Originally, the seats for birthday banquets were very particular. Close relatives or those with a particularly distinguished status would sit with the host. Although the Zuo Family and the Qi Family were old friends, there were many families that were old friends with the Qi Family. Therefore, no matter how you looked at it, the Zuo Family and the Qi Family were not qualified to sit together.
Therefore, it was natural for them to sit at one table.
This was actually understandable, but it was unusual for Qi Yan to let Zuo Yin sit at the same table as him.
"You sit over there."
Qi Yan pointed to the direction of the main table.
Zuo Yin had already sat down. Hearing him say that, she couldn't help but be stunned.
She communicated with Qi Yan with her eyes: What nonsense are you talking about? Seeing this, Zuo Lian could no longer sit still. She saw that Qi Yan had specially bypassed her and then said these words to Zuo Yin. It was as if he was slapping her face. Her face twitched a little as she said, "Brother Yan, the number of people at each table has already been divided.
It doesn't make sense, does it? "
Qi Yan glanced at Zuo Lian with a trace of coldness in his eyes.
Zuo Lian suddenly felt a chill in her heart. She couldn't help but shiver. When she looked at Qi Yan again, she found that Qi Yan seemed to be as gentle as before.
Was it an illusion?
Qi Yan smiled and said, "There's nothing wrong with it. I asked her to sit over there. No one can say no."
Zuo Lian's face twisted when she heard that.
Qi Yan saw that Zuo Yin didn't move. He lowered his head and repeated, "Hurry up and come with me."
Zuo Yin had a headache. Didn't this person know that he had already gained a lot of hatred for her? Did he know the meaning of going to the main table?
Regardless of identity or status, it wasn't her turn to go to the main table. If she really went, then the meaning would be completely different.
"Hey!"
Seeing that Zuo Yin didn't move, Qi Yan's voice deepened.
Zuo Lian saw that Qi Yan was determined to let Zuo Yin go to the main table. Her eyes turned red and she quickly looked at her mother, hoping that she could smooth things over.
If that bitch really went to the main table, their plan couldn't be carried out.
Mrs. Zuo of course knew what Zuo Lian meant. She glanced at Father Zuo and saw that he didn't have any intention of stopping them. She couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Even if this man was dissatisfied with that bitch, he still had high hopes.
If she didn't give her a fatal blow, she and Little Lian wouldn't be able to defeat the little slut's position in his heart.
Madam Zuo narrowed her eyes and looked at Qi Yan with a smile. "Young Master Qi, if Ah Yin doesn't want to go, don't force her. You should understand that, right?"
These words sounded reserved, but it was hinting that Zuo Yin did not have that kind of feeling for Qi Yan.
As long as one had a bit of self-esteem, they would definitely turn around and leave.
Qi Yan was always unexpectedly persistent when it came to Zuo Yin, but since he had said it in front of so many people, he had to get an accurate answer from Zuo Yin. His voice was slightly cold as he asked in a deep voice, "I'll ask you again. Will you go over or not?"
Zuo Yin: "…"
Seeing this, Zuo Lian hurriedly said, "Brother Yan, sister doesn't want to go. Don't force it."
Qi Yan didn't even look at Zuo Lian.
She looked straight at Zuo Yin.
Father Zuo glanced at Madam Zuo and Zuo Lian with dissatisfaction, then glanced at Zuo Yin. His voice was low and dignified as he said, "If you want to go, then go. If you don't want to go, then don't go. Give me a definite answer!"
Zuo Yin focused and looked at Qi Yan. Just as she opened her mouth, Old Master Qi at the main table spoke.
"Qi Yan, what are you still standing there for? Come over here! "
Qi Yan: "…"
How could Old Master Qi not know his son's thoughts? But more and more people were looking at him. Zuo Lian clearly didn't want to go over, but he still wouldn't let go. He might be shameless, but the Qi family was.
Old Master Qi's voice was not angry. "Qi Yan!"
Qi Yan's face was hazy. He suddenly laughed in a low voice that only the two of them could hear. "Your heart is hard enough!"
Then, Qi Yan turned and walked to the main table.
At this moment, the gazes that had gathered on this side dispersed.
Zuo Lian also secretly sighed in relief. She was proud in her heart, but on the surface, she teased, "Sister, you really know how to give Brother Yan face. You really have a lot of face!"
"Alright, you don't say anymore!"
Father Zuo warned.
Zuo Lian saw that Father Zuo was on Zuo Yin's side and her face fell. She snorted coldly to express her dissatisfaction.
Then.
Father Zuo looked at Zuo Yin with a complicated look in his eyes. He seemed to be a little regretful and sighing.
Such a good opportunity was missed just like that.
Everyone knew why Qi Yan had asked Zuo Yin to sit at the main table. Recently, there had been rumors that Mrs. Zuo had been arranging blind dates for Qi Yan, so she had looked for a lot of ladies with good character and academic performance.
But they were all rejected by Qi Yan.
Therefore, there was a rumor that Qi Yan already had a sweetheart.
Since so many people were gathered here today, maybe he would publicly announce the girl he liked. Everyone could see that the girl was Zuo Yin.
If Zuo Yin agreed to sit at the main table, then Qi Yan would definitely announce his marriage partner.
But Zuo Yin didn't agree to sit there.
What a pity, what a pity.
Of course, Zuo Yin knew Qi Yan's purpose, but the person she loved was not Qi Yan, so she had no right to sit there. If it was just a moment of vanity that hurt Qi Yan, this was something she didn't want to see.
It was better to have a short pain than a long pain.
Although the rejection now made Qi Yan embarrassed for a while, it was still better than slowly discovering the truth later.
Zuo Yin apologized to Qi Yan in her heart.
I'm really sorry that I've let his kind intentions down.
This was just an insignificant episode, so everyone tacitly agreed not to mention it again.
At the birthday banquet, everyone was actively trying to build relationships. Zuo Yin didn't need to win over anyone, nor did she need to build relationships, so she just sat in her seat and drank alone.
Zuo Yin's alcohol tolerance was not bad.
But today, she suddenly wanted to get drunk.
He clearly knew that everything he did was the most reasonable and rational, but for some reason, his chest still felt stuffy, and his entire being became stifled.
At this time, Zuo Lian sat next to Zuo Yin. With a smile on her face, she pushed a glass of champagne in front of Zuo Yin and said sincerely, "Sister, although we didn't get along in the past, you clearly rejected Brother Yan today. In the future, there will be no possibility between you two, so I don't have to look at you anymore.
If you're willing to bury the hatchet with me, then drink this glass of champagne. "
Zuo Yin was already in a bad mood. She heard Zuo Lian say that there would be no possibility between her and Qi Yan in the future.
Her heart suddenly twitched fiercely.
It was so uncomfortable.
She had always been vigilant towards Zuo Lian, but today, she was in a bad mood. Coupled with the fact that she drank a lot just now, the alcohol numbed her nerves. Zuo Yin saw that she was forced to drink, so she didn't even think about it and drank it directly.
When she drank the champagne in one gulp, Zuo Lian's mouth suddenly broke into a sly smile.
She said with a smile, "If you drink it, I'll take it that you've forgiven me. Sister, I'll toast you again."
With that, Zuo Lian poured a glass of champagne for Zuo Yin.
Zuo Yin drank it in one gulp.
Her head was a little dizzy, and her whole body suddenly lost strength and became soft.
