Chapter 315 She Attended the Cabinet Banquet

Chapter 315 She Attended the Cabinet Banquet

Lu Xirui frowned and shook her head, retorting seriously: "No, I must have seen you."

Li Qiao raised her head slightly, thinking about his name.

A few seconds later, she turned her head and asked Shang Yu, "Is Lu Xiheng related to him?"

"It's his younger brother." The man put his arms around Li Qiao's waistline, and said in a deep voice, "Do you know Lu Xiheng?"

Li Qiao shook her head, but still patiently explained: "I don't know, I heard from Tang Yiting before that she has a long-haired cousin who seems to be called Lu Xiheng."

At this time, Huo Mang reached out and patted Lu Xirui's shoulder, squeezed it hard as if warning, and looked at Li Qiao at the same time, "Do you know the Tang family?"

Decades ago, there was a woman from the Pamalu family who married far away from the Tang family in Nanyang. She is now Tang Yiting's mother.

However, the relationship between the Lu and Tang families is not close.

On the contrary, Lu Xiheng often travels to and from Nanyang with Shang Lu, so he should be more familiar with the Tang family.

Right now, Li Qiao nodded and added: "I know, the two families are family friends."

In this way, Huo Mang breathed a sigh of relief. Since Li Qiao knew the Tang family, Lu Xirui's behavior seemed to make sense.

Maybe I have seen it in Nanyang, or at the Tang family.

However, Lu Xirui said thoughtfully: "No, I haven't seen you in Nanyang."

Huo Mang: "..." He was convinced.

Li Qiao frowned quietly, carefully scrutinizing Lu Xirui's recognizable cheek, but unfortunately... still no impression in her mind.

She thought for a while, and then gave a step, "Most of the faces in Yaqu are similar, maybe Mr. Lu has identified the wrong person."

"Okay, okay, no matter whether we have met before or not, we will be our own people from now on." Seeing that something was wrong, He Qing quickly got up to smooth things over.

He could already see that Shaoyan was showing signs of anger. As a man, if his girlfriend was tried by his brother, he might not be able to keep calm.

He Qing got up and pouted towards the opposite banquet table, "Come on, everyone is here, let's go to the table and start dinner."

The moment the words fell, when the others were about to take action, Lu Xirui's eyes lit up suddenly, and he whispered as if he had suddenly realized: "I remember."

Huo Mang couldn't bear it anymore, and kicked the hollow of his leg, "Are you fucking done?"

Lu Xirui staggered after being kicked, but ignored Huo Mang, and instead asked everyone to ask, "Miss Li, have you ever been to Myanmar before?"

Li Qiao: "..."

Well, it seems that he has actually seen himself.

To be able to speak about the country of Myanmar is indeed true.

Li Qiao looked at Lu Xirui neither surprised nor pleased, and nodded generously, "Yes, I have been."

"I just said that I can't remember wrong." Lu Xirui chuckled with relief, "A few years ago, I met you at the Cabinet Office in Myanmar."

In an instant, all eyes were on Li Qiao.

Myanmar, the Cabinet Office?

Except for Lu Xirui and Shang Yu, the others all looked shocked.

They chose to believe in Lu Xirui out of instinct, but this matter...it's so unbelievable, and people can't help but doubt it.

Li Qiao, an unknown little girl, what ability does she have to enter the cabinet office of Myanmar?

That is where important members of the national cabinet of Myanmar are seated.

"Siri, you, are you kidding me?"

He Xi opened his mouth in disbelief, his gaze moved away from Li Qiao's body stiffly, and he stared at Lu Xirui for a moment, trying to see some flaws from his expression.

How many people have heard of the Cabinet Office but have never seen it.

Lu Xirui nodded calmly, "Of course not. A few years ago, I was invited by the Minister of International Cooperation to attend a banquet at the Cabinet Office, and Miss Li was there at that time."

Lu Xirui didn't say more details, because if he remembered correctly, Li Qiao was also invited to the banquet, and her seat was next to the commander-in-chief of the Burmese military department.

At this time, Li Qiao and Lu Xirui's eyes intertwined, their lips slightly bent, "Mr. Lu has a really good memory."

Although it sounds like a compliment, it is somewhat insincere.

Li Qiao seldom cared about the big and small things in these scenes, and she was fooled when she attended the cabinet banquet.

She didn't care at all.

Lu Xirui pursed her lips seriously, and looked at Li Qiao with eyes full of admiration, "It's not that I have a good memory, it's that Ms. Li returned home before the banquet was over, which is really impressive."

Li Qiao: "..."

It was a banquet at the Cabinet Office of a country, and she was the only one with a face full of impatience. After drinking a few glasses of water and wine, she left with a sullen face.

As for the cabinet members present, there was no one to stop them, and even everyone was not surprised.

It's too scary.

So much so that this incident has always been fresh in Lu Xirui's memory, and he can't forget it even if he wants to.

...

Ten minutes later, the private banquet hall opened for dinner.

Probably because she was shocked by the fact that Li Qiao was able to attend the Myanmar cabinet banquet, the silence in the huge box was uncomfortably quiet.

Li Qiao ate sullenly, but felt a little annoyed.

The stinging gazes from the opposite side kept falling on her. Even if she deliberately ignored it, she couldn't swallow being stared at like this, and felt like a monkey.

Li Qiao ate a few bites, and there were already many side dishes on the plate that she didn't eat.

He Qing watched with his own eyes as she took a bite of food and put it on his plate, and then began to... pick and choose.

She would not eat anything as small as a chopped green onion or as large as a piece of crispy bone.

Did she just say that she is not picky eaters?

After a few more minutes, Li Qiao put down her chopsticks silently.

At this moment, as a "watching monkey", she really couldn't eat anymore.

Li Qiao wiped her hands with a towel, raised her eyebrows and looked at Shang Yu beside her, "I'm full, I'll go outside for a walk."

"Accompany you." The man gestured to put down his chopsticks, but Li Qiao pressed his wrist, "No, let's talk, I'll let Luo Yu accompany me."

She knew very well that if she didn't leave the scene, this group of people would probably remain silent forever.

After all, she didn't even say a word of politeness to start the meal, and she was obviously still immersed in the shock of her being able to participate in the banquet of the Myanmar cabinet.

Even the atmosphere in front of the table made people feel obviously depressed.

They are Shang Yu's friends, maybe there are some things that are difficult to say in front of her.

In a blink of an eye, Li Qiao walked out of the private banquet hall.

Three seconds later, the brothers and sisters of the He family and Huo Mang immediately looked at Lu Xirui, and the three of them almost said in unison: "Xirui, what's going on?"

With a "click", the sound of the lighter came to my ears.

Several people followed the sound, and saw Shang Yu's thin lips pursing his cigarette, and his handsome face covered by the white mist was somewhat unreal.

Lu Xirui looked left and right, and asked back with a puzzled face, "What's going on?"

He Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and his tone became much calmer, "Are you sure you didn't recognize the wrong person? Did you really see her in the Cabinet Office?"

"Of course, Ms. Li has admitted it herself, so there is nothing doubtful about it."
