With a 'pop' sound, Xu He slapped Xu Li on the face with a sullen face.

"Uncle, are you going to hit me?"

Xu Li looked at Xu He in disbelief. She had never been slapped by anyone since she was a child. But this first slap came from her uncle.

"Shouldn't I hit you? See what you're causing trouble?"

Xu He seemed furious, "Tonight is so important to the Xu family, but you screwed it up for me. Can I silence the media and the mouths of so many guests?"

He spent nearly a month planning this dinner, but Xu Li messed it up.

"I didn't ask you to come, why did you come uninvited?"

"Uncle, I also want to come over and help you greet the guests, but I'm afraid you won't be able to do it."

Xu Li covered her cheek, feeling aggrieved.

"What are you thinking about? Do you still want to lie to me?"

Xu He glared at Xu Li coldly, "I don't care who you want to deal with tonight, but you ruined my good deeds, and I have to settle this debt with you."

"I didn't want to deal with anyone, and I don't know why the earrings disappeared. You can't blame me for this."

Xu Li quibbled, thinking that if she didn't admit it, Xu He couldn't do anything to her.

"Cousin, what you said is strange."

Xu Hong said, "I only focused on greeting my group of sisters tonight, and I didn't even see you in person. How could your earrings find their way to me out of nowhere?"

"How do I know?"

Xu Li was determined not to let go. She hooked the earrings onto Lin Xiaoxiao's belt in the bathroom. There could be no surveillance there.

‘Didi’

The security guard sent a video to Xu He, and he directly projected it on the wall. He clearly saw that Lin Xiaoxiao hooked the earring onto Xu Hong's body.

Xu Li's face turned ugly instantly. She didn't expect that the scene would be captured by the surveillance cameras at the scene.

Damn Lin Xiaoxiao, he would actually handle earrings like this.

"Cousin, when I was chatting with my sisters, I saw you sitting with this woman from a distance. So you deliberately hooked the earrings onto her belt, right?"

Xu Hong is not a fool. "Look at her expression when she found the earrings. She was obviously unaware. It was only when I happened to walk by her that she hooked the earrings onto my skirt."

"I don't."

Xu Li denied it bravely, "She and I just said a few words and then walked away. Why would I deliberately hook such expensive earrings into her belt?"

"She is Wu Qi's female companion."

Xu He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Xu Li, "You are here tonight because of Wu Qi, right? After all, you are both employees of the Nie Group, and he is so outstanding, so it is inevitable that you like him.

You want to use the earrings to frame his female companion and make her embarrassed in public. Do you think that doing this will cause them to have conflicts, and you will take advantage of it? "

"I, I didn't."

Xu Li didn't expect that Xu He would guess it right, so she stammered and denied it.

She simply wanted to make Lin Xiaoxiao look embarrassed, so how could she take advantage of it? Wu Qi ignored her at all.

"You bitch, for the sake of your little love, you ruined the dinner I had been preparing for a long time."

Xu He raised his hand to slap Xu Li again. She was so frightened that she squatted on the ground holding her head and said, "Uncle, don't hit me."

"Don't hit you? How will I calculate my loss tonight? How will I get rid of my anger? Fortunately, I have been taking care of the Xu family so that you and your family can enjoy the food and drink spicy food. Get the hell out of here from now on."

Xu He is a businessman, and his interests are damaged, so he will naturally be angry.

"I...I can steal Nie's secrets and give them to you."

Xu Li risked her life. If Xu He drew a clear line with the Xu family, where would she have the chance to enter these high-end banquets?

"oh?"

The expression on Xu He's face softened a little, and he looked at Xu Li, "In that case, go and steal the bids from Nie and Xu for the same piece of land. I will consider you to have made up for it."

"good."

In order for Xu Li to continue to live the same glamorous and rich life as Xu Hong, she didn't care whether this behavior was a crime.

For her, living an ordinary life was more uncomfortable than taking her life.

BBQ restaurant

Lin Xiaoxiao saw that almost every table's guests had several kinds of desserts. It seemed that Tang Jun had not lied to her.

The three of them entered the private room and sat down, and the waiter quickly brought the ingredients.

"Try these new products. Our store is always developing new dishes and strives to cater to more customers' preferences."

Tang Jun took matters into his own hands and placed the ingredients on the baking sheet one after another.

"I'll just come."

Lin Xiaoxiao picked up the tongs and turned over the ingredients on the baking sheet.

"Wu Qi, why are you so silent?"

Tang Jun looked at Wu Qishang, "What are you thinking about?"

"No."

Wu Qi denied it.

"You have worries written all over your face, why do you still say you don't have any?"

Tang Jun poured wine for Wu Qi, "Just call a driver when you get back."

Wu Qi did not refuse. He picked up the cup and drank it in one breath. He was indeed worried.

What happened tonight made him realize that although Lin Xiaoxiao and Zhao Meng had different personalities, they were both willing to digest certain things by themselves. This made him feel that he was dispensable to them.

"Don't drink too much."

Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at Wu Qi, but did not reach out to stop him from drinking.

"Don't worry, I will control the amount."

Tang Jun smiled and gave Wu Qi another half glass of red wine.

Lin Xiaoxiao handed the baked ingredients to the two men while listening to them talk about things in college.

She was quite envious, but she couldn't say anything. After all, she had never had such an experience.

The three of them chatted while eating, and finally finished all the ingredients.

Wu Qi drank more than half the bottle of red wine, which was his limit. Tang Jun obviously knew him well and stopped pouring wine into his glass.

"It's getting late, we have to go back."

Lin Xiaoxiao held Wu Qi's arm and looked at Tang Jun, "Thank you for inviting us to dinner."

"polite."

Tang Jun smiled and said, "The driver has already called you and is waiting outside."

"Gone."

Wu Qi was not drunk, but after all, he was drunk and staggered a little.

Lin Xiaoxiao supported Wu Qi and said, "Walk slower and pay attention to the stairs."

Tang Jun sent the two people to the door, waited for them to get in the car, and said to the driver, "Send this lady home first."

"No, let's see Wu Qi off first. I'm not worried about him being like this. I'll take a taxi back after he settles down."

Lin Xiaoxiao looked sideways at Wu Qi, "Tell the driver your address."

Wu Qi gave the address of the apartment, started the car and left.

Tang Jun stood there and watched the car drive away. He sighed softly and turned back to the barbecue restaurant.

He was very envious that Wu Qi could have Lin Xiaoxiao's company, but he only had himself, which was actually quite lonely. But he could only enjoy the loneliness.

He is the heir to the Tang family, but he never wanted to be.
