On the weekend, Qiao Mu was dragged to a banquet by Baby Guan. It was a private banquet of the Lu family. Baby Guan said that she would be officially announced as Lu Jingzhiâs fiancée tonight.
Qiao Mu thought that she could ask Li Yanâs brothers when he was coming back at such an important occasion.
After arriving at the banquet, Baby Guan went to look for Lu Jingzhi. Qiao Mu was bored and strolled around the banquet when she saw Ling Xi.
Ling Xi smiled and walked up to Qiao Mu. â Sister-in-law, why are you loitering around here alone? â Why didnât you come with my big brother?â
Qiao Mu was stunned. â Li Yan is back? â
âYou donât know?â Ling Xi frowned. â Big Brother will be attending this banquet today. Didnât he tell you when he came back? â Qiao Muâs heart instantly turned cold.
Li Yan did not contact her when he returned!
Ling Xi realized that he had said something wrong. He coughed lightly and said, â Well, actually, I donât know exactly when my brother will be back. I only know that he will be here tonight. â
Qiao Mu only felt her throat burning. Since Ling Xi said that Li Yan would come, she would wait here!
Beijing Airport.
Li Yan got off the plane and got into the car.
Lei Yi drove and reported the recent matters of the company. At the end, he said, â Young Master, Miss Qiao went to the company to look for you. I told her that Jin Jin will be back in a few days. â
Li Yan raised his eyes. â Murong Chao is still restless. Let him keep an eye on Qiao Mu. I donât know what he can do, so we should be more careful for now. â
After this matter was completely resolved, he would tell her clearly that he would endure it for two days.
âYoung Master, if Miss Qiao knew that you were back and hid it from her, would she misunderstand?â Lei Yi asked.
âNo, sheâs not that petty.â Li Yanâs words came naturally.
The little thing had already confessed to him and knew her feelings. He had never felt so at ease before. Even if he was busy with other things, he was very assured of her.
Young Master is thinking too much about women!
Suddenly, a cold gaze swept over. Lei Yiâs body stiffened and he immediately retracted his gaze to focus on driving.
Behind her, the manâs voice sounded darkly, âLei Yi, I remember that you told me that Qiao Mu went to Hong Kong as an exchange student? â
Lei Yi was speechless.
F * ck! Why did this man suddenly mention this when he was unprepared?
Lei Yiâs expression did not change. â Young Master, I didnât say that. I just wanted to tell you that Miss Qiao has gone to Hong Kong. Fourth Young Master told me about this. When I found out, I immediately told you! â
If Young Master wanted to pursue the matter, he would blame it all on Young Master Ling!
Li Yanâs lips curled up and he snorted coldly. â Ling Xi is quite bold. He even dared to bribe the people around me! â
Lei Yi was speechless. There was no bribery at all, alright? He was loyal to the heavens!
Lei Yi immediately changed the topic. Are your injuries alright?â
Li Yan kowtowed. â Itâs Uncle Luâs birthday party today. Of course I have to go. â
At the banquet, Qiao Mu waited anxiously. Ling Xi was also bored, so he sat beside Qiao Mu.
Suddenly, Ling Xiâs phone rang. He opened his phone and looked at the message. It was from Lei Yi:âYoung Master knows what you instructed me to do. Heâs about to arrive at the banquet.â
Ling Xi put away his phone and stood up. Qiao Mu looked at him in confusion, only to see him smile and say, âââ1 suddenly remembered that I have something to do.. Iâll leave first! Big brother is here, send my regards!â
