Mi Li didn't know that Lu Lei was the enemy of the entire Deep Blue.
But he is also the person she trusts the most.
It made Mi Li realize the meaning of Li Xiaoming's words. If she interacted with Lu Lei again, she would be labeled as a spy. Not only would she be tortured to extract a confession, but no one would come forward to help her.
At that time, they can only end up being betrayed and separated from their relatives.
With such consequences, even Mi Li hesitated.
What worried him even more was whether Li Xiaoming would tell others about her phone conversation with Lu Lei.
This undoubtedly harmed her.
Now Mi Li is in a dilemma.
Not taking a step forward, nor taking a step back.
I don’t even know what to do.
"It seems there is only one way now."
Mi Li bit her lip and made a decision that she would regret for the rest of her life.
Just close to Li Xiaoming.
If it were in the past, she would have wished she was thousands of miles away from Li Xiaoming.
But now her affairs were discovered by Li Xiaoming. Even if everything about Li Xiaoming made her feel sick, she could only stay close to him.
So she bravely made a call: "Li Xiaoming, are you free at noon tomorrow?"
Li Xiaoming received a call from Mi Li for the first time. He had always imagined that Mi Li would suddenly call him. He didn't need to care much about the phone call, just a normal hello. He was completely satisfied.
"Of course there is time."
"I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow!"
A few simple words made Li Xiaoming's mind go blank. He couldn't believe himself. Was he really dreaming?
He pinched himself hard, this time he used too much force. He immediately grinned in pain.
"I'm not dreaming." Li Xiaoming said excitedly: "Where will you be tomorrow? What time?"
"In Xuanyun Pavilion at eleven o'clock noon."
"Xuanyun Pavilion?" Li Xiaoming had heard of this place. The environment there was beautiful, with huge rockeries lingering in the floating clouds, as if he was in a fairyland on earth. He wanted to come here when he lost his sight. He wanted to see what kind of scenery could be so moving one day when he regained his sight.
But after he regained his sight, he has been busy with Shenlan's affairs. There is no time to come here.
Mi Li invited here, it was his favorite.
Time passed by minute by second, and it was almost eleven o'clock when Li Xiaoming came to the door of Xuanyun Pavilion. The huge plaque is full of antique flavor. It looks like three characters written by a master: "Xuanyun Pavilion."
There is a couplet standing on both sides of the door: "Enter here with ease and ease, and float out of the world."
Li Xiaoming muttered this couplet, feeling for the first time how lucky he was to regain his sight.
"Ding dong..."
Li Xiaoming pushed open the wooden door full of age, and a misty steam suddenly spurted out.
"welcome!"
At this time, a voice like a silver bell came from the door. Li Xiaoming glanced and saw that it was a tall and beautiful beauty wearing a cheongsam.
Li Xiaoming looked at everything in the house and saw a huge rockery standing in the center with lush branches. A feeling of vitality.
The rockery is surrounded by bursts of fairy-like water vapor. It feels like entering a fairyland.
From time to time in the fairyland, fairies wearing colorful clothes shuttle through the fairyland carrying trays.
It's pleasing to the eye.
The beautiful woman in cheongsam saw Li Xiaoming standing motionless at the door, and asked him with a smile: "Sir, have you reserved a table?"
Li Xiaoming, who was intoxicated, was suddenly interrupted by the beautiful woman and said: "Oh! We are here, we have an appointment here."
"Is the person you are dating a beautiful woman?"
"Yes!"
The beauty stretched out her palm humbly: "Sir, please come with me!"
Li Xiaoming followed the beautiful woman through the fairyland, and saw various elegant rooms along the way. In the elegant rooms, he could see guests changing cups and changing glasses, and they were well-dressed. It seemed that there was no white lady coming and going in this place.
Soon the beauty led Li Xiaoming to a secluded private room with the words "Yellow Crane Tower" written on it.
"Sir, this is it!"
Li Xiaoming stepped into the private room and saw a landscape painting painted on the wall opposite the door. In the painting, an independent Yellow Crane Tower could be seen standing high in the clouds.
Next to the Yellow Crane Tower stands a poem:
"In the past, people rode the Yellow Crane, and the Yellow Crane Tower was vacant here.
The yellow crane is gone and never returns, and the white clouds remain empty for thousands of years.
Qingchuan is full of Hanyang trees, and the grass is luxuriant and Parrot Island is green.
Where is the Rimu Township Pass? The smoke on the Yanbo River makes people sad. "
The last inscription contains a small inscription: "Written in September of the Xinyou year."
Then a small red seal.
Underneath the painting is a wooden table, on which the grain of the wood can be seen. A beautiful woman was flipping through the menu in front of the table. You could see traces of tree lines on the menu. It seemed like eating here must be expensive.
At this time, Mi Li also noticed Li Xiaoming's arrival. She raised her head and glanced at Li Xiaoming: "You're here!"
The slightly cold attitude did not make Li Xiaoming feel uncomfortable, but made him even happier. Because it is the greatest honor to invite him here for dinner.
"Sorry, I am late!"
Li Xiaoming said apologetically.
"It's okay! I just came too!" Mi Li pushed the menu in his hand to Li Xiaoming: "What do you want to eat? Just order it!"
Li Xiaoming looked at the dishes on the menu. They were all so delicious, and he wanted to try them all again. But when he saw the price, his heart started beating.
Although Mi Li is treating me today, each dish costs more than a thousand. What if it was too late and Mi Li was unhappy, which he really didn't want to see.
"Come on, have some! This is my first time coming to this place and I don't know what to eat."
Mi Li listened to what Li Xiaoming said and handed the menu to the beautiful woman next to her: "Let's have your specialties!"
The beauty looked at the menu and walked over gracefully.
"Why did you invite me to dinner today?"
Mi Li didn't say anything at first, watching the delicious dishes being served one after another.
The entire table was instantly filled with delicious food.
Mi Li said to the last fairy: "Please close the door."
The fairy closed the door very wisely before leaving.
When Li Xiaoming saw Mi Li not speaking for a long time, he then asked, "Is it because of Lu Lei's matter?"
Mi Li thought for a long time, considering how to speak: "Actually, I shouldn't hide it from you. I have always missed him. Even if he is our enemy now, I will never forget him."
This sentence made Li Xiaoming's face suddenly turn ugly: "Then why did you invite me to dinner?"
"I hope you won't tell others about my call to Lu Lei."
This made Li Xiaoming's expression even colder: "Is this why you invited me to dinner?"
"no!"
