TAB Chapter 035.2

Little Superstitious

The banquet held by the Qi family is different from the banquet they held when they got married, the whole process is self-service, all guests can move around as they please, and the meals are placed on the long table, if they want to drink or eat, they can just take the plates and help themselves.

But this kind of banquet is a social occasion, no one will focus on eating.

Shen Yuhan chose a seat to the side and sat down, he was unfamiliar with everything here, and he didn’t take anything to drink or eat.

Shen Yuhan doesn’t need to socialize with people, he picked up a magazine on the newspaper rack and read it, he is learning modern knowledge, what he needs now is a lot of reading, no matter what he sees, as long as he is interested, he will read it.

As soon as he sat down, the two women sitting on the sofa lowered their voices.

The two ladies suddenly quieted down, took out their mobile phones in their handbags and typed in something, after a while, one of the hosts of the banquet, Qi Mingqing, the second miss of the Qi family, broke away from the ladies’ circle and came over.

She sat down in front of Shen Yuhan: “Are you the Shen Yuhan who had an argument with Huang Yingxuan last time?”

Shen Yuhan was sitting upright with a magazine in his hand, when he raised his eyes, he saw Qi Mingqing and many women, who suddenly gathered around him.

Qi Mingqing was dressed like a little princess today, wearing a white one-shoulder tight-fitting evening gown, with exposed shoulders, and a skirt that only reached her thighs, Shen Yuhan has become accustomed to the revealing clothing worn by modern women.

Shen Yuhan didn’t know who pushed ‘Shen Yuhan’ into the water at the beginning, but he knew it was a woman.

He didn’t know Qi Mingqing, and didn’t know who she was, but out of respect for the other side, he closed the magazine, and put it back where it belonged.

This woman is very well received, Shen Yuhan can also guess a thing or two, her identity must be not simple, should be one of the hosts of the banquet, he had to be careful with his words, so as not to cause trouble to his husband.

He asked the girl with an oval shaped face1瓜子臉 (guā zǐ liǎn): oval-shaped face with a pointy chin., and a hint of calculation in her eyebrows: “What can I do for you?”

Qi Mingqing smiled in a very friendly manner: “Huang Yingxuan said that she wanted to invite you to the reception room to have a talk, she wanted to apologize to you.”

But Shen Yuhan said in his heart, this was a trick that even those in the inner courtyard would disdain to play, so how could he possibly agree to it, besides, he is now a man, and also a married person, so it was even more impossible for him to be alone with a woman.

This woman was clearly trying to play a trick on him, perhaps she had some sort of problem with ‘Shen Yuhan’?

He bluntly declined: “A man and a woman alone in the same room may easily cause misunderstandings from others, if Miss Huang is willing to reconcile with me, why not come out and talk face to face? You also happen to be a witness.”

Qi Mingqing was slightly stunned, this Shen Yuhan’s words are all human words, not at all like the foul-mouthed rascal Huang Yingxuan described, and she also said that he was trying to steal Shan Qiyun from her.

“It seems that there is nothing wrong with you saying that, okay, I’ll call her out.” Qi Mingqing was actually persuaded by Shen Yuhan.

Mainly, this Shen Yuhan sitting posture is even more standard than hers, after he put down the magazine, he put his left hand with the ring on his right hand, his back straight, his eyes did not wander around when he spoke, and his words were full of respect, she couldn’t say any harsh words, besides, the person’s attitude is also upright and sincere, his voice was neither loud nor soft, so that everyone who wanted to hear the gossip could hear it.

Will he be a powerful character?

Huang Yingxuan was called out of the room by her phone call, originally, Huang Yingxuan had her own plans, and was thinking of having another fight with Shen Yuhan.

However, Shen Yuhan didn’t rush in to battle with her, which was a bit disappointing, did he change his routine?

Shen Yuhan didn’t change his routine, he just changed his soul.

Compared with dealing with modern technological products, he is more comfortable handling interpersonal matters.

Huang Yingxuan is not as spirited as Qi Mingqing, she looks more like a daughter from a humble family2小家碧玉 (xiǎo jiā bì yù): daughter from a humble family; beautiful girl from a lower family; pretty daughter in a humble family; pretty girl of humble birth; In the old days, it was a beautiful young woman in a small family., Shen Yuhan has seen many women of the same type, generally this kind of woman will be relatively vindictive, and also love to be petty.

Seeing Shen Yuhan, who had neither dyed hair nor fancy clothes, Huang Yingxuan said quickly: “Shen Yuhan, you actually dare to come to the banquet.”

Shen Yuhan was naturally not one to back down easily, he raised his chin slightly, and said slowly: “You dare to come, why wouldn’t I dare to come?”

