Stand-In Boyfriend Fu Zheng Ji
Chapter 346 Feeling sorry for Dad
Mansion Banquet Hall.
The maid opened the heavy door of the restaurant.
What Zhang Ling saw unfolded in front of her was a large and luxurious space.
Gorgeous crystal lamps under the ceiling cast an elegant and gentle light.
Make the whole restaurant look noble and quiet.
Especially the soft music played by the band filled the entire restaurant.
It's like an invisible smoke spreading.
Slowly slowly taking over her mind.
It was hard for her to feel nervous and worried anymore.
A road paved with red carpet.
It extends into the depths of the banquet hall.
The old patriarch specially asked Zhang Ling and Li Xiang to go to the front hand in hand.
Said that they were the protagonists tonight.
Old guys like them are willing to play supporting roles.
Zhang Ling glanced at her father subconsciously.
After getting encouragement from his father.
Then he stepped forward and took Li Xiang's arm.
But Li Xiang did not immediately move to the depths of the banquet hall.
He first looked at the old patriarch and said flatly:
"No, the protagonists today are not just the two of us. There should be three people."
The old patriarch secretly thought that Li Xiang was flattering and wanted him to accompany him forward.
So he smiled and was about to say something polite to excuse himself.
Never thought about it!
The old patriarch noticed that Li Xiang looked at the children next to Zhang Pengtian and waved and said with a smile:
"Xiaodouzi, come to mom and dad. You are the most important protagonist tonight besides mom and dad."
That's right!
In Li Xiang's opinion.
His pursuit of Zhang Ling would have been successful without Xiaodouzi's assistance.
Presumably he and Zhang Ling would not have reached this point.
So he will not easily forget the hero Xiaodouzi.
Xiaodouzi looked at Zhang Ling with an uncontrollable smile on his face.
After getting Zhang Ling's permission.
The little guy came to the middle of them with brisk steps.
The three of them held hands with each other, blooming happy smiles together, and walked on the road of happiness that only belongs to them.
Perhaps Zhang Ling just received clear support from the old patriarch.
So at this time, the onlookers all cast envious eyes and praised them.
Along the way, I saw gorgeous European-style tables and chairs, and a small and exquisite bar, all painted pure white, giving people an aristocratic feel.
A blue and white porcelain vase is placed on each table.
Pink roses bloom softly in the vase.
It matches perfectly with the surrounding elegant furnishings.
The fragrance exuded by the flowers is neither strong nor demonic.
It just vaguely changed her complicated mood at the moment.
After being signaled by the attendant, they stopped.
Then wait until all guests are seated.
Necessary procedures for an engagement include serving tea, pressing tea pots, and wearing rings.
It's going on in the banquet hall.
Whenever there are guests, Zhang Ling must be poured wine.
Li Xiangdu cleverly blocked Zhang Ling's attack.
Especially tonight, Li Xi was extremely well-behaved and sensible.
Not only did he not make things difficult for Zhang Ling with words.
He even took the initiative to save Zhang Ling from drinking.
Not far away, Shangguan Aoxue gritted her teeth when she saw Li Xi's behavior.
If it weren't for Li Pan on the side who kept discouraging him.
Shangguan Aoxue will definitely fight with Li Xi on the spot.
To be honest, if Zhang Ling hadn't known Li Xi for more than a year or two.
I'm afraid that Li Xi's brief forbearance will really make him relax his vigilance.
Therefore, Li Xi is treated as a child in the family who has not grown up.
at this time!
Maybe it was because Li Xiang drank too much.
So I felt a little dizzy after drinking too much alcohol.
The basic procedures for the engagement party have almost been completed.
So Zhang Ling offered to let Li Xiang sober up in the quiet room next to him.
The old patriarch and Zhang Pengtian smiled at each other and agreed to Zhang Ling's proposal.
Wu Man suggested that he should go with Zhang Ling.
But Zhang Pengtian seems to be deliberately creating opportunities for his daughter and Li Xiang to be alone.
So he took the initiative to hold Wu Man back and refused to follow him.
Zhang Ling took advantage of the fact that Li Xiang was still conscious.
He helped Li Xiang sleep on the sofa in the quiet room.
That moment.
Li Xiang deliberately pulled Zhang Ling's body, and when she was completely lying on him, she accidentally kissed his cheek.
But for Zhang Ling, this kiss was obviously different from the past.
This kind of close contact in the past would cause strong inner agitation.
But this time it felt very bland to her.
Zhang Ling couldn't help but begin to suspect that she and Li Xiang had passed the period of passion between lovers.
Li Xiang even pretended to be aggrieved and said:
"It's so heavy. You're weighing me down so much that I can't breathe. Get up quickly."
This is because he dislikes her for being fat!
In today's environment where thinness is considered beautiful.
Zhang Ling naturally didn't want to hear such words.
She immediately pushed him away and stood up straight, pouting unhappily. She raised her hand and slapped Li Xiang hard on the shoulder and asked:
"What did you say? Tell me again if you have the guts."
Li Xiang explained calmly:
"Don't get me wrong! I mean you have a very important place in my heart."
