Chapter 25 Nacht "Husband."

The sister-in-law is worthy of being the sister-in-law.

Xie Ting sighed, she had made the right decision to defect. With her sister-in-law, she no longer had to be afraid of her brother!

But then again, how did the sister-in-law make the brother listen to her so much? The manual for training a husband can be published as a book in its own right.

"..."

Quezhan was speechless. What she wanted was not soda, but wine!

I gave you three or four eye hints but you didn’t notice, right?

The clear white coconut water was poured into the glass, the mellow liquid adhered to the wall and formed an arc, filling the glass one-third full. The water was pushed in front of her, but she glared at Xie Xianshen coldly, "This is not what I want."

She spoke in a low voice, with a slight accusation, but not to the point of being angry.

There was silence in the box.

For some reason, it was like it was stuck on pause.

As luck would have it, the last syllable of her voice fell at the point where the sound disappeared. Almost everyone present heard it, and their eyes shifted towards her tacitly, with questions, pauses, and some showing surprise as if they understood something.

A century of social death scene.

But her mind was blank and she didn't know how to react. She wanted to move but couldn't. Her body was stiff as if the spring had been cut off.

“…That’s it.” Quezhan had no other choice but to give himself an excuse, “I was mistaken.”

“Thank you…”

As expected, his mind went blank and he spoke without thinking and made random comments.

In front of all the elders, she said such an intimate name: "Husband..."

She really wanted to run away quickly. Why... why did she say husband!

Aaaaaaaaahhh! husband!

The one who was most obviously supporting the couple was Xie Ting. She was surprised and delighted. She clenched her fists in front of her lips and chuckled silently. Her eldest brother and sister-in-law were such a good pair! Too sweet!

The elders understood and smiled happily. After hearing Quezhan's accusation, they thought that she had lost her temper and that the young couple had a bad relationship. It turned out that their thinking was unnecessary.

Quezhan took the coconut tea that Xie Xianshen poured for her and sipped it, while she was frantically reviewing and condemning the past in her heart.

The gaze at the side seemed to be staring at her. She turned her body and her eyes suddenly met the man's.

The man who was called husband had the same calm expression as before, his dark eyes locked onto her like a prey. She swallowed, her pupils flickering as if trying to look away, but he just kept looking at her, motionless, slightly tilting his head, waiting for her gaze to stabilize, then they looked at each other again, and she understood what his eyes conveyed.

——What does the word "husband" mean?

What's the meaning? Work and injury!

"What are you looking at?"

Quezhan responded with a threatening look, gritted his teeth, and scolded in a low voice, the volume of which was only audible to the two of them.

But this was not enough. She moved her ankle, and without lowering her head or loosening her grip, she kicked him sideways under the table.

This time it was a kick, not a point, and the pain was very immediate.

Xie Xianshen didn't say anything and his expression didn't change, but he was thinking: This person is abnormal, he is sick.

The box felt a bit stuffy, so he said hello and went outside to ease the embarrassment of his earlier mistake.

She actually wanted to smoke a cigarette, but considering that it was a family dinner and the smell of smoke would give the elders a bad impression, she gave up and stood by the side of the corridor to get some fresh air to calm herself.

"Sister-in-law is here."

Quezhan looked back and saw a figure passing by the side of Yunwuzhenjing standing on the fork road behind her. The dark face was fully revealed. It was Xie Huaiming who was walking slowly towards her.

The man was wearing a well-tailored brown suit. He raised one hand to adjust the frame of his glasses and smiled politely: "What's wrong, sister-in-law? Are you worried about something? Or was it that the family dinner was not well hosted and the dishes were not to your liking?"

It didn't seem like he was deliberately looking for her to meet him.

Quezhan didn't know what Xie Huaiming's intention was in talking to her. If he was testing the relationship between her and Xie Xianshen...

"The dishes are very good."

The other party's intention was unclear, and her words were half true and half false: "It's a little hot in the room. My friend just happened to want to talk to me about something, so I came out to answer the message."

Xie Huaiming asked with interest: "Friend? What friend? A man or a woman?"

Even if Xie Huaiming is a member of the Xie family, the questions he asks should be moderate. Inappropriate questions will only disturb his mood.