Huang Yingxuan found that she was not as imposing as Shen Yuhan: “Mingqing and I are friends, so why can’t I come.”

Shen Yuhan suddenly laughed softly, confirmed Qi Mingqing’s identity, and looked at Qi Mingqing: “Miss Qi, I just talked about reconciliation with Miss Huang just for your sake, but Miss Huang obviously has no such intention.”

Qi Mingqing didn’t expect to get caught in the fire, and now the reconciliation has turned into her being the middleman, which was very embarrassing, in fact, she just wanted to watch the fun, and didn’t want to stand up for Shen Yuhan.

It’s really riding a tiger and find it difficult to dismount, she didn’t know much about Shen Yuhan’s problems with Miss Huang, it seemed like it was at the Shan family’s banquet? In order to compete for Shan Qiyun’s attention.

Qi Mingqing didn’t want to lose face for Huang Yingxuan: “Ah Xuan, how about you apologize to Shen Yuhan?”

Huang Yingxuan raised her voice and said: “Why should I apologize, he was the one who scolded me first!”

However, Shen Yuhan didn’t look at Huang Yingxuan, he just lowered his head slightly, turned the diamond ring on his ring finger, and said lightly: “But I was the one who fell into the water, and I almost died, a human life and an apology, which one do you choose?”

He didn’t know what the argument was about, but it was a fact that Huang Yingxuan had killed ‘Shen Yuhan’.

What he said was the truth, the people watching the excitement actually wanted to side with him, and the way their eyes looked at Huang Yingxuan is different, if it was just an ordinary quarrel, it would be fine, but now it involves other people’s lives, wouldn’t this Huang Yingxuan bear a villainous name in the future?

Shen Yuhan put Huang Yingxuan under fire with just one sentence!

Whether she apologizes or not, it doesn’t matter, the one who suffers a loss is definitely not Shen Yuhan, he is the victim, and someone who deserves sympathy from others.

That’s why, he has seen many things like playing tricks at banquets, and he can handle it with ease3得心應手 (dé xīn yìng shǒu): lit. what the heart wishes, the hand accomplishes (idiom); suit one’s mind and hand—work with facility/high proficiency; skilled at the job; entirely in one’s element; going smoothly and easily; (idiomatic) with high proficiency and facility, having perfect control over something; Metaphor of proficiency or doing things very smoothly..

As long as he is reasonable, no one can say that he is wrong, besides, now that he wants to live a good life with his husband, he doesn’t really want to get too involved in ‘Shen Yuhan’s’ past disputes.

Huang Yingxuan was stared at by others’ eyes, even if she wasn’t smart, she still knows that she had to apologize today, Qi Mingqing also waited for her, and even gave her a look, after all, they are plastic sisters4塑料姐妹 (sù liào jiě mèi): (neologism, slang) women who claim to be BFFs but actually do not act in the best interest of each other; From the catch phrase 塑料姐妹花 (sù liào jiě mèi huā), “塑料” means “plastic,” and “姐妹花” means “a pair of pretty sisters.” This term originated from a joke popular on Sina Weibo, a Twitter-like social media platform, which said, “The feelings good sisters have for each other are like plastic flowers, not genuine but lasting forever.” Coined by Chinese netizens, this term refers to women (especially in show biz) who claim to be BFFs, hang out together a lot, but do not act in the true interest of each other., still have to give up at the critical moment.

“Okay, I apologize to you, I shouldn’t have pushed you into the water, I’m sorry.” Huang Yingxuan was furious, she apologized, but she still wanted to deliberately provoke Shen Yuhan, “But you can’t be with Brother Qiyun anymore, I still have a chance, but you don’t.”

Oh ho!

There’s other gossip on top of that, the eyes of the surrounding audience light up.

Isn’t Shan Qiyun from the third house of Shan family?

This Shen Yuhan came here with Shan Qihuan from the main house of the Shan family.

The Shan family is indeed unusual, the older brother’s marriage partner likes the younger brother, which is interesting.

Shen Yuhan’s attitude at this time was completely opposite to what everyone expected, instead of getting angry, he smiled: “Miss Huang, I am a man with a husband now, don’t spread rumors randomly, I made it very clear to you last time, your liking for my brother-in-law has nothing to do with me, as his sister-in-law, I definitely cannot decide his life-long affairs5終身大事 (zhōng shēn dà shì): big event in one’s life (usually referring to marriage); major turning point of lifelong import (esp. marriage)., the man is unmarried, the woman is unmarried, if you like him, then boldly pursue him, after all, this is a society where love is free.”

Huang Yingxuan’s face is about to turn into a purple color: “You talk…” Nonsense! That’s not what you said last time, your ability to confuse right and wrong after falling into the water has improved!

