They quickly realized that the root of the problem lay with Xiang Qi.
Xiang Qi is using Murong Xiao for publicity.
Xiang Qi deliberately created the illusion that she and Murong Xiao had a close relationship in order to gain popularity online, even disregarding the fact that he was already married.
Suddenly, Xiang Qi became the target of everyone's criticism, and everyone turned their fire on her, flooding her account with criticism.
…………
The venue at this moment.
After a brief interruption, the charity auction officially began. The rare items raised through this fundraising campaign were auctioned off on stage, and many people bid according to their needs, creating a lively atmosphere.
"Are you happy now?" Sun Yanqing casually held up the sign and secretly chatted with Xiang Jin.
Xiang Jin smiled slightly, a little shyly, but it was a genuine smile.
Murong Xiao rejected Xiang Qi without showing any mercy in front of so many people.
The next moment, she thought of herself. She had brought Yan Qing along as a male companion, and when they were mistaken for a couple, she should have decisively explained the situation... Unfortunately, the chaotic scene at that time was too overwhelming, and she couldn't react in time.
Could this be the reason why Murong Xiao was angry?
Then she shook her head. No.
The reason he was angry was most likely because he had actually argued with Xiang Qi, or because he had offended him. Xiang Jin thought the former was more likely.
But she was still very happy... He rejected Xiangqi.
Soon, the auction reached its halfway point, and the host announced a break. A buffet and drinks were prepared in the lounge outside the main hall, and the guests went there one after another to have their meals. Xiang Jin told Sun Yanqing to go ahead first, as he needed to go to the restroom.
Worried that the restrooms in the venue would be crowded, she even went down one floor to the restroom next to the coffee shop.
Just as he stepped into the alley, Xiang Jin was suddenly pulled by a strong force and dragged into the men's restroom next door, into one of the stalls.
Murong Xiao pressed her against the wall, biting her lip hard, his cold eyes mocking: "Miss Xiang, why didn't your husband come with you? Did you have a fight?"
Xiang Jin immediately wilted, but still remained stubborn: "You're allowed to have rumors with Xiang Qi, but I'm not allowed to have contact with other men? Xiang Qi is my sister."
"So, you're jealous?"
Realizing he was genuinely angry, Xiang Jin adopted a conciliatory stance: "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were coming. I just asked him to keep me company. Who would have thought it would be misunderstood?"
The man snorted coldly, his gaze sweeping over her, his expression growing even colder.
And she's dressed like that! Countless men have seen her; is she trying to drive him crazy?!
"I was wrong... Murong Xiao..." She tugged at his sleeve, her voice soft and pitiful as she apologized.
He was instantly appeased, and all his anger vanished.
But this was the first time he had ever seen her like this. With her red lips and white teeth, she was both aloof and gentle, like a plum blossom blooming in the cold wind. She possessed an otherworldly and stunning beauty, no wonder those men couldn't take their eyes off her.
Thinking of this, his chest began to ache again; he was the last person to see her like this.
"If you know you're wrong, then apologize properly." After saying that, he pressed his lips to hers and kissed her domineeringly, his fingers wandering restlessly over her body.
Wen Yufan walked out of a nearby cubicle, looking utterly shocked...
What did he hear...?
Sun Yanqing's wife cheated on him with Murong Xiao! The two openly flirted in a public area, and Xiang Jin even stole her sister's boyfriend!
Good heavens... the entertainment industry is really chaotic.
Why let him hear this...?
Although he was slightly excited, he wondered how he would face Miss Jin in the future. He had thought she was a woman like a begonia, gentle yet resilient, but who knew she was actually a wild rose!
Wen Yufan left the bathroom in shock.
When I came out, I saw Xiang Qi being interviewed by reporters.
With a forgiving yet slightly aggrieved expression, she explained that Murong Xiao was just in a bad mood and wasn't usually like this. Netizens advised her to buy him a gift to appease him, while Wen Yufan strolled by behind her...
What a tragedy, what a tragedy... Who could have imagined that Murong Xiao wasn't in a bad mood at all, but rather...
Wen Yufan quickly snapped out of his daydreams.
Not long after, Xiang Jin returned.
Compared to before, her lips were even more vibrant and luscious, making her skin appear even whiter. Having been bullied by Murong Xiao, her mind was a bit muddled, and she didn't notice Xiang Qi was live-streaming. So, she inadvertently passed by Xiang Qi's interview camera and glanced at it sideways.
The interview was being broadcast live, and the chat went silent for a moment when she walked by.
Then, it exploded.
"Holy crap, what did I just see! Something just darted past!"
"She's a beauty, a real beauty, an incredibly beautiful woman!" One netizen was quick enough to take a screenshot and post it in the comments section.
"My goodness, who is this woman in the black dress? Is it Xiang Qi, another Xiang Qi?? Am I possessed?"
"To the netizen upstairs, you probably have cataracts. Me too, I have severe double vision, and the double vision even shows me wearing different clothes."
"Can you guys calm down? This is clearly a different woman, a woman even prettier than Xiang Qi! Holy crap, she's practically the Black Rose! That aura, those eyes, it's incredible!"
"Yes, the moment I was in the same frame as Xiangqi, Xiangqi paled in comparison."
…………
Amidst heated discussions among netizens, the hashtag #OrdinaryPersonLooksLikeXiangQi quickly became a trending topic.
Sensing that the gaze had been drawn away, Xiang Qi turned her head, and for a moment, she was stunned.
Xiang Jin also arrived.
Not only did she arrive, but she also wore a dress that perfectly suited her, simple yet elegant makeup, and a casual yet chic hairstyle... As soon as she arrived, she attracted everyone's attention and became the focus of everyone's attention.
"Miss Xiang Qi, who is this young lady? She looks just like you." The reporter's attention was also drawn to Xiang Jin, and the camera involuntarily pointed in that direction.
“She…she’s my sister.” Xiang Qi’s smile was somewhat stiff.
"Sister, Miss Xiangqi actually has a sister! This is truly shocking..." The reporter didn't even look at her, and started snapping photos of Xiang Jin.
Xiang Qi clenched her fists, her expression on her face almost breaking down.
"Didn't you say you still had questions? The auction is about to start, I don't have time." She glanced at her watch.
"Okay, okay, I wanted to ask if your sister is in the entertainment industry? What's her name? I've never heard any news about her."
Xiang Qi's expression crumbled. Her face instantly fell, and she pointed to the door beside her, saying, "I'm busy now, please leave." She then refused to look at the camera again.
