Overwhelmed

Chapter 43

"Lu Mingyuan?" Before Song Meiyu's back disappeared, I heard Tang Yuan call me in a complicated way.

I raised my eyelids and glanced at him, and Tang Yuan showed a bitter smile, with obvious hurt in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "No wonder they keep calling you Mingyuan... I never knew that you still have Such a name."

"So what if we know?" I looked at Tang Yuan calmly, and said casually.

From the bottom of my heart, I feel a little funny about Tang Yuan.

What qualifications does he have to show this hurt in front of me again and again?

Tang Yuan always seemed unable to adapt to my indifferent attitude towards him. Seeing my understatement, there was a dark tide in his eyes for a moment, and finally he almost gritted his teeth and asked me, "So, you used to say that you like me and do it for me. Those things are really just a game that the young master is bored for a while?!"

Hearing what he said, an inexplicable and indescribable anger suddenly surged up in my heart for some reason.

I have never actually felt that if I like someone, that person will respond to me with equal affection. Emotions are the most impermanent thing. Even though I was born in the Lu family, I was born with almost everything, and I never felt like this Things can be forced.

So regarding Tang Yuan's refusal of my courtship, I didn't think there was anything wrong with him.

What I hate has always been that he deliberately used the fact that I like him to design me, and accompanied Song Meiyu as an excuse to slander me time and time again.

If I hadn't lost my memory back then, how would I, who only had love for Tang Yuan, be hurt by these two people?

I have been reluctant to think about these, because there are no ifs in the world.

But now, this person who had rejected me a long time ago is questioning me with such a face that I have deceived his feelings, and it is still at his wedding with a woman who is pregnant with his child!

"What qualifications do you have to question me? For me, liking is liking, it has nothing to do with identity, and I never bother to use tricks to deceive and play with other people's feelings!"

Thinking of the ring that I have been pressing deeply at the bottom of the box, and the astonishing number of portraits, and even my stomach that has not healed so far, I feel extremely angry at this person's suspicion.

Looking at Tang Yuan with an angry smile, thinking of Tang Yuan's various behaviors every time I saw him after amnesia, I couldn't help but sneer, "I feel really sad for you, do you even have a person who really likes you?" I can't even see clearly. Do you think that if I liked you before, I will always be devoted to you in this life? Tang Yuan, you think too highly of yourself!"

Very well, after making the bride jump with anger, in a short time, I made the groom so angry again.

It is estimated that Tang Yuan has been used to going smoothly in the past few years, and he is rarely slapped in the face, so it is no wonder that he can't hold back, looking at me like a beast that wants to eat people.

I suddenly smiled, and said softly to him, "Ah... I'm so sorry, I almost forgot that today is your big day, but, to ask such a question to the guests at the wedding, you and Miss Song are indeed A match made in heaven."

Song Meiyu coveted Big Brother Bai in front of Tang Yuan, and Tang Yuan asked me this kind of question behind Song Meiyu's back. These two people are really a perfect match.

Wan Qi, who has always been an invisible person behind me, couldn't help laughing out loud when I said this. Tang Yuan's face flushed red, and his fists were clenched tightly. I guess if it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he would definitely Pounce over like the last time I was on the set.

In fact, I still have some understanding of Tang Yuan's abnormality today.

As I said, Tang Yuan is actually a very calm man. He has been able to get to where he is today as a poor and white orphan, which is enough to show his deep scheming.

He has been in the showbiz for these years, during which he naturally met many ladies and ladies who courted him, and there were even wealthy politicians.

He is smart enough to know very well that those people are not sincere to him, they just want to have sex with him, so before meeting Song Meiyu, he insisted on maintaining the miracle of almost zero scandal.

After meeting Song Meiyu, he quickly tied Song Meiyu to himself with a thunderous force, and even made Song Meiyu successfully conceive, and then used the power behind him to catch up with Song Qidong, so that Song Qidong agreed to his marriage with Song Meiyu.

Among them, if any step goes wrong, Tang Yuan's calculations will fall short.

This is a man who can use any means to climb up the ladder, but now, he suddenly knows that the assistant Xiao Longtao, who has been stalking him for two years, was also born in a wealthy family, and he is uncharacteristically dismissive of him Gu, he would naturally feel unwilling.

It's just these, what does it have to do with me.

I looked at Tang Yuan with a smile and took a few deep breaths before suppressing the ferocious winks. I looked at him leisurely and waited for his next words.

Song Meiyu has always been very wary of me and Wei Xiaoyu, two people who used to have an affair with Tang Yuan, but now she is taking the initiative to let me get in touch with Tang Yuan for the first time. I don't think she wants us to reminisce about the old days.

Sure enough, soon, Tang Yuan returned to his usual handsome smile, with a bit of guilt in his eyes, and whispered to me, "Xiaoyuan... sorry, I was too excited just now."

I lowered the corners of my eyes, feeling impatient, and looked at him coldly, "This is the last time I warn you, please call me Mr. Lu in the future."

