Chapter 2740: Miss Wen, You’re Overthinking It

Everyone knew that Wen Ning didn’t have a partner yet. Randomly choosing a young man as a dance partner would surely arouse suspicion from others.

But choosing a friend of her brother as a partner was almost like choosing her brother.

At least it would make others slightly less suspicious.

However, their relationship would still be doubted by people.

It was expected that Xiao Lang would be invited by Wen Ning to be her dance partner.

Yet, upon hearing it with her own ears, Li Mingxi still felt uncomfortable.

Mrs. Li praised Xiao Lang, and Wen Ning smiled with grace and poise.

Just as Li Mingxi was about to find an excuse to leave, Wen Ning continued to press on: "By the way, what were you talking about just now? I think I heard Aunt Li asking Sister Mingxi about her partner? What, is Aunt Li planning to introduce someone to Sister Mingxi?"

Li Mingxi: "..."

She was wrong, she thought even if Wen Ning liked Xiao Lang, even if she suspected the relationship between her and Xiao Lang, she would still behave graciously.

It turns out all women can be petty and jealous.

Xiao Lang’s gaze flickered slightly, his eyes briefly glanced at Li Mingxi.

Mrs. Li, being straightforward, laughed: "Yes, I was planning to introduce someone to Miss Li, I wonder if Miss Li would be interested in meeting him?"

The subject was finally brought to light.

Mrs. Wen smiled hopefully at Li Mingxi, her smile genuine, seemingly considering her interests.

Li Mingxi couldn’t help but have dark speculations.

Could it be Mrs. Wen and Wen Ning teaming up to remove her from Xiao Lang’s side?

Hopefully, she’s just overthinking.

Li Mingxi smiled faintly and didn’t refuse: "Whose son does Mrs. Li want to introduce to me?"

Mrs. Li immediately saw potential.

"I won’t be modest, my son is excellent in various aspects. If Miss Li is interested, I can let you meet first. If there’s a connection, wonderful, if not, you can still be friends."

Li Mingxi sensed that Xiao Lang’s gaze was constantly focused on her.

But he certainly wasn’t staring at her all the time...

Under the varied gazes of the crowd, Li Mingxi smiled confidently: "Alright, let’s meet as friends, I’ll meet Mr. Li when I have the time."

Li Mingxi wasn’t like other girls, shy and reserved.

At her age, she shouldn’t be so coy.

If a meeting was to be held, then let it be. Whether it develops further is another matter.

Wen Ning happily congratulated her: "Sister Mingxi, congratulations, if you’re with Mr. Li, it’d truly be a match made in heaven."

Li Mingxi’s smile slightly faded.

"I’m just meeting Mr. Li as a friend, Miss Wen, you’re thinking too much."

It’s not even certain yet, and they’re already congratulating them together.

She must be really eager for her to find a man quickly...

Wen Ning’s face stiffened slightly, and Mrs. Wen quickly changed the subject with a smile.

"The party is about to begin, Ningning, go and prepare, don’t neglect the other guests."

Wen Ning quickly reacted too: "Okay, I’m going now. Brother Xiao, let’s go."

Xiao Lang didn’t look at Li Mingxi, he turned and left with Wen Ning.

Mrs. Wen also went to entertain the other guests, saying a few words before leaving.

Mrs. Li, fearing Li Mingxi might feel awkward, also left shortly.

Li Mingxi felt she couldn’t breathe here.

She held a glass of champagne and walked towards the outside of the yacht.

By then, all the guests had arrived, and the yacht had set sail, heading towards the middle of the sea.

Li Mingxi stood on the deck, hand resting on the railing, comfortably enjoying the sea breeze.

From the banquet hall behind her, music played, and the party began.
