Chapter 236 Mr. Huo and I are a couple who have long since parted ways.



Today she was wearing a gold sequined halter dress, the neckline almost reaching her navel, and her impressive cleavage made the men sitting next to her stare in amazement.

The high slit in the skirt made the men drool.

Her makeup was also extremely eye-catching, charming and alluring, exuding a captivating allure.

Calling her a rare beauty is an understatement; it doesn't do her beauty justice.

Even Tang Li, though outwardly unconvinced, couldn't help but inwardly exclaim, "So beautiful, so incredibly beautiful!"

Xi Leng is the kind of beauty whose natural features are diminished when she's on camera. That's why Tang Li didn't feel the same sense of amazement when she saw Xi Leng's photos on Zha Zhongqi's phone.

But actually, she is really too attractive.

"Did you see Song Xiling?"

Her surname is Song?

Even their surnames are taken from their adoptive parents?

Although Song Nanzhou was blind, he could tell from Tang Li's tone and the whistles and exclamations of the men around him that Xi Leng had appeared.

He had met Xiling once abroad. Hongmian's assessment of Xiling at the time was that she was like a warm stove in the late spring cold, and everyone who saw her would want to have her.

It's easy to imagine how beautiful she is.

Tang Li broke off a crab leg and hummed in dismay:

"I don't know her."

Although he couldn't see Tang Li's expression, Song Nanzhou knew that Tang Li was already jealous.

He smiled knowingly, took a handkerchief from his pocket, and handed it to Tang Li:

"Wipe your hands, she's coming."

Tang Li looked up and saw that Xi Leng had indeed walked over.

She sat down and stared at Tang Li, then asked Song Nanzhou:

"I visited Hongmian when I returned to China. You left her abroad for the sake of this lady sitting across from you, didn't you?"

Xi Leng crossed his legs, leaned his upper body slightly towards Song Nanzhou, and rested his chin on his hand, as if this would make it easier to observe Tang Li.

"Although Hongmian is very sad, I can understand you. After all, it is natural for men to marry and women to be married when they are of age."

After saying that, she extended her hand to Tang Li:

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Xiling. I am an adopted daughter of the Song family. I am also a cousin of Nanzhou. It's a pleasure to meet you. You are even more beautiful than I imagined."

Tang Li did not use Song Nanzhou's handkerchief to wipe her hands.

After sitting down at Xiling, he deliberately peeled a few spicy crayfish, then waved his hands apologetically and said:

"I'm sorry, my hands are covered in oil, and I'm afraid I'll soil Miss Xiling's delicate hands."

Despite being rejected, Xi Leng did not show the slightest sign of unhappiness.

Instead, he sat up straight, picked up Song Nanzhou's chopsticks, placed a few spicy crayfish on Song Nanzhou's plate, brought it to himself, and peeled them while saying to Tang Li:

“Nanzhou is a very considerate person, but peeling shrimp is indeed a bit difficult for him. Here, sister-in-law, let me help you.”

Cousin's sister-in-law.

hehe.

Seeing that her hands were covered in grease, Tang Li wiped them with a wet tissue, then wiped them a second time with a hot towel, and finally wiped them a third time with the handkerchief that Song Nanzhou had given her.

Xi Leng watched her movements and said teasingly:

"Now that my hands are covered in grease, my sister-in-law will definitely be even less willing to shake hands with me, right?"

She kept referring to her as "cousin-in-law".

It seems he's playing dumb.

Zha Zhongqi once said that she was determined to have Huo Chenyu.

As the successor secretly groomed by the Eastern Song Dynasty, she certainly possessed the most basic common sense of knowing herself and her enemy.

Therefore, she must know who Huo Chenyu's ex-wife is and what she looks like.

"In that case," Tang Li asked Song Nanzhou with a smile:

“Mr. Song, if you don’t mind, how about we get a marriage certificate and get married first? Otherwise, I can’t accept your sister calling me ‘sister-in-law’.”

Upon hearing the words "getting a marriage certificate," Song Nanzhou felt a warm current flow through his body.

But he knew that Tang Li was joking about Xi Leng's words.

Before he could answer, Huo Chenyu, who was sitting not far away, had already lost his composure.

Just then, he walked up to Tang Li, pulled up a chair, sat down facing Tang Li, took a tissue to wipe Tang Li's mouth, and asked:

"Are you full? If you are, shouldn't you come eat with me?"

Xi Ling feigned surprise:

"Shen Yu, what...you and your girlfriend from Nanzhou..."

Song Nanzhou immediately said:

“Xileng, Miss Tang and I are just friends. She and Shen Yu are the couple.”

Tang Li turned her head to meet Huo Chenyu's eyes and said, word by word:

"Mr. Song is not accurate enough. Mr. Huo and I are a couple who have long since parted ways."

Xi Leng quickly grasped the meaning behind Tang Li's words and smiled sweetly:

"So, Miss Tang is Shen Yu's ex-wife. It's an honor to meet you."

Tang Li handed Xi Leng a wet tissue to her as she reached out her hand again.

"Miss Song, please wipe your hands first."

Xi Leng feigned grievance:

"Miss Tang really dislikes me."

Tang Li casually grabbed a tissue, wiped her mouth, and then stood up:

"I'm sorry, I'm allergic to seafood and have a bit of an upset stomach after eating, so I'll have to leave now. Enjoy your meal."

Another bout of diarrhea!

Song Nanzhou smiled to himself, realizing that she really was a lame excuse that could be used countless times.

After Tang Li turned and left, Huo Chenyu immediately stood up as well.

But Xiling reached out and stopped him a moment earlier:

“Chen Yu, why don’t we eat with Nan Zhou? It’s been a long time since the three of us have gotten together like this. Thinking back to our younger days, it really feels like a dream.”

Huo Chenyu was about to shake off Xi Leng and chase after Tang Li when he saw that Song Beiye had appeared beside Tang Li, who had walked dozens of steps away.

There was also Lu Zhixing silently guarding the entrance.
