Chapter 52, The Birthday Banquet
"Dean Xuan, your guqin is really amazing."
"It's ugly." In the face of Lin Xi's praise, Xuan Ji only nodded modestly.
"Hi Beauty, hello, I'm John." The man beside Lin Xi introduced himself. Xuan Ruoxi saw that he looked a little mixed-race, tall and handsome, with white skin and shape.
"Hello, I'm Xuan Zhenxi."
"Xuan Ruo pity! The name is so beautiful, I am impressed by the demeanor of the beautiful woman, can I invite you to dance? "John is courteous and gentlemanly. Lin Xi took a sip of wine slowly, and the sneer that flashed in his eyes was hidden in the wine glass.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not very good at dancing."
"John, Dean Xuan is engaged in charity, you are a rich man, should you be generous?"
"What Miss Lin said is that I am willing to give love, after all, children are the cutest angels."
"Then I'll thank you in advance for Dean Xuan." Someone came over to talk to Lin Xi, and Lin Xi left under the pretext of excuse. Before leaving, he gave John a look, how smart John was, he was naturally willing to accept it. For him, women are all open-minded when they see money, and beauties like Xuan Jixi are rare.
He was interested.
"Since Miss Xuan doesn't want to dance, it's okay to have a drink with me, right?" John picked up a glass of champagne and frowned in embarrassment.
"I'm sorry Mr. John, but I'm not very good at drinking." John sighed in discouragement, looking helpless.
"Well, since Miss Xuan is so polite, then I can't force it. But I still appreciate Miss Xuan very much, otherwise, would we have dinner together another day? John's eyes kept looking at Xuan Zhenxi, and he felt that the more the beautiful woman in front of him looked, the more pleasing it became. The temperament of the gestures is far better than Lin Xi. There is still a bit of retro elegance in the quiet, it has been in the mainland for several years, and I have seen countless beauties, but it is the first time I have met Xuan Zhen like this. It rejects people thousands of miles away, but people can't help but get close to it. Interesting!
Huo Jiyun was tripped up by several business tycoons, and finally got out, wanting to find Xuan Zhen and leave.
"Ji Yun." Lin Xi with a smile on his face appeared in front of him, and Huo Jiyun stopped and looked at her.
"Lin Xi, you invited a lot of people to tonight's banquet." Huo Jiyun felt that there was no need to invite so many people to a birthday party.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is rich and extravagant.
Lin Xi knew that Huo Jiyun often didn't like this kind of lively scene.
"Yes, it's all my dad, what do you mean I'm just starting out, and I want to help me win over customers. I said it for a long time before he reluctantly agreed. But a lot of people were invited. I know you don't like it, so I'm surprised and happy to have you here. Lin Xi said and slowly approached Huo Jiyun. There are countless pairs of eyes watching them, and tonight there is only success and no failure. In order to let Huo Jiyun see Xuan Ji clearly, she did not hesitate to use the face of her family, if Xuan Ruoxi had an accident at her birthday banquet, then she could take the opportunity to block her existence.
"Well, it's not early, I still have something to do, I have to go first."
"Isn't it? Are you leaving? The banquet was only halfway through. I didn't even cut the cake. Lin Xi pouted and said unhappily.
Huo Jiyun frowned slightly, but decided to leave.
"I'm sorry, I still have something to do."
"Ji Yun, do you remember when we went to college together - at that time, you and I were in the next class, and every time we went to the library, we would meet unexpectedly. At that time, I would ask you to answer any questions I couldn't have, and you would be happy to help me. "The memories are all good. Lin Xi was immersed in her own memories, and her beautiful eyes were full of affection. Huo Jiyun lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"That's it, it's all gone. Now that we're all adults, Ji Yun, you know, I've always liked you. I'm not asking you to answer me tonight, I just want you to stay a little longer. Sing a birthday song for me, okay? Lin Xi looked at Huo Jiyun expectantly.
In a corner, Ji Xiangxiang and Song Yi were whispering, they were holding different drinks in their hands, Ji Xiangxiang was juice, and Song Yi was champagne.
A maid with a drink came over and said, "Wait a minute." Ji Xiangxiang stopped her.
"I haven't drunk this juice before, and I want to change it." The maid pointed the tray to her, and Ji Xiangxiang naturally put the juice in her hand on the tray and exchanged it with a glass of juice of other colors. And also deliberately glanced around, and his eyes paused somewhere.
"There seems to be a guest beckoning over there, so come over." Not far away, John was waving to the servant, so the servant came to John and Xuan Qixi with the juice that Ji Xiangxiang had just changed.
"If you don't drink, drink juice." John picked up a glass of juice and handed it to Xuan. Feeling bad and then refusing, Xuan Ji hesitated to take the juice.
"Cheers!" John held up the champagne in his hand and winked at Xuan. Xuan Zhen had to drink a few sips with him, and in the corner, he could see Ji Xiangxiang who had drunk the juice, and a smile flashed on the corner of his mouth. Pretending to be a little drunk from drinking, he quietly left with his forehead on his hands.
"Ji Yun, in order to express your gratitude, I toast you!" Lin Xi recruited a servant. Huo Jiyun glanced at the champagne on the tray, and raised his thick eyebrows lightly. Still gentlemanly picked up the wine glass and raised it to Lin Xi, who immediately smiled.
"Cheers!" The glass made a crisp sound, and Lin Xi watched Huo Jiyun finish a glass of champagne.
Song Yi, who was secretly observing, saw that it was done, so he lifted his skirt and walked out.
Xuan Ji listened to the man's talk in front of him, felt a little dizzy, and subconsciously held his forehead.
