Not long after, Zhong Xiaoqin reappeared at the venue, looked around and searched. After finding Li Jie, she took him to meet three of her high school best friends.
This time she didn't forget to bring Xu Ziyan with her.
This was not the first time for the three of them to meet Li Jie. They had been here before when they got married. It was just that they had not seen each other for a long time, so it was inevitable that they would feel a little unfamiliar. After all, there was a layer between them.
During the chat, a female voice suddenly came from behind.
"Xiaoqin!"
Looking back, Wang Manni was walking over with Neptune Liang Zhenxian on her arm.
Although Zhong Xiaoqin had seen photos of Liang Zhenxian, this was the first time she saw him in person, so she looked at him with interest.
'It looks a lot worse than the photo.'
Liang Zhenxian's first impression on Zhong Xiaoqin was not particularly good, mostly because of Li Jie's influence.
"Mannie, are you here? Is this your boyfriend?"
"Yes." Wang Manni smiled and nodded, and then introduced: "Xiaoqin, this is my boyfriend, Liang Zhenxian, Zhenxian, this is the Zhong Xiaoqin I mentioned to you."
"Hello!" Liang Zhenxian stretched out his hand with a smile: "I have always heard Manny mention you, and today I finally met you in person."
As soon as he opened his mouth, a strong Hong Kong flavor hit his face, and everyone present could guess where he was from without even introducing him.
"Hello."
Zhong Xiaoqin shook hands with him politely, and then introduced the others one by one.
Although Zhong Xiaoqin still behaved very enthusiastically, Liang Zhenxian, who was in love, was keenly aware of the slight alienation in Zhong Xiaoqin's words.
However, he didn't mind at all and greeted everyone politely.
Liang Zhenxian never considered getting involved in Wang Manni's life circle at first. This time he took the initiative to attend this so-called best friend's birthday party just to appease Wang Manni.
As the saying goes, three women perform one opera. If there are five women present, they can sing eight operas in one arrangement.
Li Jie and Liang Zhenxian silently gave up the stage to them and stood aside obediently to accompany their respective women.
Soon, as the last guest arrived, the banquet officially began.
Similar to the normal banquet process, Gu Jia and his wife first went on stage to thank the guests present and thanked them for coming to attend their birthday party despite their busy schedules.
Next, Xu Huanshan and Xu Ziyan performed a talent show for everyone, which moved Gu Jia to tears.
Finally, Xu Huanshan made another confession of love, which not only moved Gu Jia, but also moved the guests at the scene, and people couldn't help but have a thought in their hearts at the same time.
What a happy family of three!
At the end of the confession ceremony, Xu Huanshan took out the dove eggs that he had prepared. At the same time, brilliant fireworks rose on the lawn in the distance.
Colorful fireworks streaked across the night sky. This fireworks show not only lit up the night sky, but also ignited the atmosphere of the scene.
At the end, the fireworks merged into the two letters 'G' and 'J' in the night sky, which are the pinyin abbreviation of Gu Jia.
The women present all showed a hint of envy, and some even had tears in their eyes.
As the fireworks show ended, Gu Jia and his wife announced that the banquet had officially begun. For a moment, accompanied by the melodious melody of the live band, everyone raised their glasses together and drank and drank.
Since there were too many guests at the scene, Gu Jia and his wife had to weave in and out of the crowd and could not stay in one place for too long.
The table for the dinner is a long one, not the traditional Chinese round or square table.
Compared to Wang Manni, who she met often, Zhong Xiaoqin naturally put more energy into her high school best friend whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
This scene couldn't help but make Wang Manni a little bit disgusted. Fortunately, Liang Zhenxian was with her, so she wasn't ignored much.
Li Jie did not participate too much in the conversation between women. He was chatting with Chen Xu beside him while eating, and occasionally turned his attention to Wang Manni and Haiwang.
These two people are actually very interesting. One is clearly the King of Neptune, and the other is aware of it but tries his best not to think about it.
In the eyes of outsiders, the interaction between the two people seems to be a normal pair of boyfriend and girlfriend, but if you really get into the relationship, you will find that there is a gap between the two.
This gap is so deep and hidden that it cannot be discovered without further investigation.
In addition, both of them are trying their best to cover up and repair this slight crack.
However, no matter how small the crack is, as long as it exists, no matter how hard you try to repair it, you will never be able to go back to the past. Existence is existence.
Li Jie guessed that Liang Zhenxian would definitely be able to discover this. As for whether Wang Manni discovered it or discovered it but deliberately ignored it, it is unknown.
According to common sense analysis, Wang Manni, who has been working in sales for many years, should not be unable to discover this.
In fact, from the perspective of a bystander, Neptune has too many flaws. What did he pay for in this relationship?
A bracelet worth a few euros, a trip that has already been booked, a few pieces of clothing and jewelry, a parking space rented for one month, a car with no property rights but only the right to use it, attending a few high-end parties, eating in a few high-end restaurants, living in
Five star hotels several times.
Apart from this, there is no substantive contribution. The above-mentioned things are just a drop in the bucket for Liang Zhenxian, who is worth billions.
Maybe Wang Manni is the cheapest girl he has ever flirted with, but not necessarily.
If, just if, if Liang Zhenxian really liked Wang Manni and wanted to develop a long-term relationship with her, he would never give these dispensable things.
As a senior Shanghai drifter, what does Wang Manni lack?
What is lacking is a sense of security and a fixed residence. Housing prices in Shanghai are indeed expensive and there are purchase restrictions, but there are ways to circumvent the purchase restrictions. For example, commercial hotel apartments are not subject to purchase restrictions.
If the house is too expensive, it is completely understandable that Liang Zhenxian does not want to use it for the time being not long after they met.
But from the fact that he delivered the car, it can be seen that he didn't want to get too involved with Wang Manni at all.
Liang Zhenxian sent the car with the excuse that it was difficult to get a license plate, and then rented a license plate. According to the regulations of the Shanghai Motor Vehicle Administration Bureau, the owner of the vehicle must be the same as the owner of the license plate.
In fact, it is indeed difficult to get a license plate in Shanghai, but with Liang Zhenxian's ability, it is not difficult to get a personal license plate. The easiest way is to buy a new energy vehicle.
In order to vigorously promote environmental protection, car owners who purchase new energy vehicles will be given license plates as long as they meet the regulations. Wang Manni, who has worked for many years, fully meets the conditions.
Therefore, on the surface, Liang Zhenxian gave away a car, but in fact he only gave away the right to use it. Once the two break up, he can take back the car at any time.
With such simple logic, could it be that the shrewd Wang Manni didn't notice it at all?
In the past, she could explain it as being carried away by love, but after she learned about Zhao Jingyu's existence, was it possible that she still couldn't discover it?
Through today's observation, Li Jie concluded that Wang Manni must have been shaken deep in her heart, but she was so eager to seize this opportunity for class promotion that she subconsciously chose to ignore it.
The weird relationship between these two people can only be said to be that Zhou Yu beats Huang Gai, one is willing to beat and the other is willing to suffer!
Wang Manni wants too much, not only pure love, but also material superiority. Unfortunately, there are so many good things in this world.