Quezhan didn't want to have a falling out, so

she made up an excuse, one of the few good-tempered ones: "Ordinary friends." As soon as she said this, Xie Huaiming sneered at the answer, "In this day and age, there are so many people who use the excuse of being ordinary friends. Who knows whether what they say is true or not."

Xie Huaiming believed that ordinary friends should not reach the point where she needed to leave the family dinner to reply to messages alone. He was sure that Quezhan was hiding something, and continued, "My sister-in-law's social circle is even wider than I thought. Ordinary friends in the general sense must keep a proper distance."

He was testing her.

Could it be that Xie Huaiming was also referring to the concert in Shanghai?

Is he standing on the same side as Xie Ling and continuing to accuse her?

"Don't be nervous, sister-in-law. I'm here to send my blessings." Maybe the atmosphere of the conversation was too serious, Xie Huaiming cleverly led the topic up and naturally turned the conversation back to other aspects: "When you heard the news of my brother's marriage, Rui Yi and I should have expressed our feelings some time ago, but we were too busy with work and couldn't spare the time. We are sorry for the neglect. Please don't take it to heart, sister-in-law."

"As the eldest son, I'm speaking for Rui Yi. We brothers and sisters sincerely wish that you and your wife will be united and live in harmony."

Que Dian raised his eyebrows.

I declined, but it’s not necessary.

"Then I won't bother you anymore." The man said he was leaving, but he stopped but didn't leave. He suddenly turned around and said, "What brand of perfume does sister-in-law use? The smell is very special. Coincidentally, my sister likes this kind of floral and woody perfume very much. I want to ask what the name of this perfume is."

She used too many brands of perfume, and the long names were easy to confuse, so she never remembered the names. "I just picked it up..."

But she was searching her memory for the smell of the perfume, her words stumbling, and her thoughts stopped at that moment because Xie Huaiming seemed to intentionally lean towards her.

She was stunned, and wanted to retreat as the distance between them became closer and closer. The next moment, she looked down and noticed where the man's coat and shirt overlapped. On his left chest, a long light blonde hair was visible, clinging to his shirt. The large white background made the blonde hair even more eye-catching.

In its current state, this hair is not something to be concerned about.

On the other hand, Xie Huaiming knew that Que Zhan was pulling back to create distance between him and him, but he turned a blind eye and continued to lean forward.

This made Quezhan very disgusted.

"Are you done?"

At the same time, Xie Huaiming's shoulder was suddenly held down by a certain force with one hand, and his leaning movement was stopped, so he turned around.

Quezhan also raised his eyes to look for someone.

Xie Xianshen stood behind Xie Huaiming. His tall stature blocked the large area of ​​overhead light from the tall and wide board. He lowered his eyebrows and looked at him arrogantly. He exerted a little force with his arms to pull back a few inches. Xie Huaiming stepped back with his shoulders tilted and staggered with unsteady steps.

The man walked towards her, and the shadow over his shoulders expanded until it completely enveloped her.

Quezhan called his name unconsciously: "Xie Xianshen...?"

"Just a greeting, no harm meant." Xie Huaiming's explanation seemed a bit redundant, just a random excuse. Although the following words were praise, the more one listened, the more mocking the implication became: "It seems that brother and sister-in-law have a very good relationship. He protects sister-in-law like a treasure, afraid that others would get close to her."

"..." But the lamp was automatically blocked.

Xie Huaiming came with bad intentions, but she was not blind or deaf. Her intuition told her that this man was cunning and treacherous, and he was not easy to deal with.

After everyone left, Que Zhan asked Xie Xianshen: "Why did you come out? Could it be..."

Could it be that her acting was too bad and the elders saw some flaws and asked him to take her back.

She thinks her acting is very good and there is nothing wrong with it.

"Ms. Xu saw that you hadn't been home for such a long time and thought you were angry. I came out to take a look," he replied.

What Xie Xianshen said were not Ms. Xu’s original words. The original words were: Ah Shen, go and see why Zhanzhan hasn’t come back yet. Did you do something to make her angry? Coax her.

coax?

