Rebirth of the wealthy daughter

Chapter 60 Engagement Banquet

The next day

According to the time agreed with Xia Li, Zhao Yifan came to the 'Golden Lady' to pick her up. Xia Li was already sitting on the sofa waiting.

When he saw Xia Li's dress, Zhao Yifan couldn't help being amazed. The bright red evening dress outlined Xia Li's exquisite figure, and the breast-wrapped design revealed Xia Li's exquisite collarbone. High heels, hair coiled up high, only fixed with a hairpin, looks very beautiful.

At exactly eleven o'clock, the 'Emperor' Hotel was crowded with people, and it was very lively. Almost the celebrities from the entire H city came to this engagement banquet between the Han family and the Meng family, and the scene looked very grand.

When Xia Li walked slowly into the venue holding Zhao Yifan's arm, she was so amazed that everyone immediately looked at her.

At this time, Meng Jingyi and Han Yuxi had already greeted everyone in the venue. Han Yuxi was expressionless the whole time, until Xia Li appeared, Han Yuxi couldn't help but cast his eyes on her. Li held Zhao Yifan's arm, Han Yuxi's eyes turned cold.

Xia Li and Zhao Yifan walked towards the two of them, with a slight smile on their faces, and handed the gift box in front of them: "Young Master Han, congratulations."

Han Yuxi looked indifferently, looked at Xia Li coldly, and had no intention of reaching out to take it.

Seeing this, Meng Jingyi took it with a coquettish smile, and said to Xia Li in a sweet voice: "We are already very happy that sister can come, so why bother."

Her face was calm, but Meng Jingyi's heart was already turbulent, her eyes were looking at Xia Li's hands inadvertently, wishing she could rush forward and tear her hands off Zhao Yifan's arms, but she couldn't, so she became even more furious .

Zhao Yifan congratulated Han Yuxi with a fake smile: "Cousin, congratulations."

Han Yuxi glanced at Xia Li, then set his gaze on Zhao Yifan, and replied coldly, "Thank you."

The words were obviously full of displeasure.

Xia Li and Zhao Yifan didn't care, they just nodded lightly to them, and then retreated to the side hand in hand.

From the moment he entered the venue, Xia Li chatted and laughed with Zhao Yifan, that bright smile immediately attracted all the men present and attracted the jealousy of many women.

Standing beside Han Yuxi, Meng Jingyi looked at Xia Li and Zhao Yifan from time to time, gnashing her teeth with hatred in her heart, especially when she saw Xia Li smiling brightly at Zhao Yifan and acting ambiguously, Meng Jingyi's heart grew even stronger. It's hot.

Han Yuxi naturally also noticed the interaction between the two, his eyes became more and more cold, and his whole body exuded a cold aura.

Xia Li noticed the gazes of the two, the smile on the corners of her lips deepened, and her behavior with Zhao Yifan became more intimate. She glanced at Meng Jingyi from the corner of her eye and noticed her tense mood. Whispering softly in his ear, Meng Jingyi almost blew up.

"Brother Yuxi, I'm not feeling well. I want to go to the rest room to rest." Meng Jingyi turned her head with a pale face, and said pitifully to Han Yuxi.

Han Yuxi glanced at her, then nodded without any emotion.

Seeing this, Meng Jingyi raised her hand, pretending to press her temple, while frequently looking in the direction of Xia Li and Zhao Yifan, with a look of coldness in her eyes.

She didn't see Han Yuxi who was behind her watching her leave, with an inscrutable and mysterious smile on the corner of her mouth.

Not long after Meng Jingyi left, Zhao Yifan's cell phone kept ringing. He didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but thinking that today's engagement banquet was not what Meng Jingyi wanted in the first place, he didn't want to appease her at this time, for fear that things wouldn't go smoothly.

After thinking about it, Zhao Yifan gave Xia Li an apologetic look, then walked to the corner, picked up the phone, and after a while, walked through the crowd and quickly walked towards the bathroom.

About Zhao Yifan's every move, Xia Li saw in his eyes, smiled coldly in his heart, and suddenly remembered in his mind that when he was with Zhao Yifan in his previous life, he often answered the phone in such a panic behind his back. It must be Meng Jingyi calling.

I was so stupid that I didn't have any doubts at all.

Now, looking at the similar scene in front of her, Xia Li only felt a burst of irony in her heart.

There was still half an hour before the engagement ceremony began. From time to time, someone came over to exchange greetings with Xia Li. Xia Li kept smiling and chatted with them in a decent manner.

In the end, Xia Li really couldn't bear the atmosphere of the banquet, so she found an excuse and quickly escaped from this depressing place.

Quietly coming to the balcony outside the venue, Xia Li looked at the empty scenery in the distance, and her depressed mood gradually improved.

Xia Li took a deep breath, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Zhao Liting has always been quiet. After greeting all the guests with Han Jingtian, she found an excuse to leave. Originally, she wanted to come to the balcony to get some air, but unexpectedly, she saw Xia Li's figure.

For Xia Li, Zhao Liting still has a deep impression.

