Chapter 671 - 709: The Beautiful Lady’s Invitation
Li Xinyue and Song Lianyao were just about to greet Li Yifei when a woman suddenly interrupted them, and neither of them had any impression of her. With their frequent social engagements throughout the year, aside from some prominent figures, they didn’t usually remember the ones who tagged along. Sunx Lii was just a minor public servant, who they especially didn’t recall.
However, as hosts, even when meeting fans, they wouldn’t put on airs. Since Sunx Lii had introduced herself and mentioned having dined together before, out of politeness, they naturally couldn’t ignore her. They promptly greeted her politely, with Li Xinyue saying, "Oh, it’s you! What a coincidence to see you here again."
Sunx Lii was truly afraid that they wouldn’t remember her, but now that both seemed to recognize her, she felt even more delighted. Glancing over the others at the table, she said to Li Xinyue and Song Lianyao, "Come on, sit here."
As she spoke, Sunx Lii helped Wu Lindong to his feet, signaling for the server to add chairs on her side.
"Thank you!" Li Xinyue and Song Lianyao expressed their thanks, grateful for Sunx Lii’s thoughtfulness. They promptly took their seats without hesitation, with Li Xinyue sitting next to Li Yifei and smilingly saying, "Brother Li, Michelle, what are you doing here? I didn’t see you just now; that was so rude of me."
At this point, Li Xinyue and Song Lianyao could finally greet the two openly and properly.
Li Yifei smiled and said, "Yes, it’s quite a coincidence. I saw you were busy and didn’t greet you."
Song Lianyao leaned in, puckering her lips, and said, "Brother Li, you are really too distant. After all, we are the image ambassadors for your Dreamfly Company, and we usually get along well. By acting this way, aren’t you treating us like we’re not friends?"
Li Yifei chuckled and replied, "How dare I not treat you two prominent hosts as friends? It’s precisely because we are friends that I didn’t want to disturb you while you were busy."
The others at the table were staring at Li Yifei and Michelle like they were aliens, especially focused on Li Yifei. Although he was also a manager, the manager of a department in a company does not, strictly speaking, rank higher than the hosts in terms of social standing. The hosts’ acquaintances were either corporate magnates or high-ranking government officials.
