Chapter 157: Sparrow
It was obviously a sentence that caught her off guard, but Yu Silan immediately understood, she was going.
Liang Lei is going to Lin Wei's engagement banquet.
This is definitely not her whim, but the result of Liang Lei's thinking all night, where she will see Lin Wei holding another woman, smiling at that woman, and thoughtfully brushing her falling hair.
And Liang Lei stood there quietly witnessing all this, maybe her heart was strong, and she could walk forward with a smile and toast, and say, "I wish you a hundred years of happiness." β
made the apprehensive Lin family feel at ease, and she died of heart.
Or, Liang Lei can choose to leave the city, leave Lin Wei, don't think about his engagement banquet, don't pay attention to how bright and moving the bride is, don't listen to their touching vows, and don't look at the sincere wishes of the guests.
Just go away and live a life without Lin Wei.
But she will regret it for the rest of her life.
"Xiaolei, have you really decided?" Yu Silan pulled Liang Lei into the room, she looked bad, as if she would fall when the wind blew.
Liang Lei smiled suddenly, not with a big grin, but with a small arc raised at the corner of her mouth, a very quiet one: "I'm going to see him." β
This tone was doting, and the tail tone was slightly raised, which scared Yu Silan into a daze: "Xiaolei, what's wrong with you?" Don't scare me! β
Liang Lei looked at Yu Silan suspiciously: "I'm fine, what's wrong?" I can't be gentle. β
She pretended to be angry and patted Yu Silan: "I just figured it out, love has to be fought for by yourself." β
These words suddenly heard very middle-class, but with Liang Lei's current situation, it is inevitable that people will be sad,
Yu Silan hugged her: "Then let's go, don't be afraid of him." β
Liang Lei nodded vigorously.

Jiayuan Restaurant.
The whole venue is dominated by warm colors, flying petals, flying at will, chasing colorful brilliance, a gust of wind blowing, faintly bursting wind chimes, making a "ding dong-" sound.
There were no photos of the couple at the door like someone else's engagement banquet, but only a few words were simply written: Congratulations to Lin Wei and Li Xin on tying the knot!
A guest who knew a little bit of the inside story walked by, and when he heard a few people next to him discussing this, he couldn't help but speak out and wanted to tell the secret he knew.
"Hey, do you know why there aren't any pictures?" This guest asked me quickly, and asked me quickly.
As a result, there was also a bald head in the group of guests: "I don't know, the young master of the Lin family was unwilling to take pictures, so he made his fiancΓ©e wait for an afternoon that day." β
Everyone hurriedly asked him, "Did the young master of the Lin family come last?" β
The bald head shook his head and sighed: "Didn't come." β
The words were taken away by the bald head, and the guest was dissatisfied in his heart, so he added some more material: "Then do you know why the young master of the Lin family is with Li Xin?" β
A few people listening to the play really didn't know, and the guest smiled: "I tell you, he was forced!" β
He looked around, there was no Lin family, but he still lowered his voice, which was even more mysterious: "Forced by his father, Lin Zhengguo, you all know it, what a ruthless person!" β
Everyone sighed for a while, this banquet has not started yet, and it didn't take long for the Lin family's father and son to get along, and rumors of Lin Wei's forced marriage have spread all over the banquet hall.
Because the theme of the venue is sweet love, Zhou Ya arranged for cats and dogs to be placed in the venue for people to watch, and tied love balloons to each pillar, and the names of the guests were written on the seats.
Qi Xiuyuan's seat was left in the first row, and behind the seat was the three words Qi Xiuyuan written in Han gold script, next to Zhu Yu, and then the Lin family.
There is no Yu Silan.
This made Qi Xiuyuan feel in a bad mood after he came here, his expression was cold, and Lin Zhengguo's behavior was disgraceful, he was disgusted in his heart, and he had no polite thoughts, as long as someone came to talk along the way, he refused on the grounds that he was uncomfortable.
At this moment, Li Xin is sitting in the dressing room, and the makeup artist is painting eyeliner for her, Li Xin has a fair complexion and good facial features, which is not a prominent characteristic, but when you look at her seriously, after a long time, you will find that she is very charming.
It's a pity that our other protagonist today doesn't look at her at all, and he doesn't know who did the good deeds, so he cleverly combined Lin Wei and Li Xin's dressing room together, and said that he cultivated feelings.
Lin Wei knew that this was Lin Zhengguo's handiwork, but he still couldn't help but want to beat that errand.
The makeup artist has followed Li Xin for many years, and when she saw her eldest lady sitting in the dressing room like this, and her fiancΓ© didn't say a word to say hello, she couldn't help but feel aggrieved for Li Xin.
"Sister Xin, do you remember Young Master Zhou who always chased after you before?" The makeup artist asked Li Xin in front of Lin Wen while coiling his hair.
Li Xin frowned when he heard this: "Why did you suddenly talk about this, how many years ago." β
The makeup artist gave Li Xin a look, looked at Lin Wei, who had been silent, and continued: "You should be held in the palm of your hand, some people don't hold it, and there are many people waiting." β
Lin Wei's expression gradually became impatient, and he asked the other makeup artist behind him who was processing his hair, it was a timid little girl, "Okay?" β
The little girl hurriedly sped up: "Quick... It's almost there. β
Li Xin knew that Lin Wei was forced, but she also secretly went to see Liang Lei, although she was good-looking, her status was not worthy of Lin Lei, she didn't believe that Lin Wei would go on a hunger strike for Liang Lei.
