Lin Yu didn't rush to theorize with Meng Zhen. After all, today is the grandfather's birthday banquet. The face of the Lin Group is more than anything else. If it is because of Meng Zhen's troubles, everyone will definitely be ridiculed.
Turning this thought in his heart, Lin Yu's expression became more and more cold, and he strode to Xu Xueruo's side, stretched out his hand to straighten the diamond crown on the girl's head, and said in a pampered tone: "Xue Ruo, when the next master of ceremonies will invite you to play Play "Vanessa's Smile", don't panic, I will always look at you from below."
Xu Xueruo's delicate face deliberately showed a touch of emotion. She blinked and said softly: "I know that Ayu is the best to me. I will work hard and not let down those who care about me and love me."
Lin Yu and Xu Xueruo are childhood sweethearts and they grew up together. He knew how weak Xueruo's physique was. Once she was still in school and suddenly fainted in the middle of class. Fortunately, the teacher called the emergency number in time, and Xueruo kept it. A life.
She lives hard and treats the people around her. Such a kind and gentle girl is completely different from the scheming woman like Meng Zhen. She must protect Xueruo so as not to get hurt.
Meng Zhen slowly drank a glass of wine, looking around the banquet hall with slightly reddish apricot eyes for a week.
According to her dream, the surname Gu, who controls the lifeline of China's economy, rarely appears in the public eye. If it weren't for the personal friendship with Old Man Lin, he would never appear at the birthday banquet.
She watched for a long time, and finally saw the old man, he was wearing a plain gray coat, sitting on a chair with a big horse and talking with Old Man Lin beside him.
Many people rushed to show their courtesy with the two old men, but they didn't pay much attention to those juniors, drinking and talking on their own.
Even so, the number of people rushing in front of them still only increased.
Meng Zhen didn't plan to join in the fun, she chose a position with the clearest vision, and sitting here just happened to be able to capture everything on the stage completely.
Xu Xueruo looked at Meng Zhen from a distance, and her heart seemed to be pierced hard by an invisible thorn, and the feeling of jealousy was really uncomfortable.
She walked quickly to Meng Zhen, pretending to be ashamed: "Zhen Zhen, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Mom and Dad would have recognized your identity a long time ago, and they won't keep on dragging this matter. You are the daughter of the Xu family. You should have come on stage to celebrate Grandpa Lin's birthday. Alas, I'm really sorry."
Meng Zhen raised her eyebrows, staring at Xu Xueruo with bright apricot eyes, and she could see through her ostentatious thoughts at a glance.
Yan Hong’s lips twitched slightly, and Meng Zhen suddenly took a step forward. She was a few centimeters taller than Xu Xueruo. At this moment, she bent over her ear and said in a low voice, “I’ve read the post in the attached high school, and I’m going to let my dad Mom, take a look too."
Meng Zhen knew a long time ago that Xu Xueruo’s psychological quality was not good. When she was only said a few words by her classmates on weekdays, she would burst into tears and try to save her reputation. After all, in Xu Xueruo’s view, she was The true daughter of the Xu family must conform to her status in every move and she must not lose her face.
At this moment, hearing Meng Zhen's words, the expression on Xu Xueruo's face suddenly froze, and she backed back again and again, so she didn't make a sound.
The post Xu Xueruo in the attached middle school could not be clearer. It was full of attacks on Meng Zhen, calling her an illegitimate daughter, calling her an illiterate vase, these are not important, the most important thing is that there are screenshots of her own Weibo in the post. Once they are seen by their parents, they will find how much they hate Meng Zhen.
Do not! not like this!
Xu Xueruo clenched Meng Zhen's arm tightly, just about to say something, just at this moment, the host invited Xu Xueruo to come on stage.
"Next, I invite Miss Xu Xueruo from the Xu Group to perform "Vanessa's Smile" to congratulate Mr. Lin!"
Hearing the sound, everyone cast their eyes on Xu Xueruo. Xu Xueruo had no choice but to let go of Meng Zhen's hand and gritted his teeth and walked forward.
The slender girl in a pink and white dress walked onto the stage step by step, perhaps because of her tension, her cheeks were red as blood, and her whole body was constantly trembling.
Xu Xueruo's heart was beating, and her head was filled with chaotic and unprovoked thoughts. Did Meng Zhen lie? Will she really take the post to mom and dad? The more Xu Xueruo thinks about it, the more she can't help but focus her attention on Meng Zhen, and she has no time to assign her thoughts to the piano in front of her.
In the past, Xu Xueruo had also participated in piano competitions held in the attached high school, but those were children's little jokes, and there would never be so many big people appearing.
She tried her best to suppress the panic in her heart, held her breath and sat in front of the piano, her fingertips trembling slightly, and began to play.
The pouring notes sounded quietly in the banquet hall, and the music was joyful and agile. In all fairness, Xu Xueruo's piano level is really good. She has already passed the tenth grade in the first year of high school. Even if she is not as good as a professional, she can do it well.
