Leng Minxing’s gaze merely swept over them lightly before retracting. However, everyone felt a chill down their spines, sensing impending doom.
“Come home with me or not?”
Leng Minxing looked at Luo Xi, waiting for her choice.
Just as Luo Xi was about to speak, a gentle female voice came from behind, “Young Master Leng, Me’er, you’re all here. Why didn’t you notify me in advance?”
The young madam of the Zhou family, having received the news, walked out with a group of people. Everyone looked at Luo Xi and the others curiously, seemingly surprised that the esteemed Young Master Leng had come personally.
Luo Xi and the others turned to look.
Leng Me’er was clearly quite familiar with the woman and hurriedly ran over, saying, “Sister Yun, we forgot to bring the invitation, so we weren’t allowed in. It’s so frustrating! I came here with my sister-in-law. She’s my sister-in-law.” She pointed at Luo Xi.
Good grief, finally admitting that she’s her sister-in-law?
Luo Xi felt a black line appear on her forehead.
Hearing this, the woman immediately turned to Luo Xi and smiled, “I’ve heard so much of you, the Young Madam of the Leng family. You truly live up to your reputation.”
Luo Xi smiled back and quickly pushed Leng Minxing towards the car, saying, “Husband, you go back first.”
It felt awkward for him to be the only man among so many women.
Leng Minxing got into the car with her push, but before leaving, he pinched her cheek and said, “Will you dare to be so forgetful again?”
“I won’t, I won’t.”
Luo Xi felt like she was being stared at by dozens of ambiguous eyes, her face flushed red.
Leng Minxing chuckled, waved at her, and then nodded slightly at the Zhou family’s young madam before having Anan drive away from the scene.
The people around them were envious. “I didn’t expect Young Master Leng to be such a gentle and considerate man. He even personally brought his wife here. It’s truly enviable.”
“Yeah, my husband doesn’t even know what I do when I go out. Comparing it makes me want to change husbands!”
“Right? Mine wishes I wouldn’t come back. He enjoys himself alone, let alone escorting me here.”
“…”
The women began to discuss enviously.
The young madam of the Zhou family walked over, smiling as she introduced herself, “Young Madam Leng, my name is Ji Yun. It’s nice to meet you. I hope I didn’t make you uncomfortable.”
“It’s nothing, you can just call me Luo Xi.”
Luo Xi shook her head.
“Hmm, I should be four or five years older than you. You and Me’er can call me Sister Yun. Look at me, daring to have the young madam of the Leng family call me sister,” she teased and covered her mouth with a smile.
The people around laughed as well.
Luo Xi helplessly shook her head. “It’s reasonable for you to be called Sister Yun since you’re older.”
Hearing this, Ji Yun nodded in satisfaction. She was actually worried that Luo Xi might be hard to get along with. At gatherings like this, the worst thing is offending someone. She didn’t expect Luo Xi to be quite approachable.
Their circle was a mix of good and bad relationships, so whenever someone joined, everyone wanted to win them over, especially someone of Luo Xi’s caliber.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, they heard a car stop, and two women got out. One of the girls in a light yellow dress was Jiang Yanyan. Seeing Luo Xi at the entrance, she hurriedly called out, “Xixi!”
Luo Xi turned around and smiled slightly upon recognizing her. “You’re here too.”
“Yes, this is my sister-in-law, An Ke. Sister-in-law, this is my good friend, Luo Xi.” Jiang Yanyan introduced the woman beside her, who was only slightly older.
