Chapter 268 The Match Appears
Several elders laughed, and those who didn't know Rongyue were watching in confusion.
Xia Xiluo's family looked quite dissatisfied.
Obviously, the families sitting here are all from high-class families, and the young children of each family are also sitting here, but the elders just tease a woman with no family background and no background, who is divorced from Mo Chen! To put it bluntly, the Nangong family has fallen, and they are also at odds with the Gong Yi family. Why can she, Nangong Rongyue, still have this honor?
In addition to the Xia family, the other families also found it unbelievable. Several young men were also observing Rongyue and Mo Chen. They were all speechless, but a woman they didn't even know stole the spotlight. The men didn't feel anything, but the daughters were all puzzled and couldn't help but look at Rongyue a few more times.
Xia Xiluo looked at Qin Huaiyi and found that Qin Huaiyi's eyes had never left Mo Chen. She and Qin Huaiyi knew each other when they were young, and they had played together. If Qin Huaiyi had not moved abroad with her parents at such a young age, she should have been a strong opponent for Mo Chen.
Qin Huaiyi's parents are both diplomats, and the Qin family is much more prominent than the Xia family. Qin Huaiyi is the only girl in the Qin family's generation, but she is spoiled by her family and is trained in all the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. If she wants to be with Mo Chen, the Qin family will definitely be happy, and Gong Yidu may not be unhappy either. After all, Qin Huaiyi's family background and appearance are outstanding among her peers.
When Xia Xiluo grew up, she felt that it was a good thing that Qin Huaiyi left when he was a child, otherwise she might not be the person around Mo Chen.
Seeing Qin Huaiyi looking at Mo Chen with affection in her eyes, Xia Xiluo looked at Rongyue. Isn't the enemy of my enemy my friend? Qin Huaiyi has never hit a wall since she was a child. If she falls into trouble with Nangong Rongyue, what will she do? Xia Xiluo wants to see it now. If someone can torment Nangong Rongyue, she can also vent her anger.
Thinking about it this way, Xia Xiluo felt that it was not bad for the elders to praise Nangong Rongyue in such occasions. But the situation would be different when the younger generations got together. Wouldn't Nangong Rongyue become the target of public criticism as long as they provoked her a few times?
"Old Master Li even takes care of his own great-grandson. Xiaoxin and Mo Chen are two brothers who grew up together. Mo Chen's child is so grown up now, but Xiaoxin is still single! It stands to reason that it shouldn't be difficult to find a partner with Xiaoxin's conditions, so why hasn't he found one yet?" Qin Yuejun smiled and looked at Li Xin, then at Rongyue, and finally her eyes fell on Old Master Li.
Rongyue glanced at Li Xin, and when her eyes met Li Xin's, a slight smile appeared in the corners of Li Xin's eyes.
"My brother and Brother Mo Chen must not throw Sister Xiluo out. The three of them grew up together. How come Brother Mo Chen already has a child, while my brother and Sister Xiluo are still single?" Yuyan looked at Qin Yuejun with a smile.
Qin Yuejun looked at Xia Xiluo who was sitting next to her and smiled, but the smile on her lips was not as natural as before.
"Aren't the brothers and sisters sitting here today also unmarried? Since none of them have found a family, it only means that Brother Mo Chen and Sister Rong Yue are a match made in heaven and it is a purely individual phenomenon! My brother is of course not in a hurry. He has two such lovely adopted sons before he gets married. Since they are adopted sons, they were recognized after drinking tea. Even if he never gets married and has no children in his life, he still has two children to take care of him. This kind of blessing cannot be obtained by many people! What's more, all of my uncles, aunts, and brothers in the Li family have been trained in the army. They all married and had children late, but none of them were left out. This shows that my grandfather knows it very well!" Li Yuyan finally raised her head as if proud.
"You little bitch! You have no respect for your parents!" Mr. Li looked at Yuyan with satisfaction. "But your words are true, even if they are rough!"
As soon as Mr. Li finished speaking, everyone echoed him in praising Yuyan. Qin Yuejun really didn't expect that Li Yuyan could directly retort to her in front of so many people. The tone of her words was like a junior joking with an elder, but the content was really sharp. Qin Yuejun felt like she had eaten a fly, but she had to put on a smile.
Rongyue looked at Qin Yuejun. She could see the secret changes in Qin Yuejun's expression. Although she was smiling, her eyes that wanted to kill someone for a moment could not deceive anyone. After all, she was a well-known female entrepreneur. She must be strong and decisive in normal times and no one dared to refute her. How could she accept being speechless by a junior in such an important occasion?
Rongyue looked at Yuyan again. She understood that Yuyan was still angry with them because of the conversation between Xia Xiluo and her family that they heard last time. This time Qin Yuejun pointed the finger at Li Xin again, and Yuyan was also angry. If she confronted Qin Yuejun, she would be accused of being disrespectful if she was criticized seriously, but she made it clear that Qin Yuejun should know what was going on and stop bringing up Li Xin.
The banquet began, Yuyan ran to Rongyue and sat with her.
"Did you go too far just now?" Rongyue leaned towards Yuyan and whispered.
