Chapter 717 If I had known, I wouldn't have come
With eyes facing each other, Chen Yu's heart suddenly tightened, and the smile that was forced out of his face suddenly became stiff.
He tried to convey to Pei Yuqin with his eyes that this was just an ordinary greeting, so that she would never think too much.
Pei Yuqin seemed to be able to see through his panic, blinked at him playfully, then lowered her head and continued to talk softly with Li Qing'er.
It seemed as if I didn't care about Gu Xinyi's words at all.
But the slightly clenched fingers revealed a trace of her concern.
"Chen Yu, what's wrong with you?" Gu Xinyi's voice sounded again, with a little concern and a hint of temptation. "Look at you, you seem a little absent-minded, what? Do you need other people's consent to talk to me?"
Chen Yu rubbed his chin and said perfunctorily: "It's nothing. I haven't touched the ground these days, so I'm a little tired."
Just at this moment, a waiter came over at the right time and said respectfully to the few people: "Ms. Gu, Mr. Chen, Miss Pei, you can attend the seat now."
Chen Yu felt relieved and secretly thanked that the waiter came so timely.
However, when he followed everyone to the banquet, he was shocked to find that the Gu family had only three tables in the banquet, each in three banquet halls of different sizes.
Although there are endless people coming to celebrate the birthday, most of them just appear in a hurry and leave after sending blessings, and they are not even qualified to enjoy a meal.
According to age and identity, Chen Yu and Pei Yuqin were naturally arranged at the third table.
There are ten people in this table. Apart from the juniors of the Gu family, the only two of them are outsiders.
Of course, Li Qing'er is not an outsider, and Chen Yu already knew her relationship with the Gu family at this time.
After finding a guest seat, Gu Xinyi also walked over and sat next to Shen Yuyu, one left and one right with Pei Yuqin!
Her eyes never moved away from Chen Yu from beginning to end.
He even poured a glass of juice for Chen Yu himself, and his posture was very low, like a beautiful woman who cared for her lover.
Chen Yu picked up the juice and took it slowly. He was about to say thank you, but he didn't know that Gu Xinyi nipped her lips and spoke first, "Qiannan, I haven't seen you for a long time, you are becoming more and more handsome!
"I wonder if you missed me after parting in Dongjiang last time? Recently, I don't know why, when I played basketball together in the past, I always came to my mind. I even think of Grandpa Chen, who taught me a lot of metaphysical Feng Shui techniques, which benefited me a lot in my life!"
Today, Gu Xinyi was wearing a red evening dress that symbolized nobility and elegance. The hem of the skirt naturally hangs like flowing red satin, which sets up her skin and long legs as white as snow.
The makeup is also extremely exquisite, and every detail seems to be deliberately turned to Chen Yu to see.
The cheeks were blushing with red wine, just like a delicate rose, exuding a charming atmosphere and a bit irresistible temptation.
As soon as she said this, the young men of the Gu family all looked at her with great surprise.
Couple Gu Yundong, Gu Yunsheng widened his eyes, his eyes full of disbelief, and the chopsticks holding pastries in his hand almost fell on the table.
My cousin Gu Xinyan covered her mouth and muttered in a low voice: "What's wrong with Sister Xinyi? She is so cold to men today, but she is so active today?"
The same is true for other cousins and cousins, all of them stared at each other!
However, Gu Xinyi seemed to be not caring about the eyes of others at all, and did not even show any shyness.
Her beautiful eyes stared straight at Chen Yu, and the mist in her eyes was hazy, as if there were thousands of words to say but it was still a matter of rest.
As the youngest child of Gu Zhengtang and the only daughter, she has always been called "the eldest princess" in the Gu family. From childhood to adulthood, as long as it is what she wants, she has never been able to get it without asking for it!
Chen Yu, she is determined to win.
But Gu Xinyi's heart is also extremely complicated at this moment!
She never thought that she would be so obsessed with a man, especially Chen Yu, a boy who had known all the same ideas as playing basketball with her, discussing metaphysics, identifying antiques, and piano, chess, calligraphy and painting!
She always thought she could let go easily, but when she dreamed countless midnights, Chen Yu's figure always lingers in her heart like a ghost and cannot be gone.
She also knew that her actions today were a bit out of line and might even cause criticism from others, but at this moment, she was already blinded by the emotions in her heart and didn't care about these things at all.
Chen Yu complained secretly in his heart, and he was afraid of anything he was going to be.
From the last time he met Gu Xinyi in Dongjiang, he could see that Gu Xinyi seemed to have a good impression of him!
But in front of Sister Qin, if he misses her, it was simply putting him on the fire and roasting him!
They drank the juice in the glass and looked at Pei Yuqin slightly, but saw that she was holding Li Qing'er's hand. The two of them were talking in a low voice, as if they didn't hear Gu Xinyi's words at all.
At this time, Pei Yuqin was generous and natural, with a few strands of hair hanging down on her cheeks, adding a bit of laziness and a different style to her.
Li Qing'er seemed a little nervous and didn't know how to put her hands and feet.
She had already put Chen Yu on her suit that was covered with Pei Yuqin, trying to cover up the V-neck evening dress full of fair skin, and she looked very reserved.
Seeing that Chen Yu did not respond, Gu Xinyi sighed softly, with a hint of resentment in her tone, "Qiannan, where are I asking you? You used to call me Sister Xinyi."
Pei Yuqin suddenly raised her head and a smile appeared on her face. Her tone was gentle but she had a sharp edge, just like a steel needle wrapped in cotton: "Ms. Gu, everyone is hungry, why not serve the food, right?
"If you don't talk about serving food, it's hard for others to speak! Qi Nan didn't eat much at noon, so I'm afraid I'm hungry now!
"By the way, he didn't seem to have told me recently, what's wrong with you?" She said, gently holding Chen Yu's arm and declaring her sovereignty!
Upon hearing this, a hint of displeasure flashed in Gu Xinyi's eyes, but she cleverly concealed it.
After thinking about it, she chuckled, with a bit of meaning in her tone, "Ms. Pei is really considerate, no wonder Qi Nan chose you. However, I met Chen Yu much earlier than you. Some things, no one can predict the ending until the last moment, what do you think?"
Pei Yuqin still kept a faint smile, and she shook her head, "It is indeed unpredictable to love. However, fate is not God's will. It is whether they attract each other!
"Since Qi Nan chose me, I will naturally cherish it and will never let him hold hands!"
The conversation between the two was on the surface, and they were very polite. The words were all polite, but if you savor it carefully, there was a strong smell of gunpowder between the lines, and anyone could feel the tit-for-tat spirit.
The rest of the people on the dining table were all humans, keenly capturing this tense atmosphere.
In an instant, the originally noisy desktop became quiet in an instant.
