Chapter 439: Uneasy

Although Leng Qingxi had a lot of reluctance in her heart, although she knew that this so-called charity banquet would not be a pleasant experience, she still decided to accompany Mu Xuncheng to attend.

The banquet was held at the largest hotel in the city, the Haitian Hotel.

Leng Qingxi really dressed up carefully, this kind of occasion, of course, can't embarrass Mu Xuncheng.

When Mu Xuncheng saw Leng Qingxi dressed up, he couldn't help but sigh: "My wife is really beautiful." ”

Leng Qingxi did not hesitate to accept Mu Xuncheng's praise.

"Of course."

Mu Xuncheng is still wearing a black suit, but for a clothes rack like Mu Xuncheng, he looks good no matter what he wears, let alone this kind of custom suit with excellent tailoring and workmanship.

Therefore, as soon as the two of them appeared at the banquet scene, they attracted the attention of countless people.

Many people came over and greeted Mu Xuncheng one after another.

Leng Qingxi nodded and smiled on the side.

After the host finished the opening speech, the first item of the banquet officially began.

It's nothing more than some collectibles, a show by several big companies and celebrities, and Leng Qingxi doesn't have the heart to pay attention to it at all.

Her eyes had been searching the crowd, and sure enough, she quickly found Ling Jiacheng sitting on the other side.

Next to Ling Jiacheng, there was still a girl named Ling Xue.

Leng Qingxi's gaze turned over, but he found that Ling Xue was looking at Mu Xuncheng and Leng Qingxi's side with a scorching gaze.

Leng Qingxi's heart chuckled, I don't know why, Ling Xue's gaze made Mu Xuncheng have a bad premonition, this kind of gaze, there was a sense of déjà vu.

Is it because they are all members of the Ling family? Leng Qingxi couldn't help but ask herself in her heart.

Ling Xue's expression reminded Leng Qingxi of a person, a person they didn't want to think of now, Ling Fei'er.

Ling Xue felt Leng Qingxi's gaze cast over, her eyes flashed with panic, and then she quickly lowered her head, but soon, she raised her head and looked at Leng Qingxi defiantly.

Leng Qingxi didn't expect her to look back at herself like this, and she was a little stunned for a while.

The host on the stage still didn't know what to say, but Leng Qingxi turned a deaf ear.

She looked at Ling Xue, and Ling Xue also looked at her, and Leng Qingxi saw a light of hatred in Ling Xue's eyes.

Leng Qingxi couldn't help but feel cold all over her body, but Ling Xue looked at her and showed a vicious smile.

Mu Xuncheng had been staring at the podium, but he turned his head sideways, looked at Leng Qingxi, and asked in some surprise, "What's wrong?" ”

Following Leng Qingxi's gaze, he saw the Ling family, but when he looked over, Ling Xue had already withdrawn her gaze and was staring seriously ahead, as if the person who was looking at Leng Qingxi just now was her at all.

When Mu Xuncheng saw Ling Jiacheng, he thought that Leng Qingxi was looking at him, he stretched out his hand and held Leng Qingxi's hand, and found that Leng Qingxi's hand was unusually cold.

He squeezed Leng Qingxi's hand vigorously and said, "It's okay." ”

Leng Qingxi came back to her senses at this time, and looked at Mu Xuncheng beside her, she knew that he thought that he would look at Ling Jiacheng again.

Leng Qingxi didn't explain either, because the feeling just now was too subtle.

If he talked to Mu Xuncheng, he would definitely feel that he was too sensitive.

She smiled reluctantly at Mu Xuncheng.

"I know."

After speaking, she turned her gaze to the podium, pretending to be serious, and looked at the podium.

In fact, her mind was completely outside of this banquet.

Ling Xue is indeed a very strange woman, she appears very strangely, and every time she meets her Leng Qingxi, she feels uncomfortable.

At first, Leng Qingxi thought that this discomfort was because he was a member of the Ling family. However, now Leng Qingxi can be sure that the reason why she feels strange is far more than that.

But why?

Ling Xue was a person who gave her a very strong sense of familiarity. But unfortunately, this familiarity does not make people feel intimate, but makes Leng Qingxi feel very uneasy.

Every time he saw her, Leng Qingxi felt that this woman exuded a strong resentment and a cold smell.

It's like a long-standing enemy.

Of course, Leng Qingxi can be sure that except for the grievances and accidents with the Ling family, he has absolutely no intersection with her.

Leng Qingxi also recalled when he was in the United States, but he really didn't recall any details about this girl.

Leng Qingxi felt a lot of headaches, although she knew that in fact, the person she was really worried about should be Ling Jiacheng.

But the gaze that Ling Xue looked at Mu Xuncheng just now and the eyes that made Leng Qingxi feel creepy.

Leng Qingxi, who was already absent-minded, became even more absent-minded in the following activities

It wasn't until there was a real commotion on and off the stage that Leng Qingxi returned his attention to the stage.

Leng Qingxi found out that the charity auction didn't know when it had ended.

Now it's a strange foreign man standing on the stage.

