[BL] Transmigrating into the Reborn Male Lead's Ex-Boyfriend

Ch107 - Good-Looking and Has Long Legs

Xiao Yuanmu nodded slightly and said, "It's a pleasure to have you here, Auntie Song."

Li Nianan nodded. "Congratulations on finding your birth parents. I'm also so happy that your company's been so successful. Xuanhe's happy for you as well. Allow me to congratulate you on his behalf."

"Thank you." Xiao Yuanmu's voice warmed up quite a bit upon hearing Li Nianan mention Song Xuanhe. "How is he doing?"

Li Nianan smiled. "He told you, didn't he? He's been making a fuss about quitting the company, but the rest of the family doesn't agree. So, they're treating it like he's just taking a vacation. That child's still young. He wants to go out into the world and do things. He makes the people around him worry. When you're together, keep an eye on him. It must be a pain to be with him."

Xiao Yuanmu showed no expression on his face, but his voice was calm and certain. "I've never found it to be a bother."

Li Nianan was slightly taken aback. It wasn't until her younger sister, who was beside her, chuckled that she came back to herself. She also laughed. "That's good."

"However..." Li Nianan looked up, her smile fading as she asked, "Why did you suddenly decide to come to America? Are you two still together or not?"

Xiao Yuanmu's expression changed slightly. "What did Xuanhe say?"

"Him?" Li Nianan shook her head. "He said that you two broke up. In the beginning, we believed him. But then, I found out that you two still keep in touch. There was also that interview of yours. So, just what's going on between you two?"

Xiao Yuanmu's eyelids lowered slightly, and his voice became quiet. "The decision to come to America was rushed. He was angry with me when I told him. That's why he wanted to break up."

Li Nianan looked like she finally understood what was going on. "That explains why he changed so dramatically, almost like he has become an entirely different person."

Xiao Yuanmu looked up, light flickering through his eyes.

When Li Nianan saw Xiao Yuanmu's expression, she smiled. "I get it now. He's stubborn as a mule, that one. He refuses to yield. He probably didn't want to come today because he's still busy throwing a fit. Don't take it to heart."

There were many eyes on Xiao Yuanmu today, because he was the star of tonight's banquet. Some of them had seen his sudden change in direction upon seeing the two women. They had also seen the way he had stopped to chat with them for some time. One of the guests couldn't help but ask the person next to him, "Anderson, do you know who that is next to Young Mr. Xiao?"

"Which Young Mr. Xiao?" Anderson followed the other's gaze. "Ah, the star of today's banquet. I recognize one of the women with him. That's George James's wife."

"Is she the one who's currently speaking with Young Mr. Xiao?"

"As if." Anderson shook his head while laughing. "Not just anyone can attend today's banquet. Besides, she must be quite the figure to make Young Mr. Xiao personally head over to her."

Many of the guests were having similar conversations throughout the hall. They all were wondering who this person was. Song Guochao, who had just returned after warning Song Guohua outside, had just so happened to listen in on this particular conversation. He hadn't even had time yet to bask in his delight of being surrounded by these finance world big shots.

"Excuse me." Song Guochao flashed a gentlemanly and kind smile. "I couldn't help but overhear your conversation. I know who she is."

The two people who had been in the middle of a conversation turned to look at Song Guochao. Once again, they did not recognize him. They exchanged glances. The tall, lean, blond-haired man then asked, "You know who she is?"
