648 I Only Love You
“I miss you too.” Hearing Zhuang Li’s passion, the smile on Shen Sisi’s face widened. She pouted and made an ambiguous and suggestive sound. Her breath hitched as she asked softly, “Zhuang Li, did you attend Lu Shaoyang’s wedding?” The meaning behind this question was already very clear.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZhuang Li looked around. Of course, he was going to participate. People in the upper-class circle placed their interests first, but they always had to cover their greed up. It would not be nice if they waited until someone else was rich and then went up to be friendly with them. It would be embarrassing. Fortunately, everyone was well-informed and noticed that after the marriage between the Lu Family and the Su Family, the two families had been becoming more and more successful. Many people had begun to build good relations with the both families. Now that the Lu Family had even taken down a big project, as long as they could successfully complete this project, it would not be a problem for the Lu Family to advance.
The reason why Lu Shaoyang’s wedding was so lively this time was because everyone had a feeling that the Lu Family was going to soar, so they came in advance to build a good relationship. Zhuang Li was no exception. He came with Wei Xi’er. Though Wei Xi’er had been studying abroad, she did not neglect her relationships with the people in the country. She had connections with many socialites and best friends. She was chatting with people not far away and had a decent smile on her face. She did not need to dress up. She didn’t need to be pretentious. With just one look, one could see that she was the center of the circle.
Even Zhuang Li had to admit that his experience at parties with Shen Sisi was completely incomparable to when he was with Wei Xi’er. Shen Sisi was always like a pitiful little white flower, weakly clinging to his side. She was just like a bright and beautiful flower vase, unable to provide any additional help to him. However, Wei Xi’er was different. Not only was she beautiful, she was presentable and had a lot of connections. With her around, there would be more people coming up to greet her, further expanding Zhuang Li’s network. No matter who Wei Xi’er faced, she was confident and sociable. She was able to deal with them calmly, making up for his shortcomings and making people feel comfortable. Zhuang Li’s eyes darkened and he paused for a moment before saying, “I’m here.”
“I’m looking at the sea on the second floor’s west deck.” Shen Sisi pretended not to notice Zhuang Li’s momentary silence. She bit her lip and said shyly, “I’ve been here for a long time, and no one is here. Do you want to come over?” Her voice was very soft at the end, as if she was very shy.
Such a shy invitation made it even more difficult for Zhuang Li to control his emotions. However, if someone were to look at Shen Sisi at this moment, they would find that not only was there no shyness on her face, but she was also shockingly clear-headed. There was even a faint coldness in her eyes, like a hunter who was about to catch her prey and was ready to deliver a fatal blow at any time.
On the other end of the phone, Zhuang Li was of course unaware of this scene. He had long been seduced by Shen Sisi, and when he heard her shyly invite him, how could he hold back? Without any hesitation, he made up his mind. “Little demon, be good and wait for me there.” He didn’t wait for Shen Sisi’s reply and hung up the phone.

“We’re talking about the two of you. We were saying that you’re a strong alliance, a perfect match.” A socialite couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh, her eyes filled with envy. “Look, Young Master Zhuang only has eyes for Xi’er. We don’t even exist!”
From the beginning to the end, Zhuang Li only nodded his head coldly at the socialites. This kind of behavior might be a little rude among merchants, but in the eyes of these socialites, it was cold and handsome. Think about it, your boyfriend is very cold to everyone and is not willing to give them more than one look, but his heart and eyes are full of you. He is only gentle and affectionate to you and ignores everyone else when he sees you. Who doesn’t want such a relationship? If anyone had a boyfriend like that, she would probably wake up laughing from her dreams.
Hearing the socialites’ words, the smile on Wei Xi’er’s face became even sweeter, and her calm face showed a rare shy expression. She gently pushed the socialite who had just spoken and teased, “What are you saying? Why do I hear a sour tone in your voice?”
