Chapter 464: Chapter 464-understanding and reasonable
Lin Miao thought that the real master of the Li family, uncle li, and aunt Fang, hadn’t arrived yet. They weren’t so easy to please. They wouldn’t like a small gift or a piece of candy.
However, Lin Miao saw the happy smile on Li Jingjing’s face. It was a smile as bright as the sun, which Lin Miao rarely had the chance to see. She was jealous.
This B * tch is so pretentious! She actually used these little tricks to make the old man happy. She was also deliberately showing off in front of Li Jingjing. What a scheming, bad woman!
A figure flashed past outside the door. Lin Miao hurried to the door and greeted her politely,”
“Uncle li, aunt Fang!”
“Hey, Miaomiao, let’s go in and have some tea,”
Li Jingjing’s father nodded, and aunt Fang asked Lin Miao to have some tea.
As soon as they entered the living room, Li Jingjing’s father and aunt Fang were both stunned.
They vaguely knew that Li Jingjing was in contact with other women outside, but they didn’t pay attention to it and didn’t take it seriously. They thought it was a rumor that she was putting on an act with other women in the business world.
He didn’t expect that Li Jingjing would bring a woman home without even informing him in advance.
When Li Jingjing saw her father and stepmother enter, she immediately turned around and pulled Chi yaoxi over. She greeted them politely.
“Dad, aunt Fang, this is Chi Luoxi. We just arrived.”
The little fellow was obviously dissatisfied with this form of address. He pulled Chi Luoxi’s hand and introduced her again,”
......
“Grandpa, grandma, this is my mommy.”
“Hello, uncle, Auntie!”
Chi Luoxi greeted him courteously and took out the gift she had prepared from her bag.
“It’s my first time here, so I brought a gift for Uncle and Auntie. I hope you like it. ”
Chi luexi presented the authentic silk scarves from Guizhou Maotai and Hangzhou. The two elders reached out to receive them, not saying much.
As the saying goes, don’t hit a smiling person, and don’t hit a gift-giver.
Judging from the gifts, this woman was quite reasonable.
Li Jingjing’s father nodded and didn’t say anything. However, Fang Ling’s expression had clearly darkened.
She had promised Lin Miao that she would try her best to match the two of them at Li Jingjing’s birthday banquet today. She would let these two young childhood sweethearts finally get together.
He didn’t expect Li Jingjing to bring a woman back for her birthday.
And Li Jingjing’s son, little Chenchen, was affectionately calling this woman ‘mommy’.
Fang Ling had no idea what was going on.
No wonder Li Jingjing was so cold and indifferent to Lin Miao. It turned out that she already had a woman outside.
Fang Ling’s eyes quickly swept over Chi Luoxi. It was obvious that this woman was not the same type as Lin Miao. She could tell from her dress and the way she handled things. She seemed to be doing her job strictly.
It was the most basic etiquette to bring a gift for the old man on his first visit.
But looking at this woman’s attitude, she was gentle and polite, obviously not good at pleasing others.
Fang Ling’s wish was to like a daughter-in-law like Lin Miao. Only a daughter-in-law like this would be of one heart with her and would also please her at the right time.
Fang Ling had made up her mind. She supported Lin Miao.
Moreover, in Fang Ling’s heart, Lin Miao was an innocent and kind girl who didn’t have any schemes. Her love for Li Jingjing had been sincere since she was young.
If the two families were to be connected by marriage, it would be a matter of course.
While no one was paying attention, Fang Ling sized up Chi Luoxi from the side.
She had heard from Lin Miao that Li Jingjing had a woman outside and was in close contact with her. Perhaps she was just putting on an act and was a star actress.
So it was her, Chi Luoxi.
What made Fang Ling even more curious was that little Chenchen was holding her hand and was very intimate with her. He even introduced her as his mommy.
Fang Ling’s heart was beating like a drum. She understood Li Jingjing’s personality. Whether she could make Lin Miao and Li Jingjing get together tonight was now even more difficult.
However, Fang Ling couldn’t say much in front of Li Jingjing. She smiled and said,”
“It’s so lively tonight. Come, come, let’s all sit together.”
Lin Miao stood by Fang Ling’s side at the right time and held her arm, looking very intimate.
The banquet was about to begin, and great-grandfather sat in the innermost seat.
Next to him was little Chenchen. He took the initiative to sit next to his great-grandfather and said that he would take some food to take care of his great-grandfather. He was even praised by everyone.
Chi yaoxi sat on the other side of the little guy while Li Jingjing sat close to her.
Lin Miao had always felt indignant. Other people didn’t know Chi Luoxi’s background, but she did.
She sat on the other side of Li Jingjing without fear.
When the food was served, the eldest great-grandfather said,”
“Today is a good day. It’s my grandson Li Jingjing’s birthday, and it’s her 30th birthday. There’s a saying in the ancient times that people stand at 30. My grandson has already made a name for himself in his career and he should be proud of it. Let’s have a toast to Li Jingjing’s Happy Birthday!”
Under grandfather’s lead, everyone drank three glasses in a row. This was the most basic etiquette in drinking.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone ate and toasted each other.
Chi leixi was relatively quiet, silent, and low-key.
She had come to celebrate Li Jingjing’s birthday and had no intention of getting involved in other disputes.
But it was obvious that Lin Miao didn’t think that way.
She wanted to compete at tonight’s dinner to determine her status.
After three rounds of drinks, Lin Miao stood up at the table. She raised her glass and said to Li Jingjing,”
“Brother Yingluo, today is your 30th birthday. Birthdays are the most important, so I wish you a Happy Birthday and all the best! I’ll do it!”
Li Jingjing didn’t expect Lin Miao to come and toast her so forthrightly after she had only taken a few bites of the food.
He also picked up his glass and drank it in one gulp. He nodded and revealed a rare smile on his face.
“Thank you for your blessings, sister Lin Miao. I wish you a happy life!”
Lin Miao’s sister? Lin Miao was a little unwilling to be called that.
Although she usually liked to call Li Jingjing brother Jingjing, didn’t all the love dramas in Korea address her that way?
However, it was rare to hear Li Jingjing call her sister Lin Miao.
Lin Miao couldn’t think too much at the moment. She tried her best to keep herself rational, not letting her emotions control her words and actions.
In any case, his plans had been completely disrupted by this damned woman, Chi Luoxi. If she had not come, he would not have acted like this.
“Brother Wanwan, these are all your favorite dishes. I specially watched the kitchen and made them. Try them and see if they’re to your liking.”
Lin Miao took credit for her work while politely putting food into Li Jingjing’s bowl with the serving chopsticks.
“I’m alright, thank you. ”
Although it was a birthday dinner, not many people were invited. Only Li Jingjing’s parents and grandfather were present. When no one spoke, the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Chi Luoxi only lowered her head and did not say much.
