On January 25, the weather was fine.

The engagement banquet between Ling Shuo and Yan Zu'er only invited relatives and friends of both parties, only about [-] people, and a few tables were held at the main house of Ling's family.

Originally, the parents of both parties wanted to make a fuss, but Ling Shuo said that it would be better to keep it simple, and then the marriage would be more lively, and Yan Zuer agreed.At that time, Yan's father and Yan's mother even joked that their daughter turned to Ling Shuo before entering the door, and Yan Zu'er was so ashamed that she was speechless.

During the entire engagement banquet, the parents of both parties were the happiest; Yan Zuer was the most beautiful; Ling Shuo was the calmest; Ling Xiuyang was the most depressing, because he was read again, who told him that he was in his thirties They're not married yet, and their nieces are almost married, and now their only nephew is getting engaged, so it's no wonder they don't get read.

Careful Ling Xiuyang found that Ling Shuo was too calm, no matter on his face or eyes, he didn't have the beaming look of an engaged protagonist, as if he was just doing a routine business.

Holding a glass of wine in one hand, Ling Xiuyang pulled Ling Shuo away from Yan Zuer's side with the other, went to sit in the corridor of the atrium, and said firmly, "Xiao Shuo, you have something on your mind."

Ling Shuo gave Ling Xiuyang a flat look, and said, "Fourth Uncle, you just told me this after you pulled me out?"

"I see confusion in your eyes, and a kind of rejection of this engagement banquet." Ling Xiuyang said sharply.

"Fourth Uncle, are you deluded by the prosecutor? I agreed to this engagement banquet myself, and I have a crush on Zuer, so I am neither confused nor repelled."

Ling Xiuyang stared fixedly at Ling Shuo's deep blue eyes, shook his head, and said, "Perhaps this is not the right time, but, Xiao Shuo, do you really want a woman who only has good feelings to be your lifelong partner?" wife?"

"You can make love for a long time. Also, fourth uncle, what exactly do you want to say?" Ling Shuo's voice was impatient, because out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Yan Zuer find it from the inside, but fortunately, his three friends did not move him. He stopped sensibly.

Of course Ling Xiuyang also saw it, took a sip of his wine slowly, and said, "I just don't want Xiao Shuo to be in trouble in the future, and the engagement ceremony hasn't been officially announced yet, and you haven't exchanged engagement rings yet."

"Fourth Uncle, Zu'er is worthy to be my wife no matter in terms of appearance, character, character, and family background. Even if I don't love her now, who knows what will happen in the future." Ling Shuo was really confused. Knowing what his fourth uncle meant when he asked him to come out and say this strange thing, maybe fourth uncle was drunk and talking nonsense.

Ling Xiuyang patted Ling Shuo's shoulder, sighed softly, and said, "Hey, such a smart person, why can't he see his own heart clearly?" After speaking, he turned and walked back to the hall full of laughter.

Ling Shuo was left standing in the corridor in a daze after hearing this unclear remark.

The phone rang suddenly, and Ling Shuo wondered for a second what the sound was, only to realize that it was his phone that rang.

Ling Shuo looked at the phone number on the screen, it was Gu Yu's.

Then, Ling Shuo thought of the phone call three days ago. At that time, he thought it was Gu Yu's call, but he didn't know that it was the voice of Gu Yu's mother who answered the call. He still hasn't understood the words, that's why fourth uncle said that he saw confusion in his eyes.

He remembered her saying: "Ling Shuo, it's great for Yu'er to know you, and please care about him in the future, so I'm here to say thank you."

It was a very short sentence, like confessing something to him, but it felt like it was just thanking him.

Now, it is the number that Gu Yu dialed on his own initiative. Could it be Gu Yu's mother again?

Ling Shuo pressed the call button with a puzzled heart.

There was a shallow breathing sound on the other end of the phone, he didn't know if it was hesitation or something, but after ten seconds, before his patience ran out, he spoke over there.

"Ling... Ling Shuo, I want to borrow some money from you."

As soon as Ling Shuo heard the cautious voice, he knew it was Gu Yu himself.

"Just take the card I gave you, don't ask me."

There was a pause for a few more seconds, Ling Shuo could imagine Gu Yu biting his lip lightly.

"...I...I, I don't know how to use it."

"So stupid!" Ling Shuo could only find the word to say Gu Yu.

In order not to wait a few seconds, Ling Shuo took the initiative to ask, "What do you want money for? How much?"

However, there was still silence.

Ling Shuo thought that if he had to wait for 15 seconds, it would be time for him to answer, but the answer was that he hung up the phone, and a busy tone of disconnection came into his ears.

Ling Shuo felt that with Gu Yu's character, he would never call him to borrow money for no reason, unless his mother's illness required hospitalization or something.

