liu, good evening!" It was originally a normal greeting, but because of the speaker's tone, the ordinary greeting contained a kind of frivolous ridicule.
Liu Qian'er didn't seem to hear the ridicule in Zheng Xiaolong's words, and replied politely, "Master Long, good evening, nice to meet you!"
"Really?" Zheng Xiaolong said in a long voice, paused for a moment, and then continued, "You play the piano well. If you didn't tell me, I would have thought you were a popular star of some company!"
I don’t know if Zheng Xiaolong said this simply to praise Liu Qier’s good piano skills, or if he said it deliberately. But for Liu Qier, who has been working hard to become a famous lady, hearing that she is compared to a star actor is obviously not something that makes her happy.
Although Zheng Xiaolong's tone of voice was a bit weird, it was normal if he didn't say what he said. Zhao Jinyu couldn't help but laugh after listening to it for a while. She laughed to herself that she was really bored and wasn't ready to listen any more. I was still thinking that if I went in at this time and was seen by those two people, I didn't know what the expressions on their faces would be like. Unexpectedly, as I listened, the conversation between the two slowly changed.
"Why is this beautiful woman running into this corner? She thinks she has no face to see people? Tsk, tsk, even if she comes to her door, she won't be surprised!" He didn't dare to say too much to Zhao Jinyu. He didn't have to worry about an illegitimate daughter of the Liu family who was gradually declining.
Liu Qian'er wanted to get angry and curse, but she just thought about the gap between the Liu family and the Zheng family. She could only suppress her emotions desperately, and then said calmly, "I just like music. It's not as complicated as you think, Mr. Long."
Zheng Xiaolong couldn't help but sneered, "Hey, you like music? What an excuse! Actually, you should learn from Zhao Jinyu's mother and learn how his mother did it back then. The husband will cook the rice and give birth to a son. Then the mother will have a son. Zigui, maybe you can really marry into the Chen family! Anyway, you two have the same status, so don’t dislike the other, this is a perfect match!"
"Young Master Long, it doesn't matter what you say about me. Isn't it too much for you to say this to a deceased person? Aunt Zhao back then..."
Zhao Jinyu opened the floor-to-ceiling window and interrupted Liu Qianer's words, "I never thought that Xianci deserves such attention from Mr. Long!"
It's not that he doesn't know what people are saying about Zhao Qianxue in private. As long as it's not too much, he mostly treats it as ignorance. Now that I heard Zheng Xiaolong say this, I couldn't stay silent anymore. Zhao Qianxue did not do the right thing by giving birth to a child out of wedlock, and she could not tolerate being humiliated like this by an outsider. Forget it if he didn't hear it. If he still endures it, he is not a son of man in vain.
Zheng Xiaolong looked at the glass door that was suddenly opened in front of him in surprise. Thinking that what he had just said was that he was talking behind someone's back, and he felt very embarrassed for a moment.
He disliked Zhao Jinyu very much and couldn't help but want to stab him a few times when he saw him. However, it was just a quarrel between juniors and could be dismissed as insignificant. Talking about someone else's deceased elder behind his back was another case. thing.
Then he suddenly thought that just now he was wondering why Liu Qier came to this corner. She was probably chasing someone. No wonder she had been helping Zhao Jinyu just now. Could it be that she thought she could win Zhao Jinyu's favor in this way?
While Zheng Xiaolong was still thinking about how to resolve the current embarrassing situation, Zhao Jinyu had already walked over, hugged him affectionately towards the balcony, and said with a smile, "Since Mr. Long cares so much about Xianci, why don't we go outside and have a good time?" Let’s talk?!”
Zhao Jinyu's hand seemed to be just gently resting on Zheng Xiaolong's shoulder, but he did not allow him to refuse at all, and could not refuse, and directly led the person to the small space of the balcony.
Liu Qian'er looked at Zhao Jinyu as if he didn't see her presence at all, and couldn't help shouting, "Master Yu!" She came to this corner just now because she had been paying attention to Zhao Jinyu's whereabouts, and wanted to take advantage of this rare opportunity. The two of them had the opportunity to chat privately, but they didn't expect to be ruined by Zheng Xiaolong.
Even though Liu Qian'er is very beautiful, it is not easy for her to marry high, and she knows this too. Although a person's background is no longer as important as it used to be, most families still pay attention to being well-matched, especially those from powerful families, who value this even more.
She also knew that her status as an illegitimate daughter was a flaw. Unless she married low, it would be extremely difficult to marry high. The help the Liu family could give was very limited, so she had to find a way to seize the opportunity by herself.
Marrying at a low age is easy, but Liu Baocheng is not willing to do so, and even Liu Qian'er is not willing to do so. She has always believed that among the sisters of the Liu family, she is far ahead of them both in terms of external conditions and internal cultivation. .
Just because she was not born to her father's legal wife, no matter how good she was and how favored she was by her father, she could not enter the Liu family. This was something that made her particularly resentful, so she hoped more than others to marry into a high family and let Liu Everyone in the family looks up to him.
