Chapter 221 Falling (1/2)



A few minutes ago, a man in a suit stopped Lu Sixue.

The man was very young, probably in his teens.

He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and when he saw Lu Sixue, his eyes unconsciously revealed surprise and joy: "Miss Lu, I didn't expect to meet you here!"

Lu Sixue was stunned when she saw this. She looked carefully at the young man in front of her and found that she had no impression of him at all.

But she knew that the people who could enter this banquet today were most likely rich or noble, so she put on a decent smile and answered: "Excuse me, who are you...?"

The young man with glasses didn't care that Lu Sixue didn't recognize him. When he saw Lu Sixue talking to him, he answered with a slightly excited smile: "Miss Lu, don't you remember me? I'm Xie Wenhui's elder brother, Xie Wenqi. We met at Wenhui's birthday party before!"

Hearing this, the smile on Lu Sixue's face gradually faded.

She originally thought he was a young master from some family, but unexpectedly he was Xie Wenhui's brother.

Xie Wenhui's family background is average. Although her parents work in the system, they are not in high positions, and the family has no property. In the final analysis, they are just salaried workers with a stable job.

Xie Wenqi was young and was working at the bottom of the system to gain experience. Lu Sixue thought that Xie Wenqi was here probably because he was in charge of connecting with Wu Peiyi's research institute at the government, so he got the qualification to attend this dinner.

A man with Xie Wenqi's conditions was not even within Lu Sixue's consideration range.

Even if Xie Wenqi gets promoted in the future, that will be a long time in the future. Lu Sixue doesn't want to spend half her life accompanying a man to grow up.

So Lu Sixue raised her hand to gather the hair around her ears and asked perfunctorily: "It's you, long time no see, how is Wenhui?"

Since the Lu family went bankrupt, Xie Wenhui has never contacted Lu Sixue again, and Lu Sixue almost forgot about this little follower.

Xie Wenqi nodded happily and answered seriously: "Wenhui is fine, but she doesn't dare to go out after dark and stays at home all the time. If Miss Lu misses her, she can come to our house anytime."

Lu Sixue found it a little funny when she heard this - she went to the Xie family? What virtue and ability did the Xie family have that was worthy of a visit from the eldest daughter of the He family?

Lu Sixue just responded perfunctorily and left with Zhao Lili.

After Lu Sixue left, Xie Wenqi stared at her back in a daze, his eyes gentle and affectionate, his face full of admiration.

He has liked Lu Sixue for a long time, but unfortunately, before Lu Sixue was the eldest daughter of the Lu family, he couldn't afford her. Now Lu Sixue is the daughter of the He family, he still can't afford her...

Xia Jianing had just gone to get a dessert, and when she came back she happened to see Xie Wenqi chatting up Lu Sixue.

Now seeing Xie Wenqi staring at Lu Sixue's back in a daze, Xia Jianing bit her lower lip somewhat unwillingly - Xie Wenqi was always reserved and distant in front of her, he had never looked at her with such gentle and affectionate eyes!

Xia Jianing walked up to Xie Wenqi with the dessert in her hand and asked him with some resentment, "Wenqi, what are you looking at?"

Xie Wenqi came to his senses after hearing this. He turned his head and glanced at Xia Jianing. He changed his gentle and flattering attitude towards Lu Sixue just now and said with a somewhat cold expression: "...I didn't see anything."

Xia Jianing looked at Xie Wenqi's distant and cold expression, and clenched the porcelain plate of dessert in her hand: "Don't lie to me, I saw it all just now, you were chatting with that girl... Who is she? Do you know her?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Wenqi looked at Xia Jianing impatiently, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

Xia Jianing wore a goose yellow dress today. Although it was not easy to dress decently in a year of natural disasters, Xia Jianing's dress seemed a little too simple at today's banquet, and even gave people a cheap feeling.

Compared with the rich girls around her who were dressed in gorgeous dresses and jewels, she seemed like an outsider who accidentally strayed into this world.
