Chapter 29
The two of them didn't delay too long in Country C, so they set off and returned home immediately after the snow stopped.
Chen Tingwei never saw Lian Jue again in the next period of time. He was arranged to live in the villa before, and his aunt was taken care of by his aunt for three meals a day. Lin Chen occasionally came to visit him, bought some daily necessities for him, and did not stay for a long time, and would not talk to him more - it was more like confirming that he was still alive than visiting him. Chen Tingwei thought absurdly.
Chen Tingwei was still not used to being taken care of, so after he completely retreated, he dismissed his aunt without authorization. Lian Jue called to ask, and Chen Tingwei expressed his thoughts to him and ensured that he had the ability to live independently. Lian Jue didn't say anything else, so that he could contact Lin Chen directly if he had any needs. He said OK.
Lian Jue was probably very busy and hung up the phone in a hurry. But the next day, he asked someone to send him many medical equipment that he seemed familiar and somewhat unfamiliar. At the same time, the obstetrician who had met in a private hospital came here.
"Mr. Lian asked me to come here every week for you to have a physical examination, so you don't have to worry about running to the hospital every week." The doctor smiled at him and made a harmless joke, "After all, it's not a good place."
The doctor was calmer than when he saw Chen Tingwei for the first time. His attitude towards Chen Tingwei was no different from that of a normal person, which made Chen Tingwei much more relaxed.
After the routine physical examination was completed, the doctor asked more private questions, such as living environment and family genetic history, and Chen Ting did not answer as truthfully as possible.
The doctor recorded the conversation and told him that he would do some research without affecting his physical health and fetal development. On the one hand, he made plans for his next childbirth, and on the other hand, he hoped that Chen Ting could not make any contribution in such a rare medical field.
The doctor saw Chen Tingwei's concerns and explained: "Don't worry, even the whole process will be highly confidential before you have successfully delivered."
Chen Tingwei then said, "That's trouble."
The next day, the sequel was coming, and it was still close to dinner time.
After entering the door, he walked straight to the sofa and sat down, and began to frown and look at his phone.
Chen Ting had not made only one person's dinner. Before he could serve it on the table, he was a little embarrassed and said, "Mr. Lian, have you had supper?"
Lian Jue did not look up, omitting the two steps of "No" and "Do you want to eat" and just said: "No."
Chen Ting didn't touch his nose, and said "Oh".
He stood by the sofa for a while, and saw that Lian Jue had no intention of leaving for a while, so hesitated whether it would be rude to go over for dinner first. A car came in in the yard at this time.
Lin Chen walked into the room, first asked Lian Jue hello, and handed the paper bag he brought to Chen Tingwei.
Chen Tingwei took it for no reason: "...Is this?"
Lian Jue seemed to be in a hurry, so he glanced at the watch and said, "Switch it."
The question of whether to eat is to be put aside for the time being.
Chen Ting returned to the bedroom without taking the paper bag, which was a white suit with simple style but excellent tailoring.
The clothes were unexpectedly fit, as if tailored for him. He changed his clothes and went downstairs, walked to Lian Jue, and asked, "Is that OK?"
Lian Jue looked up at him, his eyes paused slightly on him with a strange look, and quickly withdrew his eyes and said, "Yes."
Chen Tingwei was a little uneasy because of his pause just now, subconsciously checked from the reflection of the TV LCD screen if there was something wrong with him.
Before he could find out something wrong, Lian Jue got up from the sofa and said, "Let's go."
Chen Ting was stunned for a moment and quickly asked: "Where to go?"
I don’t know if Lian Jue didn’t hear his question or something, but he had already walked towards the door.
Chen Ting did not look at his back, but then he realized that Lian Jue had been carefully sorted out today. His hair was neatly combed. His black suit had a less conspicuous perm texture and he also wore cufflinks. Perhaps because most of Lian Jue I usually saw were wearing formal clothes, he didn't notice it quickly.
Obviously, Lian Jue needs him to accompany him to attend any formal occasion.
Chen Ting couldn't have to keep up.