Yuyan also came over, and the two of them almost came head to head.
"Is this too much? Isn't everything I said true? I didn't even mention how lucky Xiluo was to have a child even though she's not married! I'm giving her face! Next time she dares to bring up my brother, I won't show any mercy."
"...After meeting her, I feel that Qin Yuejun is not a magnanimous person. I'm afraid she won't be able to accept your disgrace."
"Am I afraid of her?! Even if she is angry, she still dares not say anything! Even if she doesn't like me, she should consider whether she can afford to offend my Li family! Everyone can bully others by taking advantage of their power!"
Rongyue looked at Yuyan. Although she was worried, she was right.
Yuyan saw that Rongyue was still worried.
"Oh, Sister Rongyue, don't worry! It's just a few words, what can it matter? And we are in the inner court, I am not refutating her in front of everyone. It's okay! We haven't seen each other for a long time, let's not talk about her! What are you doing recently? Concentrate on your creation?" Yuyan held Rongyue's hand.
"Yuyan, I remember you said last time that you went to the same university as Li Xin and Mo Chen, right?"
Yuyan nodded.
Rongyue felt happy for a moment, wouldn't that mean she was very close to Yuyan?
"What are you laughing at? I've been in college for two years and you're happy for me?" Yuyan was confused.
"Of course not! I..."
Rongyue looked at several young women who walked towards her. Among them, Xia Xiluo and Qin Huaiyi were known to her. There was another one whom she had just seen in the inner court but did not recognize. She looked to be of similar age to Qin Huaiyi and seemed closer to him. When they came in front of her, Rongyue stopped talking.
"Yuyan, long time no see." Qin Huaiyi looked at Li Yuyan.
Yuyan stood up and said, "Yes, Sister Xiaoyi, how long have you been back? What have you been busy with?"
Qin Huaiyi smiled and looked at Rongyue. "Nothing..."
The girl standing next to Qin Huaiyi and holding Qin Huaiyi's arm looked at Li Yuyan and said, "She! Ha! What else can she be busy with! She is busy pestering her sweetheart! Her brother Mo Chen, whom she has been talking about for who knows how many years!" After the girl said this, she glanced at Rongyue, and her eyes were not really friendly.
"Jingyi, don't talk nonsense." Qin Huaiyi patted the girl who was talking, and then glanced at Rongyue.
"I can testify to this. Ever since she came back, Mo Chen has not been idle for a single day. He has been accompanying her." Xia Xiluo smiled.
Rongyue listened to their conversation and understood. So that was the reason. No wonder Mo Chen hadn't been like before in the past half month. Rongyue thought it was because she hadn't visited him in the hospital and hadn't even sent him a greeting message, which made him feel cold. Or maybe Grandpa had talked to Mo Chen...
But it’s okay now. The relationship between them is really like what she originally imagined. The two of them are in contact because of the children. Rongyue couldn’t help but look up and take a closer look at Qin Huaiyi. He and Mo Chen are indeed a good match.
"Brother Mo Chen? His child is so grown up! Are you still thinking about him? Besides..." Yuyan hesitated and looked at Rongyue.
The woman holding Qin Huaiyi's arm looked at Yuyan and said, "What's wrong with having a child? As long as he's single, that's fine! If Xiaoyi doesn't want to have a child, then someone else will do the childbearing for her! Just take good care of her! If she wants to have a child, that's even easier. Xiaoyi is so young, there's no telling how many children they'll have!"
Xia Xiluo looked at Rongyue, she smiled and patted Rongyue, "Come on, Rongyue, you don't know Xiaoyi and Jingyi yet, I'll introduce them to you."
Rongyue had originally lowered her head and was planning to pretend that she heard nothing, but after Xia Xiluo did this, she had no choice but to stand up and greet these people.
Rongyue stood up and looked at Qin Huaiyi and Jingyi.
"This is Qin Huaiyi. Grandpa Qin and Grandpa Gong Yi are close friends. They have a very good relationship. If Xiaoyi hadn't gone abroad so early, the four of us would have grown up together!"
"This is Feng Jingyi. This girl is best friends with Xiaoyi. The two sisters are always inseparable."
Xia Xiluo turned to Rongyue and said, "This is Nangong Rongyue."
"Sister Rongyue, we have met." Qin Huaiyi looked at Rongyue.
Rongyue smiled and nodded, "Yes."
"That day, I thought you were Brother Li Xin's girlfriend, but it turns out you are..." Qin Huaiyi hesitated to speak.
"There's nothing wrong with saying this. Your brother Mo Chen and sister Rong Yue have been separated for a long time, and they are friends now. You don't have to avoid talking to Rong Yue." Xia Xiluo looked at Qin Huaiyi.
"Is that so?" Qin Huaiyi's eyes lit up and he looked at Rongyue, then seemed to feel that such a reaction was a little inappropriate.
"Yeah." Rongyue nodded and smiled at Qin Huaiyi.
"Your last name is Nangong? Are you from the Nangong family?" Feng Jingyi looked at Rongyue. "The Nangong family has been in decline for many years. Where have all the people gone? Why haven't I seen anyone from the Nangong family except you?"
