Chapter 422: Can you eat this garbage?
Qi Yao looked at the two of them and knew that if she didn't make some concessions, she wouldn't be able to successfully invite Lin Yuan to accompany her to the banquet today.
She sighed helplessly, "Okay, I'll ask Lin Yuan to help me and accompany me to the banquet tonight. I promise that I won't pester him again after the banquet. Is that okay?"
When An Qier and Qi Xiaoke heard Qi Yao's solemn assurance, they looked at each other and seemed to be communicating with their eyes.
Finally, Angel pouted and said reluctantly: "Okay, let's just believe you once."
Qi Xiaoke also nodded, "However, we also have to attend a banquet tonight."
Qi Yao was stunned. She didn't expect that the two of them would make such a request. In order to achieve her own goal, she had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, you can go if you want!"
Lin Yuan looked at the three women talking to each other and felt that his head was getting big.
The evening banquet was held in a luxurious hotel, with celebrities from all walks of life wearing glamorous evening gowns.
Qi Yao walked into the banquet hall holding Lin Yuan's arm. She was wearing a lavender evening dress with a light and elegant skirt that highlighted her graceful figure.
Lin Yuan was wearing a dark suit and had a tall and straight figure.
The combination of the two was undoubtedly a beautiful sight at the banquet, attracting many eyes.
Qi Xiaoke and An Qier also attended the banquet. They were a little unhappy when they saw Qi Yao and Lin Yuan's intimate behavior.
However, both of them endured it. As long as the evening was over, Qi Yao would leave automatically.
Think about it, it’s still a good deal!
As a well-known socialite in the industry, Qi Yao attracted many eyes as soon as she entered the banquet hall.
"Hey, isn't this Qi Yao? Long time no see, she's getting more and more beautiful."
A man in a suit held a wine glass and walked up to greet Qi Yao with a hint of ridicule in his tone.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu, for the compliment. You are also very personable."
Qi Yao responded with a smile, her attitude was calm, and she greeted the guests one by one elegantly.
However, at this moment, a sharp male voice broke the harmonious atmosphere.
"Qi Yao, can you even eat this kind of garbage?"
A man who was dressed gorgeously but with a bit of frivolity sneered and glanced at Lin Yuan disdainfully.
Zhao Tai is a well-known playboy in the circle, and the female companion standing next to him.
She is a well-known internet celebrity on social media named Lulu Jiang.
Wearing a revealing evening dress and heavy makeup, she cuddled up next to Zhao Tai and cast a curious look at Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan recognized Lulujiang. They were all Internet celebrities, and no one knew who was who.
Qi Yao sneered, tightened her grip on Lin Yuan's arm, and responded to Zhao Tai's provocation with her head held high.
"Zhao Tai, Lin Yuan is much better than you. At least he knows how to respect people. Who do you think you are?"
There was obvious contempt in Qi Yao's tone, and her eyes were as sharp as knives.
Zhao Tai was choked by Qi Yao's counterattack. He didn't expect Qi Yao to reply to him so directly, and the smile on his face was a bit unbearable.
"You!" Zhao Taigang was about to have a fit, but was gently pulled back by Lulujiang beside him.
"Brother Tai, don't be the same as her, let's go over there." Lulujiang said sweetly, looking at Lin Yuan with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.
Lin Yuan's scalp felt numb. What happened to Lulu Jiang?
Zhao Tai snorted coldly, glared at Lin Yuan fiercely, and then walked to the other side with Lulu Jiang in his arms.
"Qi Yao, are you okay?" Lin Yuan asked with concern.
Qi Yao smiled and shook her head, "I'm fine, thank you."
She looked at Zhao Tai and Lulujiang's leaving figures, with a trace of disdain on her face.
She turned her head and said to Lin Yuan: "That's my stupid ex-boyfriend. I caught him cheating on him, so I told him to get out of here."
After hearing this, Lin Yuan gave a few symbolic words of comfort: "That kind of person doesn't deserve your sadness. You deserve better."
Qi Yao nodded, with a grateful smile on his face: "Thank you, Lin Yuan. Let's go have a drink."
The two walked to the bar. Qi Yao skillfully ordered two cocktails and handed one to Lin Yuan.
She raised her glass and said with a smile: "Cheers to our new beginning."
Lin Yuan also raised his wine glass, the two of them clinked their glasses gently and drank the wine in one gulp.
On the other side, Zhao Tai brought Lulujiang to Zhao Tianbao.
Zhao Tianbao was talking to Chen Yifei, obviously introducing contacts.
Zhao Tianbao was immediately dissatisfied when he saw that his son had another internet celebrity.
Zhao Tianbao frowned, with reproach in his tone.
"Zhao Tai, you brought this kind of woman here again, how do you want me to say hello to you?"
Zhao Tai snorted coldly and retorted: "What's wrong with me? Lulu-chan is very good. What's wrong with me bringing her here?"
Zhao Tianbao was so angry that his face was livid, "Do you know that you have ruined such a good marriage partner like Qi Yao? Can you have some potential and have a good marriage? Don't think about it all day long."
Zhao Tai's rebellious psychology was aroused, and he immediately got angry!
"You don't have to worry about my affairs. I can be with whoever I like. You have nothing to do with it."
Zhao Tianbao stared with anger, "You unfilial son, you really piss me off."
Chen Yifei stood aside and looked at this scene awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
Zhao Tai took Lulujiang's hand, turned around and left: "Let's go drink and ignore him."
Zhao Tianbao looked at his son's leaving figure, shook his head with hatred, turned to Chen Yifei and said, "Yifei, you must seize the opportunity, don't be like Zhao Tai."
Chen Yifei nodded, with a hint of helplessness on his face: "Mr. Zhao, I will work hard."
Zhao Tianbao patted Chen Yifei on the shoulder and said in a very vulgar tone, "Okay, I believe you."
"Remember to wait for me at the old place tonight!"
When Chen Yifei heard this, he naturally understood what it meant and nodded.
Zhao Tai and Lulu Jiang were sitting at the bar, holding wine glasses, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.
Zhao Tai's eyes wandered around the banquet hall, trying to find something that could make him feel better.
Suddenly, his eyes fell on the corner of the banquet hall, where Angel and Qi Xiaoke were sitting.
The two seemed to be playing with their mobile phones and laughing softly from time to time.
Their liveliness was in sharp contrast to the surrounding environment, attracting Zhao Tai's attention.
A glimmer of light flashed in Zhao Tai's eyes. He turned to Lulujiang and said, "Lulu, have you seen those two girls? Let's go say hello."
Lulujiang followed Zhao Tai's gaze and hesitated.
"Brother Tai, wouldn't this be bad? They look like..."
Zhao Tai didn't take it seriously. He interrupted Lulujiang.
"What are you afraid of? I just want to get to know you. Let's go."
Lulujiang had no choice but to put down her wine glass and follow Zhao Tai.
Zhao Tai walked to An Qier and Qi Xiaoke and extended his hand like a gentleman.
"Hi, I'm Zhao Tai, and this is Lulu Jiang. Seeing these two ladies here, I couldn't help but come over and say hello."
An Qier and Qi Xiaoke raised their heads and looked at Zhao Tai and Lulu Jiang in front of them.
The two looked at each other and saw the wariness in the other's eyes.
