Chapter 886: Chapter 927 Coincidental MeetingXu Yingying would be away on a business trip for a week, which meant Li Yifei had a whole week to handle his own affairs. Although the demolition matter was important, there was another issue that Li Yifei had to address immediately â helping Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling solve their problems. Recently, they had almost blown up Li Yifeiâs phone with their calls; if he didnât show up soon, they might genuinely lose their minds.
Fortunately, Li Yifei had been planning for this for quite some time, and this trip was all about netting the results.
Upon arriving in Capital City, Su Mengxin did not come to pick him up. Instead, Xiao Lingâer, Zheng Yuling, and Su Mengfei, along with a few followers who clearly bore the intent of surveillance, greeted him. Li Yifei knew without asking that these were the arranged companions by Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yulingâs families to watch over the two, preventing any chance of them fleeing before the engagement party, as their absence would turn the event into a mockery.
"Yifei, youâre finally here," Xiao Lingâer greeted him with a huge hug.
Such warmth made Li Yifei a bit embarrassed, but seeing Xiao Lingâerâs excited face, he understood. They must have suffered a great deal emotionally during this time. He reciprocated the hug and joked, "How could I not come? If I didnât, you wouldâve skinned me when you saw me next."
"You know whatâs good for you!" Xiao Lingâer was finally at ease after seeing Li Yifei, tapping him on the back before letting go.
Zheng Yuling immediately hugged Li Yifei as well and said, "Itâs all up to you now."
Li Yifei patted Zheng Yulingâs back just like he had done with Xiao Lingâer and reassured her with a smile, "Donât worry, since Iâm here, I will certainly solve this problem for you." seaĘá´h thŃ NovŃlĆire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Zheng Yuling released Li Yifei, and Xiao Lingâer quickly nudged Su Mengfei, teasingly saying, "Itâs your turn now."
Su Mengfei came forward with a giggle and wrapped her arms around Li Yifei, saying, "Brother-in-law, let me reserve my hug first."
Li Yifei laughed heartily, "With your sister, you wonât be that pitiful."
The entourage that had come to keep an eye on Xiao Lingâer and the others was now quite astonished. Although Xiao Lingâer, Zheng Yuling, and Su Mengfei were known to be wild, they were relatively reserved in terms of male-female relationships. They had never been seen getting close to any man, and now all three of them were embracing the same guy â it was a real shocker for them.
They couldnât help but take a closer look at Li Yifei. The man in front of them was decent-looking and fit, but not exactly what you would call a real hunk or pretty boy. What was it about this guy that captivated all three beauties?
The three women surrounded Li Yifei as they left the airport, then headed straight for Su Mengxinâs villa, where she would return a bit later.
Once at the villa, the followers of Xiao Lingâer and the others couldnât come in; they had to stay outside, giving Xiao Lingâer and the others even more freedom.
"Hey, Yifei, what exactly are you planning to do?" Xiao Lingâer was already impatient. Before Li Yifei could even sit down on the sofa, she rushed to his side, grabbing his arm with urgency.
Zheng Yuling also sat down on the other side and said just as anxiously, "Yes, please tell us. Weâre practically dying from the suspense."
Li Yifei chuckled, "Some things are better left unsaid. I absolutely cannot tell you my plans in advance, or it might spoil everything."
"But this is about our entire future," Xiao Lingâer pressed, "Do you think we would go around blabbing?"
"You wouldnât, but youâre not sly enough to keep it under wraps indefinitely. To be honest, if both of you werenât so desperate, I wouldnât even let on that I can help you solve this."
Seeing Li Yifei take the issue so seriously, Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling dared not ask any further. They were well aware of the kind of people he was dealing with. Although those two were irresponsible and hardly sharp-witted, the families backing them were incredibly powerful. Even a slight misstep could topple Li Yifeiâs plans.
"Okay, okay, we wonât ask anymore," Xiao Lingâer conceded. "But youâve been so good to us, donât you want a little reward first?" She hugged Li Yifeiâs arm, pressing her chest against it, her eyes clearly holding a seductive allure.
Li Yifei dreaded most when these two used this tactic. Because of their past mischief, these two beauties dropped their guard around him, and they were quite casual when together with him. But Li Yifei was a grown man, facing such temptation, it was impossible not to be moved. However, he wasnât the carefree playboy he used to be, so naturally, he couldnât behave as recklessly as before. The more they acted like this, the more uncomfortable it was for him, and he quickly said, "Donât mess around, or youâll mess up my plans, and that will be on you."
