After shaking Chu Qingxue's thin hand, Mrs. Sheng frowned and said, "Xiaoxue, why are you so thin? Your hands are all bones."
Hearing this, Sheng Yanxuan also turned to look at Chu Qingxue. She was indeed much thinner than her peers and looked as if she was malnourished, but fortunately she looked good and did not look weak or haggard.
Is it because she has been too busy and tired recently? Chu Qingxue has lost a lot of weight. Sheng Yanxuan was afraid that she would be blown away just now when she was standing in the cold wind.
Sensing Sheng Yanxuan's gaze, Chu Qingxue raised her eyes and smiled at him, "I ate quite well. I'm fine." After saying that, she lowered her head and remained silent, allowing Mrs. Sheng to ask.
Seeing Sheng Yanxuan return, Mrs. Sheng's attention was diverted, and her eyes looked at Chu Qingxue expectantly.
This made Sheng Yuan very embarrassed. It was clear that he was his home court just now, and he was like the head of the Sheng family who controlled all the affairs of the family. But as soon as the family of three came back, he was pushed aside and couldn't even interrupt.
There is no chance, it is simply unreasonable!
Sheng Yuan was so angry that he gritted his teeth and stared at Sheng Yanxuan fiercely, wishing to poke two holes in his face to embarrass him!
However, Mrs. Sheng turned a blind eye to the intimacy between Sheng Yanxuan and Chu Qingxue, and blindly asked about Chu Qingxue's physical condition, showing such concern that Sheng Yuan's teeth itched with hatred.
He looked at his wife Ruan Yun and asked her to come up and say a few words.
Ruan Yun glared at Sheng Yuan and thought to himself: A worthless man.
But since Mrs. Sheng was here, she could only bite the bullet and greet Chu Qingxue with a dignified and virtuous smile.
"Hey, my nephew-in-law is really thin. It just so happens that these dishes are ready. Let's hurry up and start dinner." Ruan Yun urged enthusiastically.
Chu Qingxue glanced at Ruan Yun indifferently, raised her lips politely, and did not answer.
She stood up and helped Mrs. Sheng into the restaurant together. Thinking of what would happen next, her hands and feet couldn't help but feel cold, but she didn't want to show timidity in front of such an occasion, so she held on even though she was at a loss.
Old Mrs. Sheng noticed that her granddaughter-in-law's hands were trembling, and she immediately felt heartbroken. She hugged her tightly and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid of Qingxue, grandma will protect you."
Chu Qingxue nodded, but her eyes were red.
I don’t know what grandma should think about herself after seeing those news. She doesn’t want to make her sad when she treats someone so kind to her now.
Thinking of her grandma's disappointed expression when she saw the news, Chu Qingxue's heart ached, the tip of her nose was sore, and she almost couldn't help but burst into tears.
Entering the restaurant, Chu Qingxue found Dong Ning standing inside!
Her pupils shrank, a little surprised as to why she was here.
Don't you mean family dinner?
Chu Qingxue frowned slightly and happened to catch Dong Ning's gaze. A faint smile appeared on the other person's face, as if he was provoking her.
But she quickly lowered her eyes, covering up her complicated emotions.
Sheng Yanxuan naturally noticed Chu Qingxue's abnormality, but he calmly took her into his arms and patted her back gently, indicating that she didn't need to worry.
Then Sheng Yanxuan glanced at Dong Ning coldly, and led Chu Qingxue to the place that belonged to the two of them.
After Chu Qingxue sat down, she glanced at Dong Ning and saw that she was still standing beside Mr. Sheng and Mrs. Sheng with a smile, and she became even more confused.
Dong Ning has such a good relationship with Mr. Sheng and Mrs. Sheng?
Did you lose again?
Thinking of this, Chu Qingxue couldn't help but smile bitterly. After all, her family background is indeed not as good as Dong Ning's. In a wealthy family, isn't it important to be well-matched?
Chu Qingxue felt all kinds of things in her heart. She was not willing to give in. She really was not willing to give in.
"What are you doing here?" Sheng Yanxuan's gloomy question interrupted Chu Qingxue's thinking. Chu Qingxue raised her head to look at Sheng Yanxuan and saw him looking at Dong Ning's gloomy face, with a sneer on her lips.
Dong Ning was not afraid at all. Instead, he said to Sheng Yanxuan with a proud smile: "Isn't it a long time since I last saw my grandparents? I miss you two old people. My grandparents spoiled me when I was young, didn't they?"
Her dimple-like smile looked extremely dazzling in Chu Qingxue's eyes, as if she was showing off how much love she had received from them.
A bitter taste came to her heart, Chu Qingxue lowered her eyes and laughed softly.
It turns out that her grandparents doted on Dong Ning so much. Chu Qingxue suddenly felt that she had thought she was unique and special before, which was really ridiculous.
Sheng Yanxuan's face turned even more ugly, and he stared at Dong Ning coldly, with a dangerous light flashing in his dark eyes. Why was this Dong Ning everywhere? He was really haunted.
Dong Ning seemed to feel the bone-chilling aura on Sheng Yanxuan's body and couldn't help but shiver.
"This is a family banquet for the Sheng family, not your Dong family." Sheng Yanxuan said in a deep voice, every word full of threats.
Sheng Yuan saw that the atmosphere suddenly became tense. He couldn't help but cough a few times. He put his hands behind his back and stood up slowly. He walked towards Dong Ning and put his hands on her shoulders, smiling innocently like an old father.
He looked at Sheng Yanxuan with an accusatory look in his eyes and looked up and down.
"Yan Xuan, you are becoming more and more rude. Ning Ning grew up with you, and no one can compare to our affection..." Sheng Yuan turned his eyes to Chu Qing in the middle of speaking.
Xue, intentionally or unintentionally, seemed to accuse Chu Qingxue of not being generous as a wife.
"Ning Ning is also a member of our Sheng family. Yan Xuan, you should treat Ning Ning better." Sheng Yuan smiled with yellow teeth and his eyebrows narrowed, but his expression made people feel no kindness at all, only cunning.
Chu Qingxue's face stiffened slightly, and she knew in her heart that Sheng Yuan had said this to her on purpose.
"Just entertain the guests you bring. There is no need to involve my wife and me." Sheng Yanxuan took Chu Qingxue's hand with a cold face and sat down.
When Sheng Yuan saw this, the wrinkles on his face trembled twice, and the unbearable smile on his face froze. He turned his head and looked at Chu Qingxue and said: "Ningning, Yanxuan won't do anything to you. After all, it's been a toy for many years."
Companion, you two can be considered childhood sweethearts..."
When Chu Qingxue heard this, she couldn't help snorting coldly, and raised her eyes to look at the nosy Sheng Yuan, with a gentle smile on her face but no sign of weakness in her eyes.
"Well, Ning Ning is indeed a good sister. She is beautiful and powerful. It's a pity. Why do I think Ning Ning never has a partner? Could it be that there is some flaw in her character..." Chu Qingxue pretended to be worried and surprised.
expression, covering his mouth with an expression of disbelief.
"This is not a small problem. Uncle, since you treat Ning Ning like a treasure, why don't you find a good son-in-law for her, otherwise I'm afraid no one will want her in the future." Chu Qingqing pretended to be regretful.
Shaking her head, after speaking, she looked at Sheng Yuan with a pair of clear and innocent eyes: "Look, Ning Ning's life-long event cannot be delayed."
