The two people who were arguing were instantly silenced.

Zhou Chenyuan narrowed his eyes and walked towards Zhou Zhichu, "Uncle Eleven."

Yan Shaozhuang stood beside Zhou Zhichu, and Zhou Chenyuan only glanced at him from the corner of his eye.

Yan Shaozhuang nodded slightly towards Zhou Chenyuan: "Ayuan."

Zhou Chenyuan sneered. People like Yan Shaozhuang were truly shameless. No matter how he was humiliated, he could act as if nothing had happened.

Zhou Zhichu waited for him to approach, with a gentle smile on his face, which matched his overly brilliant face, showing that he was extremely close to Zhou Chenyuan, and asked in the tone of an elder: "Why are you here alone?"

Zhou Chenyuan did not speak, but turned slightly and glanced behind him.

He just glanced at the girl not far away and reminded Zhou Chenyuan warmly: "You are still young, so don't be smitten by the beautiful girls outside."

Zhou Chenyuan's attitude was respectful, his tone was calm but mixed with respect, "Uncle Eleven reminded me, I remember it. Uncle Eleven is busy in advance, I will go see my mother."

"I haven't seen my third sister-in-law for a long time. Say hello to her for me."

Zhou Zhichu has a very special pair of phoenix eyes, and the right double eyelids make his already exquisite face more charming, which always makes people think that he is a sentimental and unlucky person.

Yan Shaozhuang looked at He Xiaoran who was not far away, nodded towards her, and took the initiative to lead the way: "Master Eleven, please come this way!"

Zhou Chenyuan watched them leave with a gloomy face. He was about to turn around when he was stopped by Yan Qing: "Ayuan!"

"Grandpa." Zhou Chenyuan stopped.

Yan Qing walked up to him and looked at He Xiaoran who was not far away, "Little girl, come here."

He Xiaoran didn't know why, so he came over and said, "Hello, Uncle Yan."

Yan Qing's eyes fell on Zhou Chenyuan, "Ayuan, do you know why you came here today?"

Zhou Chenyuan replied: "My mother informed me that today is my grandma's birthday."

"You also know that it's your grandma's birthday?" Yan Qing's tone suddenly became stern, "You know that today is your grandma's birthday, what have you done?"

Zhou Chenyuan was stunned.

Yan Qing loved Zhou Chenyuan very much and rarely taught him such a harsh tone. He didn't understand for a while.

"Grandpa, do you have any misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstanding?" Yan Qing sneered: "So, the slap mark on the little girl's face was not caused by you?"

Zhou Chenyuan's face turned red instantly. For a few minutes, Qian He Xiaoran was still talking about his numerous domestic violence incidents. Now grandpa suddenly brought it up again. Wasn't this trying to find an excuse for He Xiaoran?

"I was..." Zhou Chenyuan stopped talking mid-sentence.

What he almost blurted out was something he couldn't say to Yan Qing.

He couldn't tell his grandfather that it was his stepson he was going to beat, right?

"What is that? Make it clear!" Yan Qing's tone was still stern.

Zhou Chenyuan lowered his eyes and said nothing.

"On your grandma's birthday, beat up the guests your grandma invited over?!" Yan Qing glared at him, "If your mother knew about this, do you think she would forgive you?"

Zhou Chenyuan lowered his head and said nothing.

After Yan Qing gave a symbolic lecture, he said to He Xiaoran: "Little girl, you have been wronged. Your aunt felt very guilty when she saw the slap marks on your face. A Yuan was young and energetic, so he attacked

It’s not serious, it hurts, doesn’t it?”

He Xiaoran shook his head: "It's okay, it's just a small misunderstanding. Uncle Yan, don't take it to heart."

Yan Qing said to Zhou Chenyuan again: "This little girl is generous and doesn't care about you. Why don't you apologize to me?"

Before Zhou Chenyuan opened his mouth, He Xiaoran had already said: "Uncle Yan, don't be angry. In fact, Mr. Zhou just apologized to me. Just after he finished speaking, you came."

Zhou Chenyuan raised his eyes and glanced at her, but still said nothing.

In fact, He Xiaoran could clearly see this kind of thing. To put it bluntly, it was just what Yan Qing did to her.