Although they knew Li Yifei was just making an excuse, Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling really didnât dare to continue their teasing. They cheerfully started to chat with Li Yifei.
A while later, Su Mengxin made a call, saying she couldnât come back for the time being and asked them to go out to eat together later, setting a time and place. Li Yifei then hung up the phone.
Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling had really hoped to taste Li Yifeiâs cooking, so when Su Mengxin suggested eating out, it left them somewhat disappointed. But Su Mengxin had been very busy lately, always engaged in transferring her massive workload to other members of the Su Family. They were all understanding of her situation.
When it was nearly six oâclock, Li Yifei and the others arrived at the famous Wanhao Hotel in the Capital City, a five-star establishment and property of the Su Family. They went straight to the room mentioned by Su Mengxin, who was already there waiting.
It had been some time since Li Yifei and Su Mengxin had seen each other, and naturally, they were quite pleased to meet again. But with these three tag-alongs, the two couldnât pour out their hearts to each other. They exchanged smiles, saying all that needed to be said without words.
Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling were in a particularly good mood, and the group of five chatted and ate happily. From time to time, Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling deliberately teased Li Yifei, and seeing him embarrassed made them especially joyful. They were not at all afraid of Su Mengxin getting jealous.
Su Mengfei was more behaved at the moment. Unlike the other two, she hadnât been entangled in the recent drama and thus didnât have the same relaxed demeanor around Li Yifei. Plus, in front of her cousin Su Mengxin, it was certainly not proper for her to flirt too provocatively with Li Yifei.
The group of five didnât drink much, just a little. After having their meal, they prepared to leave. But as they approached the elevator, several people came out from another private room. Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling, who had been all smiles, suddenly became solemn.
Li Yifei glanced at the group and immediately recognized two of them: one was Xiao Lingâerâs betrothed, He Zhenyu, and the other was Zheng Yulingâs betrothed, Chen Fangzhou. Li Yifei had done quite a lot of work for them recently and naturally recognized the two men, but he had never shown himself before, so they didnât recognize him.
"Hey, Zhenyu, Fangzhou, arenât these your fiancĂŠes?" a slick-looking Pretty Boy chuckled and winked at He Zhenyu and Chen Fangzhou.
Both He Zhenyu and Chen Fangzhou, if judged by looks alone, were quite decent, at least not offensive to the audience. But at that moment, the smell of alcohol on them, along with their aristocratic arrogance, made them look particularly disagreeable.
Then another lad said, "What a coincidence, huh? Hey, Zhenyu, Fangzhou, why donât you bring them along, and letâs all go out for some singing?"
As far as He Zhenyu and Chen Fangzhou were concerned, they were quite satisfied with Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling. In the major families of the Capital City, many girls were involved in all sorts of activities, and ones like Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling were really rare. Beautiful and proper in their relationshipsâsuch women were incredibly rare for heirs of great families, and marrying them was a matter of pride for He Zhenyu and Chen Fangzhou. Each time they discussed their arranged marriages, even other peers from similar families felt envious.
Both men were too proud to lose face. So, when their friend suggested it, they couldnât refuse, even knowing that Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling both greatly disliked them. They both stepped forward together.
He Zhenyu spoke to Xiao Lingâer first, "Lingâer, friends are going to sing together, you should come along."
At the same time, Chen Fangzhou also said to Zheng Yuling, "Yuling, letâs go."
Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling, as if having coordinated beforehand, glared in unison and said, "Weâre not going."
He Zhenyu and Chen Fangzhou both turned visibly upset. Being rejected in front of friends was indeed a loss of face, especially by the women who were to be their wives, which seemed even more humiliating.
He Zhenyuâs expression darkened and he said, "Lingâer, these are all my good friends. You canât not go."
Xiao Lingâer felt enraged looking at He Zhenyu because her family wanted to marry her off to this man. Seeing him only aggravated her resentment, and being spoken to in such a tone was even more intolerable. She arched her eyebrow contemptuously and said, "I wonât go, who do you think you are? Let me tell you, I have a man, and if you think youâre marrying me, you can forget it." With that, she looped her arm through Li Yifeiâs.
The groupâs attention, especially He Zhenyuâs, instantly focused on Li Yifei. His eyes carried a cold light, for in his heart, the man Xiao Lingâer was embracing was as good as dead!
