Chapter 1554: No one likes loneliness except him
Translator: 549690339
Jing Xi was shocked. She turned around and saw a man in a wheelchair.
The lights in the courtyard were dim, and his face could not be seen clearly. Jing Xi slowly approached him.”You know me?”
“Thanks to my third sister, I know the entire family of miss Jing.”
Few people knew that Li Jing was the third child of the Li family, but Jing Xi did.
“Li Xiao?” she was shocked.
!!
Such a coincidence? She had wanted to find him, but she had actually met him in the first courtyard she had barged into?
“It seems that I’m not a n.o.body. Miss Jing, you know my name too. If so, please leave. If I remember correctly, I didn’t send anyone to the Jing family to deliver the invitation. ”
Jing Xi walked up to him while he was talking.
Li Xiao neither dodged nor panicked. Under the dim light, he wore a dark gold mask on his face, only revealing his eyes.
“You are not welcome here. Miss Jing, don’t rely on family Jing to run around. This is the Li family!”
His voice was slightly hoa.r.s.e, but it was surprisingly pleasant to the ears. However, his tone was too cold, with a hint of cruelty.
Jing Xi looked into his eyes for a long time before she slowly said,””What happened to your leg?”
“Ha!”
Li Xiao laughed sarcastically and said impatiently,””Miss Jing, you’re so well-educated. You’re always poking at people’s sore spot. I hate it when people ask about my legs. Butler, please send miss Jing away!”
The Butler had been waiting outside. When he heard Li Xiao calling for him, he immediately walked in and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He said respectfully,””Miss Jing, please come this way!”
His young master’s leg had been broken by the third miss when he was a child. The entire Li family did not dare to mention this matter. This miss Jing was really not afraid of anything. The first thing she asked was what was wrong with his leg. Wasn’t she forcing the young master to drive her out?
Jing Xi did not move. She kept staring at Li Xiao’s eyes, trying to see something in them.
“Young master Li, your eyes look a little like my friend ‘s. Perhaps you should have heard of this person’s name. His name is Lou Ziling!”
“Who is it? What nameless soldier? this young master doesn’t know him! Butler, what are you doing? Get out of the Li family if you don’t want to work here anymore!”
“Yes, yes, yes! Miss Jing, please don’t make things difficult for this old Butler. Please leave with me. This is our young master’s courtyard, no one is allowed to enter!”
The Butler broke out in a cold sweat, but he did not dare to drag Jing Xi out. He could only keep begging.
Jing Xi was a little disappointed. Li Xiao was wearing a mask, so she couldn’t see his expression or face. She couldn’t make an accurate judgment.
However, the person in front of her was very different from Lou Ziling in terms of personality, voice, and att.i.tude.
Lou Ziling would occasionally get angry, but not this bad.
Perhaps … He was in disguise?
All sorts of thoughts ran through Jing Xi’s mind. No, she had to take off his mask and see his face!
She looked at Li Xiao, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and slowly followed the Butler out of his courtyard.
Jing Rui had told her that Li Xiao must have some Masters and killers around him. Jing Xi remembered what her brother had said and didn’t dare to be too presumptuous. If she was wrong and Li Xiao was Li Xiao, she would not only bring great trouble to the Jing family, but also her own life.
The Butler sent Jing Xi out of the Li family’s Manor, but Jing Xi easily got rid of him. Then, she returned to the birthday party’s banquet hall as if nothing had happened and sat down beside Luo Feiyang.
The banquet hall was brightly lit. The crystal lamps and the retro Palace lamps complemented each other, showing a different kind of luxury and wealth.
On the stage in the middle of the banquet hall, beautiful women were dancing, and there were people playing the violin in the four corners of the hall.
The hustle and bustle here formed a sharp contrast with the cold and dead silence outside.
At first, Jing Xi had thought that the Li family was up to something, or that there were some shocking secrets hidden in the manor. That was why there was no one in the Li family, and the whole place was dead silent.
However, looking at the lively atmosphere, Jing Xi suddenly woke up.
Perhaps, it was not that the Li family wanted to hide any secrets, but that Li Xiao did not like crowds and preferred loneliness!
The gla.s.s cup in Jing Xi’s hand was crushed into pieces.
Lou Ziling!
Other than him, no one would like loneliness!
But that Li Xiao was clearly not like him!
She had said that Li Xiao’s eyes were similar to one of her friends ‘and that she was just bluffing.
Li Xiao had not revealed a single flaw just now, and Jing Xi had almost been fooled by him!
“Aiya, Xixi, are you alright? The Li family is so rich, but why did they buy such poor quality cups?”
Luo Feiyang was shocked to see the gla.s.s in Jing Xi’s hand break. He was about to hold Jing Xi’s hand to see if she was hurt, but Jing Xi moved her hand to the other side.
“I’m fine. I’ll just change to another one. ”
The gla.s.s shards pierced Jing Xi’s palm, and her soft palm was already bleeding, but she didn’t care.
Does it hurt?
It was quite painful, but it was far from the pain in her heart.
She couldn’t control her emotions just now. When she thought that Lou Ziling might be living in this vast Manor, she lost control and accidentally crushed the gla.s.s cup.
Jing Xi stood up, picked up a white napkin, and went to the bathroom.
She cleaned her palm and took out the gla.s.s from her palm. She threw it into the trash can and then wiped the blood off her palm with a napkin.
The wound was very painful, but fortunately, Jing Xi had strong endurance. She pressed it with a napkin for a while, and when she saw that the bleeding had reduced, she threw the napkin into the trash can and walked out.
The birthday party began soon after. A huge cake with more than ten layers was pushed out by the Li family’s servants. Li Jing appeared in front of the crowd in a bright red dress and high heels, accompanied by the cheerful birthday song.
A masked man in a wheelchair also appeared with her.
Li Jing was dressed very jubilantly, but the man was dressed in black. Not only was he wearing a black suit and leather shoes, but his s.h.i.+rt was also black. He even wore a pair of black leather gloves.
In addition to his dark gold mask, he looked more like he was attending a funeral than a birthday party!
The band was still happily singing “Happy Birthday to you”, but all the guests in the audience were dead silent.
Although Li Jing had put on makeup and was dressed very festive, her body was extremely thin and she looked extremely bad. Her eyes were gloomy and her expression was angry. She didn’t look like she was celebrating a birthday at all.
After the happy birthday song ended, the atmosphere turned cold and tense.
Everyone’s eyes stayed on Li Jing for a few seconds before they turned to the man in the wheelchair.
