Looking at Xia Shige's leaving back, Lu Sixue covered her burning cheeks and said to Zhao Lili with a pale face: "Mom...what should I do? Does she still want to hurt me?"
Zhao Lili was fixing her hair with a gloomy expression, staring intently in the direction Xia Shige left.
Then she gently patted Lu Sixue's hand and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, baby, don't worry, mom will take care of her..."

Ignoring the vicious looks from Zhao Lili and her daughter behind him, Xia Shige walked up to Xia Jianing and took her to the banquet hall.
As soon as Xia Jianing walked into the banquet hall, she nervously took Xia Shige's arm.
Having made such a big joke in the banquet hall just now, Xia Jianing was very afraid that people in the banquet hall would look at her strangely.
Xia Shige felt helpless seeing this. She could only let Xia Jianing hold her arm and bring her to the dining table where she was sitting.
Tang Shiqi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xia Shige coming: "You're finally here. Who was that man just now? Do you know him?"
Then she saw Xia Jianing behind Xia Shige and was slightly startled. She looked at Xia Shige with a questioning look: "Who is this?"
Chen Zehuai also noticed that Xia Shige brought a little tail with him. His eyes lit up and he asked with interest: "Hey, why did you bring another beauty with you? May I ask who this beauty is?"
Xia Shige introduced briefly: "This is my cousin,...my uncle's daughter."
Shen Zehuai nodded in understanding after hearing this, and then he asked with a smile: "So it's my cousin, what's your name, little cousin?"
Xia Jianing raised her head somewhat uncomfortably and replied softly to Shen Zehuai: "I am Xia Jianing."
Xia Shige was stunned when he heard this - Xia Jianing?
Xia Guokang actually changed her last name...
Xia Shige frowned secretly, she felt that Xia Guokang's eating manners were too ugly.
Xia Guokang, a man who got to the top by marrying into his wife's family, actually tried to seize the right to pass on his wife's surname as soon as his wife died. What a coward.
Xia Shige sighed in his heart, then turned sideways and whispered a few words to Tang Shiqi about what had just happened.
After Xia Jianing finished speaking, she lowered her head silently and stopped talking, curling up in her seat like a little quail.
Chen Zehuai discovered that although Xia Jianing and Xia Shige were cousins, their personalities were completely different. He suddenly became interested and wanted to tease her a few more times.
Seeing this, Qianqian, who was standing by, pursed her lips unhappily and was thinking about how to draw Shen Zehuai's attention away from Xia Jianing.
But at this moment, several people came up to her——
Wu Zhuoqi then pulled out the chair next to Qianqian and sat down leisurely.
Wu Zhuo wore a dark red dress today, with her slightly curly long hair draped over her shoulders, like a red rose in full bloom. She glanced at Qianqian and Lulu with a scrutinizing look, and a disdainful sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Then, she raised her head and showed Shen Zehuai a charming and bright smile: "Hi, Shen Zehuai, long time no see!"
Shen Zehuai froze when he heard the voice. He didn't expect that he couldn't avoid Wu Zhuo even if he hid in the corner. He could only turn his head slowly, nodded to Wu Zhuo, and responded: "Miss Wu, long time no see."
