Lin Xiao nodded, and then said to Yuan Zheng: "Tell Zhao Guangwei that I will definitely be there."
"yes!"
Yuan Zheng nodded heavily.
After Yuan Zheng left, Liu Shiqi asked with some embarrassment: "Brother Lin, is it because of the matter at the orphanage that you and Zhao Guangwei were unhappy?"
"It has nothing to do with the welfare home. That Zhao Guangwei is narrow-minded and can't see anyone more capable than him. I didn't visit him after I came to Jingnan, so he criticized me. I established the Lin Group to compete with the Yilin Group.
, it also caused Jingnan to be in chaos for a while and caused trouble to Jingnan Yamen, so he hated me even more... But don’t worry, these are all trivial matters."
Hearing what Lin Xiao said, Liu Shiqi finally felt relieved.
"I wonder what a banquet in upper class society is like?"
Liu Shiqi imagined the banquet she had seen on TV and talked to herself.
"You'll know then."

Lin Xiao smiled.
Time flies.
On the night of the banquet, Lin Xiao drove Liu Shiqi and stopped in the parking lot of the Maillon Hotel.
After getting off the car, Lin Xiao came to the passenger door, opened the door and then held Liu Shiqi's arm to let her get out of the car.
Liu Shiqi's face turned slightly red, and she said with some embarrassment: "I feel as if I have become the wealthy daughter in a TV series."
"As long as I'm here, you will be the daughter of a wealthy family."
Lin Xiao joked.
Liu Shiqi became even more shy and lowered her head involuntarily.
"Keep your head up and be confident. You are very beautiful to begin with, no worse than those so-called wealthy daughters."
Lin Xiao encouraged.
With Lin Xiao's encouragement, Liu Shiqi finally became more confident. She tried her best to hold her head and chest high, holding Lin Xiao's hand and walking with him towards the Maillon Hotel.
He was surrounded by people who were going to the Mellon Hotel for a banquet, and most of them were couples or couples.
These people are all dressed very elegantly, with suits and leather shoes for men and fluttering dresses for women, full of high-class atmosphere.
Being in such an environment, Liu Shiqi felt as if she was in a dream.
However, as soon as they arrived at the door, two security guards in front of the Mellon Hotel stopped Lin Xiao and Liu Shiqi.
"Please show me the invitation, thank you."
A security guard stretched out his hand in front of Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao frowned - he didn't have an invitation.
He came to the banquet because he was "invited" by Zhao Guangwei. He didn't know in advance that he needed an invitation to enter, so he was naturally surprised to be stopped by the security guard.
"You still need invitations to this banquet?"
Lin Xiao asked.
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of laughter all around.
The men and women who came to the banquet nearby all cast disdainful glances at Lin Xiao and Liu Shiqi, as if they were looking at clowns.
The two security guards at the door did not hide the disdain on their faces.
One of the security guards scolded him very rudely: "Nonsense, our banquet is so high-end. The guests who come to the banquet are all the upper class people in southern Beijing. They are either high-ranking officials or business tycoons. Do you think that just any cat or dog can attend?"
Another security guard snorted coldly: "Do you have an invitation? If you don't have an invitation, get out. This is not a place for people like you to come!"
Lin Xiao was a little annoyed.
He didn't care about face. After so many years of hard work on the battlefield, he ignored life and death. What did a little face mean to him?
But now he is not alone, Liu Shiqi is also there.
He doesn't think about himself, but he must think about Liu Shiqi!
With so many people here, how could he embarrass Liu Shiqi?
"I am a guest invited by your distinguished guests. You cannot bear the consequences of not letting us in!"
As soon as Lin Xiao finished speaking, a guest who came to the banquet covered his mouth and laughed, and asked in a sinister manner: "Who is this distinguished guest you are talking about? You might as well say the name so that we can all listen.
listen!"
"Yes, yes, if you have the ability to say your name, who can't just brag?"
So many people ridiculed her together that Liu Shiqi lowered her head deeply and did not dare to look up at anyone.
"The person who invited us to the banquet is Zhao Guangwei from Jingnan Yamen."
Lin Xiao suppressed the anger in his heart and said.
Upon hearing the name Zhao Guangwei, the surrounding guests and the two security guards were stunned for a moment, and then they all held their stomachs and laughed.
"Zhao Guangwei? You said you were invited by Zhao Guangwei? Are you kidding me? Zhao Guangwei is the top leader of the Jingnan Yamen. How could a person of his noble status invite a small role like you to such a high-end banquet?"
"How dare you use Mr. Zhao's name when you brag without asking any questions? Aren't you afraid that Mr. Zhao will give you an order and put you two into the Jingnan Prison?"
"These two are so funny. It's worth coming here tonight, so worth it hahaha..."
So many people laughed together, and Liu Shiqi couldn't stand it anymore.
She lowered her head, pulled Lin Xiao's sleeves, and said, "Brother Lin, let's go. We won't be attending this banquet..."
Liu Shiqi's timid appearance made Lin Xiao extremely angry.
Of course, the target of his anger was not Liu Shiqi, but the group of people in front of him.
These dogs look down upon others, and words like trash can't even describe them!
"In that case, don't blame me for being rude."
After Lin Xiao said this, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Zhao Guangwei.
In less than half a minute, a young woman in her twenties appeared at the door of the Mellon Hotel and ran quickly towards it.
This woman is called Zhao Rong, the daughter of Zhao Guangwei.
Her appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"It's Zhao Rong, Zhao Guangwei's daughter!"
"Miss Zhao Rong is here. Now there is a good show to watch. These two guys dare to use Zhao Guangwei's name. Now that they are here, let's see what they do!"
"Zhao Rong's temper is not ordinary. These two little characters who pretend to be powerful will probably be punished by her!"
The surrounding guests were talking a lot, all looking like they were watching a good show.
The two security guards rushed forward and said to Zhao Rong, who was sweating profusely along the way: "Miss Zhao, these two guys lied to us and said that they were distinguished guests invited by your father.
,Fortunately we saw through them and stopped them."
"Miss Zhao, what do you think of these two guys? Do you want us to drive them out?"
Zhao Rong was panting, and after wiping the sweat from her forehead, she looked at Lin Xiao and Liu Shiqi.
Then, she said angrily: "Who asked you to stop Mr. Lin and Miss Liu? They are distinguished guests invited by my father!"
As soon as these words came out, there was silence all around.
