Run Away from My Honey a Thousand Times - Chapter 228

Chapter 228 A Masquerade
City F Commercial Reception.

“Young Master Leng, long time no see.”

“President Deng, you’re old and strong, your body is still so strong.”

Ye Yinuo held Leng Xiao’s hand and looked at the man beside her calmly. Leng Xiao looked rather dignified tonight, but she felt that she was not used to it no matter what.

Leng Xiao sensed her uneasiness and thoughtfully lowered his head and whispered to her, “Are you relatives? Your body is not feeling well. Do you want to …”

The crystal lamp just happened to reflect Leng Xiao’s bright smile, unlike the stiff smile on other people’s faces. Leng Xiao’s smile always gave people a sense of cynicism, but it was also very friendly.

Ye Yinuo was absent-minded for a moment. She sighed and shook her head, “I can’t smile.”

Leng Xiao was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and rubbed her velvet hair. He thought to himself that his Abao was really frank and straightforward. “It doesn’t matter. You don’t know those people. It’s too fake to smile at them.”

Ye Yinuo, “…” Then why are you smiling so brilliantly?

Seeing her dazed appearance, Leng Xiao looked at the itch in his heart and couldn’t help but lower his head, rubbing against her cheek. “Abao, I like your dazed appearance the most. It’s really cute.”

Ye Yinuo was stunned. If it was any other woman, she would definitely blush. However, she had already gotten used to Leng Xiao’s personality. She just felt that this idiot was becoming more and more hooligan.

“I’m going to the bathroom.” Ye Yinuo couldn’t stand the gossiping gazes from the surroundings and gave an excuse to leave Leng Xiao.

The Leng Clan was the boss of F City. Although the fourth young master of the Leng Clan had never participated in the business of the Leng Clan, everyone in the circle knew that this Leng Clan was different from other wealthy clans. They were the weirdest of the wealthy clans. The internal strife of other clans would not occur in their Leng Clan. Furthermore, it was said that the empress dowager of the Leng Clan loved this youngest son the most.

Most importantly, Leng Xiao and Ling Yue of Ling Tian International were very close brothers, so tonight’s banquet was much livelier because of Leng Xiao’s unexpected arrival.

“Xiao’er, what have you been busy with these past few years? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen anyone in the industry.” An old uncle smiled and toasted him.

“Did you participate in Ling Tian International’s business, so you have no time to care about Leng shi’s business?”

Leng Xiao only smiled at him, then turned around to look in the direction of the entrance. “Uncle Zhang, we agreed not to talk about business tonight.” His words paused, and his face was still smiling brightly. “However, if you want to know something, why don’t you ask him directly?”

Uncle Zhang was stunned for a moment. He turned around and looked in his direction. He was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes narrowed into a straight line with laughter.

At this moment, a pair of wall people slowly walked into the entrance.

The woman was elegant and generous. She smiled faintly. She wore a luxurious dress, a long purple dress, black hair on her shoulders, and a diamond necklace on her chest. It made her white and tender skin look even more attractive.

The man was dressed in an ink-blue suit, a white T-shirt, and a dark purple tie. His entire body was indifferent, and his figure was extremely aloof and arrogant.

As soon as the two of them stepped into the venue, they immediately attracted everyone’s attention. Everyone couldn’t help but look at them. With a single glance, the smile on their faces became even brighter.

“President Ling, it’s my honor.” The host of this banquet greeted him with an excited smile.

Ling Yue reached out and shook his opponent’s hand. There wasn’t much expression on his face, he only nodded politely to his opponent.

“I’m glad to be able to attend tonight’s banquet.” His voice was as cold as ever.

The other party clearly understood Ling Yue’s indifferent personality and didn’t care too much about it.

It only took three years for Lingtian International to reach this level. This man had enough capital to clamor, and their world had always been dominated by the strong.

“Miss Shen, it’s nice to meet you. Last time I was idle with your father, he said that you were his proud daughter. Miss Shen is not only knowledgeable, but also beautiful.”

Compared to Ling Yue’s cold expression, Shen Jingxue smiled affectionately, giving people the feeling of spring blooming.

“Uncle Zhang, this is too much of a compliment.” Shen Jingxue smiled shyly.

The other party secretly sized up the two people in front of him. He saw Ling Yue accidentally let go of Shen Jingxue. His gaze looked around strangely, as if he was absent-minded. He guessed that this man was indeed like the rumors outside, never taking women to heart.

However, Shen Jingxue was his only female companion for so many years, so he thought that Miss Shen must have a special status in his heart.

“Miss Shen and Nephew Ling can go together when the party starts …” Originally, the other party wanted to talk to Ling Yue, but unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, Ling Yue left Shen Jingxue and headed in the same direction.

This made Shen Jingxue embarrassed for a long time. She watched Ling Yue slowly walk towards Leng Xiao. The man did not care about her at all. When the owner of the banquet saw this, he could not help but say, “Looks like Miss Shen will be fine as long as she stays at home and becomes Young Lady Lings. Nephew Ling Shi will take care of her business.”

Shen Jingxue smiled and nodded. Everyone felt that Ling Yue treated her special. Only she knew that she was just a foil when she came over tonight.

