After finishing the phone call with You Zhong, Lin and Xi sat still holding the phone, staring at the ground for a moment.

The words that annoyed the other party were said by himself, and the quarrel with the other party was also provoked by him. Presumably, in the days to come, You Zhong should not contact him again for a long time.

Even if it was You Zhong who easily picked out the delusions buried in his heart, not Lin Hexi himself.But since You Zhong doesn't have that kind of intention towards him, it's the best way to end it as soon as possible.

If it weren't for the kiss last night, he would probably still be able to continue to play dumb in front of You Zhong, and pretend to be stupid in front of his feelings for You Zhong.Until the other party has a girlfriend.

It was You Zhong's kiss that made him unable to escape, and he no longer wanted to continue to escape.

He made countless psychological constructions for himself, and kept telling himself insinuatingly that it was the right choice to quarrel with You Zhong and gradually alienate him.

But he was still bored and restless, and even had the urge to go out and drink in the bar.

It's just that at this point in time, the bars in the university town haven't opened yet.

Lin Hexi could only reluctantly give up and turned on his mobile phone to order takeaway.

The order has not yet been placed, and a new call comes in.

Seeing Mrs. Lin's note on the caller ID, he finally couldn't help it anymore, and stared at the phone screen with a bored look.

Mrs. Lin informed him on the phone that she would return to Lin's house on time tomorrow night to attend Lin Tong's birthday dinner.

The intention of the other party to do this is to play a good image of a qualified loving mother in the eyes of Lin Yuanwei and outsiders.

At this time, she was in a bad mood, and Lin Hexi didn't want to spend any more time with her, so she said indifferently, "I still have class tomorrow night."

Mrs. Lin's voice was still calm, but with a bit of force: "Please come back from leave."

Lin Hexi said: "Recently, it is more difficult to ask for leave."

Mrs. Lin was noncommittal, just smiled lightly, and reminded him in a calm tone: "Have you not been home for a long time, and you forgot who gave you the chance to go to college?"

Lin and Xi didn't speak.

If he continued to talk back, Lin and Xi could guess what the other party said next.

The Lin family can allow him to study in university, and can also handle the procedures for him to drop out of school before he gets his diploma.

Mrs. Lin didn't say anything more after finishing her order, before hanging up the phone, she said, "Don't be late."

The phone quickly returned to the takeaway ordering page. Lin Hexi looked down at the screen with a calm and indifferent face.

He didn't wait until tomorrow night, half an hour later, he packed his things and went back to Lin's house.

Although the International College is not adjacent to the Polytechnic Institute in the headquarters, and the probability of encountering them on the school road is so small that it can be ignored, Lin and Xi decided to take the initiative to reduce this probability to zero.

Go back to Lin's house early to face those people, but stay in school and worry about running into You Zhong.Weighing the pros and cons between the two, Lin and Xi would rather choose the former.

At least within these two days, he didn't want to see You Zhong again.

Lin and Xi walked quickly, so they didn't know that You Zhong had gone downstairs to look for him as soon as he came back.

And he also forgot one thing.

You Zhong will definitely be on the invitation list for Lin Tong's birthday party.

Lin Tong's annual birthday dinner is not only a birthday dinner, but also an important banquet for the Lin family to consolidate and broaden their relationships in the upper circle.

In addition to the dignitaries in the upper class, the people on the invitation list for the banquet also included those classmates with prominent family backgrounds around Lin Tong.

During the whole day, Mrs. Lin was downstairs instructing the servants to set up the banquet hall. People who delivered food and goods came in and out in front of the gate. Lin Tong was downstairs choosing the dress for the dinner. Everyone was so busy that they didn't touch the ground.

And all of this had nothing to do with Lin Hexi who stayed behind closed doors in the bedroom.

After lunch time, someone came upstairs to deliver dresses to Lin and Xi.

As in previous years, the gift from the other party was still the leftover clothes and trousers picked out by Lin Tong, and the size did not fit Lin Hexi's own figure.

After going to college, Lin Hexi grew taller at a particularly fast speed.In previous years, he was not much different from Lin Tong in height, and those dresses that were customized according to Lin Tong's size could still be worn.But in the past two years, he has gradually become much taller than Lin Tong.

Lin Hexi took the dress, turned around and closed the bedroom door, and threw the dress in the corner of the sofa without looking into the sofa again.

There were still several hours before the dinner party, Lin and Xi drew the curtains tightly, lay back on the bed and planned to sleep.

Soon there was another knock on the bedroom door.

