Chapter 46 Her biological father was actually him?
Xie Nanzhi stood still, watching helplessly as Xie Xiyan rushed over like a madwoman, only to be slapped hard across the face by Shen Xu in front of everyone.
Xie Xiyan broke down. She didn't want to be hysterical, and she wanted to save face for herself, but at this moment she really couldn't hold back.
Xie Xiyan pointed at Xie Nanzhi, "Chen Xu, you hit me for her? I am your wife."
Shen Xu frowned deeply, his face extremely grim. "I have already filed for divorce, Xie Xiyan. Get this straight, you are no longer Mrs. Shen."
Xie Xiyan stared intently at Shen Xu, her eyes red. "Even if the divorce hasn't been decided yet, I can still appeal. Shen Xu, you want to dump me and elope with this bitch? You're dreaming."
Xie Nanzhi acted like a bystander, elegantly eating fruit from a white porcelain plate. Her smile grew even brighter when she saw Xie Xiyan's vulnerable expression.
Indeed, happiness built upon the suffering of one's enemies is true happiness.
Shen Xu gets a headache whenever he sees Xie Xiyan. He regrets marrying her so much.
Shen Xu grabbed a handful of hair, looking slightly agitated. "Xie Xiyan, that's enough! Do you know how disgusting it is to see you right now?"
Xie Xiyan pointed sharply at Xie Nanzhi, "Xie Nanzhi, did you seduce Shen Xu? How could you be so shameless as to seduce a married man?"
Xie Xiyan turned her anger towards Xie Nanzhi.
Xie Nanzhi quietly put down the porcelain plate. Her light blue dress accentuated her graceful figure, and every move she made captivated the man's heart.
She stood before the onlookers, poised and dignified. "Xie Xiyan, do you think the public has no memory? Shen Xu was once my fiancé, but he became your husband. And my ex-husband, your good lover, wasn't he also the one who interfered in my marriage? Saying I seduced your husband, don't you find that ironic?"
Xie Nanzhi was a victim from beginning to end.
Being in the weaker position is the natural order of things. Even if you argue until the heavens break, Xie Xiyan cannot reverse public opinion.
Xie Xiyan clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.
Her goal today wasn't Shen Xu, but Pei Jingchuan. She calmed herself down, determined not to be easily provoked by Xie Nanzhi again.
Xie Xiyan's face turned ashen. After a long while, she uttered a harsh statement, "Shen Xu, I will not divorce you. I will fight you to the death."
unless……
Xie Xiyan concealed her malice and searched for another figure in the crowd.
Sure enough, Pei Jingchuan was spotted in an inconspicuous corner.
In fact, Xie Xiyan always knew that the person Shen Xu loved in his heart was Xie Nanzhi; otherwise, she wouldn't have hesitated to break up with him back then.
That's why Xie Nanzhi cried to Pei Jingchuan, and in the end, to fulfill her wish, Pei Jingchuan completely gave up Shen Xu's hopes and married Xie Nanzhi.
Xie Xiyan wasn't stupid. If she was certain that she and Shen Xu couldn't go back to the way things were, then she had no choice but to find another way.
Pei Jingchuan has loved her for so many years, to the point of losing himself. With just a little trickery, she can definitely win Pei Jingchuan's heart back.
She learned that Pei Jingchuan was at the welcome dinner that Zhou Mubin was hosting for Xibei, so she came too. However, she didn't expect that Shen Xu would also come over after smelling the fishy smell.
Xie Xiyan glared at Xie Nanzhi with disgust before turning and leaving.
Then, Shen Xu turned his gaze back to Xie Nanzhi, "Nanzhi, are you willing...?"
Xie Nanzhi quickly interrupted, "I don't want to."
Shen Xu, "Then why do you..."
Xie Nanzhi, "I don't love her."
Shen Xu, "Then is there anything we can do...?"
Xie Nanzhi: "I don't want to, I don't love you, it's impossible. If you understand, then get out."
