Chapter 133: A Variety of Things
There was a flash of panic in Chi Xuan's eyes, but she still tried her best to calm herself down.
She looked at Fan Rao with cold eyes and spoke slowly, "Ms. Fan, I don't know why you say that, but I'm sure Elia is a woman in her forties. If you don't believe me, I can ask her to take a photo with me next time we meet."
Xu Rou's face was also filled with anger, and she said in a cold voice: "Miss Fan, since you are a guest, I don't want to argue with you, but if you want to cause trouble, our Chi family is not afraid of you!"
There was no expression on Fan Rao's face, but his tone was full of contempt.
"There's one thing I haven't told you yet. After our game today, you and I were waiting for the results in the lounge. The results came out around four in the afternoon. I asked my dad, and Elia left around two. How could you have possibly seen her?"
Based on these two things, Fan Rao was certain that Chi Xuan must be lying!
Chi Xuan's face turned pale. She really didn't know Elia, but she couldn't admit it now, otherwise she would become the laughing stock of everyone.
Her eyes were filled with tears, and she looked at Fan Rao with a look of grievance and said, "Ms. Fan, I don't know why you are questioning me like this? Is it because I won first place in the design competition, and you only got third place? Are you jealous of me, so you deliberately made a scene at my celebration party?"
Fan Rao sneered, his eyes full of contempt and disdain, and threw the fake signature directly to the ground.
"What should I be jealous of? Jealous of you for lying? If you hadn't lied to others about knowing Elia and even made a fake signature to fool us, I wouldn't even bother with you!"
If it was something else, it might be fine, but she was flaunting herself in the name of knowing her idol, and Fan Rao couldn't stand it.
"Do you have any evidence to prove that the signature I gave you was fake? And how do you prove that what you said is true? You said she was in her twenties, so is she really in her twenties?"
"This design competition was hosted by the Fan family, and she was the judge. I asked my dad, and he told me this. Could it be possible that my dad could lie to me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone present looked at Chi Xuan with a changed expression.
The Fan family must have met Elia, so there is no need for them to lie about this matter. Moreover, if Chi Xuan really knew Elia, she would immediately contact him to testify for herself and would not say nothing.
Xu Rou's face suddenly turned red when she noticed that her poker friends were looking at her with contempt and disdain, and she unconsciously looked at Chi Xuan.
"Xuanxuan, please explain quickly. The signature you gave me is real, right?"
Chi Xuan bit her lower lip and was about to speak when someone in the crowd suddenly said, "I remember JM was a brand founded by Elia. Manager Chen must know Elia. Why don't we just call Manager Chen and ask him and find out who's lying?"
Upon hearing this, Chi Xuan's face turned pale. If she really called Chen Wenya, she would definitely not be able to hide the fact that she didn't know Elia.
When Xu Rou saw Chi Xuan's expression, she knew that her signature was fake.
A surge of anger surged in her heart. She didn't expect Chi Xuan to do such a thing and embarrass her in front of so many people!
However, at this point, even if she knew that Chi Xuan was lying, she couldn't let this matter be exposed.
But Fan Rao didn't give them any time to react and called Chen Wenya right away.
"Hello, Manager Chen. I'm Fan Rao. Someone used Elia's fake signature and said she was in her forties, but as far as I know, she's only in her twenties, right?"
After Fan Rao asked the question, she turned on the speakerphone and everyone's eyes were immediately fixed on her phone.
Soon, Chen Wenya's voice came over.
"Hello, Ms. Fan. Elia is indeed in her twenties. Could you please tell me the name of the scammer who used Elia's fake signature? I'll contact Elia to see if I should sue her."
Fan Rao raised an eyebrow and said, "This is not very convenient. As long as Elia's age is confirmed, the other party will not be able to lie anymore. Thank you, Manager Chen."
After hanging up the phone, Fan Rao looked at Chi Xuan with a smile, "Miss Chi, do you have anything else to quibble with?"
Chi Xuan's face was pale, and she stared at Fan Rao with hatred and anger, but she couldn't say a word.
Although Xu Rou's poker friends didn't say anything, one could tell from their expressions that they would definitely laugh at her behind her back again.
For a moment, the entire banquet hall was extremely quiet.
Finally, it was Fan Rao who spoke first: "I won't bother you any more. I wish you all a good time tonight."
Aunt Wang also quickly said: "Forget it, everyone, don't take it to heart. After all, Xuanxuan is still a child. It's normal for her to be proud sometimes. Let's talk about something else."
The atmosphere gradually began to liven up, but Xu Rou and Chi Xuan both knew that they had completely lost face tonight.
Xu Rou suppressed her anger until the guests left, then she slapped Chi Xuan.
"mom!"
Chi Xuan covered her face with her hands and exclaimed in surprise, looking at Xu Xurou in disbelief, her eyes full of grievance and confusion.
"Why did you hit me?"
Chi Zhen, who was standing by, was also shocked. "Xu Rou, are you crazy?!"
Xu Rou sneered and gritted her teeth, "It would be fine if you didn't know Elia, but you even made a fake signature to deceive me and embarrassed me in front of all the guests. Xuanxuan, how did you become like this!"
Chi Xuan looked aggrieved and cried, "Mom, I didn't want to disappoint you, but I didn't expect Fan Rao to be so ruthless and expose me in public. I'm sorry for embarrassing you..."
Chi Zhen was surprised and frowned, "What fake signature?"
At that time, he was busy discussing business with his partners and didn't pay any attention to them at all.
Xu Rou sneered, told Chi Zhen what happened, and then went back to the bedroom angrily.
Chi Zhen was silent for a while, then looked at Chi Xuan and said, "Xuanxuan, this is not a big deal. Don't take it to heart. Everyone will forget about it after a while."
Chi Xuan nodded, lowered her eyes and said, "Dad, I understand."
"Well, I still have work to do, so I won't be back tonight. Go to bed early."
After Chi Zhen left, Chi Xuan returned to the bedroom with a gloomy face, feeling angry and unhappy.
It was Xu Rou who forced her to ask for an autograph, but now she blames everything on her!
“Buzz buzz buzz!”
The phone beside her suddenly rang. Seeing that it was Bai Xue Ning, whom she hadn't contacted for a long time, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
As soon as the call was connected, Bai Xuening's smiling voice came over.
"Xuanxuan, I heard you won the national design competition. Congratulations!"
"Xue Ning, thank you. How are you doing in the entertainment industry lately?"
"It's pretty good. I've been filming a few dramas recently and have hired an acting instructor. After the dramas are aired, it should be easier to get more roles in the future."
Chi Xuan lowered her eyes and smiled, "That's great. You're so beautiful, you'll definitely be a big star in the entertainment industry."
"Hahaha, I'll just take your good wishes. I have a night scene later, so I'll go put on makeup first. Bye!"
After hanging up the phone, Chi Xuan opened the chat box between herself and Huo Yunting. He didn't come to the banquet today and didn't send her any congratulations.
It seems that his heart is completely on Chi Muzhen's side.
She stared at the screen with cold eyes for a long time, and after a long time, a sneer slowly appeared at the corner of her mouth. Even if she died, she would not let Huo Yunting and Chi Muzhen be together!
On the other side, Chi Muzhen was about to go to bed after taking a shower when she received a call from Shen Tian.
"Zhenzhen, I have something interesting to tell you."
