Jiang Yifan wanted to comfort Ming Xiaoxiao, but when he turned his head, he saw that Ming Xiaoxiao's eyes were red and tears were welling up in them, and he felt heartbroken.
"No wonder Shen Xinghe was so sarcastic. He must have known Xie Li for a long time, and Xie Li might even have been spreading rumors about you behind your back..."
"Xiaoxiao, he did it on purpose! We've been tricked!" He felt a pang of anger in his chest just thinking about how he had been made a fool of like a monkey.
Ming Xiaoxiao seemed unable to bear it any longer and turned and ran away.

On the other side.
She hesitated for a moment when she received Shen Xinghe's invitation.
She was slightly disappointed not to see Xie Lin.
Shen Xinghe smiled warmly and naturally, but inwardly he was anxious. Why hadn't she agreed yet?
The thought that Xie Li might refuse made him want to vomit blood. This wouldn't do. He had gone through so much trouble to get in here, wasn't it all to cultivate a brother-sister relationship?
Shen Xinghe hesitated for a moment, then clasped his hands together and said, "Then, I'm asking you?"
He felt inexplicably embarrassed when he did this, but Xie Li seemed to like it and nodded in agreement.
Shen Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say, "Let's go quickly," when he saw Xie Li's gaze pass over him and land behind him. Shen Xinghe turned around abruptly and saw Xie Lin appear behind him at some point.
Shen Xinghe: "..."
Jiang Baili's fingers nervously tightened as soon as she saw Xie Li.
Are Jiang Yifan and Ming Xiaoxiao both useless? How could they have managed to get Xie Li to come here?
However, she quickly put on a smile and went up to greet him, "Xie Li, you're here! By the way, I don't know if you remember, this is..."
She stood next to Xie Lin, her attitude revealing intimacy, seemingly introducing Xie Li, but in reality harboring ill intentions.
Although she had just been rebuffed by Xie Lin, it didn't matter; she knew Xie Lin would definitely want to save face.
Deep down, she probably still hates Xie Li to a certain extent.
As the eldest grandson of the prestigious Xie family, he was expelled from the family and lost his life of luxury just because of a cousin. One can imagine how resentful he felt.
In addition, Ding Huizhu went a bit crazy during the years she lost her child, relentlessly pursuing Xie Lin and the eldest branch of the Xie family, making Xie Yunqiu laugh at her countless times.
All this hatred stemmed from Xie Li getting lost.
She had a good plan in mind, and the smile on her lips became even more pronounced.
"Brother Lin," Xie Li suddenly spoke, his eyes filled with warmth, "It's been a long time."
Xie Lin's stiffness finally relaxed completely, and he smiled and stepped forward to give Xie Li a hug. "Li Li, welcome home."
Jiang Baili's smile froze completely.
The production team didn't expect there would be a family reunion segment, but they were overjoyed to see Xie Lin's sister's good looks. The camera crew, in particular, captured a scene that looked like a wealthy family sibling relationship.
The comments section went wild: "OMG, this girl is sooooo beautiful!"
"Good grades and good looks, my mom asked me why I was kneeling to watch the live stream..."
The live broadcast of these formal programs has no filters whatsoever. Celebrities can pull it off, but ordinary people can't.
Xie Li looked so good on camera, creating a stark contrast with Jiang Baili standing next to her.
Netizens who previously thought their cousin had a great temperament suddenly lost interest.
It's not entirely Jiang Baili's fault. If she were to appear on camera alone, she would indeed look quite good. After all, she's a pampered young lady who grew up in luxury, and her expensive skincare products aren't just for show.
