Chapter 1572. It's Here (1)
Qi Lei raised his brows and very knowingly handed his chopsticks to her. “What did Lan Xiu treat you to? You look like you’re the reincarnation of a hungry ghost. I thought you didn’t like noodles.”
She accepted it very uncourteously and ate the fried egg, then returned the chopsticks. “Am I eating noodles right? But to tell the truth, your noodle cooking skills are really getting better and better.”
“Of course! As long I set my mind to learning something, I’ll ace it.” Qi Lei accepted the chopsticks with confidence and continued to eat heartily.
Dongfang Liuyun paused and took over the napkin he handed to wipe her mouth, then she agreed, “I do agree with you. All skills are learned from ground zero, and it’s good to learn more.”
“Mmm? What’s this?” When Dongfang Liuyun tossed the napkin into the bin beside her, her gaze brushed past the table and was attracted by a flash of red. She quickly picked it up.
It was a red invitation.
Qi Lei squinted and swallowed his food before slowly replying, “It’s an invitation from the Jin family. I think it’s an invitation for the young master of the Jin family’s engagement to Dongfang Rouer of the Dongfang family. It’s happening the day after tomorrow,” Qi Lei said quite nonchalantly since he did not have a very meaningful engagement with those people.
Usually, he would occasionally bump into them at large-scale business event banquets, so when they sent the invitation, Yang Sheng was surprised too. However, when he thought about the recent South River Project, he seemed to have understood something.
As Dongfang Liuyun fixed her eyes on the invitation in hand, her eyes started to darken. Her gaze flickered, and Qi Lei could sense something out of the ordinary. He looked at her from the side and quickly caught her reaction.
