I quickly took out the mirror to fix my makeup, while Sheng Yun looked at me with a smile: "When it's quiet, you seem like a person."
"Do you look like a ghost when you're not quiet?" I replied snappily.
He smiled faintly, looked at me and said, "Uncle's brother-in-law set up this meal at Qian Kun Palace tonight, so we have no choice but to come and support him."
"Uncle?" What brother-in-law? " I was confused.
"Your boss, Zhou Yihai, repeatedly stressed that although you're not his sister, you're better than his sister." Sheng Yun had an enigmatic smile on his face.
"Don't listen to his nonsense." I was speechless. Zhou Yihai's ability to see through opportunities was at the peak of perfection.
"As long as you two don't have any other relationship, that's good," he suddenly said in a quiet voice, "As for brother and sister …" "Yes."
When I was done with my lipstick, he helped me out of the car and motioned for me to put my arm around his arm. When I refused, he said in a neutral tone, "You're pregnant now. Don't be so willful."
I had nothing to say, so I took his arm.
Qian Kun Palace … Zhou Yihai was quite generous. To set up a table here, one would need to at least charge several million membership cards to be able to enter and exit the restaurant. Furthermore, after a meal, it would easily cost a hundred thousand gold coins, and several million gold coins could only be considered as entry level here.
Zhou Yihai, who had always been shrewd and scheming, had put in a lot of effort this time.
When we arrived at the gate of the VIP black diamond box at Qian Kun Palace, Sheng Yun narrowed his eyes in satisfaction: "Uncle is really generous."
Inside the ancient box, two maids dressed in the uniform of the Lu and Tang dynasties gracefully arrived, pushing open the door for us. The structure of this VIP black diamond box was no less than the majestic palace in the TV dramas.
Sheng Yun's face was still heavy and calm. He grabbed my hand and casually walked inside.
Zhou Yihai immediately came out to welcome them after hearing the footsteps. He rubbed his hands and said excitedly, "Aiya, you finally came. I was just worried when I was waiting here. I was just worried that you wouldn't come over."
"How could that be?" Sheng Yun slightly nodded, shook hands with Zhou Yihai, and then in front of Zhou Yihai, put his arm around my waist.
"Zhou, you're wasting too much money." I quickly got used to the situation and told Zhou Yihai.
"What are you talking about? I find the level of inviting Director Sheng to this kind of place too low. I'm just afraid that Director Sheng won't come." Zhou Yihai said with a smile as he welcomed us to our seats.
"In the evening, I ordered the entire Han Dynasty. It was said that the ancestors of the chefs here were the imperial chefs. The Han Dynasty was the most delicious, and many people came because of this name. Director Sheng, Shubei, don't be polite with me tonight. You can have whatever you want to eat or drink! " Zhou Yihai said in a flattering manner.
"Zhou, I've been away for so long, but my job …" I asked, a little uneasily.
After working for so long, apart from the official holidays and Zhou Yihai's permission for my vacation, I never suddenly lost my position. Even if I had something to do, I would greet them in advance. This time, it was all an accident.
"Well, what's the job now? Don't worry, I won't be able to move your position. "You are pregnant right now, so you should put your work aside first. I will take care of it. I will approve all the holidays you can take, just don't resign." Zhou Yihai said with a smile. The way he looked at me now was full of reverence, as if I was already Sheng Yun's fiancee.
"With me here, why should I worry about work?" Sheng Yun said in a light tone. Then, the sound of footsteps came from outside. From the sound of it, it was the sound of a woman stepping on her heels.
When I looked up, Xia Yiwa opened the curtain, and saw Sheng Yun and I were both sitting at the table, her eyes were dazed for a moment, but then she suddenly became happy, she walked over and grabbed my hand, and said: "Shubei, I've finally met you! I'm so worried that I can't get through to your phone these days! "I didn't expect you to go to America to have a baby without any news!"
Calm the baby?! I was stunned again.
