Chapter 68: Marriage Announcement
As soon as the little girl’s voice fell, there was silence all around her.
In Shen Yijin’s vision, the door of the villa was wide open, Jing Xun was standing under the light, behind him was the magnificent inverted crystal lamp.
The gentle light spilled onto him, making a halo of light around the youth.
Jing Xun laughed when he heard the little girl’s shout. He started to laugh with his rosy lips and pretty white teeth.
He glanced at Xiao Yinyin helplessly, then met Shen Yijin’s deep but bright eyes.
“Uh……”
Then Jing Xun suddenly felt embarrassed.
From the moment he got out of the elevator, he knew that many people were watching him, perhaps out of curiosity, or perhaps for other reasons. But even if he knew it, Jing Xun did not think too much about being gawked at. Even when the others heard Yin Yin’s shout and started talking about it, he didn’t care.
But strangely enough, as long as he thought of the fact that Shen Yijin could also hear it…wife or something…
He would feel embarrassed!
Very embarrassed!
At this moment, Shen Yijin had already stepped forward to them.
First he looked at the youth.
When the other side blushed, he moved his eyes away and turned to the small child in Jing Xun’s arms, suggesting in a soft voice: “Let me carry her.”
“Mhmm.” Jing Xun nodded, and then lowered his head to ask Yinyin: “Does Yinyin want Brother Jin to hold you?”
The little girl thought about it, then nodded with wide eyes.
After nodding in agreement, she turned around half-twisted very skillfully, and stretched her hands towards Shen Yijin, just like what she did with Jing Xun.
Shen Yijin skillfully took her over.
He might not be considered proficient. He just had a wide palm, slender fingers, plus strong arms and wider shoulders.
So when he took Xiao Yinyin over, he didn’t exert much strength, but it looked so effortless.
Xiao Yinyin immediately exerted her skill of being hugged by adults in a perfect manner.
——Just as when Jing Xun picked her up, she quickly adjusted the position in Shen Yijin’s arms and grabbed her brother Jin’s neck.
She also seemed to feel that Brother Jin was more powerful than brother.
This time, she sat comfortably on half of Shen Yijin’s arm, instead of lying on all fours on Jing Xun’s body, and using her round face to clamp his shoulders, afraid that brother couldn’t bear her weight otherwise.
While Yinyin was relieved, she shook her calf quite relaxedly and happily, and then lay beside Shen Yijin’s ear, saying something.
Jing Xun: “……”
Jing Xun saw the implication.
This was really…not hurtful, but very insulting.
He’s going to start exercising when he gets back!
There was no telling what the little girl had whispered about, after listening, Shen Yijin unexpectedly smiled.
——His peach blossom eyes might seem cold and indifferent to strangers, but there was a little light inside, like starlight.
At the same time, Shen Yijin came in front of Jing Xun.
Then Jing Xun was amazed to find that sir not only could hold Yinyin steadily with one arm, but he could even free up another arm to wrap around his waist!
“Have you finished playing chess?”
“Uh-huh.” Jing Xun, who was hugged, answered in a deep voice, after thinking for a moment, he suddenly dismissed the idea.
——Forget it, forget it, profession has specialization.
Sir had strength, but he was smart!
……Although Shen Yijin was also very smart.
When he raised his eyes and looked over, sir was really tall, and his face was also handsome, there was a kind of contrast when holding the child. In addition, when standing together, they looked like a family of three…
The blush on his face was about to reach his ears, Jing Xun couldn’t care about it anymore.
He turned his gaze to Yinyin: “What did Yinyin secretly tell Brother Jin just now?”
Yinyin, who was questioned, was a little embarrassed to face him, and buried her face on Shen Yijin’s shoulder with a smirk.
Her fleshy cheeks were squeezed out of shape again. Shen Yijin’s shoulders sank slightly, he was still holding the child steadily while telling Jing Xun, “She said she was afraid of tiring you out.”
As he said, he lowered his head slightly to reach Jing Xun’s ears. The tall nose and thin lips stopped less than a centimeter away from his ears. Shen Yijin’s low and intoxicating voice completely overshadowed the classical music playing in the hall, falling only on Jing Xun’s ears.
“The original words are ‘I can’t tire brother Jin’s bride’ .”
Jing Xun: “!……!”
Why, why did he become a bride again?
