Chapter 208 I Only Like He Zichen
The symphony orchestra was playing beautiful music on the spot. Not long after the banquet began, Nangong Hao blocked several waves of men who wanted to chat up Nangong Jin. He knew these so-called upper-class people too well, and they were just looking for something new.
And Nangong Jin was totally unaware of it, his eyes were glued to He Zichen, watching him handle himself well and behave in the crowd, he was simply in awe of him.
"Nangong Jin, can you restrain yourself a little?"
Nangong Hao complained speechlessly. In fact, he couldn't understand why Nangong Jin liked He Zichen so much, although he had to admit that the other party was indeed handsome.
At this time, a familiar voice came from the landing of the stairs, "Thank you all for attending my succession dinner. I'm here, let me offer a toast to everyone first."
Qi Qin on the stage was wearing a satin gray and white suit. The slim cut set off his body proportions perfectly. Under the spotlight, he looked like a prince charming.
His gaze kept flickering towards Nangong Jin until he saw the other person's clothes. His eyes suddenly lit up and the smile on his lips never disappeared.
Nangong Hao raised his eyebrows slightly, looking back and forth between the two of them with an inquiring gaze, then chuckled in sudden realization: It turns out that they were wearing couple outfits, this damn boy has quite a few tricks up his sleeve.
"Brother, Qi Qin looks great today, right?"
"Oh? Then will you choose him as your significant other?"
“Ahem…” Nangong Jin was startled by his words, “Stop joking, I only like He Zichen.”
Looking at his stubborn sister in front of him, Nangong Hao couldn't help but feel a little worried. He looked towards Lin Hai. Qi Xue had been following He Zichen closely. Everyone present could see Lin Hai's intention.
"Next, my father and mother will represent me in dancing the first dance of the night!" There was a look of surprise on the faces of the guests, even Chyi Chin's parents.
"What the hell is this brat up to? How come I didn't know about this?"
Although Mr. Qin still had a smile on his face, he complained to his wife with gritted teeth.
"Well, I don't know either. He never discusses anything with us. Hey..."
At this time, Chyi Chin continued to add: "Because the girl I love has not yet agreed to my pursuit, so I have to keep myself clean! For this, I will punish myself with a drink. I hope everyone has a good time tonight."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar at the scene, and everyone finally couldn't help but start discussing in a low voice.
"The Qi family is such a top family, but there is still someone who would reject Young Master Qi. Is that person stupid?!"
"Everyone knows that the eldest son of the Qi family is famous for his purity of mind and desires. Otherwise, he would be thirty years old and have no one of the opposite sex around him. There were even rumors that he was the one..."
Compared to the shock of others, Qi Qin's parents were even more shocked: "Did you hear that? Your son has a girl he likes? Oh my God, am I hallucinating?"
Seeing his wife's exaggerated reaction, Father Qin gently patted the back of her hand to keep her calm. "There are so many people watching below. Okay, let's go down and be our tools. If the old man hadn't passed away early, we wouldn't have such a low status. Now no one can control this brat."
Nangong Hao looked at Nangong Jin's awkward expression and drank the red wine with his lips slightly curled. Compared with He Zichen, he certainly supported Qi Qin to be his brother-in-law.
Beautiful waltz music sounded in the banquet hall, and the guests gathered together to enjoy the host's first dance.
Qi Qin took advantage of this opportunity and slowly came to Nangong Jin's side, "You are so beautiful today!"
Nangong Hao also tactfully stepped aside, but Nangong Jin became even more nervous. She tightly grasped the water cup and smiled awkwardly: "You are also very handsome, hehe!"
"This is the happiest thing I've heard today." Qi Qin stretched out his right hand and gently wiped the crumbs from the corner of the other person's mouth with his fingertips, with a doting smile on his face.
Nangong Jin could only hide away awkwardly.
This kind of intimate behavior between them was all seen by He Zichen, who was not far away and had been paying attention to Nangong Jin. He felt a huge sense of crisis in his heart, as the other party was far superior to him in every aspect.
His eyes darkened, he clenched his fists, and wanted to walk towards them, but Lin Hai would never let him do as he wished, "Zi Chen, you stay with Xue Er, I'm a little tired, I'll go sit in the lounge."
Without waiting for He Zichen to refuse, he leaned on his crutches and slowly left the banquet hall. Qi Xue, who was standing beside him, looked at him shyly, "Brother Zichen, can you dance with me?"
He Zichen turned around with a cold expression, "I'm a little tired today, I'm sorry, please go find someone else!"
"Then I'll go sit over there with you."
No matter how reluctant He Zichen was, this was the Qi family's home ground after all, and he still needed to save some face for the other party, so He Zichen could only let her go.
Nangong Jin was also feeling very uncomfortable facing Qi Qin. She could only keep drinking water to hide her embarrassment. Qi Qin just sat quietly beside her to keep her company.
“Miss Nangong Jin, my master wants to see you!”
There was a man in a black suit who looked like a bodyguard standing in front of them.
Qi Qin looked up and recognized that this was Lin Hai's bodyguard. He stood up and blocked Nangong Jin: "Sorry, she is not free now!"
"Mr. Qi, please don't make it difficult for me. The old man has always valued the relationship between the Lin family and the Qi family. Are you sure you want to do this? Besides, the old man just wants Miss Nangong Jin to have a chat, so please rest assured."
Seeing that the other party had said this, Qi Qin could only turn around and pull Nangong Jin to tell him: "Don't be afraid, since Grandpa Lin is meeting you in this kind of occasion, he has no intention of embarrassing you. I will have someone follow you. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, understand?"
Nangong Jin's first reaction was to look for He Zichen in the crowd, but she couldn't find him. From the moment she saw him again, Nangong Jin knew that sooner or later the Lin family would find her. After all, when she was a lawyer, she had seen a lot of the love and hatred, and various means used by these wealthy families.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." She just glanced at the bodyguard calmly, "Let's go!"
"plz follow me!"
The bodyguard has been with Lin Hai for decades, and there was a glimmer of admiration in his eyes for Nangong Jin's calmness and composure.
The two of them walked through the crowd and soon arrived at the exclusive lounge. During this short journey, Nangong Jin had already rehearsed in his mind all the possible situations that might arise.
But when she really stood in front of Lin Hai face to face, she couldn't help but tremble in her hands and feet because of the powerful aura of a superior who had fought and struggled in the business world for decades.
