Yu Shanhe and Ling Hao were seated at a table at the side. Yu Shanhe was happily chatting with those people, it seemed that their relationship was not bad.
When Xia Lei looked at Yu Shanhe and Ling Hao, Ling Hao got up and walked towards a window. When he reached the window, he took out his cell phone to call someone.
Just as Xia Lei was about to lock onto the reflection on the window and use his lip language to decipher the contents of the glass, his phone suddenly rang.
Who would call at this hour?
Xia Lei did not pick it up, he continued to lock onto Ling Hao, but Ling Hao also did not say anything.
"Your cell phone is ringing. Why aren't you answering it?" Tang Yuyan came over with a curious look.
"Uh, I didn't hear you, sorry." Xia Lei then took out his phone, but there was no number on the screen. His mind was filled with confusion. He got up and left the dining table before answering the phone. "Hello, may I know ?"
"It's me." A man's voice came out of the phone.
Xia Lei was startled, he was too familiar with this voice, because it was Ling Hao's voice.
In the same restaurant, he could hear their conversation if they talked loudly, but Ling Hao chose to do it this way ? ? Call him.
What did Ling Hao want to do?
Xia Lei could not guess Ling Hao's motive.
"Don't be surprised, I just want to talk to you." Ling Hao's voice.
Xia Lei said lightly: "I don't know what else we have to talk about, don't you think it's funny like this?"
"That's funny." Ling Hao's voice sounded, "But if I don't do this, would you talk to me? You have closed the door to communication, so I have no choice but to do so. "
"Communication?" Xia Lei lightly snorted, "In the past, I actually wanted to communicate with you two, but you two didn't even open the door. Now, you actually want to talk to me?
"It's best if it works. I'll just say a few words, you really should listen."
"Go ahead."
"You are a smart person, and I believe you understand the principle of leaving a mark on everything. You've got what you want, and there's no point in targeting anyone else. It's no good for anyone if we continue to be hostile. " Ling Hao's voice became softer, "Chief Yu is expressing his goodwill to you, giving each other a way out, you should grasp this opportunity, and turn hostility into friendship. As long as you are willing, we will be friends in the future. "One more friend is better than one more enemy, right?"
Was this an act of courtesy followed by action, or was he really resolving the conflict?
No matter what kind of goal Yu Shanhe and Ling Hao had, there was no way to resolve the conflict between Xia Lei and the two of them. It was for no other reason but because the actions of the Wangda in Western province were inextricably linked to the two of them, and the deaths of Amanda and Piao Taiyong were also inextricably linked to the two of them. More importantly, he himself had almost died on the snowy mountain in Wangda in Western province!
If he could forgive someone who could kill his or her family or even someone who almost did, it wasn't because he was magnanimous, but because he was stupid. Furthermore, Yu Shanhe and Ling Hao expressing their good will at this critical moment, was their own action to protect themselves. Once they recovered, would they still be friends with him? These two were wolves in human skin. They were not trustworthy!
Xia Lei was very clear on this point in his heart, but his face still revealed a smile, "Alright, I'll be fine, as a person, I like to make friends the most."
"Then it's a deal, come over and toast to Yu Shanhe later."
Xia Lei was silent for a moment, then said: "There's no need for that, it would be weird if others saw it. "How about this, tonight we will set an appointment at a different place to have a good talk. At that time, not to mention a toast, there won't even be a problem for ten glasses of wine."
Ling Hao hung up the phone, turned and looked at Xia Lei, and revealed a smile.
Xia Lei nodded at him slightly, with a smile on his face, looking very friendly.
Ling Hao returned to the dining table.
Xia Lei dialed a number and called a number.
"Chairman Xia, what's the matter?" Qing Caiyue's voice.
"What is Xiao Zhu doing?" Xia Lei asked.
"She went out on the street."
"Going out on the street? "Where did you go?"
Qing Caiyue's voice rang, "She said that she wanted to buy toys, but I was busy. I had two security guards bring her to White Deer Town. "Don't worry, the two security guards are watching her. It's fine."
"Tell the two security guards to bring him back and wait for my call. I'll tell you the time and place on the phone, and when you get my call, bring her here. "Okay?" Xia Lei said.
"Alright, I understand. I'll call the security." Qing Caiyue said.
Xia Lei hung up the phone and went back to the dining table. When Zhu Xuanyue went out to buy toys, even though she was only a few years old, he wasn't worried at all about Zhu Xuanyue encountering any dangers. In this world, the only person who could hurt her was that mysterious black robed man, right? Other than the black-robed man, she could have just avoided hurting anyone else. Who could have possibly hurt her?
"Bringing Zhu Xuanyue to our meeting, she should be able to give me a surprise, right?" A cold smile surfaced on the corner of Xia Lei's mouth.
"What are you laughing at?" Tang Yuyan's voice sounded like she was laughing, "Did you think of something fun?"
Xia Lei replied, "Nothing. "Oh yeah, I have something I want to ask you ?"
"Uncle Xia is here." Tang Yuyan suddenly interrupted Xia Lei.
