The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 279 The show is on
When the door of the engagement hall was pushed open again, two familiar-looking people walked in.

"Lin Xiao, look, Gong Ming is here too."

Tang Wanru, who was standing next to the dining table, stopped stuffing food into her mouth, forced herself to swallow it, then ran over and patted Lin Xiao's hand to remind him.

Lin Xiao's face looked a little grim at this time. She was feeling sulky in her heart and turned around when she heard the words. Sure enough, she saw Gong Ming walking in, followed by his inseparable Kitty.

"Why is Gong Ming here?"

Lin Xiao muttered to himself, Jian Xi also saw the two people, and his heart suddenly moved.

He was not thinking about these two people, but he suddenly remembered Gong Ming's younger brother Zhou Chongguang. In the original drama, Zhou Chongguang, a stomach cancer patient, had undergone surgery and was discharged from the hospital, but now, due to his own reasons, Lin Xiao was not stupid enough to agree to the other party to have the surgery. He didn't know how Zhou Chongguang was doing now.

You wouldn't just send it like this, would you?

Jian Xi's eyes showed a thoughtful look, and then he turned sideways and whispered in Lin Xiao's ear: "Lin Xiao, I suddenly remembered something. Did you get rid of the ring that Gong Ming gave you before?"

"..."

When Lin Xiao, who was already in a bad mood, suddenly heard him mention this matter again, he became even angrier. He reached out and grabbed the man's waist and twisted it hard.

"Do you think I'm the same as you? I've already put it online for people to buy it!"

At the beginning, this guy used this to bully me, even though it was obviously just a misunderstanding. But now, Jian Xi really is having an affair with another woman.

To bring this up deliberately now is simply like the thief crying "stop thief"!
Jian Xi cooperated very well and pretended to be in pain, then laughed again: "I was just asking casually, why are you so angry?"

"Humph!"

Lin Xiao snorted coldly and didn't want to answer this question anymore.

Tang Wanru, who was standing by, saw the two people in front of her quarreling and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you two? Weren't you all fine when you met just now?"

"Ask him!"

Lin Xiao glared at the dog man, Jian Xi spread his hands and smiled at Tang Wanru: "I was bitten by a dog, she despises me."

"..."

After hearing Jian Xi's explanation, Tang Wanru looked even more confused, and then she asked with concern: "Did you get bit by a dog? Is it serious? Do you want to get a rabies vaccine?"

Lin Xiao rolled her eyes. Sometimes she really wanted to open her best friend's brain to see what was inside and how the circuits inside were connected.

Just as they were about to say something, Gong Ming and Kitty had already walked up to them, so Lin Xiao turned around and greeted them, "Mr. Gong, why are you here?"

"Aren't you here too?"

Gong Ming, who always maintained a paralyzed expression, still responded with a blank expression.

"We were invited by Gu Yuan." Tang Wanru came over and said proudly.

Kitty, who was standing behind Gong Ming, took the coat that Gong Ming had taken off, and answered for him at the right time: "Mr. Gong was invited by Gu Yuan's grandfather. Their two families are old friends."

After saying this, Kitty extended her hand and led the way, "Mr. Gong, this way please."

Upon hearing this, Gong Ming turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment he met Jian Xi, who had been silent behind Lin Xiao.

In fact, this was not the first time the two had met. They had met last time at the acquisition announcement conference of Shenggu Group. Although it was only a one-time encounter, Gong Ming had a good memory. When they met again at the engagement ceremony this time, he remembered him instantly.

But he didn't say anything, just nodded and turned away.

Jian Xi also nodded back to him as a greeting.

When Jian Xi looks at Young Master Gong, who likes to force his appearance in the original drama, he feels the same as he does when he looks at Gu Li.

No wonder the other party regarded Gu Li’s cargo as the biggest trophy in the acquisition of Shenggu.

This time, I was invited by the old man of the Ye family to attend Gu Yuan’s engagement ceremony. Was it really just to keep business separate from personal relationships?
Jian Xi looked over there at Ye Chuanping who was chatting happily with Gong Ming, and thought maliciously in his heart that he didn't know if this could be considered a moment of calm before the storm if in the original drama Ye Chuanping had not been "invited" to take over "ME", then

"Jian Xi, what are you thinking about? You look so absent-minded."

After Gong Ming's interruption just now, Lin Xiao's anger subsided a lot. Seeing Jian Xi looking at Gong Ming in the distance, he leaned over to ask him.

After Jian Xi came back to his senses, he sighed and said, "Nothing, do you believe me when I say I'm a little jealous?"

"Oh~" Lin Xiao hugged his arm after hearing that. Although he was happy in his heart, he still tried hard to hold back his smile and pouted deliberately, "What's there to be jealous about? You and Lin Quan... I would only be jealous if a dog bit your neck!"

"Then bite it back now."

The dog man then put his face close to her mouth and whispered with a smile.

