Chapter 602 Feeling Familiar
In the banquet hall, Bai Yixin felt relieved when she saw Lin Yelin coming back after making a phone call.
She thought of the bullying incident involving Xie Ruxue that had spread online, and she, who had just been pretending to be weak in front of Lin Yelin, suddenly became nervous.
She immediately walked to Lin Yelin, took Lin Yelin's arm, and wanted to take Lin Yelin away.
Just as Bai Yixin was about to say goodbye to Xie Ruxue quickly, she noticed that Xie Ruxue was staring at Lin Yelin.
She looked at Xie Ruxue as if she was frozen, without blinking, and her eyes looking at Lin Yelin became increasingly obsessed.
Her heart suddenly skipped a beat, thinking, didn't Xie Ruxue say that she liked Ou Jinghuan, the heir of the Ou family?
But when she saw Xie Ruxue's eyes fixed on him, why did it seem like she had fallen for Lin Yelin again?
Bai Yixin was unhappy about this and originally wanted to say hello before leaving, but she didn't want to talk to Xie Ruxue now.
So she closed her open mouth, glanced coldly at Xie Ruxue, then turned around and pulled Lin Yelin away.
Before Lin Yelin left, he glanced at Xie Ruxue who was staring at him in a daze, and then let Bai Yixin pull him away.
Xie Ruxue saw the man whose aura made her feel somewhat familiar, and he left before she could figure out why she had that feeling.
"Hey! Don't go! I want to..." Seeing this, she shouted and tried to follow.
Lin Yelin saw Xie Ruxue's cry, he turned his head to look at Bai Yixin, and asked curiously:
"Who's that girl following us? Don't we need to wait for her?"
Hearing this, Bai Yixin looked back and saw that Xie Ruxue's eyes were still on Lin Yelin, so she became even more alert.
When she heard that Lin Yelin didn't know Xie Ruxue, she felt less nervous.
But she thought of Xie Ruxue's revealing dress and her staring eyes.
Although Xie Ruxue's figure is not as good as Xu Zhishan's, Bai Yixin seems to have a shadow on people who dress in a sexy style.
Or maybe she didn't believe that men could resist the temptation of the flesh, and was worried that Lin Yelin, who had a crush on her, would be seduced away by Xie Ruxue.
So, she turned back with a determined look, quickened her pace to take Lin Yelin away from Xie Ruxue, and explained:
"Don't worry about her. I'm not familiar with that person. She just came over out of nowhere to chat with me.
Let’s go! Brother Ye Lin, accompany me over there. I think there are some delicious desserts there!
Hearing this, Lin Yelin didn't ask any more questions. He glanced at Xie Ruxue behind him and nodded.
Xie Ruxue looked behind Bai Yixin and Lin Yelin, thinking they would stop and wait for her.
As a result, as soon as she stopped, she saw Bai Yixin and the man who seemed somewhat familiar walking faster.
She wanted to follow immediately, but the dress that didn't suit her kept falling down, making her movements clumsy.
Suddenly, just as Xie Ruxue was about to raise her heels and move forward, someone grabbed her arm.
Xie Ruxue was very anxious. When she was pulled, she frowned unhappily and turned around to shake off the arm that was pulling her.
But when she turned around and was about to curse, she saw the person who frightened her, her mother Ye Yanzhi.
She closed her mouth in an instant as she was about to curse, and her unhappy expression immediately disappeared, revealing a timid look.
When Xie's mother Ye Yanzhi saw Xie Ruxue's irritable look, she showed an unhappy expression.
She did not directly scold Xie Ruxue like she did at home, but instead acted like an elegant and noble mother.
She raised her hand, stretched it in front of Xie Ruxue, and gently pushed the hair on Xie Ruxue's forehead aside.
Her movements were very gentle, but the tone she used when speaking to Xie Ruxue was very flat.
That calm feeling, coupled with the way she looked at Xie Ruxue with a faint smile, was like the calm before the storm. She asked
"Who are you running to?"
When Xie Ruxue saw her mother's outstretched hand, she subconsciously dodged as if it was a conditioned reflex.
When she saw that her mother was helping her to fix her hair, she stopped anxiously wanting to beg for mercy.
But under the warning gaze of Xie's mother Ye Yanzhi, her whole body was still very tense.
At this time, Xie Ruxue looked at Bai Yixin's back as she quickly left with Lin Yelin, and then looked at her mother who was deliberately blocking their way.
