Chapter 90 The engagement is no longer valid
Jiang Yao looked a little embarrassed, but still went ahead and introduced him to Jiang Haozhe.
"Uncle, Li Beiting is the senior who lives in the villa across from me."
The moment the words fell, Jiang Haozhe and Li Beiting suddenly realized at the same time.
No wonder the back figure I saw before looked so familiar!
I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.
After figuring it out, both of their faces turned extremely ugly and regretful.
What Jiang Haozhe regretted was that if he had known that the man who had broken off his engagement was the one living next door, he would have gone and beat him up in the head!
What Li Beiting regretted was that if he had known that the Jiang family's daughter was Jiang Yao, he would never have chosen to cancel the engagement.
Qin Jinxiu, who was standing by, seemed to have figured out some of the tricks. A gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he spoke tentatively.
"Just now I heard Mr. Li say that the Li family and the Jiang family seem to have an engagement?"
When Jiang Haozhe heard this, his expression immediately changed, "Bah!"
He almost cursed.
But at the last moment, he held back and said sarcastically, "Didn't Mr. Li cancel the engagement between the two families a long time ago? Why bring up the engagement again? Isn't that a joke?"
As he spoke, his gaze fell on Qin Jinxiu, "Mr. Qin, you are handsome and elegant, and you and my daughter Yaoyao are a perfect match. I think you two are a perfect match!"
Qin Jinxiu's face immediately lit up with joy when he heard this, and he looked at Jiang Yao with deep affection.
"I really like Miss Jiang very much. It would be the greatest honor of my life if I could become her partner."
Several people spoke in unison.
When Li Beiting heard this, his breath was held, his heart tightened, and his eyes were fixed on Jiang Yao, fearing that she would nod in agreement.
Everyone present looked at Jiang Yao, wanting to hear her make her own choice.
Jiang Yao looked helpless. What was going on?
After thinking about it, she finally chose an answer that would not embarrass anyone present.
"Sorry, I just want to focus on my studies right now. I'm not in the mood for a relationship. Sorry."
After he finished speaking, Li Beiting felt relieved. While he felt relieved, there was still some loss in his eyes that he could not hide.
Not far away, Old Man Li took in the look in his grandson's eyes and felt dizzy with anger.
This brat!
What a piece of shit!
He actually ate from his bowl while looking at what was in the pot. That's really outrageous!
Let’s see how he teaches him a lesson later!
…
The Jiang family naturally chose to respect Jiang Yao's decision.
Just at this time, other guests came to say hello, so Mr. Jiang followed Jiang Haozhe to entertain the guests.
Before leaving, Jiang Haozhe did not forget to glare at Li Beiting fiercely with a warning look.
Li Beiting felt bitter inside, as if he had shot himself in the foot.
Qin Jinxiu, on the other hand, was not pessimistic even though he was rejected.
As long as Jiang Yao doesn't have a partner now, it means he still has a chance.
"Then Yaoyao, we are still friends, right?"
Qin Jinxiu blinked her beautiful peach blossom eyes and deliberately put on a pitiful look.
Jiang Yao smiled and said, "Of course, always."
Qin Jinxiu smiled again, and his smile was captivating.
It is not impossible to start by being friends and impress her step by step.
How could Li Beiting not see through his thoughts?
"I heard that Young Master Qin has so many female confidantes that they could circle a whole city! I'm afraid that his affectionate performance just now was due to his rich experience."
"That's just a rumor. I deliberately spread it so I wouldn't be bothered by other women. Actually, I'm a very loyal person. Once I've set my mind on someone, I won't change easily."
Qin Jinxiu raised the corner of his mouth and sneered, "Unlike Mr. Li, who looked down on Miss Jiang and wanted to cancel the engagement, and now he's still clinging to her shamelessly. Don't you know how to spell the word 'slap in the face'?"
When it comes to the ability to poke people's lungs, he is no less capable.
The two men's eyes met again, and the crackling smell of gunpowder spread in the air again.
Jiang Yao held his forehead with his hand because of a headache.
Fortunately, the banquet came to an end soon.
When the other young men saw Qin Jinxiu and Li Beiting, two such outstanding people, competing for Jiang Yao, they gave up and left one after another.
As soon as the banquet ended, Old Man Li rushed forward angrily, his eyes spitting fire.
"Li Beiting, go back!"
Li Beiting originally had a lot to say to Jiang Yao and wanted to explain the reason for breaking off the engagement.
But seeing that his old man looked like he wanted to rush over and pull him away, he had no choice but to leave first.
But before leaving, he saw that Qin Jinxiu still wanted to stay and talk to Jiang Yao, so he narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Mr. Qin, please come out for a moment."
Qin Jinxiu crossed his arms and immediately showed an attitude of "Why should I listen to you?"
"Recently, Qin's and Liheng Group have a cooperative project. As the president of Liheng, there are some issues that I need to explain to you clearly."
Li Beiting gave a high-sounding excuse.
Qin Jinxiu's eyelids twitched after hearing this.
This guy is actually the president of Liheng?
He knew that he was deliberately using the project as an excuse, but as the project leader, he naturally couldn't ignore it.
"Okay." He gritted his teeth and agreed.
Jiang Yao quickly sent the two giant Buddhas away together, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
She was so tired today that she felt she needed a good rest.
Outside the manor.
"Boss Li, you can tell me what's going on now!"
Qin Jinxiu looked at him sarcastically.
"Nothing, just a reminder to Mr. Qin that next time you discuss a project, you can contact me directly."
Li Beiting answered casually.
Qin Jinxiu sneered in anger, "Boss Li, let's be frank. Aren't you just afraid that if I spend too much time with Yaoyao, she'll be moved by my sincerity?
There's nothing I can do about it. You can only blame yourself for not seizing the opportunity. You had a good engagement in your hands, but you threw it away, handing the opportunity over to me for nothing. I should thank you for that!"
I have to say, he knows how to piss people off.
Li Beiting's face was gloomy. "Let you give it to me? Can you control it? Will Yaoyao even look at you? As a person, you should know yourself and not be sentimental."
Qin Jinxiu's face turned black with anger.
"Then let's each rely on our own abilities to see who can capture the beauty's heart."
Qin Jinxiu said this lightly, turned around and walked away.
Li Beiting also left in the other direction with an expressionless face.
Old man Li beside him hurriedly followed.
"Stop right there, you little brat! You haven't explained yourself clearly yet. Didn't you say before that you had someone you liked? What's going on today?"
He knew his eldest grandson's character too well. He always maintained a cold attitude towards people and things he didn't care about.
Even when facing those old foxes in the business world, he can remain calm and unmoved.
This was the first time he saw Li Beiting confronting others in such a tit-for-tat manner.
It's like a tit-for-tat clash!
The more I thought about it, the more something seemed wrong.
"..." Li Beiting felt as if his face was slapped when he thought about how he had firmly proposed to cancel the engagement and expressed that he was not afraid of offending the Jiang family and did not need to please them at all.
The truth just can't be told.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Old Man Li became even angrier.
Not knowing what he was thinking of, Old Man Li suddenly realized what was going on. He slapped his thigh and looked at Li Beiting beside him. "I say, could it be that the granddaughter-in-law you mentioned to me before is the granddaughter of the Jiang family?"
After he finished speaking, Li Beiting's expression became even gloomier.
Although he still didn't answer, at this moment, Old Man Li had already guessed the answer.
“What a sin!”