Maybe I felt that there was no need to explain it to him, and I didn't tell him where to go until I got in the car.
It was not until the car drove into a tall iron door and bypassed the large garden that Lin Chen whispered: "Mr. Lian, the Chen family has arrived."
Chen Ting did not get off the car in front of a very beautifully designed villa with Lian Jue. The servant who was taking care of the green plants stopped his work and greeted Lian Jue respectfully: "Mr. Lian."
Lian Jue said "Yes" and asked, "Are you all here?"
The housekeeper came over and said, "It's almost here, but a few young people have not arrived yet. I just called and they are all on the way."
The other party's eyes looked at him too obvious, which made Chen Ting a little uncomfortable. Lian Jue said to him: "Follow me."
Chen Ting followed Lian Jue obediently and walked through a very long corridor. He tried his best to keep his pace consistent with Lian Jue, so as not to be too cramped and embarrass Lian Jue.
When he was about to reach the main hall, Lian Jue's steps stopped for a moment.
Chen Ting stood still before he knew it.
Lian Jue turned his head and looked at him, saying, "Come to me."
Chen Tingwei's movements were a little hesitant, and Lian Jue had already pulled his hand over to his arm without authorization.
"Where is the ring?" Lian Jue looked at Chen Tingwei's hand and frowned slightly.
Chen Ting didn't expect that he would suddenly lift the ring. He thought that the ring was just used to deal with the registration ceremony, and never thought about wearing it. He paused and said awkwardly: "It's too big and it's not convenient to wear it, so he put it away."
Lian Jue looked at him with dissatisfaction and said nothing.
The main hall is brightly lit and there are not many people.
Before the start time is yet, the elders will naturally not gather in the hall to wait. At this moment, the young masters and ladies from various families are all young masters and ladies. They are not old-fashioned and talk about the recent economic development trends with champagne.
I don’t know who noticed Lian Jue first, but the few people turned their heads and looked over one after another, were stunned at first, and then laughed.
Chen Ting didn't keenly realize that it was not a kind smile.
Perhaps Chen Tingwei's behavior was too stiff and it was too easy to reveal the stuff. Lian Jue turned his head and leaned into his ear when he took the champagne brought by the servant.
The distance between the two was too close, and Lian Jue's breathing was close to his auricle, bringing up a very thin airflow.
Chen Ting went over to listen to him without slanting his ears, but before he could hear his voice, the heat left his ears.
Chen Tingwei's ears were burned a little red. After a while, he realized that Lian Jue should just want to create the illusion of the two of them whispering intimately.
"Lian Jue." A man came over from the group just now, holding a champagne glass and shaking it gently. He was speaking at Lian Jue, but his eyes were staring at Chen Tingwei, and raised his eyebrows, "Have you brought someone? Don't you introduce it?"
Lian Jue looked up at him and replied coldly, "Yes".
The man was still waiting for his answer with interest, and after a long time he realized slowly that Lian Jue had unilaterally stopped his conversation with him in the last second.
Although he and Lian Jue have never dealt with each other, it was the first time that he had ignored this bluntly, which was nothing more than a great insult to him, so his eyes became stern and sinister.
After a while, his gritted teeth loosened a little, and his expression slowly changed to the previously unfriendly smile.
In the circles they usually come into contact with, sexual orientation is the least rare. Rich people often get tired of what they usually do and like to go in the direction of curiosity. Sleeping in women, men, or anything else is nothing rare, and no one cares about it, but it is different to take it home.
"You are really bold," he said. "You dare to bring such a chaotic person back at the family dinner."
This sentence "A person who is not irrelevant" made Chen Tingwei frown slightly.
The man looked at the two of them with interest and said in a tone that was extremely worthy of beating: "Oh, that's right. One more is more, and two more is more, it's not bad."
This sentence deliberately made even Chen Ting realize something was wrong. He subconsciously turned to look at Lian Jue, and happened to see Lian Jue laughing incredibly.
