Two-way secret love with the e-sports god

Chapter 207 Banquet
What, do you feel bad?Afraid that I will bully your childhood sweetheart?

"You'll know when the interview in the design department is over. I won't tell you now." Lu Xiao concentrated on playing with her phone without looking up.

Forget it, let her make troubles, he believes that she is not a holy mother who remembers eating but not hitting.Qi Ran took the coat and walked in front of the woman, and gently pulled her up. Tonight is the engagement banquet for the mayor's daughter. Qi Ran received the invitation letter, and all the upper-class celebrities in Nancheng will attend. Lu Xiao, as the daughter-in-law of the Qi family, It is even more obligatory to go.

The car drove to the entrance of Shiting Hotel and stopped. This is the most luxurious star hotel in the city, and it is specially used to receive high-ranking VIPs and even political figures.Lu Xiao followed Qi Ran and stepped into the lobby. A waiter had already arrived and led them to the banquet scene.

Lu Xiao is not used to taking sightseeing elevators. In her previous life, she had a severe fear of heights. She had some psychological shadows about tall buildings since she was a child. She still remembers going out with friends when she was in college. I almost fainted, but thanks to my friend's quick response, Lu Xiao didn't make an embarrassment in public.But now when he suddenly walked into the sightseeing elevator, Lu Xiao became frightened after a long time, tightly pinching the floral flowers on the hem of the skirt, trying not to make himself look a little strange.

As the elevator went up, the scenery outside the transparent glass moved faster and faster. Lu Xiao tried her best to hold back the fear in her heart, but she was still slightly sweating from her forehead. Because of nervousness, her knuckles holding the hem of the skirt turned white.Damn it!Still sick!
Qi Ran felt that Lu Xiao seemed a little unusual. He was fine just now, but suddenly his face turned pale. He gently put his arm around Lu Xiao's shoulder and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something uncomfortable?"

He took out the silk handkerchief in his pocket, and gently wiped the thin sweat from Lu Xiao's forehead.

There seemed to be a reassuring power in Qi Ran's embrace, which made Lu Xiao escape from the fear for a while, and leaned into his embrace gently, explaining in a low voice, "I have a fear of heights, and I'm not used to taking sightseeing elevators. Maybe the floor is too high, so I'm not used to it."

That's right, why haven't I heard her say it before?
But fortunately, the engagement banquet is arranged on the 55th floor, which is not too high. With Qi Ran holding her, at least she will not feel the feeling of being alone and helpless at a high place, and after the banquet, Lu Xiao feels much better up.

The engagement banquet for the mayor's daughter is naturally a gathering of celebrities from the political and business circles. Lu Xiao looked at the middle-aged mayor in the center of the venue, who was chatting happily with several politicians. My lord is happy to have a son-in-law, and he looks very high-spirited.

When the mayor saw Qi Ran and Lu Xiao coming, he hurriedly came out of the crowd with a smile to say hello: "Mr. Qi is willing to welcome you, and Mr. Huang is welcome." Seeing Lu Xiao holding Qi Ran's arm Mayor Huang immediately understood, "This is Mr. Qi's wife, right? Hello Miss Tangzhen!"

Lu Xiao put on an elegant and intellectual smile, and greeted the mayor.

"Mr. Qi, it's really a great face for me to be willing to show you the honor in your busy schedule. I must drink a few more glasses later!" Mayor Huang attaches great importance to the relationship with the Qi family. A little magistrate like him with no background, In Nancheng, you still have to learn to rely on others, especially the face of the Qi family.

"It's serious, the mayor's daughter is engaged. It's reasonable for my wife and I to be happy. I haven't congratulated the mayor on your son-in-law. My wife and I have prepared a small gift. I hope you can accept it." Qi After Ran finished speaking, the waiter at the side handed over the gift list from the Qi family. Mayor Huang saw it, and was a little shocked in his always smiling eyes. The Qi family's financial strength is really not bragging!
After receiving the gift list and thanking him, the mayor stayed with him for a while, and then went to receive the next guests.

Lu Xiao accompanied Qi Ran to meet a few important politicians, and felt a little bored, so he secretly took the wine glass and sat in a secluded place to drink by himself.

While she was in a daze, a voice interrupted her thoughts.

"Excuse me, can I sit here?" A stylishly dressed woman walked up to Lu Xiao and asked softly.

Lu Xiao turned around and said no problem, and moved the chair away.

After the woman sat down, she chatted with Lu Xiao. For some reason, Lu Xiao always felt familiar with this woman, as if she had met her somewhere.

"You are Qi Ran's wife, right? I've seen your picture on the news before. Your appearance is the one that people can remember at first sight."

The woman smiled, showing a harmless look.

"Thank you, I don't know what to call you?" Lu Xiao also became curious about this familiar woman.

"My name is Li Mingwan. The mayor here has some old friends with me. The mayor's daughter is also my half-niece. How could I be ashamed not to attend when my niece is engaged? Do you think so?"

The woman's words are friendly, and she doesn't have the impetuous and arrogant temperament in the upper class, but Lu Xiao gradually has a good impression of her, thinking that this woman is very easy to get along with, and she is a kind person.

Lu Xiao handed a glass of champagne to the woman, and began to complain about the boredom of such high-class social occasions. It would be better to pass the time by doing something casual at home. The woman took a sip of the wine and agreed with a smile, "Yes, I do too. I'm too lazy to clink glasses of wine with those big shots, it's rare to have a chat with you, how about I tell you another secret?"

Lu Xiao is very curious, what's the secret?
Seeing the woman hooking her fingers at her, she couldn't help leaning closer, only to hear the other party's deliberately lowered voice:

"Do you still remember the old lady you met at the charity auction of the last art exhibition? Actually, I pretended to be one. I also have a foreign name called Srita. I disguised myself at the time to see who would be able to take pictures of her. Rock daisy. I know the man who took the picture, but I know he must not understand. I didn’t expect you to surprise me. You are the only buyer who knows the meaning behind the rock daisy. What a surprise , I didn't expect to meet you again today, Miss Tang."

After Lu Xiao heard this, she felt uncontrollable excitement and shock in her heart, oh my god, the idol is by my side!The interpretation she said at the time was actually heard by her idol!It's incredible to think about it!

Restraining his urge to hug his idol, Lu Xiao put down the wine glass in his hand, almost incoherent with excitement:
"Are you really Srita? You...didn't lie to me, did you?" The little girl was a little nervous.

The woman in front of her looked at her excited look, laughed non-stop, repeatedly assured that she was, Lu Xiao stepped forward and held her hand excitedly,
"Idol, I like you so much. I never expected to meet you at the auction that day. What a surprise! I am also a painter and I like your painting style very much. I plan to learn painting with you in the future." !"
