As soon as Li Xiao finished speaking, there was a sudden "bang" in the room!
Cai Xiaotang slapped her palm on the table, completely ignited by this sentence and ignited the entire afternoon.
"I don't care about your reputation! People in this circle of you are really annoying and weird! Do you all think that you are the center of the earth? If you say you won't go, you won't go! You don't want to go! Do you understand? ?”
She yelled at Li Xiao angrily, and after speaking, her face suddenly flashed with embarrassment for a moment.
Did you yell too loudly?
After all, what happened in the afternoon had nothing to do with him...
It was she who didn't refuse simply.
Cai Xiaotang's expression was somewhat conflicted, and she turned away without looking at him.
Li Xiao didn't expect that she would be so angry. Instead of being angry, she actually found it very interesting.
Knowing that she was in a bad mood, he hurriedly changed his words and advised: "I used the wrong word just now. Let's do this. You come with me. I can guarantee that there will be someone who is interested in you at the dinner party tomorrow." thing!"
"what?"
When Cai Xiaotang heard this, she stopped what she was doing and turned to look at him again.
Li Xiao pretended to be mysterious and smiled: "I said yes, of course there will be. If I lie to you, you can get angry any way you want when I come back. Is that okay?"
Cai Xiaotang: "..."
She looked at the person in front of her suspiciously, not knowing what kind of medicine he was selling. After thinking for two seconds, she refused again: "Who knows what you are doing? Don't go."
"Really not going?" There was a hint of inducement in Li Xiao's tone.
After that, he deliberately pretended to be pity and shook his head: "If you don't go, don't blame me for not reminding you when the time comes. If you miss it this time, there will be no next time..."
As Li Xiao spoke, he actually pretended to be very sorry and sighed.
Cai Xiaotang finally made another move, turning her head to look at him suspiciously again, as if she was persuaded.
Li Xiao hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "I promise, you won't regret it after you go!"
Cai Xiaotang saw that his face was serious and it really didn't seem like he was lying, so she finally nodded and agreed: "Okay then..."
If you go with this guy... you won't encounter any annoying people anymore, right?
She wanted to see what kind of medicine Li Xiao Gourd was selling!
…
The next evening——
Cai Xiaotang and Li Xiao set off on time and headed to the World Trade Center together.
In the car, Cai Xiaotang reached out for the first time and tugged on the necklace around her neck.
It was a small aqua blue diamond, shining quietly against the light outside the car window.
"Why do you keep touching it?"
Li Xiao saw that her hand hadn't stopped since she got in the car, so he couldn't help but ask in a funny way.
Cai Xiaotang immediately rolled her eyes at him angrily and said, "I'm not used to wearing this kind of thin chain. I always feel that my neck will be uncomfortable. Why do you have to ask me to wear this?"
"Hmm...can you take it as a status symbol?"
Li Xiao's answer was ambiguous.
Cai Xiaotang instantly lost interest in continuing to inquire.
He has said so... It must be a very expensive necklace, or the kind that he will never be able to afford in his next life!
Half an hour later——
The car stopped in front of a tall building.
This is the tallest building in the city besides Li's.
Cai Xiaotang raised his eyes and looked at the brightly lit banquet hall, a trace of disgust flashing in his eyes.
I didn't expect that I would still have the opportunity to come to such an occasion after being far away from the Mu family...
I think back then, my mother was in a place like this...
Cai Xiaotang's eyes flickered for a moment, not wanting to be affected by her mood, she quickly retracted her thoughts.
"Let's go."
Li Xiao's voice suddenly rang in his ears, pulling Cai Xiaotang back from his thoughts.
Then a gentle hand rested on her shoulder.
Cai Xiaotang suddenly got goosebumps all over her body. Just as she was about to get sick, she saw the person in front of her saying seriously: "I'm not trying to take advantage of you. Don't forget our current relationship."
Before Cai Xiaotang could say anything, she was choked back, and she became even more unhappy. She could only glare at him, and then followed his footsteps and walked inside together.
The elevator rose slowly and stopped at the top.
As soon as the door opened, a bright light came into view.
There were already many people holding wine glasses, walking among the crowd, chatting casually.
Cai Xiaotang coughed lightly, and instantly changed into a cold expression that kept strangers away.
Li Xiao glanced at her funny, then walked into the hall.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the door, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Young Master Li! It's such a rare sight! I thought the person coming today would be Mr. Li!"
Someone immediately came up to chat.
Li Xiao is Li Beijue's elder, so when outsiders mention him in front of Li Xiao, they always add a small word.
Hearing this, Li Xiao smiled faintly and suddenly took Cai Xiaotang's hand: "I just had nothing to do. It was Xiaotang who said that he had never participated in such a banquet and wanted to contribute some love, so I specially asked someone to do it. Bei Jue has been informed that I will attend on his behalf today."
"So that's it!"
The other party suddenly realized, and then hurriedly praised: "This is just a charity party. Naturally, everyone in the Li family will shine. Third Young Master Li is Mr. Li's elder. Thinking about it this way, it seems that the Li family pays more attention to it." ”
Li Xiao didn't have much reaction to the other party's obvious flattery, he just smiled lightly.
The other party was also very good at finding a way to get off the stairs. When he saw this, he hurriedly said: "It's rare for Mr. Li to attend with his wife, so I won't bother you here. I wish you two a good time tonight."
After the man finished speaking, he immediately turned around and left.
Cai Xiaotang watched him walk away, and finally couldn't help but snorted softly.
Charity Gala?
She looked up at the huge luxurious crystal chandelier on the roof, a trace of disdain flashing in her eyes.
What are these people wearing and what are they wearing on their hands? Isn’t it enough for ordinary people to eat for several months or even half a year?
In such a luxuriant place, talking openly about charity... is really so false and disgusting.
Cai Xiaotang didn't want to stay any longer.
She tugged on Li Xiao's sleeve, leaned into his ear and whispered, "Where is the thing you said I was interested in before? If not, I will go back!"
"No hurries?"
Li Xiao couldn't help but smile at the corner of his lips, his eyes swept around the venue calmly, and suddenly looked fixedly in a certain direction.
I saw a man and a woman standing there, seemingly talking to someone else.
"Isn't that what you're interested in?"
Li Xiao raised his eyebrows and raised his hand to signal.
Cai Xiaotang looked over subconsciously, and then her expression suddenly changed.
Depend on!
Isn't that the arrogant Mrs. Chen yesterday?
