Shancai Rebirth: My Choice
Chapter 98 Don't worry, I'm here
Lei took his slippers and asked Shanlai to change into them. When Shanlai put her feet in them, she looked at the slippers that were twice as big as her feet and fell into deep thought.
She made eye contact with Lei and suddenly started laughing, laughing so hard that her whole body was shaking.
Why is he so stupid?
"It doesn't matter if you don't wear shoes." Seeing her laughing so happily, Lei laughed too.
If she is happy, then he is happy too.
Shanlai was about to answer him when he hugged her again without her noticing.
"Let's eat first." Then he carried her downstairs.
The restaurant was empty.
The two chatted and laughed while finishing their dinner.
At Shanlai's repeated insistence, she went to the guest room.
……
The next day, Shanlai was awakened by a ringing cell phone.
I glanced at the phone screen dazedly, "Xiaoyou."
Xiaoyou looked at the invitation in her hand and felt it was a little hot. The time printed on it was tomorrow evening.
"Shanlai, a man who claimed to be Butler Huo came to the flower shop early this morning and handed me an invitation." Xiaoyou was almost crying.
What is all this?
The Huo family, that’s the Huo family.
They were not an ordinary family. They actually gave an invitation to an ordinary little girl like her, and it was delivered personally by their housekeeper.
She didn't know what to do for a moment, so she had to call Shan Lai.
When Shan Lai heard her words, he sat up from the bed and said, "What? Don't panic, I'm here."
"You are in the flower shop now, right?"
"Yeah." Xiaoyou answered with a strong nasal tone.
After comforting Xiaoyou for a few words, Shanlai hung up the phone and leaned against the head of the bed.
Why did the Huo family send an invitation to Xiaoyou for the banquet?
If Xiaoyou doesn't go, I'm afraid that Mrs. Huo, who is not a good person, will not let her go.
Just as she was thinking about this, Nadel called her. "My dear, my grandma sent an invitation to Xiaoyou. Let's take her to pick out two dresses." Her voice was a little hoarse, and sounded a little tired when you listened carefully.
Shan Lai keenly noticed her change, "Nadel, how are you? Where are you now? Were you at Huo's house last night?"
Nadel rubbed his brows tiredly, stood by the French window, stretched out his hand to pull open the curtains and looked out the window, "I was at the Huo's house last night, and I heard that my two cousins came back from abroad overnight. I can't get away from the Huo's affairs this time."
What she said was already very obscure, but Shan Lai still understood what she meant, which was that this time the Huo family's election would undergo a huge change because of Nadel.
"Okay, I'll go find Xiaoyou right away." After a pause, Shan Lai asked her tentatively, "Do you need me to pick you up?"
Nadel's hand holding the phone trembled a little, "No, I'll come to you later."
The two talked for a few more words, and then someone seemed to knock on Nadel's door, and she quickly hung up the phone.
Shanlai finished washing up as quickly as possible, then opened the door, and the classroom was right at the door.
Seeing her coming out in a panic, Lei was a little puzzled, "Why are you in a hurry so early in the morning?" Then he naturally took her hand and walked downstairs.
She was panicking at first, but the moment Lei took her hand, she calmed down inexplicably, "Xiaoyou over there."
"Have breakfast first. We can talk after breakfast if you have anything to say." Then he led her to a chair.
Shan Lai couldn't refuse, so she could only finish her breakfast quickly and then look at him.
Looking at her eyes, Lei knew what she wanted to say and took a sip of coffee slowly. "The Huo family sent an invitation. They will hold a banquet at 7 o'clock tomorrow night."
"Nadel is the protagonist of this party. This party is held for her." Lei saw it very clearly.
Although he doesn't like to talk much, he knows a lot.
This election of the chairman is of vital importance to the Huo family, as it is related to whether their position in this upper-class circle is stable.
Shan Lai certainly knew that this banquet was not that simple, but it was the first time she heard Lei say these words to her.
She used to think Lei was very gentle and considerate, but it seemed that there were many things about him that she didn't know, such as his clear and rational views on some things.
"Watch what I do?"
"Do you think I know nothing?" Lei turned around and looked at her, reaching out to rub her head.
Shanlai shook her head, she didn't think so.
Although Lei is very gentle, he is definitely not the kind of rich boy who turns a deaf ear to what is happening outside. On the contrary, he knows everything very well, but he just watches it all.
Only when it is absolutely necessary will you say the necessary words.
He is gentle and sensible.
"Okay, I'll take you home." Lei said to her and gently led her out.
Shan Lai kept looking at him as he pulled her out.
When Lei sent her to the bottom of the apartment building, Shanlai was still a little unresponsive. She was still thinking about Nadel.
He called her several times but she ignored him, so he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her.
"Ah?" Shan Lai reacted suddenly.
"What are you thinking about? So entranced?"
Shan Lai sighed and told him about Xiaoyou calling her this morning. "Xiaoyou is just a young girl who has not experienced much of the world. She shouldn't have gotten involved."
Lei listened to her very seriously and patiently. "This is not a question of whether you are inexperienced or not, but a question of Mrs. Huo's cognition. Xiaoyou was there when she came to see you. She invited Xiaoyou to the banquet, perhaps for Nadel."
"Although there are some family interests involved in this matter, Mrs. Huo's action may be just because of the little affection she has left for Nadel." Lei analyzed the pros and cons of the banquet to Shanlai.
She nodded.
may be.
What is coming cannot be avoided, and she will do her best to protect her friends. She believes she has the ability to do so.
Nadel came to country K just for her, and was inexplicably involved in the interests of these damn big families.
If she hadn't come back from Country M, there wouldn't have been so many things happening, and Old Lady Huo wouldn't have used her name to hold that so-called banquet.
The people in the Huo family may not regard Nadel as a family member. They just want the benefits she can bring. Nadel is such a good girl and she should not be bullied by that group of people.
Nadel only knows her in Country K, so how could she allow those people to bully Nadel?
"Don't worry, I'm here." Lei looked at her with a smile and kissed her forehead.
When Shanlai saw his smile, she was immediately healed by him. He was really gentle.
