Chapter 168: "Not a Simple Dinner Party (1)"

Originally, Lin Zi had always felt that this Xu family's banquet was just an ordinary banquet, but it wasn't until that morning that the Xu family specially sent a representative to pick him up and give him a dress and shoes, and Lin Zi felt that this banquet didn't seem to be the usual banquet he had attended in the past.

Early in the morning, Lin Zi was still asleep when he was woken up by Sister-in-law Lin's voice.

"Xiao Zi, Xiao Zi, there are guests coming, don't sleep."

Sister-in-law Lin kept knocking in front of Lin Zi's door.

Lin Zi vaguely heard the voice, opened his eyes in a daze, touched his mobile phone on the bed, glanced at the time, it was only seven o'clock in the morning Beijing time, Lin Zi really didn't want to pay attention to the voice of Sister-in-law Lin outside the door, so he turned around and covered himself with a pillow.

Sister-in-law Lin knocked for a long time, but when she saw that there was still no reaction inside, she couldn't go directly into the room, so she turned around and went downstairs, facing the guests of the Lin family, and smiled awkwardly at Lin's father and mother.

Sister-in-law Lin walked up to Mother Lin and whispered a few words, Mother Lin got up from the table and smiled at the visitor: "You came early in the morning, you shouldn't have eaten breakfast, you're welcome, just treat it as your own home, sit down and eat, I'll go up and see Xiaozi." ”

After speaking, Lin Mu turned around and went upstairs.

"Lin Zi, Lin Zi."

Mother Lin knocked on the door a few times, but Lin Zi did not reply.

So, Lin Mu opened the door directly and walked in.

Seeing that Lin Zi was still sleeping soundly on the bed, Lin's mother directly lifted Lin Zi's quilt.

Lin Zi felt a sudden chill on his body, and complained half-asleep: "Mom, what are you doing?" ”

"Don't you sleep, do you know what day it is?"

"What?"

Lin Zi half-squinted as he pulled back the cup that had been lifted.

"Don't forget, we're going to Xu's house for a banquet today."

"Ah, I know, I haven't forgotten, but it's not a dinner party, it's still early, it's almost the past after lunch, besides, it's not a big scene, it's just an ordinary family dinner, I really want to sleep now, Mom, you have mercy, let me sleep a little longer, please."

"Family dinner? Who told you it was a family feast? ”

Mother Lin asked at Lin Zi.

"Huh? What else could it be? ”

"Do you know that this banquet held by the Xu family is a celebration banquet for the eldest prince Xu."

"Xu Chenrui's celebration banquet, I know, what's this."

Lin Zi said nonchalantly.

"What's this? Let me tell you what this is, this banquet is not an ordinary banquet, the Xu family has invited a lot of media, business bigwigs, and many artists, you know how many little stars outside want to come and rub it, but they don't have this opportunity, you still think it's an ordinary family banquet. ”

"Huh? It's just a celebration feast, as for it. ”

"The scale of this banquet is very large, and there is a red carpet link, which is why, your father pushed other activities, and he has to go to the reason, just take this opportunity to talk about a few cooperations, so, you get ready to prepare, one o'clock in the afternoon is the red carpet link, to be precise, you still have six hours to prepare, do you think you have time? Also, the Xu family has already sent a representative to wait for you downstairs, are you sure you can't go down to have a look, it's not good to let the guests just wait. ”

After finishing speaking, Lin Mu turned around and left.

Xu family representatives? Wait for yourself?

Lin Zi tried hard to recall what Mother Lin said, no way, although she still wants to sleep now, but Mother Lin said so, I'm afraid that if she sleeps again, Mother Lin will definitely steam or braise herself.

So, Lin Zi rubbed his eyes, put on a coat casually, and prepared to go downstairs to see which representative had come to his house.

Because the Korean drama I watched the night before was too touching, Lin Zi was so moved that he used up a whole pack of tissues, which caused Lin Zi's eyes to be particularly swollen this morning, like fish bubble eyes.

Lin Zi rubbed his eyes as he walked down the stairs.

"Xiaozi, you finally woke up, Xu Gongzi has been waiting for you here for a long time."

Father Lin saw Lin Zi's figure walking down and said to Lin Zi.

Xu Gongzi? Xu Shen? Why did Xu Shen come to his house so early?

Lin Ziman turned his head suspiciously and looked at Xu Gongzi who was sitting on the side.

"Good morning."

The moment the other party saw Lin Zi, he greeted him with a smile.

Just listening to the voice, Lin Zi felt very familiar, and the moment he saw the other party's face, Lin Zi couldn't help but widen his eyes and rubbed it vigorously with his hands.

Xu Chenrui!

He, he, how did he get here?

"You, you, you, why did you come to my house?"

Lin Zi pointed at Xu Chenrui and asked with a surprised expression.

"I'm here to bring you this."

Xu Chenrui pointed to the gift bag in his hand and said with a smile at Lin Zi.

Lin Zi looked at Xu Chenrui's sudden appearance, and was surprised for a long time, almost thinking that he was dreaming.