After listening to Li Xiang's explanation.
A proud smile appeared on her face and she said:
"You know how to talk. I'll spare you this time."
The voice just fell.
She heard the door of the quiet room being pushed open by a group of servants.
The maid came over with a bowl of hangover soup in her hand.
He respectfully introduced that the hangover soup was sent by the old patriarch.
It was said that there was a part of the engagement party in which Li Xiang had to be present.
I hope Li Xiang can wake up soon.
Li Xiang stood up and naturally took the sobering soup from the helper's hand.
He put the bowl to his mouth without seeming to think too much.
Just as the soup was about to touch his lips, he stopped.
Taking the opportunity to take the soup bowl away, a strange smile flashed across his face and said to the helper:
"Do you really want to watch me drink all this bowl of hangover soup?"
The maid heard Li Xiang's question.
He looked down at his toes with twinkling eyes and explained:
"The old patriarch has told me that I must see with my own eyes, patriarch, that you have drank all the sobering soup. Otherwise, I will not be able to return my life to the old patriarch."
This reason is too lame.
The old patriarch would never personally give such a strange order to an ordinary domestic helper.
You must know that the domestic helpers of the Li family generally do not have any human rights status.
Any member of the Li tribe can yell at the servants.
Not to mention letting servants supervise the work of the Li clan members.
You might as well meet a more ferocious member of the Li clan.
It is very likely that servants who violate the rules will disappear naturally without anyone noticing.
So he felt that the servant in front of him was replying with the determination to face death.
Because the helper's body was visibly shaking.
Countless small drops of water could be seen on the exposed skin.
It is extremely dazzling under the light of the quiet room.
Zhang Ling on the side was seeing Li Xiang's reaction.
They all began to misunderstand that Li Xiang had a strong interest in the helper in front of him.
That's why she was a little jealous and didn't wait for the helper to answer Li Xiang's question.
But she took the lead and raised her hand to pat Li Xiang's shoulder and said angrily:
"I said you don't want to drink the sobering soup they bring you. What are those squinting eyes looking at on others for nothing?"
Li Xiang did not explain in a humble tone like before.
Instead, he looked at Zhang Ling with a naughty smile and said:
"Sexy? That's a good word! I can clearly hear that you are jealous."
Zhang Ling immediately looked shy and did not dare to look at Li and wanted to say:
"No, no, I don't have any! That stuff is sour and juicy. Why should I eat it if I have nothing to do?"
Li Xiang smiled more intriguingly and said, "Not bad, not bad! I think Li Xiang will like Zhang Ling like you are now."
Zhang Ling sensitively heard the contradiction in Li Xiang's words.
She immediately asked:
"Li Xiang? It's as if you are not Li Xiang, but someone else is acting as your substitute."
Li Xiang looked at Zhang Ling with embarrassment and tried his best to explain:
"Huh? No. Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, I just made a slip of the tongue."
He thought to himself that he had not been Li Xiang for a long time.
Today, Li Xiang's true form was restored for the last time.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Ling mistakenly thought that he had become the stand-in for Li Xiang.
This couldn't help but make him feel extremely ridiculous.
No.
Can't say it's ridiculous.
This should be a blessing for him.
Because the more this happens, the more it proves that he is closer to appearing in front of Chen Jian as a woman, the more confident he is.
It was also because of Zhang Ling's interruption.
It made Li Xiang forget for a moment that there was something wrong with the hangover soup in his hand.
That's why I naturally drank the hangover soup in front of the helper.
The helper was like escaping from a devil's cave.
After taking the soup bowl, he hurriedly escaped.
Zhang Ling's attention was entirely on Li Xiang.
I didn't even notice that the helper's reaction was abnormal.
But she was very sensitive to Li Xiang's reaction tonight and felt strange.
It is obvious that the current Li Xiang is different from the Li Xiang she has always known.
But the main difference is in feel.
I didn't notice any abnormalities in the external appearance.
Especially when I heard Li wanted to say a "slip of the tongue."
Zhang Ling obviously felt a sense of déjà vu.
It was just when she was about to think of Muzi.
Someone rashly pushed open the door of the quiet room.
Zhang Ling's thinking analysis was interrupted.
Zhang Ling was so angry that she just wanted to scold who was so annoying?
She turned around and found that it was Xiaodouzi who came in.
The child shouted "Mom" after confirming that Zhang Ling was here.
Xiaodouzi didn't feel safe enough.
Not seeing Zhang Ling in a strange environment made me feel a little nervous.
That's why he left Zhang Pengtian and came to Zhang Ling alone.
She immediately stood up and prepared to face Xiaodouzi.
I thought it would be better if I took Li Xiang with me.
This is when she discovered that Li Xiang fell asleep after just drinking the sobering soup.
Zhang Ling just thought that Li Xiang was trying to avoid her questioning just now.
That's why I pretended to sleep on purpose.
She was a little angry and deliberately kicked Li Xiang's calf before leaving.
Xiang tried to remind Li Xiang that their daughter Xiaodouzi was coming.
Tell him to follow quickly.
When holding little beans in your arms.
