Xiao Chuyun narrowed his eyes. "Although you are acting in front of me, are you still afraid that he will misunderstand?"
Jiang Yansheng patted his cheeks, trying to make himself look more natural.
"How could that be? Mr. Xiao, you are overthinking."
Her voice was still trembling uncontrollably.
Xiao Chuyun stayed silent for a moment and suddenly chuckled. "Why are you so nervous? I was just mentioning him. "
"It's not just today's banquet. I don't think anyone from the Gu family will show up in the next few parties. There are some internal problems in the Gu clan."
"What happened?" Jiang Yansheng asked.
When she met Xiao Chuyun's faint smile, she swallowed her anxiety. "I still have to care about the Gu clan. After all, the divorce agreement hasn't been finalized yet. Maybe I will get less money."
"I don't know the details." Xiao Chuyun lowered his voice. "And I don't know what I heard. I only heard that there has been a big change in the senior management. It seems that Old Master Gu is very angry about something. I guess Gu Yan must have done something bad to anger him."
Jiang Yansheng immediately thought of Gu Yan dragging his suitcase and leaving yesterday.
No wonder Gu Yan said those words. It turned out that there was such a problem in the company.
She frowned and looked down, thinking about something. Suddenly, she felt a warm touch.
Jiang Yansheng looked up and found that Xiao Chuyun was smoothing her brows.
"Don't frown. My parents are here."
She followed the man's gaze and saw a middle-aged man and woman in luxurious clothes walking towards them.
Xiao Chuyun was tall and had long legs, so when Xiao Father and Xiao Mother saw their precious son, they beamed with joy.
But when his gaze slowly shifted to Jiang Yansheng, the smile on his face froze.
Mrs. Xiao was a rich lady about the same age as Shen Lu.
She wore heavy makeup and took good care of herself. Except for some fine wrinkles when she smiled, when she kept a straight face, there was no trace of age on her face at all.
Mrs. Xiao was holding a glass of wine in her hand. When she walked in front of them, her face was almost completely dark.
She slammed the glass on the table with a loud bang, the sound like ice shards.
"Chu Yun, is this the good girl you told me about?" Mother Xiao still had some sense of propriety.
Although she glanced at Jiang Yansheng with some dissatisfaction, she didn't hit a smiling person. She didn't have to mock and ridicule Jiang Yansheng right away.
She wondered if Xiao Chuyun was joking with her.
"Yes, Mom. I've been dating Yansheng for more than a month." Xiao Chuyun smiled and put his arm around Jiang Yansheng's shoulder.
Because she was wearing a backless gown today, Xiao Chuyun's palm just happened to cover her shoulder. Jiang Yansheng was a little annoyed and wanted to remove the man's hand, but he could only smile when he saw Mrs. Xiao's cold frown.
"You …" Mama Xiao was exasperated. She pulled Papa Xiao forward and said, "Look at the good son you've taught. He's a good-for-nothing, and now he's in this state too. It's killing me!" Mama Xiao was furious. She dragged Papa Xiao forward and said, "Look at the good son you've taught.
Mr. Xiao hurriedly comforted his wife's emotional turmoil. "It's not settled yet, right? Chu Yun also said that they're just dating. They're not really going to marry her … "
"Dad, I've thought about marriage. If everything goes well, I'll marry Yansheng." Xiao Chuyun calmly put a landmine in the hearts of the three of them.
Jiang Yansheng felt dizzy, and she pursed her lips.
"When did I say that?"
Jiang Yansheng squeezed out a few words from between his teeth. He stepped on Xiao Chuyun's foot where Mr. and Mrs. Xiao couldn't see.
"I'm just lying to them." Xiao Chuyun didn't cry out in pain. He winked at Jiang Yansheng and said, "Let them get used to a woman like you in advance. In the future, no matter what kind of woman I bring home, they won't have much of an opinion after comparing."
Jiang Yansheng, who had suddenly become the lowest in the comparison category, felt angry.
"Mr. Xiao has really paved the way for his future."
Xiao Chuyun gestured to Jiang Yansheng to keep quiet. The two people next to him were in full swing, and they were about to quarrel.
"If you want to marry a woman like Jiang Yansheng, I will never agree!" Mrs. Xiao was about to scream. She felt that all the makeup she had put on before going out was going to fall apart.
However, the marriage of her eldest son, who was the most promising, couldn't fall apart.
"Didn't we say before that we should be more open-minded about the marriage in the Yun Nation? The choice is also in his hands. The Yun Nation is already so old. If you still control him, it might cause resentment. "
Mr. Xiao looked at Jiang Yansheng with some vague affection. Although he also knew that Jiang Yansheng wasn't a romantic person, if his daughter-in-law was so pleasing to the eye and behaved obediently in the future, it wouldn't be a problem.
