Everyone sat and chatted in the living room for a while, mainly with He Jiarui and Yuan Zheng as the protagonists, chatting and laughing very lively.

Neither of the two protagonists spoke, their expressions were still a little stiff, and they sat there in utter embarrassment.

Fortunately, the butler said dinner was ready and asked everyone to go to the restaurant.

It can be seen that Mr. He and his granddaughter are here tonight. Mr. Yuan is very happy. Not only is the marriage relationship between the two families, but He Jinnan also helped the Yuan family when they were in trouble. Mr. Yuan will keep this sentiment in his heart. .

"Old man He, I want to say that your vision is not as good as mine. Do you admit it?" After a few glasses of wine, Mr. Yuan began to have a heart-to-heart talk with his good buddy.

Mr. He smiled, "I think you are completely conquered by our second boy."

"That kid from Jinnan, I've been optimistic about him since he was a child. As for you, you have always been thinking about the boss. Look, are you slapped in the face now?" Mr. Yuan spoke upright, and he didn't care whether Mr. He was happy or not.

He Jiarui was eating and looked up at her grandfather.

Mr. He was not angry at all, he just nodded with emotion and said, "Well, now that I see it, our second boy is capable, so I won't accept it."

"Don't tell me, our A-Zheng has been with Jinnan for more than a year, but he has learned a lot. Jinnan Renyi, it can be said that he taught his future brother-in-law heartily. A-Zheng and I After saying that, I was moved.”

Mr. Yuan was humorous. After speaking, he picked up the tissue at hand and pretended to wipe his tears.

Mr. He smiled and looked at Yuan Zheng, "It will be good for you to learn from your second brother."

He Jiarui gnawed on the short ribs and murmured in her heart: It's okay to learn how to do business from your second brother, but don't learn his dirty tricks, as you can easily be led astray.

Yuan Zheng said: "Yes, Grandpa, I will definitely learn from my second brother."

Mr. Yuan said at this time: "Azheng, pick up some vegetables for Ruirui. Don't you know what Ruirui likes to eat? Take good care of her."

He Jiarui swallowed the short ribs in his mouth and said with a smile: "Grandpa Yuan, A Zheng gave me a lot of food. Isn't that why I just keep eating hard."

"Hahaha!" Mr. Yuan laughed and said, "This little girl has changed a lot since she grew up. Old man He, do you still remember that when your fourth lady came to my house, her little face would be tense? It's like someone owes her millions."

When the embarrassing things from childhood were mentioned, everyone burst into laughter. He Jiarui had a smile on his face and felt like he could dig out three bedrooms and one living room with his toes.

Yuan Zheng didn't smile. He stretched out his chopsticks and gave her her favorite sweet and sour pork ribs.

After dinner, everyone went to the living room to drink tea and chat.

Mr. Yuan said to Yuan Zheng and He Jiarui: "You two, go and do what you are supposed to do. What's the point of listening to us old guys chatting? Go, go, go!"

He Jiarui's face turned slightly red and she glanced at her grandfather.

Mr. He also echoed: "Go ahead."

Yuan Zheng took He Jiarui to the living room on the second floor and brought her juice and snacks.

The two of them were sitting on the same sofa, both looking down at their phones.

Fu Chengyu still didn't reply to her message, and she felt extremely disappointed.

"Are you really not considering my proposal anymore?" Suddenly, Yuan Zheng asked.

He Jiarui looked up at him and saw that he was still fiddling with his phone with his head down, as if he was just asking a casual question.

"I won't consider it anymore. I'm not a heartless person." He Jiarui also lowered his head to look at his phone and said.

After a while, Yuan Zheng said: "I heard that Mr. Fu was injured."

"What?" He Jiarui was so frightened by his words that he dropped his phone on the ground, "How did you know? Where was the injury?"

Yuan Zheng shrugged his shoulders, shook his head and said, "How do I know? I heard about it."

Countless thoughts flashed through He Jiarui's mind instantly, each one was bad, and each one made her break into a cold sweat.

She had no intention of hiding it anymore, and hurriedly sat down next to Yuan Zheng and asked, "Who did you listen to? Is the news reliable?"

Yuan Zheng turned to look at her, and was stung by the anxious look in her eyes. He immediately looked away and said, "A friend in the imperial capital, he just said it casually. I don't know whether it is reliable or not."

He Jiarui was absent-minded for a moment. After hesitating, he asked, "Are you going to the imperial capital the day after tomorrow?"

"What are you doing? You want me to leave tomorrow?" Yuan Zheng asked teasingly.

He Jiarui pursed her lips and said, "No. Then... if I go with you, my grandpa's place..."

"I will naturally handle it." Yuan Zheng asked, "Decided to go with me? Are you worried about him?"

He Jiarui nodded honestly and said nothing.

Yuan Zheng put his hands on the armrest of the sofa and looked at her sideways, his eyes dark and unclear, and he didn't speak.

He Jiarui felt guilty when he saw him. He felt that he and his second brother had been together for a long time, so why were his eyes staring at him more and more? It makes people feel a little nervous.

"Ruirui," he finally spoke, calling her in a calm voice, "What do you like about Fu Chengyu?"

He Jiarui thought he would scold her angrily, but she didn't expect that he suddenly asked this question, which made her stunned.

"Are you sure you want to hear it?" she asked.

Yuan Zheng took out the cigarette case from his pocket, took out one, and lit it, "I want to hear that there must be something extraordinary about a person who makes you miss him." After he finished speaking, he took a puff of the cigarette and lit it up. His deep eyes were obscured.

After hearing this, He Jiarui really thought about it for a while and realized that she couldn't seem to tell what exactly she liked about Fu Chengyu. Excellent external conditions were inevitable, but what moved her heart was him and her feelings for him.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Yuan Zheng flicked the ashes from his cigarette and said, "Forget it, if you don't want to say it, don't say it."

"Wait for me at home the day after tomorrow. I'll pick you up." After saying that, he got up and walked upstairs, leaving He Jiarui alone.

Even though Yuan Zheng was walking gracefully, only he knew and could feel the pain in his heart like needles.

He Jiarui watched his straight-backed figure disappear behind the corner of the stairs. He weakly leaned against the sofa and murmured, "I'm so tired."

She looked at her phone and saw that Fu Chengyu still hadn't responded to the message. The resentment in her heart had long since disappeared, replaced by worry.

She called Jiang Yining, and the call was quickly answered. I asked Fu Chengyu about it in a roundabout way, and the result was that he was really injured, but it was not an external injury, but an internal injury. He worked too hard at the dinner and suffered stomach bleeding from drinking.

"He didn't reply to you. Maybe his phone was on silent. If you have something to worry about and come to him in a hurry, I'll have someone ask you." Jiang Yining said.

Why did He Jiarui have the nerve to trouble her? She asked about his hospitalization status, thanked him, and hung up the phone.

Stomach bleeding...How much alcohol did he drink? He Jiarui was heartbroken.
