Chapter 74 Father-in-lawLu Li and Jiang's father looked at each other with calm expressions, just like two good friends who had not seen each other for a long time.
Jiang Lianxue, who was standing in the stands, was so nervous that she was afraid that her father would turn against her.
Fortunately, the two of them just looked at each other calmly for a few seconds, and then looked away at the same time tacitly.
Father Jiang smiled and looked at everyone, beginning his opening remarks for the banquet.
They are all familiar clichés, but we cannot help but say them.
A few minutes later, the music started again, waiters pushed food carts into the banquet hall, and many guests started talking and laughing again, obviously more relaxed than before.
Or maybe it was just that the champagne was finally starting to get intoxicating.
Jiang Lianxue pulled her father down the stairs, walking quickly and impatiently.
Father Jiang, who was being pulled behind, said with a smile, "Slow down, slow down, are you in such a hurry to ask your dad to beat that kid?"
Hearing this, Jiang Lianxue immediately turned her head around with an angry expression, "Dad! I've only met one person I like in my life. If you kill me, I'll go complain to my mom!"
"Okay, I'll try my best."
Father Jiang said with a smile, but he sighed secretly in his heart.
You can know a person's face but not his heart. Because of love, my daughter can trust the man she likes infinitely.
But he is a father, and he cannot bear to see his daughter suffer even the slightest injustice.
He remembered taking a course on fraud, which talked about the impossible triangle of a man: handsome, rich, and loyal in love.
If a man possesses these three qualities at the same time, then he most likely has other intentions towards you, and you have fallen into a love scam.
Of course, this is not absolute. After all, Jiang's father believes that he possesses these three qualities.
He didn't care about Lu Li's appearance or financial situation, he only cared about whether Lu Li was loyal to Xiaoxue.
Seeing the father and daughter coming, Lu Li, who was originally planning to get a steak, gave up the idea and took the initiative to step forward to greet them.
For a moment, the conversation in the banquet hall became much quieter, and everyone looked at Lu Li intentionally or unintentionally.
From the moment Lu Li walked in, everyone was waiting for the show to begin.
The Jiang family’s internal disputes were truly the perfect side dish for the dinner party.
Father Jiang stopped about one meter away from Lu Li, put one hand in his trouser pocket and slowly stretched out the other hand.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Lu. I am Jiang Yunfeng."
Lu Li smiled and held out his hand, "Boss Jiang, we've met before."
At this moment, he had completely relaxed. He decided to make the best of it. He wanted to see what instructions Father Jiang had for him today.
Jiang Yunfeng released his hand and patted Lu Li on the shoulder. A bright smile suddenly appeared on his originally calm face. "Hahahaha, kid, the script you wrote is really interesting! Xiaoxue must have directed it!"
Jiang Lianxue, who was standing next to the two of them, coughed and said, "Dad! I am the CEO of an entertainment branch company after all. What's wrong with helping with the review?"
Jiang Yunfeng's smile remained on his face. "Once a daughter is married off, she is like spilled water. She hasn't even gotten married yet, but she can't be taken back. Hahaha."
Lu Li didn't know what to say for a moment. Normally, when his father-in-law said this, he would just smile and say yes.
My daughter has been taken away from me. If you dare to say anything more, just prepare to be beaten.
I heard that Uncle Jiang also practiced with Uncle Liu, so Lu Li felt that he would not be able to beat him.
Jiang Yunfeng released his hand from Lu Li's shoulder and turned to look at Jiang Lianxue, "Xiaoxue, go play with Ling'er and the others first. Xiao Lu and I have some conversation between men."
"Lu Li, if you are bullied, tell me and I will help you get back at justice!"
Jiang Yunfeng was so angry that he laughed, "Go away, little girl, you are becoming more and more capable now."
Jiang Lianxue stuck out her tongue and made a face with a smile. When she turned around, she instantly returned to her expressionless look and walked towards Lin Ling'er and the others. Lu Li and Jiang Yunfeng looked at her receding back at the same time without any action.
Seeing Jiang Lianxue chatting with people of the same age, Jiang Yunfeng turned his head and sighed.
"Alas, in the blink of an eye, she has grown so big."
Lu Li also turned his head and said, "Based on my experience in watching movies, conversations that start with this sentence usually don't go very well."
"Hahaha, you're really funny. Let me change my words." Jiang Yunfeng laughed so hard that he almost fell backwards. "Alas, in the blink of an eye, I'm already this old."
Lu Li couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. It was even worse than the previous sentence.
But this time he held back from complaining, "Uncle Jiang, any instructions?"
"It's not really an instruction, it's just a warning."
Jiang Yunfeng always had a smiling face, but his words were as sharp as swords.
Lu Li knew very well that the man in front of him who was smiling the whole time was very good at hiding his true emotions. Such people were often dangerous because they were unpredictable.
When they first met, Lu Li didn't know Jiang Yunfeng's identity. During the entire contract negotiation process, the other party did not show any emotional fluctuations.
Be able to remain calm when Mount Tai collapses in front of you, and remain calm when a tiger approaches from behind.
Jiang Yunfeng is a powerful character that Lu Li has never faced before.
"Uncle Jiang, please speak."
"It's very simple, just be nice to my daughter. I just want her to be happy, that's all." Jiang Yunfeng paused, "As for other things, I don't care. No matter what it is."
"Why am I not?"
Lu Li spoke softly, meeting Jiang Yunfeng's gaze without avoiding it at all.
After the two of them stared at each other in silence for a few seconds, Jiang Yunfeng suddenly smiled, "You are the second person I have ever met who is willing to look me in the eye."
"Hmm? The last one was Jiang Lianxue?"
"It's not her. That little girl would rather stare at Ultraman's two salted duck eggs than look at an old man like me."
"Well... that's her style."
"The first person who was willing to look me in the eye was my ex-wife. She loved looking into my eyes and said that they contained the most beautiful ocean in the world."
"Uncle... that's a bit corny..."
Lu Li turned his head away with an embarrassed expression. He finally knew who Jiang Lianxue inherited her abstract talent from. How come Uncle Jiang could occasionally come up with a few abstract quotes?
Jiang Yunfeng smiled and looked at Jiang Lianxue in the distance, "It's a pity that I will never hear these words again. Not long after giving birth to Xiaoxue, she passed away."
Lu Li was very shocked, "What! Lianxue she..."
"Yeah." Jiang Yunfeng looked a little sad. "She likes to immerse herself in her own little world. She always believes that her mother has turned into the wind to accompany her, so she often likes to whisper in the wind. That is her way of conveying her love to the one she loves in another world."
"So she likes the merry-go-round and lying on a black-sailed boat in the evening breeze?"
"It seems that she has already brought you to meet her parents in advance."
Lu Li was stunned, and the scene of that night flashed through his mind.
"We will always be together."
Across time and space, across life and death.
The evening breeze that night was so gentle.
