the knife of love

Chapter 85 Birthday party, her problem
The car stopped at the parking lot of the General's Mansion, Tang Jingcheng got out of the car, and sure enough, he saw Lao Mai was already waiting for her at the door, but there was Ye Tan standing behind him.

"Miss Tang..." Lao Mai greeted her politely, seeing her long hair tied up, bright makeup, peacock blue cloak and bright red long skirt, this outfit is really attractive.

"The dress is beautiful."

"Thank you." Tang Jingcheng smiled enchantingly.

Ye Tan snorted from behind: "Beautiful is beautiful, but today is Brother Jiu's birthday party for Sister Qingxiao, isn't it a little too much for you to dress like this?"

"Really?" Tang Jingcheng wasn't angry at all, "But you guessed right, that's what I want." With a flick of her eye, she took off the peacock blue cloak she was wearing.

In front of him was Tang Jingcheng's white and tender back and slender waist.

Lao Mai only felt his scalp numb and his mouth felt uncomfortable, but Tang Jingcheng put the cloak in Lao Mai's hands: "Doctor Mai, I'm sorry."

Lao Mai didn't dare to look at her, so he could only hold the cloak for her, and after a pause, he said, "Go in, almost everyone is here."

"Okay." Tang Jingcheng twisted his body and walked to the front.

Ye Tan followed behind and scolded her bare back: "What, why are you so shameless?"

"You should accumulate some morals, this woman is not a good master!"

"..."

The General’s Mansion sounds like a weird name, but it’s actually a club-style restaurant. Although it’s under the name of Jiurongtai, it’s been managed by a professional restaurant team since its opening, so everything from the concierge to the dishes is top-notch.

Lou Qingxiao's birthday party this time was organized by Ye Tan, but how to arrange it is basically Lou Qingxiao's own idea.

The birthday party was not too extravagant. Although the entire General's Mansion was closed that night, because there were not many guests present, the main event venue was only a hall of about 200 square meters.

The banquet adopts a well-regulated western style buffet.

Lou Qingxiao didn't have many friends these years, and her former colleagues and alumni had already dispersed after three years of no contact. For this birthday, most of them invited some friends and the principals of Jiurongtai near Yunling.

The principals were all old people from Jiurongtai, and according to their seniority, Guan Lue would call them uncles.

These uncles naturally know Lou Qingxiao, they know that she has been with Guan Lue for many years, and the people below have always heard that they are about to get married, but the relationship between the two has always been low-key, but this time Guan Lue celebrated her birthday with great fanfare. There was a banquet, and all the people from the gang were invited, and they all speculated about what was going on.

Lao Mai led Tang Jingcheng into the banquet hall. Maybe she was too high-profile that night. As soon as she stepped in, she felt countless hot eyes shooting towards her.

In addition, she went to Chi Feng's memorial service last time, and most of the people present knew her and knew that she had an affair with Guan Lue.

This is where it gets interesting.

Guan Jiu held a birthday party for Lou Qingxiao, but this woman raised outside went to the party in a high-profile manner, did she come here to spoil the scene?

Everyone raised their glasses and waited for a good show.

Unexpectedly, Lou Qingxiao, who had been receiving guests in the crowd, suddenly shouted warmly: "Xiao Tang... this way... Ninth brother, Xiao Tang is here, push me over quickly."

This opening remark really surprised many people present, and even Ye Tan couldn't get used to it for a while.

What's going on here?

From this posture, it feels like Lou Qingxiao is very familiar with that woman.

"Old Mai, when did the two of them become so intimate?" Ye Tan followed behind Tang Jingcheng, tugged on Lao Mai's sleeve and asked secretly.

Lao Mai grinned, but his eyes stayed on Guan Lue not far away.

Guan Lue remained the same, calmly pushing Lou Qingxiao to Tang Jingcheng.

"coming?"

"coming."

"The dress is beautiful."

"I know, but it's not the one you sent."

"Why don't you wear the one I gave you?"

"The size of yours is not right, your chest is too tight." Tang Jingcheng looked straight at Guan Lue without squinting, and curled his red lips, "You know, thanks to you recently, I The boobs have gone up at least a size."

"..."

"..."

The audience suddenly fell silent, until Ye Tan viciously popped out a few words from behind his teeth: "Smelly shameless!"

Tang Jingcheng heard it, but she didn't care, her fingers were still playing with her earlobe, and there was an earring on the earlobe, and the purple jade made her face even more enchanting.

The blood pressure of the uncles next to him soared, and they immediately took a sip of wine to suppress the shock.

Lao Mai looked at Guan Lue playfully, depending on how he would deal with it.

Tang Jingcheng's words were a blatant provocation, thinking that Guan Lue would get angry, but he just raised his lips slightly, Ru Mo's eyes fixed on Tang Jingcheng's burning eyes, and then began to explain one by one in front of everyone. Buttons on suits.

"Ninth Brother..." Lou Qingxiao couldn't hold back anymore.

Guan Lue still didn't make a sound, unbuttoned it slowly, took off his suit and wrapped it around Tang Jingcheng's shoulders, then turned around: "Ye Zi, announce the opening of the banquet!"

For a while, the atmosphere in the banquet hall relaxed a little, the waiters started to move around, the guests scattered around, Guan Lue pushed Lou Qingxiao to leave, Tang Jingcheng enjoyed himself, and went to find a drink with a Kun bag.

Ye Tan stared at Tang Jingcheng, who was walking through the crowd, wearing Guan Lue's suit, with a graceful back.

