Chapter 115 Dinner Party
"Hehe, that can't be done," Chen Wanqin looked at the slim daughter in front of her, and said with a smile, "In the future, you still have to marry, I can't delay you."
"Yes!" Ye Li on the side also echoed, "Maybe, you can't wait to leave us and marry the one who belongs to you!"
As for who he is, everyone knows it well.
"Dad, what nonsense are you talking about!" Ye Xiyuan said coquettishly, "I'm not that kind of person! I just don't want to marry anyway, and I want to stay by your side for the rest of my life."
"Don't do that." Ye Li joked, "If this is the case, I'm afraid your future husband will be very anxious. However, even if you are married, you are definitely still our sweetheart. Don't forget about your family when you get married."
"I won't!" Ye Xiyuan stuck out her tongue and smiled mischievously, "Whether I marry or not in the future, I love you the most."
Ye Li and Chen Wanqin couldn't help laughing out loud, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot.
At this moment, Ye Xiyuan took the opportunity to say, "So, Dad, Mom, today is my birthday, so let my younger sister come to participate together! Even if the matter was really done by the Ye family couple, it doesn't matter to my younger sister! Back then, she was just a baby."
"You!" Chen Wanqin stretched out her hand, stroked Ye Xiyuan's hair, and smiled helplessly, "You child, you are so kind in your heart."
"Mom, kindness is a good thing!" Ye Xiyuan smiled sweetly, "Besides, I'm just telling the truth. What happened back then really has nothing to do with her. Moreover, we had too many misunderstandings before, so we can just take this opportunity to reconcile."
"You call her sister, but they don't necessarily regard you as a sister." Ye Li snorted, "Also, don't say that she is innocent, isn't the couple from the Ye family doing such a thing for Ye Leng's safety? Since she has enjoyed it for so many years, she shouldn't take responsibility for it!"
"Okay, don't talk about it." Chen Wanqin stretched out her hand, pushed Ye Li, shook her head slightly, and continued, "Since it's Xiyuan's birthday, let her decide for herself! She likes it."
After hearing Chen Wanqin's words, Ye Li didn't say anything more, which meant he acquiesced.
At this moment, the door of the hotel lounge was suddenly pushed open, and an extraordinary handsome man walked in.
"Brother Nangong, why are you here?" Seeing the person coming, Ye Xiyuan immediately raised a sweet smile on her face, stood up and went forward, "When did you come, why didn't anyone come to notify you!"
"Yes!" Ye Li also got up quickly, with a different attitude from Ye Xiyuan. When facing Nangong Xuyao, he still felt extra cautious, "It should be us who went out to meet you in person."
Standing beside Ye Li, Chen Wanqin didn't feel too relaxed.
To them, the Nangong family is a giant, an existence beyond their reach. If it wasn't for their daughter's chance to save the young master of Nangong, it would be absolutely impossible for them to have any intersection with the Nangong family. However, even so, Young Master Nangong knew that only when facing their daughter would he be amiable. When facing them, it's not that they will put on a face, but it will still make them feel a sense of oppression.
"I'm just an ordinary guest who came to the banquet today."
While speaking, Nangong Xuyao looked at Ye Xiyuan, smiled and said, "Happy birthday!"
"Thank you, Brother Nangong." Ye Xiyuan looked very happy, but she was still very measured, "I am very happy that you can come today."
Looking at the well-behaved girl in front of him, a trace of tenderness flashed across Nangong Xuyao's eyes. He took out a box from his pocket, opened it, and handed it to Ye Xiyuan, "This is a birthday present for you. Do you like it? If you don't like it, I'll ask someone to find you another better one."
After getting along for this period of time, he clearly realized what kind of person this girl in front of him was. Cute and sensible, innocent and kind, but without losing the atmosphere. Although she grew up in an ordinary small family, she has the temperament trained by a wealthy family in every gesture she makes.
Although it can't be said that he has a deep-rooted love now, he really likes the girl in front of him. Of course, the most important reason for this is because of the life-saving grace.
At that time, he thought that he was really going to leave this world, but it was the girl in front of him who rescued him. Like an angel, she appeared when he was at his worst and gave him redemption.
