Chapter 213 As Expected, Li is Our Qi Family’s Mascot
The old man sighed. “I haven’t felt such a lively atmosphere in a long time.”
After saying that, he looked at Tang Li with kindness in his eyes. “As expected, Li is our Qi family’s mascot.”
Tang Li smiled and said, “If Father likes it, we can hold as many banquets as you want.”
Tang Li knew It was very normal for wealthy families to hold all kinds of banquets.
Old Master Qi smiled and shook his head. “This kind of banquet is suitable for young people like you.”
In front of others, Old Master Qi was a strict and adamant old man who said whatever he wanted. He knew that not many people wanted to be around him.
However, he didn’t approve of many things young people did nowadays. Even if he recovered, he didn’t want to attend those noisy banquets.
“I prefer a quieter environment. It’s much better to have tea and play chess with a few old men who I know very well.”
The others smiled in understanding.
While they were enjoying themselves, the banquet hall in the front courtyard was unusually busy.
There were some people hiding in the corners and whispering.
“Did you guys see that? That’s First Master’s illegitimate son.”
“He’s quite handsome.”
“Why do I feel that he looks a little like Fourth Master?”
“An illegitimate son is an illegitimate son. Even if he is handsome and looks like Fourth Master, he is still a disgraceful thing.”
“If he was from our family, my mother would have kicked him out.”
“First Aunt is too soft-hearted. He shouldn’t have been invited to such a banquet.”
“I’m just afraid that this person has wild ambitions. No matter how good you are to him, in the end, he will just turn out to be an ungrateful person. After all, illegitimate children are illegitimate children.”
Qi Lingxuan walked over and glanced at them coldly. When they reached a deserted corner, he stopped and said to the Artifact Spirit, “I think we can make something happen tonight. We can take the opportunity to deal with my good stepmother and stepmother’s family.”
He would make those people who killed his dearest family pay the heaviest price.
The Artifact Spirit agreed. “There will be a lot of people tonight. It will be easy to create chaos.”
“Yes.” Qi Lingxuan had already planned it out.
With that, he smiled and left.
On the other side, the young men from First Master’s family were gathered with the young men from their uncles’ family. They were also discussing how to cause Qi Lingxuan trouble tonight.
“Let’s make him a laughing stock. I can’t wait to see if Uncle will still like him if his illegitimate son embarrasses him in front of so many guests.”
Hearing that, Qi Hao added, “We can’t do this ourselves. It’s best if we make someone else do it so that when the matter is exposed, we won’t be implicated.”
Everyone started thinking about who they could use to execute the plan.
At that moment, a man said, “Why don’t we use Tang Li?”
These words made the expressions of the Qi siblings change.
The three of them subconsciously objected. “No!”
“Why not?” The man disliked Tang Li a long time ago. Every time he came over and met Tang Li, she would give him a cold shoulder. He wanted to teach her a lesson.
“Isn’t she just arrogant because she has the old man’s favor? We’ll think of a way to get her and Qi Lingxuan together. Think about it. It’ll be such a blow to everyone if Tang Li is caught messing around with her nephew. Even the old man who likes her will definitely be very angry.” The other woman did not like Tang Li either and immediately added, “Maybe that bastard will be beaten to death and the woman with the surname Tang will be kicked out. This is killing two birds with one stone.”
When the three siblings heard this, their expressions changed slightly. Qi Hao said sternly, “No, you can find any woman, but not Tang Li.”
“Why? Didn’t you guys always dislike her?” Qi Ming, “Grandpa just came back. He likes Tang Li so much. If we set her up and Fourth Uncle finds out, we’ll be the ones who suffer.”
Everyone was silent for a while. They felt that it made sense, so they stopped talking about Tang Li. “Then let’s find another woman.”
“Don’t look for someone with status. He doesn’t deserve it. Why don’t we look for a servant?”
“That’s a good idea.”
At four-thirty in the afternoon, the Qi family’s door opened.
The Qi family started to welcome guests.
Under the instruction of the Qi family’s bodyguards, one luxury car after another stopped at the designated spots. Those who could attend the Qi family’s banquet tonight were either from the upper-class society of Imperial Capital or famous businessmen.
The car door opened and Madam and Miss, who were wearing dresses, followed the man in a suit to the door.
When they met familiar faces, they would slow down and talk to each other. Everyone had a polite smile on their faces.
“As expected of the Qi family’s banquet. It’s such a grand occasion.” Looking at the reporters lining up by the door, Tang Zitong, who was sitting in the car waiting to park, felt like taking the back door.
After saying that, she tilted her head to look at Su Ziqing, who came with them, and asked with a smile, “Ziqing, do you feel pressured at such a banquet?”
“What pressure?” Su Ziqing glanced at the door and asked calmly, “Those reporters want to snap photos of celebrities and rich people. What has it got to do with us? When we enter through the door later, they might not even bother to give us a shot.”
Tang Zitong was speechless.
She actually felt that what Su Ziqing said made sense.
Su Ziqing’s words were quickly verified. When they entered, a CEO of an international corporation happened to come with his wife and children. The reporters only cared about taking photos of them and didn’t bother to point the camera at Su Ziqing and Tang
Zitong
After all, the reporters felt that Fourth Master did not like Tang Li at all. As Tang Li’s family, the Tang family was not worth their attention.
The Tang family quickly walked into the mansion.
The Qi family’s banquet hall was not far from the entrance. They would arrive in a few minutes after walking.
The people who greeted them were the juniors of the Qi family and the people from the Qi family.
When they reached the banquet hall, they saw a few masters of the Qi family standing by the door to welcome everyone.
Qi Yihan was talking to a middle-aged couple who had a powerful background.
“Ziqing, look, Fourth Brother-in-law is so handsome tonight!”
Tang Zitong was infatuated.
Su Ziqing was paying attention to something else. “The other three madams are all here. Why isn’t Cousin here?”
