Chapter 691: Music Soiree 3

At this moment, Ling Ao turned his gaze toward Ling Xuejiu and Li Mengjie, and was slightly taken aback before he exclaimed, "Tsk tsk! Whoever gets to marry you two will really be blessed. I bet even the cost of meals would be saved in the future."

Li Mengjie asked, "Uncle Ling, why wouldn’t we need to pay for meals?"

Ling Ao chuckled and said, "As the saying goes, ’beauty is a feast for the eyes.’ With such stunning beauties like you, who would still have the appetite for food?"

Upon hearing this, Li Mengjie couldn’t help but laugh and said, "Uncle Ling, you really know how to sweet-talk, unlike some people who don’t even know how to say a single flattering word."

Leng Xuan touched his nose, knowing that the ’some people’ she referred to was definitely himself. Women indeed liked to hear compliments. He hesitated, wondering if he should learn this kind of skill. With so many girls around him, it was essential to have some sweet words up his sleeve to conveniently coax them when the time came.

Ling Ao glanced at his watch and said, "Let’s get going, we shall be late if we don’t leave now."

Everyone nodded. Ling Xuejiu and Li Mengjie got into the Lincoln one after the other. Seeing that the space inside the car seemed rather tight and that it would be somewhat cramped if five people were to sit in it, Leng Xuan scratched his head and said, "Uncle Ling, I’ll just take the Mercedes. That way, you’ll have more room."

"It doesn’t matter," Ling Ao waved his hand and said. "We’re all no strangers here; it’s just a squeeze, no big deal. Get in the car quick."

Since Leng Xuan couldn’t refuse, he climbed in and sat next to Ling Xuejiu. Noticing Ren Fanghua seated opposite him, he promptly greeted, "Auntie Ren, how are you?" Ren Fanghua returned the greeting with a smile and a simple ’good,’ then said no more. However, Leng Xuan couldn’t help but feel that her gaze swept over him from time to time, which struck him as odd, but it wasn’t a good time to ask about it, so he just kept it in mind.

Ling Ao’s Lincoln had been specially customized with a bulletproof exterior that could withstand bullets and even rocket launchers. The interior was also extremely luxurious. In addition to an LCD television, there was a car phone and a small bar, which made the space inside the car seem even smaller.

The luxuries of the rich are indeed different! Leng Xuan thought to himself.

Ling Ao seemed to know what Leng Xuan was thinking and explained with a laugh, "This car isn’t just for safety; it’s also about face. The higher your status, the more you need to learn how to showcase it. This too is a means of socializing. For people like us who dive into the business world, we naturally use money to do the talking."

Leng Xuan nodded his head in realization.

The car had now left the Imperial Scenery Garden and was speeding toward the location of the banquet. Leng Xuan was sitting beside Ling Xuejiu, and since the space inside was quite cramped, their bodies inevitably came into contact with each other. What made Leng Xuan embarrassed was that their thighs were tightly pressed together, and with the slight swaying of the car as it moved along, there was occasional intimate friction between them.

Ling Xuejiu was obviously aware of this as well, and her face instantly turned red. Fortunately, the lighting inside the car was dim, so it didn’t draw the attention of the others. Not daring to make a fuss about such an embarrassing matter, especially with so many people in the car, she tried to squeeze her thigh inward, attempting to create some distance between them.
