The Chamber of Commerce meeting ended at 10:00 PM. 。The farewell banquet had a bit of alcohol in it, so I didn't drive myself. 。The driver had been waiting outside the clubhouse for a while. When he saw him come out, he quickly opened the back door of the car. 。At the banquet, Ci Wan sat down with a graceful curve. Her long fingers idly tugged at her tie. 。For a moment, he waved his hand. The driver would start the car and it drove out of the club, slowly cruising along the main road. 。The lights of Kyoto Castle are dazzling, and the city is bustling. 。The banquet guest stood tall, leaning against the back of his car seat, his finger tracing along his high nose bridge with a tapping rhythm. His thoughts seemed to drift... 。He returned to the villa after the banquet, came out of the shower, and saw a message from his grandfather on his phone. 。 A string of phone numbers 。Note name: Wen RuanThis is He Lao Ye's 'kind' reminder:[He Yan Ci, you all know how I get along with Old Master Wen] 。After you meet Wen Ruan, you must be honest and sincere in your relationship! Don't even try to say anything outlandish and make her angry. 。Wen Ruan was frail since childhood. Your grandfather Wen went to great lengths to raise you to this appearance, so don't talk nonsense like that. 。Flowers in the greenhouse? Not at all. 。The farewell banquet, I still remember vaguely, a little girl many years ago ran after him, running faster than anyone else, her small face flushed red from coughing. 。A pair of round eyes were coughed red, like rabbit's eyes, pitiful. 。She cries just from a light tap, shouts "Ouch!", wants to be comforted, and rolls her eyes at any harsh words. 。very well 。short of breath, still talking a lot, chattering away 。In summary, Didi a little girl <<< 。 Ge Yanci lightly tapped his forehead with his fist: "Grandpa, you've learned to send messages now?" “Is that the important part?” He wouldn’t not know how to find someone to send it? Ge Yanci typed with his finger: “A blind date?” “What kind of blind date, you two are already set in stone ” 。As a man, you are in charge of... 。"...."Farewell Toast at the Banquet 。Sometimes, news from Old Master He arrived again:[Warm Nuan's likes and dislikes, you look at a little ...] 。Don't think this is going overboard, gentlemen taking care of their grooming is a given. 。Here is the translated text: "“......” Farewell Toast at the Celebration Banquet " Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!。Seeing the document sent by Old Master He, Ye Jian didn't feel any displeasure. After all, coming from a sheltered upbringing as a young lady, she was bound to be different from ordinary people, with unique preferences and aversions being quite normal. 。When he opened the document for the banquet, it wasn't as long as he had imagined. 。Very concise and to the point. 。Enjoys quietness, likes to drink white tea 。How about: playing chess, reading books 。Avoid:* Crowded places* Places with poor air circulation* Sweet foods; especially chocolate 。Allergies: dust, pollen 。After reading the farewell banquet speech, he let out a light chuckle. It was indeed concise, but each item was a difficult task. 。Time passed by every second. After finishing his work, He Yan excused himself from the banquet and supported his forehead with both hands. 。After a moment of silence, he took off his glasses, looking somewhat tired. He rubbed his temples, his eyebrows sweeping across the phone on the table beside him. 。Glanced at my phone, it was 11:10. 。At this point, I don't know if that Miss has gone to sleep yet. 。This thing has no task ID, tomorrow his grandfather will find trouble with him again. 。The banquet was over, and a frown settled on her brow. 。It was too late, and He Yan didn't choose to call. Instead, he sent a text message. 。Grandfather wants us to meet first. 。Let me know when you're available, and I'll have my assistant schedule it. 。---Toast at a Banquet--- 。Wen Ruan has the habit of reading before bed. She received a short message from He Yan, and she is currently reading. 。Upon receiving this text message, I was momentarily stunned and my mind drifted back to some old memories. 。Toast Speech -- For the Fiance Agreed Upon During Childhood 。Wen Ruan's memory of He Yan Ci's farewell banquet was still stuck before she was ten years old. Many memories were hazy and there wasn't a deep impression. 。The only impression I have is that He Yan didn't like leaving the banquet. 。Wen Ruan thought that she would never have any intersection with this nominal fiancé in her entire life. 。Several months ago, grandpa collapsed completely at a private estate in Russia. He absolutely refused treatment abroad, saying that even in his final moments, he wanted to return to his homeland. 。Family members respected Old Master Wen's opinion, and after a week, Old Master Wen showed slight improvement and was transferred to Kyoto's best hospital. 。As for the scandalous betrothal between Wen Ruan and He Yan Ci from years ago, both families tacitly avoided mentioning it, as if they were waiting for time to resolve it. 。Just as Old Master Wen fell seriously ill, Old Master He came to the hospital to visit his old friend. When the old fellows met, Wen Ruan and He Yanci's childhood verbal engagement unexpectedly became a topic of discussion. 。The two families' marriage alliance was once again brought up, and the celebration banquet lasted for three months with no sign of peace. 。At this time, this point of connection, needless to say, is due to family pressure and has to be dealt with. 