After hearing Tang Xue's words, the woman finally raised her head, it was Zhu Lian.
"You...you are Miss He's little daughter who was just found by the He family. Hello, my name is Zhu Lian."
Upon hearing this, Tang Xue introduced with a smile: "Hello, my name is Tang Xue."
Seeing Tang Xue's lively and bright smile, Zhu Lian couldn't help but said: "Miss Tang, you are so beautiful."
Tang Xue always felt something strange when she heard someone calling her Miss, not to mention that the girl in front of her seemed not much older than her, "Miss Zhu, actually you can just call me Xiaoxue, that's what everyone calls me."
Normally no one would want to talk to Zhu Lian. Seeing Tang Xue being so cordial now, she just felt a little unreal, and then a smile finally appeared on her face and said: "Really, then I will call you Xiaoxue from now on."
Yes, but don’t call me Miss Zhu, just call me Xiaolian.”
"Okay, okay, Xiaolian..."
Tang Xue was very happy that she could make a new friend at the banquet, so she immediately started talking to Zhu Lian. When she found out that Zhu Lian was already twenty years old, she was full of surprise, "I thought you and Zhu Lian were
I'm about the same age, so it seems I have to call you Sister Xiaolian."
Zhu Lian hurriedly waved her hand and said: "No, no, just call me Xiaolian. Besides, we are not much different in age."
Seeing Zhu Lian's insistent look, Tang Xue said cheerfully: "Okay, then I'd better call you Xiao Lian."
The two looked at each other and smiled, then took something to eat together.
"Xiaolian, are there any interesting places in Hong Kong City? Although my sister and I went shopping these days, we didn't visit many places."
Hearing this, Zhu Lian hurriedly started to introduce, but before she could say anything, Zhu Rui came over with the two of them, "Oh... my good sister, so you are here, before you go out
Aren’t you even full? You actually came here to eat and drink, which is a disgrace to our Zhu family.”
Although it's a banquet, everyone drinks and socializes more, and doesn't really eat too much. But Zhu Lian's plate in front of her is filled with all kinds of snacks and dishes. One look at it and she knows that she came here specifically to eat.
of.
One of the people behind Zhu Rui was Liu Lingling. She glanced at Zhu Lian and said: "Who is the real eldest lady of the Zhu family? Look at your little family style, how can you compare to Rui'er."
"I...I..."
Zhu Lian almost burst into tears after hearing what was said. Although she knew she was going to attend the He family's banquet before, no one told her the specific time to go out. However, she was always used to making preparations early and packed herself up early.
When it was time to eat something, Zhu Rui had to go out early and had to take her with her, so she didn't have time to eat.
Tang Xue looked at the scene in front of her with some surprise, then frowned and said: "Since the food is placed here, of course it is for people to eat, why are you talking about Xiaolian like that? What's more, I am eating here too, is it possible that I also lose it?"
The He family is embarrassed."
When Zhu Rui and the others heard this, they looked at Tang Xue beside them.
Naturally, Tang Xue is now the young lady of the He family, so of course they will not say anything too extreme. However, Tang Xue did not impress them as deeply as Tang Shuang, so Zhu Rui and Liu Lingling did not pay much attention to her.
inside.
"Miss Tang, of course we didn't mean that."
"That's what you mean. You just don't want to see us eat, right? These things are obviously for people to eat, but you still accuse us of being petty after we eat them. I really don't know what you are thinking."
During the previous horse racing, Tang Xue had no good impression of Zhu Rui and Liu Lingling. Today, she saw them bullying Zhu Lian with her own eyes, and her impression was even worse.
"You... Even if these things are indeed for people to eat, who will come to eat at a good banquet? There will be a dance later, so I am not afraid that you will eat too much and you will not be able to dance later.
?" Liu Lingling saw that Tang Xue didn't pay attention to them at all, and her temper immediately rose.
"you……"
Tang Xue also knew that there would be a dance later, but she couldn't dance at all and had no intention of participating. But if she really said that, she always felt like she would be laughed at again.
At this time, Tang Shuang walked straight over. She glanced at Zhu Rui and the others, then walked to Tang Xue and asked, "Xiaoxue, what happened? Why do you look so angry?"
Tang Xue explained the matter directly, and finally hummed in a low voice: "I'm already hungry, and they won't let me eat. What's more, I don't plan to dance."
Hearing this, Tang Shuang smiled and touched her hair and said, "Of course you have to eat when you are hungry. Eat quickly." As she said this, she turned to look at Zhu Lian.
Tang Xue hurriedly introduced: "Sister, this is Zhu Lian, the friend I just made. She is also hungry. We were eating together just now."
"Okay, then you can continue to eat together."
"good."
When Tang Xue saw her sister coming, she felt that she had a backbone and was in the mood to eat again, so she took Zhu Lian and sat down beside her.
Zhu Lian was a little worried, but seeing Tang Xue's relaxed look, she glanced at Tang Shuang curiously. Originally, she thought her sister Zhu Rui would continue to say something, but Zhu Rui didn't say anything and only glanced at Tang Shuang.
, and left with the people.
When Zhu Lian saw this, she looked at Tang Shuang in disbelief, feeling that the other party was so powerful.
Tang Xue was also very happy, and then told Zhu Lian about her victory over Zhu Rui and the others last time.
"Wow...your sister is so amazing."
Zhu Lian looked at Tang Shuang with even more admiration.
"That's right, my sister has always been very powerful."
At the subsequent banquet, Zhu Rui did not appear again, and Tang Shuang and Tang Xue did not go to dance. When the banquet was over, the two sisters followed Helan and Pan Lihua to see off the guests, and then went back to rest.
The next day, Tang Shuang got up early to exercise. After returning to the house, she received a call from Chen Guangyang, which surprised her.
"Brother Chen, what's the matter?"
Chen Guangyang smiled when he heard this and said, "It's nothing. It's just that Mr. Qi knew that you went to Hong Kong City, so he asked me to call you."
"Oh...is there something wrong with Mr. Qi?"
"It's not a big deal. Mr. Qi just wants to ask you to go somewhere."
"Where?"
Tang Shuang was a little curious. Could it be that Mr. Qi had been to Hong Kong City before?
And Chen Guangyang has already said: "That place is also an industry owned by Mr. Qi. It is a shipping company. In previous years, he would have people make a special trip to get the account books. Now that you happen to be in the port city, I would like to trouble you to go there and bring the account books back.
."
"This...is not good."
Things like ledgers are private things, and it would be bad if the contents inside were accidentally leaked.
