Chapter 549: Meeting Banquet

Today, Guan Lei was going to officially show his true face in Beijing. Guan Lei did not allow Shen Xi to enter such an occasion. It seemed that Guan Lei was really tired of Shen Xi.
Li Jin’s eyes flashed and she smiled maliciously .”Shen Xi, are you really not going in? Think carefully. Without the two of us leading the way, you won’t be able to enter.”
She had once lost face in front of the entire class because of Shen Xi and returned dejectedly. This time, she wanted to let Shen Xi have a taste of what she had gone through at the banquet.
Shen Xi clenched her fists, raised her head and said coldly, “It’s my business whether I enter or not. I don’t need you guys to meddle in my business.”
After saying that, Shen Xi left immediately. Wang Lei wanted to stop Shen Xi, but Shen Luan pushed her away unceremoniously. Wang Lei was so angry that she chased after her and wanted to hit her. In the end, just as she raised her hand, her hand was sent flying by Lu Fei.
Lu Fei even said with disdain, “Take your dog paw away, it’s bad luck.”
Wang Lei, who was dressed in an exquisite gown, stomped her feet in anger at the reception area of the Guan family.
Li Jin looked deeply at Shen Xi. It was a pity that Shen Xi could not go in and be humiliated. But it did not matter. As long as she was with Guan Lei, she would have a chance to take revenge.
Li Jin snorted coldly and brought Wang Lei in.
Shen Xi stood at the entrance of the hotel gloomily. Lu Fei tilted his head at Shen Luan and Shen Luan said, “Little miss, every family has an invitation to enter. Even though the Guan family was in a hurry to inform them, the Gu family, the arch-enemy of the Guan family, would still be invited to the grand
occasion of Young Master Guan’s first appearance.”
“Yes, the Guan family will definitely do their best to maintain surface relations. Therefore, as the four big families of Beijing, the Shen family and the Lu family will definitely have invitations. Little Miss, if you want to go in, I’ll immediately get someone to go to the Lu family to get it for you.”Lu Fei immediately said.
Shen Xi turned to look at the entrance of the banquet hall and nodded silently. “Alright!”
While waiting for the invitation, Shen Xi asked about the progress of the search for Meng Yu. In the end, Shen Luan and Lu Fei shook their heads awkwardly. This was the first mission that Shen Xi had given them, but they had yet to find out anything. How could they not be embarrassed?
When Shen Xi swaggered in with the invitation letter, Li Jin and Wang Lei’s eyes almost popped out. They could not understand how Shen Xi entered without them.
Could it be that someone brought her in?
The two of them looked at the back of Shen Xi, but they did not see anyone.
Li Jin gritted her teeth. This Shen Xi was indeed very scheming. She managed to sneak in like this. However, it was fine. It was just what she wanted.
Shen Xi and the other two were dressed casually, which instantly attracted the attention of the guests who were already present. After all, who among the people present was not dressed in fancy clothes? Only Shen Xi was dressed inappropriately. She was actually wearing a down jacket, which really did not fit in with the banquet.
Shen Xi ignored the probing and mocking gazes of the others and gestured at Lu Fei. Lu Fei blinked knowingly and then blended into the crowd in a few steps.
Shen Xi could not question Guan Lei on such a big occasion about his sudden departure So, she could only try to find out Guan Lei’s location now.
Since Guan Lei had already arrived, but he did not show up, he must be somewhere in the hotel, probably in the lounge of the banquet hall.
On the other side, Li Jin had been paying attention to Shen Xi’s movements. She thought that once Guan Lei came out, she would draw everyone’s attention to Shen Xi. At that time, if Shen Xi kept pestering Guan Lei and Guan Lei became impatient, Shen Xi would probably be labelled as a toad lusting after swan meat and overestimating herself tomorrow.
Lu Fei returned very quickly and brought Shen Xi to the side. Li Jin was puzzled. Where were they going?
After thinking for a moment, Li Jin followed them quietly.
Shen Xi looked at the bodyguards in front of her and said coldly, “I’m here to look for Guan Lei, inform him.’
The bodyguard looked at Shen Xi and said without changing his expression, “I’m sorry, but our Young Master will not be seeing any guests now.”
Shen Xi held it in, took out her phone, and dialled Xue Li’s number. He said,
“Xue Li, I’m in the banquet hall right now. I want to see Guan Lei. You tell him
to come out, or let me in.”
Xue Li was shocked. Without alerting Guan Lei, he stuck his head out and saw Shen Xi, who was stopped by the bodyguards at the end of the corridor..