Hearing the sound behind her, Xia Li turned her head to look at the person who came. When she found that it was Zhao Liting, Xia Li smiled and nodded at her: "Madam Han."

"Miss Xia, what a coincidence." Zhao Liting walked slowly to Xia Li's side, and smiled kindly at her: "Unexpectedly, Miss Xia came back to attend the engagement banquet of this child Yu Xi."

Zhao Liting naturally knew that Xia Li was on the invitation list, but she thought that according to Xia Li's thoughts on Han Yuxi, she should not come.

Xia Li understood the meaning of Zhao Liting's words, and smiled lightly: "Madam Han, if you can't be a lover, you can still choose to be friends, but you can rest assured that I will not be entangled with Han Yuxi."

Zhao Liting hurriedly opened her mouth to explain: "I didn't mean that, Miss Xia, don't get me wrong."

Xia Li shook her head: "I know, it's just that anyone would think that way, and I'm just telling Mrs. Han what I really think in my heart."

Zhao Liting looked at the woman in front of her in astonishment, she didn't expect her to be so straightforward, and her affection for her continued to rise.

Xia Li didn't know that Zhao Liting's opinion of her had changed, so she continued: "Besides, Meng Jingyi is my half-sister, and now that she is engaged, my father will naturally invite me, so I have to come .”

Isn't Xia Li still clear about Meng Xian's thoughts?
It's nothing more than wanting to show off in front of her. To be honest, Xia Li doesn't care about these things at all. She even thinks that whether it's Meng Xian or Xu Huan, such an approach is very naive .

What's there to show off!
Listening to Xia Li's words, Zhao Liting felt that what she said made sense, after thinking about it, she finally decided to tell Xia Li what was in her heart.

"Miss Xia, there is something I want to tell you, is that okay?" Zhao Liting asked Xia Li for her opinion.

Hearing Zhao Liting's words, although Xia Li was puzzled, she still nodded lightly: "Madam Han, please tell me."

Zhao Liting couldn't help sighing: "It's about Yuxi's child."

Xia Li didn't say anything when she heard the words, but just quietly waited for Zhao Liting to continue.

"Actually, today's engagement banquet was not voluntary by the child. It can be seen that he is very resistant and repulsive. Before that, Yuxi had always refused to let his grandfather manipulate his marriage, because he didn't want to follow his father's lead." follow suit."

"But...under my persuasion, Yu Xi finally chose to compromise. Now when things really happen, I don't know if I made the right choice by persuading him like that."

Especially after seeing that Han Yuxi's face was tense all day long, and her breath became colder, Zhao Liting asked herself more than once, did she really do something wrong?

But the arrow was on the string and had to be sent.

Even if Zhao Liting regretted it in her heart, she also knew that there was no turning back when she opened her bow.

Looking at Han Yuxi, Zhao Liting seemed to see herself and Han Yuchen back then, and couldn't help feeling sad.

Xia Li keenly felt Zhao Liting's desolate mood, knowing that she remembered the matter between herself and Han Yuxi's father, she couldn't help but comfort her: "Mrs. Han, Han Yuxi is already an adult, he knows What you are doing, you are at most persuading, the real decision-maker is Han Yuxi, and it is not your fault."

"Since Han Yuxi has already made a choice, it means that he is ready to bear the consequences of his choice. You should trust Han Yuxi, and believe that since he decided to marry Meng Jingyi, he must have his reasons. Perhaps, Han Yuxi Maybe Yu Xi really likes Meng Jingyi?"

Although this possibility is not great, Xia Li still used this as a reason to comfort Zhao Liting.

It's not easy for her, is it?
Zhao Liting turned her head and looked at Xia Li in astonishment. Unexpectedly, she would comfort herself in turn. She is really different.

Thinking of this, Zhao Liting couldn't help but sigh: "Actually, if you really have to choose, I'd rather Yuxi choose you."

This is Zhao Liting's heartfelt words.

Although Meng Jingyi looks cute and cute on the surface, Zhao Liting still can't fall in love with her. She always feels that Meng Jingyi hides herself too deliberately, and she has such thoughts at a young age, I'm afraid it's not easy.

Xia Li didn't expect Zhao Liting to say similar words to Han Qiaochu, and was shocked by Zhao Liting's words for a while.

Looking at Zhao Liting, Xia Li couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, her mind was full of Zhao Liting's words, and after a long time, she slowly came back to her senses.

After sorting out her thoughts, Xia Li said to Zhao Liting: "Mrs. Han, maybe Han Yuxi and I are not suitable, and now he is about to get engaged. If this is the case, don't say any more. I'm afraid others will misunderstand. It’s not good to cause trouble for each other.”

Although she didn't know the meaning of Zhao Liting's words, Xia Li still had an extra heart, and she didn't want to show her true emotions.

Xia Li's words made Zhao Liting feel even more regretful, but she also knew that what Xia Li said was the truth, so after Xia Li said this, Zhao Liting did not continue this topic, but kept silent .

Xia Li glanced at the venue through the crack of the door, and then said to Zhao Liting: "Mrs. Han, the ceremony is about to start. It's not good if you're not present at this time."

Xia Li reminded Zhao Liting.