After saying this, Shen Yijin raised his head and stood still.
Jing Xun felt that his ear that had been sprayed by the sir’s breath… was completely burning, and it was so hot!
At this moment, Shen Yijin suggested: “Shall we go outside for a drink?”
Jing Xun certainly had no objection. He lowered his head and was led out of the mansion by Shen Yijin.
His posture, coupled with the hand that Shen Yijin put on his waist, was somewhat like a little loveable youth.
In addition, there was a little girl who looked very much loved. There was a really warm and sweet atmosphere of a family of three.
But……
Compared with the calmness of this “family of three”, those close and far away, whoever heard the commotion couldn’t help but talk after they left.
The whole living room was thoroughly exploded.
One of the most frequently asked questions was: “If I remember correctly, wasn’t the eldest young master of the Shen family single?”
Secondly, there were different degrees of surprise and disbelief——
“At first, I didn’t pay attention to the person who the little girl shouted at, but he turned out to be Shen Yijin, what is brother Jin’s wife? This is too…what the hell.”
“I’m different from you. My first reaction was a child’s babble. I didn’t expect president Shen to go up and hug his waist! Who said that President Shen is cold, isn’t he quite good, haha!”
“It seems that this year’s birthday party, old mister Shen is going to receive double happiness.”
“But whose child is that young man? I always felt that young master Jin’s reaction… it doesn’t look like a marriage union, he seems to really like him.”
“His origin must not be ordinary. Otherwise, can president Shen take fancy?!”
“That’s right, President Shen even refused my family’s Weiwei, let alone some random person.”
“It’s over, if my child knows that president Shen has a partner, then he must be very heartbroken!”
Most of the people in the house were middle-aged elders, but in the courtyard outside, there were mostly juniors who were the same age as Shen Yijin.
But whether inside or outside, when people saw them, two big and one small, walking out hugging each other, they were no less surprised than each other.
Under the crowd’s gaze, the three people came to the buffet table in the garden. Yinyin, who was held by Shen Yijin, was fed a sip of water and a small nut by Jing Xun.
“Damn, isn’t that Yan Jingxun?!”
Not long after Lin Li and the others entered the yard to socialize, they saw a little girl sandwiched between Shen Yijin and Yan Jingxun at the self-service buffet area as soon as they turned around. The three of them had a good time and seemed to be talking about something.
And this time, they were wearing black and gray. Yan Jingxun and Shen Yijin were obviously wearing a couple outfits.
…This was so obvious!
In order to show respect, most of the people attending the banquet were in formal clothes.
It was impossible for Yan Jingxun to get himself that kind of formal attire, it was normal for Shen Yijin to prepare it for him.
But!
Today’s banquet was different from a private party. The birthday banquet of old mister Shen was full of honorable elites. Even if you brought someone to the party, you would only bring your children or spouse. No one would bring random playmates as a companion.
Like them, they were not qualified to receive invitations from the Shen family by themselves.
The reason why they were able to come was to accompany the elders in their family.
So what happened with Yan Jingxun?
Why was he here?
Even if it was Shen Yijin, this was too arrogant and indecent!
“Where is Er shao? Does he know about this?” Lin Li’s small group asked in a daze.
“Isn’t Er shao still ill and hospitalized? By the way, he won’t come back today to congratulate grandpa Shen on his birthday?”
“I don’t know.” Someone said, “Er shao just disappeared from the world during this time. He won’t reply to any message in the group chat. When I went to see him, he was either dizzy or asleep. His mother wouldn’t let us visit…”
“He will come.” Lin Li said: “If he doesn’t even come back for his grandfather’s birthday, how sick is he? Unless he doesn’t want to get well.”
“Hahaha, that’s exciting. I wonder what he will look like when he finds out that his former little lover was invited to the party by his own big brother.”
“What expression can he have? Isn’t it the happiness of finally getting rid of the sticky broom star1Ominous thing or bad luck?”
“Tsk tsk, I don’t think it will be like that …… mainly, don’t you guys think Yan Jingxun is now becoming …… how to say it, if I were Er shao, I think I would regret it.”
“He has changed. Damn, how he can laugh in front of Shen Yijin, even I don’t dare to be so damn casual!”
“And his smile… was really good-looking. Look at the tear mole and the bright eyes, absolutely. Has Yan Jingxun ever smiled like this in front of Er shao before?”