Liu Qian'er doesn't have to be Zhao Jinyu, but among the current targets, the Chen family has better conditions, and they are of the same age. The most important thing is that they feel that Zhao Jinyu's background is not that glorious, but he is very suitable for Chen. The family loves them, and if the two of them can be together, it will be more beneficial to them.
It's good for Liu Laosan and his "family of three" to think that whether things will really develop as they expected, no one has expected it yet, but these are things for now, and no conclusion can be made yet.
But after arriving at the scene, I found that there were so many beauties here today. I don't know whether they were attracted by the Chen Lihui brothers, or there were many others who, like them, paid attention to Zhao Jinyu.
Liu Qian'er just wanted to find an opportunity to have a few words with Zhao Jinyu in private, hoping to exchange phone numbers with each other so that we could contact each other in the future. Unexpectedly, Zheng Xiaolong ruined it, but she couldn't do anything to him, which made her even more upset. She was frustrated.
Now she saw Zhao Jinyu taking Zheng Xiaolong to the balcony, and wondered whether to follow him, but when she saw the glass door that Zhao Jinyu had just closed, he was very cold to her and did not dare to step forward.
No matter how large the area of the entire banquet hall is, it is still limited. This is a slightly remote location in the hall. In addition, there is a beauty like Liu Qianer standing here, which is still very eye-catching, especially for male compatriots. look.
After a while, several men moved here intentionally or unintentionally. Since they were standing together, they always wanted to find some topics to talk about. Liu Qianer dealt with the people who came to strike up a conversation absentmindedly, and glanced towards the balcony from time to time. .
In order to wait for Zhao Jinyu, Hu Feng and the others did not go far around here. They just met Xiao Liang, who was from the same school, and they got together to chat for a while.
After Xiao Liang walked away, Fang Yubo curled his lips and whispered, "I have lived on the same floor for more than a year. I didn't know until today that he can be so enthusiastic!"
Hu Feng naturally understood what Fang Yubo meant, but he didn't say anything, he just smiled. It's human nature, no wonder Xiao Liang would be like this.
Xiao Liang was a bit arrogant, and he always ignored his classmates in school who had lower status and background than him. A few days ago at school, they heard someone say that Xiao Liang was bragging about some banquet he was going to attend with a friend, and his words were quite complacent. Now that he saw Hu Feng and others who had always been ignored by him here, and seeing that the two of them were very close to the protagonists of today's banquet, he naturally had the urge to come forward and talk.
Fang Yubo didn't expect Hu Feng to say anything. He raised his hand and looked at the time and found that more than ten minutes had passed and Jin Yu hadn't come out yet. He said with some surprise, "When did Jin Yu talk so much? After talking to Zixuan for so long, Go take a look?" Then without waiting for Hu Feng to agree, he pulled him to the balcony.
When Liu Qier saw Fang Yubo going to pull the glass door, she was about to say something to stop her. However, thinking about the close relationship she had just seen between them, she wanted to know what would happen between Zhao Jinyu and Zheng Xiaolong, and she swallowed what she was about to say. Went back.
But just as Fang Yubo put his hand on the glass door, before he could make another move, the glass door was pulled open from the outside.
As soon as he saw Zhao Jinyu, Fang Yubo rushed to say before he could speak, "What are you talking to Zixuan about? You've been talking for so long?"
Zhao Jinyu did not answer immediately, but pointed at Zheng Xiaolong who was leaning against the balcony guardrail and said, "I just chatted with Zixuan for a few words. I just saw Mr. Long and felt that we were more compatible, so I couldn't help but chat a few more times." "Sentence. Isn't that right, Mr. Long?" The latter sentence was said while looking at Zheng Xiaolong.
Zheng Xiaolong had a frightened expression on his face. When he saw the look he was looking at him, he couldn't help but step back. Especially when he saw the same smile on Zhao Jinyu's face that had made many people feel like spring breeze, the shock on his face The fear was even worse than before, and for a moment, she didn't even bother to answer his questions.
Zhao Jinyu couldn't help but chuckle when she saw Zheng Xiaolong's blank expression, was she so scary? Could it be that he went too far just now and scared people silly?
His chuckle finally woke up Zheng Xiaolong. Seeing that this person was still waiting for his answer, he nodded hurriedly without caring about anything else. Now, this is the same person who says the earth is flat and the sun rises in the west every day, and he raises his hand in agreement.
Fang Yubo saw that when he first met half an hour ago, he was a high-spirited, dignified and proud person, so he chatted with Jin Yu for a while, and the conversation ended like this. He really wanted to ask Jin Yu, what did you guys talk about just now? Horrifying content, can scare people like this?
But looking at the increasingly beautiful smile on Jin Yu's face, he felt that it would be better for him to shut up. The angrier this person is, the more beautiful he smiles.
Zhao Jinyu was very happy to see that Fang Yubo was so knowledgeable. Before leaving, she went over to pat Zheng Xiaolong on the shoulder and left a message, "I had a great time chatting with you just now, Mr. Long, let's chat next time!"
Zheng Xiaolong's whole body stiffened, and he felt that his future life was gloomy.
