Chapter 265 Drunk
At the dinner table, Ye Qing'an was still drinking with Fu Linchuan. After the old man drank two cups, he couldn't bear it anymore and switched to tea. Ye Tingyun sat on the side, listening and taking care of the old man and the guests, occasionally reminding them when they talked about something they couldn't remember clearly.
Ye Xi and Ye Liuxi had already eaten and left the table. They sat on the guest sofa with their backs facing them and pretended to watch TV.
"Do you really like him?" Ye Liuxi glanced behind him and asked in a low voice.
Ye Xi glanced at him: "What, is there a problem?"
Ye Liuxi shook his head: "It's just that I didn't see it very clearly."
Ye Xi thought to herself: It’s good that she didn’t notice it, she was the one who lied in the first place. But even Ye Liuxi said so, it seems her acting skills need to be improved.
Just as he was thinking about it, Ye Liuxi continued, "But I can see that he likes you."
Ye Xi: "?"
Ye Liuxi recalled Fu Linchuan's performance on the way in: "I guess it's an understatement to say he likes you. His eyes are glued to you all the time, and when he looks at you, it's as if he wants to eat you up."
Ye Xi: “.”
Ye Xi: “Is it that scary?” Why didn’t she see that?
She turned her head to look in the direction of the dining table, and Fu Linchuan happened to be drinking the wine in his glass and looking over here. That deep look was like boiling water scalding her, and she immediately turned back in panic.
"How is it?" Ye Liuxi came over, "Am I right?"
After Ye Xi calmed down, he turned back and took another look. This time, Fu Linchuan was talking to the old man with a humble smile on his face.
Illusion?
After all, Fu Linchuan's acting is so good, and they are about to get engaged. It is normal for people with Fu Linchuan's personality to have a possessive desire for something that is about to belong to him.
However, what Ye Liuxi said was not completely unreasonable.
Since Fu Linchuan proposed a marriage to her, Ye Xi has reviewed this relationship more than once. For her, the benefits are definitely greater than the disadvantages, but for Fu Linchuan, she always feels that he has not gained much. It's not that there is no benefit, but that, with his conditions, he can actually achieve the effect he wants without a marriage.
Suppose now in his cooperation, the support of the He family and the Ye family each accounted for 50%. Is it not safe to rely only on the He family who was on good terms with him? Then find a few more families, and let the Ye, Jin, and Gu each give 20%, or even not even 20%. Judging from the attitude of those families towards him at the He family's wedding banquet, this is completely feasible.
Ye Xi used absolute rationality and the extreme interests of a businessman to deduce many times, but could only come up with one answer: Fu Linchuan had an unreasonable preference for the Ye family, and if it were to be explained using Ye Liuxi's statement, it would actually be completely reasonable!
"But Fu Linchuan has only met me a few times? Do you think this is right?"
Ye Liuxi is obviously a single mother, but relying on the fact that she has acted in several idol dramas, she puts on an experienced look in front of Ye Xi: "No, no, no, love is something that cannot be analyzed with common sense. Love is inherently irrational. Haven't you heard of love at first sight? Some people don't need to meet many times or have much communication. As long as they fall in love at a certain moment, love will flow like a tide, unstoppable."
Ye Xi gave him a strange look, obviously not believing it, but she had no other military advisor after all, so although she felt it was strange, she was trying to accept it.
If that's the case.
That.
That would be great! !
Ye Xi knew from the beginning that the strength of the Ye family and the Fu family was not equal. If they only relied on interests, when Fu Linchuan quickly invaded the E country market and the Ye family could no longer bring benefits, would the Fu-Ye marriage alliance continue? Would the Ye family and she be used up and thrown away?
But if Fu Linchuan really likes her, it will be different. People are easily driven by emotions and make irrational decisions. And with Fu Linchuan's personality, even if he doesn't like her anymore in the future, he will give her enough compensation instead of parting ways coldly.
Seize the opportunity!
After making up his mind, Ye Xi continued to pay attention to the situation at the dinner table. The old man stopped drinking. It was already his usual lunch break time. He yawned and left the table with the help of the housekeeper. Not long after, Ye Qingan also looked at his watch and left. Only Ye Tingyun and Fu Linchuan were left at the table.
Ye Tingyun was also a little overwhelmed, but now that the elders were not around, he should maintain the host family's appearance. When he was about to continue drinking with Fu Linchuan, Ye Xi ran over.
Like a child who was making trouble for no reason, she ran over and grabbed Fu Linchuan's arm to take him away. Facing Ye Tingyun's obstruction, she complained unhappily: "Hey, brother~ You have been monopolizing him for a long time, it's time to give him back to me, right?"
Fu Linchuan also stood up reluctantly, but his eyes were still on Ye Tingyun, waiting politely for someone to speak.
After Ye Tingyun pretended to stop him, he said helplessly, "Forget it, forget it. Go ahead, but you must entertain Mr. Fu well and don't make trouble."
Ye Xi nodded quickly, then pulled Fu Linchuan upstairs and went straight to her bedroom.
Only after closing the door did Ye Xi breathe a sigh of relief. She had thought that there would be some obstacles, but it was unexpectedly so smooth. However, she also guessed that Ye Tingyun might not want to sit down anymore. Her move was just to help him out, so it would be strange if he would stop her.
Thinking of his grandfather, uncle, and brother, who took turns to drink, and Fu Linchuan being persuaded to drink so much but still not falling down, Ye Xi was also surprised at his alcohol tolerance.
"My brother is the one who can drink the most in our family. I didn't expect you would even drink him." Ye Xi said as he turned around to look at Fu Linchuan, but he couldn't help but paused.
Fu Linchuan sat beside her bed, looking straight at her.
Ye Xi walked closer to him and saw that his face was a little red, and the look in his eyes when he looked at her did not seem to be very clear.
Maybe this person was already drunk a long time ago, but he just has good drinking control and doesn't make any noise or trouble when drunk. Even if others ask him to continue drinking, he will continue drinking obediently, so that no one can notice anything unusual.
After Ye Xi felt helpless, she couldn't help but smile. Her first thought was to take a few photos. When taking photos, Fu Linchuan was motionless, like a professional model.
After taking the photo, she put her phone aside, walked over to Fu Linchuan, bent down, looked at his expression carefully, then stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes: "Fu Linchuan, what number is this?"
There was no reaction the first time, and after shaking a few times, Fu Linchuan grabbed her hand, held it down with both hands to prevent her from moving, and then his eyes became even more blurred.
Ye Xi knew that this was the aftereffect of the attack and Fu Linchuan would become less and less clear-headed.
She leaned closer and could clearly smell the alcohol on him: "What do you want to do now?"