When she thought of Ling Yue’s nervous expression when he received the notice at noon, she couldn’t help but feel bitter. It was precisely because that woman might appear here that he pushed aside the important meeting and deliberately brought her to this insignificant reception.

“Did you see her?” Ling Yue asked directly when he saw Leng Xiao.

Leng Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed, “No wonder you attended such a boring reception. So you were summoned by that troublesome spirit.”

Ling Yue knitted his eyebrows and did not say anything. He turned around and looked around. His expression was a little grave as he said, “Last time, she destroyed the entire power system of the Shen Clan’s old master’s birthday party and caused all the lights in the Shen Clan to explode. She simply wanted to test the water. This time, she came for her companion and sent someone to keep an eye on her.”

Leng Xiao touched him with his elbow and smiled sinisterly, “As expected of your woman. I heard that she has a deep relationship with her companion called Ye Yinuo. Maybe she will set fire to the entire courtyard tonight. Fortunately, I didn’t own this hotel.”

When Ling Yue heard the name Ye Yinuo, his face turned black. Leng Xiao felt that his entire body was filled with killing intent and naturally did not dare to provoke him. He answered embarrassedly and sent more men.

However, he was very curious about one question. “Right, what does that Ye Yinuo look like? Let me see that adulterer.”

At this moment, the reception officially began, and the lights gradually dimmed down. The light beam was gently spinning, and the light music was slowly sounding.

The host of the banquet began to dance for the first time, and the guests couldn’t help but join. The theme of the banquet was a mask dance. Everyone wore exquisite masks. The golden mask made everything mysterious.

Ling Yue’s eyebrows furrowed even deeper as he saw the beautiful waltz dance with the man and woman at this dance filled with laughter, and the figures intertwined, and the skirts of the women fluttered one after the other, causing Ling Yue’s eyebrows to furrow even deeper.

Leng Xiao saw the nervousness on his face and patted his shoulder. “Although Ye Youran is bold, there is no need for her to make a big fuss about the party. Perhaps she is just bored to come over and walk around. Nothing will happen.”

“I’m not worried that something big will happen to her.” Ling Yue’s gaze was still vigilant as he looked around. His cold voice was calm and solemn. “I only want her to be fine.”

Leng Xiao was stunned. This was too defensive. How could that troublesome spirit of yours, who was shocking to the heavens, have an accident? If she didn’t harm others, it would already be Amitabha.

“What skill does Ye Youran have? To put it bluntly, besides you, not a single one of you can beat her. If you compare your spear skills with hers, it might be better than yours.”

Leng Xiao’s gaze also turned around, and he whispered to himself, “Where’s my Po?” His family’s Po wasn’t as tough as Ye Youran’s, so he had to protect him properly.

Leng Xiao turned his eyes to look at a familiar figure. He was about to introduce Ling Yue to the wife he had picked up, but he didn’t expect Ling Yue to take a step and walk straight towards the dance.

“Beauty, I wonder if I’m honored to dance with you.”

A man in a silver-gray military uniform, black leather boots, and white gloves on both hands. Although he was only about 1.7 meters tall, he wore a golden feather mask. His gentlemanly voice was elegant and playful. He looked like a noble young master, and the corners of his lips were filled with a pleasant smile.

The other party was fascinated by his temperament. He smiled lightly and nodded. The man’s smile became even more brilliant. He stretched out his hand and pulled the beauty into the dance floor. The two of them danced.

At this moment, a pair of deep blue eyes stared in their direction.

On the side, Shen Jingxue looked at the man beside her doubtfully. Just as she was about to ask, Ling Yue pulled her right hand into the dance floor. Shen Jingxue was pleasantly surprised and did not think too much. She immediately followed his footsteps.

Ling Yue did not wear a mask. His appearance and temperament had an aura that could not be ignored. When he stepped onto the dance floor, the dancers beside him consciously gave way to him.

Ling Yue held Shen Jingxue in his arms. The two of them had cooperated for many years to attend the cocktail reception. They were handsome and beautiful, and they danced exceptionally well. The two of them were very close, and Shen Jingxue could clearly smell the unique aura of the sea on his body, bringing with it a bit of coolness.

“Dog man and woman!” Under the envy of everyone, only one person could not help but curse in his heart.

“Damn it, in broad daylight, you actually dare to play around with other women in front of me! You’re so shameless!” At this moment, someone on the dance floor was being carelessly jealous.

“Handsome, what did you say?” The beauty who was dancing with someone in the night heard him whisper and looked at his half-exposed white face. Her heart couldn’t help but beat faster.

Ye Youran purposely said in a hoarse voice, changing into a gentle and elegant manner, teasing, “Nothing. I just feel that Miss’s eyes are really charming.”

As long as it was a woman, she would like to be praised by others, especially this’seemingly ‘very temperamental man in front of her.

The other party blushed and lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment.

Ye Youran was about to shamelessly continue teasing the other party, but when she raised her eyes and met a pair of azure eyes, her heart trembled for a moment.

F*ck! This bastard recognized him!

Before she could regain her senses, Ye Youran’s body was suddenly pulled by someone. The beauty in front of her was also shocked. She spun out straight. Neither of them had regained their senses yet, and Ye Youran had already fallen into the man’s embrace.
