Rebirth: The Fake Young Lady Is A Real Young Lady Novel - Chapter 342

342 The Invitation

“I’m sorry, we…” Just by looking at Xia Huang’s expression, she knew that her intention had not been to apologize. Shen Xi wanted to reject her.

“Go, go, go, let’s go.” Zhao Yuan hastily said, pulling Shen Xi back as she was about to refuse.

Zhao Yuan had heard that the old chief’s birthday banquet was very lively. Almost half of the famous and influential people in the capital would attend, so she, too, wanted to go and experience it.

“That’s good. I’ll get someone to prepare gowns for you. It’ll be quick.” Xia Huang said, not giving Shen Xi a chance for rejection.

!!
Shen Xi sighed to herself. She did not know if her maternal and paternal grandfathers would be present at the old chief’s birthday banquet. If they were, wouldn’t she be immediately recognized?

Shen Xi felt her head hurting and was extremely vexed. However, if she were to let Zhao Yuan go to the birthday banquet alone, Shen Xi would not be at ease. In the end, Shen Xi chose a compromise.

Zhao Yuan grabbed Shen Xi’s face and looked it up and down. Then, she asked in horror, “Xi, why did you do this to yourself? It’s not like you.”

Shen Xi spread out her arms and spun in front of Zhao Yuan, asking, “Don’t I look good?”

Zhao Yuan’s brows were tightly furrowed. “It’s not that you don’t look good. I just feel that it’s not like you; not as pretty.”

Shen Xi smiled and said, “Maybe I’ll look different after putting on makeup. You’re the type that looks good with makeup, I’m the type that doesn’t look good with makeup.”

Zhao Yuan glared at Shen Xi. “You’re trying to fool me. It’s not like I haven’t seen you in makeup. Sigh, whatever you want, as long as you’re happy.”

At the side, Xia Huang was also baffled. Which young lady did not rack her brains and dress up exquisitely to attend the Guan family’s birthday banquet? This Shen Xi was different.

Perhaps Shen Xi was a girl from a small place and did not know what kind of family the Guan family was. Otherwise, she would not be so reckless.

Shen Xi sent Guan Lei a text to ask him to have a video call later that night. Bored, Guan Lei threw his phone on the bed and rested his head on his arms, staring at the ceiling.

Suddenly, the corner of Guan Lei’s mouth curved up evilly again.

Li Zhe, who didn’t know what Meng Yu was doing, pressed his ear to the wall, trying to listen to the movements in the adjacent room. However, the adjacent room was silent and not a sound could be heard.

Li Zhe knew that he had gone a little too far that day and might have frightened Meng Yu. Forget it, he would go and apologize.

Li Zhe practiced his apologetic expression several times in front of the mirror before he knocked on Meng Yu’s door.

Meng Yu had just opened the door when Li Zhe, as though afraid that Meng Yu would refuse to let him enter, snuck into the room by going under Meng Yu’s arm. He sat on the chair with a sincere expression before smiling at Meng Yu.

Meng Yu sighed helplessly. He really didn’t know what to do with this benefactor who had pulled him back from the depths of hell.

Li Zhe hesitated for a long while, then looked cautiously at Meng Yu, saying, “I went overboard this afternoon. Don’t be angry with me.”

Meng Yu was observing the surroundings of Guan Lei’s room with binoculars, and said indifferently, “I’m not angry with you. I just think that if you really have needs, I can help you make arrangements. However, I don’t want to be one of your many bed partners.”

Li Zhe hadn’t expected that Meng Yu would actually have such a misconception, and hurriedly explained, “I didn’t want to…”

Li Zhe’s explanation was interrupted by a knock on the door.

Meng Yu put down the binoculars in his hand and went to open the door, but he was immediately frightened by the beautiful scenery at the door.

Li Zhe saw Meng Yu standing at the door in a daze and asked, puzzled, “What are you doing? Who is it?”

In the end, before Li Zhe could reach the door, he saw a group of sexily dressed women pouring into the room, which instantly became packed.

Meng Yu’s gaze passed over those people and looked straight into Li Zhe’s slightly confused eyes.

Meng Yu sighed lightly. It seemed that Li Zhe had really been holding it in for too long. However, he had not expected that Li Zhe would actually invite these people to his room. This made him a little dissatisfied.

“Director Li, please go ahead. I’ll be back in a while,” Meng Yu said loudly.

Li Zhe watched helplessly as Meng Yu closed the door and left. He was completely dumbfounded, and then anger filled his heart.

Great, Meng Yu. It was fine if he didn’t like him, but he also found such a group of women to disgust him.

Li Zhe couldn’t understand why Meng Yu had pushed him out so easily. Did he not have any place in his heart at all?

The bikini-clad women surrounded Li Zhe and kept teasing him. Some of them even had their hands down his pants.
