Deep fall

"You have won the prize, thank you for the dress!" Shen Lifu smiled, and said lightly: "Tonight is just to accompany an ordinary friend to attend the anniversary banquet of his family business."

"Ordinary friend?" Xu Lian squinted her eyes and said with a meaningful smile: "Miss Fu, you are really popular with men, and ordinary friends always invite you to attend banquets as a female companion, unlike me, I am not as lucky as you gone."

"You're not bad, isn't Ah Qiang often introducing people to your store? Your business here is getting better and better!" Shen Lifu raised her head slightly, her lips and brows were slightly raised, with a half-smile explain.

She had indeed heard some recent rumors about the scandal between A-Lian and Zhao Junqiang, but it was A-Lian who pretended to be A-Qiang's woman to the outside world, and A-Qiang just treated her as an ordinary friend.

"Sister Fu, you misunderstood, I have nothing to do with Brother Qiang..." Xu Lian hurriedly explained, as if she was afraid that Shen Lifu might misunderstand something.

"You don't need to explain to me, Ah Qiang and I are just ordinary friends!" Shen Lifu narrowed her eyes deeply, shrugged her shoulders, and told her meaningfully: "But Ah Qiang wants to be his friend." There are a lot of women here, I advise you to restrain yourself, lest you get caught in the fire!"

After the words fell, before Xu Lian could say anything, Shen Lifu got up and left.

The anniversary of "Shenghe International" is naturally a major event in the business world, and almost well-known media and high-end people at home and abroad were invited to attend.

The entire anniversary celebration is divided into three parts, the awards ceremony in the morning, the all-media meeting in the afternoon, and the celebrity banquet in the evening.

Originally, Cheng Xingyu was the legitimate heir of "Shenghe International". On such an important day as the anniversary, he should be indispensable in all three parts.

However, his uncle and aunt now control the power of "Shenghe International", and they just eliminated him from the first two links. He only received an invitation letter to the evening banquet of celebrities.

When Shen Lifu and Cheng Xingyu arrived at the gate, the gate of the banquet venue was already full of luxury cars, and all the reporters had also arrived.

"What are you doing? The banquet has already started?" Shen Lifu caught a glimpse of this situation and cried out speechlessly: "Isn't it written on the invitation letter that it will start at eight o'clock?"

Cheng Xingyu smiled desolately: "It seems that I have been tricked again! This banquet should have started long ago!"

"Damn, how could your uncle and aunt treat you like this? It's worse than my stepmother!" Shen Lifu defended him.

"Forget it, I won't go in today! I won't be more embarrassing if I go in!" Cheng Xingyu said rather discouraged with a gloomy look in his eyes.

"How can that be done? They deliberately wrote the wrong time on the invitation letter they gave you, just because they don't want you to really go in! But you are the heir of 'Shenghe International', so you are excluded with ulterior motives like this, are you willing? Shen Lifu frowned, her pretty face serious.

"What can I do if I'm not reconciled?" Cheng Xingyu smiled bitterly, her eyes forbearing.

Shen Lifu stared at him, a cunning flashed across her eyes: "I have an idea!"

……

In the hall of the venue, the guests gathered, drinking and drinking!
Cheng Zhutao and his wife Ma Linong are the protagonists of tonight's anniversary celebration, naturally they are like ducks in water, their faces are full of red!
They were surrounded by many guests greeting each other, suddenly Cheng Zhutao's eyes lit up, and he immediately led his wife to welcome him excitedly.

"Mr. Mo, Ms. Liang, your presence in person really makes tonight's anniversary celebration full of splendor!" Cheng Zhutao greeted them happily with a happy face.

However, the reactions of Jue Moxi and Liang Zirui in front of him were very calm.

"It should be our honor!" With a faint and elegant smile on the corner of his mouth, Jue Moxi stretched out his hand to shake Cheng Zhutao, and greeted politely.

"I heard that the two of you are about to get engaged. I would like to congratulate you in advance. On the day of the engagement banquet, I will definitely bring my wife to join me!" Cheng Zhutao said with a smile.

Ma Linong also complimented: "Mr. Mo and Ms. Liang are really a match made in heaven!"

Hearing this, Liang Zirui smiled shyly, and glanced at the expressionless face of Jue Mo Xi beside him, his heart immediately turned cold, and his expression also became stiff.

Seeing this, Cheng Zhutao and Ma Linong seemed to have sensed something, exchanged some pleasantries with them, and hurriedly found an excuse to leave.

"Jeez, do you really dislike me attending this banquet with you?" Liang Zirui suppressed the turmoil in her heart, raised her head, her eyes were sore again, and asked sadly.

"No!" Sir Moxi's indifferent handsome face showed no expression, and his tone was cold.

Liang Zirui clenched her fists, stared at him for a moment, and asked unwillingly: "If Shen Lifu is by your side tonight, would you be happier?"

"What do you want to say?" Sir Moxi gave her a cold look with his deep eyes, and his deep voice was undeniably severe.

Liang Zirui's eyes were filled with sorrow: "Actually, I was forced to come here today. I didn't know it beforehand. It was my mother..."

"That's enough!" Sir Moxi interrupted impatiently, his expression still cold, and his voice without warmth: "I don't want to know about your affairs!"

"..." Liang Zirui seemed to have been hit hard by something.

She stared wide-eyed and looked at him in disbelief, feeling like she had fallen into a frozen pool and couldn't extricate herself.

The surrounding temperature dropped several degrees Celsius in an instant, and the air became stagnant.

"Jeez!" At this moment, a familiar charming voice suddenly came from behind them.

Holding Duan Hanze's arm, Gao Yifei walked in front of them gracefully.

"Zrui, are you there?" As if she just saw Liang Zirui, Gao Yifei had been looking at Jue Moxi just now, and now she had to say hello to her "best friend" Liang Zirui.

"Yeah!" Liang Zirui was in a panic at the moment, and she didn't have the extra energy to socialize with others.

Gao Yifei saw something wrong with her face sharply, and exclaimed on purpose: "Zirui, what's wrong with you? You look so ugly?"

"It's okay, it's nothing...I'm going to the bathroom!" Liang Zirui shook her head quickly, turned around and rushed to the bathroom.

Gao Yifei looked at the back of her leaving, with a flash of jealousy in his eyes.

However, when she turned around, she returned to her usual expression. She couldn't see any hostility towards her "best friend" Liang Zirui, but pretended to care.

"Jeez, is Zirui okay?"

Mo Xijue shook his head lightly, but his deep eyes fell on Duan Hanze beside Gao Yifei.

Duan Hanze obviously noticed him a long time ago!
In the air, the eyes of the two men collided suddenly, as if they could hear the sound of electric fire colliding with each other...