Xia Lei glanced over and saw his father Xia Changhe walking over.
Tang Tianlong stood up and went forward to welcome him, holding Xia Changhe's hand, he said very cordially: "Old brother, come, come, sit, we're waiting for you to begin the banquet."
"I'm really sorry for the traffic jam, I've made everyone wait for a long time." Xia Changhe had an apologetic look. He glanced at Xia Lei but the father and son duo only smiled faintly, not saying a word.
When Xia Changhe arrived, the people of the Tang Clan greeted him cordially, as if they were family.
However, Xia Lei felt a headache. He could completely feel that even though his father Xia Changhe said that he was the one in charge of everything between him and Tang Yuyan, his father actually liked him being with Tang Yuyan. Otherwise, his father would not tell him about carrying his grandson, nor would he come here.
However, he did understand his father's feelings. There was no parent who did not wish for their children to have a good home to live in. The Tang Family was a famous family, and Tang Yuyan was the treasure of the Tang Family. If he and Tang Yuyan combined their powers and resources, it would be a great thing for both of them.
Actually, he had also carefully thought about the matter of him and Tang Yuyan merging as well. She was also a beautiful guest. She was very outstanding in every aspect. Furthermore, she was about to become the director of the 101st Bureau. She held a lot of power. Facing such an extremely outstanding woman who was absolutely compatible with him, he had always felt that something was missing in his heart.
The birthday feast began after the pleasantries were over.
Everyone at the table toasted to each other. The atmosphere was lively.
"I think that the more I look at Xia Lei, the more I like him. Not only is he handsome, his heart is also kind. In a short period of time, Zhang Yumei raised a topic of conversation.
The gazes of everyone at the table were focused on Xia Lei and Tang Yuyan. A perfect match, just looking at it would make people like it.
Xia Lei was not a match for these people, and slightly nodded.
Xia Changhe laughed: "Your Yu Yan is also not bad. Not only is she pretty, but she has a good temperament and your Tang Family is also famous. Which man married your Yu Yan, that would be lucky."
Tang Yuyan looked very bashful as she also lowered her head. At the same time, she looked at Xia Lei from the corner of her eyes.
Shi Boren, who was at the same table as him, suddenly laughed: "I see that you all don't want to say these useless words anymore. I'm a crude person, I like to be straightforward. I like both Yu Yan and Xia Lei, and it's too embarrassing for both of you to speak up. I'll be the matchmaker for today, how about we bring these two together? "
"Alright, I have no objections." Zhang Yumei laughed sweetly, "Oh me, the first time I saw Xia Lei, I already liked him, and I thought he was the other half of our family's Yu Yan."
"Couples' faces, that's called couples' faces." Tang Yunhai laughed.
"Old Xia, what do you think?" Shi Boren looked at Xia Changhe.
"I ?" Xia Changhe glanced at Xia Lei, but laughed and said: "I also have no objections, I also quite like this child Yu Yan."
"Then it's settled. It's settled then." Shi Boren laughed out loud: "This birthday banquet is equivalent to your two families' wedding banquet, hahaha."
Then, the gazes of the people at the table gathered on Xia Lei and Tang Yuyan's bodies.
The parents of both sides had no objections and liked each other, but the two protagonists had yet to express their opinions.
The two protagonists appeared very awkward.
"Aiyo, I almost forgot ?" Shi Boren laughed: "For this kind of thing, our seniors are talking about it excitedly here. The other two have yet to express their stance yet. Yuyan, you don't have any objections, do you? "
"Godfather ?" Tang Yuyan's face was already very red, but now it was even redder. Her appearance was bashful and bashful, and she had the charm of a pure and innocent young girl.
Shi Boren looked at Xia Lei, "Xia Lei, what about you? "What do you mean?"
"I ?" Xia Lei wanted to say something but stopped in his tracks. He looked awkward and nervous.
Long Bing was right, she would not reject others. This was truly a big weakness of his. Furthermore, this was not something that could be rejected so easily.
The Tang Family borrowing Shi Boren's sixtieth birthday to force the marriage was already putting their face in their pockets, giving him enough face. If he were to refuse at this moment, it would be equivalent to slapping the Tang Clan in the face. If a clan that viewed face and inheritance as extremely important were to be slapped in the face now, they would definitely not be able to be friends in the future. Moreover, this was what his father Xia Changhe had promised him. His father, Xia Changhe, gave him two lives. The first time was when he was brought into this world. The second time was when he risked his life to steal AE capsules from AE Research Center to cure his terminal illness, and that was where his ability came from. But his father, Xia Changhe, had never asked for anything from him, he only paid, and never asked for anything from him. This was the only wish his father Xia Changhe had, so how could he bear to refuse?
And the worst part of it was, he and Tang Yuyan actually had a vague feeling of liking each other.
The people at the table were all very nervous, especially Tang Yuyan.
"Why are you so obedient? Speak up. " Shi Boren urged.
Xia Lei took a deep breath, "En ?"
However, just as he was about to continue, a voice suddenly rang out. "Brother-in-law! This is bad! "