After being sure that he was not dreaming, Lin Zi thought that he was still wearing pajamas, so he immediately ran upstairs desperately.

No, why did Xu Chenrui come to his home at this time. He didn't stay where he was supposed to be, and came to his own home, what was the matter.

Lin Zi quickly ran back to the room, and at the moment when he closed his door, he suddenly felt that he had no face to see anyone, how could he see a guest like this, it was over, and his image was completely gone.

Lin Zi made a series of movements, and after running back upstairs, he left Lin's father, Lin's mother, and Xu Chenrui looking at each other.

Father Lin smiled at Xu Chenrui a little embarrassed and said, "Master Xu, don't see outside, the little girl is like this." ”

"No, no, uncle."

Seeing this, Mother Lin said a few words in Father Lin's ear, so she walked upstairs to Lin Zi's room.

"Why are you lying in bed again, what are you doing? Why haven't you cleaned it up yet? ”

Mother Lin looked at Lin Zi who was lying on the bed and asked.

"Mom, why did he come to our house, what is he doing here?"

When Lin Zi saw Mother Lin, he immediately sat up from the bed quickly, pulled Mother Lin's arm and asked.

"He came to give you an invitation as the host of the banquet, and by the way, he gave you a dress."

"No, Mom, why did he ask him to deliver my dress?"

Lin Zi looked at Mother Lin and asked puzzled.

"Well, it seems that Xu Gongzi said that you were attending as his female companion, so I specially brought you a dress and shoes that matched what he was wearing today."

Mother Lin explained to Lin Zi.

"Wait, Mom, what kind of female companion? Why don't I know, isn't it just going to a banquet, why is it a red carpet and a female companion? ”

Lin Zi was completely confused, how could it be completely different from what she expected.

"They are asking to bring companions to this banquet, haven't you even read the invitation to this banquet carefully? Xu Gongzi said that he gave it to you very early. ”

"Invitation?"

Lin Zi then remembered that Xu Shen gave himself an envelope before the exam, because he was busy eating, he didn't read the content of this invitation carefully, and later, because he had been throwing the bag there after returning home, he had never opened it at all, let alone what was written inside, and he always thought that this was just an ordinary banquet.

Thinking of this, Lin Zi immediately got up from the bed, ran to the cloakroom and began to rummage through the boxes and cabinets to find the bag containing the envelope.

"Xiao Zi, what are you looking for?"

Mother Lin saw Lin Zi running to the cloakroom in a hurry, and couldn't help but ask.

"I was looking for the invitation they gave me before, and I put it in a bag, why can't I find it."

Lin Zi answered Lin's mother's question while hurriedly searching.

"You, everything is messed up, and I can't find such an important thing now, I don't know what to say about you."

Mother Lin looked at Lin Zi with a look of hatred that iron could not become steel and said.

"Ah, I found it."

Finally, after a period of searching, Lin Zi finally found the bag in the corner.

Lin Zi opened the bag, fortunately, the envelope was still there.

Originally, this bag was going to be donated together with other old clothes, but fortunately, the people who came to collect the old things in the past two days were late, so they didn't give it away, otherwise they really couldn't find it at all.

Lin Zi took out the envelope and walked to the side of the bed and opened it to see that it was the invitation letter that Xu Shen handed over to him at that time.

After Lin Zi took out the invitation letter and looked at the content carefully, Lin Zi's eyes couldn't help but widen.

It is really as my mother said, those who carry invitations need to travel with a companion.

However, why is his identity written on this invitation letter as Xu Chenrui's female companion, instead of a separate invitation letter.

Lin Zi suddenly remembered that Xu Shen told him not to lose this invitation letter, and said that Xu Chenrui personally handed it over to Xu Shen and asked Xu Shen to hand it over to him.

Lin Zi suddenly felt that he had been tricked by their Xu family.

Well, it's not that I let myself attend this banquet at will, but I must attend as Xu Chenrui's female companion.

What a sinister and cunning one!

Lin Zi couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"Xiao Zi, what's wrong with you? What's on your invitation? ”

Seeing her daughter's surprised and extremely angry expression, Mother Lin was a little curious.

"Mom, see for yourself."

As he spoke, Lin Zi handed the invitation to Mother Lin.

Mother Lin took the invitation and looked at it, and sure enough, Lin Zi attended as Xu Chenrui's female companion.

"What's wrong? It seems that this Xu Gongzi is right, you are indeed going to attend as his female companion, and it is no wonder that people came to give you a dress early in the morning. ”

"Mom, can I not go."

Lin Zi took Lin's mother's hand and said coquettishly.

"Hey, you want to escape again at this time? The beauty you think of, you have promised others, you regret it at this time, do you think it is the face of his Xu family, but also the face of your father and your mother. ”

"But Mom, this is naked deception, he didn't tell me it was a female companion at the beginning, if I had known that it was a female companion, I would definitely not go."

Lin Zi pursed his lips and said aggrievedly. Take a hundred plating, and read the latest chapter of "The Centripetal Direction of the Star: The Way Home, Claw Bookstore" for the first time.
