3140 Xiao Yuzhe
“Right, you’re right, Mr. Ling. I shouldn’t have said that.” Miss Pan apologized at once. Because her status was lower than Ling Tianqi’s, she didn’t want to annoy him. “I shouldn’t bother you any longer. See you later, Mr. Ling.”
As Miss Pan said that, she pulled Miss Yang and walked away.
“That’s funny. What did the two women want to say? There is nothing between you and Xia Han. Why did they suddenly come and ask you why you’re not with her?” Feng Rui complained.
They were smart men, but they had a different outlook from women, so they couldn’t understand some things.
For example, some girls were angelic bi*ches, and girls could see through them at a glance, but men usually couldn’t. Instead, men were attracted to them.
Leng Xiaoyao beamed and said, “If I guess correctly, I think the woman called Xia Han has feelings for Tianqi. The two women should be her friends. Since they know that Xia Han had feelings for Tianqi, they misunderstood our relationship when they saw us standing together. So she deliberately mentioned Xia Han to let us know that Tianqi isn’t available. She was trying to keep us away from Tianqi.”
Leng Xiaoyao made that guess because it couldn’t be more obvious.
“What? Seriously? Why do I feel like she’s an idiot?” Pei Heran said, talking about Miss Pan.
“It’s indeed idiotic. After all, there is nothing between Tianqi and Xia Han. If there was, it wouldn’t be wrong if Miss Pan said that, but she looks like an idiot now,” Leng Xiaoyao said.
“Xia Han isn’t likable,” Feng Rui said.
“She’s hateful and disgusting,” Ling Tianqi agreed, his voice full of disdain.
After Miss Yang and Miss Pan walked away, they complained about Ling Tianqi.
“Mr. Ling embarrassed us publicly! How could he reply to me like that,” Miss Pan said.
“He indeed embarrassed us, but there is nothing between Mr. Ling and Xia Han. It’s normal that he was unhappy when you said something like that,” Miss Young reasoned. She didn’t support Miss Pan in doing that. She thought they were going to exchange simple greetings, but unexpectedly Miss Pan mentioned Xia Han.
“Aren’t you our friend? Why are you defending Mr. Ling?” Miss Pan was displeased. Although Miss Yang was right, she had a good relationship with Xia Han. If Xia Han had feelings for Ling Tianqi, she hoped that they could get together and just wanted to help Xia Han.
After being criticized by Miss Pan, Miss Yang was unhappy and retorted. “Of course I’m your friend, but I can’t ignore reality just because of that.”
“You…” Miss Pan was mad, but she knew Miss Yang wasn’t wrong, so she couldn’t say anything.
After all, there was no need for her to damage their friendship over this. They were the closest friends!
…
Before the birthday party began, Master Mo was absent, but his son and daughter-in-law were busy welcoming guests.
His grandchildren were chatting with familiar faces in the banquet hall. Because there were too many people and they didn’t know everyone, they didn’t exchange greetings with every guest.
The Mo family had three grandsons and two granddaughters.
The eldest grandson, Mo Jingxuan, and the youngest grandson, Mo Jinfeng, were kids of Master Mo’s first son. The second grandson, Mo Jinlin, and the eldest granddaughter, Mo Jinbei, were kids of Master Mo’s second son. The youngest granddaughter, Mo Jinle, was the kid of Master Mo’s third son.
Master Mo’s first son had a good relationship with the third son, but the second son didn’t get along well with them.
Mo Jinfeng was comparatively stable, while Mo Jingxuan was a playboy. Mo Jingxuan was twenty-seven years old, but still fooled around every day. He was often absent for a while, and no one knew where he went.
Therefore, the Mo family gave up on Mo Jingxuan, the eldest grandson, and didn’t make him the heir.
Mo Jinfeng and Mo Jinlin were competing for the position right now, but they couldn’t take over their family in this generation, because one of their fathers would. However, if they wanted to be the heir of the next generation, they had to prepare for it from now on.
Even if Mo Jingxuan was given up on, the elders in the Mo family still attached great importance to him because Mo Jingxuan had a good relationship with many important figures.
At that time, Mo Jingxuan brought two friends out of the lounge. These two friends were born in major families in the capital.
Accordingly, many guests recognized them and politely greeted them when they showed up.
They replied to them politely as well, but that was all.
Leng Xiaoyao noticed Mo Jingxuan by accident. Because Mo Jingxuan didn’t show up publicly very often, she didn’t know him, but she recognized the man next to him.
She recognized the man, not because she knew he was the heir of a major family in the capital, but because the man had a relationship with Li Mochen. In the previous incarnation, she had met him twice.
And she still remembered his name, which was Xiao Yuzhe.
At that time Xiao Yuzhe had even mocked her, but Leng Xiaoyao didn’t harbor grudges against him. After all, she was indeed hateful in the previous incarnation.
Because Leng Xiaoyao’s gaze fell on them for a while, they noticed her, but there were many people watching them, so they didn’t think Leng Xiaoyao recognized one of them.
Anyway, they were amazed by Leng Xiaoyao’s appearance.
“Hey, that girl in a black gown is so beautiful,” exclaimed Xiao Yuzhe.
“She is elegant and pretty.”
“But I don’t think she’s accessible.”
Mo Jingxuan and the other man talked about Leng Xiaoyao.
“I don’t think so. She’s looked at us for a while. Why don’t we go and strike up a conversation with her?” Xiao Yuzhe accepted the challenge.
“Why not!”
Mo Jingxuan and the other man were interested. They wanted to see whether Xiao Yuzhe could succeed.
Although Xiao Yuzhe had never failed to strike up a conversation with a woman, they somehow felt he would fail this time.