Just as he was puzzled, Lian Jue had returned to the face without too many expressions, and then turned his head to look at Chen Tingwei: "Do you want to have snacks?"
"No..." Chen Ting didn't say anything.
Lian Jue picked up a piece of tea cake wrapped in oil paper from the dining plate and casually opened it: "Try it, you can't eat such an authentic tea cake elsewhere."
Chen Ting was not forced to take it and said "Thank you".
The feeling of the man's punch into the cotton was really frustrating. He stared at Lian Jue for a long time, then snorted coldly and turned around and left.
Lian Jue picked up a handkerchief and slowly wiped his fingers: "If you don't eat it, you'll lose it."
Chen Tingwei: "..."
Chen Ningxue stood on the second floor and noticed the two men holding hands and talking in secret from the beginning, and their faces became colder.
Lian Jue seemed to have noticed it for a long time, so he looked up and met her gaze and raised his glass to her.
"Ning Xue, why are you staying upstairs?" Some people are not interested in watching the fun.
Chen Ningxue has been acquainted with etiquette since she was a child and is familiar with the way of hospitality. Naturally, it is impossible for the guests to wait downstairs.
She went downstairs to say hello to everyone, she took two champagne and walked over, shouting from afar: "Brother."
Although Chen Ting didn't know from the last card application incident, Lian Jue and Chen Ningxue knew each other, he had never had the opportunity or had no appropriate reason to ask Lian Jue. He suddenly met here today and was a little surprised. More of it was surprise - in this completely unfamiliar and lacking in "kindness", meeting familiar people always made him happy.
He let go of Lian Jue's arm and smiled at Chen Ningxue: "Miss Chen?"
Chen Ningxue stood in front of the two of them. She straightened her back and raised her head. A white tuxedo dress set off her like a noble white swan.
She handed a champagne in her hand to Chen Tingwei, and maintained the elegance that a lady from a noble family should have in every move, but her face looked extremely ugly: "You are capable."
She didn't say anything to Chen Ting.
Her malice for no reason made Chen Ting's blood cool down. Her hand that reached out to receive champagne was in the air. She was stunned for a moment before asking, "What?"
Lian Jue took the champagne from Chen Ningxue and placed it on the table next to her, without even making excuses for her, "He is allergic to alcohol" or "he is uncomfortable."
"My sister, Ning Xue." Lian Jue brought Chen Ting Wei back to his side again, and introduced each other redundantly and formulaicly to the two, "Chen Ting Wei, you have seen it."
Chen Ningxue lowered her eyes and looked at Lian Jue's movements, her face became colder, she pursed her lips and asked, "Are you humiliating me?"
Lian Jue smiled emotionally: "Why do you ask this?"
"Lian Jue." Chen Ningxue called his name, raised his head, stared at Lian Jue with red eyes, hoping to see even a little pity from his face, "If you take into account the friendship we have for so many years, you will not bring him here today."
She obviously suppressed her emotions, but she lowered her voice and said almost weakly: "You know what day it is..."
Lian Jue's smile faded, he played with the ring on his hand, and said vaguely: "Hmm?"
Chen Ningxue looked at Lian Jue deeply, put down the wine glass, and turned around.
Chen Ting did not subconsciously sense the danger - this so-called "family dinner" is obviously not just a family dinner. And he is definitely not just a family dinner as Lian Jue's family member, so it is so easy to accompany him to a family dinner.
The crystal chandeliers in the hall were dazzlingly lit up, and the rich young master and lady in the distance looked like waiting for the show, making Chen Ting nervous unconsciously.
Chen Ting didn't worry about it anymore, but asked: "What are we here to do today?"
"Entertainment." Lian Jue explained with great care.
Chen Ting didn't ask: "Who?"
Lian Jue said: "I."
Lian Jue's tone was calm and seemed to be nothing to do with him, which made Chen Tingwei startled, but soon, he seemed to understand the intention that Lian Jue brought him.
"So what do you need me to cooperate with you?" Chen Ting looked at Lian Jue nervously.
"Stay." Lian Jue said, "Stay beside me."