Ye Xiyuan looked at the box in front of her, and there was a necklace lying quietly inside. It was a diamond necklace, and the pendant was an angel's wings, with a pink diamond inlaid in the middle. The diamond was about two carats. However, judging from the brilliance and purity of the diamond, it is definitely a top pink diamond.
It can be seen that this necklace is very valuable, at least, it is more than enough to change a house in the imperial capital.
Ye Li and Chen Wanqin on the side were also taken aback when they saw Nangong Xuyao take out such an expensive gift.
Chen Wanqin looked at her daughter worriedly. She was a bystander, so she could see clearly. This young master of Nangong definitely has plans for Xiyuan. After all, no man would give such an expensive gift to a girl he doesn't like. She didn't know how her daughter felt about the young master of Nangong, but she knew very well that it was very difficult for their family to climb up to the Nangong family. However, she felt that her husband should be very happy! After all, if they really climb up to the Nangong family, then their Ye family will definitely rise.
Just as Chen Wanqin expected, Ye Li's heart was about to jump out at this moment. He is a man, so he naturally understands Young Master Nangong who is a man. It was because of this that he was happy in his heart. During this period of time, thanks to the help of Young Master Nangong, their Ye family has received a lot of orders. During this period of time, their Yip's stock price has been rising almost every day. At that time, if Xiyuan really gets together with Young Master Nangong, it will be just around the corner for their Ye family to squeeze into a first-class wealthy family.
"Brother Nangong, this gift is too expensive for me to accept." Ye Xiyuan declined, "I am already very happy that you can come to my birthday party today. So, take this gift back! If you really want to give me a gift, then invite me to the first dance later!"
"Since the gift has already been sent, I will never take it back." Nangong Xuyao refused to accept the rejection. He directly took out the necklace, came to Ye Xiyuan's back, and put it on for her. "I specially ordered someone to make it for you, just to celebrate your birthday. So, you must accept it. Otherwise, you just don't welcome me."
Ye Xiyuan couldn't resist Nangong Xuyao's toughness, so she could only let the other party wear the necklace for herself, but in the end she said, "Then I will accept it this time, but next time, you can't give such an expensive gift."
"Okay." Nangong Xuyao replied, but it's up to him to decide whether he will give a gift next time, "Although you have already accepted the gift, I have made a reservation for the first dance!"
"Brother Nangong is so flattering, how could I refuse!" Ye Xiyuan smiled brilliantly.
At this moment, there were a few knocks on the door suddenly, and the door was pushed open again.
Ye Anyun walked in, and when he saw the situation inside, he couldn't help being stunned.
"An Yun, what's the matter?" Ye Li stepped forward and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
"Dad, Mom, it's getting late, should we go out first?" Then he looked at Ye Xiyuan, and immediately noticed the necklace on Ye Xiyuan's neck.
However, he had good eyesight and didn't ask anything.
Soon, the dinner party began. A family of four appeared in the banquet hall.
Ye Xiyuan was like a princess adored by the stars, becoming the most eye-catching presence in the banquet. This is the scene she had dreamed of in her previous life, and now it has finally come true.
Today, she will completely trample Ye Leng'an under her feet.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but began to look around, looking for Ye Leng'an. But, to her surprise, she didn't see it.
"Xiyuan, what's the matter?" Ye Anyun, who was holding Ye Xiyuan's hand at the moment, naturally noticed Ye Xiyuan's actions, and he was a little puzzled, "What are you looking for?"
"No," Ye Xiyuan shook her head, with a slightly downcast tone, "I invited my sister over today, but I don't seem to see her."
After hearing Ye Xiyuan's words, Ye Anyun was a little surprised, but at the same time he didn't understand, "How did you think of inviting Leng An over? After all, between you—"
For Ye Leng'an, his feelings are somewhat complicated. Unlike his parents, after Ye Leng'an left Ye's house, there was no direct conflict between him and Ye Leng'an. However, because of his family's dislike for Ye Leng'an, he still had some thoughts. But not as strongly disgusted as the parents.
As for the younger sister Ye Xiyuan, he really loves her. Because through this period of getting along, he felt that Xiyuan was really a very kind girl, but she got along very well with him and never quarreled. He likes this sister very much.
