President's Brand

Chapter 17

Xi Mu got out of the car nervously, and cautiously followed him into the lobby with a stiff expression.

Come to the tenth floor, which is the main venue for tonight's banquet.

The hall on the second floor is quite grand, yet elegant.

Xi Mu looked at the familiar back who was still busy in the distance, with a smile on his face.After signaling to Qin Yao, she got up to look for Cheng An.

"Hey!"

Walking behind her like a prank, Xi Mu slapped her shoulder fiercely, causing Cheng An to jump up in fright.

"Mu Mu?" Cheng An turned his head to see her, his expression immediately filled with surprise, "Why are you here?"

Xi Mu smiled happily, and answered her with a smile, "You have been preparing for so long, how could I not come to join you?"

"That's about the same." Cheng An smiled with satisfaction, seeing that the evening dress on her was very beautiful, he couldn't help but look left and right.

Xi Mu looked into her eyes, cleared his throat intentionally, and said, "Boss Qin chose it!" He stared at her maliciously.

Hearing her words, Cheng An's face was unnatural for a while, and Weng replied angrily, "Oh!" After she finished speaking, she took Xi Mu to the side of the hall and let her have a look first, and then she went to decorate the rest of the work.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the reception officially began.

After the reception started, Xi Mu found out that it was originally a joint project between Qiao and Qin, but Ling's was added!After many guests heard the news, there was a lot of discussion, some people were happy, and some people started to plan ahead.

On the brightly lit podium, the humorous host adjusted the atmosphere of the venue.

The president of Qin's, Qin Yao's father is still overseas, so he was not present, and his only son was fully authorized to attend.

The person in charge of the Ling family is still the patriarch of the Ling family, Ling He's grandfather, Ling Xiaohai.

After the banquet started, everyone saw a strong old man with white hair coming, his face was full and radiant.Amidst the low voices of the crowd, he walked steadily, followed by his two grandsons, Ling Xuan and Ling He.

Standing in the corner, Xi Mu's expression darkened suddenly when he saw the healthy old man coming.

Long time no see, this majestic old man still gave her a fierce aura despite such a long distance.When I saw him, the short conversation two years ago seemed to ring in my ears again.

"Miss Xi, how much can you make me leave my grandson?"

"Ling He is a child of the Ling family, even if he doesn't want to, he can't change this fact!"

"It will be a matter of time before he returns to the Ling family. You should understand your identity, you are not worthy of him!"

That's what he said at the time. The strength and majesty in that tone hurt her self-esteem.

Sighing heavily, Xi Mu's heart was depressed, looking at Ling He who was at ease, she belatedly thought, it seems that her choice was right at the beginning, maybe she really didn't know him well enough!
Feeling his breathing getting more and more depressed, Xi Mu turned around to go out to get some air, but suddenly there was a burst of warm applause from the audience.In the hustle and bustle, she looked sideways, only to see the man walking majestically like a king.

Qiao Xiyao was wearing a black evening dress, and his obsidian eyes were shining brightly.Along the way, he nodded frequently, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was extremely cold.

When I came to the podium, the audience naturally fell silent.The spotlight shone on his face, portraying his handsome face even deeper.

Cheng An came quietly at this time, and when he came to Xi Mu's side, he stretched out his hand to pull her arm, and motioned her to look at the podium, "See, this is our wise and powerful president, isn't he so handsome?"

Cheng An looked obsessively at the man on the stage, his eyes were full of admiration, but Xi Mu beside him was stunned to see that handsome face.When she saw the darkness in his eyes, a burst of cold sweat broke out on her back, and she even felt the pain of that night with her body!

"I'm going out to get some air!" Xi Mu fled in a hurry, completely ignoring Cheng An's puzzled eyes, and hurried out of the hall.

After walking into the bathroom to calm down, Xi Mu stabilized his mood before going out.In the corridor, the voice from the loudspeaker could still be heard. She didn't want to see someone, so she slowed down and walked around.

Walking along the bathroom, there is a huge hollow screen at the corner, and Xi Mu saw how beautiful it was, so he walked over.

She was wearing a pink dress that dragged the floor, and she looked fresh and beautiful.A beautiful figure flashed in the eyes of Ling Xuan who came out to hunt for beauty, and his forward steps stopped.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the woman walking past. After seeing her face clearly, the evil mouth corners slowly evoked a smile.

Xi Mu went to the back of the screen, looked at the exquisite hollow carvings on it, and admired it very much.After enjoying it, she stepped out, but bumped into the warm arms of the man head-on.

Looking down at her surprised face, Ling Xuan smiled deeply, "It's really you, we meet again!"

After Xi Mu saw the man's face clearly, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.She pushed away a step, distanced herself from him, and wanted to leave, but he blocked her way.

"I don't know you, please get out of the way!" Xi Mu's face darkened, his tone was cold.

Ling Xuan was obviously in a good mood, and was not annoyed by her cold face at all, "Why don't you know each other?" He slowly lowered his head, deliberately approached her ear and said, "We met each other at Jingyi Club, and today we are at We are really destined to meet here.”

Feeling his pressing step by step, Xi Mu secretly felt cold, she stepped back, her tone was a little urgent, "I don't know what you are talking about, let me go!"

"Hehe..." Ling Xuan laughed softly, and an evil light flashed across his handsome face, "A beautiful woman looks so good even when she is angry!" While speaking, his expression changed, and he stretched out his hand to pull her body into his arms to trap her .

"Let go! Let go of me!"

Xi Mu was frightened by his sudden movement, and struggled away in his arms after being stunned for a few seconds.But her strength to struggle was weak, and she couldn't escape his potential at all.

The delicate body in her arms couldn't help twisting, and because of the friction of her body, the faint body fragrance on her body drifted away, which immediately made Ling Xuan's eyes darken, "Tell me, how much is it?"
