108 A Talented Woman(1/3)
"Tighten your tummy!"
Taking a deep breath, and with the sound of a zipper being pulled up behind him, Mint slowly relaxed.
"Yingying holds it in his hand. Sister-in-law, your waist is so thin. My uncle can't help but touch it every day, right?"
Mint turned back to look at Chun'er who was smiling ambiguously and still stroking her slim waist. He stretched out his hand and gave her an unkind chestnut. Chun'er whined and retracted his hand to touch his forehead.
Mint held up the overly long skirt and put on high heels. Xiu Ran stood upright in front of the mirror. The red tube top floor-length evening gown perfectly outlined her graceful and slim figure. Her snow-white skin was covered by the red evening gown.
The white skin was as red and tender as cream. She smiled practisingly at Chun'er who was still touching her forehead in the mirror, but the words she spat out were dangerous: "Remember, your sister-in-law is not someone you can tease."
Chun'er pouted secretly. To be honest, Mint still has a certain degree of majesty in her heart. Although it is not as scary as her uncle Zhan Yifan, Mint is definitely not someone she dares to offend easily. Especially after seeing
After she tortured Bo Yan so much that he left in despair, Chun'er began to have another look at and measure his domineering and restrained sister-in-law.
Seeing that she seemed to have really scared Chun'er, Mint reached out and waved: "Hello? The scare... is here?"
"How is that possible?" Chun'er took a breath and put a smile on her face: "I was just thinking about the Bo family. Sister-in-law, where did your aunt go? Why did the Bo family hide your life experience?
So many years?"
Mint was silent for a few seconds, turned around, took the bracelet and gently put it on her wrist before saying slowly: "If there are no hidden secrets, we won't go to great lengths to hide the truth."
Chun'er's expression became solemn, and she looked at Mint in deep thought.
"Knock knock." It wasn't until there was a knock on the door that Chun'er came back to his senses and ran over to open the door. When he saw his uncle Zhan Yifan, Chun'er was not surprised at all. He stuck out his tongue and laughed at Zhan Yifan naughtily.
: "Uncle, you are so impatient. My sister-in-law and I have only been together for ten minutes and you can't wait to arrest me?"
Mint couldn't laugh or cry with Chun'er. Did this girl know that she was always provoking and provoking the two of them?
Zhan Yifan's eyes turned cold, and he ran away without saying anything. He held up his skirt and shouted: "Uncle is beating someone, uncle is beating someone..."
Mint covered her lips and smiled, Zhan Yifan reached out and slammed the door, his face a little ugly.
Mint immediately walked over, stretched out his hand and tugged on Zhan Yifan's tie and said, "Hey... are you really angry? She is just a child, don't argue with her... In fact, she is quite happy. Seeing her like this every day, I also
Very happy."
Zhan Yifan held Mint's hand and raised his eyebrows slightly. He did not continue Mint's question about Bai Yuchun. Instead, he held her slender waist, looked at her delicately made-up face and said, "Don't be nervous, just
Treat it like a normal family dinner."
Mint took a slight breath and nodded gently to Zhan Yifan: "Yeah...I'll try my best." How could she not be nervous? Although she had seen a lot of people in the world, she had only met his parents since they got married.
It's just that she really didn't understand any of his relatives or the environment he was in. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't nervous, not to mention that this banquet was just for her to see these things.
Prepared by people.
"Baby..." Zhan Yifan suddenly opened his arms and hugged Mint into his arms. Mint gave a faint 'hmm' as an answer. Zhan Yifan patted her back and breathed softly: "You have to know
, this banquet is for them to get to know you, not for you to get to know them."
Mint's nose felt sour, and an inexplicable emotion surged into her heart.
Standing at the entrance of the spiral staircase, Mint's heart gradually calmed down while listening to the music coming from the hall below. It was not because he was no longer nervous, but because Zhan Yifan was beside him, even though all the people below were strangers from another country.
I don't care anymore at this moment. She married him,
This generation has too much time and time to get to know these 'relatives' who are strangers to her. As he said, this day is a chance for them to get to know her, and she only needs to be in his arms.
Just walk and look at the scenery and show yourself in front of them.
Going downstairs, too many eyes fell on her, she knew. And how much curiosity, appreciation, disdain, indifference, enthusiasm and joy were in these visiting eyes, she could not analyze and capture them one by one.
He just kept a slight smile and showed his best self in front of this brand new family.
Song Qingyu, who was elegant and dressed in a black dress, took the lead in applauding, and the whole living room burst into "welcome" applause. Mint raised his head and looked at Zhan Yifan, then lowered his head, and the two
The hands holding each other held each other tighter.
Who is the young lady of the Zhan family, the new wife of the heir to the Zhan family? Even their own family is curious about what kind of woman can marry into the Zhan family. Although some people heard about the agreement, some people sneered.
Even laughing at this ridiculous agreement determines the future heir.
They had all kinds of dissatisfaction and doubts about the new daughter-in-law because of the sudden cancellation of the banquet yesterday. But when Zhan Yifan, the heir of the Zhan family, appeared on the spiral staircase holding his newlywed wife, he slowly descended
At that time, everyone was surprised to find that this new daughter-in-law was really beautiful.
A typical oriental beauty, with a small face, big eyes, and a tall and slender figure. Wearing a red dress, she is more charming than a flower. But her innate nobility and coolness always make people feel that she is not approachable.
, but can smile gently in the arms of a man, how can people not be amazed by it?
Being held in Zhan Yifan's arms, the two of them standing together are completely worthy of the words "talented man and beautiful woman".
After landing, the applause stopped. Zhan Guobang and his wife Song Qingyu came to the side of Mint and Zhan Yifan. Song Qingyu gently winked at Mint, and Zhan Guobang also smiled slightly as he watched his daughter-in-law use their words to everyone.