However, he still couldn't understand Ye Xiyuan's invitation to Ye Leng'an today. Leaving aside their embarrassing experience of being hugged wrong, their birthdays are still on the same day. But at this time, Ye Leng'an was invited over. If he didn't know Xiyuan well enough, he might really think that the other party did this just to show off.
"You—" Ye Anyun said something, but he didn't say it in the end. He just sighed and said helplessly, "Just as long as you're happy."
He felt that Ye Xiyuan's idea was destined to fail today. After all, he didn't think his parents had any feelings for Ye Leng'an.
Ye Xiyuan had a decent smile on her mouth, but she was still connected with the system in her heart.
"System, is Ye Lengan here?" Ye Xiyuan was a little anxious, "Can you find out where she is now?"
The mechanical voice sounded coldly, "The system can only detect that there is no Ye Leng'an in the venue."
Hearing such an answer, Ye Xiyuan was not surprised, but she was still a little dissatisfied in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it.
At the same time, she was also a little anxious, afraid that Ye Leng'an would not come today. You know, today she prepared a big gift for Ye Leng'an. If Ye Lengan can't get over it, it will be difficult to find opportunities in the future.
On the other side, Ye Leng'an, who was being talked about by Ye Xiyuan, was still at home at the moment.
She is wearing a simple red dress with a slim design without too many decorations, showing her beautiful figure to the fullest. Against the backdrop of the bright red dress, Ye Leng'an's originally alluring face was even more charming at this moment.
She didn't wear makeup, but that delicate face was many times more beautiful than makeup.
Looking at Ye Leng'an who was going downstairs, Mrs. Zhuang felt a little strange, "Miss Ye, it's almost time for dinner, are you going out now?"
"Well, I'm going to a banquet." Ye Leng'an nodded, "I'll eat dinner when I get back, and then you can cook it again! You can eat what you cooked now!"
Although she was going to Ye Xiyuan's birthday dinner, she felt that she wouldn't be able to eat enough on such an occasion. Perhaps, she might not even have the chance to eat there! Moreover, she didn't intend to stay until the end, so she still had to eat dinner when she came back.
"Huh?" After hearing Ye Leng'an's words, Mrs. Zhuang was a little stunned, but she quickly replied, "Okay, Miss Ye, I still know."
She didn't understand what happened to Miss Ye going to the dinner party at this time and coming back for dinner later. However, she still kept in mind the lesson from last time, it's better for her not to talk too much about things she shouldn't ask.
Ye Leng'an nodded, and then walked away. Originally, she had made an appointment to go there with Huangfu Ruiling, but just now Huangfu Ruiling called and said that she would be able to go there later. She didn't care, so she passed by alone.
After Ye Leng'an left, Aunt Zhuang went back to her room and called Li Qiaomeng out for dinner.
Seeing the dazzling array of dishes on the table, Li Qiaomeng was surprised, "Mom, what happened today? How could you cook such delicious dishes! We ate enough today!"
All along, Mrs. Zhuang has been very measured. Her own diet is separate from Ye Leng'an's diet. Although they can prepare together, she is a servant after all, so she can't squander the master's things so recklessly!
However, even though they are separated, her food is not bad, but it is not as rich as Miss Ye, and the ingredients used are not so expensive.
"Wow! Mom, it's a big lobster!" Li Qiaomeng sat down unceremoniously at this time, and began to feast on it, "What's going on with you today! Didn't you refuse to use these expensive ingredients for yourself before? Why is it abalone again today? It's Wagyu again?"
Such an illusion really made her think that she was the master of the house. In a luxurious villa, eat an expensive and exquisite dinner.
"What are you talking about! This is for Miss Ye Ye." Mrs. Zhuang also sat down and said with a smile, "Miss Ye forgot to explain before. She is going to the dinner party today, so she will eat later."
"Dinner?" Li Qiaomeng suddenly felt that the sumptuous food in front of her was no longer delicious, "What kind of banquet is it? Or is it like the kind of rich banquet shown on TV?"
Dinner parties and the like, she only watched them on TV. That was the scene she dreamed of. In the banquet hall, men in suits and leather shoes, and women in all kinds of gorgeous evening gowns, exchanged cups and exchanged cups.
"I don't know about that either," Mrs. Zhuang shook her head, "That's someone else's business, how could I ask such detailed questions!"