If you really want to teach Zhou Chenyuan a lesson, do you need to hide in this place where there is no one around and give him a few scoldings in secret without any pain?

Thinking about Yan Qing, it's not easy either. He has to take care of his daughter and grandson on the one hand, and his wife and stepson on the other. It's difficult to do both.

He could only choose the safest way.

There were many distinguished guests here today, and it was difficult for him to deal with such a small matter in his busy schedule.

After Yan Qing said a few words to Zhou Chenyuan, he was called away by his servants.

Zhou Chenyuan glanced at her, cleared his throat, raised his noble head, and apologized proudly: "I'm sorry."

He Xiaoran smacked his lips, "It doesn't matter."

She raised her feet to leave, but Zhou Chenyuan immediately stopped her: "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to find a place to rest." She deliberately raised her feet to show him, "Look at my high heels. My feet are tired."

With that said, He Xiaoran stepped on high heels and walked away.

Zhou Chenyuan felt aggrieved inexplicably. He glared at He Xiaoran's back angrily, angry.

Nan Zhao came over: "Master, Madam just came to see you."

Zhou Chenyuan asked: "Did she ask He Xiaoran to be taken there?"

This "she" refers to He Xiaoran.

Nan Zhao lowered his eyes and shook his head: "No."

Zhou Chenyuan turned around and left with a sullen face. It would be better not to take her with him, lest he see her upset.

For this kind of banquet, in fact, side characters like He Xiaoran were of no importance. It was not a problem for her to choose a corner and eat and drink lavishly.

The banquet process was very complete, from the speech, to the speech, to the deep love between husband and wife, He Xiaoran had a cold face the whole time.

When it came time to cut the cake and give out red envelopes, He Xiaoran immediately became active. He played games to get gifts and other things, participated in the whole process, and spoke actively.

Finally, I got three red envelopes and a teddy bear.

Zhou Chenyuan stood on the side and watched her almost break her arm for a red envelope. His expression was a little complicated, and he felt a little embarrassed, but he felt that it was her words that he could barely accept.

"How much money did you make from dancing all night?"

He Xiaoran was secretly counting money when Zhou Chenyuan stood condescendingly in front of her.

He Xiaoran immediately put the money in his pocket and said, "Your grandpa is quite generous."

One red envelope is 500, and three is 1,500. Ji Shi and He Miao have made enough money to cover their living expenses.

Zhou Chenyuan glanced at her high heels and asked, "How are you going to get your feet back later?"

"Let it go." He Xiaoran glanced at him.

Zhou Chenyuan was angry. What did he mean by letting things go? She might still be waiting for Yan Shaozhuang to send her back!

"Don't leave in a hurry when the show ends. Just wait for me here." Zhou Chenyuan was afraid that she didn't understand: "I'll take you back by the way."

He Xiaoran's eyes flashed, "Okay!"

Looking up, she saw Hua Qingyu who didn't know when she came. She was looking for someone everywhere. When she saw her and Zhou Chenyuan, Hua Qingyu rushed over and said pitifully: "Ayuan, can you take me back later?"

?My driver took a temporary leave, I..."

Zhou Chenyuan immediately refused: "That won't work! I want to agree to send He Xiaoran as a gift. If I can't send it to you as a married man, just give up."

The issue of principle cannot be resolved, but Zhou Chenyuan attaches great importance to Hua Qingyu.

He turned to Nanzhao and said: "Nanzhao, you are single, there is no need to avoid suspicion, you can send Xiaoyu back later."

"yes."

He Xiaoran: “…”

Hua Qingyu: "…………"

He Xiaoran worked too hard to grab the red envelope. He Xiaoran sat in the corner and rubbed his ankles. He looked up and saw Yan Qing talking to Mrs. Xiao Wei. Yan Qing also specially called Yan Shaozhuang who was chatting with Zhou Zhichu.

Mrs. Xiao Wei hurriedly pushed Wei Sisi out. Judging from Wei Sisi's shy and timid appearance, it seemed that she was trying to sell her daughter.

He Xiaoran was a little sad. How could this be a birthday-themed banquet?
