False Court
Chapter 1025 The Ways of the World
His composed gaze swept across the remaining Lin family members present.
Those who had initially intended to slip away also didn't dare to leave when they met Lin Yaotian's eyes.
However, even so, they were restless and uneasy, as if sitting on a bed of needles, completely distracted.
It was a joke to have a heavily indebted person like Su Mo sitting here.
If they were to get involved with him in any way, it would be a huge problem.
Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue naturally noticed this unusual situation. Qiancheng Xue was worried that Su Mo would be upset, so she reached out under the table and held his hand tightly.
She used her actions to tell Su Mo that it was okay, no matter what happened, she would stand by his side.
Su Mo gave Qiancheng Xue a smile, not taking their reactions to heart.
Lin Hai and Lin Xiaoyu also noticed the departure of the others at this time. Lin Hai also felt it was a bit too much. Of course, he knew the reason, wasn't it just because Su Mo was heavily in debt?
The problem was, if it hadn't been for Su Mo's heroic efforts, everyone would have been in danger.
Lin Xiaoyu unceremoniously said in a cold voice, "A bunch of snobs."
As a result, the atmosphere became even stranger, and no one spoke for a moment.
Lin Yaotian also frowned, of course, not because he disliked Su Mo's heavy debt, but because he was thinking about how Su Mo was going to deal with owing so much money. He was also somewhat worried about Su Mo from the bottom of his heart.
He planned to have a good talk with Su Mo after the banquet to see if there was a solution.
Even if there really was no way, he would try his best to give him some support.
But thinking of this, Lin Yaotian's gaze fell on Xiao Xun. He was a little worried about Xiao Xun's attitude. Xiao Xun had always been very unfriendly to Qiancheng Xue.
Now that Su Mo was also facing these issues, it was likely that Xiao Xun would give them a hard time.
If it was serious, it was not impossible for her to strongly oppose them being together.
But an unexpected scene occurred, Xiao Xun actually got up, carrying a plate of fruit and pastries, walked to Qiancheng Xue and Su Mo's side, and said with a concerned look.
"Are you two hungry? This kind of banquet takes a while to start, do you want to eat some fruit and pastries to fill your stomachs, so as not to hurt your stomachs when drinking later?"
"No need, thank you, Mother."
Qiancheng Xue and Su Mo replied quickly.
"Also, haven't you been eating properly lately? You look thinner, come home more often when you have time."
Xiao Xun couldn't help but touch Su Mo's cheek, and said with some heartache.
"Okay."
Su Mo nodded.
Lin Yaotian looked at this scene, and even he, who was always calm and composed, was confused.
He knew Xiao Xun's personality the best.
It felt like she had become a different person, treating Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue so well, so well that it was a bit outrageous.
But no matter how shocked Lin Yaotian was, he was very calm and didn't ask, after all, this was a good thing.
Lin Xiaoyu, seeing Xiao Xun caring so much about Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue, was also sulking, completely unable to understand.
At this time, Xiao Xun seemed to think of something, so she pulled Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue and said.
"You two come with me."
"Uh, okay."
Although Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue were confused, they still got up very cooperatively.
Xiao Xun led Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue towards the lounge on the edge of the hall.
Lin Yaotian frowned slightly when he saw this scene, wondering if Xiao Xun was deliberately pretending to be so enthusiastic to them, but in fact, wanted to pull them into the lounge.
To warn them one by one?
Thinking of this, Lin Yaotian's expression changed for a while, and he wanted to follow to see what was happening.
Just then, a hearty laugh came.
"Brother Lin!"
Ye Quan walked over with Ye Tian and others.
"You're here too."
Lin Yaotian had no choice but to greet them first.
"Haha, that's right, this is such a good opportunity to go to Gushen Star, of course, we can't miss us. There are so many empty seats, our two families haven't eaten together for a long time, how about we eat together?"
Ye Quan said with a smile.
"Sure."
Lin Yaotian couldn't refuse.
As a result, as soon as Ye Quan and others took their seats, Xiao Qi, Xiao Nan, and others also came over.
"Brother Lin, haha."
Xiao Nan laughed and greeted.
...
Inside the lounge, Xiao Xun pulled Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue in.
She smiled and looked at the two, and asked.
"When are you two planning to get married? I'm still waiting to hold a grandchild."
Qiancheng Xue's face turned red when she heard this.
Su Mo couldn't help but cough, and then smiled bitterly: "Mother, we are still young, let's wait a little longer, we'll talk about it when the time is right."
"Okay, you two can get married whenever you want, I won't care about that. But how about having a baby first? While I'm still able to move around, I can help you take care of the baby."
Xiao Xun replied very considerately.
"Cough cough, no hurry. Thank you, Mother."
Su Mo said awkwardly.
At this time, Xiao Xun suddenly raised her hand, took off a emerald green gemstone bracelet from her right hand, and then took Qiancheng Xue's left hand and put it on her.
"Mother, what is this?"
Qiancheng Xue was also very surprised and didn't know what to do for a while.
"This was passed down to me by my mother, and now I pass it on to you. Although it's not very valuable, the quality is still good, and it has a good commemorative meaning, wear it well."
Xiao Xun said softly to Qiancheng Xue.
"But...."
Qiancheng Xue didn't know what to say for a while.
"Accept it."
Su Mo smiled and persuaded from the side.
"Okay, thank you, Mother."
Qiancheng Xue no longer refused, she was still very happy in her heart.
At this time, Xiao Xun turned her head and instructed Su Mo: "Su Mo, you must treat Qiancheng Xue well in the future, don't quarrel."
"I will."
Su Mo replied quickly.
"Okay, the banquet should be starting soon, let's go back."
After Xiao Xun finished instructing, she said with satisfaction.
"Okay!"
Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue nodded.
Soon, the three of them came out of the lounge and walked towards the table.
As a result, when they returned to the table, they found that the originally empty table was already full of people.
The Ye family and Xiao family had all taken their seats.
"Father, Eldest Brother, Eldest Sister-in-law."
Xiao Xun greeted with surprise.
"Xun'er, where did you go? Come and sit here with me."
A fashionable and elegant noblewoman, with a smiling face, invited Xiao Xun to sit down.
At this time, Ye Quan, Xiao Qi, and others, who were chatting very happily, subconsciously turned their heads to look over.
As a result, when they saw Su Mo, the smiles on their faces suddenly froze.
The scene fell silent again, and everyone's expressions were a little unnatural.
Lin Yaotian also quickly said to Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue: "What are you still standing there for? Take your seats, the banquet is about to begin."
"Okay."
Su Mo and Qiancheng Xue sat down.