"Bro, I won't say anything else. Seeing you two together, I am happy for you! " Xia Yiwa looked at Sheng Yun and said.
"Thank you." Sheng Yun replied with two words, seemingly agreeing to everything.
"Yiwa, how have you been recently?" I saw her lower her head, so I asked. I understood everything that was on her mind, but I still hurt her emotionally.
"It's pretty good. Everything is progressing smoothly at the company. Director Zhou and Shang Yang have both helped me a lot." Xia Yiwa said with a smile.
"It's been so short?" I couldn't help but ask.
"No, I want to wait for your return before I open the store." She looked at me, and said rather sadly, "Didn't we agree that no matter what happens, we have to go through it together with each other?"
From her words, I heard a little complaint. She probably thought that I had long known about the pregnancy, but hidden it from her, secretly ran to the United States with Sheng Yun right?!
"Mm, yes." I don't know how to explain the whole thing to her. It's too complicated.
Xia Yiwa smiled magnanimously and sat down beside me. She smiled happily and asked Zhou Yihai: "Zhou, is there anyone else? "If not, then let's hurry up and serve them up. I'm starving to death."
"Let's wait a little while longer. Boss Xu and the others haven't arrived yet. They will be here soon. Calm down." I'll ask the waiter to serve some snacks first. You guys eat some first, and rest your stomachs. " After Zhou Yihai said that, he rang the bell.
"What?" I immediately stood up from my seat, "Zhou, did you still call Xu Changsheng?"
"Yeah, now that our three families are partners, we naturally can't leave them behind." Zhou Yihai said naturally.
I'm a little excited. I don't know what I'm going to do when I see them again. I have an urge to leave.
Sheng Yun quietly held my hand and pulled me down. He whispered into my ear, "Don't worry. With me here, they won't dare to do anything."
Just as Sheng Yun finished his sentence, I saw Xu Tianyi open the curtains of the room and casually walk in. When he saw me, his face went white.
"You … Why are you here? "Xu Shubei!" His voice faltered slightly.
"Cousin, we meet again. What about your parents? " I slowly stood up from my seat. Sheng Yun held my hand and shook it lightly twice. I turned a deaf ear and said, "Don't tell me you don't dare to come?"
"Who said we don't dare to come?!" Just as I said that, I saw Xu Changsheng and Huang Xiaoxiang walk in. Xu Changsheng was still dressed in his business suit whereas Huang Xiaoxiang was wearing a yellow shitty skirt with piles of meat piled on her waist.
"Xu Shubei, you're still alive …" When Huang Xiaoxiang saw me, her face turned white, and she almost blurted out, as if something had been verified.
"Auntie," I said, gritting my teeth and squeezing a touch of affection out of them, "I didn't expect you to have the face to come to me."
Sheng Yun tugged on my sleeve again, indicating that I should sit down and talk. As I sat down, he whispered into my ear, "Don't be so quick with your tongue."
I nodded and looked at the family of three sitting across from us. It was probably due to Sheng Yun's existence, or perhaps it was due to them being in the middle of a discussion. They didn't make threatening gestures tonight, so each of them was relatively quiet.
Xu Tianyi's phone kept ringing. He was chatting non-stop with his phone, and from time to time, he would make a small video to send it to someone.
Originally, this meal was quite peaceful. Unexpectedly, Huang Xiaoxiang snatched over Xu Tianyi's phone and smashed it into pieces: "What did I tell you? Don't casually chat with women who have a bad background! Good for you! Do you take your mother's words as nothing? "
Xu Tianyi was a little afraid of Huang Xiaoxiang. He silently looked at her mother, then suddenly shouted loudly, rushed over to pick up the phone, and shouted to Huang Xiaoxiang: "You're similarly pregnant, look at the attitude of the other person with Sheng Family, then look at the attitude of our family! "Mom, Ren Yingying is my child, I must give birth to her!"
