Transmigrating into a book, the fake daughter is spoiled by the group every day
Chapter 32 Banquet 3
Lu Jinan's eyes were undisguised, and Luo Jinghao, standing beside him, also noticed something was wrong. His heart sank. Could it be that Lu Jinan was interested in Xiao Li? That shouldn't be the case! They met for the first time today, how could Lu Jinan suddenly become interested in Jiang Li?
"An'an, you haven't seen Jin'an for a long time." Luo Jinghao hurriedly called Luo Ning'er, also to remind Lu Jin'an to remember who he was engaged to.
Hearing Luo Ning'er's name, Lu Jin'an's expression changed slightly, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. Although this trace of disgust was only a flash, it was still noticed by Luo Ning'er who had been observing him.
Although she heard Luo Jinghao calling her, Luo Ning'er didn't take the initiative to go up and greet Lu Jin'an. She didn't want to show her affection to someone who didn't respond. If she greeted him and he ignored her, wouldn't that be very embarrassing?
Lu Jinan was already trying to avoid Luo Ning'er, so naturally he wouldn't take the initiative to say hello. The two of them remained in a stalemate, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
The wealthy young men around were all very smart. Seeing this scene, they all began to discuss it in low voices. They all knew the relationship between the Lu and Luo families, and now seeing the two of them in such a stalemate, they couldn't help but laugh secretly in their hearts.
"Sister An An, long time no see. Why don't you come out to play with your brother recently?" Chen Zhao, who has a good relationship with them, said.
Luo Ning'er glanced at Chen Zhao and said silently, "I've been a little busy lately."
"I heard from your brother that you have been studying hard recently!" Chen Zhao teased.
"Chen Zhao, you are a playboy, don't mess with my sister." Luo Jinghao warned with a cold face.
"Oh, it's just a joke. Everyone knows that Sister An An likes someone else!" As he said that, Chen Zhao winked and pushed Lu Jinan next to him.
But Lu Jinan remained unmoved, his eyes looking ahead coldly, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
Chen Zhao had already given Lu Jinan a way out, but he still acted like this. Luo Jinghao on the side finally couldn't help it.
"Lu Jinan, please pay attention to your identity." Luo Jinghao said gritting his teeth.
"My identity? What you said is really interesting." Lu Jinan raised a mocking smile, "What is my identity?"
Hearing what Lu Jinan said, Luo Jinghao was furious. He clenched his fists and wanted to rush over to teach Lu Jinan a lesson, but Luo Ning'er reached out and grabbed his sleeve.
Luo Ning'er shook her head gently, her eyes filled with worry. She knew that if a conflict broke out here, it would definitely affect the atmosphere of the entire party. So, she gave her brother a comforting look and hinted that he should remain calm and not act impulsively.
However, Lu Jinan seemed to completely ignore Luo Jinghao's anger. There was a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was very satisfied with his performance just now.
At this moment, Jiang Li, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't help but speak, trying to break the tense atmosphere: "Let's continue to the next place."
After hearing Jiang Li's words, before Luo Jinghao and Luo Ning'er could respond, Lu Jin'an couldn't wait to seize the opportunity and said, "Xiao Li, why don't I take you to meet some other friends?" Then, he asked cautiously, "Can I call you that?"
Jiang Li nodded slightly to show his agreement.
Seeing that Jiang Li had no objection, Lu Jinan was delighted.
However, when he heard his words, Luo Jinghao's face instantly turned gloomy, and anger flashed in his eyes.
"No need, you guys continue chatting. An An and I will take Xiao Li to meet other people. After all, this kind of thing should be arranged by the host. How can we let the guests bother with it?" Luo Jinghao rejected Lu Jinan's proposal without hesitation, his tone firm and unquestionable.
After saying that, he took Luo Ning'er and Jiang Li away.
"Hey, hey, hey, stop looking. You're still looking after everyone has left." Chen Zhao, who was standing by, couldn't help but remind Lu Jinan when he saw that he was still looking.
When Lu Jinan heard this, he slowly withdrew his gaze, glanced at Chen Zhao, then sat back on the sofa as if nothing had happened, picked up the red wine in front of him, and took a sip.
"No way, you're not really interested in this Jiang Li who was just recognized!" Looking at Lu Jinan's attitude, Chen Zhao asked anxiously.
Lu Jinan still didn't speak, but his eyes revealed an elusive expression.
"Brother, you are engaged to Luo Ning'er. The Luo family will definitely not let you be with Jiang Li." Chen Zhao anxiously sat down next to Lu Jinan, his tone full of worry.
However, Lu Jinan only smiled faintly, seemingly unconcerned with Chen Zhao's words. He gently shook the wine glass in his hand and said calmly, "The Lu and Luo families have an engagement, but it doesn't say that the person must be Luo Ning'er, and she's not from the Luo family either."
Chen Zhao's eyes widened at this sentence. He didn't expect Lu Jin'an to answer like this. He knew that Lu Jin'an had always hated Luo Ning'er's constant pestering of him, but he didn't expect him to be interested in Jiang Li, a girl he had just met.
The corners of Lu Jinan's mouth curled up slightly, and a barely perceptible glint flashed in his eyes. He already had his own plans in mind, and he had his own unique views on this marriage.
"Luo Ning'er likes you so much, how could it be possible..." Chen Zhao couldn't believe what he heard.
"It's her business if she likes me. There are so many people who like me. Do I have to be with them?" Lu Jinan looked indifferent.
"You are such a heartless person. After all, we have known each other for so many years, you shouldn't be like this." Chen Zhao felt that Lu Jinan was too cold.
"If you like Luo Ning'er, you can go up. If you get together with her, I will definitely give you a big gift." Lu Jinan teased.
"Go to hell. We are friends with Jinghao. Jinghao's sister is my sister. I am not like you." Chen Zhao said unhappily.
Lu Jinan rolled his eyes at Chen Zhao, put down his wine glass, and walked towards Jiang Li.
"What are you going to do?" Chen Zhao asked curiously.
"Don't meddle in things that are not your business." Lu Jinan replied without turning his head.
At this time, in a corner of the banquet hall, two men were sitting on the sofa. The lights were dim, creating a warm and mysterious atmosphere.
They gently shook the wine glasses in their hands, and the red liquid sparkled with an alluring luster under the light, but their eyes did not stay on the wine glasses, but wandered around.
"What's the point of this kind of party? I really don't understand why you came." One of them broke the silence, his voice low and slightly dissatisfied.
The other man heard this and a smile curved his lips, a smile that seemed particularly mysterious under the dim light. "You know what? Banquets like this are the fastest way to get news." He gently set down his glass, his gaze deepening. "Here, you can hear the latest gossip and learn those secrets that are usually hard to access. Plus, you might even meet some unexpected people, adding some variables to our plans."
"Oh?" The first man's interest was clearly piqued. He leaned forward slightly, his eyes gleaming with curiosity. "Did you find anything?"
The second person smiled slightly and said nothing.
