When Chen Ruowei heard this, her expression was naturally ugly, but in the presence of everyone, it was hard to get angry, so she had to hold back her anger and smile in response.

Qin Song didn't care what his mood was. Once his mission was completed, other things were none of his business.

After Lin Xiao and Xu Yan entered the banquet hall, Lin Xiao was naturally pestered by business leaders from all walks of life.

Naturally, Xu Yan also had her home court, and she found Su Mei, who also came to attend the birthday party.

"Why are you here too?" Su Mei looked at Xu Yan and asked.

Xu Yan asked, "Can't I come?"

Su Mei said: "No, I thought you didn't want to come."

"Why don't I want to come?"

Su Mei came closer to her and whispered in a gossipy tone: "Who doesn't know that the Chen family has been thinking about your Lin Xiao for more than a day or two."

Xu Yan sneered and said, "Why should I avoid their elevator? Why do I have to make room for them?"

Su Mei said: "What the hell, isn't this because I'm afraid you will react?"

"Are you isolated? No, not at all." Xu Yan said.

Su Mei said: "You are really broad-minded."

Xu Yan said: "Seeing that I can't eat it makes my heart beat like a knife."

Su Mei was completely impressed, and then said: "I will not come out of sight and out of mind, let alone let Lin Xiao come."

Xu Yan did not tell Su Mei that the purpose of their coming here was not to attend a birthday party.

Xu Yan looked around and finally saw the purpose of coming here in one place.

She turned her gaze in Lin Xiao's direction, and Lin Xiao also looked over, as if sensing something.

The two looked at each other, Xu Yan looked in the direction of Chen Zhilian, and Lin Xiao also looked over.

Lin Xiao didn't know what he said to the people around him, and then walked towards Xu Yan.

He walked up to Xu Yan. Before Xu Yan could speak, Su Mei took the lead and said, "You guys talk slowly, I'll leave first."

After saying that, without waiting for Xu Yan to answer, she turned and left.

Xu Yan looked at her leaving figure, then looked at Lin Xiao again.

Lin Xiao said: "Let's go and ask."

The two of them walked up to Chen Zhilian together.

Xu Yan was smiling, while Lin Xiao was expressionless. The two of them walked up to Chen Zhilian.

The girl who was originally talking to Chen Zhilian seemed to sense that something was wrong in the atmosphere, so she said something to Chen Zhilian and left.

Chen Zhilian looked at Lin Xiao and Xu Yan, and his heart trembled for a moment, but the calmness of these days still made him relax his vigilance.

Originally he was worried about Lin Xiao's revenge on him, but it had been so long and he didn't see Lin Xiao's anything at all.

Regardless of whether he didn't find it or couldn't touch him for some other reason, this made Chen Zhilian full of confidence.

He thought to himself that after all, he was the eldest young master of the Chen family, so Lin Xiao had to give them some thin noodles.

So what if he kidnapped Xu Yan's sister, nothing really happened.

It was impossible for Lin Xiao to embarrass him for a woman, let alone a woman's sister.

"Lin Xiao, do you have a problem with me?" Chen Zhilian said with a nonchalant expression.

"Besides you, who else is the mastermind of the kidnapping case?" Lin Xiao asked.

Chen Zhilian's expression was stunned. He didn't expect Lin Xiao to ask such a straightforward question, and in public.

He planned the kidnapping case, but it shouldn't be under such circumstances. Just asked it like that, and what did Lin Xiao mean? He didn't think he would be stupid enough to admit it, right?

"Lin Xiao, what are you talking about? Why did I become the mastermind?" Chen Zhilian said reproachfully with anger on his face.

Lin Xiao said: "How do you know what kidnapping case I'm talking about?"

Chen Zhilian's expression was choked, and it took him a while to react: "Lin Xiao, what do you mean? This is the Chen family. If you want to cause trouble here, you have to check the venue."

Lin Xiao stopped talking to her, but looked at Xu Yan and said, "You guessed it right, he really won't admit it."

Xu Yan suddenly realized why he hadn't noticed before that Lin Xiao had such a bad side.

"Then, there's no need to waste time here." Xu Yan said, and then left with Lin Xiao.

Chen Zhilian was left with a puzzled look on his face. He was not sure what Lin Xiao meant.

What did that one mean just now? Test him?

He was baffled here, and Lin Xiao had already arranged the next thing.

The birthday party went very smoothly, everyone talked loudly and exchanged glasses.

Chen Ruowei has an elegant figure and walks among the guests. Listen to everyone's praise and blessings for her.

She came to Lin Xiao and Xu Yan, holding champagne. This time she said to Xu Yan: "Miss Xu, I am very happy that you can come to my birthday party."

"How happy are you?" Xu Yan asked bluntly, leaving Chen Ruowei stunned.

It took a while for him to react: "Ms. Xu, that's so humorous."

Xu Yan smiled at her. Chen Ruowei said: "To express my gratitude, I toast you. I hope you don't believe the rumors that A Xiao and I have some misunderstandings."

With that said, he waved to the waiter not far away.

The waiter was holding a tray with two glasses of wine on it.

