Chapter 332 Don’t pretend to be a dog, it’s scary!

Shen Yuan chuckled, "You're too modest. You are my Xiaoke's honored guest, so I should treat you well."

Seeing this, Qi Xiaoke grabbed Lin Yuan's hand with a hint of coquettishness in her tone.

"Mom, please stop teasing Brother Lin Yuan, okay?"

Shen Yuan smiled helplessly, "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. You young people have fun, I'll go greet other guests."

After she finished speaking, she turned and left. Lin Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt a sense of ease in his heart.

"Xiao Ke, your mother is really..." Lin Yuan shook his head helplessly and said with a smile.

Qi Xiaoke couldn't help but laugh, "My mom is like that, she likes to tease people. But she has a good heart, I hope you don't mind."

Lin Yuan smiled and nodded, "Of course I don't mind, your family is very welcoming."

Qi Xiaoke's eyes flashed with shyness, "Thank you, Brother Lin Yuan. Let's go, let's continue walking around."

Not far away, two young men were whispering in the corner. They were Qi Xiaoke's acquaintances, one was called Li Jun and the other was called Wang Xiang.

Li Jun saw Qi Xiaoke brought a dance partner, raised his eyebrows, and said in surprise: "Look, Qi Xiaoke brought a dance partner here, this is something new."

Wang Xiang was also surprised and whispered, "I thought Zhao Mingyu, who was pursuing her, had gotten her, but it seems that he didn't. Qi Xiaoke has always been lukewarm towards Zhao Mingyu, and now she has brought a new face here. I'm afraid there will be something interesting to watch."

The two exchanged a knowing look and continued to observe Qi Xiaoke and Lin Yuan.

About half an hour later, the entrance of the banquet hall suddenly became lively and everyone turned to look.

A young man in a neat suit appeared in a high-profile manner, holding a valuable gift in his hand.

It was Zhao Mingyu, one of Qi Xiaoke's suitors, with a prominent family background and strong connections.

Zhao Mingyu walked steadily towards Qi Xiaoke with a confident smile on his face.

His appearance immediately attracted the attention of the guests and they began to talk about it.

"Look, that's Zhao Mingyu. He is the young master of the Zhao family. I wonder what good things he brought this time." A female guest whispered, her tone full of envy.

"Zhao Mingyu has been pursuing Qi Xiaoke. It seems that he wants to confess his feelings in public this time." Another male guest nodded in agreement, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

Zhao Mingyu walked up to Qi Xiaoke and said with a smile: "Xiaoke, I picked this gift especially for you. I hope you will like it."

When Qi Xiaoke saw Zhao Mingyu, he couldn't help but frown.

She turned her head and glanced at Lin Yuan, fearing that he might misunderstand her, and then said coldly: "Zhao Mingyu, I have told you many times, please stop pestering me."

The smile on Zhao Mingyu's face froze, but he quickly regained his confidence. He said nonchalantly, "Xiao Ke, I just want to express my feelings. You know, I have always cared about you."

Qi Xiaoke's expression became increasingly cold, and her tone was filled with disgust. "Zhao Mingyu, no matter what gift you bring, I will not accept it. I have made my own choice, please respect my decision."

Zhao Mingyu's face turned ugly. He glanced at Lin Yuan who was standing next to Qi Xiaoke, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

He said unwillingly: "Xiao Ke, I really like you, I hope you can reconsider it."

Qi Xiaoke waved his hand impatiently, "Zhao Mingyu, please leave. I won't change my mind." The guests present looked at this scene and started talking. Some felt that Zhao Mingyu was embarrassed to be rejected, while others were surprised at Qi Xiaoke's attitude.

Li Jun and Wang Xiang were watching with great interest. Wang Xiang laughed softly and said, "It looks like Zhao Mingyu is going to be turned away this time."

Li Jun nodded, with a bit of gloating in his eyes, "Yeah, this is going to be fun."

Zhao Mingyu was ruthlessly rejected by Qi Xiaoke. His face turned red and he was shaking with anger.

He is the only son of the Zhao family. When has he ever suffered such humiliation since he was a child?

He angrily smashed the gift in his hand hard, and the porcelain fragments flew everywhere, scaring the guests around him and making them step back.

"Qi Xiaoke!"

Zhao Mingyu gritted his teeth and said, his voice full of resentment and unwillingness, "You actually like this man, a small anchor who sells houses! You are really blind!"

Qi Xiaoke was so angry that she was shaking all over, her eyes were full of anger. She was about to retort, but Lin Yuan smiled slightly, put his hand on her shoulder, and motioned her to calm down.

Lin Yuan's tone was calm, but a cold light flashed in his eyes, "You said I sell houses and am a small anchor, which is true. But why do you look down on these professions?"

Zhao Mingyu was choked by Lin Yuan's words, and was stunned for a moment, then his anger grew even stronger, "You are just a lowly intermediary, how can you compare to the young master of my Zhao family? Qi Xiaoke will lose face if she follows you!"

Lin Yuan sneered and looked at Zhao Mingyu with cold eyes.

"Mr. Zhao, you sound really nice. But your family background is only given to you by your parents. What have you accomplished? I have earned money through my own hard work and I stand here based on my own abilities. What qualifications do you have to look down on me?"

Zhao Mingyu's face turned pale and he was so angry that he almost exploded!
"Who do you think you are? You're just a nobody. How could Qi Xiaoke really like you? She was just confused for a moment!"

Lin Yuan was unmoved and said calmly, "Whether it was a momentary confusion or not is not up to you to decide. Xiaoke has the right to choose, and what about you? Besides showing off your family background, what else can you do?"

"With your temper, you'll bite people when you get angry, Xiaoke, stay away!"

Qi Xiaoke burst out laughing!
Zhao Mingyu was so angry that his breathing was rapid and his voice was sharp, "How dare you talk to me like this? Do you know who I am?"

Lin Yuan glanced at him with contempt. "Of course I know who you are, but do you know who I am? I am Lin Yuan, a man who stands here by my own efforts. If you have the ability, come and try it."

Qi Xiaoke heard Lin Yuan's words and a hint of emotion and pride flashed in his eyes.

She straightened her back and looked at Zhao Mingyu coldly, "Zhao Mingyu, you are right, I just like Lin Yuan. He is really kind to me, but you only use your family background to pressure others. I will never like you."

Zhao Mingyu was completely enraged by these words. He raised his fist and wanted to rush forward, but was stopped by the guests around him.

"That's enough, Zhao Mingyu!" an elderly guest said in a deep voice, "This is a banquet, do you want to cause trouble?"

Zhao Mingyu struggled for a while, and finally threw his hand away angrily, glaring at Lin Yuan fiercely, "Just wait, this matter is not over yet!"

Lin Yuan smiled slightly, not caring at all, "I'm always here to accompany you, but don't act like a dog next time, it's scary!"

Zhao Mingyu was so angry that he almost vomited blood and left the banquet hall angrily!
