X City in the middle of the night is like an awakened sleeping beauty. The graceful neon lights flicker and dance in the middle of the night, attracting pedestrians to linger.

Many luxury cars that Bai Lixin could not name drove into the Moon Bay Hotel in an orderly manner. They arrived neither too late nor too early, just right.

Priscilla silently observed Fei's father through the reflector.

Father Fei was arranging his tie and hair in front of the reflector. When he raised his eyelids to look at the reflector, he happened to notice Prisin's gaze and couldn't help but smile at Prisin in the reflector.

Bai Lixin: "..."

At this time, Fei's father exuded an elegant air and was very close to the high-spirited Mr. Fei he had seen in magazines.

After making sure that his clothes were perfect, Fei's father took Bai Lixin to the dinner hall.

Moon Bay Hotel is the most luxurious hotel in the city. According to Fei's father, the developer of this hotel is the Zhang Group. Although it was built ten years ago, it is still the most iconic hotel in X city.

one of the buildings.

Bai Lixin followed Fei's father, "I saw from the magazine you gave me that the Zhang Group and the Fei Group had reached a five-year strategic partnership. Has it not been continued now?"

Fei's father slowed down for a moment, waiting for Bailixin to catch up. "Something happened at that time, and the cooperation was canceled midway."

Priscilla: "What's the important thing?"

Fei's father: "The person I had a strategic partnership with was Zhang Ao, the then head of the Zhang family chaebol. However, Zhang Ao later disappeared. His successor was not optimistic about our cooperation plan and used various excuses to shirk the responsibility.

If the melon is not sweet, in the end this matter will be settled."

Missing? What a coincidence?

Will Zhang Ao be the skeleton sitting on the sofa?

"When did Zhang Ao disappear?" Bai Lixin followed Fei's father step by step and followed him into the elevator.

Besides them, there were several people standing in the elevator, both men and women, all dressed like upper-class elites. Fei's father closed his mouth and shook his head imperceptibly towards Bai Lixin.

"Isn't this Mr. Fei? Long time no see." A middle-aged man in the elevator recognized Fei's father and extended his hand to greet him.

"Mr. Li, long time no see. How are you doing?" Fei's father stretched out his hand and held it with a relaxed posture.

"What's wrong with me? I'm still busy with my old job. The business has been sluggish in the past two years, and there's no one at home who can help me. It's not like you, who have a tip manager who is such a capable general. I'm very envious of that.

." The man who was called "Mr. Li" cast his eyes meaningfully on Bai Lixin, who was next to Fei's father, "Is this the first young master of your family? Long time no see, first young master."

Bai Lixin looked directly at this "Mr. Li" expressionlessly, ignoring his somewhat explicit eyes, "Hello."

"I haven't seen you for more than half a year. I didn't expect you to become more and more handsome, Mr. Fei." Mr. Li smiled affectionately at Fei's father, "You are so lucky. Each of your two sons is better than the other. You are really envious of others. You

This has been put on hold at home for more than half a year. Does attending this dinner today mean that you are going out?"

Father Fei: "That's not true. It depends on the specific situation. I came here today simply to attend this dinner."

"Look, you are speaking with great energy and your face is rosy. It seems that your illness must have been completely cured. Mr. Fei, you are really a lucky person." Mr. Li blew his rainbow fart as if he was a public relations person.

Father Fei smiled politely and said, "Thanks to you."

Mr. Li narrowed his eyes slightly, and once again glanced at Bai Lixin with a vague look: "Mr. Fei, I'm not hiding anything from you."

"Although I have attended countless dinner parties, the one I can never forget the most is the one I attended at Fei's house a year ago." Mr. Li's eyes were distracted by the memory, "When will you come again?"

Organize, organize, I happen to have a good case in hand and I want to communicate with you."

Other people in the elevator cast curious glances.

Father Fei's smile was already a little stiff, "Mr. Li, we will discuss this matter later. We are here to attend a dinner organized by Zhang's chaebol. If you say that my dinner is good on someone else's territory, aren't you sincerely hurting me?"

Mr. Li looked away from Bai Lixin with some reluctance, "Then we'll discuss it in private and it's settled."

With a "ding", the elevator bell rang, the elevator door slowly opened, and the hall where the banquet was held arrived.

Bright white light shines on the resplendent orange door. The crystal-carved door reflects the lights in the room, and when projected out, it turns into colorful light.

As soon as the elevator door opened, Fei's father winked at Bailixin and led him out of the elevator in a hurry.

His hasty movements even seemed like he was running for his life.

When Baili Xin passed by Mr. Li's position, he felt someone deliberately rubbed his arm. He raised his eyelids and looked at Mr. Li, and saw Mr. Li holding his hand in a circle and smiling narrowly at Baili Xin.

Bai Lixin frowned slightly and walked out of the elevator with long strides, quickly leaving several people in the elevator behind.

"Who is Mr. Li?" Bai Lixin caught up with Fei's father, "I was very familiar with him before?"

"I'm not familiar with them, I just met them a few times on occasions, so don't pay attention to them." Fei's father said with a sullen face, "He's not worthy of being familiar with you. He's not a good person. If you see him in the future, stay away from him."

Priscilla: "What happened to that dinner party a year ago?"

