"Ayan, I haven't seen you for so many years, but you still haven't changed at all." Li Lingxing said with emotion.

Xi Yan frowned and said in a deep voice: "You invited me over because you just wanted to say this?"

Li Lingxing's face instantly became a little embarrassed, but since he was in business, he had developed a sense of shame over the years, and he soon smiled: "Didn't I hear that you are getting married, and wanted to congratulate you in person? After all, We have been brothers for so many years, don’t you think so?”

When Xi Yan mentioned the matter of marriage, his expression softened slightly and he said, "Thank you."

Li Lingxing chatted with him about the changes in his alma mater again. Seeing that Xi Yan was not impatient, he took a call and went out.

Only Li Mingming and Xi Yan were left in the box.

Xi Yan sat quietly, waiting for Li Lingxing to come back. Li Mingming poured tea into his cup, but he just raised his eyes and politely thanked him.

Li Mingming licked his nails, and it took him a long time to say something: "Brother Xi, I...I heard that you are getting married, right?"

Xi Yan raised his lowered eyes and frowned slightly. He had clearly admitted his marriage just now. He didn't know what Li Mingming meant by this sentence.

Li Mingming bit his lip and said: "I...I know that Brother Xi is getting married, but I am just a little surprised. Why does Brother Xi suddenly want to get married when he is so young?"

Xi Yan just said lightly: "If you want to marry someone, you will get married naturally. This is human nature."

Li Mingming probed: "Does Brother Xi like her very much?"

Xi Yan was even more confused, but still nodded and said: "I love you very much."

Two words strangled what Li Mingming originally wanted to express in his throat.

She said stiffly: "Brother Xi, have you ever liked anyone before?"

Xi Yan stared at her with sharp eyes, as if judging her intentions.

Li Mingming resisted the pressure and said with a stiff smile: "I don't mean any harm, it's just..."

"No." Xi Yan's tone was decisive and straightforward.

"How could it not be..." Li Mingming thought he would say that everything was in the past, but he did not expect to hear this answer.

How could he have his first heartbeat or fall in love with someone at his age? It was ridiculous.

Xi Yan said firmly again: "No."

Li Mingming closed his eyes hard, opened them again, and opened his mouth: "Then you remember when you were a child, there was a heavy rain in Beizhou City that day, and my clothes were all wet. You and a group of classmates passed by me and gave me a handful. Umbrella?"

Xi Yan's memory has always been very good, and he also had an impression of what Li Mingming said. Looking at Li Mingming's shining eyes, he nodded and said, "Remember."

But then he said: "Because you are Li Lingxing's sister, I gave you that umbrella based on our childhood friendship with him."

Li Mingming was a little disappointed and said: "Is there no other reason?"

Xi Yan shook his head: "No."

Li Mingming knew that the words had reached this point, and even if Xi Yan was not a fool, he could see her intentions.

But his attitude was still as determined as ever, without giving her a thought.

Xi Yan glanced at the time on his phone and said goodbye to her.

Li Mingming watched him stand up, and then stood up: "Brother Xi...I..."

Xi Yan pulled out the chair behind him with a squeak. Seeing that Li Mingming had swallowed his words, he said casually: "I have received all the blessings from you brothers and sisters. Thank you." After saying that, he picked up the official document beside him. Bao, leave in stride.

When Li Lingxing came in, he saw Li Mingming sitting on the chair in despair.

"Well, Xi Yan's temper has been like this since he was a child. No one in our circle knows that his temper is as hard as a stone. Last time I drank with He You and I heard that he also behaved like this towards Mr. He... Don't be too harsh. Take it to your heart." Li Lingxing could only comfort his sister in this way.

Li Mingming shook his head and said: "No, he is not like this..."

He is also a human being of flesh and blood, otherwise he would not have said the word 'very much loved'.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible to give her the umbrella in the first place, so she would be a loner and leave with her classmates holding an umbrella together.

It should be said that Xi Yan is a person with a very strong sense of friend and foe. The reason he gave her the umbrella was because she was Li Lingxing's sister, the sister of a friend, and was included in his protection. But later, their parents stood aside. Opposite, they are naturally excluded.

"Obviously, don't do this." Li Lingxing couldn't see her like this.

"Brother, I understand. It must be because of his father's relationship with Xi Yan's mother that he alienated us." Li Mingming seemed to have realized something, grabbing Li Feng's sleeves with a slightly pleading look.

Li Lingxing frowned and said, "It's obvious what you mean..."

Li Mingming begged: "Brother, can you help me? Help me talk to my dad before Xi Yan gets married before it's too late."

"Obviously, it's not that I don't want to help you, but you also know that Dad and Aunt Xi won't deal with it. What do you want me to say?" Li Lingxing knew what kind of temper his father was, so he asked him to lose face and come to Xi Yi to talk about Li Mingming and Li Mingming. Xi Yan's marriage was so busy that he was rushing to marry his daughter. How could it be possible?

"Brother, if you do as I say, dad will definitely agree." Li Mingming said reluctantly.

Li Lingxing had never been able to do anything about his sister Li Mingming. At this moment, she was crying so hard that he could only listen to her patiently.

"Brother, do you think that family in Beizhou City is stronger than the Xi family?"

"Even if there is a family that is slightly stronger than the Xi family, who is as noble as Xi Yan?"

"Behind him are not only the Xi family, but also the He family, and his half-hidden maternal grandfather's family."

"If we really count, our Li family, not to mention the three families, is probably not as good as the Xi family. My father has always wanted me to get married. Who should I marry to have the status of Xi Yan?"

Li Mingming's analysis was clear and logical.

Her father was blinded by his long-standing hatred and tit-for-tat confrontation with Xi Yi.

But she could see very clearly that if the daughter of any family in Beizhou City married Xi Yan, she would not be able to escape her eight lifetimes of glory and wealth.

Although Li Lingxing didn't agree with Li Mingming's approach, he was just tortured by her and had no choice but to go and talk to Li's father.

Father Li knew more about Xi Yan's marriage situation than they did. Not only did he know that he was getting married, he was also marrying a female star from a small family in Pingyang City.

This matter was revealed by someone from the side of the Xi family personally.

Father Li was also present at the time, and he mocked the Xi family just to watch the excitement.

After listening to Li Lingxing's words, he asked the brother and sister to go to his study.

"Xi Yan, the soon-to-be wife, is from an ordinary background. Xi Yi will definitely not be happy, but you also know that we have been at odds for many years, so she may not be very happy to let Xi Yan marry Ming Ming." Li's father said thoughtfully.

"Dad, Aunt Xi is very nice..." Li Mingming thought that his father did not agree, so he said anxiously.
