Chapter 216: The Dinner Party 4
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
All along, Auntie Zhuang had been very discreet. Her food was separate from
Ye Leng’an’s. Although she could prepare it together, she was a helper after all, and she couldn’t squander the house owner’s things so unscrupulously!
However, although their food was separated, she did not eat badly. The difference was that Miss Ye had a wide selection of dishes made of expensive ingredients.
“Wow! Mom, it’s a lobster!” Li Qiaong already sat down without any hesitation and began to eat heartily. “What’s wrong with you today?
Previously, you didn’t want to use these expensive ingredients for yourself. Abalone? Kazufuru? What happened?”
She fell into the delusion that she was the owner of this house, having an expensive and exquisite dinner in a luxurious villa.
“What are you talking about? This is for Miss Ye.” Auntie Zhuang also sat down and said with a smile. “Miss Ye forgot to tell earlier that she was going to attend a dinner party today. She’ll co back later for dinner.”
“A dinner party?” Li Qiaong suddenly felt that the sumptuous food in front of her didn’t taste good anymore. “What kind of dinner party is it? Is it like the banquet that we saw on television?
She had only seen banquets on television. That was the scene she had dread of. In the banquet hall, n were dressed in suits and won in gorgeous evening gowns. They were toasting and laughing.
“I don’t know about that either.” Auntie Zhuang shook her head. “That’s her business. I can’t ask about the details.”
Li Qiaong pursed her lips and didn’t ask any more questions. However, at this mont, her thoughts had gone sowhere else.
In the banquet hall, after Ye Li finished his speech, Nangong Xuyao went up and invited Ye Xiyuan for the first dance.
Ye Xiyuan naturally didn’t refuse. She placed her hand on Nangong Xuyao’s hand and the two of them slowly slid onto the dance floor.
They looked like a perfect couple.
None of the people present were fools. So of them were shocked to see
Nangong Xuyao show up. Although the Nangong family was unsurpassed, they had t Young Master Nangong by chance.
The news that the young master of the Nangong family had co to attend the birthday party of the daughter of the Ye family and got the first dance with her spread quickly in the banquet hall.
Instantly, everyone began to have a new perspective on the Ye family. One had to know that it was impossible for a wealthy family like the Ye family to have any connection with the Nangong family. However, with the appearance of Young Master Nangong, did it an that the Ye family had already been associated with the Nangong family?
Also, the Ye family’s business seed to have been developing rapidly recently, and they even managed to win so projects that they were not supposed to get at all. Did it have sothing to do with the Nangong family? If that was the case, then they really had to re-evaluate the Ye family’s business.
For a ti, many people went up to Ye Li and called him brother as if they were very familiar with him, and there was even a hint of flattery in their tones.
Ye Li felt that this should be his most glorious mont so far. Those people ca forward to butter him up, making him feel that he was above them.
At this mont, everyone had smiles on their faces, except one person in the corner who was unsmiling and looked gloomy. This was none other than Li Deze.
Ever since he t Ye Xiyuan, he had been deeply attracted to her. He knew very well that he had fallen in love with her, an understanding girl. All along, he had thought that the Li family and the Ye family would be united by marriage sooner or later and this was also a tacit understanding.
But during this period of ti, Ye Xiyuan suddenly beca much more indifferent to him and rejected all of his invitations and never went out alone with him again. He didn’t know why, but now he completely understood.
However, he was not illegible to question her because everything was just his wishful thinking. The two families never talked about marriage alliance. Moreover, in reality, he did not have any advantage over the young master of the Nangong family. Whoever she was, she would probably choose Young Master Nangong, not him!
However, even so, he still wanted to find an opportunity to get it clear so that he could drop the idea forever.
After the first dance, Li Deze’s patience finally snapped. He found an opportunity and went forward to invite her. “Xiyuan, may I have the pleasure to invite you to dance with ?”
Everyone was shocked by his sudden move.
Because they could see there was sothing between Ye Xiyuan and Young Master Nangong. It was impossible that the two of them had nothing to do with each other. So, everyone tacitly agreed that Ye Xiyuan was Young Master Nangong’s girlfriend.
Was Li Deze competing with Young Master Nangong publicly? He was really bold!
Ye Li pulled a long face. He was very unhappy with Li Deze’s sudden move at this mont though he knew that Li Deze liked his daughter. If Young Master Nangong hadn’t appeared, then Li Deze would have been a very good match. Joining forces with another powerful family would definitely bring them more benefits.
However, after Young Master Nangong showed up, Li Deze would definitely not be the perfect choice. In his opinion, Li Deze’s current actions were to destroy the relationship between Ye Xiyuan and Young Master Nangong.
Li Deze’s parents, on the other hand, looked quite anxious. They did not expect their son to do such a thing. After all, things were different now. Young Master Nangong took a fancy to Ye Xiyuan. The Li family was obviously inferior to the Nangong family.
If Young Master Nangong vented his anger on the Li family because of Li Deze’s reckless behavior, what should they do?
Ye Xiyuan was stunned for a mont when she saw the hand suddenly appear in front of her. However, she quickly recovered and looked at Nangong Xuyao beside her. “Brother Nangong, can I dance with Brother Deze?”
After that, she smiled mischievously at Li Deze. “Brother Deze, you’re like my biological brother. I definitely won’t turn my brother down..”
