Ming Li saw that his expression was bad and was about to express his concern, "Lute's help..."
However, he only had time to call out to him before Lu Feng used his finger to stroke his chin and seized the initiative, "Mr. Ming, I just received notice that tonight's gathering has been cancelled. You and Madam Ling, please return."
Mingli, who had a much higher IQ than the average person, couldn't react in time, "What do you mean?"
Actually, it was not that he did not react, but Lu Feng's tone was very firm when he said 'please'. He did not even add in words of support, so how could he not be clear that something had happened? They came with such fanfare, how could they go back so mysteriously?
Lu Feng snorted coldly, with a dark expression that was the standard when he bullied his subordinates. "You'll understand when you go back and ask your daughter what good deed she has done."
A light flashed across the eyes that MinLi hid behind his glasses. It was actually caused by this unfilial woman!
"What has Xueluo done? Please enlighten me with your help."
"I advise you not to ask too much. It's better to leave now." "Otherwise, if you want me to expose the actions of the noble daughter in front of your entire family, I don't care. It's just that you two might never have the chance to raise your heads again in the future."
Hearing Lu Feng's threats, Dai Weiping wanted to persuade him to calm down, as there was nothing she could do. But since she was standing there, she could easily see the situation outside, so before she could open her mouth, she saw the Ming brothers, who were led by Ming Loyalty. She was a shrewd woman, and from the look on Lu Feng's face, she knew that he wasn't just casually speaking. If they were to insist on staying, then the more they persevere, the more embarrassing it would be.
He made a prompt decision and said to Mingli, "Let's go back first."
Under the hint of her eyes, Ming Li saw the "brothers and sisters" who had already entered, and tactfully said: "Lu De, then we'll leave first, and we'll come back another day to bother you."
Lu Feng didn't give him any response. The cold expression on his face made people completely forget that the person who was talking to Ming Li just now was actually that person.
Mingli and Dai Weiping walked quickly to the first arch and met the three brothers and Mingyi on a narrow path.
Mingli felt it was too embarrassing to speak, so she squeezed Dai Weeping's shoulder and told her to tell these people to go back.
"Big Bro, Third Bro, Fourth Bro, Little Sis, I'm sorry, the plan has temporarily changed. The Party has been cancelled, we have a new table at the Roman Holiday Inn, please move over there."
However, the children of the Ming family weren't idiots, how could they be dismissed by her? This afternoon, the two of them returned to the old house in the Ming family. Their appearances were unprecedented pride and arrogance, their tails were almost reaching the sky, as though they were about to rise to greatness. They even invited them to their daughter's birthday party in an extremely polite manner, and especially mysteriously said that they would like to introduce someone to them … Looking at how uneasy they were, something must have happened to them. How could these people let go of the opportunity to make fun of them?
Ming Lian was the first to speak up, "Second brother and second sister, what's going on? Didn't you say you wanted to introduce someone to us? "Now that we're all here, why don't you come out and meet us?"
Ming Yi was the most in cahoots with him. He quickly said, "That's right, Second Brother and Second Sister, don't hide it anymore. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Some things will smell if they are covered up."
Ming Loyalty and Ming Zhe also expressed their opinions. Although their opinions were different, the central meaning was the same. They were both waiting to see Ming Yi and Ming Zhe make a fool of themselves.
Ming Li waited for them to finish mocking and ridiculing him before he pushed his glasses and nonchalantly retorted: "Don't you guys know that today is April Fool's Day? I was joking with you guys, but you guys can't even tell? Do you really think that many people are idiots?"
Once again, Ming Lian's face darkened. Who was he calling stupid?
Just as Lan Xiao was about to jump out to argue with him, a beautiful waitress pushed a cart and walked out. She didn't know what had happened and didn't look at the crowd, but she asked Lu Feng, "Brother Feng, I'll take these out first. Do you want to see if they have enough of these drinks?"
Lu Feng didn't even spare a glance at him as he said with a long face, "No need, the event is canceled."
Lan Xiao didn't ask why, only replied. "Alright, I understand." With a wave of her hand, she signaled the waiter to push the drinks back into the warehouse. Then, she heard an uncertain voice from not too far away, "… "Lan Xiao?"
Lan Xiao's usually cold face suddenly flashed with unease. It could be said that her beautiful face had lost all color. Even in death, she wouldn't forget this voice. This was the voice of the third young master of the Ming family, Ming Lian. She turned her head stiffly and saw the person she didn't want to see the most in her life.
Ming Lianzheng was facing her now pale face, which was the complete opposite of how she reacted. It was as if he was overjoyed.
