A chilling aura spread outwards, and Lu Xiangxi clearly sensed that Xu Chengzhi was angry, and his patience had run out.

She swallowed hard, and unconsciously looked at Chu Yu, who had instructed her to do all this.

Behind the crowd, Chu Yu silently withdrew his gaze from them, lowered his head and began applying makeup, as if he were uninterested in it all and it had nothing to do with him.

The frigid air pressure was so cold that Lu Xiangxi could hardly breathe. She wanted to continue to act cute and fool her, but then she remembered the words Xu Chengzhi had threatened her before.

Lu Xiangxi knew very well that the man in front of her had a bad temper.

His good temper was reserved for only one person: Lin Yang.

Lu Xiangxi shakily pulled Xu Chengzhi's cracked phone out of her bag.

Upon seeing this, Xu Chengzhi reached out his hand, palm facing up.

The phone that Lu Xiangxi handed over landed steadily in his hand.

"I won't say thank you, since we both know what's going on." Xu Chengzhi didn't mince words, his voice as loud as ever, completely disregarding the many people around him.

He knew perfectly well how his phone disappeared and how she found it.

Only Lu Xiangxi would dare to treat him like a fool.

"Brother, what are you saying? Xi'er doesn't understand at all~" Lu Xiangxi forced a smile and started to pretend to be stupid.

"I don't care if you're pretending to be stupid or you really are. From now on, if you see me, just take a detour." Xu Chengzhi put his phone in his pocket, pulled out a chair and sat down at the dressing table opposite Lin Yang, so that the two of them could see each other through the mirror.

"Brother Xu, did I do something to upset you? We were fine before, and I told you I wouldn't bother you and Sister Lin..." Lu Xiangxi took advantage of everyone's attention to gather around her, her eyes filled with tears of grievance, making her look truly pitiful.

The onlookers couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

"Could these two really be having an affair? Is it really as the trending topics said a while ago?"

"No way, this industry is really messed up. Didn't the company intervene to control the comments after the last trending topic? They tried all sorts of whitewashing, saying that it was someone deliberately spreading rumors, that Xu Chengzhi is currently single, and that it's unknown whether Miss Lu is single or not. Then, not long after, Xu Chengzhi got together with Lin Yang again, and they even quickly set a wedding date for next month."

"I suddenly feel sorry for Chu Yu. Almost everyone in the industry knows that Lu Xiangxi is his girlfriend. Now that she's with Xu Chengzhi, he's really being cuckolded."

"I feel sorry for Lu Xiangxi. Looking at her eyes, I feel like she really likes Xu Chengzhi. It's so tragic to love someone silently and humbly."

The person who said that later realized that liking someone can be faked.

As the chatter grew louder and louder, Xu Chengzhi couldn't help but frown.

"If you say another word, believe me, I'll make sure you're all unemployed right now," Xu Chengzhi's voice was deep but very intimidating.

Everyone present immediately fell silent, even Lu Xiangxi, who was trying to portray a pitiful and innocent character, stopped her fake tears.

The onlookers immediately dispersed, each busy with their own tasks, fearing that the wealthy and powerful Xu Chengzhi would immediately fulfill his promise.

"Aren't you going to get lost?" Xu Chengzhi lifted his eyelids in disgust. He found Lu Xiangxi's green tea tricks utterly offensive.

Lu Xiangxi felt embarrassed and was about to leave when Xu Chengzhi called her back.

"If you dare to talk nonsense again, watch your tongue."

This is not a threat; this is a promise to keep.