Thinking back now, Gu Yu's mother's words must have a deeper meaning that he didn't understand; besides being cautious, there were other emotions mixed in Gu Yu's stuttering words just now, but what kind of emotion?Ling Shuo couldn't think of it and couldn't figure it out.

Yes, Ling Shuo would never have thought of it, because Gu Yu's voice was filled with bottomless sadness and fragility beneath his strength.

Ling Shuo was very dissatisfied with this emotion that was out of his control, but damn it, he cared about Gu Yu's phone call that Mo Ming cut off, and he was actually very worried about Gu Yu.

But he couldn't go away at the moment, because he was going to be engaged to his future wife.

When he took a few steps in the direction of the hall, he took a deep look into the hall, frowned, turned and walked in the direction of the garage.

-

Regarding Ling Shuo's behavior of leaving after answering a phone call, Ling Xiuyang saw it, and Ren and the three of them also saw it, but they didn't say anything. The first reason was that they didn't know who the phone call was from; For Ling Shuo's own affairs, they are just family and friends, and they cannot make decisions on Ling Shuo's behalf. Since Ling Shuo turned around, it means that he has considered the consequences.

In fact, Yan Zuer also saw it, saw the eagerness in Ling Shuo's back as he turned to leave, she hypnotized herself, Ling Shuo might just drink too much and go to the bathroom to wash his face.

When the time came, it was time to exchange engagement rings in front of the elders of both parties, but Yan Zuer was the only one standing in front surrounded by her friends.

At that moment, Yan Zuer's mind went blank for a moment, she couldn't tell what kind of mood she was in, it was too complicated, she seemed to remember a few nights ago, she and Ling Shuo were only one step away from marrying each other Ling Shuo went back to her room silently, and she was so embarrassed that she was left alone in the room that she wanted to die.If it's not about not doing it, as long as a man sees a woman lying naked in front of him, he won't be unmoved; another possibility is that a man unconsciously guards his body or even his heart for someone.

Yan Zuer's delicately made-up face showed the burning pain and irritation of being slapped in public, and the resentment of being left behind...and also seemed to be grateful that this was not a wedding ceremony, and that there were no outsiders present .

After waiting for a while, the leading actor Ling Shuo who was supposed to appear still did not appear, and even the phone call could not be reached.

Yan's father and Yan's mother immediately lowered their faces, and Yan's father put the wine glass heavily on the table, causing the entire table to tremble, and said with a dark face, "What's going on?" Then, he looked at The Ling family.

Except for Ling Xiuyang and Ren, the rest of the Ling family didn't know why Ling Shuo disappeared.

Ling Xizhao put on a majestic face, and his sharp eyes patrolled the hall for a week, then fell on Ling Xiuyang, and said, "This is too outrageous. Xiuyang, tell me, where did Xiao Shuo go?"

Against everyone's dissatisfied eyes, Ling Xiuyang said calmly, "Father, how could I know?"

"Hmph, Xiao Shuo obviously went out with you for a while and didn't come back. If you hadn't said something to him, how could he not see anyone, and now he can't even get through the phone?"

"Father, I really didn't say anything. I just asked him what he thinks about getting engaged so early. Who told me that I am still single now, so I just wanted to ask him how he feels, so that I can find someone myself." Ling Xiuyang half-truth and half-truth Hypothetically speaking, this will make it easier to believe.

Ling Xizhao stared sharply: "Did you really say anything else?"

"No!" Ling Xiuyang said with a swearing expression.

At this time, Mother Yan said in a nonchalant way: "It doesn't matter what the reason is. It is Ling Shuo's fault that he left my grandfather behind at such an important moment! Although our Yan family is not as good as you The Ling family is also a famous family. No matter what, your Ling family wanted our daughter to come in. It's a good thing now, you disappeared without saying a word. It's easy to bully us when we are the Yan family, and we still think that our grandfather can't get married. ?! I am a woman and a mother. My daughter was left behind at the engagement ceremony. I am not so magnanimous. If this is a wedding ceremony, I don’t know how it will be laughed at! Forget it, this door Marriage seems to be something our Yan family can't reach."

As she spoke, Mother Yan stood up with her handbag in her arms, and called to the crying daughter who was comforted by her friend in a low voice, "Let's go home, Zuer."

Yan Zu'er glanced at the door of the hall, moved to Mother Yan's side, and threw herself into Mother Yan's arms. She didn't make a sound, but her shoulders trembled slightly to let people know that Ling Shuo's absence hurt the girl. child's heart.

No one expected that the festive and lively engagement wedding would turn out like this.

Ling Xizhao was so angry that Uncle Lou helped him back to his room. The remaining male family members of the Ling family were not good at talking, so only a few Ling family sisters smiled and comforted the Yan family to wait, saying that Ling Shuo might I have something urgent to do...

How could Yan's father and Yan's mother listen to it, and she took Yan Zu'er and Yan's relatives and friends away in a "crash".