He was no longer in the mood to mock Mingli and Dai Weiping, and when he pushed Lin Hui away from him, Ming Lian wanted to walk up to Lan Xiaoxiao. He couldn't remember how many years he had not seen her, as if it had been a century, so long that her face had blurred in his mind; or as if they had parted only yesterday, because her smile and her voice had never left his dreams.
However, just as he took one step forward, Lin Hui, who was standing beside him, tugged on his arm and glared at him with a face as black as the bottom of a pot and eyes as sharp as knives, strongly implying that he now had all the brothers and sisters of the Ming family.
Lin Hui could not have imagined that the Mingli couple had invited them here to plot against them. There were so many brothers of the Ming family, yet they chose to make a move on them first. Why? No matter how many tricks they played, how many obstacles they put in their way, they couldn't shake Ming Lian's position, because he was the first son of his parents, a pure eldest son of the Ming family! Both he and Ming Loyalty were just a burden!
Lin Hui also did not expect Lan Xiao, this little bitch, to dare stay in C City. Five years ago, she had left her with a chance to live; five years later, she would not be as merciful as she had been in the past.
Lin Hui's eyes looked as though they were shooting throwing daggers right into Lan Xiao's body. However, she resisted the urge to rush up and grab her by the hair and slap her in the face. She didn't say or do anything, only glare at Lan Xiao with contempt and hatred. She wasn't the kind of woman who didn't know what was important. Everyone was here, and no matter what she said or did, they would be shamed. She hated Lan Xiao, hated his and Ming Lian for their dirty deeds in the past. But now that the old master was out of the hospital, his strength had been greatly damaged. She might even be called by God one day.
For the big picture, Lin Hui chose to endure.
However, her patience could not ensure their safety in the face of such a crisis. The matter between Ming Lian and Lan Xiao had been the biggest scandal of the Ming family, and the other brothers were reminded of the shameful events that had occurred. How could they let go of such a rare opportunity to defeat them?
Ming Zhong was the first to ask, "Third brother, who is this? Why don't you introduce him?"
He had the deepest grudge against Ming Lian, because he was not Ming He's biological son, Ming Lian usually never treated him as his eldest brother, always thinking that he was the eldest son of the Ming family. Furthermore, the old hen in his family didn't lay eggs, and their son was adopted, so Ming Lian was even more arrogant in thinking that he was the legitimate eldest son and grandson, and didn't put him in his eyes at all. Now that he finally had the chance, he had to vent his anger.
Ming Lian turned his head to look at Ming Lian. Although Ming Lian's eyes weren't friendly, but he wasn't as strong as Ming Lian. He wasn't as fierce as Ming Lian when he was arguing with him. Because... Lan Xiao was a weakness in his heart. As soon as he saw her, his heart softened.
That year, Lan Xiaoxiao was the new bartender in their clubhouse. She was very young and beautiful, and once, when Ming Lian was entertaining her friends at the clubhouse, he accidentally saw her studying making wine.
Afterwards, Ming Lian would go to the clubhouse every night to drink a cup of wine. Lan Xiao's craftsmanship was still unfamiliar at that time, and the wine he concocted was always unsatisfactory, but he always came to support her. Of course, he would also give her some small, constructive suggestions that wouldn't hurt her feelings.
Lan Xiao didn't know Ming Lian's identity. Ever since the day he had approached her, he had greeted those in the clubhouse who knew that he was the third young master of the Ming family.
After a while, in Lan Xiao's eyes, Ming Lian had become a teacher and a friend.
Their relationship had changed a year after Lan Xiao had arrived at the clubhouse. Lan Xiao had been chosen by the clubhouse to study in Bordeaux for a period of three months, and of course, Ming Lian had been the only one to add fuel to the fire. He knew that she liked mixing wine, so he had managed to win this opportunity for her through their relationship.
In the second month after she arrived in France, when Lan Xiaoxiao had been robbed, her backpack had been stolen, containing all her valuables, passports, wallets, bank cards, and ID cards. She had been so anxious and panicked that she had no idea what to do, so she called her manager at the clubhouse and asked for help.
The manager of the clubhouse was very clear on what Ming Lian was thinking about her. Naturally, this matter was immediately brought to Ming Lian's ears. While Ming Lian told the manager to calm Lan Xiao down and tell her that the club would find a way to help her solve this problem, he booked the closest flight and immediately set off for Bordeaux.
When Ming Lian appeared before Lan Xiao, exhausted and exhausted, asking her, with incomparable worry and nervousness, if she was alright, could anyone imagine what she must have been feeling like in a foreign land, alone and helpless?
Yes, it was a complete mess of emotions, an uncontrollable one. She already had a favorable impression of him, a mature and wise man. At this moment and in this situation, how could she not surrender quickly?
Lan Xiao and Ming Lian were together.
