It can be said that Jingnan Yamen basically did not contribute to the rescue of Liu Shiqi and Liu Mei.
But now that Li Zhilin and Li Ziran were imprisoned and handed over such a huge amount of property, some people in the Yamen began to have other ideas.
They thought that Lin Xiao knew in advance that there was such a deposit, so he took Li Zhilin out of the prison in order to get some words out of him.
Some people even doubted whether Lin Xiao misappropriated the money or took part of it.
Of course, these are all rumors, but there are people in Jingnan Yamen who hold this view, which means that Jingnan Yamen is hostile to Lin Xiao.
In fact, due to Chen Wei's relationship, the relationship between Lin Xiao and Jingnan Yamen was originally at odds.
And because of the struggle between the Lin Group and the Yilin Group, a major earthquake occurred in southern Beijing.
Therefore, it is normal for Zhao Guangwei, the top leader of the Jingnan Yamen, to have complaints about Lin Xiao, and it is understandable that the Jingnan Yamen as a whole is hostile to Lin Xiao.
But Lin Xiao didn't care about any of this.
"that's it?"
Lin Xiao asked with a smile.
Yuan Zheng shook his head and continued: "Three days later, there will be a banquet at the Maillon Hotel in southern Beijing. Many upper-class people in southern Beijing will attend. Some big shots will also be present, and Zhao Guangwei will also go."
"Banquet? I'm not interested."
Lin Xiao immediately refused because he really had no interest at all.
Coming from a military background, what he dislikes most is having banquets and drinking parties.
Aren’t banquets and cocktail parties a place where dandies and so-called successful people have fun?
As the nine-star commander, Lin Xiao protects his family and country to protect the Dragon Kingdom and protect the people of the Dragon Kingdom from living and working in peace and contentment, rather than accompanying those people to linger in entertainment venues.
Not to mention going to such a banquet, just hearing about it made Lin Xiao sneer.
But Yuan Zheng sighed helplessly: "Zhao Guangwei said that he has something to talk to you about, so he hopes that you, commander-in-chief, can be there when the time comes."
Lin Xiao's face gradually became serious.
This Zhao Guangwei has too much airs!
The identity of Lin Xiao, the nine-star commander, has not been made public in southern Beijing, and only a few people know that he is the national protector of the Dragon Kingdom.
But even if this Zhao Guangwei didn't know the identity of Lin Xiao, the nine-star commander, and only regarded him as the chairman of an ordinary business consortium, he shouldn't put on such a posture!
Who are you showing off to?
"Commander, if you don't want to go, I will help you refuse him."
Yuan Zheng said seriously.
Lin Xiao was going to nod, but when he looked at Liu Shiqi, he suddenly laughed.
"Shi Qi, do you want to attend this banquet?"
Liu Shiqi couldn't help being startled when she heard Lin Xiao's question.
She has lived in the Qinhuai Welfare Institution since she was a child. She has never attended a banquet or even an ordinary cocktail party.
Now when she heard Lin Xiao asking herself if she wanted to attend such a high-end banquet, her heart almost jumped out of her throat!
"Can I?"
Liu Shiqi asked excitedly.
"Of course, Aunt Liu, if you want to go too..."
Before Lin Xiao finished speaking, Liu Mei shook her head and exhaled: "I'd better forget it. There are still many things to be busy with at the orphanage, and I don't have time. Lin Xiao, just take Shi Qi and have fun."
