Seeing that Xu Tingchuan's eyes lit up when he heard about that person, Ni Sitian let him go, as she wanted to sit down again.

"I'll go say hello and come right back," Xu Tingchuan said softly, gently smoothing Ni Sitian's hair.

Ni Sitian nodded, gave him a sweet, slight smile, and watched him and the two middle-aged men walk to the other side.

After Xu Tingchuan left, she felt a little bored, so she took some food and sat down to eat quietly.

Suddenly, someone sat down in front of her. She looked up and saw that it was Qin Mubei.

She ignored it and continued eating.

"You seem to have gained quite a bit of weight. He must treat you very well, right?" Qin Mubei said, noticing her appetite.

Ni Sitian didn't respond or look up, as if her focus was solely on the plate.

"I heard that Ni Ziqi has recently gotten involved with President Fang of Dacheng Group. Dacheng and M&K seem to be in strong competition." Qin Mubei didn't really know what he wanted to do; he just wanted to talk to her and hear her voice.

Ni Sitian frowned slightly. Since she published the news of severing ties with Ni Qianshan, she hadn't heard anything about these people for a long time, and she had no interest in knowing.

"They seem to be attending the ball tonight too, apparently trying to get in touch with the GD Group to squeeze M&K in the mainland market." Qin Mubei said, glancing outside as he spoke, "Speak of the devil, and he appears."

Upon hearing this, Ni Sitian couldn't help but look up and saw Ni Ziqi walking in, wearing Givenchy's new spring collection and arm in arm with a pot-bellied man who was shorter than her.

The scene was horrifying; it was clearly an improper relationship.

Ni Ziqi has hooked up with the CEO of Xu Tingchuan's rival company. What is she planning to do?

"That Mr. Fang is forty-six this year. I heard he has a lot of bad habits in that area. His mistresses are always being tortured and end up in the hospital. Ni Ziqi must be crazy," Qin Mubei continued.

Ni Sitian finally couldn't hold back any longer and glanced at Qin Mubei with a hint of annoyance: "How come I never knew you were such a gossip? It's a shame you're not a reporter. Besides, Ni Ziqi is your old flame. If you're worried, go save her. What are you talking to me about?"

Qin Mubei's lips curved slightly. Although she hadn't said a word to him, he was already very happy that she had spoken up.

Ni Sitian didn't want to sit there any longer, so she got up and scanned the hall, looking for Xu Tingchuan.

When Qin Mubei saw that she was about to leave, he instinctively reached out to grab her, but a hand grabbed his wrist.

Ni Sitian heard Qin Mubei cry out in pain behind her. She turned around and saw Qin Mubei being grabbed and pinned to the dining table.

The tall, stern-faced man in black nodded apologetically to Ni Sitian: "I'm sorry, Mrs. Xu, I've caused you unnecessary harassment."

Immediately afterwards, two men in suits grabbed Qin Mubei and dragged him outside.

Qin Mubei seemed caught off guard, looking completely bewildered. Seeing her husband treated this way, Jiang Yiyi quickly went over. She used to be so dismissive of Qin Mubei, always acting superior. Now that the Jiang family's influence had waned, and she wanted to maintain her place among Yihai City's socialites, she could only rely on the Qin family. Therefore, her attitude towards Qin Mubei was quite different now.

Unfortunately, they clearly didn't listen to them and asked Jiang Yiyi to leave as well.

Ni Sitian was also surprised by this turn of events. After they were thrown out the door, she turned her gaze to the man in black beside her. He was in his thirties, with dark skin, good looks, and a strong aura of an elite, cold and capable.

I wondered if this was the legendary homeowner.
