C163

Zhang Lingling's birthday banquet was actually not in a hotel, but placed in a villa on the outskirts of the city. When the taxi reached the door, the security guard at the door came up and told us that this was a private place and that taxis were not allowed in.

Tick took out the invitation card from her bag and handed it to the security guard, who took the invitation card and was stunned for a moment. After confirming the invitation, he called for us to enter.

At this point, the driver in front couldn't help but ask, "Sir, are you really here to attend the banquet?"

I asked in surprise, "Yes, is there a problem?"

The driver chuckled and said, "No, I've been driving a taxi for more than ten years, and this is the first time I've been able to drive in. It's all thanks to you today!"

I frowned slightly and glanced at Tick. I saw that she shook her head as well. She didn't seem to know either.

"Can't a taxi come in here?"

The driver bluntly said, "Nonsense, this is Wang Jiang Manor, one of the top villas in the Donghai City. The taxi won't come in at all, and anyone who can come here to eat, who isn't driving or has a driver to send them over, even if they aren't, the villa will arrange for the cars to be sent back. It's not even a place for us."

Hearing the driver's words, I finally understood that I had made a big mistake. I should have found a private car. I think we're the only ones here today who took a taxi.

At this moment, the car finally stopped at the entrance of the tallest building in the villa. Although this building was not very tall, it was very stylish. From the decoration on the outside, one could tell that this building was not simple at all.

The taxi stopped at the door, and the waiter was stunned for a moment before stepping in and opening the door. I got off the taxi first. The moment I stuck my head out, I could feel the eyes of the people around me looking at me. With a smile, I forced myself to step out of the car. It's so awkward, I should have checked before coming over.

Soon, Tick walked out of the car. The moment the flute appeared, the surrounding men's gazes were all focused on her. Tick was so beautiful today that even my boyfriend was mesmerized when he first saw her, let alone these men.

Tick was only twenty years old today, and the receding of Qing Zhi had made her look even more lively. Coupled with her current clothes and the long skirt she wore, she looked like a fairy that had descended to the mortal world.

Tick didn't hesitate to grab my arm. I could feel Tick's nervousness coming from her hand.

I patted Tick's hand, and though I was nervous, I forced myself to calm down. I have already experienced so many life and death situations. I can even face the past with a smile at a gathering of mafia lords. Could it be that I am afraid of such a small birthday party?

When I thought of this, I was no longer nervous. The smile on my face also became more natural. Carrying my flute, I ignored the surrounding gazes and confidently walked inside.

Zhang Lingling's birthday party was a buffet, and there were already a lot of people coming in. After I entered with Tick, I casually took an unremarkable seat before sitting down. The waiter then walked over and respectfully asked us what we wanted to eat.

After the waiter left, I impatiently asked, "Tick, who exactly is Zhang Lingling?"

I didn't know that she had such a grand birthday banquet. She only told me to dress up more formally before, if I had known, I wouldn't have brought you here. "

Looking at Tick's appearance, I smiled bitterly and comforted her, "Forget it, Ling Ling is your good friend. Furthermore, this place is so good.

Tick shook her head and said, "No, Ling Ling doesn't like to talk to the others, so the rest of us in our dorm don't want to talk to her. Only I have a better relationship with her."

I nodded and said, "Oh, alright then. We'll head back after eating happily tonight. After we get back, we shouldn't tell your dorm about what happened today."

Di Zi rolled her eyes at me, and said, "Don't worry, I know what to do. Seriously, when we go back, I will definitely interrogate Ling Ling. Her family has so much money, but she actually never told me about it.

Seeing Tick's discontent, I laughed in my heart and comforted her, "Alright, I won't say that I have a family. Maybe she doesn't like others because of her family background."

Tick hummed in dissatisfaction, "Hmph, we are best friends, and yet she told me today. No way, I will definitely interrogate her when we get back."

Very quickly, the waiter brought the food up. I didn't hold back. Before coming here, I definitely didn't eat anything. I thought that I would be able to have a feast tonight. My stomach was already starving.

