Feng Rong's banquet was indeed top-notch luxury.
Xiang Jin had never seen such a scene before.
But she remained calm and gentle, smiling as she followed Murong Xiao, listening to him introduce her to each shareholder and executive: "This is my wife, Xiang Jin."
This is my wife, Xiang Jin.
In general, the other party will politely compliment her, saying, "Your wife is very beautiful and excellent, and she is a perfect match for you."
Your wife is beautiful and outstanding, and you are a perfect match.
Then Xiang Jin smiled and clinked glasses with the other person, talking about the recent weather, recent major events, and interesting stories about Murong Xiao.
Sometimes she couldn't quite keep up with the conversation, and that's when Murong Xiao would step in to ease her awkwardness.
A dinner party can keep you busy from morning till night.
She didn't remember how many people she met or how much she drank; she only felt that the hotel carpet was too soft, like walking on clouds, making her feel a little lightheaded.
Once home, she couldn't wait to take off her high heels and then pounce on the soft bed.
In the instant she fell, she grabbed Murong Xiao's hand, and Murong Xiao lay down beside her.
"Murong Xiao, there's a question I've been wanting to ask you." She was tipsy, and the two rosy blushes on her face resembled ripe peaches, making her exceptionally alluring.
"What's the problem?" Murong Xiao gently brushed her bangs aside. He knew he shouldn't have let her drink so much. Seeing her so energetic, he thought she was a good drinker.
Hmph, you overestimate her.
"You, you..." Her fox-like eyes were already glazed over, and after saying the three words "you like me," she closed her eyes.
Do you like me?
Murong Xiao.
The man's eyes were deep and dark, as if he were gazing into an abyss. He cupped Xiang Jin's face in his hands, his gaze focused yet domineering: "What do you think, you silly girl?"
Why ask such an obvious question?
However, he was met with the woman's even breathing and a faint smile on her lips.
Xiang Jin was already asleep, so it seemed she hadn't heard his answer.
He lay down dejectedly, rubbing his chest where it felt heavy. He really wanted to wake her up and ask her what she was thinking, and how she would respond if she knew his feelings.
Is it the same answer as him, or...?
The more frustrated he felt, the more irritable he became, sitting up abruptly and pacing back and forth in the room.
The person in bed showed no signs of waking up...
He sighed softly, covered her with the blanket, and tiptoed to the bathroom.
…………
Xiang Jin was woken up by the ringing of the phone.
She rolled over, trying to ignore the sound, but it kept calling relentlessly as if possessed, so she had no choice but to pick up her phone and answer.
"Ah Jin, are you coming to the hospital today?" It was Jiang Anqing.
"Mom's here." She rubbed her sleepy eyes, checked the time, and her head still ached. "It'll probably be this afternoon."
"It's okay, you're busy, it's fine if you come later." The other end of the phone hung up quickly.
The commotion had completely ruined her sleepiness. She sat up abruptly and checked her phone. There were 20 missed calls and 999+ WeChat messages. What terrible thing had happened? Was the sky about to fall?
She was so frightened that she almost lost her mind. She hurriedly opened the messages and read them one by one. As she read, her face became redder and redder, and the smile on her lips deepened.
She's trending on social media.
To be precise, it was her and Murong Xiao who trended on social media.
This is the first time she and Murong Xiao have trended on social media together.
The trending topic was simple: photos from last night's banquet had surfaced and were posted on Weibo by netizens. In the photos, she was holding Murong Xiao's hand, and in the dimly lit background, she smiled gently and beautifully. Murong Xiao beside her also had a faint smile on his face. There was an ambiguous and electrifying atmosphere between them, and at first glance, they seemed like a match made in heaven.
The incident caused a huge uproar; Weibo crashed within half an hour of the image being released.
Who is this person? She's so beautiful.
Why is she holding Murong Xiao's arm? Why does she look so much like Xiang Qi? Although they look alike, Xiang Qi doesn't seem as pretty as her, but she has a calm and aloof air about her.
And Murong Xiao, why is he laughing?
When did the richest man become so fond of smiling?
What to do? He looks even more handsome when he smiles... He's absolutely captivating!
Netizens have various points of interest, but most are speculating about Xiang Jin's identity. Some say she's one of Murong Xiao's female companions, given that he often brings different women to various events; others say she's Xiang Qi's body double, and that Murong Xiao, unable to forget Xiang Qi after their breakup, is using a body double; still others suggest she's Murong Xiao's sister…
Netizens commented: "Are you blind? The atmosphere between them is like that of sisters? If they are sisters, I'll eat shit on live stream!"
"That's right, that's right! Didn't you see the way Master Xiao's eyes were drooling? When has he ever drooled over his female companions? I bet a dime that this is definitely true love!"
"True love my foot! He's clearly just a substitute for Xiang Qi. He still can't forget Xiang Qi after all..."
…………
Just as netizens were arguing heatedly, Fengrong's official Weibo account posted a message in the early hours of the morning: "The boss and his wife are a perfect match, hehe~"
Then a high-resolution photo of the two of them was added.
Two minutes later, Murong Xiao's official Weibo account reposted the photo, saying, "The photo is well taken."
Half an hour after the Weibo post was published, the system crashed again.