Listening to the girl telling her thoughts and worries in her arms.
Zhang Ling was so distressed that she could only say comfortingly:
"What a stupid kid! Don't say such stupid things again. Look, aren't mom and dad always here?"
Xiaodouzi's doubtful voice sounded in her ears:
"But where's dad?"
Zhang Ling then pushed Xiaodouzi away from her arms and looked around and said:
"Isn't dad here..."
While she was talking, she didn't see Li Xiang around and stopped talking.
Instead, he looked at the sofa in the distance with a look of disbelief.
Then he continued with an angry tone:
"Oh my God! Li Xiang, my daughter is looking for you. Is it interesting for you to pretend to be asleep somewhere? Stop sleeping! Come here quickly..."
Xiaodouzi on the side may look like Zhang Ling when she is angry.
So some trembling hands stretched out their hands to tug on Zhang Ling's clothes.
He looked up at Zhang Ling and called "Mom".
Only then did Zhang Ling realize that her tone was inappropriate.
He quickly calmed down his anger, leaned over with a smile on his face, reached out and gently touched his little face and explained:
"Child, don't be afraid! Mom is not talking about you. Mom is talking about your irresponsible bad father, who has become more and more hateful recently. When my daughter is looking for him, he can sleep wherever he wants and remain indifferent."
Xiaodouzi put his finger to his mouth and intimately signaled Zhang Ling to be quiet.
I feel bad that Li Xiang was woken up by his mother again.
The little guy then lowered his voice and said:
"Mom, don't scream. Xiaodouzi knows that dad is very tired from work on weekdays! Just let dad sleep a little longer."
The attentive Xiaodouzi discovered that her father would habitually lean on the car and squint for a while before picking her up from school.
I tried to use that moment to regain my energy.
You can drive her home in high spirits.
To be honest, Xiaodouzi was very happy to be taken home by Li Xiang every day.
But after seeing Li Xiang's father's way of catching up on sleep.
Xiaodouzi felt very distressed.
Now my father finally has the opportunity to sleep comfortably on the sofa for a while.
Naturally, the little guy couldn't bear to disturb Li Xiang.
Zhang Ling naturally didn't know how hard Li Xiang felt in Xiaodouzi's eyes.
She still wanted to express her opinion "but".
But Xiaodouzi did not give Zhang Ling this chance and said:
"Before I came in, I thought I heard them discussing the news about Aunt Yan Yuan."
Zhang Ling heard the news about Yan Yuan.
She leaned over excitedly, put her hands on Xiaodouzi's shoulders and asked:
"Quick, tell mom, what's going on with your Aunt Yan Yuan?"
Xiaodouzi shook his head with a worried look and said:
"I don't know. They seem to think that Xiaodouzi is a child. They are not willing to tell the truth to Xiaodouzi. But Xiaodouzi looks at the way they talk. It seems that Aunt Yan Yuan's situation is not good."
Zhang Ling couldn't hold herself any longer after hearing this.
She desperately wanted to know Yan Yuan's safety.
So he rushed towards the door of the quiet room without any scruples.
I didn't take a few steps before I realized it again.
I wonder if Li Xiang is really asleep?
It was too unsafe for her to leave Xiaodouzi alone in this room.
So she turned back and quickly came to the sofa and said:
"Hey, Li Xiang, did you hear that? There is news from Yan Yuan. If you are not asleep, get up immediately and come with me to find out the situation."
That’s it!
About ten seconds passed.
Li Xiang still fell asleep without any reaction.
She may be thinking about Yan Yuan at this time.
There is no awareness of a person who is still conscious.
Why did he fall asleep so quickly after drinking the hangover soup the maid sent him?
She also complained that Li wanted to deceive people.
Li wanted to say that he would stay with her tonight.
At this moment, he was sleeping like a dead pig.
never mind!
Anyway, she only went out to find out the latest situation of Yan Yuan.
Maybe I'll be back soon.
Then let Li Xiang sleep peacefully for a while as Xiaodouzi said.
Before you go!
He glanced at Li Xiang, who was sleeping soundly.
I thought even if he was pretending to sleep.
You will also catch a cold if you sleep like this.
So she found a blanket in a cabinet not far away and covered Li Xiang's body.
The mother and daughter then held hands and walked toward the door.
suddenly!
The door to the quiet room was pushed open again.
The appearance of Qi Diaozhe made Zhang Ling feel uncomfortable all over.
She subconsciously pulled Xiaodouzi behind her and asked:
"Qi Diaozhe, this is the room reserved for the head of the Li family. Outsiders will never be allowed in without permission. How can you come in? Get out of here immediately."
Qi Diaozhe said with a calm smile:
"Don't get excited! The reason why I can come in is naturally allowed."
Zhang Ling asked:
"Who?"
Qi Diaozhe said:
"It doesn't matter who it is. But I know you must want to know the latest news about Yan Yuan now."
Zhang Ling said excitedly:
"How is she? Tell me quickly!"
Qi Diaozhe looked at Xiaodouzi beside him and said with a playful smile:
"What I'm going to say next is not suitable for children. Are you sure you want me to say it in front of a child?"