Tick, seeing how I was wolfing down my food, couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckling. She knew I'd been back since noon and hadn't eaten since then, so she didn't say anything.

Just as I finished a piece of steak, stood up, took my plate to the food area to get some other food, and came back with it, I saw a man in his thirties, dressed in bright clothes, already sitting in my seat, courting Tick.

Tick was sitting across from him, and although she still had a faint smile on her face, I could feel the panic in her eyes.

I took my things and came over and sat down between the two of them. The moment I sat down, the man frowned. He looked at me and said impolitely, "Sir, I'm sorry. I still have something to discuss with this young lady."

I placed my things on the table and said, "Oh, you guys can talk about yours. I'll eat mine. Is there a problem?" At my words, Tick rolls her eyes at me. She knows I'm looking for trouble.

The other party's gaze towards me was filled with disgust, but he was already courteous and said, "Sir, I think you should move to another place. After all, the things we're talking about are quite important, so it's inconvenient for outsiders."

I picked up a small piece of pastry with my hand and said as I ate, "So, Tick, what are you talking about?"

Tick quickly said, "Nothing, by the way, aren't you full yet?"

Hearing the conversation between the two of us, the other party's face changed. The look of disgust disappeared, and with a smile, he said, "So this mister knows Miss Shen, I apologize, I was rude."

I shot a glance at him and said impolitely, "You are indeed rude, taking over my position."

"Hearing my words, the other person immediately became embarrassed. He didn't stand up at all." Miss Shen, about our business card, if you are interested, you can call me anytime. At that time, I will gather all the resources in the company and give you the best possible development! " As she spoke, the other party took out a name card and handed it to Tick.

"I can hold this for her." Without waiting for Tick to speak, I reached over and took the card.

Seeing that the name card was taken by me, the man immediately became anxious, and shouted indifferently: "Sir, I think I will trouble you with this, after all this is a matter between me and the Miss Shen."

"It doesn't matter, I'm not afraid of trouble anyway." After saying that, I put the name card into my pocket and began to leisurely eat the steak.

The man directly looked at the flute and continued, "Miss Shen, I hope you can reconsider. My company is the most professional company in Donghai City, if you are willing to come to our company, I can guarantee that you will be the next national female star."

Tick said softly, "Mr. Jiang, I'm really not interested in this. I won't trouble you any longer."

The man was still unwilling to give up and continued to persuade her, "Miss Shen, I hope you will think about it carefully. After all, this kind of opportunity is very rare, and our company really needs someone with potential like you. If you are willing to come to our company, I will definitely give you the best conditions and treatment."

Tick said without hesitation, "Thank you. I really don't need that. I just want to go to school."

The man still could not give up, and continued to speak, "Miss Shen, you have the most potential I have ever seen, it is a pity that you are wasting it all. You should stand on the stage and enjoy the attention of everyone, and when the time comes, you can get to know more people.

I put down the knife and fork in my hand and impatiently said, "I say, aren't you annoyed? Tick has already said that she can't go. You're blabbering on and on, do you think you're just helping others with their matchmaking?"

The man frowned and said coldly: "Sir, this is a matter between me and Miss Shen. Although Miss Shen is your friend, you still can't decide her will."

I leaned back and looked at this Mr. Jiang. I couldn't help but sneer in my heart as I said indifferently, "Oh, this is interesting. She's my girlfriend. You're saying that I don't have any rights!"

When she saw that Tick did not say anything, her expression turned ugly, "Miss Shen, I really feel pity for you, an outstanding girl like you, how can you have such an unrefined boyfriend, I think you should come to my company, here, you can meet more people, your horizons will be higher."

After hearing what Mister Jiang said, although I was very unhappy, I could not blame him for saying this. In the entire banquet hall, besides my table, the other tables were basically all very clean and tidy. Only my table was piled high with plates, looking extremely pathetic.

"Just as I was about to speak, a cold voice came from the side." Jiang Haoran, my friend will not make a mess with your evaluation. "
