Chapter 126 No Invitation
Chapter 126 No Invitation
Meeting place.
"Assistant, have all the people I personally invited arrived?"
"We're here, we're all here."
"That's good. I'll go get ready!"
"Ok."
The assistant watched Yunzhi's departing figure and realized, "Oh no, it seems we're still missing one person."
Lin Xi!
Oh no, she forgot to mention that. If Sister Yunzhi finds out, she'll be furious.
She rushed towards the door, hoping she was still in time...
.......
"Hello, please show me your invitation."
Two receptionists at the entrance of the venue reached out to stop them, speaking in a formal tone.
Lin Xi stopped and spoke softly, "My name is Lin Xi. Yun Zhi should have told me, right?"
The two looked at each other with puzzlement, and both shook their heads.
"I'm sorry, we haven't received any information. If you really don't have an invitation, I'm truly sorry."
It shouldn't be.
Lin Xi took out her phone and made a call.
Hello, your call is temporarily unanswered.
Lin Xi called again, but there was still no answer.
They're probably busy. Wait a bit longer, or go back if necessary.
"Oh dear, who is this? Why is someone blocking the entrance and preventing them from even getting into the venue?"
A slightly sarcastic voice rang out.
Lin Xi turned her head and looked in the direction of the sound.
Liu Kai walked over dressed smartly, with a beautifully dressed woman hanging on him.
Sure enough, I didn't check the almanac before going out today, and I ran into this terrible thing again.
Seeing that she didn't reply, Liu Kai said even more arrogantly, "Isn't this the rich woman Lin Xi? What, you couldn't even get an invitation? Well, what about you...?"
"What, you got away last time, now you're here to pay the price?" Lin Xi interrupted him abruptly.
"What debt are you going to pay back?" Liu Kai suddenly realized something, and his face turned ugly. "You don't even deserve to be called by my name? You didn't even have an invitation."
"Whether I can get in or not is none of your business. It doesn't stop you from calling me 'Grandma'," Lin Xi said indifferently.
"You!" Liu Kai looked at her delicate face, suddenly touched his chin, and said with a wicked smile, "Why don't you come in with me today? As long as you call me 'good brother,' how about it?"
"Brother, who is this woman? Didn't you promise to take me in? What am I going to do if you take her in?" a sweet, coquettish voice called out.
"It's okay, don't worry, your brother has two invitations."
After comforting the woman beside him, Liu Kai immediately looked at Lin Xi and said smugly, "How about that? If you miss this opportunity, you might not be able to get in."
After he finished speaking, he looked her up and down with ill intent.
This woman is someone he's been longing for for a long time. If she were to give in to him, he might consider forgiving her for what she did before.
"No need, I'll take her in." A gentle voice sounded from behind.
Ye Jinran strolled over from behind, her features exuding elegance and nobility.
Liu Kai glanced at the people walking towards him, immediately going through most of the wealthy second-generation heirs in his mind, and then repeatedly confirmed that this person was not among them.
"Who are you? This is between Lin Xi and me. How dare you interfere?"
He felt his good deed had been ruined and said angrily.
"What do I have to do with you? Don't try to make yourself look good," Lin Xi said bluntly.
That's just how she is; she says she can still play with him for a while, but says her friend can't.
"So you've hit the jackpot. No wonder you were able to pay so much money in one go that day," Liu Kai said with a disdainful look.
"Excuse me, I should say I've hooked up with Xixi." Ye Jinran said, then looked at Lin Xi teasingly, "Right, my Xixi, the rich lady?"
"How is that possible? How could she be so rich?" Liu Kai said in disbelief, then he looked at the arrogant man in front of him with an impolite gaze. "You two adulterers, you've teamed up to play me for fools, haven't you?"
Lin Xi looked at Liu Kai with pity and shook her head. "You're really pathetic. You don't even know the young master of Shanghai. Your good days are probably coming to an end."
After Lin Xi finished speaking, she looked at the man beside her and said, "Jinran, let's go in."
He started to walk inside as he spoke.
"Don't go, explain yourself!" Liu Kai rushed over immediately, trying to grab Lin Xi.
Ye Jinran quickly grabbed his hand, twisted it, and her face was icy cold.
"Aaaaaah, it hurts, it hurts!" Liu Kai screamed in agony.
Ye Jinran suddenly flung Liu Kai away, sending him flying a meter away.
Lin Xi looked at him with a surprised expression.
Who would have thought that someone who looks so lean would be so strong? Not bad at all!
"You just wait, you'll regret it if you offend me." Liu Kai struggled to his feet, uttering harsh words.
Lin Xi and Ye Jinran both looked at him expressionlessly, and just as they were about to speak, a series of hurried footsteps grew closer.
"Have you seen Ms. Lin coming over?" Her voice arrived before she did.
Ms. Lin, that Ms. Lin.
The two receptionists at the entrance of the venue turned their gazes toward Lin Xi in unison.
Liu Kai's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Ms. Lin really is Lin Xi?
No, definitely not. It's just the same surname. Yes.
Liu Kai kept hypnotizing himself.
"Did you receive...?" The assistant finally arrived, panting, and asked. Suddenly seeing the stunning figure standing in front of her, she quickly stepped forward and said with delight.
"Ms. Lin, you've arrived. It was my oversight. Sister Yunzhi repeatedly told me to give the instructions properly, but I forgot because I was busy. It's my fault for keeping you waiting. May I take you there now?" The assistant's tone was still a little nervous.
Seeing her somewhat uneasy expression, Lin Xi said softly, "It's okay, I just arrived."
The assistant finally relaxed and then noticed the tense atmosphere on the field.
"How is this going?"
The two receptionists recounted the whole story in detail. The more Liu Kai listened, the more uneasy he felt, but thinking of the person inside, he involuntarily straightened his posture.
The assistant's face darkened upon hearing this. Lin Xi was someone personally entrusted by Sister Yunzhi, yet this person dared to cause trouble in their establishment!
"That's a misunderstanding. I didn't know Lin Xi—oh, no, this Ms. Lin—was your distinguished guest, otherwise I..."
"Keep a close eye on him, don't let him in." After saying that, the assistant turned to Lin Xi with a smile, "Ms. Lin, let's go in. Oh, and Mr. Ye, please join us. We've already arranged seats for you."
Lin Xi nodded and went inside.
The two receptionists were secretly glad they hadn't said anything they shouldn't have, and quickly stopped Liu Kai when he tried to barge in.
"Why won't you let me in? I have an invitation! Let me in!" Liu Kai shouted from outside, being blocked.