Fei's father paused for a moment: "It's just an ordinary dinner. He just said that on purpose because he had nothing to say. Don't worry about it."

Baili Xin stared at Fei's father's somewhat angry side face, thoughtfully in his heart.

This business district dinner was very large, and when they entered the banquet hall, there were already many people inside.

Bai Lixin walked into the banquet hall and saw the person she wanted to see in the crowd at a glance.

It's really eye-catching.

That person just stops there, and his temperament will always be the most unique one.

He wore a well-tailored black suit, which showed off his straight back and two slender legs.

He is very tall and stands out in the crowd.

The man's back was turned to him, and he was chatting with the person opposite him, with no intention of looking back.

Bai Lixin raised her feet and took two steps in that direction when she was stopped by Fei's father. Fei's father pointed at the man in another corner and said, "That's the new helmsman of the Zhang family chaebol. He organized today's dinner."

Yes, let’s go say hello to him first.”

He was a man with regular facial features, and his facial features were 40-50% similar to Zhang Ao's in the magazine, but he looked younger than Zhang Ao.

"What is his relationship with the missing Zhang Ao?" Baili Xin temporarily put aside his obsession to find Di Jia and focused his attention on the young leader of the Zhang family.

Fei's father lowered his voice, fearing that the people next to him would hear: "His name is Zhang Xiao, and he is Zhang Ao's younger brother. After Zhang Ao disappeared, he became the Zhang family's resident. Despite his young age, Lei Lei is no less skilled than Zhang Ao.

.”

"Don't talk too much, he's looking this way." Fei's father said this hastily and walked up to Zhang Xiao with a smile on his face, "Director Zhang, long time no see."

Zhang Xiao had a smile on his sinister face, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. He had just finished reminiscing with the previous person, and at this moment his eyes were seriously scanning Fei's father and Bai Lixin.

When Zhang Xiao looked over, Baili Xin felt a chill running down his back. The man's eyes fell on Baili Xin's face, and then he scanned Baili Xin inch by inch like he was looking at prey.

The undisguised gaze made Priscilla's jawline tighten slightly.

What happened to the person I met tonight?

Everyone's eyes looked strange, as if everyone regarded themselves as prey waiting for a price.

It's not that he hasn't been the focus of others' attention. He knows it well that he is good-looking, but others usually focus on him and usually give them stunning looks.

But starting from Fei Yinuo, then Mr. Li, and now Zhang Xiao, there were actually a few people among them, and they all looked at him with explicit malice.

Baili Xin's eyes gradually turned cold. He raised his eyes and stared into Zhang Xiao's eyes with sharp eyes.

Zhang Xiao was startled for a moment, then suddenly grinned, revealing a more aggressive smile.

"You are the first one who dares to look at me like this." Zhang Xiao laughed, "I remember you. You are the canary raised at home in the Fei family. Let me think of your name. I remember you.

It’s called Bai Lixin.”

Zhang Xiao directly ignored Fei's father who greeted him, took a step forward, walked up to Bailixin and looked at Bailixin.

Then he sneered and stretched out his hand towards Prisin's chin.

It's too late to say it, but it's soon.

Bai Lixin was not used to it. He backed away to avoid Zhang Xiao's recklessness and then raised his hand and slapped Zhang Xiao's hand away. "Director Zhang, you have overstepped your bounds."

"Dare you slap my hand away? This is the first time someone dared to do this to me," Zhang Xiao's eyes darkened suddenly, "Who do you think you are? I can burn down the Fei family's current industry with just one word, you know

?"

Bai Lixin raised her eyebrows and sneered, looking at Zhang Xiao arrogantly, "Then you'd better hurry up and let me see how strong this fire can be."

I'm just afraid that you won't dare to burn it.

Fei's father turned pale when he heard this.

"Are you playing hard-to-get with me?" Zhang Xiao's eyes were sinister, "You seem to be different from before."

"But you seem to be more interesting now, come with me."

As the man spoke, he stretched out his hand towards Priscilla again.

Just when Bai Lixin was wondering whether there would be too much noise if he kicked Zhang Xiao to the ground now, a strong arm suddenly stretched out from Bai Li Xin's side.

The five-fingered palm directly grasped Zhang Xiao's wrist, making it impossible for Zhang Xiao's arm to move forward at all.

Then a familiar firm feeling appeared behind him, and an emotionless magnetic man's voice came from above Bai Lixin's head, "Director Zhang, he is mine now, are you sure you want to do this?"

Zhang Xiao's sinister eyes looked over Bai Lixin's shoulders and looked behind him. Although he did not soften his words, his movements were obviously slow and stiff, "He is yours? Di Dong, do you know who he is?"

, just hurriedly posted it."

Bai Lixin stood stiffly on the spot, feeling the even breathing sound coming from above her head.

A pair of warm palms gently placed on his shoulders, and he patted Prisin in a comforting manner.

Di Jia's voice came from above again, "It doesn't matter where the hero comes from. It's enough for you to know that he is protected by me now."

"Hero?" Zhang Xiao laughed twice as if he had heard some big joke, and suddenly looked at Bai Lixin, "He actually called you a 'hero', tell him yourself, are you worthy?"
