Rebirth of the ugly girl

Chapter 239 The Secret of Engagement

The car arrived at the hotel where the engagement banquet was held before 11:30.

The car stopped, Xi Wei got out of the car first, the reporter who had been waiting outside for a long time rushed over like someone who had been hungry for a long time and suddenly saw meat, but was stopped by the security guard.

Xi Wei stood in front of the car, but he didn't rush to leave, but stretched his hand into the car.

Shen Ting took a deep breath, put his hand on Xi Wei's, and slowly got out of the car.

Amazement flashed in Xi Wei's eyes, so this change is this?There is a saying that calls beauty to the bone but not the skin. He didn't understand what it meant before, but today he finally understands it.

As soon as she got out of the car and came into contact with the sunlight, Shen Ting closed her eyes. Just as she got used to opening her eyes, she was forced to close them again by a burst of flashing lights.

Xi Wei noticed her slight expression, stretched out his palm to cover her eyes, and while leading her to walk forward, told the assistant beside him: "Tell them to turn off the flashlight."

The assistant nodded, walked in front of them, and said to a group of reporters in front of them with a smile: "I don't stop everyone from taking pictures, but please turn off the flash, it's not good for your eyes."

The sound of the shutter is still heard, but the dazzling light finally disappeared. Shen Ting was led by Xi Wei, and the two walked in the wall formed by security. What did Shen Ting think of, and asked Xi Wei in a low voice: "It really doesn't matter ?"

"What?" Xi Wei's thoughts were still lingering on her exposed large smooth and white back.

"Is it really okay for me to be your female companion?" Xi Wei is in the upswing of his career. It would be a crime for her to write an article against him as a gimmick.

"No problem." Xi Wei showed Shen Ting's familiar smile again, casually, playfully smiling, very unscrupulous, "As long as I tell the outside, you are the girlfriend I am dating."

Shen Ting paused, and anger flew on his face, "I'm not joking with you."

"Hmm." Xi Wei nodded to express his understanding, he was considering whether to turn this joke into reality.

"Okay, we're inside, now your words and deeds are being watched, don't frown." As soon as Xi Wei entered, his demeanor changed suddenly, from a handsome man with casual behavior to A polite gentleman.

Under his influence, Shen Ting relaxed her brows, took his arm, held her head high, stepped on high heels, and walked into this world that did not belong to her.

Shen Ting still remembered the last time Lu Yihe's sister got married. Compared with the last time, this time it was obviously more luxurious and grand.

They came quite late, and many men and women in Chinese costumes crowded together to say hello.

Shen Ting is still calm, at least calmer than last time.

She thought that her heartbeat would speed up and her legs would be weak when she came to this kind of occasion, but in fact, she didn't know whether it was thanks to the expensive outfit on her body or something else, she held the handbag in one hand, and walked through the door behind her with the other. The waiter held a glass of charming champagne in his hand, and took a sip gracefully.

She was so comfortable here that she didn't feel that she was out of place.

Xi Wei saw an acquaintance, probably a highly respected director, and was called to speak together.

Shen Ting took a glass of wine, found a place to sit down, held the glass, opened her eyes and looked at the luxurious and rich people in front of her, trying to find the person she wanted to see from the middle.

She looked at it for a while, and suddenly felt that this was ridiculous. As the host of the engagement banquet, Lu Yihe would definitely not appear in front of everyone easily. He might help her arrange the wedding dress in front of his fiancée, anyway. may appear before her.

Lu Yihe was on the phone to check whether old man Lu was staying in the hospital well. The old man had been clamoring for the past few days to come and see the engagement scene, but it was useless to persuade him.

In the end, Lu Yihe went out in person and talked with the old man for a long time before the old man agreed to stay in the hospital and take good care of his body.

Things were beyond his expectation, the nurse just went to the toilet, and the old man disappeared.

Lu Yihe hung up the phone, frowning. According to the old man's current physical condition, it is impossible to leave the hospital so easily. Someone must help him. Who could it be?

A rush of phone calls interrupted his thoughts, Lu Yihe picked up the phone, grandma?She's calling now...

As soon as the button was pressed, Zhou Jin's voice over there was mixed with uncontrollable anger, "The one who took your grandfather away was from the Gong family. If something happens to him, I will definitely throw off the engagement banquet."

Listening to Zhou Jin's deep breathing over there, Lu Yihe took a deep breath to calm himself down, "Grandma, please don't get excited, I'll go downstairs to pick up Grandpa now, and make sure he's safe and well."

He didn't say anything, just hung up the phone.

Lu Yihe felt his head swell and hurt, and the events that happened for a week almost drained his energy. Only then did he feel that he was not as omnipotent as he imagined.

He didn't expect his grandfather's health to be so poor. The old man is strong. Every time he goes home, he coughs twice in front of him at most, and never asks him about his health.

Lu Yihe always thought that grandpa was an ordinary old man who coughed, but he didn't know that the old man had advanced lung cancer until his doctor in charge asked to talk to him.

When he heard the news, he felt that the sky was falling, and he almost collapsed, but everything with the word cancer was tricky, and if it was late, it was hopeless.

The old man also knew that he didn't have much time, so he asked him to promise one thing and marry Gong Chu.

The words of Lu Yihe's refusal were already on the verge of his mouth, and he only said the word "I". Looking at the old man's ashen face, he swallowed the word "no" abruptly. That feeling really broke his teeth, and said The blood was swallowed in his stomach, and there was nothing to say, because he was his grandfather, the only close relative of flesh and blood in this world.

Lu Yihe didn't know how he survived the past few days, laughing in front of the old man like a walking dead, playing with Gong Chu to make the old man happy, but in the middle of the night, he touched his phone and watched Shen Ting call phone call, so distressed that they got tangled together.

He could imagine how anxious Shen Ting was, how helpless she was when she saw the overwhelming news, and how helpless she was in the face of others' ridicule.

He couldn't hold back the urge to answer her phone until his palms were bleeding. This is a critical moment, he can't show a little bit of caring about her, lest the old man suspect that his interaction with Gong Chu is fake, and he still likes that " A scheming woman who covets his power."

What he has to do now is to wait, to accompany the old man through the last part of his life, and wait for the old man to leave in peace.

Only then can he explain to Shen Ting, during this period, he can only ignore the string of calls in his mobile phone, and ignore her on the other end of the phone.

I can only wrong her.
