Chapter 641 - 631: A New Target for Seduction?
Chapter 641: Chapter 631: A New Target for Seduction?
"Lingxi, I’m going to grab something to eat. Do you want anything?"
After dancing a bit, Wei Minmin felt she needed to replenish her energy.
Jiang Lingxi didn’t hold back, "That blueberry cake."
"OK!"
"Three pieces."
"...No problem."
At worst, she’d just bring them over on a tray.
But after Wei Minmin picked out what she wanted to eat and brought the little cakes Lingxi wanted over with a tray, she noticed someone had taken her seat.
"Who is it that doesn’t know this seat is..."
The words ’occupied’ got stuck in her throat as the person turned to look at her.
"Second, Second Young Master?"
Aibosi Kevin gave Wei Minmin a gentle smile, his voice smooth and courteous, his Mandarin just as magnetic and fluent, "I would like to have a few words with this young lady. Could this beautiful lady kindly take another seat?"
Wei Minmin strongly suspected this person’s Mandarin was practiced with his girlfriends from Hua State, but she still looked to Jiang Lingxi. What did it matter if this was the Aibosi family’s second young master? She took her cues from Lingxi.
"Lingxi..."
"Minmin, go sit nearby and eat. Don’t eat my little cakes."
"Ah, oh oh!"
Watching Wei Minmin wisely leave, Kevin turned his attention to Jiang Lingxi sitting across from him. Some people are charming but only from a distance. However, this person in front of him was not only charming but also more beautiful than any of his ex-girlfriends.
Truly a stunning beauty!
"Miss Jiang..."
Jiang Lingxi directly interrupted him, "Mr. Aibosi, at this welcome dance you invited, is there anyone named Wu Hua?"
She suspected Wu Hua wasn’t even using an invitation to get in, so how did he come in?
This was why she watched him sit down instead of driving him away like the others.
"Wu Hua?" This unexpected question even made Kevin pause for two solid seconds, "Miss Jiang’s curiosity really catches me off guard. Is this Wu Hua a friend of yours?"
Jiang Lingxi observed his reaction to the name ’Wu Hua.’
She had suspected that Wu Hua might have connections with the Aibosi family.
After all, the welcome dance’s security was quite strict, yet Wu Hua confidently appeared before her eyes.
But seeing the second young master’s subconscious reaction, he probably hadn’t heard of the name Wu Hua.
Though it’s possible that Wu Hua isn’t using his real name here and has taken another alias.
Since this person approached, she decided to take advantage and ask.
"Mr. Aibosi, just say yes or no."
Kevin: "..."
The last person to speak so rudely to him was his sister’s college friend!
But facing this face, he felt he could endure it.
"There are many guests invited. I need to check."
Jiang Lingxi nodded, her eyes urging him.
Kevin: "..."
How had he suddenly become someone who takes orders?
But since he had agreed, and he wasn’t one to go back on his word, he took out his phone and called the person in charge, "Check if there’s a guest named Wu Hua today."
Jiang Lingxi added, "A woman."
"Yes, a woman."
The person on the other end replied they’d check and call back, so Kevin hung up, "They’re checking, so meanwhile, let’s..."
Jiang Lingxi waved to Wei Minmin, who was focused on eating, and she passed over a piece of the small cake and a dessert fork.
Time to eat.
No talking while eating.
Kevin, once again tuned out: "..."
Watching a beauty eat is pleasing to the eye, but isn’t she paying too little attention to him?
He hadn’t had anyone sit in front of him and focus only on eating!
As the host of the dance, the second young master of the Aibosi family attracted a lot of attention.
Quite a few people noticed how he not only left his ex-girlfriend but also his current girlfriend, straying away from the central dance floor to sit in a corner with a beautiful unfamiliar girl.
Is this his new conquest?
"This second young master really doesn’t hide his playboy ways!"
"His taste hasn’t changed. This girl may be unfamiliar, but she’s definitely beautiful and poised. No wonder she caught his eye even from a corner."
"I recognize her. I think she’s called Jiang Lingxi. Recently, Cloud announced a new brand ambassador — it’s this girl, and she’s staying at Chongxiao Pavilion."
"Though just the brand ambassador for Cloud, staying at Chongxiao Pavilion isn’t much. But if she really becomes the second young master’s girlfriend, her status will skyrocket."
Gu Qiantong was also at the dance.
But today, she couldn’t focus on targeting Jiang Lingxi. First, because Jiang Lingxi was too low-key, she didn’t mingle at all. Secondly, after multiple setbacks with Jiang Lingxi, even if she didn’t want to admit it, it left her somewhat apprehensive.
She was here today mainly to mend her relationship with Vini.
After they parted yesterday, she hadn’t heard from Vini or received any message about reconciliation before the welcome dance started, making her anxious.
She couldn’t afford to lose this connection, especially while still on their turf.
When she saw the playboy Aibosi Kevin showing interest in Jiang Lingxi, if it weren’t for Vini being next to her, she might have laughed aloud.
Other women might envy or be jealous that it wasn’t them being noticed by the second young master of the Aibosi family. Still, she felt no envy, even delighted.
She sincerely wished Aibosi Kevin would succeed in wooing Jiang Lingxi.
She didn’t believe that by then, Shen Yunqing would still cling to Jiang Lingxi.
"That cheeky Kevin!"
Gu Qiantong held back from snapping a picture, shifting her gaze back to her frowning friend and teasing with a smile, "Looks like Kevin has a new target."
Vini usually didn’t care about her brother’s girlfriends changing as often as his clothes, but this time she showed clear disapproval: "He can’t handle Miss Jiang. She’s different from his previous girlfriends."
Gu Qiantong’s smile faltered but resisted the urge to argue back, indirectly saying, "You’re underestimating Kevin’s charm and the Aibosi name too much. Together, it’s a temptation no woman can resist. Look, aren’t they just..."
The words ’having a lively conversation’ got stuck in her throat as she saw Jiang Lingxi eating cake right in front of Kevin.
What’s happening now?
Others watching Jiang Lingxi’s move: "..."
Could the second young master want to watch a mukbang?
After all, Miss Jiang seemed to be enjoying her food, paying no mind to the second young master sitting before her.
She was making everyone hungry!
Vini smiled and remarked, "Seems that little cake is more important to Miss Jiang than Cavina."
Gu Qiantong’s expression shifted, "But Jiang Lingxi didn’t drive your brother away."
That’s naturally because she hadn’t gotten an answer to her question yet.
"Ahem!" Kevin couldn’t help but cough.
Jiang Lingxi, upon hearing, swallowed the last bite of cake and took a sip of the juice Wei Minmin had passed her, "Any results?"
Kevin reflexively replied, "Yes," then paused before adding, "There’s no guest by the name Wu Hua on the list."
Jiang Lingxi looked at the face in front of her, particularly simple in her eyes, "If you don’t mind, you may leave now."
Even if Wu Hua had connections with the Aibosi family, this little playboy wouldn’t likely know any crucial information.
It wasn’t until he had gotten up and walked several meters away that Kevin suddenly stopped and looked confused.
When did he become so obedient?
