blind circle

Chapter 42

"Dong dong dong," the old butler held his head high, straightened his body and knocked on the door three times, showing the courtesy that a noble butler should have.

After a while, the door was opened, and the person who opened it was Zhan Yinglian, "Thank you for coming so far, your arrival makes the humble house full of glory."

After Zhan Yinglian opened his arms and warmly embraced Li Shengfeng, his gaze shifted to Ji Liang.

Ji Liang turned his body slightly, deliberately distanced himself from him.

Zhan Yinglian smiled awkwardly, and looked at Shu Xin again, Ji Liang immediately stood sideways in front of Shu Xin, covering Zhan Yinglian's intent eyes with his height.

Zhan Yinglian's smile froze on his face for a moment, and he laughed at himself, "Lisa and I have prepared some appetizers and desserts, please show your respect."

At this time, Lisa was holding the handrail of the stairs with one hand, and with the other hand on her waist, she slowly walked down the revolving stairs.She was wearing a rose red velvet dress, with a string of pearl necklaces on her slender white swan neck, her graceful and luxurious temperament was as usual.

Lisa raised her chin and nodded slightly to the crowd. She was both generous and decent while maintaining a moderate sense of alienation from the crowd.

Zhan Yinglian snapped his fingers at the butler, and after a while, the old butler led several maidservants to orderly serve a series of desserts on a square dining table that could accommodate ten people.

Zhan Ying was sitting on a square velvet sofa chair with his legs crossed, showing a gentlemanly smile, "Please wait a moment, Mr. Fair hasn't come yet."

Li Shengfeng raised his hand to look at his watch, and said with a smile, "Fair has never had a sense of time, but there is another person, he is always strict and never late, why is he so late?"

Ji Liang lowered his eyes, a bad premonition rose in his heart, could it be that the person Li Shengfeng was talking about was Hua Chen?

If it was Hua Chen, the current situation would become extremely complicated, maybe Li Shengfeng couldn't hold back and was ready to make a move?

It's too late, it's too soon.

There was a knock on the door, and the moment the butler opened the door, Ji Liang's heart rose to his throat. His five fingers subconsciously clasped the armrest of the seat, but his face remained motionless, and he didn't even dare to look in the direction of the door. look.

The person who came was indeed Phil, but Hua Chen did not come.

However, what surprised Ji Liang the most was that Shunzi and Mira followed behind Fei Er!

Shu Xin also held his breath, why did Shunzi suddenly appear here?

There was a hint of regret in Li Shengfeng's smile, but he still stepped forward and hugged Fei Er warmly.

There was no expression on Shunzi's face. He was still in a suit and leather shoes today, and he had lost his usual hippie smile and cynical appearance. He looked very much like a Chinese who had lived in the United States all year round.

The three of them remained motionless, and none of them dared to breathe heavily.

The air froze at this moment, only the laughter of Feier chatting with Li Shengfeng, and the footsteps of the maids coming and going back and forth with the dinner plates remained.

"Who are these two?" Li Shengfeng looked at Shunzi and Mira.

Before Fair could open his mouth, Shunzi introduced himself, "I am Mr. Hua Chen's special assistant." He took Milan's arm beside him and smiled slightly, "This is my fiancee."

"It's a pleasure to meet you!" Li Shengfeng sneered, "Mr. Hua didn't come by himself, but sent an assistant to perfuse us?"

"Mr. Hua has some important work to do, so he'll be here later." Shunzi's tone was neither humble nor overbearing, he never looked at Li Shengfeng directly, and then sat directly opposite Ji Liang and Shu Xin, but his eyes did not fall on them.

The dining table is covered with local British desserts, scones, baked apple crisps, maple syrup pudding, carrot cake, cream trifle, and five bottles of Conmandy 1855.

The maids withdrew one after another, and the butler brought several musicians in tuxedos with musical instruments in their hands. Lisa walked gracefully to the piano, and Xin's long fingers danced on the keys, complementing the sound of playing the violin.

Zhan Yinglian held up his wine glass and saluted everyone for coming.

After a while, with the sound of melodious music, Shu Xin's tense nerves along the way finally relaxed a little. He took a piece of cream cake and cut it into small pieces, and tasted it lightly.

Ji Liang sat aside, took a sip of wine, lit a cigar, the aroma of tobacco filled his mouth and nose, and exhaled a smoke ring.

"Thank you, could you please dance with me?" Mira came to Ji Liang's side with a charming smile while wearing a sexy red dress.

Ji Liang flicked the ash into the crystal ashtray and aimed at Shu Xin from the corner of his eye, "Then you have to ask my wife's wishes first."

Shu Xin swallowed the cake in his mouth and spread his hands.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, Shunzi walked towards Shu Xin, bowed gentlemanly, and extended his right hand to Shu Xin, "Handsome Mrs. Xie, can you do me a favor?"

Shu Xin thought it was a little funny, but he didn't show a half smile.He looked at Ji Liang and Mira who were walking towards the center of the living room, so he generously extended his hand and took Shunzi's hand.

The style of music changed, and it turned into an affectionate "Unchained Melody", Lisa's authentic British accent accompanied by the sound of the piano.

Shu Xin took advantage of the moment when Li Shengfeng was talking with Fei Er, and made a lip-synch to Shunzi, "I can't dance!"