"Old Mai, why do you think there is such a shameless woman?"

"She's not shameless, she's just confident!"

……

In the first half of the banquet, Guan Lue had to take care of Lou Qingxiao, who was physically handicapped, and almost kept her with her, toasting and chatting with the guests.

Lou Qingxiao wore a prosthetic leg and a royal blue skirt that covered her toes, sitting in a wheelchair like an ordinary person.

The makeup is also meticulously modified. She was a beauty embryo in the alley when she was a child, and she was naturally radiant after a little dressing up, so when she was holding a wine glass with Guan Lue, the two looked very well-matched.

Those uncles in Jiurong Terrace are also more optimistic about Lou Qingxiao. After all, she looks dignified and beautiful, and she does things well. In comparison, Tang Jingcheng is a little frivolous, especially in terms of her expression and clothes today, it really doesn't suit her. When Guan Lue's main wife.

"I heard that woman was married before?"

"Yeah, I got the certificate from someone, and the man died before the banquet."

"That's right, that's right, I've also heard that after her man's death, her mistress raised outside came to her house to make a fuss about dividing up the property. Later, the mistress also died somehow. It was even on the news at the time."

"Well, Guan Jiu also acted as an alibi for her in court. It's ridiculous. The head of Jiurongtai actually testified in court for a dubious woman. This matter has spread in the Tao, and it's just a joke for others. !"

"Hey, keep your voice down, that woman is right behind!"

"What are you afraid of? It doesn't matter if you heard it. Didn't you see her shameless look just now? It was reported in the news before that she seemed to be mentally ill. The doctor issued a certificate, and it was quite serious..."

The uncles and the "wives" brought together, Tang Jingcheng became the topic of everyone's discussion that night.

However, the parties were singled out.

Guan Lue never cared about him, he was always by Lou Qingxiao's side, but Tang Jingcheng didn't care about it at all.

Her heart is very small and cannot tolerate any impurities, but it is also very large and can tolerate many things that are unbearable in the eyes of others.

It was not the first time for her to participate in this kind of boring banquet. Although she had not attended many similar receptions in the industry in the past, she had developed the ability to make jokes.

She doesn't like to communicate with people, so she talks alone.

She didn't like to drink with others, so she drank alone.

Fortunately, the wine at the banquet was not bad, strong enough, and she hadn't drank it for a long time, and she felt refreshed after a few glasses.

When I was drinking hard, all the lights in the banquet hall suddenly went out, the melody of the happy birthday song sounded in the sound system, and two waiters came out of the backstage pushing the cake.

All of a sudden, the crowd rushed to the front of the stage.

Guan Lue pushed Lou Qingxiao to the front of the cake, lit candles, and made a wish... He held Lou Qingxiao and cut the first knife on the cake amidst the blessings of the guests.

The whole audience cheered, the lights came on, and Tang Jingcheng saw Guan Lue's smiling eyes in the shadow of drinking, at this moment, he only had the woman in the wheelchair in his eyes.

"Everyone..." Someone suddenly came to the stage and clapped their hands, "Please be quiet, today is Miss Lou's 28th birthday, Brother Jiu specially organized this birthday party for Miss Lou, taking advantage of so many people present today, Miss Lou has something to do Announce it publicly."

While talking on the stage, the waiter has already pushed down the cake and cut it into small pieces for everyone.

Tang Jingcheng squeezed in front of the crowd with a wine glass in one hand and a small dish of cake in the other.

Lou Qingxiao turned the wheelchair around in front of everyone, facing Guan Lue.

"Ninth brother, thank you for organizing such a grand birthday for me, and thank you for accompanying me through the darkest days of my life in the past three years. Do you remember today last year? You accompanied me to make a birthday wish, the first I proposed to me for the second time, but I refused, because I felt that I was not worthy of you, and I didn't want to drag you down, but I regretted it after the incident. It is not easy to be happy with two people, and it is not easy to be with the person you love. A year has passed, and today is my 28th birthday. I want to ask in front of everyone, is last year’s marriage proposal still worth it? Do you still count on the promise you made to me back then?”

Everyone present sighed, no one expected that Lou Qingxiao would raise this question at the birthday party.

Including Guan Lue, he didn't expect it, but his emotions have always been restrained better, and his face has not changed much.

"Ninth Brother..." Ye Tan was the most impatient, and shouted from behind.

Guan slightly smiled, squatted in front of the wheelchair, pinched Lou Qingxiao's face lightly, and took her to his shoulders.

"Actually, you don't need to ask me this question on this occasion. Last year's proposal counts, and I will fulfill the promise I made before!"

This is the recognition of Lou Qingxiao's position in front of everyone, and he admits this woman.

Lou Qingxiao was shocked for a moment, her chin rested on Guan Lue's shoulder for a long time before she came back to her senses.

Did he agree?

Did you agree like that?

"Ninth brother..." Tears flowed down, and everyone else was moved when they saw it.

What a wonderful thing when lovers finally get married.

Tang Jingcheng stood behind the crowd, raised his glass to drink the wine alone, took a bite of the cake, and his mouth felt sweet and greasy...

She didn't say goodbye to anyone and walked out of the general's mansion.

It's really cold outside, she shrank her neck and walked endlessly for a long way.

"Hello, who is it?" She asked directly without looking at the caller ID.

There was a pause on the other end of the phone for half a second.

"Hi, I'm Su Jue..."
