C37 What Did the Old Man Say to You?

In fact, not only did Leng Wanyan have that kind of arrogance, she also had that kind of pride. That kind of pride was not something that could be faked. In the depths of her eyes, the peace of power, money, and status was something that other people did not have.

As long as she wanted something, she would get it. This kind of thing did not depend on charity, but on her own hard work.

"Wanyan, you are very beautiful tonight. You are a perfect match with Zixuan!" Shangguan Shuo said to Leng Wanyan with satisfaction.

Leng Wanyan smiled. She was charming and graceful.

Those who did not know her background did not know that she was still a university student.

"Thank you for your compliment, grandpa!" After saying that, she turned to Shangguan Shuo and said, "Grandpa, can Wanyan make a small request tonight?"

Dong Ying, who was dressed elegantly, said discontentedly, "I just came here and wanted to ask the old man. If there is anything, can't we talk about it at night?"

Shangguan Shuo dotingly patted the back of Leng Wanyan's hand and said, "It's okay, say it!"

Leng Wanyan put her face close to Shangguan Shuo's ear and said a few words about a book. No one else could hear it at all.

Shangguan Shuo frowned and thought for a while with his sharp eyes. He touched the back of his head and said, "Zixuan! Your wife is very considerate of you. I approve of this request today!"

Leng Wanyan kept her head down and smiled without saying anything. Her smile was bright and charming. Her modest and unpretentious smile made everyone who saw it feel warm.

Shangguan Zixuan turned his head and looked at Leng Wanyan with a profound gaze. For a moment, it was a fiery gaze, and then it returned to being cold. It made Leng Wanyan somewhat unable to understand this man's thoughts.

Even so, Leng Wanyan still maintained her smile. Occasionally, when she looked up, she would meet a familiar gaze in the distance.

Her expression changed little by little. In a while, her eyes became clear. The man not far away had a noble and calm attitude. Wasn't the refined and refined man the little uncle Shangguan Yiping that Shangguan Zixuan was talking about?

Why did this man always give her that feeling of familiarity?

But after that moment of familiarity, Leng Wanyan saw that the man's eyes were only polite, polite, and gentlemanly.

This man was really not simple. Could it be that she had some kind of relationship with this man?

Shangguan Ze sat beside the man. With a glass of red wine in hand, he looked at the people at the banquet with a smile that was not a smile.

Leng Wanyan slightly nodded to the man and maintained that kind of distant and courteous smile on her face.

"Big Brother, it seems that this future daughter-in-law of yours is really good. Look at how she coaxed the old man to be happy!" After the man finished speaking, he drank the red wine in the cup in one gulp.

After drinking the wine, Leng Wanyan noticed a fierce glint in the man's eyes.

"Ying, the banquet is about to begin! Let's go!" Shangguan Ze ignored his brother's words and said to Dong Ying beside him.

After they entered the seats, Shangguan Zixuan, Dong Ying and Shangguan Ze sat on Shangguan Shuo's left and right hands. Leng Wanyan naturally sat beside Shangguan Zixuan, and Shangguan Yiping sat on the other side of her.

She was sandwiched between Shangguan Zixuan and Shangguan Yiping.

In fact, the two people beside her were both important figures of Shangguan's Group, and one of them was the true heir. The other was the actual heir, and in the middle was a dazzling woman. The three of them had already become the focal point of the banquet, and the focal point was Leng Wanyan. This mysterious woman.

Shangguan Zixuan had always maintained the image of a cold-faced man. Although everyone's eyes were on him, he was calm and composed. Every move he made was filled with an arrogant noble aura.

On the other hand, Shangguan Yiping, who was standing on the other side of her, had a gentle smile on his face. His eyes were filled with a calm and serene expression.

The entire round table was filled with family members. Everyone was talking about the Shangguan's Group's performance in the past year. Some people were flattering each other, but Shangguan Ze and Dong Ying remained silent. These two important figures in the family were people that they didn't want to have anything to do with during the banquet. They did not say a word.

Leng Wanyan could not butt in and felt a little uncomfortable. She could not help but pick up the goblet by her hand. Just as she was about to take a sip, a pair of warm hands grabbed her wrist.

"Wanyan - when you drink it, shake it gently. The taste will be better and longer!"

Shangguan Yiping's pleasant voice was heard from the right side of Leng Wanyan. It was as gentle as the spring breeze and drifted into Leng Wanyan's ears in such a noisy dinner.

She did not hear any ill intentions or mockery.

Leng Wanyan looked up in surprise and met Shangguan Yiping's eyes. They were both deep, but there wasn't a trace of coldness in his eyes. It was just that it was very deep, so deep that it was impossible to see the bottom. It was so deep that he could not see anything inside.

Perhaps this man was used to hiding his feelings in the deepest, most unfathomable place!

She smiled and moved her hand away from the man's big hand. She said, "young uncle, thank you for your reminder!"

Shangguan Yiping's smile was still on his face, but his eyes passed through her and fell on Shangguan Zixuan.

Leng Wanyan's back stiffened, as if she had already felt the cold gaze of the person beside her.

She moved her body unnaturally and moved closer to Shangguan Zixuan. Was she trying to draw a clear line with Shangguan Yiping?

In fact, even an idiot could see that Shangguan Zixuan cared about what Shangguan Yiping did, no matter how calm they looked. However, in this big family, the cruel reality and money made the distinction between power and status embarrassing.

Leng Wanyan did not want to challenge Shangguan Zixuan's bottom line, so no matter how warm Shangguan Yiping's eyes were, she had to avoid them.

She held the glass of wine and was surrounded by a pair of big hands. Before she could react, she was pulled over by Shangguan Zixuan. Now she was almost in the arms of the man.

His face was close to her face. That familiar overbearing aura instantly surrounded Leng Wanyan. Under the eyes of everyone, they looked at each other with deep affection.

Leng Wanyan was locked by his eyes. Under the bright light, her brown eyes were enlarged in the man's black gem-like eyes. Her eyes were a little panicky.

"Tell husband, what did you say to the old man just now?"

The man's side profile was handsome and flawless, and the curve was just right.

His deep eyes flashed with a layer of charming light, and there was also some indulgence. To outsiders, it seemed that they loved each other very much, and they were envious of others.

Only Leng Wanyan knew what kind of cold and ruthless heart this man had under his deep gaze.

But why would he still feel flustered when the man's powerful and overbearing aura surrounded her? She must not be infatuated with him. Leng Wanyan calmed herself down. She had an idea and revealed a mysterious smile, "Guess?"
