Lu Li blinked and looked at Tang Xi and Qiao Liang who were in formal attire. Qiao Liang secretly smiled and took a look at Lu Li. Lu Li shook his head with a smile. How did this guy come to know he was attending this dinner party?

It was the first time Tang Xi attended a dinner party with Qiao Liang, and also the first time she showed up in public with Qiao Liang, so she was a bit uneasy. At the moment she saw Lu Li and Wen Ning, however, the uneasiness was immediately gone…

Qiao Liang was a celebrity in China. Not only people in City A knew him, people anywhere in China would immediately recognize him as soon as he showed up. Wen Feng surely knew who Qiao Liang was. He blinked and thought, did the Yang Family invite Qiao Liang to this dinner party?

Just when he thought Qiao Liang would pass him and go talk with the Yang Family people, Qiao Liang suddenly stopped in front of him, looked at Lu Li and reached out his hand to Lu Li. “President Lu, I didn’t expect I would meet you here. Are you here for business?”

Wen Feng narrowed his eyes. Qiao Liang took the initiative to greet this man, and called him President Lu? What was his identity?

Lu Li didn’t expect Qiao Liang would do this. He smiled in his heart and cooperatively played along in the drama with Qiao Liang. “Yes, long time no see, President Qiao. I came to City A to purchase some companies.”

Qiao Liang retracted his hand, put his arm around Tang Xi’s slender waist, and smiled at Lu Li as he said, “Long Xiao Group spans so many industries. Do you have to do it yourself even if it’s just the acquisition of several companies?”

Wen Feng immediately straightened up when he heard Long Xiao Group. He didn’t know Lu Li, but he knew well of Long Xiao Group. It was the largest arms dealer in the world, and had almost monopolized the global arms trade. It was engaged in numerous industries. Their influence covered so many fields, you couldn’t name all of them…

Was this young man Long Xiao Group’s president? But he looked so young!

“Oh…” Qiao Liang seriously nodded and continued, “I heard Long Xiao Group donated a shipment of weapons to Chinese government. Did you come here for this matter, President Lu?”

“That’s not a donation. I’m a businessman and won’t support any country unconditionally. Although China is my motherland, I’ll do what I should do, but I’m still going to recover the cost.”

Qiao Liang grunted, took a look at Wen Feng and nodded at Lu Li as he said, “You still gave up a lot of profits. I have something to tend to. I’ll go first. Bye.” With that, he led Tang Xi away, and walked straight to the center of the hall. From the very beginning to the end, he didn’t even look at Wen Feng…

The ignored Wen Feng, “…” This young lad was just as arrogant as people said! Even he, a regiment commander, was given a cold shoulder by him! Sh*t!

Tang Xi and Qiao Liang burst into laughter when they walked far away. Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi and she laughed. “I never thought you would serve as a matchmaker… and… you were so good at acting. Ah Liang, you were so cute.”

Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and pretended to listen to her with all ears. Tang Xi smiled, took his arm and whispered, “I know you’re actually not as cold as the rumors say. You’re willing to do anything for your friend, lover and family, just like the situation just now. No one will expect that you would come upstairs to ask what kind of party this was and ask your men to find an invitation card that has been thrown into the trash bin by you, just to help your friend to regain his lost love.”
