The guests invited to this banquet were all members of the wealthy and aristocratic families.
Although there were quite a few celebrities present, apart from a very few whose status and position in the entertainment industry were high enough, the rest were invited as male or female companions.
Zhao Ning, who had previously appeared on a variety show with Xia Chuyue, came with Ye Jing'an, the young master.
But Xia Xinxin had already been thrown out by the Xia family, so it was impossible for her to have received an invitation. How did she get in?
Xia Chuyue looked at Xia Xinxin, who was chatting and laughing among the celebrities, and couldn't help but wonder.
Why is Xia Xinxin everywhere I go?
The female celebrity who was sharing details of the gossip she had just heard glanced in Xia Chuyue's direction when she heard her words.
Xia Xinxin immediately noticed that it was Xia Chuyue, and the smile on her lips became somewhat stiff.
The female celebrity, however, had a bright eye and nudged Xia Xinxin's arm.
"Xin Xin, can you hear me too?"
As more and more celebrities in the entertainment industry heard Xia Chuyue's heartfelt words, they all tacitly stopped mentioning it, afraid of revealing anything, and only subtly confirmed it with their eyes each time.
If it weren't for Xia Xinxin's confused look, the female celebrity wouldn't have said that.
Xia Xinxin frowned slightly upon hearing the female celebrity's words.
"What did you hear?"
Are you talking about the gossip about the Zhao family?
But it doesn't quite look like it?
This was the first time the female celebrity had encountered an artist who couldn't hear Xia Chuyue's thoughts, and her expression couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.
"That's it..."
She couldn't reveal it directly, so she could only hint at it, giving Xia Xinxin several more glances.
Xia Xinxin, who couldn't understand what she was doing at all, blinked in confusion.
What happened to your eyes?
Once she confirmed that Xia Xinxin really couldn't hear, the female celebrity quickly composed herself and dared not reveal anything more.
Once the system realizes it has exposed its existence, all the celebrity's dark history, down to the last detail, will be exposed as well. :)
Although she is not a good person, she should not be made a sinner in the entertainment industry for all time!
Seeing that the female celebrity had closed her mouth again, Xia Xinxin felt that something was strange.
She felt she had missed something and was anxious, but no matter how she tried to find out indirectly, the other celebrities were like mutes who wouldn't say anything!
Of course, this concerns his own reputation and that of the entertainment industry!
Celebrities may love gossip and joining in the fun, but they're not stupid and wouldn't want to expose their drama to others!
Unable to glean any information, Xia Xinxin could only frown and walk towards the center of the banquet hall.
Her attendance at this banquet today was planned.
Walking over to Pei Qi, who was sitting in the corner of the sofa, Xia Xinxin composed herself and gave him a sweet and charming smile.
Today, she specially wore a pure and innocent makeup look that suited her, and a newly released gold-plated floor-length fishtail dress with countless beautiful roses embroidered on the hem.
Xia Xinxin has managed to become a new generation of popular and pure goddess, and her face is indeed very striking.
She held a glass of red wine, turned to the side to show her beautiful profile, and greeted Pei Qi.
"Pei Qi, what a coincidence, to meet you here again."
Pei Qi had just made up his mind in the elevator that he would never look at Xia Chuyue again.
But ever since Xia Chuyue came down from upstairs eating melons, Pei Qi's gaze has been intentionally or unintentionally falling on Xia Chuyue.
Once Xia Chuyue looked over, Pei Qi would pretend to look away, exuding an air of nonchalant indifference.
Xia Xinxin greeted Pei Qi, but Pei Qi acted as if he hadn't heard her and completely ignored her.
Xia Xinxin's beautiful smile almost crumbled under Pei Qi's silent indifference.
The young masters next to him exchanged glances and playfully nudged Pei Qi's arm.
"Young Master Pei, you've got some ladies' love here! Who are you looking at so intently?"
Pei Qi quickly withdrew his gaze from Xia Chuyue, his expression lazy and indifferent, and glanced at his friend who had spoken.
"Nothing, who are you?"
Pei Qi rested his chin on one hand, while impatiently twirling a wine glass with the other, the red wine inside rippling in circles as he turned it.
Xia Xinxin noticed that Pei Qi had forgotten about her, and an awkward expression appeared for a moment, but she immediately put on a smile again.
"Young Master Pei, have you forgotten? We met in the restaurant's parking garage a few days ago and there was an misunderstanding. I apologize to you here."
Pei Qi truly doesn't remember Xia Xinxin.
He gave an "oh" and waved his hand dismissively.
"Okay, get out... go now."
Everyone present was an acquaintance, and Pei Qi restrained himself from directly saying the word "get lost."
Otherwise, if things get messy, his dad will beat him again when he gets back.
Xia Xinxin's smile completely vanished at this moment.
The second-generation rich kids watching from the sidelines couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Young Master Pei, she's at least a delicate young lady, don't be so clueless about romance."
"Exactly, if you really scare that girl to tears, who would want to date a sharp-tongued Buddha like you?"
Hearing someone speak up for her, Xia Xinxin pursed her lips slightly and widened her eyes slightly.
"I'm sorry, I may have disturbed you. Young Master Pei is in a bad mood, but it's alright, I understand."
Pei Qi felt there was something strange about those words, and he frowned slightly, a hint of annoyance flashing in his eyes.
"What do you understand? I don't even know you, yet you talk as if we're old friends."
Pei Qi never showed pity for those he didn't care about. He waved his hand impatiently, as if shooing away a fly, and told Xia Xinxin to leave.
"Get out of here!"
Even with her excellent disguise, Xia Xinxin's facial expression couldn't hold up any longer.
She clutched the cup tightly, and without even saying goodbye, fled in a panic.
If she stayed any longer, she was afraid that Pei Qi's cold and sharp tongue would make her cry!
Feeling suffocated and uncomfortable, Xia Xinxin walked to the dining table, slammed her cup down, and looked ashamed and indignant.
How could Pei Qi be so clueless about romance?!
No wonder I've always heard about his romantic scandals. With a personality like that, it would be a miracle if he could even get a girlfriend!
Xia Xinxin was feeling annoyed and angry. Her gaze passed through the crowd and landed on Pei Qi, who was leaning back lazily.
Pei Qi has a cold and arrogant personality, but as a scion carefully raised by a noble family, he exudes an air of aloofness that keeps strangers at bay.
Among the group of wealthy second-generation young masters present, Pei Qi was handsome and had a straight back. Although his temperament was rather bad, he was far superior to the other second-generation young masters!
Xia Xinxin's former brother, Xia Chen, was an outstanding individual among his peers. With Xia Chen as her role model, Xia Xinxin could never look down on the extravagant and dissolute second-generation rich kids.
Only Pei Qi could compare to him.
As Xia Xinxin thought this, she secretly strengthened her confidence.
She absolutely has to win over Pei Qi!
Just as Xia Xinxin was thinking about how to get close to Pei Qi again, she looked up and saw her former nemesis—
Bai Rui, the youngest daughter of the Bai family.
Xia Chuyue, who was searching for gossip to share, suddenly smelled a big juicy story and abruptly looked up at Xia Xinxin.
Good, good, it's Xia Xinxin who came to deliver the melon!