That kind of rumor is an ugly thing, the Lin family has a big business, how can Lin Zhengguo's son be an infatuated species?
She doesn't want to get Lin Wei's heart, which is simply a luxury in various wealthy families, the most difficult thing to get.
She only wants herself and Lin Wei to be like Lin Zhengguo and Zhou Ya, at the beginning, it was also a family marriage, and all interests came first, but after a long time, the two of them advanced and retreated together, even if the other party made mistakes, at that time, they had changed from a false husband and wife to the relatives who got along for the longest time.
To put it bluntly, she wants to be with Lin Wei and respect each other, she has no feelings and doesn't care, as long as they are husband and wife.
When she learned that Lin Zhengguo threatened Lin Wei with Liang Lei, she would even think that it didn't matter if Liang Lei was alive, it was a big deal to get married in the future, and she could treat it as not knowing the existence of the other party.
She plucked up the courage to look at Lin Wei, revealing the perfect shyness that belonged to her fiancΓ©e, and she didn't know what to say for a while, so she could only shout: "Brother Lin." β
seems to be like this but is unwilling, Li Xin really didn't hear Lin Wei's response.
It's as if this huge dressing room is actually only Lin Wei himself, and Liang Lei, who doesn't know where he is.
Li Xin's jealous heart was hot, she couldn't stop thinking, and she thought madly, why in his eyes Lin Wei, Li Xin was not as good as a Liang Lei.
Li Xin remembered what Lin Zhengguo said the afternoon before yesterday, when Lin Wei ran out, Lin Zhengguo was furious, there was a lot of wind and rain outside, and the people he sent out came back and forth with just a few words: "I didn't find it." β
Later, Lin Zhengguo personally called Lin Wei, in the eyes of outsiders, this is the father finally bowing his head to his son, but Li Xin, who has been present, knows that Lin Wei is coming back.
After a phone call, Lin Zhengguo's face softened slightly, and finally looked at Li Xin, who had been quiet.
He didn't feel guilty at all: "I took Liang Lei to blackmail Lin Wei, and he was willing to get engaged." β
Li Xin thought that Lin Zhengguo was going to give herself a dismount, and she said very obediently: "I know, Uncle Lin, I will take good care of Brother Lin." β
But Lin Zhengguo was not satisfied, he frowned, and his words meant something: "It's just an engagement, so I worked hard, and I almost broke up with father and son." β
He leaned back, his sideburns had gray hair, and Li Xin found that no matter how powerful a person was, he was now old.
Lin Zhengguo relaxed: "Li Xin, tell me, what if Lin Wei refuses to get married?" β
Li Xin smiled and didn't dare to say more: "Uncle naturally has a way." β
Lin Zhengguo glanced at her, and this glance made Li Xin tremble: "Li Xin, let me ask you another question, do you think Liang Lei can stay?" β
Lin Zhengguo promised Lin Wei to keep Liang Lei, Li Xin had already heard about it, but now Lin Zhengguo asked her, Li Xin had palpitations for no reason, she said according to her own thoughts: "I think... I can stay. β
This was obviously not what Lin Zhengguo wanted to hear, he snorted coldly and glanced at Li Xin: "Stay?" In the future, it was Mrs. Lin on the bright side, and she was afraid that she would become a junior behind her back. β
Li Xin clenched his sleeves.
Lin Zhengguo continued unhurriedly: "I still want this son, this matter can't be done by me, it's about your happiness and the interests of the two families, Xiaoxin, think about it." β
Li Xin could hear this sentence as long as she closed her eyes, and it surrounded her like a spell.
Lin Zhengguo refused to do it himself, so he told Lin Wei that he would protect Liang Lei, and hinted that Li Xin would do it.
Li Xin frowned, if she did, the most serious consequence would be discord between the husband and wife for the rest of her life, in short, divorce is impossible.
But... She can fight with Xiao San and Xiao Si, but she can't match a dead person.
Perhaps, she can bet on Liang Lei's status in Lin Wei's heart.
Li Xin's eyelashes trembled slightly, and when he opened his eyes, Lin Wei didn't know when he had left the dressing room, and he was afraid that he was already impatient.
The makeup artist also left, leaving her alone in the room.
Li Xin looked at herself in a white gauze skirt in the mirror, pursed her lips and smiled, as if Lin Wei was sitting opposite, and finally mustered up the courage to say what was in her heart, her lips closed lightly:
"Brother Lin, I saw you for the first time when I was eight years old, you definitely don't remember, after all, you only have in your heart..."
She didn't seem to be willing to mention Liang Lei's name here, her expression was annoyed, and she closed her lips suddenly.
After a while, she smiled shyly: "On my grandfather's birthday that day, you followed your uncle to my house to celebrate his birthday, you stood in a group of short and fat boys, the sun was behind you, and butterflies flew on your shoulders, it was so dazzling." β
Li Xin looked yearning: "When I was forced by my family to learn how to be a lady, you can do what you want to do as you like, you are like a free bird, but I am a sparrow in the cage." β
