Xie Wenqi felt inexplicably ashamed for a moment. He felt that Xia Jianing was not a good enough girlfriend.
If it weren't for the fact that his family liked Xia Jianing and his mother also approved of Xia Jianing as their daughter-in-law and asked him to bring Xia Jianing out to socialize, he didn't want to bring Xia Jianing to this party at all.
Xie Wenqi raised his hand to loosen his tie, and said impatiently: "It's just a friend I know. I've already said that it's not easy for me to get the qualification to attend this banquet. I need to know more people. Just sit down and eat by yourself, don't stay by my side and bother me."
Xia Jianing's eyes were filled with a trace of grievance when she heard this. She said to Xie Wenqi, "I want to accompany you, too. I will just stand beside you obediently and won't get in your way."
Xia Jianing then took a few steps forward and handed the dessert in her hand to Xie Wenqi's mouth, saying with concern, "By the way, Wenqi, drinking on an empty stomach is not good for your health. Eat some dessert first to fill your stomach. I specially brought your favorite mango cake."
Xie Wenqi frowned when he saw this. Thinking that his goddess Lu Sixue might still be watching, he got anxious and said to Xia Jianing, "I don't want to eat. Stay away from me first!"
Xia Jianing tilted her head and asked in confusion, "Why don't you want to eat? Since the natural disaster, we haven't had the chance to eat these fruit desserts. Now it's not easy to have a chance to eat them, we have to eat more quickly."
Listening to Xia Jianing's shameless words, Xie Wenqi felt anxious and angry. He felt that Xia Jianing was deliberately embarrassing him. He could even feel the laughter from the rich people around him when they heard Xia Jianing's words.
So he pushed Xia Jianing away and whispered with some disdain: "I said I don't want to eat, don't embarrass me here!"
Xia Jianing was wearing high heels. When Xie Wenqi pushed her, she lost her balance and fell onto the table in a mess.
The drinks on the table were knocked to the ground by Xia Jianing, making crisp crackling sounds. The dessert in her hand also fell on her skirt, and the cream icing and fruits on it left mottled marks on her skirt.
Many guests heard the noise and looked over here. Xia Jianing suddenly felt embarrassed and her face turned red in an instant.
Xia Shige had been observing the movements here. When she saw Xia Jianing being pushed down, she hesitated for a moment, stood up, and under the puzzled gazes of the people at the table, she lifted her foot and pushed Xia Jianing over.
Xie Wenqi looked at the disheveled Xia Jianing with disdain in his eyes. He looked down at Xia Jianing lying on the ground and scolded in a low voice: "What are you doing? Do you want to embarrass me? Are you doing this on purpose?!"
Xia Jianing raised her head and clearly saw the deep disdain and disgust in Xie Wenqi's eyes. Her eyes were suddenly filled with tears, and she was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
Xie Wenqi frowned even more tightly upon seeing this. Seeing more and more guests looking over here, he just wanted to take Xia Jianing out as soon as possible.
He took a few steps forward and approached Xia Jianing, saying, "Get out of here right now! Go directly to the underground garage and wait for me. I'll take you home after the party. Don't stay here and let others laugh at you! You've made me lose face!"
After he finished scolding, he was about to reach out and pull up Xia Jianing who was lying on the ground, but suddenly, a figure blocked his way.
Xia Shige glanced at Xie Wenqi coldly. In Xie Wenqi's slightly surprised eyes, she leaned over and helped Xia Jianing up.
Xia Jianing didn't expect to meet Xia Shige here. She was a little dazed when she was helped up by her.
Before Xia Jianing could speak, Xie Wenqi spoke to Xia Shige in a slightly puzzled voice, "Excuse me, who is this lady?"
Xia Shige ignored Xie Wenqi. She whispered to Xia Jianing, "Let me take you to the bathroom to deal with it."
Xia Jianing bit her lower lip and hummed softly.
Xie Wenqi said quickly: "Don't worry about her, she is just being pretentious and is angry with me."
Xia Shige didn't even look at Xie Wenqi. She helped Xia Jianing out of the banquet hall, leaving Xie Wenqi alone.
Under the curious gazes of the people around him, Xie Wenqi felt even more embarrassed. He lowered his head and secretly walked away.
