Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 850 - 767: A Small Gathering

It’s none other than Leng Ning who has just changed into a new outfit, followed by the handsome Jin Yichen.

Li Si glared at Leng Mochen before smiling and greeting them, "Yichen, you’re here! Is Mr. Jin coming over?"

Jin Yichen glanced at Li Si and Leng Mochen, then smiled, "I came first, the old man will be here shortly!"

Leng Ning noticed Li Si’s slight discomfort and joked with Jin Yichen as they approached, "I say, bro, sis-in-law, what are you two doing behind closed doors? We didn’t interrupt anything, did we?"

Earlier, when she dragged Jin Yichen to the banquet hall, she was curious, everything was well-prepared, shouldn’t the door be open to welcome guests? Why close it?

Apparently, some people want to have a private chat and enjoy some intimate moments together!

Li Si laughed and chided her, "Xiao Ning! What nonsense are you talking about?"

Unexpectedly, Leng Mochen suddenly looked at Leng Ning and said seriously, "What will you do if we say you interrupted?"

Leng Mochen rarely cooperates like this, which made Li Si pull down his sleeve in resentment, her gaze unspoken, like asking what the heck is he doing!

Leng Ning was also surprised, widening her eyes, then smiling amusedly, "Bro, you and sis-in-law are old-married couple, yet still playing sweet, really..."

She was at a loss for words to express it! Jin Yichen suppressed his laughter, looking at Li Si and Leng Mochen.

"Don’t listen to your brother; he’s just joking!"

Li Si rolled her eyes at Leng Mochen after speaking, thinking of tidying up this mess when they got home tonight.

But Leng Mochen remained unfazed, even with a mischievous look in his eyes as if implying he was waiting to see what she’d do, making her both angry and amused...

The banquet began, and guests arrived one after another. Although it was a small gathering, quite a few people showed up.

Originally, five tables were prepared, but evidently, it was not enough for the number of guests; a few more tables needed to be added.

Ouyang Yan and Leng Qiankai welcomed the guests while Li Si busied herself with arrangements. As she turned around, the Long Family had arrived.

Besides Long Wu and his father, even Long Wu’s grandfather showed up!

This old man was like a mythical dragon, seldom seen; Li Si had hardly met him twice in all this time.

"Uncle Long! Grandpa Long, hello!" Li Si greeted them politely with a smile.

Mr. Long smiled back, and Grandpa Long said kindly, "Old Leng’s birthday gets you youngsters working hard! It’s tough for you!"

"Not tough at all! Grandpa Long, your seat is over there; I’ll take you and Uncle Long over!"

Grandpa Long waved his hand with a smile, "No need! Child, you go do your thing! We’ll go over ourselves!"

"Alright then!" Li Si didn’t insist much, because those present today were all relatively close people.

As Long Wu passed by Li Si, he mischievously winked at her, "Sisi, great performance today! Even my grandpa was charmed and thrilled!"

Li Si didn’t bother to disguise herself with him, directly asking, "How come your Meng Meng didn’t make it?"

Long Wu smirked, looked around, and whispered, "Your grandpa hinted not to bring any ladies among the guests!"

Li Si immediately thought of many things but maintained her expression, "Then, Brother Wu, take your seat; I have to go and attend to things!"

She truly didn’t know grandpa’s birthday came with such hints.

"Alright! After all, I’m not an outsider! Oh, where’s your Leng Er? Haven’t seen him around!"

Long Wu searched back and forth with his gaze in the banquet hall. He had been here for a while but hadn’t spotted Leng Er yet.

"He’s accompanying grandpa; you’ll see him shortly!"

Long Wu nodded, "Good! Xu Er isn’t here either!"

Li Si smiled, "Xu Er will probably be here soon! Brother Wu, go wait for him!"

Since grandpa hinted, Bai Shasha definitely won’t be attending either!

Li Si continued to shuttle through the banquet hall, and soon saw Xu Er accompanying Mr. Xu arriving together.

In front of his father, Xu Er wasn’t like Long Wu; he merely greeted Li Si warmly without saying much.

Among the guests, Li Si spotted Zheng Zelin accompanying Mr. Zheng Sr., but she hadn’t had much interaction with Zheng Zelin.

She only had a deep impression of his daughter Zheng Huanxue. Given today’s hint that ladies weren’t allowed to attend, naturally Mrs. Zheng and Zheng Huanxue weren’t present.

As for Qiao An, perhaps due to being the son-in-law or not qualifying, he wasn’t present either.

Soon, the banquet hall was bustling with guests, chatting in low voices and creating a lively atmosphere.

Li Si then spotted familiar faces among the guests, it was Yan Xuefeng supporting Mr. Yan Sr. as he walked slowly in.

Both of their expressions visibly showed discomfort, and Li Si quickly understood why. Yan Xuefeng’s arrival surely didn’t please Ouyang Yan at the entrance.

However, considering Mr. Yan’s presence, she would likely be polite enough not to say anything overly harsh.

Ouyang Yan had repeatedly brought up Yan Xuefeng disrupting Leng Ning’s engagement banquet, holding a grudge over it.

At an occasion like today, the Yan Family showing up must have stirred some thoughts in Ouyang Yan.

Li Si didn’t wish to face the Yan father and son, as their relationship was too complicated.

Just as she thought about it, the older-looking Yan Xuefeng glanced at Li Si, his expression downcast, then turned to speak with Mr. Yan.

Li Si pursed her lips lightly, luckily she didn’t want to greet him.

Even knowing from Tian Yaruo’s mouth that Leng Mochen had pressured Yan Xuefeng’s business, she couldn’t dispel her aversion towards him.

Though, judging by Yan Xuefeng’s haggard appearance, it seemed Leng Mochen’s pressure wasn’t small.

At this moment, Elder Leng, accompanied by Leng Qianhan and Leng Mochen, strode energetically into the banquet hall in a red Tang suit, leaning on his cane.

Everyone was smiling, congratulating and wishing him longevity, making the scene exceptionally lively.

Elder Leng usually had a stern face, but today he showed a rare faint smile, standing at the main table and waving to the crowd, "You are all too kind! Just gathering to celebrate me on my birthday, let’s not talk business and just enjoy drinking and dining!"

"Good, good!"

Everyone took their seats, and Li Si noticed Elder Leng scanning the room before finally sitting down.

At the main table, besides Elder Leng, Leng Mochen, Leng Qianhan, and Leng Qiankai, there were also several senior figures like Mr. Long Sr., Mr. Zheng Sr., and Mr. Yan Sr. The remaining elderly figure with silver hair, Li Si didn’t recognize.

However, judging from the aura, he was certainly no ordinary person.

Looking around the banquet hall, only Li Si, with Ouyang Yan, Leng Ning, and Leng Mo at her table, had some women present; everywhere else were men.

Everyone was jovially chatting and laughing, as men, it was necessary to drink and converse when gathering.

Ouyang Yan glanced towards the main table, then at the nearby table where Yan Xuefeng was quietly eating, sneering before pulling Li Si beside her.

"Sisi!"

Li Si was lost in thought; today’s scene was peculiar, with only the Leng Family women at their table. What exactly was Elder Leng planning?

She turned her head quietly when Mrs. Leng gently tugged her sleeve, "What’s up, Mom?"