Damn, she, she also has no evidence!

Shen Yuhan looked at her with a light smile, looked very magnanimous, and said gently: “You can eat randomly, but you can’t talk randomly.”

Shan Qiyun, who was standing not far away and had been paying attention to this side, only felt that his blood was surging and he felt like vomiting blood, what does Shen Yuhan mean, he denies that the last quarrel with Huang Yingxuan was because he liked him, he denies that he likes himself?

Huang Yingxuan was successfully driven into running away in exasperation by Shen Yuhan, Qi Mingqing, the plastic sister, pretended to chase after her, but in the end, she couldn’t move her legs because of her fifteen-centimeter high heels.

She asked Shen Yuhan curiously: “Which of you is telling the truth?”

Only then did Shen Yuhan begin to deal with Qi Mingqing, who was just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously: “Miss Qi, do you know? In the past, there used to be a saying when watching a play, the first scene was for the immortals, and the last scene was not for everyone.”

Qi Mingqing was puzzled and asked him: “Why, then who is it for?”

Shen Yuhan’s smile suddenly faded, and he gently spat out a word: “Ghost.”

Suddenly, a sense of eeriness filled the air, and the onlookers, including Qi Mingqing, were so frightened that they had goosebumps all over their bodies, is this scolding the people watching the show? If they were hinted to be turned into ghosts, doesn’t it mean that they would die?

All the people who have been ridiculed return to their respective places, and no longer pry into the gossip of Shen Yuhan and Huang Yingxuan.

The matter ended there, the soul of ‘Shen Yuhan’ is no longer among the human world, no one knows the content of the quarrel at that time.

When Shan Qihuan came over, he heard Shen Yuhan dress up as God to play the devil6裝神弄鬼 (zhuāng shén nòng guǐ): lit. dress up as God, play the devil (idiom); fig. to mystify; to dress up as ghosts and spirits (to deceive people); (figuratively) to be deliberately mystifying; disguise oneself as a ghost or deity (to fool people); purposely make a mystery of simple things., which startled Qi Mingqing, and then Qi Mingqing was so frightened that she walked very fast on her heels, wishing she was ten feet away from Shen Yuhan.

He had just heard someone over there saying that there was a lot of excitement here, and when he saw it was Shen Yuhan, he couldn’t move away just now, he fear that he would be bullied, as a result, when he came over, he only saw that he dealt with things in an orderly manner7有條不紊 (yǒu tiáo bù wěn): regular and thorough (idiom); methodically arranged; in perfect order; From the Book of Documents: 若網在綱,有條不紊;若農服田,力穡乃亦有秋。, When the net has its line, there is order and not confusion; and when the husbandman labours upon his fields, and reaps with all his might, there is the (abundant) harvest., and was quite capable, he couldn’t help but twitch his lips, if he had been as calm as he is now, how could he come to the point of being pushed into the swimming pool.

Shen Yuhan’s eyes lit up when he saw Shan Qihuan, ignoring the other people around him, he got up and walked over to Shan Qihuan: “Husband, are you done talking?”

Shan Qihuan said: “I’m done talking, let’s go.”

“Um.” After winning the battle on a familiar battlefield, he actually had a feeling of winning a one-sided battle.

After speaking to the host of the banquet, Shan Qihuan left with Shen Yuhan, as for the other people of the three houses, they didn’t even take a look at them, ignoring them was the greatest harm to them.

Shan Qiyun stood in front of the window, and watched Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan leave together, his eyes flashing with extremely complicated emotions.

As soon as he got into the car, Shen Yuhan’s momentum immediately dissipated, he clasped his hands in front of his chest and paying respects toward the window, muttering something in his mouth, it looks like he was chanting.

Shan Qihuan was speechless and asked him: “Didn’t you spoke quite vigorously just now, and now you’re scared?”

“Don’t talk nonsense about ghosts and gods, it’s disrespectful.” Shen Yuhan said very seriously, after paying his respects, he moved to Shan Qihuan’s side, and said in fear and trepidation8誠惶誠恐 (chéng huáng chéng kǒng): (honorific) in fear and trepidation; with fear and reverence (expression used in an official’s report to the emperor); so cautious that one is very terrified and anxious; be struck with awe; be extremely apprehensive; with reverence and awe; in veneration and trepidation., “Honey, I’m a little scared, you hug me for a while.”

Shan Qihuan said in his heart, Shen Yuhan was not only a sticky person but also a little superstitious, and he also found excuses to stick to him.

“No hugs.” Then he wrapped this little superstitious into his arms, but his mouth was not forgiving, “Feudal superstition is unacceptable.”

Shen Yuhan doesn’t quite understand, what is feudal superstition?
