Lin Manrong told the truth, but she didn't tell the whole story.
Just imagine, if Lin Manhui really uses this to deal with Beigu, she can marry into the Lu family later, and this idiot has this handle in his hand...
What's more, it's not just Lin Manhui who has the upper hand. The "male companion" outside the back door has also become a chess piece in his hands.
That one is much more useful than that stupid woman Lin Da.
Once it's accomplished, these two people will be able to get whatever they want from me in the future.
No need to dirty your hands...
Lin Manrong was in a good mood.
Su Xiaoli had no idea of the coming storm.
She only felt that Lu Sinian's hand on her waist was getting hotter and hotter, and even the palm of her raised hand was sweating.
"Are you too hot from dancing? Should we take a break?" Su Xiaoli suggested.
Men's formal wear already has one more layer than women's, not to mention that the two of them danced for so long.
Lu Sinian retracted his hands.
——There is indeed some heat that cannot be dispelled.
He ordered two glasses of champagne.
"It's a light alcohol drink. Today is our big day, so you're allowed to drink a little." Lu Sinian's tone became more and more like that of an older brother.
Su Xiaoli accepted his kindness.
Just as she took a few drops into her mouth, she heard a voice, "Miss, your call has been transferred to your room."
Su Xiaoli quickly put down the cup, picked up the camera, smiled at Lu Sinian, and turned away.
Lu Sinian looked at her back and naturally knew that the call at this time was most likely from Gu Feihan.
His eyes darkened.
I couldn't help but want to take a big gulp of iced champagne.
Recalling the slender waist he had just held, his hand unconsciously reached out for Su Xiaoli's cup, picked it up and looked at it carefully.
The tulip-shaped champagne glass looks exactly like her figure.
Tall, slender, and upright, it contains the aroma of wine and those lovely, crystal clear little bubbles.
There were faint lip marks on the edge of the cup.
Lu Sinian drank the champagne from the glass.
The call was naturally from Gu Feihan.
Su Xiaoli half-leaned on the sofa, listening to Gu Feihan's low and mellow voice, she felt the room was stuffy and hot. Although the air conditioner was on, there was not a trace of cool breeze.
There were thunderous sounds coming from the distant sky.
Her body was getting hotter and hotter like the weather. Her eyes were hazy and the "brands" on her neck where he had bitten her were numb.
"Gu Feihan, I miss you so much... When will you arrive in Hong Kong Island?"
Su Xiaoli stammered, her voice full of pleading, and even a hint of crying.
"My dear little Li...it will be soon. I miss you so much, I will get ready faster and faster."
Gu Feihan's heart was trembling and his speech was incoherent.
Xiao Li’s voice...can almost kill me.
He had been working almost non-stop these days, fully preparing materials for going to the United States. However, there were too many aspects involved, and new situations kept emerging.
"Well... I'll go to the airport... to accompany you." Su Xiaoli wished he was by her side right now.
There was another knock on the door. "Young lady, the master wants you to see a guest."
Su Xiaoli forced herself to open her blurry eyes, "Grandpa is calling me, then... I'll hang up first..."
Infinite attachment.
Remaining lingering.
Gu Feihan's attachment to Su Xiaoli is no less than that to her, and he needs all his willpower to resist flying to see her right now.
Su Xiaoli hung up the phone, but she still felt dizzy and hot.
My heart was burning with anger, and I wished the whole world would disappear, leaving only me being tightly hugged by Gu Feihan.
She gulped down two large glasses of iced lemonade.
I went to the bathroom, held the cold water faucet in my hands, turned on the cold water, and splashed it on my face. I washed my face vigorously for a while, but I still didn't feel satisfied.
I simply got a big bowl of ice and soaked my whole face in it to calm myself down for a while, and only then did my mind regain some clarity and tranquility.
After keeping it in the ice for a while, he finally let out a sigh of relief.
The remaining dizziness was no longer enough to control her.
How could Lu Sinian say that such a strong liquor was "light alcohol"?
I didn't expect that I couldn't drink so much.
Su Xiaoli, who had finally finished putting on her light makeup, smiled secretly.
Thinking of the last time she drank red wine with Gu Feihan at home, she felt a little strange again.
I drank quite a bit that time, about 50% to 60% drunk. Champagne should have a lower alcohol content than red wine, but I only took a small sip this time, and I got so drunk...
Su Xiaoli was puzzled, and for some reason, she suddenly felt a little chilly.
She didn't stop, she walked towards Mr. Lu.
The person Mr. Lu wanted to introduce to Su Xiaoli was the old man of the Lin family.
The boss who dominates the world.
When the two old men were young, they had the experience of giving each other their backs several times.
Although they have different ideas and cannot work together, and their family business paths are different and have no intersection, it does not prevent the two old men from still having the true sense of loyalty in their hearts.
The moment Mr. Lin saw Su Xiaoli, he was stunned.
Time suddenly moved forward fifty years.
Fifty years ago, there was also an elegant and graceful woman in a purple cheongsam who approached him and smiled gently.
At that time, I didn't even dare to look up at her.
Mr. Lin was overwhelmed with emotions for a moment.
"Your new granddaughter looks so good... ahem... so nice." Grandpa Lin coughed lightly to clear his throat.
He almost showed his shy look again just now.
"Need I tell you? Xiao Li, call me Grandpa Lin." Old Master Lu glared at him with a smile.
It was incredible to hear such compliments coming from this old man.
"Hello, Grandpa Lin."
A blues dance music started.
"Can I ask you to dance with me?" Mr. Lin finally expressed his anxiety and long-cherished wish decades ago.
But things and people have changed.
Su Xiaoli accepted it with pleasure.
The dance floor was no longer as crowded as before, with only a few couples dancing.
"Young people love cha-cha and tango, or at least foxtrot," said Mr. Lin with a smile. "No one dances to a slow tempo with an old man. It's like taking a walk."
Su Xiaoli smiled, "What a coincidence, I only know waltz and blues."
Lu Sinian had just taught her this.
After the song was over, Mr. Lin finally got his long-cherished wish and his brows relaxed. "Little girl, I wish you peace."
Su Xiaoli had no idea what kind of weight these four words carried when they came out of his mouth.
She just took it as an ordinary blessing from the old man, smiled and nodded, "You too, it was a pleasant dance."
"Go ahead, go play with you young people." Old Master Lin let her go.
Su Xiaoli turned back and went to the corner to look for Lu Sinian.
But Lu Sinian came towards him stumbling, his feet unsteady and shaky.
He was drunk too? Su Xiaoli didn't have time to think about it and hurried forward to support him.
"Brother! Are you okay?"
Lu Sinian...is about to reach his limit.
The initial feeling since he drank the glass of champagne was not unfamiliar to him. After all, it happened frequently in the past year, especially at night.
Moreover, whenever she appeared in the dream, raging flames would ignite around her, and the two of them wished they could burn themselves to death in the fire.
Later, everyone in front of Lu Sinian began to shake, and there seemed to be a buzzing sound in his ears, until the world was spinning.
And now, the girl in my dream has come.
Is it finally here? He has been waiting for a long time today.
The person Mr. Lin recalled was Ms. Lin Yaru. The cause and effect may be revealed in the future.
