He is like a needle for calming the sea, as long as he is there, people will feel full of security, as if there is nothing to worry about.

"When I come back, I have something for you."

After speaking, Li Xiaoyao hung up the phone.

"Is there something for me?" Zhao Lingmeng's heart suddenly beat a little fast.

Is he going to give me a present?

Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for a week, Li Xiaoyao even prepared a gift for himself.

With a little tension and a little expectation, Zhao Lingmeng finally looked forward to getting off work.

She and Tian Tian drove home together, and Li Xiaoyao was already waiting for them in the living room.

"Ah! Consultant Li, you're back!" Seeing Li Xiaoyao suddenly, Tian Tian cried out in surprise, "I haven't seen you for a week. Where did you go?"

Li Xiaoyao smiled but didn't answer, he just looked at Zhao Lingmeng playfully: "Miss, it seems it's not time to get off work yet?"

He had never seen Zhao Lingmeng come back so early.

Is it because of him today...

"Say... what are you talking about!" Hearing this, Zhao Lingmeng blushed immediately, and said a little at a loss, "I'm tired today, so I want to leave work early, can't I?"

In fact, this is the normal off-duty time, but because Zhao Lingmeng is usually busy, she has never tried to leave work so early.

Even she herself didn't understand why she wanted to come back earlier today.

Anyway... definitely not because of Li Xiaoyao!
Seeing the two flirting, Tian Tian shrank her neck immediately.

She didn't want to be a light bulb. After changing her shoes, she hurried to the kitchen: "I...I'll cook first."

"Wait!"

Li Xiaoyao stopped her suddenly: "I have something for you."

"Is there something for me?" Tian Tian looked at Li Xiaoyao in surprise.

"This is it."

Li Xiaoyao took out two jade pendants and handed them to Tian Tian and Zhao Lingmeng respectively: "This is a high-grade magic weapon that I spent a lot of effort refining in this week."

"A Magical Artifact? What is this?" Tian Tian rubbed the jade pendant in her hand, only feeling that the jade pendant was cold and comfortable to the touch, "I heard you say so mysterious, what is the use of this magic weapon?"

"There are many more functions. It can not only preserve health, but also cultivate spirit. After wearing it for a long time, you will find that your skin has become better." Li Xiaoyao said seriously.

"Really?"

Hearing that it can make the skin better, no woman can refuse such a temptation.

Tian Tian was relatively simple, she put away the jade pendant almost without doubt, and smiled sweetly at Li Xiaoyao: "Thank you, Consultant Li!"

"Really, do you still refine this kind of thing?"

Zhao Lingmeng looked at Li Xiaoyao suspiciously.

Although she didn't really believe Li Xiaoyao's words, at least the jade pendant felt refreshing to the touch.

"But, don't I already have a jade pendant?"

"Your piece is useless, you can wear mine from now on." Li Xiaoyao said lightly.

"Useless?"

"Last time you said that my jade is alive and Xiaoxuan's jade is dead."

Zhao Lingmeng couldn't help retorting.

"The last time belongs to the last time, and now it is different from the past." Li Xiaoyao didn't bother to explain so much, "If you let you wear it, you can wear it, and I will harm you?"

"I don't know how many people want the magic weapon I made by myself, but they don't even have a place to ask to see me. It's better for you to ask questions."

"Cut!" Zhao Lingmeng stuck out her little tongue at Li Xiaoyao. Although she looked very reluctant, she put the jade pendant away honestly.

"It turns out that this is what he wanted to give me."

Such a thought suddenly crossed Zhao Lingmeng's mind.

She didn't know what she was struggling with, but she felt that the emotions in her heart were inexplicably complicated.

"Oh, right!"

At this moment, Zhao Lingmeng seemed to have thought of something, she suddenly opened her handbag and took out a white envelope from it.

"This is what I received today, you can take a look too."

"What?" Li Xiaoyao took the envelope from Zhao Lingmeng's hand, and he found that the envelope had been opened.

Opening the envelope, there was a flat invitation card inside.

"Ma Fengzhong's birthday banquet?"

"Invite us over there?"

Li Xiaoyao looked at the content on the invitation, and couldn't help showing a sneer on his face.

Is the Ma family finally going to move?
He didn't think that the Ma family, who had been feuding with them for a long time, would be so kind as to invite them to a banquet so that they could smile away their grievances.

I'm afraid this birthday banquet is a Hongmen banquet!
What Li Xiaoyao didn't expect was that this time, Ma Fengzhong, the former head of the Ma family, would be alarmed.

Ma Tianwen didn't take action for a long time, could it be that he was preparing for this?

"You're surprised too, aren't you?"

Zhao Lingmeng sighed: "I also only received it when I was about to get off work. I really don't understand why the Ma family suddenly invited us to a banquet."

"Obviously we've been at odds, and now it's like we're VIPs."

"Don't think too much about it." Li Xiaoyao shook his head, "Inviting us to a banquet doesn't mean he's showing his favor to us."

"In my opinion, this is probably a Hongmen banquet!"

"The Ma family is trying to scare the chickens and the monkeys, and openly attack us!"

Li Xiaoyao couldn't help but think of what Gao Ge said.

Back then, Haoying's Sun Fucai killed Gao Ge's parents in the name of a banquet, and also took away Gao's Fenghe security company.

Sun Fucai was originally a subordinate of the Ma family, so he must have received the support of the Ma family when he attacked the Gao family.

And now the Ma family obviously wants to do this kind of thing!

"what?"

Hearing this, Zhao Lingmeng's expression changed drastically: "Then what should we do? Shouldn't we go?"

It would be inappropriate not to go, after all, the Ma family can also use this excuse to attack the Zhao family in a legitimate manner.

And they avoided going, so why not show weakness to the Ma family?

"Go! Of course you have to go, why not go?"

Li Xiaoyao smiled, but there was a frightening coldness in his eyes: "Since they invited us over, wouldn't we be wasting this great opportunity if we don't go?"

"Not only are we going, but we also want to make a big fuss at the Ma family's birthday banquet, and let the Ma family kill themselves!"

"Don't worry, the Ma family can't eat us yet!"

With that said, Li Xiaoyao stood up and was about to go outside.

"Where are you going?" Zhao Lingmeng looked at Li Xiaoyao in surprise.

"Since we are going to a banquet tomorrow, we can't go empty-handed, right? That would be too impolite."

Li Xiaoyao smiled: "I'll go to Xiao Wanshan to prepare a big gift for the Ma family."

"What are you going to give?" Zhao Lingmeng really couldn't figure out Li Xiaoyao's actions.

"Don't worry about that."

Li Xiaoyao blinked mysteriously at Zhao Lingmeng.