Lin Hexi got out of bed to open the door, the aunt who delivered the clothes went and came back, stood outside the door and said to him in a flat tone: "Madam is looking for you."

Accustomed to the attitude of the Lin family, Lin Hexi walked out from the shadow inside the door, closed the bedroom door behind him with his backhand, and raised his eyes calmly, "Let's go."

The driver at home is going to send Lin Tong to do styling, and Lin Hexi will follow.

"There will be important guests at the banquet tonight, and no one in the family can make any mistakes." Mrs. Lin's eyes slowly swept across everyone in the hall, and finally landed on his short tea-brown hair, "Go and dye your hair back black."

Lin and Xi sat in the modeling room until it was dark.

Lin Tong's styling was done, the driver took him back in advance, and told Lin Hexi to take a taxi back to Lin's house after his hair was dyed.

When he went back, it was time to enter Lin Tong's birthday dinner.

All kinds of luxury cars were parked outside the villa, and the taxis shuttled among them seemed out of place.

The Lin family stood in front of the gate with smiling faces to welcome the distinguished guests, and the sound of chatting and laughing could be heard in the wind from afar.

Lin Hexi's sweater and jeans are particularly eye-catching under the night light. Lin Yuanwei glanced at him hurriedly, scowled and scolded in a low voice: "Didn't I tell you not to go out today? Why are you still standing here? Hurry up!" Go upstairs to change clothes, don't go through the main entrance."

The other party didn't even notice the change in his hair color.

Lin Hexi returned to the Lin family villa through the back door, but instead of going upstairs to change, he walked straight into the banquet hall.

Lin Tong, who was accompanying the villa door, had also returned to the banquet hall. Behind him was a young boy about sixteen or seventeen years old who was dressed in a luxurious manner. Cautious and careful.

Lin Hexi knew in his heart that this young master and the people from the other party's family who came to the dinner together were probably the important guests that Mrs. Lin was talking about.

Although he was tired of attending such a banquet, he had no intention of causing trouble in the Lin family, and deliberately stayed away from where Lin Tong and the young master were standing, and sat down in the corner.

Then he saw Lin Tong settle down the young master, and was soon called away by Lin Yuanwei.

Lin and Xi lowered their heads and took out their mobile phones to play. After a while, they heard someone shouting in their direction.

He raised his head, but saw the young master was impatient, beckoning him to go over.

Looking around at the attire of the guests in the banquet hall, knowing that the other party most likely regarded him as a servant, Lin Hexi got up with normal expressions and walked towards the irritable young master.

The other party sat on the seat and waited for him to approach, then pointed to the desserts and drinks in the self-service area at the back and said, "Go and get me some food, and I want red wine too."

Lin Hexi stood still, glanced at his face, and said in a flat voice: "You are not allowed to drink if you are not an adult."

The young master's brows were full of anger, and he yelled at him: "I tell you to take it and you take it. If you say one more word, pack up and leave here now."

Clearly looking at his young age, the appearance of bullying others and using power to overwhelm others has been imitated from his elders.

Without moving their eyebrows, Lin and Xi turned around and walked towards the self-service dessert and drink area, and then delivered him cake and red wine as the other party ordered.

The young master stretched out his hand to hold the goblet, and was about to put the red wine in the glass to his mouth.

Lin Hexi turned to leave, but bumped into a strange young man who was approaching, and Lin Yuanwei, who was smiling and fawning beside the man.

He stopped in time, and the man in front of him had already walked around him quickly, grabbed the wine glass from the young master, and said with a worried face: "Didn't I tell you that you are not allowed to drink secretly?"

The young master was full of resentment, and turned to stare at Lin Hexi who was standing there, and cursed loudly, "He brought me the red wine!"

The man turned his head and glanced at him sharply, with a look of obvious anger on his face.

Meeting the man's eyes, Lin Hexi frowned, and wanted to say something.

Lin Yuanwei next to him had already lowered his face first, and raised his palm to slap him heavily in the face, "You bastard! Who told you to send wine on your own?!"

A sharp slap came close to the face, and before Lin Hexi had time to hide, he was yanked by the back of his collar.

In the next second, his back suddenly slammed into the arms of the person behind him, and his heel stepped heavily on the toe of the person behind him.

But the other party didn't seem to notice it, and even raised his arms around his shoulders, completely bringing him into his territory.

Lin Yuanwei's slap quickly passed over his face, and it missed unexpectedly.

Standing firmly two steps away with Lin Hexi in his arms, You Zhong raised his eyes to look at Lin Yuanwei indifferently, "Uncle Lin, good evening."