She was incredibly annoyed. What was Xibei thinking? Why did they let these two in too?
His face was full of impatience, especially when he saw Shen Xu's face.
However, Shen Xu wasn't angry at all. He had wronged her back then, so whatever she did to him now was only right.
Shen Xu stopped pressing the issue. "Nanzhi, I will not give up on you. The reason I came here today is to see you. I am already very grateful that you are still willing to talk to me. Nanzhi, I will pursue you again and let you see my sincerity."
How come I never noticed this side of Shen Xu before?
Xie Nanzhi was helpless; she now had to find Xibei and find out what exactly happened.
After searching around, I couldn't find any trace of Xibei, but I did see Zhou Mubin.
Xie Nanzhi grabbed him, "Old Zhou, you're the one who organized this welcome dinner for Xibei, right? How come just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can get in?"
Zhou Mubin gave an awkward smile.
Xibei said they invited talented young people from the port city. Zhou Mubin has many friends and printed a lot of invitations.
Zhou Mubin thought to himself, "Cast a wide net and focus on the key catch; I'm sure I'll catch the fish she likes." Little did he know, someone had actually sold the invitations for a high price.
And so, some rotten apples and rotten apples infiltrated the group by accident, something Zhou Mubin only recently found out about. In any case, it was his fault for not thinking things through properly.
"Nanzhi, I'm telling you the truth, but you can't be angry."
Xie Nanzhi raised an eyebrow, signaling Zhou Mubin to continue.
After Zhou Mubin finished speaking, Xie Nanzhi fell silent.
Zhou Mubin could tolerate being enraged and furious, but his silence left him speechless.
After a long pause, Xie Nanzhi retorted, "Do I really look like someone who deserves to be masochistic? Or am I just hopeless, destined to never escape the shadow cast by Pei Jingchuan in my life?"
Zhou Mubin shook his head, "Although... never mind, I admit, we were both so concerned that we made a mistake."
Seeing Zhou Mubin lower his head and his voice grow softer, Xie Nanzhi felt uneasy.
She casually put her arm around Zhou Mubin's shoulder and said, "Old Zhou, you and Xibei are the best people in the world to me. I'm so lucky to have you two as friends in my life. Don't worry, I'm not angry, not at all."
Zhou Mubin looked up blankly, "Really?"
A friend's heart is priceless, so Xie Nanzhi wasn't angry. "Of course it's true. Let's have a good drink later, and we won't leave until we're drunk tonight."
Zhou Mubin laughed, his courage growing with each passing moment. "How about we choose a consort? That way, all the work Xibei and I did won't have been for nothing."
Xie Nanzhi: "I'll give you a look; figure it out yourself."
Regardless of the purpose, once a dinner is held, guests must be entertained.
Zhou Mubin was so busy that he was practically running away, disappearing from sight as soon as he ran off.
Xie Nanzhi took a glass of red wine and dealt with the successive attempts to strike up a conversation. It was clear that the two of them were really "putting in the effort".
She went to the restroom to touch up her makeup, applying a new layer of loose powder and then putting on lipstick.
Just as she was about to leave, she heard a familiar voice coming from the cubicle, and it was Xie Xiyan's voice.
"What did you say? Xie Nanzhi's biological father is actually him? Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"
"Okay, keep this to yourself and don't tell anyone. I'll give you an extra 200,000."
Xie Nanzhi's heart skipped a beat.
Her biological father?
Has Xie Xiyan found out the identity of her biological father?
Is Xie Xiyan planning to target her biological father and retaliate against her?
Just then, Xie Nanzhi heard the sound of flushing water and left the bathroom as quickly as possible.
Just as I came out, I accidentally bumped into a solid chest.
The man looked at her, but before he could utter the word "Nan," Xie Nanzhi tiptoed and covered his mouth, then wrapped her arms around his waist and spun around, blocking Xie Xiyan's view.
