Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1909: Chapter 1909: This Wine Belongs to Xiao Lang

However, Li Mingxi takes great care of herself, and you can’t tell her age at all. Her skin is better than that of a 23-year-old woman.

So, she’s at this age and still not married? It’s really not a big deal.

Many actresses don’t get married until they’re 40, and she’s younger and prettier than them. What’s the big deal about being 33?

Li Mingxi defiantly retorted, ”With my qualifications, no man is worthy of me. If I can’t find someone good, I’d rather remain single.”

”Then what do you think of Xiao Lang?” Ruan Tianling asked with a smile.

Li Mingxi glared at him, ”Are you trying to set us up?!”

Ruan Tianling shamelessly admitted, ”You’re my cousin. Of course, if there’s a good match, I ought to introduce him to you.”

Li Mingxi grumbled inwardly.

You never treat me particularly well normally, eager to push me onto Xiao Lang. Afraid he’ll take Jian Yufei away, aren’t you?

These two men, one uses her to please Jian Yufei, the other uses her to defeat a rival. Don’t be too extreme!

Li Mingxi gritted her teeth, ready to burst out.

Suddenly Xiao Lang smiled lightly and said, ”Ruan Tianling’s suggestion is not bad. Mingxi is a good woman. If there’s any possibility between us, I would seriously consider it.”

Li Mingxi froze, her heart involuntarily trembling.

She sneaked a glance at Xiao Lang, her heartbeat becoming more erratic.

Knowing full well he’s just being polite, she still couldn’t help but take it seriously.

But his words are false, false!

If he really were considering her, what has he been doing for these three years?!

No, altogether it’s been almost five years.

The first year and a half they didn’t interact much, but they’ve been inseparable for the past three years.

Men are usually the ones to make the first move, and she’s been hanging around him for five years. If he truly liked her, he would have made a move long ago.

Five years without any indication from him, what can she still hope for?

Li Mingxi picked up her wine glass and quickly drank a sip to mask the bitterness in her eyes.

Putting the glass down, she realized they were all staring at her.

”What’s the matter?” she asked blankly. Is her expression that obvious?

Xiao Lang smiled, ”Nothing, just drink less alcohol.”

Li Mingxi suddenly realized, this was Xiao Lang’s wine—ahhh—

She coughed, feigned composure, and shifted the topic, ”Have you guys eaten yet? We’ve already eaten, but if you haven’t, order something. I don’t mind eating a bit more.”

More eating, Xiao Lang was speechless.

Jian Yufei nodded with a smile, ”Okay then, let’s eat a little more together.”

They called over the waiter and placed an order, chatting while eating.

Ruan Tianling ate a few bites and asked Xiao Lang, ”How about a few drinks?”

Xiao Lang didn’t refuse, ”Sure.”

Jian Yufei didn’t concern herself with them; matters between men were beyond her participation.

”When will you have surgery on your face?” Li Mingxi asked Jian Yufei.

Jian Yufei smiled, ”Ruan Tianling said as soon as the injury heals enough for surgery, they’ll proceed immediately.”

”It’s a minor surgery, but I’m not an expert in this area. You can look for the best cosmetic surgeon to perform it.”

”Isn’t my cousin skilled in all fields?” Jian Yufei asked.

Li Mingxi loved to hear this. She cheerfully said, ”Yes, these days, there are few all-rounders like me. As for your face, I can perform the surgery, but those specialized in cosmetic surgery would achieve even better results. My expertise lies in rare ailments; I enjoy tinkering with formulas.”

Jian Yufei’s eyes gleamed slightly, ”What kind of rare ailments are you referring to?”

”For example, the kind of condition Xiao Lang has, and some other strange ailments.”
