After Gong Xiaotong's performance, everyone began to move about on their own. This was a gathering centered around Gong Xiaotong, and was naturally an opportunity for some business figures to form alliances. Furthermore, the people in the entertainment circle had formed good relationships with each other, and as a good opportunity to collectively project a reflection on the situation, they would naturally attend as soon as they were invited. Therefore, after the main character saw this, those people with ulterior motives also began their next step.
Gu Wei did not immediately rush over to find Lingyuxiao. In order to not make things too obvious, not to mention that she was the master of the house today and was currently occupying a strong position in the entertainment circle at a rapid pace, there would naturally be many people who would want to form a relationship with her. Therefore, just dealing with these people alone was enough to give her a headache, much less walking over to Lingyuxiao's side.
It looks like Gong Xiaotong was doing quite well in the entertainment circle, there were many people from the younger generation who came to participate in this banquet, to congratulate her on receiving the advertisement and on successfully killing Qing. Of course, many of them were trying to make use of her momentum to get popular. However, Li Xi did not understand what kind of a place the entertainment circle was. She only thought that Gong Xiaotong's connections were strong, which was why this banquet seemed to be of a very high class.
Li Xi followed Lingyuxiao the entire time. For her top business husband, there were quite a few people who came to drink with him. After only ten minutes, dozens of people ran over to clink cups with Lingyuxiao. Li Xi watched Lingyuxiao drink cup after cup. Even if it was red wine, that was not the way he drank it. Afraid that Lingyuxiao had drank too much, Li Xi wanted to advise him not to entertain anymore. It was not that she didn't know that Lingyuxiao's alcohol tolerance was good, but she didn't want him to drink too much to the point that it would hurt his body.
But before Li Xi could say anything, she saw Gong Xiaotong walking over. Li Xi said to herself in her heart: If Gong Xiaotong wants to toast, Lingyuxiao definitely cannot refuse. That's good, with Gong Xiaotong's goblet of wine as the end, she must make him stop.
”President Ling. As an investor in my ad this time, I am very grateful to you for choosing me. All the employees in your company are of good quality and it is a pleasure to work with you. ”I don't know if I have the honor to have an opening dance with you?” Initially, he had thought that Gong Xiaotong had come to toast, but he didn't expect that she had invited him for a dance.
Lingyuxiao originally wanted to reject, but Li Xi immediately said: ”Yu Xiao, go and dance with Miss Gong. Consider it as me thanking her for giving you the product as a endorsement. I'm going over there to get some heart food, you know, and I'm getting hungry again. ” Although Li Xi did not really like Gong Xiaotong, but since the advertisement went so smoothly this time, she believed that it would give a good reaction to Ling Style. In any case, if he did not go dance with Gong Xiaotong, there would be even more people who would come to drink with him. She didn't want others to think that she had to follow behind Lingyuxiao and be protected by him.
Hearing Li Xi's words, Lingyuxiao made a gesture of invitation, stepping aside to invite him onto the stage.
The music rang, and Lingyuxiao and Gong Xiaotong danced together under the intense light from the crowd. That scene once again caused everyone to set their gazes on the stage. Li Xi did not dare look at that scene, thinking that she would not be able to hold back his jealousy. She clearly agreed to it, so she can't regret it. So she went to the dining area and chose the food she wanted to eat.
Just as Li Xi was putting a piece of dessert into her mouth, she was attracted by a familiar figure in front of him. If she wasn't mistaken, that person should be Lan Yetian. But why was he here? Could it be that Gong Xiaotong also invited him over? However, she did not have the mind to think about these things first. She really wanted to talk to Lan Yetian and try to persuade him again, especially after knowing the story that happened to him.
”Brother Lan.” Li Xi walked over to Lan Yetian and stopped him.
Actually, Lan Yetian had long seen Li Xi walk over. She was intentionally standing at a place where it was easy for Li Xi to notice him, waiting for her to notice him. This was a plan that he and Gu Wei had long since agreed upon. On the day of the banquet, Gu Wei was responsible for controlling Lingyuxiao, while she was responsible for luring Li Xi away. Then, Gu Wei could smoothly proceed to the next step of her plan.
Lan Yetian deliberately ignored Li Xi, turning his back to leave. He maintained a uniform pace so that Li Xi could catch up.
Li Xi followed Lan Yetian out of the banquet hall. Seeing that Lan Yetian was about to leave, Li Xi increased her speed and caught up to him, grabbing onto the corner of his clothes.
”Brother Lan. Can we have a good talk? ” Li Xi blocked in front of Lan Yetian.
”About what?” If you want to give up on dealing with Lingyuxiao, then we don't need to talk about it anymore. I've already said that I definitely won't give up. ” Lan Yetian deliberately said these cold words.
”I already know why you can't give up. Is it because of that organization? There must be other ways to deal with Lingyuxiao. It's not because of your intentions, I can understand you. ” Li Xi hoped that Lan Yetian could work together with him. That way, they might be able to deal with that American gang. This way, Lan Yetian could also be freed from the control of the big BOSS.
”How do you know all this? Who told you? ” Lan Yetian didn't think that there would come a day where Li Xi found out about the things that she wasn't willing to talk about with Li Xi.
”I'm sorry. I promised her I wouldn't. ” Li Xi knew that if she were to say Chu Meng's name, it would only make the distance between Chu Meng and herself grow further and further. She did not want to do that, and she understood just how important Lan Yetian was to her.
”Then there's nothing more to be said between us.” Lan Yetian pushed away Li Xi's arm who was blocking her way, and prepared to leave.
”So painful ~ ~ ~” Unexpectedly, he heard Li Xi's shout at this time. Then, he saw Li Xi's body bend down along with him, as her entire body turned soft.