Lin Xiao suddenly curled his lips, his eyes stayed on the strawberry marks on Jian Xi's neck again, and his mind couldn't help but imagine the scene of Lin Quan holding him and biting him.

If it were in the past, she would definitely slap him and turn away, but after this period of time... after fermenting, she just felt a little aggrieved.

It's not like Lin Xiao had never slept with Lin Quan before. She even woke up naked in his arms the next day. You know, this kind of thing had only happened to her and Jian Xi since she was a child.

Especially during this period of time, she often sat with Lin Quan to eat, and sometimes they would inevitably talk about topics between the sexes. For example, because they were the only ones in the room and they had been very naked with each other, Lin Quan sometimes wore very cool clothes. Even if the air conditioner and heater in the room were turned on high, Lin Quan would even walk around the room wearing only a loose short-sleeved shirt that only covered his thighs.

Sometimes, Lin Quan would ask her what her usual diet was because of her broad-mindedness...

In short, some life habits, when extended, will always involve things between the two sexes. Although they did not really talk about certain things that happened when they were with Jian Xi, in Lin Xiao's mind, she would subconsciously imagine what happened between her and Jian Xi.

After all, both of them knew that what was supposed to happen between the other and Jian Xi had already happened a long time ago, otherwise they wouldn't have started fighting so soon after they met.

So today, when Lin Xiao saw the strawberry mark on Jian Xi's neck, she did not feel disgusted as she should have, but just felt a little angry. The things in the illusion really happened before her eyes, and she subconsciously wanted to escape.

But it’s unavoidable, so isn’t it annoying?
Now seeing Jian Xi putting his neck in front of him, Lin Xiao gritted his teeth, and finally pulled the collar of this dog man to cover the strawberry marks, then raised his head and kissed him on the face.

"Huh~"

Upon seeing this scene, Tang Wanru immediately frowned her facial features, which were already drifting away, and let out a strange cry.

"Why don't you chew on the neck?"

Jian Xi ignored her, turned around and looked at Lin Xiao with a smile, who tilted his head to the other side and pouted.

"Who wants to bite you? Do you think I'm a dog too?"

Lin Xiao snorted lightly, and his tone suddenly became arrogant.

"What if I want to bite you?" Jian Xi leaned over and whispered in her ear.

Lin Xiao quickly pushed his head back, looked around and said, "There are so many people here, can you please be more serious?"

"Okay." Jian Xi sighed heavily, and then added, "Next time, I'll nibble on it, um... nibble on other places."

"..."

Lin Xiao's breathing stagnated instantly, and some scenes that made her blush came to her mind. At the same time, she inexplicably felt a faint itch in her chest.

Ever since she and Jian Xi broke through the last level of their relationship, she felt that her boyfriend was like a child. He was so grown up and still looking for...

When she was in school, she always felt that they were a burden. Whenever she had a physical test or exercise, they would hold her back. At that time, she was very envious of her best friend Gu Li, who did not have the same troubles as she did.

But now, she thinks she is pretty good. At least Lin Quan is quite envious of her.

When Lin Xiao caught a glimpse of the strange smile in Jian Xi's eyes, he immediately turned around, picked up a glass of wine from the dining table and took a sip.

At this time, Tang Wanru also took a sip of wine and said to Lin Xiao: "Lin Xiao, look, Gu Yuan and his fiancée named Yuan Yi."

Lin Xiao followed her gaze and saw the protagonists of the engagement ceremony chatting and clinking glasses with the guests not far away.

Tang Wanru picked up another glass of wine and drank it all, then stared at them with hatred and said, "Look at that Yuan Yi, I just can't stand him. I have to get myself drunk first before he can stop me from causing trouble."

When I came here today, I was thinking about venting my anger on behalf of my best friend Gu Li. Just like what Lin Xiao said to Jian Xi just now, Gu Li's enemies are her enemies.

However, at this time, Lin Xiao picked up the wine glass and said, "Then you have to stop me from causing trouble first."

As soon as she finished speaking, she was about to walk towards Gu Yuan and Yuan Yi.

"Why are you going?"

Jian Xi, who was standing by, grabbed her arm and asked, pretending to know nothing.

"Go toast to today's engaged couple!"

Lin Xiao spoke righteously. Although she had heard what Jian Xi had just said to her, she didn't hear much.

Jian Xi knew what she was going to do, so he smiled and put his arm around hers and said, "You should come with me even if you want to toast. Just now, Gu Yuan asked me why I came alone."

"Huh? Oh."

Lin Xiao looked at the arm around him, responded and followed Jian Xi.

Tang Wanru behind them also adjusted her skirt which was about to burst, switched into fighting form, and followed behind them with great momentum.

"Don't throw wine or cause trouble later, do you hear me?"

After taking only two steps, Lin Xiao heard Jian Xi leaning his head and whispering something in her ear.

