Seeing his son becoming extremely agitated and losing his composure, Leng Guangjiang, with a smile, said, "They are all young people, and competition is a good thing, but I still hope to see a more peaceful competition."
"Exactly, exactly!" Xi Ying Tian also chimed in with a laugh, "We are all businessmen. Harmony brings wealth!"
With both of them speaking, Leng Yi suppressed the surge of anger in his heart, realizing he had lost his composure.
"May I ask which esteemed guest brought this young brother?" Xi Ying Tian inquired curiously.
It wasn't just Xi Ying Tian who was curious; at that moment, many people were wondering. If Yang Fei Long had elders present, why didn't they intervene to prevent him from offending the Leng family and inviting trouble?
Yang Fei Long looked towards Li Yu Fei.
Li Yu Fei, at some unknown point, had picked up a glass of red wine and was leisurely sipping it, showing no inclination to speak. She seemed to want Yang Fei Long to handle it himself, which left Yang Fei Long feeling helpless.
Just as Yang Fei Long was about to speak, Xi Meng Ru, standing not far behind Li Yu Fei, timidly raised her hand and said, "He is my friend, I brought him."
Actually, she didn't want to speak, but Yang Fei Long had glanced at her with a somewhat dejected expression.
This made her feel a pang of sympathy. She thought he might have snuck in; at such an event, it was usually difficult for ordinary people to get in. However, she felt Yang Fei Long could do it, given his extraordinary demeanor, perhaps even the doorman wouldn't dare to ask him for an invitation.
To prevent Yang Fei Long, whom she had just met and considered a friend, from being embarrassed, she stood up and spoke.
"En?" To be honest, Yang Fei Long was bewildered. Miss, what's going on? Why are you speaking up for me? And are we that close?
Of course, even if he didn't need her kindness, he had to acknowledge it.
Li Yu Fei, on the other hand, looked at Yang Fei Long with a cold smile, as if to say, "You're quite something. In just an hour, you've charmed a young lady from a wealthy family. Truly capable."
Yang Fei Long was also helpless about this. At this moment, it wasn't appropriate to explain to Li Yu Fei, otherwise, wouldn't Xi Meng Ru, who had spoken up for him, be embarrassed and upset?
"You brought him?" Upon hearing this, Xi Ying Tian's body trembled, and his vision went black. This was bad; the Leng family would surely resent him now.
Indeed, after his daughter spoke, both Leng Yi and Leng Guangjiang gave Xi Ying Tian a profound look.
Good heavens, so Xi Ying Tian, who was trying to curry favor with them, had been stabbed in the back.
In their eyes, the shy Xi Meng Ru wouldn't have the courage to say such a thing. This must have been with Xi Ying Tian's tacit approval. This guy might even be Xi Ying Tian's nephew or something similar.
Your Xi family is truly capable. Do you want to become the kingpin of the jewelry industry in Lan Hai City!
This eliminated the last shred of doubt in Leng Yi's heart. The Xi family, despite their vast wealth, was like a rootless duckweed; the Leng family didn't take them seriously. This was why Leng Guangjiang dared to suggest that Xi Ying Tian's daughter become his son's concubine when they discussed a potential marriage alliance.
He had the confidence to do so.
He also knew that even in such a situation, Xi Ying Tian would not feel humiliated but would instead consider it natural.
Xi Meng Ru, unaware of her good intentions, had now brought a major problem upon her family.
She didn't understand these subtleties. She simply felt that Yang Fei Long was her friend. Seeing him, who was both assertive and somewhat fickle, now isolated and seemingly looking to her for "help," she had imagined a scenario and wanted to lend a hand.
Her heart was pure and simple.
"Some people simply lack self-awareness," Leng Yi said with a hint of sarcasm.
"Very true!" Yang Fei Long chimed in.
This made Leng Yi's expression falter. This guy was agreeing with him?
The next moment, Yang Fei Long shrugged and directly said to Li Yu Fei, "Beauty, you've been watching the show for long enough. Give me a chance to dance, or I'm leaving!"
Mainly, he felt it was getting boring.
Hearing this, Leng Yi immediately looked towards Li Yu Fei.
"You're asking me to dance, do you know how to?" Li Yu Fei pursed her lips and asked. She clearly saw that Yang Fei Long was growing impatient and decided not to tease him further.
"No!" Yang Fei Long shrugged. "Who bothers to learn this stuff?"
Instantly, countless people were speechless. You don't know how to dance, yet you're asking someone to dance?
"You don't know how to dance, and you're asking me? Are you serious?" Li Yu Fei almost laughed out loud. This guy was acting so genuine, she thought he might actually know how to dance.
"I don't know how, isn't this giving you an opportunity? You teach me, and then I'll know?" Yang Fei Long rubbed his nose.
Hearing Yang Fei Long's incredibly shameless words, the people present were once again stunned. Was there such a shameless person? This isn't giving you an opportunity? Excuse me, who is giving whom an opportunity? Aren't you pursuing Li Yu Fei?
Li Yu Fei didn't tease him further because she desperately wanted to know if Yang Fei Long had listened to her. Why had he, within the hour she was in a meeting, gotten involved with that seemingly very pure woman? "To invite a lady to dance, should it be done like this?"
As she spoke, she struck a pose. Even mimicking a man inviting someone, she was elegant and beautiful!
"Yu Fei, dancing is a pleasure, and dancing with someone who doesn't know how to is awkward," Leng Yi said with a smile. "If he doesn't know how to dance, he can have etiquette instructors teach him. Once he learns, then he can invite a girl to dance. Otherwise, that's not the bearing of a gentleman. I can..."
At this moment, Yang Fei Long had already learned the inviting gesture from Li Yu Fei. He directly interrupted Leng Yi, who was talking to himself, and looked at Li Yu Fei with a gentlemanly smile, saying, "Beautiful lady, would you do me the honor of dancing with me?"
"Of course," Li Yu Fei replied with a demure smile.
And so, the two went onto the dance floor.
The entire process seemed absurd and ridiculous.
Countless people were bewildered. This actually worked?
Especially the young masters, who were green with envy. If one could gain Li Yu Fei's favor like this, then they could do it too!
Who couldn't be shameless!
Leng Yi, standing to the side, trembled. His goddess was being taken away by his love rival? He knew that she wouldn't even agree to a perfunctory handshake and seemed to have a germophobia, but he had overlooked it, thinking it was a good thing that his goddess was so pure. But now, his long-coveted goddess, right before his eyes, not only rejected his invitation but was led away by a guy who couldn't even dance?
And this guy was a scumbag!
Fine, he wasn't much better when it came to relationships, but how was he inferior to this guy in any other aspect!
Alright, he was a bit more handsome, but that was it. Were women so superficial?
Watching Li Yu Fei, who was being stepped on and groped by Yang Fei Long repeatedly on the dance floor, Leng Yi's face turned red, and his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
This detestable fellow!