She lowered her eyes in fear, and finally shook her head helplessly. With a trembling voice, she replied:
"No, I'm not going anywhere..."
“Although the boy just now is from the Lin family, one of the four major families, he is also good-looking.
But the Lin family still cannot compare with the largest family, the Ou family. Moreover, he is very inconspicuous in the Lin family and cannot compare with Ou Jinghuan at all.
So... you should understand what I'm saying, right? The birthday party is about to start, remember what I told you before, don't run around! "
Xie Ruxue didn't expect her mother to find out that she was interested in the man just now. She looked up suddenly and wanted to explain.
But after she heard her mother's warning in her ear, she saw her mother's eyes that seemed to see through everything.
In the end, she could only nod obediently, her tone filled with fear, and replied:
"Got it. I won't run around anymore. I'll wait patiently for Brother Jinghuan to show up."
Seeing Xie Ruxue nod obediently, Xie's mother Ye Yanzhi finally revealed a genuine smile and reminded:
"Don't look so gloomy. Remember how you should look when attending a party?!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Ruxue immediately held her head high and chest out. Even though she was unhappy, she still showed a standard etiquette smile that she had trained well.
Afterwards, Xie's mother Ye Yanzhi took Xie Ruxue's arm very affectionately and walked towards a more central location in the banquet hall.
After a while, Xie's mother Ye Yanzhi brought Xie Ruxue to Ou Dehui and Ou Dehui's wife, who was also her sister Ye Yingran.
She walked up to her husband who was being fawning over Ou Dehui, and she felt no shame or embarrassment about it.
Instead, she acted just like her husband, even more flatteringly, with a tone full of respect, and said with a smile:
"Brother-in-law, sister, I brought Ruxue over to say hello to you!"
"Hello, uncle and aunt!"
Xie Ruxue reacted quickly and greeted Ye Yanzhi as soon as he finished speaking.
She reacted so quickly, probably because she was used to appearing well-behaved and sensible in front of Ou Dehui and Ye Yingran.
If it were before, when Ou Dehui saw the cute-looking Xie Ruxue politely calling him uncle, he would also respond with a smile.
But he had helped Xie Ruxue deal with more than one bullying incident, and when he saw Xie Ruxue's double-faced behavior, he felt disgusted.
In particular, the amount of information disclosed online this time was too huge, which cost him a lot of resources and money.
Ou Dehui not only saw that Xie Ruxue did not help him at all with Ou Jinghuan, but he also wanted to invest money to settle the bad things Xie Ruxue had done.
This made it difficult for him to look at Xie Ruxue in a normal way, and it was also difficult for him to force a smile at Xie Ruxue with his smiling face.
So, regardless of his wife's feelings, he did not show the usual politeness of an elder. His face was gloomy and his tone was cold as he replied:
"Yeah, here I come."
Upon hearing this, Xie Ruxue, Xie's mother Ye Yanzhi, and Xie's father's smiles froze, and they didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Knowing that she had caused trouble for her uncle, Xie Ruxue lowered her head in sadness and self-blame, and the smile on her face disappeared.
At this time, Ou Dehui's wife Ye Yingran saw that the atmosphere was becoming awkward, so she immediately came out to smooth things over.
She walked up to Xie Ruxue, gently touched Xie Ruxue's head, looked doting, and said with a smile:
"Hahaha, it's been a while since we last met. Ruxue has really grown into a beautiful lady!
She's really getting prettier and slimmer, and there's really nothing bad about the girls in our Ye family!"
When Xie Ruxue saw that her aunt did not hate her but praised her so kindly, she felt a familiar sense of family in her heart again and was very touched.
The look in her eyes when she looked at her aunt Ye Yingran was filled with the same admiration and love as her mother's.
At this time, Xie's mother Ye Yanzhi heard her sister coming out to smooth things over, so she naturally couldn't keep her words.
In particular, she was very happy to hear her sister's generous praise of her daughter.
So, she immediately began to praise her sister whom she already admired, and also praised Ou Dehui, saying:
"No, no, Ruxue is beautiful, but when it comes to beauty, among the women in our Ye family, you are the prettiest one!
So our brother-in-law has good taste! But he is also very good!
Otherwise, my sister, who has always been very picky and discerning, wouldn't have chosen my brother-in-law as her husband!"
