Chapter 558: Strike up a conversation
Li Lei stopped and said, "The old man won't let you let Miss Ye in?"
The guard said: "The old man only allows ladies from the Fang family to enter. He also said that if anyone disobeys the rules, let us kick her out." The implication is that even if Li Lei takes people in by force, a violent conflict will inevitably occur. .
Du Yunfeng smiled happily: "Li Lei, give up. How could your old man let Ye Xingling in?" He didn't even think about why the old man held this banquet. If the old man liked Ye Xingling, a woman like this, he would still do it. Is there this party?
Li Lei said, "A noble lady from an aristocratic family? In other words, it would be no problem to turn Xiao Ling into a famous lady from an aristocratic family."
The guard was startled for a moment before he replied: "No problem." But he thought in his heart, how could it be possible? It has long been said in the news that Ye Xingling's parents are ordinary working-class people, common people with good roots.
Li Lei chuckled.
He turned his eyes and looked at Du Yunfeng. Du Yunfeng was alarmed by his sight: "What are you doing?"
“From today on, Xiao Ling is your god-sister.”
"Me, my god-sister?" Du Yunfeng went crazy, "This woman? She deserves it..." He was about to say something ugly when he caught a glimpse of Li Lei's face and swallowed it back. He knew that his brother really liked this woman. Last time, he heard that he was causing trouble for Ye Xingling at the cruise party, and Li Lei had a fight with him.
Du Yunfeng felt that he was really unjust. He was beaten by Pei Ziheng and his good brother for an unrelated woman. He looked at Xia Ling with deep resentment and said slowly: "If you are not willing to be my **** sister, I will never force you." He did not dare to refuse Li Lei. If he gave up on this woman again, With Li Lei added, I'm afraid their brotherhood has come to an end.
Now, we can only hope that this woman will refuse on her own.
Xia Ling doesn’t like Du Yunfeng either, but she has never lost her temper until now. If you refuse Li Lei's arrangement, you will not only be kicked out of the banquet, but you will also lose Li Lei's face.
So, she called out softly: "Brother."
Du Yunfeng was about to cry but had no tears, and his whole body felt bad.
Li Lei was very happy and said to the guard with a smile: "Okay, now, this is Miss Du's family, it's time to let her go."
Guard: “…”
Gu Lin jumped out: "Brother Lei, you are cheating!"
Li Lei: "This is the Du family's business, Miss Gu, you have nothing to do with it." This matter involves Xiao Ling, and he is serious about it. Anyone who dares to have trouble with Xiao Ling will have trouble with him.
The sound of "Miss Gu" made Gu Lin frightened. In the past, brother Lei always called her Linlin, but now she is so unfamiliar. Today's banquet was extraordinary. She was afraid of making Li Lei angry again and giving other women the opportunity to take advantage of it, so she had two bags of tears in her eyes and shut her mouth in grievance.
Xia Ling smiled brightly, still holding Li Lei's hand, and walked inside.
Many ladies and gentlemen watched them leave, and order was restored at the sign-in desk at the door.
After leaving the crowd, the elegant and proud look on Xia Ling's face collapsed, and she asked Li Lei: "What's going on? What kind of banquet is this? Why is a forged invitation sent to me?"
Li Lei didn't know who framed her, so he went through the list of possible names in his mind and said, "Are you tired? I'll help you sit in the rest area and get you some fruit snacks. This banquet... Come to think of it, It’s a long story, I’ll explain it to you.” Li Lei felt a little guilty when talking about this banquet, and thought about feeding Xiao Ling some of her favorite foods first, maybe filling her stomach would make her feel better. , it will be easier to accept his explanation. Xia Ling didn't know what he was thinking, so she sat down on the small sofa in the rest area and nodded: "You go ahead. I want to eat hazelnut cake and strawberry ice cream."
“Little glutton.” Li Lei smiled fondly and turned around to get her some cakes.
The wind in the summer night is a bit cool, and there are ripples on the water near the window. She sat lazily, staring at the clear water with her eyes lowered. Although her posture was careless, due to the habit of being a star for two lifetimes, her figure was extremely beautiful no matter where she was. Just this one Her sitting posture compared her with the many celebrities walking around.
“Look, that girl over there is so beautiful.” Not far away, a young man pulled his companion.
“Isn’t that Ye Xingling?” His companion asked, “Why did a female star come in? Could it be that she was a singer invited to the banquet and came out to take a break during the middle of the stage?”
“Ye Xingling?” Young Master said, “Second Young Master Li’s scandal partner?”
The companion glanced at him: "Why, are you interested in her?"
The young master smiled and said: "If you don't say anything else, just look at the way she sits, she is many times prettier than those young ladies. It's no wonder that Second Young Master Li likes her. However, since it is Second Young Master Li You can't touch them."
The companion said: "If you really have an idea, just go and strike up a conversation. I think Second Young Master Li is just playing with her. Otherwise, how could there be such a banquet today?"
The young master thought for a while and said, "That's right."
His companion said to him: "What's wrong with going to talk? This is what you and I want to do. Besides, Second Young Master Li is surrounded by so many young ladies tonight, how can he care about her? But you, it's rare There is such a banquet, why bother wasting time with a female star instead of chatting up this young lady?"
The young master said, "I don't like those young ladies." He straightened his clothes and walked towards Xia Ling.
Xia Ling looked at the waterside with some boredom, thinking about what happened when she was stopped at the door just now, and she felt sad unconsciously. Not long ago, she and Li Lei were so close, going in and out together, eating and living together, but now, they both wanted to attend such a large banquet, but they didn't even communicate with each other.
When did they become so far apart?
The sound of footsteps came from behind.
Xia Ling thought it was Li Lei who had come back with food, so she cheered up and said, "Thank you for the hazelnut cake." She turned her head and found a strange man behind her, well-dressed, young and handsome, looking at him with a smile on his face. Holding her.
"Hello." The young master greeted her with a smile, "I'm sorry that I didn't bring the hazelnut cake. I asked the waiter to get it for you."
Xia Ling blinked, "Are you...?"
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Wang Tao, and I am the third young master of Wang's restaurant chain." The young master has a very good demeanor, "Nice to meet you."
Xia Ling was not happy to meet him. She looked at the man in front of her who was obviously here to strike up a conversation and said, "Sorry, I'm waiting for someone."
"Are you waiting for Li Lei?" Wang Tao smiled politely, "He is very busy tonight and will not have time to accompany you."