Chen Ruowei picked up one of the glasses and handed it to Xu Yan, saying, "I'll give you a toast."

Xu Yan looked at the wine in her hand and did not take it immediately.

The surrounding people cast cryptic glances, but Xu Yan finally took the wine glass, clinked the glasses with Chen Ruowei, and drank the few drinks in the glass.

Chen Ruowei watched her finish the drink in one gulp, with disgust in her eyes, but it turned into happiness in an instant.

She suppressed the corners of her mouth that couldn't help but treat it as a good show today. A gift for her.

After Xu Yan drank, Chen Ruowei said to Lin Xiao again: "Axiao, let me toast you too."

However, Lin Xiao was not as cooperative as Xu Yan. He said directly: "No need."

He once again failed Chen Ruowei.

"Is this what I taught you?" Before Chen Ruowei could express her grievances, someone had already stood up for her.

The three of them looked to the side where the sound was coming from.

Lin Jinxuan came over at some point with a few old men.

He and another old man walked in front of the queue. Xu Yan knew the other old man, Chen Ruowei's grandfather.

There is a smile on his face, but if you look closely, you will find that the smile does not reach the bottom of his eyes. It is commonly known that he is smiling but not smiling, but because he pretends to be so good, others think he is a very kind person. old man.

The one who spoke was Lin Jinxuan, who stared at Lin Xiao with burning eyes.

His eyes were full of displeasure.

Lin Xiao looked at him, and then picked up the glass of wine under everyone's gaze.

When Chen Ruowei saw this, a smile appeared on his face.

Lin Xiao drank all the wine in the cup.

Lin Jinxuan frowned at his actions, but said nothing more.

His eyes fell on Xu Yan, but he moved away just for a moment.

It was as if Xu Yan was insignificant in his eyes, or in other words, he didn't take her into consideration at all.

When Chen Ruowei saw this, the expression on her face smiled even more happily, then she walked up to Old Chen and shouted coquettishly: "Grandpa."

Old man Chen patted her hand holding his own and said dotingly: "You are still acting like a spoiled child at such an old age. You are not a child."

Chen Ruowei said: "I don't care, no matter how old I am, I am still my grandfather's granddaughter."

Although Old Man Chen said he was disgusted, his behavior was very sincere. He took his granddaughter's hand and said to everyone behind him with a smile: "This little girl has been spoiled by me."

People around him were flattering and took the words jokingly. Anyone who wasn't a fool would know that Old Man Chen meant it in a nice way.

Xu Yan calmly left the circle that excluded her.

Her departure did not attract the attention of anyone else, except Lin Xiao and Xu Yan.

When Xu Yan was about to leave, Lin Xiao held her back.

Everyone looked over and Xu Yan said, "I'm a little dizzy. I'll go over and sit down."

"I'll accompany you there." Lin Xiao said.

But just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Lin Jinxuan: "Lin Xiao, please stay, Mr. Chen has something to tell you."

Old Man Chen took over and said, "In the second half of the year, the cooperation between Chen and Lin will not be a big deal."

Lin Xiao did not let go of Xu Yan's hand, but Lin Jinxuan was still waiting for him to express his stance.

Seeing this, Xu Yan patted Lin Xiao's hand and said, "It's okay, don't worry about me."

"I'll go with Miss Xu." Chen Ruowei said proactively at this time.

After she finished speaking, she let go of her grandfather's hand, walked to Xu Yan, and said, "Miss Xu, I think you are drunk. Let me help you go to the lounge to have a rest."

Xu Yan looked at Chen Ruowei's attentive attitude and said after a while: "Okay, thank you then."

"You're welcome, after all, you are a guest. I should take care of you." Chen Ruowei said, and then she said to Lin Xiao: "Axiao, don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Xu."

Lin Xiao let go of Xu Yan's hand, Xu Yan smiled at Lin Xiao, and then left with Chen Ruowei.

Chen Ruowei took Xu Yan towards the lounge.

"Are you very proud that Lin Xiao treasures you so much?" Chen Ruowei said suddenly as the two of them walked in the corridor while avoiding the crowd.

Xu Yan stopped and looked at Chen Ruowei's back and said, "Why, haven't you given up yet?"

Hearing this, Chen Ruowei also stopped, then looked back at Xu Yan, the expression on his face had become cold: "Give up, why should I give up? Who do you think you are? It's just a delusion flying up a branch." Crow whose head turns into a phoenix, do you think you will win now?"

Xu Yan looked at Chen Ruowei and said, "Win? Have we ever competed?" The implication was that she had never regarded Chen Ruowei as an enemy.

Or to be more precise, Chen Ruowei didn't deserve her attention at all. Not even qualified to be an enemy.

Chen Ruowei gritted her teeth at this moment. She looked at Xu Yan, her eyes that gradually became blurred, her figure that became increasingly unstable, her steps that were stumbling and leaning against the wall.

Chen Ruowei grabbed Xu Yan to prevent her from falling, then supported her and walked forward without saying a word until she came to a door.

Chen Ruowei looked around and saw that no one was around, then she opened the door.

Xu Yan followed her into the house.
