Chapter 254 Mrs. Lis Birthday
Mrs. Li's birthday was very grand, although it was not a full birthday. However, Mrs. Li didn't know what was going on this year. He had to do a big special office, which was very glamorous.
She was the wife of the Li Family, so it was not too much to celebrate her birthday. Li Chengyan didn't care about her either. It was just more money, so he left it to her to do whatever she wanted.
Mrs. Li booked the entire hotel and arranged all kinds of entertainment. All the Li Family members who could attend came over, and those who were far away specially arranged things to come over. So Li Chengyan, Mrs. Li's son, was naturally the center of the party, and he had to come early.
Mrs. Li greeted the guests with a bright red face and jewels.
Li Chengyan came over with a gift, and Mrs. Li greeted him with a smile. Mrs. Li's face immediately changed when he saw Qiao Ning beside Li Chengyan.
"Why did you bring her here?" Mrs. Li asked in a low voice.
Her face twitched and she felt a scratch on it.
"She's very sorry for what she did before, so she came to apologize to you." Li Chengyan pulled Qiao Ning over and asked her to bring her present.
Sure enough, Qiao Ning smiled gently and said to Mrs. Li with a smile, "Auntie, I'm really sorry before. I was too impulsive and ignorant. Don't be so sensible with me. This small gift is not a suggestion. Please accept it."
Mrs. Li glanced at it and saw a string of english letters printed on it. She knew this brand of jewelry, which was quite expensive.
Originally, she didn't like Qiao Ning very much, but she had to endure it for the sake of this set of jewelry. There was no way to squeeze out a smile, so he could only reply with a "Yes."
Li Chengyan smiled and asked qiao ning to look around and accompany Mrs. Li to greet the guests.
But Mrs. Li was the birthday girl, so there was no reason for her to keep inviting guests. Naturally, she sat in the main seat and accepted the others to pay their respects.
"Go, call ye qing and invite her to the birthday party." Mrs. Li smiled brightly and took the time to whisper to the butler.
The butler glanced at Qiao Ning, nodded knowingly and quickly made a phone call quietly.
Mrs. Li didn't like Qiao Ning, and neither did Ye Ziqing. So there was no plan for Qiao Ning to come, let alone invite Ye Ziqing.
There were also a lot of media reporters today, and Mrs. Li's plan was to only let Li Chengyan attend the birthday party as his son. As for the daughter-in-law, forget it. When these people saw that ye qing was not around, they should not racked their brains to write about it after they went back. Perhaps the most likely guess was that the mother-in-law would not like it, and the rich daughter-in-law would have a hard time.
But Mrs. Li didn't expect that qiao ning would come and disrupted her plan.
But Mrs. Li disliked Qiao Ning even more than he disliked Ye Ziqing. Mrs. Li could not help but grit her teeth. When ye qing came, she wanted to see how the two little bitches fought.
"Miss Qiao? Is it really you?"
Qiao ning was eating the buffet with a small plate, and Mrs. Li was having a hard time. According to medai, the annual good birthday banquet was held in the old house, and the grand ceremony did not continue. This year, she had to be independent, run it in a hotel, and they were all acquaintances. What kind of buffet was she going to make?
Li Chengyan didn't care about these things, but Mi Dai had to help arrange them. When she was tired and had a sore back, she complained to Qiao Ning, and then mysteriously guessed that Mrs. Li felt like he was circling money.
For example, these meals might only cost a million yuan, but he had to ask Mr. Li for a budget of two million yuan.
In the past, Mrs. Li spent almost the same amount of money on the birthday banquet every year. This year, because of the tricks, he paid twice as much. If it was still the same posture as in the past, it would definitely arouse Mr. Li's suspicion and be too eye-catching.
Qiao Ning thought about it, and Mi Dai told her that Mrs. Li looked at the surface. However, since Mr. Li took full control of the Li Group four years ago, the control over Mrs. Li has also been strict.
In the past, Mrs. Li could come to the company to pay at any time, but now he had no right to do so. There was a fixed amount of pocket money every month, and there was no more money. It was understandable that Mrs. Li came up with this idea to circle the money, but Qiao Ning thought of more than that, which was why she had to come here today.
Hearing someone calling her, Qiao Ning looked up at the source of the voice.
Li Yunxiang walked over quickly and said with a smile, "It's really you! I thought I was blinded. Four years ago, when you left, I didn't expect you to come back now."
"So it's you. I came back early, didn't you know?" Qiao Ning said faintly.
Li Yunxiang was more mature and steady than four years ago. Although not as handsome as Li Chengyan, he was a very handsome man.
In fact, Qiao Ning had a good impression of him. He had helped him a few times before.
But because she liked that girl Zhong Qing, it was always easy for her to do something stupid that she hated. Without Zhong Qing, she liked to chat with him.
Li Yunxiang smiled and said, "I've already gone out to develop. I left three years ago. I just returned to Feng City these two days, so I really don't know about you."
"You went out to develop? Why?" Qiao Ning remembered that his father was Li Chengyan's right-hand man.
Li Yunxiang smiled awkwardly and said, "My father offended my little uncle and was sent out directly. I had to go out with him, but fortunately, my little uncle didn't forget us. We've been doing well outside for the past two years. I haven't been back for three years. On my wife's birthday, my little uncle specially allowed me to come back and take a look."
"Ah?" Qiao Ning was surprised.
But he quickly realized that it might be because of four years ago. Hearing that Yan Su wanted to seize power, Mrs. Li was also eager to move. A few people in the Li Family were bribed by Yan Su, and all of them were taken over by Li Chengyan, completely eliminating the people around them who were unfaithful.
Presumably, Li Yunxiang's father was among them, so Li Chengyan sent him out.
"Then you and Zhong Qing..." Qiao Ning couldn't help but gossip when she thought about Li Yunxiang and Zhong Qing.
Just as she was speaking, she didn't expect Zhong Qing to come over. She called Li Yunxiang first. When she ran over and saw Qiao Ning, her face immediately changed.
"Li Yunxiang, why are you with her?" Zhong Qing asked unhappily.
Li Yunxiang quickly put on a fawning face and said, "I met you. Just say a few words."
Qiao Ning rolled his eyes in his heart, thinking that he was really a stupid man. When he saw Zhong Qing, he became completely stupid.
However, she did not forget the last time Zhong Qing helped her, nor did she sneer at Zhong Qing. He said something to the two of them and left with the plate in his hand.
