Shancai Rebirth: My Choice

She was a proud young lady, but for the sake of her good friend, she willingly lowered her noble head.

A good friendship is not half as good as a good love.

Old Mrs. Huo smiled happily, took Nadel's hand and said to them, "Enjoy your meal and have fun. I'll take Huanhuan to meet her grandfather over there. Excuse me." Then she took Nadel and left.

As they walked, Nadel turned around and looked at Shanlai, made an "OK" gesture to her, and told her not to worry.

Shan Lai just watched Mrs. Huo pulling Nadel away. She felt very upset. Nadel had been her friend for many years, and she knew that Nadel hated such occasions the most.

But at this moment, she was powerless...

This feeling is really bad.

"Don't be afraid. Nadel is such a powerful girl that ordinary people can't control her." Xiaoyou comforted Shanlai.

She originally wanted to hug Shanlai, but looking at Senior Lei next to her, she felt a little scared and didn't dare to reach out.

Seeing Xiaoyou's cautious expression, Ximen couldn't help but smile and walked two steps towards her. "It's okay, your senior Lei is not a cannibal." Then he put his hand on her shoulder.

Xiaoyou didn't react and just nodded stupidly.

The smile on Ximen's lips grew wider, and he chuckled and shook his head. What a silly little girl.

Daomingsi ordered a glass of champagne, took a sip, then turned around and looked at his good brothers next to him. The more he looked, the angrier he became.

He became even angrier when he thought about the things they knew but didn't tell him.

"Ximen, Meizuo, you are really my good brothers." Daomingsi stared at the two good brothers viciously, and gradually increased the strength of his hand holding the champagne, as if he wanted to crush the glass.

Ximen and Meizuo turned their heads to the side, pretending not to see Daomingsi's expression.

"Dear guests..."

A deep male voice came from a platform not far away.

Shan Lai looked up and saw the face of the middle-aged man clearly. She knew that he was one of the candidates for chairman, Mrs. Huo's eldest son and Nadel's uncle, Huo Guangwei.

Then came a bunch of polite words.

"Finally, I would like to introduce someone to you."

This is the highlight of today.

"My niece, Huo Huan."

There was applause from the audience, and bursts of whispers.

Then Nadel was led by old lady Huo to the side of Huo Guangwei. She was smiling, but there was no smile in her eyes.

Shan Lai was sweating for her in his heart, fearing that she would turn around and leave in the next second.

But she didn't.

When the introduction was almost over, Mrs. Huo pulled Nadel off the stage.

As soon as she walked down, the group of people next to her seemed to be like cats that smelled blood. They surrounded her and started talking to her.

At this time, Mrs. Huo seemed like a kind old lady, holding Nadel's hand and answering those people's questions one by one.

Shanlai felt very upset. She couldn't bear to see Nadel trapped in such a situation, but she was powerless to do anything. This feeling was really painful.

After looking at Nadel for a long time, she felt the faces of the people around her gradually blurred, the lights gradually dimmed, and a feeling of pain came over her.

The familiar feeling came again, just like the previous two times.

She always felt that there was someone swaying in front of her, but she just couldn't see his face clearly. The more she tried to see it clearly, the blurrier the face became.

Lei noticed her abnormality and quickly reached out to hold her, then called her name, "Shanlai."

Shanlai only felt a buzzing in her ears and could not hear the voices of the people around her clearly, but she could feel someone calling her name.

"Shanlai." Lei called her name again.

Ximen and Meizuo also noticed something was wrong, and quickly retracted their gaze from not far away, looking at her nervously.

Thinking of what happened last time, Ximen was also a little scared, but it seemed that she didn't eat any pastries today.

"Shanlai." Xiaoyou panicked when she saw her appearance and quickly called out again.

Daomingsi watched from the side, not knowing what to do or what to say, so he chose to keep silent.

There was rarely any sarcasm or ridicule, but there was still a hint of worry in his eyes.

Noticing his gaze, Lei looked up and met Daomingsi's eyes. Daomingsi didn't say anything, but silently shifted his gaze elsewhere.

Hanazawa Rui pursed her lips. Why were people always looking at her?

"Shanlai." Lei called again.

"I'm here." Shanlai suddenly woke up, took Lei's hand, and took a deep breath.

What happened to her just now?

Seeing her return to normal, Lei secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hugged her even tighter, as if he was afraid that something might happen to her again.

"I'm fine, I just had a little problem. It might be because I haven't fully recovered from the allergy last time. Don't worry." Shan Lai felt a little guilty. Seeing Lei's worried look, she didn't dare to look him in the eye.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Lei said softly.

Although the sound was small, everyone nearby heard it.

Ximen and Meizuo rubbed their foreheads silently. Is this something they can listen to?

The two of them have been hanging out in various red-light districts for years and have many female companions, but they have never had a girlfriend.

Asi never went there, he was still a pure little boy; as for Lei, I also took him to those places, but he didn't seem to be very interested.

They all knew that Lei had feelings for Jing since childhood, and their affair was witnessed by everyone. They assumed that he would remain a virgin for Jing, and never took him to such places again.

However, after Shanlai appeared, the style of painting gradually deviated, and many things happened that made them feel incredible.

Now, their relationship is widely publicized, which means they are just a random matchmaker.

But today, Jing doesn’t seem to come.

"That's strange, why didn't Jing come today?" Ximen adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked around, but still didn't see Fujido Jing.

"She is packing her luggage. She will go to France in a few days." Lei spoke at this time, but his eyes never left the girl he was supporting.

When Shan Lai heard his words, he was stunned for a second, then asked: "Is Senior Sister Jing going to France? Has the date been set? Why don't I know?"

Seeing her anxious look, Lei didn't have the heart to tell her a lie, "Jing said she was afraid you would cry, so she didn't tell you."

He knew about this a few days ago, and Jing even went to his house to tell him. She originally wanted to tell Shanlai in person.

But after weighing the pros and cons, he was afraid that Shanlai would be caught between Jing and Deng Heruilin, so he decided not to tell her.

Lei originally agreed to her, but just now seeing Shanlai's anxious look, he couldn't bear to hide it from her.

Lei felt that he was not good at lying, especially to her.