"Can't I help Gu Li vent his anger?"

"Okay, but I suggest you wait until Gu Li comes."

When Gu Li arrives, Lin Xiao and Tang Wanru will basically have no chance to cause trouble again, because according to the plot, Gu Li will directly end the engagement ceremony.

Lin Xiao had no idea what her best friend was about to do, nor did she know that she had already colluded with Gu Yuan. Now that her boyfriend had warned her like this, she could only respond sullenly.

When he walked behind Gu Yuan, Lin Xiao forced himself to smile and shouted, "Gu Yuan, congratulations!"

When Gu Yuan and Yuan Yi turned around and looked at her, she hesitated for a while but couldn't help asking, "Who is this person next to you, dressed like a bride?"

"..."

Before Gu Yuan responded, the smile on Yuan Yi's face shrank slightly. Lin Xiao suddenly felt Jian Xi's arm tightened, and he swallowed back the words he was about to say.

Yuan Yi then smiled and said, "I am Gu Yuan's bride, Yuan Yi."

"Oh~ Congratulations, hehe." Although she swallowed back the words that she wanted to find fault with, it was impossible for Lin Xiao to sincerely congratulate her. Anyone could see how fake and forced her tone was.

Jian Xi then spoke up: "Gu Yuan, look, my female companion is here."

Gu Yuan, who had been silent the whole time, smiled and said, "I expected this. After all, it was me who invited Lin Xiao. Welcome, Lin Xiao."

Lin Xiao responded with two dry laughs, then raised his glass to signal and took a sip of wine.

At this time, Tang Wanru, who was standing on the other side of Lin Xiao, was waiting for Lin Xiao's next move, but at this moment Lin Xiao actually came to toast her.

Moreover, Yuan Yi even returned the toast with a sip of wine with a smile on his face. Tang Wanru's already suppressed desire to cause trouble exploded at this moment, and she took the initiative to say:
"The bride? Shouldn't it be Gu Li? By the way, Gu Yuan, where is Gu Li? Why isn't she here? Did you invite her?"

"..."

After Tang Wanru, the team leader, asked a series of questions, the atmosphere between the few people instantly became subtle.

Yuan Yi stopped smiling, and Lin Xiao stopped feeling depressed.

Even Lin Xiao wanted to give a thumbs up to his best friend. Tang Wanru was simply his mouthpiece!

Jian Xi was a little helpless. He didn't expect that it was Tang Wanru who led the group this time.

But this time, no one should follow.

The air was quiet for three seconds, and the smile on Yuan Yi's face completely disappeared. She was wearing a white long dress that was very similar to a wedding dress. She wore it like this on purpose today in order to make her engagement look like a wedding.

As a result, with Tang Wanru's interference, his good mood disappeared in an instant.

This Tang Wanru...

Yuan Yi stared at her for a while, until Tang Wanru acted scared and took a step behind Lin Xiao, then deliberately said: "What's wrong? I'm stupid, did I say something wrong? Your eyes are so scary!"

"..."

Yuan Yi tightened his grip on the wine glass slightly, and then suddenly laughed.

"No, you are not stupid. On the contrary, I should thank you for your brain."

"?"

Jian Xi, Lin Xiao and Gu Yuan all looked at her with surprise. What was going on?
Even Tang Wanru, who was causing the trouble, was confused and didn't understand what was going on.

Yuan Yi ignored their looks and continued to say to Tang Wanru: "Also, I am the bride, my name is Yuan Yi."

Tang Wanru, who was confused by her performance, walked out from behind Lin Xiao. After hesitating for a second, she quickly adjusted her state and replied: "Really? Then I have to toast you."

As soon as Tang Wanru finished speaking, she stretched out the wine glass in her hand. When Yuan Yi was about to clink glasses with her, Tang Wanru seemed to move too much and accidentally spilled the wine, splashing directly on Yuan Yi.

"what!"

Yuan Yi screamed in surprise. She really didn't expect the other party to have such a trick. She quickly patted her wet skirt.

Lin Xiao secretly exclaimed, the smile in his eyes could hardly be hidden, and Tang Wanru still pretended to say: "Sorry, sorry, sorry, I am a sports practitioner, I didn't control my strength for a moment, I'm so sorry!"

At this time, Gu Yuan also began to cooperate and said, "Tang Wanru, what are you doing?!"

"It was a toast, but I just couldn't hold back."

Tang Wanru responded without any guilt on her face, and just as Yuan Yi raised her head and glared at her, the door to the hall was opened again.

The eyes of several people, no, it should be the eyes of everyone in the audience, looked over there.

Jian Xi, who had been watching the excitement, also looked over and started laughing.

Because the real protagonist of this scene—Gu Li—appeared on the scene.

But at this moment, Yuan Yi's expression suddenly changed, not only because of Gu Li, her love rival, but more because of the young man who walked out from behind Gu Li.