Wan Qi was also behind me and said angrily, "My young master doesn't know you very well, why are you always calling me so affectionate? Do you want others to think that my young master has a good relationship with you?"

Tang Yuan's smile froze, and just as he was about to say something, Wan Qi snorted coldly with extreme disdain, "What!"

Smiling, he glanced at Wan Qi who rolled his eyes at Tang Yuan, the child flattened his mouth and turned his head away from me.

I just turned my head to look at Tang Yuan, and said straight to the point, "What's the matter with you?"

Many people around have noticed us. Although this is a corner with few people, but Tang Yuan is today's groom after all, so naturally many people pay attention to him.

And I don't think I have anything to say to him.

"...Mr. Lu," it seemed that it took a lot of effort to say these three words. Tang Yuan's face had completely receded from the previous redness, and it could even be said to be a little cold. If it wasn't for the fact that he had something to say next Said, he has been far away from me for a long time, "I'm just a little curious, the gentleman behind you seems to be very familiar with the guests who came today."

"Huh?" I raised my eyebrows slightly, and looked at Wan Qi suspiciously, but my heart was somewhat clear.

Wan Qi blinked at me innocently, completely treating Tang Yuan as air, "Master, I just talked to a few people, and they came over to say hello on their own initiative, so I can't ignore them." , I don’t know how some people can tell that I’m ‘very familiar’ with them!”

When it came to the end, Wan Qi was not in a good mood again.

Tang Yuan's complexion changed again and again in Wan Qi's words.

I smiled and shrugged at him, "That's probably what happened."

When Tang Yuan left, he seemed to be in a daze, and even faintly revealed a bit of annoyance and fear, not knowing what he was thinking of.

I squinted at Wan Qi, and that guy came up to me with a hey smile, winked and said to me, "Master, you don't know, those old foxes have been trying to introduce the children in the family to you just now, but fortunately I blocked them." gone back."

I touched my chin with a smile, then looked at the people behind him approaching from several directions, and said calmly, "You mean these people, right?"

Wan Qi's expression changed, and he quickly turned his head to take a look, then turned his head with a sad face, and said pitifully, "Master... I was wrong QAQ..."

I patted his head, and said with a pleasant face: "Well, we'll talk about the specific punishment when we get home. First, tell me briefly which side these people are from."

There are many industries under my command, and I have always had someone to take care of them. Even if there are very few things that can't be solved, I will push Wan Qi to solve them.

Even though Wan Qi is only one year older than me, he is always joking and laughing on weekdays, but there are so many elites under his management and control, he is my terminal agent on the surface, and few people know who he is. who.

All the people present today are dragons and phoenixes, and all kinds of elites from the political, business and other fields gathered here. It is not surprising that one or two people have met Wan Qi.

That's why I didn't pay much attention when Wan Qi said that he was going to socialize.

However, thinking about the behavior of the Patriarch of the Huo family, Tang Yuan, Song Meiyu, and that old man who almost "sneaked" Wei Xiaoyu just now...

No wonder I always feel that something is not quite right, even if I am "Lu Mingzhao's cousin" and have some ambiguity with Big Brother Bai, it won't make those people care so much about me, it turned out to be the case.

Wan Qi glanced at the people approaching from the corner of her eyes, and then quickly explained to me.

One is a politician supported by the Lu family in the mainland, and he is the right-hand man of another election candidate who is at odds with the Song family. Twice, so I came up to say hello when I met him today.

Nodding in understanding, I looked at the beautiful woman who was followed by a weak Liu Yingfeng, and the middle-aged man who came to say hello with some caution in his eyes, I wanted to push them directly to Wan Qi to leave, but my peripheral vision was not far away After thinking about that graceful standing figure, I still slightly raised the corners of my lips, and simply exchanged greetings with the visitor.

These people were quite interesting, although they seemed to be very curious about me, but it didn't take long after all. Seeing that I was not very interested in them and the children behind them, they left soon.

Glancing at Wan Qi, who looked at me with a look of about to cry as soon as those people left, I said to him with a half-smile, "I didn't expect you to be quite serious in front of people."

He obviously has a baby face, but he is able to do a good job when chatting with those old foxes, and he even handles them just right. Wan Qi is also a strange flower.

Wan Qi chuckled twice, not seeing the shrewdness of just a moment ago.

I couldn't help squinting my eyes, and asked him a little puzzled, "It's understandable for those few people just now to introduce girls to me, but one of them has been promoting his son to me..." What's going on? ?

Wan Qi let out a "puchi" laugh, "It's exactly what you think, young master."

I turned my head embarrassingly, subconsciously looking for the "enlightened" father, but accidentally saw Brother Bai not far away, looking at me with a gentle smile on his face.

What... what's going on?

=口=Who messed with him? ! !

Seeing the extremely gentle smile on his face, I felt the hairs all over my body stand on end.

