The originally bustling hall gradually became quiet with the arrival of several people.
Despite being stared at by dozens of eyes, Ling Yan didn't feel uncomfortable at all. She held her swan neck high and walked into the crowd gracefully and confidently, with a gentle and appropriate smile on her face. "Hello, my name is Ling Yan, and I'm A Feng's friend."
Ah Feng...
Hearing her address Xu Yanfeng so intimately, everyone had many guesses. They just felt that Ling Yan had an extraordinary temperament, not raised in an ordinary family. At first glance, it was obvious that she came from a wealthy family, comparable to Xu Yanfeng's.
So did several other boys.
They didn't even bother introducing themselves, and went to the side hall as if they were at home.
Not finding Xu Yanfeng in the side hall, Tang Yizhou frowned and shouted, "Where are the two Xu? We've been here for quite some time, and he hasn't even shown his face. Do you think this is acceptable?"
Tang Yizhuo came out from the side hall, sat down on the sofa and called Xu Yanfeng.
As soon as the call was connected, he acted like a big shot and started to scold in a pretentious tone: "How can you treat guests like that? You're hiding away to recuperate after your childbirth. Come quickly, I've come a long way..." The call was cut off. Tang Yizhou said "Hey" and raised the phone to show Fu Li next to him, "He hung up on me."
Fu Li was not surprised: "You are such a bad mouth, who else should I hang up on if not you?"
Everyone present heard the phone call Tang Yizhou made, and became more certain that he and Xu Yanfeng had a close relationship, otherwise they wouldn't be so bold as to joke around.
When the butler heard that a distinguished guest was visiting, he personally brewed a few cups of tea and brought them over, and casually asked everyone if they wanted some.
Everyone shook their heads, indicating that there were enough drinks on the table.
Xia Xi waved her hand: "Give me a cup."
The housekeeper looked at her, nodded slightly, went to the tea room, brewed a cup and brought it to her.
Ling Yan found a place to sit down, with her knees together and her calves slightly tilted to one side. She held a teacup in one hand and a tea tray in the other, with a ladylike posture. She glanced at Xia Xi vaguely. He didn't expect to see her here, and she had the nerve to appear in Xu Yanfeng's sight.
It doesn’t matter if your confession is rejected. What matters is that the person you are confessing to never goes.
If it were someone else, they would have been embarrassed to death, but Xia Xi had a strong mental state and was able to come to Xu Yanfeng's private villa as if nothing had happened, sitting among the crowd and chatting and laughing.
Lingyan lowered her eyes, gently blew on a tea leaf floating in the cup, and took a sip.
She came here today just to find out who Xu Yanfeng likes - the girl who gave him roses on New Year's Eve definitely occupies a certain position in his heart. Even if he doesn't like her, he has a good impression of her.
That is her real enemy. Xia Xi is nothing but cannon fodder at best.
Normally, she didn't have the chance to meet Xu Yanfeng alone. Every time she saw him, it was under the pretext of a party with Tang Yizhou and others present. Xu Yanfeng was a tight-lipped person, so no useful information could be pried out from daily chats. She could only hope for occasions like today.
The dinner party, led by Xu Yanfeng, was attended by members of the student union and their friends, and that girl was definitely among them. Even if Xu Yanfeng didn't say anything, it would reveal the flaw.
Who is it?
Ling Yan showed no emotion on the surface, but she had actually been observing for several rounds. She didn't see any other girl who was special except Xia Xi, who was outstanding in appearance. However, Xia Xi was excluded by her from the beginning.
There was a sudden commotion among the crowd, and everyone's eyes were cast in the same direction.
Ling Yan looked back with a sense of realization. It was Xu Yanfeng coming down from the stairs. He was dressed in a rare home outfit, but he was still so handsome that he could walk on the red carpet.
His white cotton and linen shirt, a wrinkle-prone material, was ironed perfectly. It was slightly loose, giving it a crisp, defined look, held together by his figure. The only button on his chest, near the collar, was undone; the rest were buttoned tightly. His trousers were also white, wrinkling at the instep. He wore slippers, and his whole demeanor was casual and laid-back, less distant than usual.
It made many girls at the scene's heart flutter.
He had probably been sleeping before, and when he spoke, his voice was a little hoarse: "Everyone, don't be shy, have fun."
One boy quickly responded, "Senior, can we play in the swimming pool?"
Xu Yanfeng nodded in agreement: "Whatever you want."
"Great! I'll go swim a couple of laps later."
"I want to go too. Shall we have a competition?"
"Let's compete! The loser will bark like a dog."
"I'm afraid of you."
Amidst the clamor, Xu Yanfeng casually glanced at the people present. His gaze lingered on Xia Xi for a few seconds before he casually looked away. He sat down next to Fu Li and asked, "Why are you here?"
Fu Li raised his chin and pointed at Tang Yizhou: "Ask him."
Tang Yizhou calmly picked up a bunch of grapes and popped one into his mouth. "You're a frigid person who rarely throws a party. Of course I have to join in the fun."
Xu Yanfeng's face darkened when he heard the description "sexual apathy".
There were outsiders present, so Tang Yizhuo didn't dare to go too far. He raised his hands in a gesture of surrender and stopped there.
Xu Yanfeng chatted with his friend for a while, then got up and went to the wine cellar to pick out some wine. Since they were all adults, it was okay to have a few drinks. Besides, it was Sunday tomorrow, so he didn't have classes, so it wouldn't delay anything.
Ever since Xu Yanfeng appeared, Xia Xi's eyes followed him closely. Even after he left, she stared at the direction he left so that she could notice him the moment he came.
Wu Qinglu pushed her elbow and said, "Why don't you go say hello to Xu Yanfeng? Aren't you here just for him? You should show off in front of him more when you're dressed so beautifully."
