Chapter 266 (1/2)
”Dad.” Xiao Yicheng walked to the stage doubtfully. Gu Yining suddenly turned his head, tears swirling in his eyes, and he was excited to cry. ”You're finally here. You're still willing to marry me.” Gu Yizhen murmured.
The colorful spotlight hit Xiao Yicheng. He instinctively blocked it with his hand. His eyes were dazzled by the sudden strong light. He half narrowed his eyes and saw that Gu Yining's face was vaguely hung with tears, which was clearly the trace of just crying.
”Everybody, this is my youngest son, Xiao Yicheng.” Xiao Hai's face showed shocked joy and took Xiao Yicheng to the front of the stage. Introduced to all the guests, the words were full of pride.
”All of you here are dignitaries in this city. If you can take the time to come here today, it is to give me Xiao's face. The old man wrote it down. Xiao is not talented, and I hope you will pay more attention in the future. If there is a place with poor reception, I hope you will bear more.”
”Hello, distinguished guests! Gathering is fate. Welcome to attend the engagement ceremony between Mr. Xiao Yicheng and Miss Gu Yining in your busy schedule!” the master of ceremonies with red bows and pigtails came out of nowhere and smiled at Xiao Hai and Gu Shaohua.
”Oh, look, that's the second young master of the Xiao family. I heard that he just came back from studying abroad a few years ago. Now he has made a lot of achievements in the Xiao family!”
”Really? It's really a talent. Young people have such strong ability. It's really frightening for later generations! Miss Gu is beautiful and moving. It's really a natural couple!”
”Tut tut Tut, it's really a man and a woman. The ancient family and the Xiao family are married. I'm afraid they have become the giants of the city's business. It seems that we should be more careful in the future.” ”yes, yes.”
The guests under the stage talked for a moment. Mr. Xiao stroked his beard, and the wrinkles in the corners of his eyes were full of pride.
The more Xiao Yizheng listened, the more he felt wrong. Where is this business? It was clearly an engagement banquet with Gu Yining. Xiao Yicheng looked at Xiao Hai incredulously, his eyes full of hostility. ”What the hell are you doing? What engagement?”
”Ah Cheng, don't be ridiculous! Otherwise what do you think it is? This is your engagement banquet with Ning Ning! What can I do? Go back and talk about it.” Xiao Hai lowered his voice. In the corner where no one saw, Xiao Hai quietly beat Xiao Yicheng's leg with a crutch.
”You lied to me!” Xiao Yicheng flushed his eyes and almost roared. Not only anger, but also disappointment, but also a sense of powerlessness that knows the fate but is unable to reverse it.
Since Xiao Yicheng appeared, Gu Yining's eyes have always stayed on him. Although he can't hear what he and master Xiao are talking about, it is obvious that he is very unhappy. Seeing his reaction, Gu Yining's heart seemed to tear open, as if he had eaten a lot of immature fruits, sour and astringent.
Under the leadership of Luo Hongyu and Gu Shaohua, Gu Yining came to Xiao Yicheng. Xiao Yicheng looked straight ahead and couldn't laugh at all.
”My son is quiet and doesn't like to talk much. The two children have been together for several years. The old man's heart is very anxious! Hahaha...” Xiao Hai laughed. He was very energetic, smiled and said positively:
”From now on, the Xiao family and the Gu family are a family. The Xiao family and the Gu family are also a big family. You have me and I have you. We work together and make progress together! In the future, I hope all my colleagues can lend a helping hand and help more. If you don't say much, you can eat and drink well!”
Gu Shaohua and Xiao Hai made official speeches. Except for the ”Dad”, Xiao Yicheng didn't say a word in the whole process. He deliberately distanced himself from Gu Yining. Although Gu Yining threw lovable eyes at him many times, Xiao Yicheng didn't see it.
Xiao Yicheng finally realized that everything was a fraud. Xiao'an has never been to Xiao's house at all, nor has he said he wanted to find himself. No wonder the girl at the front desk took him directly to this room. It turned out that it had been arranged for a long time. He panicked one after another just to let him come here and get engaged to Gu Yining. He was too simple. He should have thought that all this was false. He could have walked away. I really regret that he didn't listen to ah Qing's words and fell into a situation where it was difficult to ride a tiger.
Xiao Yicheng's angry body couldn't stop shaking and his head was dizzy. The guests who forced to support under the stage dispersed and rushed out of the backstage with an arrow.
He left the room as if he had escaped.
”Ah Cheng!” Gu Yining shouted behind and ran after him with a long skirt. Xiao Yizheng went up to stop him. He couldn't stand Xiao Yicheng's youth and strength. He was easily pushed by Xiao Yicheng.
”Ah Cheng! Do you know where it is now!” Xiao Yizheng stepped back and hit the table at the back door of the hotel. He held the door frame with one hand and grinned in pain.
”You lied to me! Where did you get Xiao an?” Xiao Yicheng rushed up and grabbed Xiao Yizheng's collar. He wanted to eat him. Thanks to the two guys who pulled Xiao Yicheng away in time.
”There's no Ye Xiaoan at all! Don't be silly, my silly brother. She'll never come back. All you have to do now is get out of here and finish your engagement with Gu Yining. When you're here, do you think you have any other choice? I don't care if you can be with Gu Yining in the future, but now, you must marry her! Don't waste time!”
”You're really good! Join hands to deceive me, don't you just let me marry Gu Yining? You've taken great pains. Well, now that your goal has been achieved, can I go?” Xiao Yicheng earned the man's hand and straightened his collar.
