Chapter 421 He said he would never leave again
The man stepped into the elevator with his cell phone in hand, his suit jacket on his arms. When the elevator door closed, Huo Chenlai's voice came from the cell phone.
"Brother, the traffic jam reached Changbai Mountain? It took more than an hour to walk here."
The man typed a few words on the screen with his long fingers, [I’ll be here in half an hour, I told you to eat first. 】
When he arrived at the dinner party, everyone in the room looked over.
In addition to the familiar faces of Jiang Song, Huo Chen, Qinsu and Lian Ruoyan, there were also three or four unfamiliar faces.
The mixed-race man with black hair and blue eyes stood up. He was slender and tall, with a handsome face, and bore a two-thirds resemblance to Lian Chengyu.
He took the initiative to stretch out his hand and open the seat for Lian Chengyu, and said with a respectful tone in fluent Chinese, "Uncle, you are here."
Lian Chengyu casually put his coat on the back of the chair, "Well, I told you not to wait for me."
"Auntie insisted on waiting for you, otherwise it would be too unruly, and we had something to eat on the plane."
After Lian Chengyu sat down, the young man followed suit.
After Lian Chengyu sat down, he looked at the woman diagonally in front of him, "Ethan is not an underage child. You don't need to escort him the whole time. Don't let your husband's family find fault with you."
"His identity is different, so I will be more secure if I follow him. As for my family, you don't have to worry about it." Lian Ruoyan continued to ask with a smile on his face, "Where did he go just now? Don't use the traffic jam to deal with us."
Lian Chengyu ignored the question, "Let's serve the food. You don't need to wait for me to eat from now on. There aren't that many rules."
During the meal, everyone chatted while eating. Only Lian Chengyu moved his chopsticks twice and then put them down. He became interested in the desserts that never moved.
He took a silver spoon and dug into the chocolate mousse.
Huo Chen picked up a piece of peanut and chewed it slowly, "The longer you live, the younger you will be. Eat sweets and cakes."
The man looked at him without changing his expression, "It's not like you. The older you are, the more you talk."
Huo Chen, "...are you alive today? Are you in a good mood after eating alone outside?"
Huo Chen has been staying in London for the past few years, and it was he who accompanied Lian Chengyu in the turmoil. He was the only one here who dared to joke with Lian Chengyu so casually.
The person being ridiculed fiddled with the teacup with his fingers, and the sweetness in his mouth was diluted by the aroma of tea. "It is true that I ate alone, but not outside, at home."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present had rich expressions on their faces.
There is inquiry, gossip, playfulness, and doubts.
Jiang Song paused while chewing beef and saw his husband's face diagonally opposite.
In fact, there wasn't much change, but Jiang Song just felt that it was different.
To put it more mysteriously, he seemed to be able to see Lian Chengyu's emotions.
The kind of golden light that floats around the body after being covered in dust for a long time.
Happy.
Jiang Song immediately determined that eating alone must have been at the house next door!
He clenched his chopsticks tightly, and a smile appeared on his lips.
"With whom?" Lian Ruoyan asked nervously, "Chengyu, your diet cannot be so casual."
Huo Chen grabbed the words and said, "We'd better leave it alone. They just stopped talking and said that I have too many old words."
Lian Ruoyan chuckled, "Forget it, we are all in our 30s. If I can't deal with you guys, I'd rather be Ethan. It's the easiest thing to worry about."
The man who was praised was struggling with chopsticks. He was not very good at using them. Hearing this, he looked at Lian Ruoyan and said, "Auntie, I don't want you to worry about it. Can you ask the waiter to bring a fork?"
"You have to learn from your sister about this, she is very good at using chopsticks." Lian Ruoyan said so on the holder, but still asked the waiter to put the knife and fork.
The room burst into laughter at this little episode.
After the meal, everyone dispersed. Jiang Songfu'er said something next to Lian Chengyu and left quickly.
Lian Ruoyan looked at Ethan, "Go to the company with your uncle in the afternoon and get familiar with the work here."
Lian Chengyu stood up, picked up his coat and put it on his arms, "Dorn is already waiting over there. I won't go over if I have something else to do."
"I have prepared a gift for you at Mrs. Lu's birthday party tonight." Lian Ruoyan looked at him.
Lian Chengyu paused, "No, I'll go back to Mo's house in the evening and go there with my mother. You can do your business."
After saying that, he walked away without looking back.
Ethan looked at Lian Ruoyan, "I know Mr. Dorn very well, it doesn't matter if my uncle is not around."
Lian Ruoyan patted his shoulder, with a light and gentle smile on his face.
As soon as Lian Chengyu got in the car, a call came in from the Mo family.
Mo Shaoyuan's tone was a little sour, and she snorted, "I haven't come back for five years, and when I come back, I live outside. I'm really related to you."
The man held the steering wheel with a smile in his eyes, "I thought I would go back to spend a few days with you after I finish my business."
"Stop confusing me with excuses. If you were serious, you wouldn't let me, a 50-year-old old lady, fly for more than ten hours to see you in the past few years."
He didn't know what he thought of, his eyes paused, and he replied vaguely, "Not anymore."
"Why can't you?" Mo Shaoyuan was stunned. When she wanted to ask further, the other party had already stopped her.
"I will pick you up at six o'clock in the evening. I know that you are going to attend Mrs. Lu's birthday party. I will be the driver tonight."
Mo Shaoyuan smiled uncontrollably and immediately went to the cloakroom to pick out clothes, "Why not now?"
"Going to meet someone."
Ten minutes after hanging up the phone, Maybach arrived at a coffee shop parking lot.
There was only one black Hongqi car in the parking lot, and a 'Closed Today' sign was hung on the door of the cafe.
He held an exquisite gift box in his hand and pushed the door open.
The woman sitting by the window with her back to him turned around, saw him, and stood up to greet him.
The first words out of her mouth were, "I wonder why Mr. Lian wants to see me alone?"
Lian Chengyu walked to the opposite seat, sat down calmly, and placed the gift box on the table.
There was a peaceful and wanton aura surrounding him, as if everything was under his control.
Especially when he spoke, his low voice was calm and nonchalant, "Let's talk about a business deal."