Strolling to Big Brother Bai's side with trepidation, although when I stepped into the venue again, I found that the eyes gathered on me were much more complex than before, and it was also a lot more complicated, but I really didn't care much about it.

All I care about now is what happened to this person in front of me?

"Brother Bai?" He called out cautiously.

"Huh?" The man who still smiled softly raised his eyebrows slightly.

I couldn't help frowning, if it wasn't for the wrong occasion, I really wanted to reach out and cover his eyes.

As much as I'd love to be treated with real tenderness from this man, it's not like this, and while it's not the first time he's shown this look, it still makes me feel a little uncomfortable.

I licked my lips, and I looked at him nervously, "Brother Bai, are you... in a bad mood?"

Brother Bai still smiled like a spring breeze, "No, why do you think so?"

I just remembered that before I met that series of people, I was obviously helping Brother Bai choose food, but since I met Zheng Jingren, this project has been interrupted again and again.

"Brother Bai, are you... are you hungry?" It is said that people feel bad when they are hungry, but Brother Bai doesn't seem to be such an emotional person.

Unexpectedly, Big Brother Bai actually thought about it seriously, then nodded slightly, "I'm a little hungry."

I just laughed, "I was looking for food for you just now, but unfortunately I was interrupted all the time, then I'll go and see what's there."

"No need," before he left, he was interrupted by Big Brother Bai. He looked at me for a while, and then said, "It's past noon now, Mingyuan, you probably haven't eaten yet, right?"

"...Hmm." Thinking of the spicy seafood stuffed by Zheng Jingren just now, I nodded and shook my head again, "I just ate a piece of pastry." I almost forgot the durian cake that Xiao Xiao stuffed me.

Brother Bai frowned slightly, and then took two goblets filled with wine from the waiter behind him, "The food here is already cold, drink something first, and we'll go eat after we leave later. "

I took the goblet hesitantly and looked at him worriedly, "You...can't drink wine?"

Although there have long been rumors that there will be no wine at the banquet where Big Brother Bai will be present, but today is a wedding banquet after all, and most of the people I saw were drinking champagne.

Brother Bai smiled and shook his wine glass, then motioned for me to raise it.

Although I was a little worried about him, I still raised my wrist knowingly, and then I saw Big Brother Bai holding the wine glass, and lightly touched the wine glass in my hand.

The slight "hum" sound is inaudible, and the liquid in the cup shakes gently along the wall of the cup, reflecting a bright halo.

I looked at Big Brother Bai in surprise, because he just deliberately lowered the mouth of the cup half an inch lower than mine.

Lowering the rim of the cup to show humility is the minimum etiquette when drinking.

Everyone present is unknown, and our current position is almost the center of the venue.

I even noticed that those who were secretly watching us paused for breath at this moment.

As if pleased by my surprise, Brother Bai relaxed his brows and eyes, showing the kind of soft smile I usually see, and said to me with a smile, "Ming Yuan, at least take a sip after clinking glasses." Isn't it true that you really don't give me face? "

Then, under everyone's stunned gaze, the man who was said to never drink alcohol calmly took a sip of the liquid in his glass.

Only then did I come back to my senses, and took a deep look at Big Brother Bai who was full of smiles in his eyes. Although I was a little shocked by his actions, at the same time, I had some understanding of what was in the cup.

I raised my glass and took a sip of the liquid in the glass. The familiar tea aroma made me chuckle.

Who would have known, it was obviously the same color as the champagne that everyone was drinking, but in fact, it contained calming tea, a specialty of the Bai family.

Of course I understand, it's just other people...

Looking at Big Brother Bai with a sly expression, he heard him say in a low voice, "You dare to drink when you have a bad stomach, Mingyuan, you really are not an obedient little guy."

I looked at him with a smile, "I don't know yet, who would dare to give me a drink under the nose of the Patriarch of the Bai family."

Brother Bai was startled for a moment, and then the corners of his eyes were smeared with smiles, and he nodded slightly, "Indeed, with me watching, naturally no one would dare."

And I already know why he did it.

Soon, Big Brother Bai and Xiao Xiao will leave. After all, we already know that our respective goals have been basically achieved today.

It is basic, because it is still the last step.

I walked in the front with a smile, and one step behind, Wan Qi, Xiao Xiao and Big Brother Bai all followed closely with natural expressions.

If no one has noticed the brief clinking of glasses before, then now, Big Brother Bai and Xiao Xiao, who are willing to walk behind me, are using the most straightforward way to announce to everyone that my identity is not as simple as "Lu Mingzhao's cousin" .

They noticed the Lu family's principle of doing things, low-key and unassuming. Although I didn't think I should tell those irrelevant people deliberately, but they still used this method to prove that I am not anyone's vassal.

This attentiveness...

Thinking of the rare tough look when Big Brother Bai asked me to attend the wedding banquet, I couldn't help lowering my eyes, and suddenly felt a little hot in my eye sockets.

It is really lucky to fall in love with such a person.
