Endless Fall

   Chapter 229 They are not qualified

  Lin Jiao had never dealt with the Song family and his wife, but had heard of their behavior.

   "Then you will pick me up at nine o'clock." She turned sideways and stared at the disturbing face.

   Pei Zhi responded: "Okay." He drove in the direction of the vegetable market: "Have you prepared a gift?"

   "No." Lin Jiao took out a bottle of juice from the storage box and took two sips: "I'll buy it tomorrow afternoon."

   "So casual?"

   "My relationship with Song Zhen is not very good."

   Pei Zhi pinched her face with his fingers, and his long and narrow eyes flashed a smile: "But you represent the Lin family."

   After he reminded her like this, she remembered that Lin Hongyuan and the Song family met, and this time she was not the only one invited.

   "I'll ask." She called Lin Hongyuan, and when she heard that they were not going, she said, "Dad, what do you think I should give?"

   "Calligraphy and painting or vases?" He always gave these two every time: "You come back tomorrow to choose, there are some left in the warehouse."

   "Also." She just didn't bother to think about it.

  Lin Jiao picked the cheapest calligraphy and painting from the warehouse the next day and headed to the wedding venue.

   She and Pei Yilan met at the door and walked side by side to the simple and elegant hall.

  Palace-style chandeliers hang in the hall, Persian carpets are covered as far as the eye can see, and there are several rose petals around.

   The fragrance is fragrant, and the soup is staggered.

   The guests who came together carried gifts to congratulate the Song and Yuan families, either flattering or flattering, or having sincere or hypocritical conversations.

  Lin Jiao didn't mean to move up.

   She took the wine glass that Pei Yilan handed over, her eyes swept over several figures, and finally stopped at the position next to the wine table.

   "Song Zhen." They stepped forward slowly and sent him a congratulatory gift: "Happy engagement."

   "Thank you." Song Zhen's lips curled slightly.

   He was wearing a black suit and his hair was carefully groomed, making him a little poised: "Sister Jiao, Uncle Lin and the others didn't come?"

   "They can't come because of something." Lin Jiao's eyes had a faint smile: "Where's your fiancee?"

   "I don't know where to go."

   "Brother Zhen." A voice pretending to be gentle came from his right side: "Who are these two?"

  Yuantong looked at them secretly, his eyes stayed on Lin Jiao's face for a long time, as if he was thinking about something.

   Song Zhen, who was being held by her, frowned slightly.

   He suppressed his impatience and returned to his original expression to introduce the three of them to each other.

   "Your surname is Pei?" Yuan Tong then looked away, his eyes flickering slightly: "That Pei family in the east of the city?"

   Pei Yilan shook her head: "No."

   "Well." Her expression changed slightly, and her tone was not as good as before: "Brother Zhen, my friend is still waiting for me over there."

  Song Zhen understood what she meant.

   He picked up a glass of red wine from the table, pointed them to the lounge area, and was led away.

   "Beautiful." Pei Yilan stared at his back and lowered her voice: "His fiancee is too powerful."

   "I see." Lin Jiao found an empty sofa, flicked the corner of her skirt and sat down: "Fortunately they don't know you."

  The Pei family protects her very well.

   Except for the family and friends who are particularly familiar, no one else knows about her situation.

   has kept her in a lot of trouble for a long time.

   "They're not qualified either." Pei Yilan hated nothing more than snobbery.

   She glanced at the flattering smiles that the Song family couple showed to others, and said, "It's not that the family does not enter the house."

  Lin Jiao chuckled: "Indeed."

   She sat casually with her back against the sofa, no matter how noisy the surroundings were, she was not affected in the slightest.

   or because of this, it attracted the attention of many people.

   Yuantong's brother Yuan Teng is one of them.

   He inquired about Yuantong, and when he learned that she was the daughter of the Lin family, he showed an inevitable smile.

   "Ms. Lin." Before the other men approached to strike up a conversation, he approached the sofa in three or two steps: "Can we meet?"

  His warm exterior hides greed, especially his blatant eyes, which are simply disgusting.

  Lin Jiao bluntly refused: "No." She couldn't stand his eyes, her eyebrows froze.

  She is like a rose with thorns, giving Yuan Teng a great challenge, so she did not show a displeased expression when she was rejected.

   He sat down at the other end: "I heard Yuan Tong say, you and my brother-in-law have known each other for a long time?"

"how?"

   "Ask, do you have a boyfriend?"

  Lin Jiao put her left hand between her knees: "Yes."

   The fine diamonds on her ring reflected a shallow light, and Yuan Teng saw it clearly at a glance.

   But he didn't mean to give up. After all, it was not the first time for him to do this kind of thing.

   "Miss Lin, can you dance?" He listened to the music in his ear, trying to get closer to her.

"Won't."

   "Then I teach you?"

   Pei Yilan: "Are you busy?" She put down the cup with a slap: "Master Yuan, I advise you not to ask for trouble."

   The title of 'Yuan Dashao', which she insisted on, was mixed with ridicule to him, making it particularly harsh.

   Yuan Teng's face changed slightly.

   He thought that they were friends and it was not easy for him to suffer. He said shamelessly: "If she wants me to suffer, I will be happy."

   "Do you know how to write the word 'cheap'?" Pei Yilan rudely replied.

   The moment the atmosphere became tense, Gu Quan sat calmly beside Lin Jiao with his wine glass in his hand.

   As if he hadn't seen Yuan Teng, he stared sideways at those sullen eyes: "Jiaojiao, when did you arrive?"

   "It's been a while."

"Have you had your dinner?"

  Lin Jiao calmed down: "Well." She deliberately ignored Yuan Teng and didn't want to waste her words: "Why didn't you go to Song Zhen?"

   "Just had two drinks with him."

   "Brother Quan." Yuan Teng swallowed that breath, trying to find a sense of existence: "You didn't bring a girlfriend?"

"I am single."

   "Do you want my brother to introduce you to one?"

   "No." Gu Quan clinked glasses with Lin Jiao and the others, and talked about topics he couldn't participate in: "I saw Xiao Hua in the afternoon."

   It's been a long time since I heard the news of Xiaohua, but Lin Jiao's appearance can clearly emerge in Lin Jiao's mind.

   She asked with concern: "How is it now?"

   "I gained a lot of weight." His eyebrows smirked: "They were fighting when I passed by."

   "Xiao Bai was beaten again?"

   "Well, it's used to being beaten."

   "Who is Xiaohua Xiaobai?" Pei Yilan heard the name very familiar, but couldn't remember it.

  Gu Quan: "The cat we used to feed." His tone was natural: "Jiaojiao should have told you."

   "You even bought them canned cat food." Lin Jiao then reminded, trying to awaken her memory: "Do you remember?"

   "I remember it!" Pei Yilan fed her several times when she went to Lufu Bay to accompany her: "Have they given birth to cubs now?"

   "I heard from the aunt next door that Xiaobai is with the cat raised by the supermarket owner."

   "So Xiaohua was abandoned?"

   "Not necessarily." Lin Jiao took a sip of red wine: "I think Xiaobai likes Xiaohua, but the supermarket should only be a friend."
