Leng Qinglian's faint words were like the sharpest sword, piercing into Leng Mingzhi's heart, causing his expression to change.
Leng Mingzhi's face turned pale, his fists were clenched, and his joints were slightly white.
He still remembered that twenty years ago he made a decision that he would regret throughout his life, causing the woman he loved most to leave him holding the infant Leng Qinglian.
"Leng Mingzhi, from now on, you and I will no longer have anything to do with each other."
Chen Yumin's decisive words seemed to still be lingering in his ears, and Leng Ming knew he would never forget them in his life.
More than ten seconds passed, and Leng Mingzhi still didn't say a word.
The entire birthday banquet hall was also silent, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.
Leng Mingzhi abandoned his wife and daughter twenty years ago for power and married a daughter of a large family in Jiangnan. To be precise, it was a marriage.
Leng Mingzhi abandoned Leng Qinglian and her daughter for the sake of profit.
There are very few people who know about this. Perhaps only Leng Mingzhi knows about it, and Leng Qinglian's grandfather Chen Jingming is the only one at the scene.
After a while, Leng Mingzhi spoke again: "Qinglian, today is your birthday. I specially prepared a birthday gift for you. I hope you like it."
As Leng Mingzhi spoke, he waved to the guards behind him.
The guard left and took out a beautiful gift box from his body and handed it to Leng Mingzhi. He took the gift box, then opened it and presented it to Leng Qinglian for viewing.
The moment the gift box was opened, the entire banquet hall seemed a little brighter.
Inside the gift box is a huge but bright luminous pearl, which is priceless and very beautiful.
Seeing such a huge but beautiful night pearl, many ladies and ladies at the scene screamed in surprise.
I am extremely envious that Leng Qinglian could receive such a precious birthday gift.
But Leng Qinglian remained unmoved, as if she hadn't seen the luminous pearl at all.
"Qinglian, this is the night pearl of the South China Sea. I specially found someone and spent a lot of money to get it. I will give it to you today as a birthday gift." Leng Mingzhi said with a smile.
"You have nothing to do with me. I won't accept the birthday gift you gave me." Leng Qinglian shook her head and said calmly.
"And I have received the best birthday gift today. No matter how good you say it, nothing else can compare to it."
Leng Mingzhi's faint smile froze, and suddenly he noticed something tightly held in Leng Qinglian's hand.
"Qinglian, the best birthday gift you said is the thing in your hand?" Leng Mingzhi looked at Leng Qinglian and said.
"Yes, that's it."
Leng Qinglian directly opened her palms and showed the jade pendant given to her by Xu Qingyun.
Someone immediately recognized that what Leng Qinglian was holding was a gift given to her by the young man before. Unexpectedly, the best birthday gift Leng Qinglian said turned out to be such a jade pendant.
It's just a jade pendant. To say it is the best birthday gift is an overstatement.
There was a flurry of discussion in the banquet hall.
However, some people who knew jade frowned slightly, looking at the jade pendant in Leng Qinglian's hand from a distance, and fell into deep thought.
"Who gave you this jade pendant?"
Leng Ming knew that he didn't understand jade, so he felt that although this jade pendant was exquisite, it was not as good as his own luminous pearl.
Leng Qinglian said that this was the best birthday gift. The gift itself was not precious, so the person who gave it to her was special.
Was it given to her by her mother, Chen Yumin, or by her grandfather, Chen Jingming?
Just then, a sudden voice sounded.
"This gift is from me to Qinglian."
Everyone immediately looked towards the source of the voice. The speaker was a handsome young man in a neat suit.
He slowly walked towards Leng Qinglian on the stage.
This person is none other than Xu Qingyun.
Chen Jingming, the old man of the Chen family, looked at Xu Qingyun with a somewhat complicated expression.
He knew this Master Qin.
Leng Qinglian smiled softly at Xu Qingyun who was approaching.
"Who are you?"
Leng Mingzhi's eyes fell on Xu Qingyun. When he saw Leng Qinglian, who had never smiled at him, but smiled at this young man, his eyes immediately darkened.
Leng Qinglian rejected his father thousands of miles away, like a stranger, but she was so close to a young man she was unfamiliar with, which made Leng Mingzhi feel extremely unhappy.
Leng Qinglian was about to introduce Xu Qingyun, but Xu Qingyun spoke first and said calmly: "My name is Xu Qingyun."
Leng Mingzhi frowned slightly and recalled for a while, but he did not remember that there was a big family like the Xu family in Yuncheng, and he had never heard of such a number one person in Yuncheng.
Before coming to Yuncheng, he had known the situation here in advance. This was his usual habit.
"I don't care who you are, stay away from my daughter." Leng Mingzhi looked at Xu Qingyun and said in a warning tone.
Xu Qingyun smiled faintly, but directly took Leng Qinglian's jade hand in front of Leng Mingzhi.
A hint of blush flashed across Leng Qinglian's pretty face, but she did not break away from Xu Qingyun's hand.
"Let her go!" Leng Mingzhi's voice was cold, and a powerful aura that had been at the top for a long time came directly towards Xu Qingyun.
But Xu Qingyun seemed unaware and said calmly: "Qinglian, I just said that you are not her father, what qualifications do you have to care about her."
As soon as Xu Qingyun said these words, many people in the banquet hall took a breath, either in shock, horror, or disbelief.
"Is this kid crazy? How dare he talk like this."
"Don't he know who he is facing? That is the head of the Leng family in Jiangnan!"
"If you dare to speak to Leng Mingzhi like this, I'm afraid this guy is doomed."
Everyone was talking a lot, thinking that Xu Qingyun was going to be unlucky.
Leng Qinglian looked at Xu Qingyun, with a hint of joy on her pretty face.
Leng Ming knew that he was angry in his heart, but it didn't show on his face. He looked at Xu Qingyun and said in a cold voice: "I don't know what you have to rely on, but no matter what you have to rely on, in my eyes, you are just an ant.
, I can take care of you at any time."
"If I thought, you might never see the sun tomorrow again."
Leng Mingming knew that these words were very calm, but they made countless people present feel numb.
None of them would doubt the authenticity of Leng Mingzhi's words. The Leng family, where Leng Mingzhi lives, is the top family in Jiangnan. It is powerful and has several heavenly realm masters as guest guests.
No one wants to be an enemy of such a family, because they may become a corpse in the next moment.
Leng Qinglian frowned slightly.
Xu Qingyun always had a faint smile on his face, as if he didn't hear Leng Mingzhi's threatening words.
He looked at Leng Mingzhi and said in a calm tone: "Why, the Leng family master has lost his prestige in front of his daughter, and he just wants to get it back with me, a nobody?"
Xu Qingyun looked at Leng Mingzhi with a pair of bright and deep starry eyes, and immediately said word by word: "The Leng family in Jiangnan is nothing more than this!"
When the words came out, the whole place was silent.