"Miss Xuan, are you drunk?" John saw Xuan Zhen covering his forehead, and a trace of pride flashed in his eyes.
This woman just likes to pretend and looks noble, and when she hears his wealth theory, she begins to get dizzy.
Half in the bag? How could she be drunk without drinking?
"I'm a little uncomfortable. I'm sorry. Xuan Zhen wanted to say that he was missing, but as soon as he moved, he found that his feet were weak.
"Miss Xuan is okay, right?" John quickly held her, and in the face of the beauty's embrace, he always refused to come.
"I-" Xuan Ji Xi found that his head was getting more and more dizzy, and the strength on the soles of his feet was almost soft.
"Since it's uncomfortable, let's go first." John obviously understood that he was wrong, and he couldn't help but help Xuan Ji and leave the banquet place.
His car skills were parked on the side of the road, today's dinner was not what he was interested in, if Lin Xi hadn't invited him, he wouldn't have come.
Sen Sen was waiting for Huo Jiyun outside the villa, and just after sending a message to Xiao Ding, when he looked up, he found a tall man walking out of the villa with a woman in his arms.
Originally, he just looked at it casually, but when he accidentally saw Xuan Zhenxi's face, his eyes widened in surprise.
Isn't that Sister Ruoxi? Who is the man holding her? Dressed in flowers, it is not a serious bird at first glance. Look at Sister Ruoxi again, half leaning on the man, is she drunk?
But if she was drunk, why didn't Huo Shao help her out?
"Baby, it's in the car soon, you're waiting." John said excitedly, but Xuan Zhen regretted but didn't want to go with him.
"You—let me go." Reason told her that the other party had bad intentions and wanted to push him away, but found that she had no strength.
"Huh! Baby, you're so fragrant, your body is still soft, I like it so much, I can't wait. The more John spoke, the more excited he became, and the weakness of his struggle for Xuan Ji was like a cat's paw scratching his chest.
He couldn't wait to kiss Fang Ze, so he simply picked up Xuan Zhen and planned to throw her into the car to do things directly.
Open the car door and push Xuan Ji Xi on the seat. The monkey was so anxious that he didn't even close the car door tightly, and went directly to the hungry wolf and the tiger.
But before his mouth touched Xuan Zhenxi's face, a strong force behind him pulled him out of the car, and then before he could react, he was slapped on the cheek and fell heavily to the ground.
"Bastard thing." It turned out to be Sen Sen.
took out the phone and immediately dialed Huo Jiyun's number.
After drinking champagne, Huo Jiyun planned to leave, but was entangled by Lin Xi-
"Ji Yun, don't be in a hurry to leave. Promise me that the banquet is over and leaving. Lin Xi coquettishly hugged Huo Jiyun's arm, and finally let him drink the wine with "ingredients", how could he let it go easily.
"Lin Xi, let go." Huo Jiyun's face was cold and cold.
He felt a hot and restless cry in his body.
There was hidden anger in his dark eyes.
There was something wrong with that glass of wine just now.
He is pure-hearted, but not a fool.
"Ji Yun, your face is so ugly, are you not feeling well, I'll help you go to my room." Lin Xi naturally couldn't help the tall Huo Jiyun alone, and gave the servant standing aside a look, wanting to forcibly take him away.
But who is Huo Jiyun! How could it be so easy to be plotted, he shouted in a deep voice: "Get out." "Good-natured, he was clearly angry.
Dark eyes stared at Lin Xi, and Lin Xi was startled by his vicious eyes. But now is not the time to be afraid, many people are looking over, and she must get Huo Jiyun into the room before the full effect of the medicine has been exerted.
Huo Jiyun frowned and pushed away Lin Xi's entangled arm, the fingers that pulled out the phone were already trembling, he knew that he had to leave here immediately.
"Hello, the phone you dialed is on a call—"
"Damn Sensen!" But it was such a coincidence that Sen Sen was also calling him.
"The phone you dialed is on a call—"
"Oh, Huo Shao, answer the phone quickly." Sen Sen really wanted to rush in, but he couldn't let go of Xuan Zhen.
Ji Xiangxiang, who was hiding at the door and peeking, found that John was beaten to the ground by Sen Sen, so she secretly screamed badly.
I don't know if Lin Xi succeeded? So she hurriedly returned to the banquet again, looked around, and found that there was no trace of Lin Xi, and Huo Jiyun was gone.
I panicked in my heart, could it be that Lin Xi succeeded? She had heard Lin Xi say that she was going to deal with Huo Shao before, but she didn't understand what she was going to do.
Lin Xi just said that she should cooperate with her and take Xuan Ji away. Then she will drag Huo Shao. But when she saw Song Yi putting medicine in their respective cups just now, she felt that something was not right.
Why put drugs? Could it be that Lin Xi wants to attack Brother Huo? But she also likes Brother Huo, if she is snatched away by Lin Xi, then she will also lose Brother Huo! She is willing to deal with Xuanji, but if Brother Huo is plotted, she will not die of sadness.
"Stinky boy, how dare you hit me?" John got up from the ground, and Sen Sen looked back at him, his eyes full of disgust.
"Humph! Scum! "I hate this kind of vain boy the most.
"You're looking for death." John said through gritted teeth.
"Really? Looks like you haven't had enough of my fists. "Mori is a black section of judo. Usually he is very arrogant, but when it comes to fighting, he has never lost.
At tonight's birthday banquet, Lin Xi specially invited a few reporters in order to keep Huo Jiyun, in order to spread it as soon as she had a "accidental" relationship with Huo Jiyun.
When the raw rice is cooked and matured, it is difficult for Huo Jiyun to think about it and not be responsible.