“Who knows, you have to ask Er shao himself. Maybe Er shao has never seen it either. But even if he did, he wouldn’t be bothered, hahaha…”
“Take it easy, Er shao is still ill, don’t talk nonsense.”
“F*ck, what am I talking nonsense? I’m obviously boasting about Er shao!”
“Come on, why are you guys arguing over this?” Lin Li somewhat speechlessly interrupted their argument, he just lamented: “I just don’t understand what kind of charm this Yan Jingxun has that can make Da shao ye bring him to this kind of party.”
The last time he ran into these two people in a bar, he could follow along to eat menlon, and took the opportunity to tease Er shao a little.
But now, Yan Jingxun could come to such an occasion…he really couldn’t understand this.
To be honest, Lin Li was also a little jealous in his heart.
He didn’t get why Yan Jingxun, who they once looked down upon in every way possible, could appear here?
He was only brought here after begging his dad for a long time!
Lin’s family only had one invitation, besides his mother, his dad could bring one more person at most. But there were many children in their family, and the competition was naturally fierce.
Being invited by the Shen family was originally a status symbol.
Occasions like this one, going to a banquet itself was also a kind of socialization. It was very important to make more friends of the same status while demonstrating one’s own status at the same time.
They used to follow Er shao in the past, relying on the face of the Shen Family young master, they didn’t need any invitations wherever they went.
But during this period of time, they completely lost contact with him, forgetting about asking him to open the back door for them…
In order to attend this banquet, Lin Li paid a huge price. And in their small group, there were quite a few people like him.
That’s why they were shocked that Yan Jingxun was also here.
“…Could it be that Yan Jingxun is also like us, he became Da shao ye follower?” A person who also felt that something was out of place couldn’t help analyzing.
“Fool!” Lin Li couldn’t help cursing: “Didn’t you see the photo last time! He was obviously taken by Da shao ye!…”
Lin Li’s words were interrupted by another companion: “Hey, Old mister Shen has come out, is it about to start? Why hasn’t Er shao arrived yet?”
As they spoke, everyone flocked to the front door of the villa.
Old mister Shen, wearing a Tang suit, was standing at the doorway. The slightly higher ground and the passing lights made it easy for everyone to see him.
The first part, which was also the beginning of the banquet, was where old mister Shen took the lead to say a few words.
He began by thanking everyone who was here today.
The voice of the elder man came out of the speakers on the lawn through the microphone. More and more people in fancy clothes gathered at the courtyard holding wine glasses.
Lin Li and their small group also went up, all huddled together. Someone with sharp eyes saw Shen Yijin handing the little girl in his arms to the nanny next to him. Then he held Yan Jingxun’s hand and also stepped in the direction of the courtyard.
“…This Da shao ye is bewitched.” The person who saw this scene couldn’t help pointing it out to his companions, and whispered: “Look, they are still holding hands.”
“Tsk tsk, Shen Yijin, alas, I can’t believe he also has such an ignorant moment! How to put it, the hero has a weakness for beauty2Chinese idiom, heroes often lose their fighting spirit and ruin their reputations because of beautiful women.…Oh yes, then Er shao has a chance!”
As he spoke, his companion patted his thigh: “Have you ever thought that if grandpa Shen knew that Da shao ye brought his little toy to his birthday banquet, wouldn’t it be…”
“F*ck, do it. Ten out of ten family dramas!” This person immediately pulled out his mobile phone as he said, “Hurry up, hurry up and send a WeChat message to Er Shao, and tell him about this!”
But before he had time to edit the text messages, grandpa Shen’s smiling voice once again came out of the 3D stereo: “While all my family and friends are here today, I will also share with you one important and joyful thing for my Shen family. That is, my eldest grandson Ah Jin, is going to get married…”
“……married?”
The hand holding the phone paused, and there was a lot of chatter around.
The small group followed the people next to them, and everyone looked up in unison.
Under the bright light, Shen Yijin’s long legs were striding forward, all the way to his grandfather.
Next to him, Yan Jingxun, who was holding his hand, also walked up and stood next to Grandpa Shen, calm and unhurried.
The author has something to say:
Jing Xun in front of other people: Oh, right, sir and I are getting married.
Jing Xun in front of sir: Ahhhhhh sir and I are getting married ! !
Summary: Other people are not important.
Other people: ? ? ?