Unfortunately, the few elders Xu Xueruo wanted to please are standing at the top of China’s power. I don’t know how many amazing pianists have been seen in the past few years. Xu Xueruo’s amateur level is still not in their eyes. "Nissa's Smile" is also full of good wishes, but after all, it is not Xu Xueruo's own composition, and it is not worth the extra effort.
Old Gu glanced at Xu Xueruo on the stage, smiled and said to Old Man Lin: "If I remember correctly, this little girl seems to have a good relationship with your family Lin Yu."
"What happened to the children's house should not be taken seriously." Old Man Lin glanced at the stage, then averted his gaze, his tone was plain and idiomatic.
Perceiving the attitude of the old friend, Mr. Gu raised his eyebrows and didn't say much.
When playing the piano, Xu Xueruo secretly warned herself that she must not make mistakes, but she always couldn't control her sight and glanced at Meng Zhen from time to time.
Seeing that woman walked up to her parents and took out her mobile phone, she didn’t know what she said. Xu Xueruo played several wrong notes. Her heart trembled, and she felt that her skin was burning hot. The more anxious she was, the more mistakes she made. The song "Vanessa's Smile" made her stumble. Even if some people wanted to flatter the Xu Group, they couldn't speak without conscience at this moment.
After playing a song, Xu Xueruo's eyes turned red for three minutes, and a layer of fine sweat leaked from her forehead, which melted with the foundation, looking extremely embarrassed.
Lin Yu had been standing near the steps waiting for Xu Xueruo. He thought he could see his beloved girl shine. Who knew that Xu Xueruo was so ugly, he was so embarrassed that he could only bite the bullet and grab Xu Xueruo's wrist , To bring people to grandfather.
"Grandpa, this is Xueruo, who came to our house as a child."
The old man Lin responded indifferently. He remembered this little girl. Back then, Xu Xueruo followed A Yu to Lin's house and broke an antique vase. She was afraid of being scolded. When the master came to ask, she pretended not to know. Love, as if she had never touched that vase.
At that time, Old Man Lin could see clearly when he was standing upstairs, but he didn't dismantle Xu Xueruo in consideration of the face of the Xu family.
At that time, she was only eight or nine years old and was full of lies, but Ayu didn't know what demon she was. She had been protecting Xu Xueruo since she was a child, and couldn't bear to make her suffer the slightest grievance.
At the moment she plays a good song like this, how does it seem to come to celebrate her birthday? With a little care, you won't fall into this situation.
Thinking of this, Old Man Lin only felt a terrible headache, and his good mood for the longevity was also destroyed. Fortunately, Lin Yu saw that his grandfather's face was not worried, and he didn't dare to let Xu Xueruo be an eyesore nearby, so he said a few words. Left immediately.
Xu Xueruo was upset at first. Lin Yu took her to the flower room. She raised her eyebrows and asked with some doubts: "Ayu, didn't we talk about it before? We want to introduce me to Grandpa Lin, why did she come out directly?"
Lin Yu apologized: "Grandpa's emotions didn't seem right just now. I was afraid to make his elders angry, so I took you out. When I have a chance next time, I will introduce you to the elders in the family, okay?"
To be honest, Xu Xueruo didn’t have much interest in Lin Yu. What she really wanted to cling to was Gu Ting, the only heir to the Gu family, but it’s a pity that Gu Ting, as the actor, rarely appeared at banquets in the capital. She wanted to see him all the time. It's difficult, let alone in-depth contact with him.
Under this circumstance, Xu Xueruo had to hold Lin Yu tightly so as not to fetch the bamboo basket.
"I knew A Yu was the best." Xu Xueruo pursed her lips and smiled, hugging Lin Yu's arm, her expression full of dependence, with red eye circles, it looks a bit pitiful.
Xu Xueruo's thoughts were all on Meng Zhen. She was afraid that the matter of the post would be exposed. After perfunctory Lin Yu, she found a reason to return to the Xu family's husband and wife.
At this moment, Xu Youheng suffocated his stomach. He has always been a face-saving person, but he never thought that the adopted daughter would lose such a big face in front of all the partners. It’s not good for Erhu to even play the piano. Strange?
"Birthday is over, let's go back." Xu Youheng's tone was cold.
The group drove away from Lin's house and just returned to the villa. Xu Youheng could no longer hold back his anger, stared at Xu Xueruo, and scolded: "Didn't you say that you are fully prepared? That intermittent song is you The result of many days of practice?"
Since she was young, Xu Xueruo has been held in the palm of the Xu family because of her frailty. She has never been scolded. She looked at her father's hideous and distorted face, two lines of tears involuntarily flowed down, choked with excuses: "Dad, I have indeed practiced the song "Vanessa's Smile" many times. I shouldn't have made a mistake, but Meng Zhen scared me before he took the stage. I was uneasy and played abnormally..."
Xu Ruixi has always felt sorry for Xu Xueruo, so she exploded and scolded: "Meng Zhen, are you mentally ill? Where did Xueruo offend you? Are you trying to harm her like this? You want to drag the entire Xu family into the water?"