。Wen Ruan chuckled softly, "It's solved early, that's good." 。Wen Ruan's fair fingers edited a reply message: {“Everything’s fine”} 。What time is convenient for you, Mr. He? 。The farewell message at this time was just to complete the task. 。Unexpectedly, Wen Ruan hadn't rested yet. A delicate and sickly young lady shouldn't have an irregular sleep schedule, should she? He casually typed out a few words: How come you haven't rested yet? Then he thought better of it and deleted each character one by one. 。He Yanci glanced at the assistant sending an email, and revised: "Would afternoon, 5:30 be convenient?" Wen Ruan: "Convenient" 。I've been in Kyoto lately, nothing is inconvenient. 。Farewell Banquet Speech: [Alright, I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow afternoon. I'll come as early as possible.] 。Wen Ruan didn't refuse either, both families were people who valued face, and they couldn't skip the necessary etiquette. 。As expected, both families will know about their meeting at the first opportunity this time. 。The host did not come to pick him up for the banquet, which instead brought shame upon Wenjia's family. 。Wen Ruan guessed the score flawlessly. 。The next morning, all the designers in Kyoto were waiting in the living room. The designer brought over a dozen dresses, eight cheongsams, and a few suits. 。Min Qing went back and forth, trying several options on Wen Ruan before finally settling on a modified crescent moon white floral cheongsam. It wasn't traditional, yet it had a unique charm that was hard to describe. 。Wen Ruan type is very beautiful, a typical peach shape. The cheongsam outlines the graceful figure, and the just-right opening reveals fair legs, sketching out a small... 。Warm and soft, she wasn't the typical kind of bone structure. Every inch was just right. 。Many people say that a person's spirit resides in their bones, not their skin. The gentleness lies in the skin, and the firmness within the bones. Both gracefulness and alluring charm coexist harmoniously without any dissonance. 。The warm mother was very satisfied, her eyes shining with amazement at the stylist's assistant's work. 。"Ruan, you are so beautiful. Your fiancé must be completely smitten with you like this." 。Wen Ruan was afraid of the cold, so the designer helped her put on a special cashmere coat. She exclaimed in surprise at how warm it felt. 。Wen Ruan smiled without bringing anything, she didn't have a deep impression of He Yan Ci, nor would she forget him. He Yan Ci was annoying to the degree that... 。Before the age of ten, Wen Ruan basically stayed in Kyoto. She would follow He Yanci around whenever she had nothing to do. 。Those who followed He Yan at the banquet back then were so troublesome and unplayful, I remember it clearly. 。It's fine, just deal with it, whatever works. 。Wen Ruan applied her makeup, and the makeup artist placed a beauty mark below her left eye. 。To the little face, alluring and charming, 。A text message for a banquet farewell came, and Wen's mother was helping Wen Ruan pick out shoes. 。I'm on my way, will be there in half an hour. 。Wen Ruan Dafang replied: 【Don't worry, drive safely on the road. 】 。Before leaving, Mother Min Qing couldn't help but hold Wen Ruan's fair wrist and gave her a long lecture, "Ruan Ruan, your grandfather and Grandpa He are both from an older generation with deep-rooted ideas. For both families to arrange this meeting for you young people is rather old-fashioned..." 。We both hope that you can get to know each other better. 。Mother looked around and, among young men of your age, one who matches you in every way is He Yanci. That boy has always been handsome, and I think you would like him. 。Wen Ruan's lips curled up into a slight smile, but she didn't speak. 。Min Qing saw Wen Ruan's unwillingness and squeezed her hand, "If you really don't want to come, don't feel too wronged. But also put away those little temper tantrums you have at home and speak nicely." 。Let's just consider this a friendly outing for dinner. Don't make things awkward, and give each other some face. 。Wen Ruan understood her parents' meaning, hoping that Xi and He Yan could continue to get along well. 。Last night, Wen Ruan and Gang had a video call with their grandfather who had just escaped danger. Upon learning that they were going to meet He Yanci, people could not help but... 。How much of Grandpa Wenruan's thoughts were hidden <<< 。Just whispered softly, "Understood." 。Where do I have a little temper? 。"You're mine, I don't know what kind yet. " 。Min Qing helped Wen Ruan tidy her clothes while glancing at her with a doting look. 。"Don't just keep talking, it's good that the child has some temper." 。"Wouldn't you rather be able to fight back if someone bullied you out there?" Wen Fu came down the stairs, "Have you finished taking your medicine? If you don't feel well, remember to call the doctor. Don't try to tough it out." 。Wen Ruan very much agreed with her father's words, listening attentively. She replied softly, "All..." 。"Min Qing nervously checked Wen Ruan's bag, pulling it open. "You clueless girl, how could you only bring mist spray? How can medicine be taken without bringing pills to eat? Lin Shen, quickly get Ruan Ruan's oral medication." 。"No need, fog spray is completely enough. " 。Don't worry too much, I'm fine now. 。Wen Ruan doesn't like this very much, just because she was a premature baby, other people are a bit weaker, more prone to getting sick, and get cold easily. She also has palpitations and shortness of breath. 