Chapter 75
The hotel was brightly lit, as bright as day, setting off Su Ruoyun's exquisite makeup. Her eyebrows and eyes were calm and waveless, and the people around were even more dumbfounded.
In an instant, everyone's hearts were churning, and everyone was recalling whether they had said anything inappropriate, and whether these inappropriate words had reached the ears of this Miss Su.
After all, during the days when the rumors were most rampant, almost everyone in the circle was spreading them, but who knew that the relationship between the two was that of brother and sister.
A moment of silence spread in the air, also attracting others to watch.
Finally, someone woke up from a dream, realized that this overly long silence was a bit strange, and hurriedly piled up a smile to pick up the conversation: "Definitely, definitely, we will definitely go to support it when the time comes."
The plan of the year 2000... although not as strict as before, a small opening was opened in rural areas, but for unit personnel, the control was still strict.
With Old Man Su and Old Lady Su on top, the Su family paid the fine, and Su Zhanqi stayed in his original position for two more years, and this matter was finally turned over.
Born under 'high pressure', it was enough to see that she was deeply loved. If she became the son-in-law of the Su family, it would be like stepping on a blue cloud ladder, which could make people ascend to the sky in one step.
There were no fewer people staring at Su Ruoyun before, but because she was hiding, everyone had to give up.
Now, she appeared in front of people, and the guests around looked at her with more and more enthusiasm, looking like hungry dogs seeing meat bones.
Su Ruoyun, who was coveted, was drumming in her heart, but she was calm on the surface.
Last time when celebrating Lin Shangqing's birthday, she wasn't so much in the spotlight, but at this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on her, performing a gaze ceremony.
At the birthday banquet, I don't know how many people were staring at Su Ruoyun, but Su Mingyan had been standing by her side. Even if others had the heart to chat, they could only say hello and didn't dare to chat much.
But there were always omissions.
"Mr. Zhao, Mrs. Zhao." Su Mingyan saw a couple walking into the banquet hall, and then brought Su Ruoyun to meet them.
"My father and mother are still out of town and really couldn't rush back in time, so they sent us to celebrate the birthday." That Mr. Zhao said.
"..."
After a few simple pleasantries, Su Mingyan turned sideways and raised his hand to signal Su Ruoyun beside him, introducing: "This is my sister."
That Mr. Zhao heard this, nodded politely, and Mrs. Zhao hooked the corners of her mouth, revealing a bright smile: "Miss Su."
Su Ruoyun responded generously: "Mr. Zhao, Mrs. Zhao."
After greeting, Su Mingyan: "Grandfather is in the back, I will lead the two over."
As he said this, he gave Su Ruoyun a wink.
Su Ruoyun stood quietly on the spot, watching the three leave, her eyes following the figures of the three as they walked away. She saw that Mr. Zhao naturally put his hand on Mrs. Zhao's waist, the two figures were dependent on each other, their steps were tacit, showing love.
Su Ruoyun had also heard from some gossip before that this Mrs. Zhao had an ordinary family background, and following from the local to the central, it could be considered a good story.
She had no time to think more. Seeing Su Mingyan leave, someone dared to walk toward Su Ruoyun with a wine glass.
Seeing this, Su Ruoyun's heart "thumped", secretly saying it was not good. She wanted to grease her feet and slip away, but that person had already walked quickly to her front. After all, this was to celebrate Old Man Su's birthday, and she couldn't have a cold face, so a gentle smile bloomed on her face.
"Miss Su."
"Hello."
People kept coming over one after another, and it wasn't until Ms. Ming walked out of the women's lounge that Su Ruoyun was sent away.
"Grandpa and Grandma are both in the lounge in the back, you go over there first."
Su Ruoyun responded with a "Good" without hesitation, gathered her skirt, and walked through the crowd unhurriedly.
As soon as she walked into the lounge, she heard someone calling her.
"Boss Lady."
Chen Zheyan had sharp eyes and saw Su Ruoyun at a glance, greeted her excitedly, waved his hand, and the corners of his mouth raised high. That smile was as bright as a big golden retriever full of vitality.
As Su Ruoyun walked closer, he asked again: "Are you also here to attend the birthday banquet today?"
"Yes, Young Master Chen, then I'll go in first." Su Ruoyun nodded at him, and then nodded slightly to the group of people beside her.
By the time Su Ruoyun crossed the Zitan wood carved screen, the people outside called Chen Zheyan unkind: "Knowing Miss Su's identity and not telling us..."
Chen Zheyan held his phone with one hand, and the screen was instantly dominated by 999+ message reminders. He saw his finger swipe on the screen, entered the WeChat group, and took the wine glass from his side with the other hand, pressed the edge of the cup to his lips, and asked carelessly: "Miss Su? Who?"
He came here to hide for a quiet moment. There were various big figures inside, so he wouldn't be introduced to girls every three steps like in the banquet hall. The only drawback was that he had to pretend to be serious in front of the elders at all times, and didn't even dare to play with his phone much, so he missed the discussions in various groups.
"It's the one who just went in, the eldest daughter of the Su family."
These words entered his ears, and the content of the chat group also appeared in front of him. A mouthful of wine he had just swallowed was sprayed out, and Chen Zheyan then cursed a dirty word: "Cough, cough, cough, I fuck, wasn't it said—"
There were too many people and mouths, so he couldn't say it.
He swallowed the dirty words on his lips hard and turned all the grievances in his heart into a secret curse: MMP.
His thoughts drifted away, and Chen Zheyan thought of the blind date with the Miss Su he hadn't met before. Huo Jingcheng went on his behalf. Thinking about it now, how could the third brother be so good? What grabbing people, he clearly wanted to be the girl's brother-in-law.
The more he thought, the more annoyed he became, and he drank the wine in his cup in hatred.
Over there, Su Ruoyun walked into the inner room gracefully. The slight and fragmented footsteps seemed to pluck the invisible string in the air, causing several people in the room to raise their eyes one after another, casting their gaze toward the door.
In the large room, several people sat on the Taishi chairs, each with a powerful aura, not angry but prestigious, all of them were big figures who often appeared in major news.
Su Ruoyun's expression was calm. Even though she was watched by these people, she didn't show timidity, smiled slightly, and bloomed with a shallow smile, which was a silent but polite greeting to everyone.
Old Man Su raised his hand to signal her to come over: "Why did you come in?"
The tea table on the side was set with a tea stove, which was slowly emitting warm breath. The tea water in the purple clay teapot was already boiling, making a rolling sound.
Seeing that no one was taking care of it, Su Ruoyun took the initiative to step forward. While grabbing a plain handkerchief on the side, she turned to face Old Man Su and responded softly: "Mom and Dad are outside."
The wet handkerchief wrapped the handle properly. She bent over, lifted the pot body lightly, and the amber tea water flowed out from the spout, slowly filling the tea water in several cups, before she put the purple clay teapot back on the tea stove.
