Once Li Ze returns to China, my true identity can no longer be hidden.

I had a plan for this, and I didn't think about deceiving Li Ze all the time.

At first, I approached him under a false identity because I was afraid that he would be suspicious if he found out who I was.

The next day, I went to the airport to pick up Li Ze in person, and when I saw him dragging his suitcase out, I waved at him.

"Li Ze!"

Li Ze noticed me when he heard the sound, a smile of joy curled up at the corner of his mouth, and his steps sped up a little.

Walking up to me, Li Ze, took off the sunglasses on his eye sockets, "Tina, long time no see." You've gotten prettier! ”

I pursed my lips and smiled shyly, "Just make fun of me when we met!" Let's get in the car, I've already booked the restaurant. ”

I opened the trunk, and Li Ze put the suitcase on it, and then sat in the co-pilot.

Along the way, Li Zedu opened the car window to look at the street scene outside the window, and couldn't help but sigh: "The last time I came to the capital was a few years ago, but I didn't expect the capital to change so much in just a few years." ”

Li Ze has lived abroad for a long time, and he will only return to China during the Chinese New Year to see, and in recent years, because of the problems of the Mi Guo Auction House, he has not been able to go home for the New Year as promised for several years.

In Li Xue's words, Li Ze is different from Li Xing, he is not so scheming, and his mind is focused on jewelry research.

brought him to a well-known traditional Chinese restaurant that has been opened in the past two years, and the decoration inside is very ancient.

Li Ze, who has lived abroad for a long time, is also quite interested in these traditional things in China, and his eyes have been looking at the store.

I chuckled and said, "You're tired of eating all kinds of steak and foie gras in foreign countries, so I'll take you to try these traditional dishes today." ”

The restaurant's reputation in just two years is due to the fact that it is very traditional, not only in terms of décor and furnishings, but also in terms of the dishes, which are made according to the standards of the previous imperial cuisine.

This meal can be said to have been arranged in Li Ze's heart, which made him extremely happy.

"Tina, you've really put your heart into entertaining me."

I smiled lightly and took the initiative to confess while he was in a good mood.

"Li Ze, in fact, I have something to hide from you." I lowered my head like a child who had done something wrong.

My abnormality left Li Ze at a loss, "What? ”

I took a deep breath and said word by word: "Actually, my surname is Ruan, and my name is Ruan Shi." ”

"Ruan Shi? Why is this name a little familiar......" Li Ze frowned, and suddenly remembered something: "You are the daughter that my father said Aunt Li Xue had been lost for many years?!" ”

I hung my head and explained to myself in a feeble tone, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to deceive you. Actually, I didn't know that you were my eldest brother at first, but then I remembered that I had seen you in the photos of my uncle's house. But when I went abroad, I just wanted to find a place where no one knew me and start over, so I kept using the name Tina to cover it up, and I never confessed to you......"

I raised my head and calmly met his eyes, "But no matter what, I shouldn't hide it, if you get angry, scold me and beat me." ”

Maybe it was my sincerity that moved him, or maybe it was Li Ze's gentle personality, he didn't blame me, but sighed regretfully.

He looked at me sympathetically, "I can understand your heart, my aunt just passed away during that time, and you were divorced again, so it's normal not to want to mention that past." If I were you, I might choose to start over incognito. ”

Sure enough, when it comes to me as Ruan Shi, he knows a lot about me, and even I know that I was divorced, and it must have been Li Xing who told him.

I asked Li Ze tentatively, "Do you really blame me?" ”

Li Ze disagreed, "I haven't been cheated out of any money by you." As for feelings, you are originally my sister, and it stands to reason that I should care more about you. ”

Li Ze's generosity is beyond my expectations, it seems that he and Li Xing are really not the same kind of people.

Li Ze said regretfully: "It stands to reason that when my aunt died, I should have come back to attend the funeral." It's just that my dad told me the news a few days late, and the auction house was doing a brisk business at the time, and I couldn't leave. That's when I missed my aunt's funeral. My aunt has always treated me very well, but I can't live with my aunt......"

"Don't say that." I couldn't help but soften my heart and comfort him, "If my mother is alive, she must also hope that you will be busy with your career." Even though she passed away, she wouldn't want to be haunted by a funeral. ”

Li Ze nodded, didn't say anything more, raised his glass and touched it with me, "Everything is fate, even if you hide your identity, we still become friends." It's my dad's birthday party next week, so you're going to go too, right? ”

"Of course." I smiled, but my eyes dimmed, "Uncle's big day, I must prepare a generous gift." ”

Li Ze chuckled and asked, "Could it be that you have customized some jewelry for my father in private?" Speaking of which, some of the jewelry in your collection is truly amazing. ”

"Keep it mysterious for now, and you'll find out at the birthday banquet next week." There was a smile on the corner of my mouth, but my eyes were still cold, and I was even more pretending to be suppressed hatred in my heart.

After leaving the restaurant, I handed the hotel room card to Li Ze, and did not forget to intimately instruct: "You just came back from the United States, let's reverse the jet lag first." Fame If you need it, you can let my driver send you. ”

"Poetry." He suddenly called out my name, and I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

I saw him pull a smile at me, "I'm waiting for you in Haicheng." ”

……

After sending Li Ze away, I went straight back to the company.

Thinking of Li Xing's birthday banquet, I casually asked Yuan Yue: "Li Xing's birthday banquet is coming, how are the things I asked you to prepare?" ”

Yuan Yue didn't answer me, but walked out, and came back with a document in his hand.

She handed me the papers, "Everything you want is here." ”

I opened it and took a brief look, a smug smile on my lips.

If Li Xue is still alive, maybe I will prepare some congratulatory gifts for Li Xing's birthday banquet and follow Li Xue to celebrate his birthday.

But now that Li Xue is dead, she has nothing to do with Li Xing, Li Xue died this year, but Li Xing wants to hold a birthday banquet this year, and I will definitely not let his birthday banquet go on in peace.

Yuan Yue looked at me and took the initiative to say, "You can take another look, if you still need anything, I will do my best to help you solve it." ”

"No need, these are enough for Li Xing to go around without eating!"

I put away the document, snorted coldly, and muttered to myself: "Li Xing, your birthday banquet, I will definitely give you a gift that will last a lifetime!" ”
