After the divorce, I became a rich girl

Chapter 232 Meeting an acquaintance

Xue Tao laughed twice when he heard Xiao Yi's request: "Hey, didn't Jiawei take you with her?"

Xiao Yi ignored Xue Tao's teasing and asked directly: "Can you help me get an invitation letter?"

Xue Tao smiled and replied: "The brand originally invited you, but I know you don't like this kind of banquet, so I declined it for you. If you want it now, I will call the brand again, and they should be happy to give you one."

Xiao Yi said: "Okay, then please help me get an invitation letter and send it over as soon as possible." Then he told Xue Tao the location of the courtyard.

Xiao Yi put on a royal blue suit, the slim fit perfectly outlined his tall figure, broad shoulders and narrow waist, showing the charm of a mature man. After receiving the invitation, he took a car to the charity dinner.

As the lights came on, a grand dinner party kicked off. The dazzling light enveloped the entire banquet venue. The banquet hall was magnificent, with gorgeous crystal chandeliers hanging from the towering ceiling. Countless crystals refracted colorful light, like a dazzling rain of starlight falling on the world.

Li Jiawei stepped onto the red carpet, which felt soft and thick under her feet, as if she was walking on a gorgeous galaxy, guiding her to the center of the dinner.

Li Jiawei thought she was dressed very formally, but after entering the banquet, she found that she was insignificant compared to the others. Every guest was dressed in a gorgeous evening gown and a smart suit, which was the epitome of what it means to be dazzled by jewels.

The ladies' evening gowns were elegant or dazzling, exuding charming charm; the men were graceful and gentlemanly. She also saw several stars she often saw on TV, dressed more exaggeratedly.

The long dining table was covered with a white tablecloth and decorated with exquisite tableware and flowers. The silver tableware sparkled coldly under the light, contrasting with the delicate and beautiful flowers, creating a noble and romantic atmosphere. The fine wine in the crystal glass exuded an alluring aroma.

At this moment, Li Jiawei truly experienced what it meant to be extravagant and dissipated. The banquet scene she saw on TV was far less shocking than what she felt at this moment. She didn't know anyone here, so she followed the waiter's guidance and sat down at her seat. Because she had an invitation from Li Ronghua, her seat was in the first row, at the same table with the brand owners.

As soon as Li Jiawei sat down, she felt many eyes focused on her. As a newcomer attending such a banquet for the first time, and sitting so close to the front, she naturally aroused the curiosity of others.

She pretended to be calm. After all, she was here on behalf of her father, Li Ronghua, and she couldn't show her fear. Li Jiawei picked up the bottle of water in front of her, unscrewed it, took a sip, and then slowly looked around.

At this time, she saw He Zhizhou who was talking to someone. Seeing an acquaintance, Li Jiawei was delighted, poured mineral water into a goblet, and walked towards He Zhizhou.

Walking behind He Zhizhou, the man who was talking to him immediately stopped the topic, looked at Li Jiawei and said with a smile: "Miss, are you looking for Zhizhou?"

He Zhizhou turned around and saw Li Jiawei. He was a little surprised and said, "Jiawei, why are you here?"

Li Jiawei smiled and said, "Brother Zhizhou, the invitation letter was for Dad, but he has an appointment tonight, so he asked me to come in his place."

The man noticed that He Zhizhou was very affectionate towards Li Jiawei, and teased, "Zhizhou, when did you meet this beautiful girl? Introduce her to me."

He Zhizhou introduced with a smile: "Jiawei, this is Zhong Yi."

Li Jiawei nodded and smiled at Zhong Yi: "Hello, I'm Li Jiawei."

He Zhizhou then said to Zhong Yi: "Zhong Yi, this is Li Yan's sister, Li Jiawei."

Zhong Yi looked at Li Jiawei curiously and immediately extended his hand: "Hello, hello! You are the sister of Li Yan. I often hear him mention you. Today I finally meet you in person. Your brother Li Yan and I are good friends. From now on, you can call me brother."

Li Jiawei held Zhong Yi's hand: "Hello, Brother Zhong Yi."

When Zhong Yi heard the word "brother", he immediately smiled. He is the only son in his family, and all his relatives are boys. He has always wanted to have a sister. Li Jiawei's "brother" made him like her even more, and he said generously: "Sister, take whatever you like, and I will pay for it for you."

Li Jiawei was a little overwhelmed by Zhong Yi's enthusiasm and looked at He Zhizhou. He Zhizhou felt her pleading eyes and said to Zhong Yi: "You are fine, Jiawei doesn't need you to pay for it."

Zhong Yi reacted and laughed, "Oh, I'm pretending to be a rich man in front of the God of Wealth." Although the Zhong family is also very rich, there is still a certain gap compared to the Li family.

Li Jiawei smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Brother Zhong Yi. I appreciate it."

He Zhizhou looked at Li Jiawei: "Jiawei, I haven't congratulated you on your engagement yet."

Li Jiawei smiled and said, "Thank you."

Zhong Yi immediately asked, "Sister is engaged? When did it happen?"

Li Jiawei replied: "We just got engaged two days ago."

Zhong Yi asked hurriedly: "Why didn't you come with your brother-in-law?"

Li Jiawei smiled and said, "He has something to do today."

Zhong Yi said he understood, and then said, "Since you missed your sister's engagement party, I must give you a gift today. Tell me which one you like."

Li Jiawei wanted to refuse, but He Zhizhou said, "It's okay, Jiawei, just keep this guy. He just made a lot of money in the stock market recently."

When Li Jiawei heard He Zhizhou say this, she said to Zhong Yi: "Then thank you, Brother Zhong Yi."

Zhong Yi smiled and said, "Why are you being so polite to me? When I was in college, I often borrowed your brother's money to spend. You could say that your brother was the one who supported me during those years abroad."

He Zhizhou listened to Zhong Yi talking about his glorious college life again, and then he said to Li Jiawei, "He eloped abroad with his girlfriend at that time, and his parents stopped his credit card. After he broke up with his girlfriend, he had no money at all, so he ate and drank with your brother."

Li Jiawei looked at Zhong Yi, who was dressed in elite attire, and she really didn't expect that he would elope with his girlfriend.

Zhong Yi was interrupted by He Zhizhou, but he was not angry. Instead, he said with emotion: "If a man does not go crazy when young, he will live in vain. Isn't it the same for you? In the beginning, in order to pursue..."

When Zhong Yi said this, he saw He Zhizhou's eyes move slightly. With Li Jiawei here, he knew that the Li family had the wrong daughter taken away, so he immediately stopped talking and said cryptically: "Okay, I won't say anything. I know that you haven't forgotten her yet."

Li Jiawei looked at Zhong Yi who was hesitant to speak, and then looked at He Zhizhou who didn't want to talk about the past, then smiled and changed the subject: "Brother Zhizhou, this is my first time attending such a party, is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

He Zhizhou looked at Li Jiawei and replied, "There's nothing to pay attention to. There will be some items being auctioned on the stage later. Just take pictures of anything you like."
