Although the reception was splendid, there was nothing to see except handsome men and beautiful women. At first, Yao Wenya looked around happily, but after a while she felt bored. She had always wanted to attend a high-society reception, but in fact she just wanted to
A good man got married, but now that the golden bachelor's number one is by her side, she no longer has the excitement of attending a cocktail party.
Looking at the dazzling array of pastries on the buffet table was quite tempting, but the big hand on her waist never relaxed. She tried several times but couldn't get rid of it, so she slowly gave up and allowed Ling Lie to lead her.
Watching her shuttle among the crowd. She found that he was particularly high-profile today, not ignoring anyone like Anna said before. Could it be because he was accompanied by beautiful women to show off? Well, she was considered narcissistic.
.
Suddenly her stomach rumbled at an inappropriate time, which made her very embarrassed. She looked around secretly, but no one seemed to hear her! She looked up at Ling Lie, who still had the same calm expression as before. But the next second she didn't think that way, because
Ling Lie took her to the dining table and picked a piece of strawberry cake and put it on her plate.
"Uh... I'm not hungry!" Yao Wenya was a little embarrassed.
"Eat, I'm hungry!" He said, forking out a piece of unknown food and stuffing it into his mouth. Every time he attended a cocktail party, he would never touch the food. He hated buffets the most in his life.
With him accompanying Yao Wenya, she began to eat confidently and boldly. While eating, she looked up at Ling Lie with a smile. At this moment, her heart was filled with happiness.
Suddenly Pi Weilun appeared behind them and whispered something into Ling Lie's ear. Ling Lie frowned slightly and gave him a wink. Pi Weilun nodded and left.
"Is something wrong?" Yao Wenya looked up at Ling Lie's solemn expression and asked tentatively.
Ling Lie nodded slightly and raised his hand to gently wipe the cream from the corner of her mouth, "You eat first, I will go to the lounge upstairs to talk to Allen about something and I will be back in a while."
Yao Wenya nodded reflexively, but then said: "I am your personal bodyguard. Are you sure you don't need me to protect you?"
Ling Lie raised the corner of his mouth and smiled faintly, then whispered in her ear: "The role of a female bodyguard is only to warm the bed!"
"Disgusting!" Yao Wenya was just about to complain that Ling Lie had already walked towards the elevator.
I don't know where An Junnuo went. Yao Wenya didn't know anyone here and could only fight with the food. Suddenly a hand came up on his shoulder. Yao Wenya was startled and the cake was rubbed on his face, and he hurriedly pulled it away
I wiped it with my napkin and looked back at the culprit.
"Yaya..." Yuchi Mingxi raised his hand with tangled eyes to reach for the cream on her cheek. But when he was about to touch her, she took a step back, making his heart sink.
"That...Mingxi...what a coincidence!" Yao Wenya was a little embarrassed and didn't know what kind of opening remarks to use. She had already heard her elder brother tell her that she really misunderstood Yuchi Mingxi.
"Yaya, are you still angry with me? Don't you still want to see me? You can't even just be friends?"
Seeing the loneliness in Yuchi Mingxi's eyes, Yao Wenya was a little sad. She knew his feelings for her, but she couldn't give him anything. Her heart was completely occupied by another person.
"Yaya, I really didn't take advantage of you..."
"I know Mingxi! I'm sorry, I was too impulsive last time. I apologize to you for my recklessness..."
"I don't need your apology! Yaya, I won't force you to like me, but you can't even let me stay by your side as a friend? Just a friend!" Yuchi Mingxi emphasized that he didn't want such rights to be given to him.
Being deprived, because he firmly believes that as long as he can be by her side, one day she will know who is the man she can entrust to her life.
"Mingxi, actually a good girl..."
"I just want to be your friend!" Knowing that she was about to refuse, her excuse was too old and he didn't want to hear it.
Yao Wenya nodded helplessly. She could never learn to say no, especially to such a man. But at this moment, she suddenly felt coldness on her back, as if a sharp blade was about to penetrate her. When she looked back, she was as calm as before.
, can't see any difference.
"Yaya, it's really easy for me to find!" An Junnuo went to check the list of tonight's auction and the information of the bidders. When he came back, Yao Wenya and others were missing. Finally, he saw her at the dining table.
Not wanting to see the person Ling Lie hated the most standing next to her, he quickly stepped forward to pull Yao Wenya up.
"Nono, where did you go?" Yao Wenya almost jumped up. She seemed to have seen a savior. Standing with Yuchi Mingxi like this felt suffocating, especially when she always felt that there was a pair of eyes behind her that were full of energy.
Staring at himself with hostility.
"Ariel is looking for you, go quickly!" An Junnuo made any excuse to want Yao Wenya to leave. She was really worried that Ling Lie would get angry at them if he saw her.
"Oh, I know! That Mingxi, let's talk some other time!" Yao Wenya finally found the opportunity and left happily.
She quickly walked to the elevator and then remembered that she didn't know which lounge Ling Lie and the others were in. Forget it, it would be better to talk about it after entering the elevator than to die in embarrassment here.
Fortunately, there is a dedicated elevator girl in the elevator who is responsible for operating the elevator. As soon as he inquired, he knew the floor that Ling Lie and the others were on, so everything down there would be much easier to handle.
After getting out of the elevator, she started to check room by room. At this time, a room attendant walked over from the opposite side. Seeing her sneaky look, she stepped forward to ask.
"Miss...are you looking for President Ling?"
"Yes, how do you know?" Yao Wenya was very surprised.
"I just saw it downstairs. President Ling brought his female companion. Everyone went to take a peek."
The little girl was very shy, just like the elevator girl just now. At first glance, she was the kind of girl Anna mentioned who harbors teenage dreams and fantasies about Ling Lie. Think about it, you are really lucky!
Following the waiter's guidance, she successfully found the room where Ling Lie and the others were. The door was ajar. Just as she was about to knock on the door, she heard Pi Weilun's voice. She wasn't very clear, but she seemed to hear the words "Yao Yao".
. Could it be that what they were talking about was related to me?
"You told me so much just for this last sentence? What's the use of testing me like this? I've already forgotten it!"
"Ariel, I treat you as a friend now, not as a boss. If you really forget and don't care, why don't you dare to face it? You have to figure out what you want! What I saw might really be her.
…”
"Everything has nothing to do with me! It's really best. I want to show her how happy I am now!" Ling Lie gritted his teeth and turned around angrily. He opened the door forcefully and unexpectedly saw a panicked Yao Wenya.
"Um... I didn't disturb you? Nono... Nono said you were looking for me..."
Ling Lie pulled Yao Wenya up, not knowing how much she heard, and turned back to give Pi Weilun a warning look.
