“Brother Xuanming.”
Tang Xinrou pulled Song Yaoyao towards the dessert counter and introduced her in a low voice.
“This is Leng Xuanming. He’s the eldest young master of the Leng Family. He’s one of the older brothers I’ve known since I was young. He went abroad to study after primary school and stayed abroad to work after graduation. He only came back recently.”
Song Yaoyao took a cupcake. It wasn’t clear whether she was listening or not.
“Xiao Rou, this is…”
Leng Xuanming walked over. He put on a bathrobe and wiped the water droplets on his hair with a towel.
“Song Yaoyao, my good friend.”
“Song…” Leng Xuanming raised his eyebrows and reacted instantly. The smile on his face became even wider. “Miss Song, right? I know you. I’ve seen your work. It’s very good.”
“Thank you.”
After returning to China, Leng Xuanming realized that there had been some changes in the circle, but not much.
For example, the position of the number one aristocratic family had not changed. The old aristocratic families were still standing strong and were not on the decline. The only thing that surprised Leng Xuanming was that Mr. Huo, who was said to have a pure heart and few desires, had a fiancée. He even pampered her, and everyone in the circle knew about it.
He secretly looked at the girl in front of him, holding a cupcake in her hand. She looked like a doll and was very delicate and beautiful. However, he had seen a lot of beautiful girls. He had grown up abroad, so after hearing about Song Yaoyao, he didn’t have a big reaction.
Instead, he felt that everyone respected Song Yaoyao simply because of Mr. Huo.
“Brother Xuanming!” Tang Xinrou frowned when she noticed Leng Xuanming sizing Song Yaoyao up.
“Ah… Sorry, sorry.” Leng Xuanming bowed like a gentleman. “Miss Song is really too beautiful, so I took a few extra glances. Please forgive me.”
Song Yaoyao narrowed her eyes and didn’t say a word.
Leng Xuanming was asking for trouble. He knew that he wasn’t welcomed by Song Yaoyao, so he tactfully said, “You girls have fun. I’ll go change first. See you later.”
“Go ahead.”
Tang Xinrou did not look pleased. As soon as he left, she pulled on Song Yaoyao and apologized, “Yaoyao, I’m sorry. I didn’t know he had become like this. Why don’t we go? This doesn’t look like much fun anyway.”
Song Yaoyao smiled with crescent-shaped eyes. She casually licked a mouthful of cream. “No, I think it’s quite fun.” The mellow and sweet taste filled her mouth. Song Yaoyao was in a good mood. “The cake is also very delicious.”
Tang Xinrou: “… you’re just here for the cake! If you want to eat it, I’ll buy a bunch for you!”
The Lengs and the Tangs were family friends, and Leng Xuanming was the older brother that she had known since she was young. so he had sent her an invitation letter to his party when he returned to the country. If she didn’t come, it would have been too disrespectful.
However, Tang Xinrou didn’t like to let Song Yaoyao suffer.
“You’d better send him to the hospital for a check-up, or it’ll be too late.”
Song Yaoyao was eating the cake when she suddenly blurted out this sentence.
The topic changed so quickly that Tang Xinrou couldn’t think straight. She was stunned. “What? You mean—” She looked at Leng Xuanming, who was talking to the others, and her expression gradually became serious.
She didn’t ask if Song Yaoyao was being serious. After knowing her for so long, it was enough for her to completely believe in Song Yaoyao’s medical skills.
If Song Yaoyao said that Leng Xuanming had a problem, then it meant that he really had a problem.
But now was not the time to talk about such things. They had to wait for the party to end first.
The deafening electronic music irritated Song Yaoyao’s heart, so she pressed on her chest. Her body was healthy now, but she was still used to being quiet. The sudden noise made her heart palpitate.
“Uncomfortable? Why don’t we…” before Tang Xinrou could finish, Song Yaoyao interrupted her.
She shook her head and narrowed her eyes at the entrance of the villa.
A few more people walked in from outside. They were handsome men and beautiful women, especially eye-catching.
“It’s her?” Tang Xinrou looked over as well. When she saw a beautiful barbie-like face, she couldn’t help but be surprised.
Song Yaoyao raised her eyebrows.
Leng Xuanming had already walked up and shook hands with the man in the lead.
Today, Zhong Li was dressed in casual clothes. His jet-black hair was casually styled. He curled his lips and smiled charmingly. The girls around him couldn’t help but blush and scream.
Her gaze moved from Zhong Li to his side.
The girl holding his arm was very young. She looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, and she looked like a Barbie in a shop window. Every part of her face was so exquisite that she didn’t look like a real person.
“Who is she?” She looked like a mixed-blood.
Tang Xinrou said, “Her name is Lily. She was born in Country Y, and her father is Chinese. She is the second female lead of Celestial Wars, which is being screened overseas this year. She is even more popular than the female lead.”
“Oh?” Song Yaoyao constantly watched films, but she hadn’t paid attention to this one.
“In the movie, she plays a violent girl who is especially strong. Her character is more likable and eye-catching than the female lead,” Tang Xinrou explained. “However, this movie hasn’t been released in China yet. I happened to be filming an advertisement overseas a while ago, so I went to the cinema to watch it.”
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to recognize this girl.
“Right now, she’s extremely popular in Country Y. She’s the goddess in the hearts of countless boys.”
She had a petite figure, but she was still hot. The parts that were supposed to be big were big, and the parts that were supposed to be thin were thin. In addition, she had an exquisite, three-dimensional baby face. Among the group of big-boned female stars, she was indeed unique and very eye-catching.
“Do you think she looks like someone?”
In the distance, Lily could feel that someone was looking at her. She looked over curiously and realized that the person looking at her was an especially cute oriental girl. She immediately flashed a friendly smile at her.
“Like who? I think so too, but I can’t point it out.” Tang Xinrou frowned and racked her brains. That sense of familiarity had always lingered in her heart. She had felt it when she first saw the movie, but she couldn’t tell who exactly she looked like.
Until this moment, when Song Yao brought it up again, Tang Xinrou fell into a dilemma again.
“Don’t you think she looks a lot like Alice?”
Song Yaoyao shrugged and took a sip of her drink. “If you didn’t say that her father was Chinese, I would have thought that Alice had another sister.”
“Ah! You’re right! No wonder she felt familiar. She looks just like Alice!”
Tang Xinrou slapped her forehead, and an epiphany dawned on her.
“However, she’s not as exquisite as Alice, and the two of them have completely different temperaments.” If they were more similar, it wouldn’t have taken her so long to realize who she looked like.
Alice was smart but delicate, and people wanted to hold her in their arms and protect her. But Lily was the powerful, vigorous and aggressive type. There was a kind of ambition in her eyes that could ignite the desire in people’s hearts.