"What are you doing?" Mrs. Xiao was like a keg of dynamite that would ignite at the slightest spark. Her sharp nails scratched a few red marks on Mrs. Xiao's hand.
She beat her chest and stamped her feet. "What do you mean by this? Didn't you agree when I showed you the list of blind dates in the Yun Nation? Now the Yun Nation only has one, and it's obviously the second daughter of the Jiang Family. Why did you bring my sister back? This is clearly a 100 million yuan reward! Tell me! Are you still being biased? Are you the one who changed the name list? "
Mr. Xiao's expression was a little ugly. "When did I change the list of blind dates for the two of them? Can't you speak logically? "
"Then tell me, how did the two of them meet the higher-ups?" Mrs. Xiao laughed coldly. "I'm really curious. It wasn't the same day and time, so how did they meet? Could it be that there was a ghost? Are you still thinking of letting Xiao Chuyi have some power? Let me tell you, your youngest son has been raised to be useless! You might as well hurry up and think about the marriage of the Yun Nation! "
"Mom, don't be angry."
Xiao Chuyun, who was leisurely standing at the side, seemed to be used to seeing Mrs. Xiao's thunderous anger. He let go of Jiang Yansheng's hand and slowly patted the back of the panting Mrs. Xiao.
"I didn't bump into Yansheng because the blind date list was changed," he said as he looked at Jiang Yansheng with gentle eyes.
Jiang Yansheng responded gently as he rubbed his hands behind his back.
Xiao Chuyun's face, which was supposed to be full of shrewdness and calculation, actually had such a gentle smile on it. It was really creepy.
"It's just some work contact. We bumped into each other occasionally. I think Yansheng is quite a good person." Xiao Chuyun was like a fire extinguisher for Mrs. Xiao. Once he started talking, Mrs. Xiao could suppress her anger and listen to him quietly.
"Chuyun, don't you know about this woman?" Mrs. Xiao frowned so much that she could strangle a fly. She quickly fanned her ears with one hand.
"This woman has been divorced. She's second-hand. Do you still want her?" Although Mrs. Xiao lowered her voice, every word and sentence was passed to Jiang Yansheng's ears.
Jiang Yansheng was forced to maintain a smile, but he immediately put it away.
Middle-aged women who were full of nonsense were the most annoying.
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Xiao Chuyun was much taller than Mrs. Xiao. He gently put his arm around Mrs. Xiao's shoulders, and his voice was firm. "Yansheng has already told me that her marriage with Gu Yan is only in name. They got married for the company's shares."
When he said this, he looked like a young boy who had been brainwashed by Jiang Yansheng.
Mrs. Xiao felt even more haggard.
Her face was as pale as a sheet, and her eyes were red as she cried in her eldest son's broad chest. "Chuyun, listen to me. It's not just about her marriage. Do you know what else she did before she got married? Back then, it was spread all over Jiang City. Even if she didn't have sex with Gu Yan after getting married, she was definitely not clean. Why did you marry such a woman? It disgusts me to see her every day … "
Mrs. Xiao's voice was full of tears, and her words were reasonable.
Jiang Yansheng stood at the side and leaned against the table lazily. He pursed his lips and looked at Xiao Chuyun, who was still smiling happily.
Those who didn't know better would think that she was going to buy Xiao Chuyun and send him to a brothel.
It was as if she was crying at a funeral.
And she made her sound so broken.
"Yansheng told me that someone wanted to harm her. It's all fake." Xiao Chuyun comforted Mrs. Xiao patiently and gave Mr. Xiao a look.
"How do you know that someone wanted to harm her? How can you just listen to a woman like that? Do whatever she says? "Mother Xiao was still very agitated. She pointed her finger at Jiang Yansheng impolitely.
Jiang Yansheng felt that his temper was already very good. In front of such an unreasonable woman, he had to pretend that he didn't hear a word and smile politely.
"Alright, let's talk about this at home." Mr. Xiao stepped forward and pulled Mrs. Xiao back. His voice was very dignified.
"Look at where you are now. Let's talk about this at home. Don't embarrass yourself outside. Besides, even if Chuyun said it, can he decide it alone?"
Jiang Yansheng covered his mouth and yawned.
He always felt that he should clear up his bad reputation a little bit.
She took a few steps forward and smiled flirtatiously as if her body was falling apart.
She picked up the wine glass that was put down by Mrs. Xiao and shook it gently. There was still half a glass left, just enough for one person to take a sip.
"Auntie, don't be angry. If you get angry, everyone will be worried." Jiang Yansheng raised his glass to Mrs. Xiao like a family member.
"What happened in the past, good or bad, was all told by others."