He doesn't know how to coax people, but he can play with cats, which is better than coaxing people.

Quezhan tidied her long hair which was a little messy when she stepped back, raised her eyes and looked in the direction where Xie Huaiming left, and said nonchalantly: "Your cousin has some art in speaking, which makes people unpredictable."

She thought of what Xie Ling said to her in the box. After comparing it with others, it was true, "I have discovered that you members of the Xie family all speak in such a sarcastic way. You put on a smiling face and try to please you on the surface, but you are actually scheming and scheming in your heart. You have to talk a lot in a few words."

"Mrs. Xie, you are also a member of the Xie family."

"..."

"Mrs. Xie is not only accomplished in speaking and conversation, but also in beating people."

"..." Quezhan folded her arms and retorted sarcastically, "I am reminding Mr. Xie that when you act, you have to act well. I have done my part and everything I should do. Don't forget to fulfill the promise Mr. Xie made. I will remember it." "

Wait for a reply."

For the black card with unlimited credit limit, she acted so dedicatedly, and she deserved it.

...

When I returned to the box again, I felt much more relieved. The meal was almost over.

She sighed secretly, it was really not easy to act in a play.

"Are you leaving now?" Xie Huaiming said suddenly for no reason.

Xie Ruiyi couldn't understand her brother. The relationship between the two siblings was like fire and water, and they grew up fighting each other.

She stood up from her chair and pretended to pat the wrinkles on her clothes that were left by her sitting posture. The wrinkles were very severe. She said impatiently, "Why are you staying here if you don't want to leave? Do you want me to listen to you chant yang'er?"

Chan yang'er is a Beijing dialect, which means to make small talk.

"Rui Yi, don't be so anxious." Xie Huaiming also stood up and paced around. "It's just right, taking advantage of this family dinner, the elders are all here, I really have great news to tell you all. If I don't say it now, I may not be able to say it in the future." She paused

, she couldn't figure out Xie Huaiming anymore, he was so mysterious when he told me things.

There is so much preparation, what is the big deal?

The man took out his cell phone and said while searching for news: "I am not supposed to say this. After all, it will make people hate me and it is not a glorious name in the Beijing circle. But just now, I happened to see it. As a member of the Xie family, I can't just act dumb."

"For the marriage of my brother and sister-in-law, both the elders and peers sincerely hope that you can get married. But sister-in-law, this is what you did wrong, I saw this man... It seems to be the lead singer of the concert held in Shanghai yesterday?"

Another concert.

Quezhan suddenly felt a bad premonition in his heart.

"My sister-in-law's identity is different from others. She is the only daughter of the prominent Que family."

Xie Huaiming paused intentionally, and used two fingers to enlarge the screen of his mobile phone to face Que Zhan and all the elders, so that the elders could see clearly how much shame the wife of the eldest son of the Xie family had brought to the Xie family. "My brother is busy with work and doesn't pay attention to new and interesting entertainment things in the outside world. What about you? You are married and do such things with other men in public--"

He glanced at Que Zhan, paused for a second, then glanced at Xie Xianshen, and said meaningfully: "Where can my brother put his face?"

Que Zhan was stunned when he saw the photo clearly.

In the photo, she and Meng Ye were facing each other, not eating cookies, but kissing.

In just a few seconds, she reacted quickly.

In the second half of the family dinner, Quezhan had some understanding of how Xie Xianshen and Xie Huaiming got along with each other. In an opposing way, it was impossible for the former to stand on the same side as Xie Ling to accuse her of what she did, so the assumption was not valid.

The fact must be that Xie Huaiming had seen the photo before the family dinner, but he didn't make it public and deliberately set up a trap to catch her.

At the beginning of this family dinner, he intentionally asked about her relationship with Xie Xianshen. Because she had to act, she naturally went along with the instructions and put her feelings out in the open so that the elders would know what was going on. Afterwards, he came out of the box and talked to her alone. He sent her his blessing, which she thought was just a polite compliment. His real intention was to test whether she had any hidden thoughts and whether the ordinary friends he mentioned were Meng Ye.

When the family dinner was about to end, he finally showed this photo in front of all the elders.

She was tricked by him.