Shunzi smiled slyly, interlocked Shu Xin's ten fingers with his right hand, and tightened his left hand when it was around Shu Xin's waist, letting Shu Xin's body stick to his body, "Follow my steps."

Shu Xin felt a little embarrassed, he took a peek at Ji Liang, and as expected, Ji Liang's face was covered with dark clouds, and several thorns shot out from his eyes, piercing Shunzi's back.

Shun Ziquan pretended not to notice, he stepped back with his left foot, and led Shu Xin's body forward, "Long time no see, Mrs. Ji!"

Shu Xin was a little speechless, he gently drew a question mark on Shunzi's waist with his left index finger.

On the other side, Ji Liang suddenly felt green shoots sprouting from his head, he wished he could greet Shunzi's family again!

Ji Liang lowered his head and whispered into Mira's ear, "When is Hua Chen coming?"

Shunzi hugged Shu Xin's waist, turned around in a circle, and whispered in Shu Xin's ear, "Hua Chen didn't ask us to come, we received a message from Li Jiahua to protect you!"

Ji Liang raised Mira's hand; Mira made a perfect turn under the arms of the two, and then got close to Ji Liang's body, "Someone is going to attack Hua Chen tonight!"

"Who is it?" Shu Xin gestured to Shunzi.

Shunzi immediately hugged Shu Xin, leaning against Shu Xin's left cheek, "Master in black."

Shunzi was stuck too tight, Shu Xin pushed Shunzi with his hands, but Shunzi not only did not let go, but also stuck his forehead to Shuxin's.

Shunzi blinked her right eye playfully, and regained her previous viciousness, "Don't worry, Huachen's life or death has nothing to do with me, I will do my best to protect you and Liangzi!"

On the other side, Fair held a cigar between his fingertips, looking a little impatient.

Usually, he went to find Li Shengfeng to meet him at the villa, but this time Li Shengfeng suddenly wanted to show his feet for some reason, so he even asked himself out on this island, and even invited Hua Chen?

Feier was also afraid of Li Shengfeng in his heart.Li Shengfeng was too sinister, just like Hua Chen, their thoughts were too deep.

Hua Chen helped himself to reach the highest point in the family many years ago, but he was not out of the morality of his friends, but out of the exchange of interests.

Fair recalled those times with Hua Chen in his mind again. He regarded him as the most cherished friend in college, but Hua Chen regarded himself as a pawn.

Fell's eyes gleamed with hatred in their rims.

He is Xiaosan's child, and his mother is just a plaything of his father. He grew up under the bullying of his brothers and sisters, and even his father regards him as a waste.

The most important thing in his life is feelings. He once thought that Hua Chen was the most precious person in his life!

Li Shengfeng seemed to see what Fei Er was thinking, and raised his wine glass to Fei Er who was opposite him, "If you have wine today, you will be drunk today."

Feier was a little annoyed, he gritted his teeth and whispered, "Why did you ask me to come here!"

"Isn't this more interesting? Hua Chen is already declaring war on us, why don't we give him some introductions, so that our contest will be more interesting." Li Shengfeng ignored Fair and started to drink.

Fair sneered, blurted out some swear words, and handed the phone in front of Li Shengfeng, "This is the recent stock market, and I have already clearly felt that the stock of our newly established Red Oak Company has increased slightly recently, which is not good. Phenomenon."

Li Shengfeng still didn't change his face, "You finally have a little manager's sensitivity. As your teacher, I'm very pleased."

Fair shrugged: "Thanks to your guidance, but our recent actions have been discovered! Hua Chen is already reducing my manpower. At least in the current situation, we are very passive!"

Li Shengfeng still maintained a calm smile: "That's not necessarily the case, you don't need to think so. But if it's not the last moment, who will win is still a suspense!"

"Besides, Hua Chen won't survive tonight!"

At this moment, the old butler walked calmly and whispered into Zhan Yinglian's ear, "Hua Chen's speedboat has docked."

A deeper layer of gloom and anxiety floated in Fer's eyes.

Li Shengfeng stood up from his seat unhurriedly, "It's just in time, Zhan, can we start the dinner party?"

Zhan Yinglian waved to the musicians, and the music stopped abruptly. The maids rushed from outside the house and removed the desserts from the table. The tablecloth was re-spread on the dining table.

The dumb servant with burns on his face hung newspapers that had just been flattened with an iron on his elbows, walked to the dining table, and carefully placed the "Global Finance Weekly" in his hand in front of each seat.

At this time, the door was opened, and Hua Chen's stern face was filled with deep apology, "Sorry everyone, the heavy rain blocked my steps."

He shook the long-handled black umbrella outside the door, then put it away, and hung it on his forearm.

When Fair saw Hua Chen, he leaned back subconsciously, but Li Shengfeng didn't hold back at all, and greeted him loudly, "It's a pleasure to meet you. I have long admired you, Tom Servi."

Hua Chen nodded and responded with a smile.

Zhan Ying even raised his voice: "Now that we are all here, we can start!"

Before the meal, Zhan Yinglian led everyone to pray before the meal: "Please have mercy on us, cleanse us of our sins, and forgive our transgressions; in your name, visit and heal our sickness and infirmity. You are holy, always so, From this day to eternity, ages to eternity, Amen."
