Chapter 16 I'm going down, but I'm kicking your lifeblood.
"You said it's a family matter, it's a family matter? Does Xu Ying agree?" Ji Lan held his wrist and didn't mean to let go.
Xu Qian chuckled: "You are an adopted daughter who is about to be kicked out. Maybe not long after, the Ji family will kick you out, and you won't even be able to reach our circle."
After saying this, he raised his hand to throw Ji Lan away.
But Ji Lan held him tighter, and the fingertips holding his wrist pressed hard on the meridians of his wrist, making his wrist feel vaguely numb.
Ji Lan stared at him and warned every word: "Let go."
"What if I don't?" Xu Qian said in a bad tone.
"Mr. Xu, try it." Ji Lan let go of his wrist and walked to the door to block the box door.
Xu Qian is a well-known libertine in the circle. The young ladies in Beijing and Hong Kong clubs, as long as they are a little bit pretty, are often swayed by him. In the past, they were praised highly, but today they were suddenly provoked, and they were somewhat embarrassed. .
"Who do you really think you are?" He walked over and stretched out his hand to grab Ji Lan.
The latter turned slightly to dodge, grabbed his arm and kicked him in the abdomen.
Ouch——Xu Qian covered his stomach and bent slightly and screamed. He raised his eyes and stared at her fiercely, as if he wanted to kill her: "Damn it."
"Xu Qian, if I go down a little further, I'll kick you to death," Ji Lan reminded him coldly.
"Sister, Mr. Xu is the same after all."
"Is it your turn to speak?" Xu Ying stood aside and rubbed her wrist. Hearing Ji Rourou's delicate voice, she turned around and said something in anger.
"My older sister is younger than my younger sister. You don't care about my elder sister when she is bullied, and she also makes sarcastic remarks. Isn't there no one in the village to teach you the rules?" Xu Ying has tolerated her for a long time. It stands to reason that she should come back as soon as she comes back. After all, Deng Yi is her biological mother. , There is nothing wrong with kissing your daughter and your own mother.
She was angry because it was Deng Yi who took Ji Lan back in order to hide her from others, but in the end, it was her fault.
This mother and daughter are more inhumane than the other.
Ji Rourou was yelled at and looked at Xu Ying cautiously: "I didn't."
"Why are you pretending to be Biluochun?" Xu Ying said impatiently.
The atmosphere gradually became tense, and someone came out to smooth things over: "It's Yanzhuang's birthday today, everyone, please calm down and don't make your face look bad."
Xu Ying glanced at the person: "You do know how to behave."
Some people in the crowd couldn't stand Ji Rourou's appearance of being a villain: "Miss Ji, just become a member. You don't want to be kicked out, right?"
Ji Rourou was a little hesitant. It was not that she had never heard of the name of the Beijing-Hong Kong Club. She wanted to be a member here. The problem was that with the large expenditure, Deng Yi would inevitably ask about the purpose.
In the past few days since Ji Lan moved out, the atmosphere at home has been bad.
She didn't want to cause trouble again.
"Sister will definitely be unhappy if I'm here. When Yanzhuang comes, I'll give him the gift and leave."
Xu Ying rolled his eyes.
Pretending to be thirteen.
Not long after, the banquet arrived late. When he opened the door and came in, he saw Xu Qian curled up on the sofa, holding his stomach, glaring at Ji Lan like a ferocious beast, wanting to twitch and skin her.
"A car hit someone on the road, so I'm late," Yanzhuang explained, his eyes falling on Ji Lan: "Lan Lan."
"Yanzhuang, happy birthday," Ji Rourou saw someone coming and hurriedly handed over the gift. The blue velvet gift box looked high-end and valuable.
Ji Lan's eyes narrowed a little when she saw the box. Why does this box look so familiar?
Yanzhuang glanced at the brocade box Ji Rourou handed over, and was a little reluctant to accept it, but after all, the two families were family friends, and Ji Rourou was the biological daughter found at home.
After hesitating for a while, he stretched out his hand: "Thank you Rourou."
"Wait a minute," Xu Ying came over and took the brocade box from Yanzhuang's hand: "It looks valuable. What is it?"
"Watch," Jirou said.
"One? Which brand is it?" Xu Ying looked at the box with no intention of opening it.
"How many more watches are there?" Ji Rourou said impatiently.
"That's right," Xu Ying was retorted and showed no emotion. Instead, he nodded calmly: "You haven't told me which brand it is."
"As Miss Xu just said, I just came back from the village. Naturally, I don't know the brand. I just thought this watch would be suitable for the banquet house, so I bought it."
"If you don't know the brand, you should know the characters, right?" Xu Ying asked aggressively.
"Xu Ying, you are being a bit unreasonable. What kind of gift someone gives is a matter between the giver and the recipient!"
Some people around made dissatisfied sounds.
Others echoed: "Yes! I know you have a good relationship with Ji Lan, but there's no need to embarrass others!"
"What if this gift was given to us by Miss Ji Rourou?" Xu Ying said, opening the brocade box. Inside were two watches side by side, one for a man and one for a woman. It was obviously not the watch Ji Rourou mentioned.
The moment the brocade box was opened, panic flashed across Ji Rourou's face.
This brocade box was given to her by Deng Yi. She did not open it and read it. Deng Yi just said it was a watch and took it away.
Unexpectedly.
"I don't know what you are talking about," Ji Rourou was stubborn. In Xu Ying's words, she had never seen the world and didn't know what to say under what circumstances would be beneficial to herself.
"Let me explain!" Ji Lan walked from the door and glanced at Ji Rourou with a pair of calm eyes: "I customized this watch from Switzerland last winter. The initials of Yanzhuang and my name are engraved on the strap. "
Ji Lan looked at Yanzhuang with clear and magnanimous eyes: "It doesn't matter who sends the gift, as long as Young Master Yan receives it."
She reached out and took away the female watch in the brocade box: "But this female watch is not suitable for anyone to leave, so I took it away."
"Happy birthday, Yanzhuang."
"Lan Lan," Yanzhuang caught up with Ji Lan in a few steps and blocked him in the elevator.
Afraid that Ji Lan wouldn't listen to her, she spoke in an urgent tone: "We are two childhood sweethearts who grew up together. I didn't even know that there was Ji Rourou between us. I have no feelings for her at all, but the two family friends are here, and I It takes time to solve it, can you give me time?”
"Master Yan, I advise you not to waste your efforts," Ji Lan pushed away his hand that was squeezing her arm.
For a person who has just left school and has not even gotten a foothold in the core family business, what else can he do except honestly accept the blind date arranged by his family?
"Is this the end of our twenty-year friendship as childhood sweethearts?" Yanzhuang's deep voice contained a slight tremor.
As if unable to struggle, but extremely unwilling.
Ding dong————
The elevator door slowly opened and stopped on the seventeenth floor.
Standing outside the door were a group of men in suits and leather shoes, some standing tall or being supported by others. It could be seen at a glance that they had just come out from a good time.
The leading man lowered his head slightly, holding a cigarette between his fingertips, and his jawline was tense and sharp.
The man slowly raised his eyes and met each other
