Just as Lee Chengji was thinking about how to teach Lee Miaoyin a lesson, he saw a Young Noble standing at the entrance of his Lee Mansion. The Young Noble's face was as white as jade, handsome and modest.
Looking at his facial features, he seemed to have some traces of Master Qi. Could it be that he was Qi Hongxuan? The most favored of the Qi Mansion's Third Young Master, the one who was going to tie the knot with Miaoyu, Qi Hongxuan?
The resentment that filled her vanished in an instant, revealing a flattering smile as she stepped forward, "Miaoyu."
Lee Chengji had never met Qi Hongxuan and had only heard of him. Even though he had already guessed the identity of the other party, he could not say it out loud.
Miaoyu was relieved. She quickly turned around and blessed Lee Chengji. Smiling, she said, "Daddy, you're back."
Lee Chengji was completely focused on Qi Hongxuan and didn't pay any attention to Lee Miaoyu's expression. He only glanced at her indifferently and said with a smile, "This is?"
Lee Miaoyu's face immediately blushed when she heard that. She said shyly, "Daddy, this is Third Young Master Qi that my daughter mentioned to you."
Lee Chengji pretended to be enlightened, but the flattering smile on his face didn't diminish in the slightest. He was disgusted by what he saw, but had to put on a polite front to greet him. No matter what, he was still Miaoyin's father.
"Greetings, Lord Li."
Qi Hongxuan cupped his hands towards Lee Chengji. He looked polite, respectful, and as warm as jade. Lee Chengji became more and more happy when he saw that the other party was a son of the Hou clan and was willing to be so courteous to a small boy like Assistant Prefectural Magistrate.
Lee Chengji nodded his head and said, "Rumor has it that the Qi Mansion's Third Young Master is very dignified and modest, but I don't believe that after seeing him today, he actually won against all the rumors. He really is one of the top young men in the world."
He had only been in the Jiangdu for two years, and had never met my father before. How could he know what kind of character my father had, and this was clearly a flattering remark. Fortunately, he had already gotten used to this kind of flattering and fawning face since he was young.
"Lord Li is too courteous. To suddenly visit your esteemed mansion today, this will bring you inconvenience. Sir Li, please do not take offense." Qi Hongxuan smiled faintly.
Lee Chengji glanced at Lee Miaoyu, who was very tactful, and immediately answered, "Father, it's like this. Your daughter accidentally offended Young Master Qi today, so I wanted to invite him to drink and apologize. But Young Master Qi said that he didn't want to go to the restaurant and wanted to eat our family's usual dishes, so your daughter —"
Lee Chengji was elated, he secretly believed that Miaoyu's words were just an excuse, but he wanted to find an opportunity to get along with him, but unexpectedly, Qi Hongxuan asked to join Lee Mansion, probably because he wanted to do a final observation for the media, so he definitely could not slack off on him, but looking at his expression, it seemed that his daughter really wanted to win some face for him, so he had to reward her well, and not let her be like maidservant, and let Madame Xu Yang get more clothes and jewelry for her.
After a series of courtesies, Lee Chengji led Qi Hongxuan into the Qi Mansion and led him directly to the main hall for tea. He also ordered Madame Xu to prepare a banquet immediately.
Qi Hongxuan only wanted to look at Lee Miaoyin, so he answered Lee Chengji absent-mindedly. From time to time, he would look towards the door of the main hall, hoping that the wonderful person would suddenly appear.
Lee Chengji seemed to have noticed his absent-mindedness. He thought that since he came to Lee Mansion for the first time, he must want to interact more with Miaoyu. If he left him here, he would definitely be unhappy.