The second mother tongue introduced in fluent English: "As you have seen, she is Yifan's new wife, Mint. On January 10th, we will hold another wedding for them in the UK. In the days to come,
Everyone should take good care of her."
Song Qingyu also said: "She is still very unfamiliar with Britain, so everyone should help her more."
After stumbling, Mint finally understood. He nodded and introduced himself briefly to everyone: "Hello everyone, my name is Mint. Please take good care of me from now on..."
Zhan Yifan lowered his head and pressed a kiss on her forehead, smiled softly and said in Chinese: "Baby, you are great."
Mint blushed slightly. Although others could not hear what they were saying, it could be seen from their expressions and subtle interactions that the two of them had a very harmonious relationship. This surprised everyone in the Zhan family.
In their eyes, Zhan Yifan is definitely not a man who likes to mess with women. Although he has some relationship with his mother, his indifference towards women once worried the Zhan family. Although there are also
People who watch good shows and rejoice in misfortune, but Zhan Yifan's attitude towards people is definitely 70% indifferent and 30% alienated. Kissing a woman in public like this... really surprised and surprised everyone in the Zhan family. Although
Kissing is just a common etiquette in the UK, but everyone knows that Zhan Yifan is an arrogant mixed race who doesn't even bother to pay attention to the etiquette of kissing. From this, it seems that his small move tonight shocked the hearts of Zhan's family.
"This is the second aunt and uncle." Zhan Yifan brought Mint to a middle-aged woman and introduced her. Mint looked at her. She didn't look young because she was well-maintained, but from the perspective of the foreign man beside her, these two
She must be at least in her forties. Is this my father-in-law’s sister and brother-in-law?
"Second aunt, hello uncle."
"Welcome to this family." The second aunt raised the red wine in her hand to signal to Mint. Mint raised the 'champagne' that had long been handled by Zhan Yifan to greet the second aunt and uncle: "Thank you, second aunt, uncle."
After sipping lightly, Zhan Yifan took Mint and left. After taking two steps, Zhan Yifan whispered: "The second aunt is my father's half-sister and is currently the president of the German branch. My uncle followed the second aunt.
In Germany, he held the position of general manager."
Mint raised his eyebrows, men are inferior to women? But it is common in such families. But he felt a little confused about Zhan Yifan's words of 'half-sister'. Could it be...?
"They have two sons. Neither of them came today, but from now on you will automatically stay away from them when you see them."
Mint felt strange when he heard Zhan Yifan's words: "I don't know them."
Zhan Yifan glanced at Bo Mint and said meaningfully: "You will know him when you see him."
Mint felt that it was strange. Before she thought about it, Zhan Yifan brought her to a couple. However, the couple were both foreigners. When Mint was thinking about who it was, Zhan Yifan pointed and introduced: "Three
Uncle, aunt, this is mint. Mint, this is third uncle and aunt."
Although Mint was surprised, he still hid his true emotions very skillfully. He perfectly concealed his surprise and suspicion. When he thought about his suspicion, he suddenly understood. He kept a decent smile and said to the foreign third uncle and aunt: "Uncle
, Hello aunt, it’s our first time meeting you, please take good care of me.”
"That's great, Yifan. This wife has achieved great results."
"Boxi, don't make things awkward for Mint. The ones Yifan chose are naturally good. I think this one is even better than Yaoyao!"
The third uncle and the third aunt were very young and looked only a few years older than Zhan Yifan. And Yaoyao? When Bo Min noticed the name and was still wondering who it was, Zhan Yifan had already pulled her by the hand.
The hand moved away in large strides.
After taking two steps, Zhan Yifan explained: "Percy Smith is my father's half-brother."
Mint looked up at Zhan Yifan's somewhat indifferent profile. He hesitated for a moment and swallowed his doubts. Half-mother, that is to say, after Yifan's grandfather passed away, his grandmother remarried? Remarrying is indeed nothing special.
But does Yifan care about it? He even lived with his grandfather and grandma
Does it mean that he cares about being in the bedroom where Nai once lived? Mint squeezed Zhan Yifan's hand tightly, looked outside and said softly: "Let's go out and get some fresh air?" Although he only met so many people.
, but he said that it was for them to get to know her, and she was not in a hurry to get to know them today.
Zhan Yifan took off his suit and put it on Mint's body, hugged her and said, "Let's go."
The two of them slipped out of the living room from an inconspicuous place and passed through from the right to the small greenhouse where they drank tea and chatted.
Mint sat down on the swing, pulled Zhan Yifan to sit beside her, smiled and asked casually: "Why don't you see grandma?"
Zhan Yifan glanced at Mint: "Bad baby, are you trying to test me on purpose?"
Mint blinked and tried to liven up the atmosphere: "No way! I'm really curious, where did grandma move to?"
It's a pity that the activity failed. Zhan Yifan sighed: "I bought a new house with her husband and children." She smoothed out the few strands of hair that fell on her neck and cheeks, and then continued to tell the complete story calmly.
He said slowly: "My grandfather passed away when my father was eighteen years old.
When she was three years old, she inherited the Zhan family through her own efforts, and her grandmother remarried. Her new husband lived in this house and even joined Zhan's company. When my father was thirty years old, Smith lost a large amount of the company's finances, and then took the
Grandma, take their children and leave."
Mint was a little unbelievable. How could grandma treat her father like this? How much pressure and disappointment did her father suffer at that time? After a pause, Mint asked softly: "Did you abandon dad and second aunt?" Actually, no need.
I asked, and I already know the answer. Dad will definitely save the company. If he doesn’t save the company, how will the Zhan family be like today?
"No, I took my second aunt with me and abandoned my father. My father and mother had just gotten married that year, and the Zhan family was facing an unprecedented economic crisis."