Li Qiaomeng curled her lips and didn't ask any more questions. But at this moment, her mind has already flown away.
In the banquet hall, after Ye Li finished speaking, Nangong Xuyao stepped forward to invite Ye Xiyuan to dance the first dance.
Ye Xiyuan naturally did not refuse, she put her hand on Nangong Xuyao's, and the two slowly slid onto the dance floor.
On the dance floor, the two men and women looked like a pair of golden boys and girls.
The person present is not a human being. Some people were already very surprised when they saw Nangong Xuyao appearing just now. Although the Nangong family was not within their reach, they still met this young master Nangong by chance.
The news that the young master of the Nangong family came to the Ye family's young daughter's birthday dinner today, and danced the first dance with the Ye family's young daughter, quickly spread in the banquet hall.
Suddenly, everyone began to get to know the Ye family again. One must know that it is impossible for a wealthy family of the Ye family to have any connection with the Nangong family. However, the appearance of the young master Nangong now means that the Ye family has already entered the eyes of the Nangong family!
Thinking again, Ye's development seems to be very rapid recently. Ye seems to have won some projects that their class could not get at all. Among them, is there any handwriting from the Nangong family? If this is the case, then they really need to re-evaluate Ye's value.
All of a sudden, many people went up to Ye Liwei, calling out one after another, looking like they were very familiar, and there was even a hint of flattery in their tone.
Yeli felt that this time should be his most glorious moment so far. Those people came forward to flatter him one after another, making him feel that the Ye family is above these enterprises.
At this moment, everyone was smiling, except for a person in the corner, who didn't have any smile on his face, and even had a hint of gloom on his face. This is none other than Li Deze.
Ever since he met Ye Xiyuan, he has been deeply attracted. He knew very well that he fell in love with Ye Xiyuan, that considerate girl. He has always believed that the marriage between the Li family and the Ye family will happen sooner or later, and it is also tacit.
But during this period of time, Ye Xiyuan suddenly treated him a lot colder. He also rejected all his invitations, and never went out alone with him again. He didn't understand why this happened, but now he totally understood.
However, he did not have any qualifications to step forward to question. Because, everything is just what he thought, and the two families have never talked about marriage. Moreover, in fact, compared with the young master of the Nangong family, he does not have any advantages. No matter who it is, when facing him and Young Master Nangong, he will choose the latter!
However, even so, he still wants to find a chance to ask clearly, he wants to let himself completely give up.
After dancing the first dance, Li Deze finally couldn't help it, found an opportunity, stepped forward and invited, "Xiyuan, I don't know if I have the honor to invite you to dance!"
Such a sudden move stunned everyone.
Because none of the people present were blind, they could naturally see the ambiguity between Ye Xiyuan and Young Master Nangong. It is impossible to say that the two of them have nothing. Therefore, everyone also tacitly agreed that this Ye Xiyuan belonged to the Young Master Nangong.
Isn't Li Deze's actions now just a blatant robbing of Nangong Young Master? This courage is really big enough!
Ye Li's complexion was not very good. He was very unhappy with Li Deze's abrupt behavior at the moment. Of course he knew that Li Deze liked his daughter. If there is no young master Nangong, then the Li family is also a good marriage partner. A strong alliance can definitely create more benefits.
However, with the appearance of the young master Nangong, the Li family will definitely not be able to get into his eyes. Li Deze's actions now, in his opinion, are intended to destroy the relationship between Ye Xiyuan and Nangong Young Master.
The parents of the Li family were anxious. They didn't expect that their son would dare to do such a thing. You know, today is different from the past, Ye Xiyuan is the young master of Nangong's fancy, their Li family's small family, how can they compare with the Nangong family!
Now that Li Deze has done such a thing, if the young master of Nangong vents his anger on the Li family, what should we do!
As the party involved, Ye Xiyuan was stunned for a moment when she saw the hand that suddenly appeared in front of her, but she quickly recovered. She glanced at Nangong Xuyao beside her, "Brother Nangong, let me dance with Brother Deze first!"
After finishing speaking, she smiled mischievously at Li Deze, "Brother Deze, you are like my own brother. Now that my brother invites me, as a younger sister, I will naturally not refuse."