。Over the years, these situations have been recurring extensively. Unless there are major upheavals, I wouldn't have to take medication anymore. 。I don't know why they always act like a patient, acting like they need to be waited on hand and foot all the time. 。Min Qing helped Wen Ruan straighten the diamond pin on her collar: "It's still better to be more careful." 。A few days ago, I gave your mother, Song Yanhua, a list of some of your habits and taboos for the banquet. I don't know where He Yanci chose to hold it, whether there are many people or not, and if the air circulation is good. 。This all requires delivering a message to the family... This is not an ordinary blind date, it's more like entertaining leaders. 。It would be strange if one were not upset at being asked to leave a banquet. 。Wen Ruan herself even felt that things were troublesome. 。Wen Ruan received another text message from He Yan's invitation, he was already outside the family courtyard, Wen's parents didn't send Wen Ruan out, fearing that the two young ones would meet formally after many years apart for the first time, they elders meeting first would make the two youngsters feel pressured. 。When Wen Ruan was about to leave, Min Qing still couldn't help but carefully tidy up her clothes one more time, afraid of anything being amiss. Only after making sure everything was perfect did he allow Wen Ruan to go out. 。As the banquet guests departed, the car came to a halt. Walking gracefully around the front of the vehicle and to the passenger side, Wen Ruan emerged from the courtyard in high heels. Her steps were light, her posture elegant and dignified. A touch of refinement emanated from her every move. 。The little girl held a small, sparkly purse in her hand. Under the hazy yellow streetlights, it cast glittering sparks that reflected on her person, making her seem rather radiant. 。The little girl who used to follow him and call him "Brother" at banquets, the one who called him "Brother" with such sweetness, has blossomed into a stunning young woman. 。In mid-October, the little girl was wrapped in a thick cashmere coat. 。Afraid of the cold 。Kyoto winters are always bitterly cold. This young lady might not be able to go out easily. 。When Wen Ruan just returned to Kyoto, her old mother immediately showed her a photo of He Yanci's wedding invitation, saying that he was extremely handsome and even more handsome than when he was young. He fully met this "control freak's" extremely high standards. 。The photo of He Yanci at the banquet only shows his side profile, there is no front view. He is holding a phone and standing by the floor-to-ceiling window talking on the phone. It goes without saying that he was taking a picture. 。Wen Ruan is not only a control freak and a possessive one, but also a huge fan of men's dress shirts. She especially loves deep and pure-colored ones. 。At this moment, the banquet in front of me is full of meticulous care and elegance. 。A dark undershirt, visible beneath a shirt that hugged his tall frame, showed off the lines of his physique. A smoky gray suit encased his long... 。High cheekbones were accentuated by a pair of silver-rimmed spectacles, lending the entire person a layer of gentle warmth. 。Wen Ruan's mind flashed with four words: a scholar but lacking in refinement. 。Wen Ruan stopped two steps away from the banquet farewell. 。At the banquet, He Yanci was exceptionally tall. Wen Ruan Gao wasn't short either, but when she wore a pair of ten-centimeter heels, He Yanci was still significantly taller than her. 。With a smile, she said, "Hello Mr. He, I've been waiting for you." 。Miss Wen is polite, I just arrived too 。"The farewell banquet was filled with cold laughter in He Yan's voice. She opened the passenger door, and Wen Ruan retracted her hand that had been preparing to close the back car door without a trace, choosing the passenger seat instead." 。"Good. How have you been adapting to life back in the capital these past few days?" 。After all, this is home. When you're out there, you think about it. 。"Wen Ruan leaned into the co-pilot seat, turning her head to look at He Yanci outside the car window. After a moment of thought, she chuckled softly, "To be honest, there's not much that feels unfamiliar. If I had to say, it would be the climate." 。You can see from how I'm dressed that I'm very uncomfortable with this. 。Perhaps because he was joking, Wen Ruan's pair of dark eyes were bright and lively, with a playful glint. 。A smile that curves at the corners is quite infectious, and with such a pretty face, it's hard to believe she was born prematurely. 。He Yan Ci's small face was fixed, and she smiled gently, "The night is cool, I also added a jacket, in the car 。Wen Ruan smiled, her eyes crinkled at the corners. Could she not know that He Yan Ci was speaking these words to give her a step down? 。The farewell speech was still gentlemanly, not like the one who used to be clueless about cherishing and protecting beauties. 。Originally, Wen Ruan still wanted to use the celebration banquet as an excuse to confess about their absurd betrothal and make it null and void. She wanted to play hard to get and make him anxious, just to get back at him for finding her troublesome all those years ago. 。Given that he behaved politely and decently at the engagement banquet, I wouldn't deliberately make things difficult for him when he proposed breaking off the engagement. I will aim for a peaceful resolution. 。>Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! |