Men are tall and fierce that are unique to European and American men.

Although he was wearing a suit, his momentum could not be concealed no matter what.

This man's gaze was very sharp, and he occasionally swept over Leng Qingxi's side, which made Leng Qingxi feel uncomfortable.

Leng Qingxi tilted his head to Mu Xuncheng and asked, "Who is this man?" ”

"He's Reddy's son, Giessen." Mu Xuncheng stared at the podium and said to Leng Qingxi.

Leng Qingxi nodded, for this Jisen Leng Qingxi is like thunder.

Because in the past few days, both TV stations and newspapers have been hyped up reporting the news of this son's visit to China, which makes it difficult for Leng Qingxi to ignore it.

What's more, Mu Xuncheng also mentioned it to her once.

Leng Qingxi asked again, "What did he come up for?" ”

"I only know now that he did it this time." Mu Xuncheng said with some unhappiness.

Because the previous organizer has always written confidential, but the invited organization is very authoritative, so Mu Xuncheng has no way to refuse.

Only now did he know that this charity auction was hosted by Reddy's.

Leng Qingxi didn't feel anything, she looked at the people on the stage with interest, and said, "This person doesn't look like a businessman. ”

"What does that look like?" Mu Xuncheng turned his head to look at Leng Qingxi and asked.

"I look like a bodyguard." Leng Qingxi's words were amazing.

Mu Xuncheng was amused by her all of a sudden.

"You're a business tycoon."

"What a business tycoon, I just know one, and he sits next to me." Leng Qingxi saw Mu Xuncheng's unhappiness and said deliberately.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Mu Xuncheng's face suddenly improved a lot.

He pointed to the table and said, "Listen to what he has to say." ”

What Gieson said was nothing more than some kind words on the scene, and in addition to expressing his gratitude to everyone for coming, he also mentioned the purpose of holding this banquet.

"Reddy's has always been committed to benefiting humanity, both in China and internationally, so the first thing we did when we came to China was not to develop our business, but to do something tangible for the local community."

Giessen's words naturally won a round of applause.

Leng Qingxi quietly glanced at Mu Xuncheng and found that he had a disdainful expression on his face.

Giessen said some more painless polite words before announcing the start of the dinner.

Mu Xuncheng's eyes followed Jisen until he stepped down.

Leng Qingxi asked with some curiosity on the side, "What's wrong?" Why do you keep staring at him. ”

"I found ......," Mu Xuncheng turned his head to look at Leng Qingxi with a solemn gaze.

Leng Qingxi was taken aback by his appearance, and hurriedly asked nervously, "What did you find?" ”

"I found out that he really looked like a bodyguard." After Mu Xuncheng finished speaking, he laughed.

Leng Qingxi was stunned for a moment, and then found that Mu Xuncheng was originally teasing her, she hammered Mu Xuncheng's chest a little angrily and said: "Why are you so annoying, I really thought you had discovered something terrible, and I was worried about it." ”

Mu Xuncheng smiled even brighter.

"Who made you so stupid?" The two of them got up and prepared to go to the banquet hall while talking and laughing.

As soon as he stood up, Leng Qingxi was knocked down on the chair by someone.

Leng Qingxi let out a whisper and raised his head, only to find that it was Ling Xue standing beside him with a malicious smile.

"Oh, Mrs. Mu is really embarrassed, I didn't pay attention just now, are you okay?" Ling Xue said sorry, but her expression didn't mean sorry at all.

Even a little proud.

Leng Qingxi didn't speak, but Mu Xuncheng helped Leng Qingxi up from his seat.

At this time, Ling Jiacheng also came over and stood next to Ling Xue.

Leng Qingxi raised his head and was about to speak, but found that Ling Xue's gaze at Mu Xuncheng had become very terrifying like just now.

Leng Qingxi tugged Mu Xuncheng's hand hard.

Mu Xuncheng glanced down at Leng Qingxi.

Ling Jiacheng also discovered Ling Xue's gaffe, he coughed lightly and said, "What's wrong?" "The Ling family and the Mu family have always been the focus of everyone's attention, at this moment, the four of them stood here, the atmosphere was a little cold, and soon the people around them noticed the strangeness here, and they stopped one after another, gathered around, and whispered.

Mu Xuncheng first noticed that something was wrong around him, he put away the gloom on his face, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, this young lady accidentally bumped into my wife just now." ”

As he spoke, he wrapped a hand around Leng Qingxi's shoulder.

Leng Qingxi was stunned and didn't speak.

Ling Xue's gaze was firmly fixed on the hand that Mu Xuncheng had placed on Leng Qingxi's body.

Ling Jiacheng touched her lightly, and she came back to her senses and said, "Oh, yes, I'm really sorry." ”

Ling Jiacheng said: "Then if it's okay, we'll go first." ”

Mu Xuncheng didn't speak, and made a gesture of please.

Ling Jiacheng grabbed Ling Xue's hand and walked forward.

Mu Xuncheng looked at their backs, and his face gradually sank again.
