Su Xi slipped into the restroom, and Fu Yu quickly followed.
He closed the door and asked in a low voice, "Boss, why are you so late?"
Su Xi pinched the bridge of her nose. Could she say that she had just been poked by a mad dog for an hour and even had her branded with a special mark?
"Why is Zhou Jingming in the private room?" Su Xi changed the subject.
"I was just about to tell you that the information was wrong, and the person is in room 1302."
Without saying a word, Su Xi took out her lipstick from her bag and touched up her makeup.
Her lips, slightly swollen from being brutally ravaged, looked even more alluring and seductive in this description; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a fairy.
Fu Yu felt something was off and wanted to ask something, but Su Xi had already walked out of the restroom.
Room 1302.
Su Xi carefully pushed open the door.
In that vast space, there wasn't a soul in sight, not even a fly.
Su Xi realized she had fallen into a trap and hastily retreated.
Just then, two bodyguards in black rushed in from outside and blocked her way.
Seeing that things were not going well, Su Xi smiled sweetly, "I'm looking for Young Master Zhou."
After saying that, she pushed the man aside and walked out, saying, "I think I remembered wrong, Young Master Zhou is in the next room."
The bodyguard knew her identity and did not make things difficult for her, letting her leave.
As soon as she left, the bodyguard immediately dialed a number. "Sir, the Thousand Nights Pavilion Master still hasn't shown up, but Miss Su just came in."
In the next private room, Zhou Jingming leaned casually against the wall, his eyes narrowing slightly.
It was a coincidence.
Both times it seemed deliberate.
This woman seems to be quite something.
"Keep an eye on Su Xi and report to me at any time."
At the corner, Su Xi leaned against the wall, squinting as she observed the two rooms.
It's neither in 1301 nor 1302.
It seems this was a play orchestrated by Mr. Jiu.
Please step into the urn.
The other party was just waiting for her to take the bait. If they continued searching, they would likely expose their identity.
Su Xi dared not take the risk.
As she turned to leave the bar, several figures suddenly appeared and blocked her way.
She was familiar with the woman in the lead.
Her dear older sister, Su Rou.
She probably had a drunken outburst last night, and it was this older sister who was responsible.
A group of socialites saw Su Xi and made sarcastic remarks.
[Hey, isn't this that C-list nobody, here at Blue Charm looking for resources again?]
Using fake news to whitewash one's image—that's quite something.
Everyone knows what kind of person Zhou Shao is; how could he possibly register a marriage with her?
[You were just trying to latch onto Young Master Zhou, and then you got dumped, right?]
...
Su Xi curled her lips and raised an eyebrow with a smile, "My husband and I are still newlyweds, we're too busy being together to leave me out."
The news has already spread online.
Everyone treated it as a joke.
Everyone knows that Zhou Jingming has been a playboy for many years and would never give up the entire garden for a single flower.
Marry Su Xi?
Impossible!
The socialites unanimously believed that it was a tactic Su Xi used to clear her name and didn't take it seriously at all.
"You're shameless. You call me 'husband' after sleeping with me for one night. Young Master Zhou would never like a woman like you."
"If he doesn't like me, does he like you guys?" Su Xi covered her lips and laughed.
"Don't talk about Xi'er like that, she's not that kind of person," a gentle female voice interjected.
Standing among the socialites, Su Rou's delicate and charming appearance truly resembled a white lotus from the Tianshan Mountains.
Su Xi was disgusted.
Her older sister is two-faced, playing everyone around her like a puppet.
Fans who like Su Rou are even more mindless, calling her "Jade Girl Sister".
Because of Su Rou, she was abused by the Su family for ten years.
When Su Rou was a child, she got lost in an accident at an amusement park, and everyone blamed her for it.
The mother, Li Xuemei, focused all her attention on the missing Su Rou, ignoring her completely and letting the nanny treat her coldly and abusively.
Every year on Su Rou's birthday, she is made to kneel before Su Rou's memorial tablet for three days and three nights.
Not a drop of water or rice was given to them.
She even had to earn her school fees by modeling and taking on advertising jobs!
But only she remembered that Su Rou was crying and making a fuss about going to the amusement park, and Su Rou was the one who shook off the nanny and left her on the side of the road. As a result, she was kidnapped by human traffickers.
A family with so many adults and a nanny.
However, the blame was placed on her, a six-year-old child.
This is the most ridiculous thing in the world.
Su Xi crossed her arms and leaned against the wall, staring at Su Rou's 'harmless' face.
Su Rou took the initiative to come back a few months ago, and as soon as she returned, she cried and told me how much she had suffered outside.
They want money, goods, and resources, and they especially love to take her things.
It seems they want to kick her out of the public eye now.
"Sister, aren't you tired of pretending for so many years?" Su Xi suddenly leaned close to Su Rou's ear and smiled playfully.
Su Rou's face paled, her eyes filled with an innocent light. "Xi'er, what are you saying? What am I pretending for?"
"Do I need to point them out one by one?" Su Xi asked sinisterly, her wicked and evil appearance making her seem like a demon.
Su Rou's friend couldn't stand it anymore and stood in front of her, saying, "Su Xi, don't go too far. Su Rou is clean and kind, not as dirty as you."
Su Xi chuckled, "Oh, right, sister is a jade maiden."
"Good to know. Now kneel down and apologize to Su Rou, or we'll spread your shameful secrets and make sure you're never able to make it back to the bottom of the entertainment industry."
Su Xi blinked. "What shameful things have I done? Tell me."
A socialite scoffed, "She seduced Young Master Zhou and even spread rumors of her marriage. What do you think Young Master Zhou would do if he found out?"
"Let me explain things to you. With such a big fuss about it online, do you really think Young Master Zhou is blind and doesn't know anything about it?"
"That's because Young Master Zhou is magnanimous and won't hold it against you."
Su Xi shook her head, took out the red marriage certificate from her bag, and spread it out. "Open your eyes and take a look. It has the official seal of the Civil Affairs Bureau. It's genuine."
The socialites were all dumbfounded.
The marriage certificate is genuine.
Did Su Xi and Zhou Shao really get their marriage certificate?
But soon, the socialites started to say sarcastically, "You must have used some tricks to get Young Master Zhou to marry you."
"Young Master Zhou only has a three-hour attention span for women. Once that time is up, he can still get a divorce even if he gets married!"
"Waiting for the divorce."
"Ha ha!"
A group of people, not wanting to miss out on trouble, even went to comment on the trending topics.
The phrase "waiting for the divorce" became a trending topic, with the entire internet laughing at Su Xi.
At that moment, a tall, imposing figure emerged from the private room, accompanied by a woman.
A rising starlet who's currently enjoying immense popularity.
Qiao Xing!
