036: Deliberately
In the Xu family, Xu Zhi was not afraid of anyone, but Xu Yi, especially when he was serious and ready to train people, she felt panicked, so even if she was unhappy now, she still looked at Xu Li and reluctantly shouted 'sister'.
The corners of Xu Li's lips hooked the arc of a smile but not a smile, and she rolled her eyes, and she was quite disdainful of her 'sister'.
"What do you mean? What kind of attitude is this? Xu Zhi saw her arrogant and contemptuous attitude, which instantly ignited the anger in her heart, and she directly raised her voice to question.
"What attitude do you think I should have?" Xu Li smiled faintly and asked rhetorically.
"Twigs." Xu Yi frowned and scolded unhappily, "You better pay attention to your attitude first, don't forget what day it is, you want the guests to see our Xu family's jokes?" ”
Xu Zhi was dumbfounded and immediately wilted.
Today, there will be many seniors and top performers in the entertainment industry, and there will be a lot of wealthy families in the business world, especially today, there will be many media Vs.
If she and Xu Li don't get along, or if something awkward is filmed, not to mention how much impact it has on her family, just talking about her eight or ninety million fans is enough for her to drink a pot.
Cyberbullying can't afford to hurt.
But he didn't want to be defeated, so he glared at Xu Li angrily, turned around and left.
Xu Li didn't bother to entangle with her so much, and she was speechless and helpless about this cousin.
She grew up with Xu Zhi, and the two were only four years apart, but because of her temperament since she was a child, she couldn't play with her peers, and others would think she was too cold and arrogant, with the frame of the eldest lady, and it was difficult to get close to no one in her eyes.
It just so happens that this is what Xu Zhi dislikes the most about her.
In the past, Xu Zhi's family lived in the west building of the Xu family's old house, and it was only after the death of Xu Li's parents that the family of three moved into the main building.
Xu Zhi was also pampered and grew up, even Xu Li's parents loved her very much, so she was more delicate and willful since she was a child, and her sense of comparison, possessiveness and jealousy were particularly strong, and she liked to compare with Xu Li in everything.
For example, the room where Xu Li lived before was something she didn't have.
Naturally, the west building can't be compared with the main building, so Xu Zhi's bedroom was originally much smaller than Xu Li's room, not to mention, Xu Li's parents deliberately opened up all the rooms on the third floor for her.
Because of this, she is not less sour.
So after their family moved into the main building, Xu Zhi showed off in front of her many times, but Xu Li didn't pay attention to her at all, and she couldn't sing this one-man show, and she was dissatisfied and resentful of Xu Li in her heart.
"Ah Li, don't take it to heart, the branches are the child's heart." Xu Yi was silent for a moment and spoke slowly.
"I didn't take it to heart." Xu Li smiled lightly, "It's almost time, the guests should be coming soon, brother, you better accompany your uncle and aunt to welcome the guests first, my identity is relatively special, and I will go out later." ”
"Okay."
Xu Yi nodded, looked at Shang Yan again, bowed his head slightly, and left.
Xu Li and Shang Yan waited in the private room for a while, and after half an hour, Xu Li saw that the time was almost up, so she got up and smoothed the folds of her skirt and looked at the Qingjun man beside her, "I'll go out first." ”
"Hmm."
"Mom and Dad, they said there was still half an hour to arrive, so you should show up with them!" Xu Li's face was smiling, and his face was harmless and bright.
The sweet and delicate voice was more like warm wine and beer, flowing into his heart like ice and dust.
Shang Yan pursed his lips, in the eyes of outsiders, he has nothing to do with the Xu family, and coming to this birthday banquet can be regarded as giving Xu Zheng a face, after all, some time ago, the Shang family and Xu's newly established catering company were a little implicated in cooperation.
His appearance on his own is already very topical, not to mention his parents who have just returned to China.
After thinking for a while, Shang Yan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and said with an uncertain look.
When Xu Li came out, most of the guests outside had already arrived, and there were many familiar faces among them, and she helped Xu Zhengsong and his wife entertain the guests with red wine.
When Shang Zhihuai and his wife came, they didn't make too many waves in the banquet hall, for most people, the two of them lived abroad all the year round, and they didn't have close contacts with merchants for more than ten years, so no one recognized them.
After greeting Xu Zhengsong and his wife and identifying themselves, the two sides warmly greeted each other for about seven or eight minutes before being taken by Xu Li to sit down in the banquet hall.
When he went back to his house and sat down at the main table, the empty seat was suddenly snatched away by a shadow.
"I want to sit here, you sit over there." Xu Zhi raised her pretty and arrogant little face and instructed her.
Xu Li, "......"
She looked at her calmly, as if she was looking at a clown jumping off the beam, indifferent, but also generous enough, smiled at her lightly, and said softly, "Zhizhi, the winter is relatively dry, haven't you taken good care of your skin during this time?" It's all stuck. ”
After speaking, she gracefully walked to the opposite position and sat down, and chatted with Xu Yi beside her without a word.
Xu Zhi's face turned a little pale when she heard Xu Li's words, she has always cared about her appearance, and this delicacy is also learned from Xu Li.
Regardless of Ge Qin's tugging beside him, he took out a small mirror from his bag, and took a closer look, the face with skin like clotted fat could be broken by blowing, and the base makeup on it was very close to the skin, and there was no card powder that Xu Li said.
Her face changed suddenly, and she knew that she had been tricked.
She threw the mirror into her bag and glared at Xu Li angrily, but Xu Li didn't mean to look at her and pay attention to her, so she could only hold the corner of her clothes hard and sulk.
After the luncheon, Xu Zhengsong specially invited a well-known domestic opera team, which also responded to the old lady's preference.
As soon as the gong of the opera sounded, the audience was silent and watched the play attentively.
At various banquets and birthday banquets in high society, such opera performances are uncommon, so it looks very interesting.
After the three operas on the stage were sung, there was thunderous applause from the audience, and everyone was very surprised and surprised by the arrangement of the Xu family, and Mrs. Xu was also very satisfied.
Soon, it was time to cut the cake, and as soon as the eight-story cake was withdrawn, there was a burst of exclamations in the venue, and many people gathered around, and as soon as the lights went out, the rhythm of the happy birthday song sounded, and everyone sang along.
When the cake was cut, the environment was a little chaotic, Xu Li stood at the very edge, and when the atmosphere was particularly hot, Xu Zhi spilled red wine on her coat.
A dark red liquor bloomed across her beige coat, and the liquid slid all the way down to her white boots.
"Oh, I'm sorry, sister, I was so excited just now that I forgot that I still had a glass of wine in my hand, you won't be angry, right?" Xu Zhi raised his hand to cover his lips, looking very exaggerated surprise, but his eyes were full of joy and schadenfreude.
