Chapter 22 Heartache
Chi Muzhen nodded without hesitation, "Shouldn't I doubt you? After all, I offended the person you like. It's normal for you to be angry and want to vent your anger on her behalf and do this."
Anger flashed in Huo Yunting's eyes, "In your heart, am I this kind of person?!"
Chi Muzhen didn't say anything, and Huo Yunting felt a surge of anger and powerlessness in his heart.
She never believed him!
Just when the atmosphere between the two of them reached a freezing point, a servant from the Chi family came over and said, "Miss, the old lady wants you to come over and explain this matter yourself."
Chi Muzhen looked indifferent, "What's there to explain? What you saw is the truth."
The servant's face was a little ugly, and her tone was somewhat dissatisfied. "Miss, because of this matter, the old lady is so angry that she has already taken several quick-acting heart pills. If you don't go over and explain, the old lady will definitely be even angrier."
Before Chi Muzhen could say anything, someone suddenly grabbed her wrist.
By the time she reacted, Huo Yunting had already dragged her a few steps forward.
Chi Muzhen frowned and looked at Huo Yunting, saying coldly: "Huo Yunting, what are you doing?! Let me go!"
Chi Xuan, who was standing by, quickly ran over to stop Huo Yunting, her eyes filled with worry. "Brother Yunting, what are you going to do? Although I was wrong in this matter, explaining now will only make things worse. Why don't you let me leave first?"
Chi Muzhen looked at Chi Xuan coldly. She didn't believe that what happened today had nothing to do with Chi Xuan.
Letting myself go first now is probably also to discredit myself later.
"Chi Xuan, you don't need to pretend to be a good person here. If I find out that what happened today has anything to do with you, I will definitely not let you go!"
Chi Xuan's eyes flashed, and she looked at Chi Muzhen with a face full of grievance, "Sister, I'm doing everything for your own good, why do you still think so badly of me? It's not me who asked you to go to the bar and order a male model. Even if you're angry about this being exposed, you can't take it out on me!"
At this moment, Xu Rou also walked over to Chi Xuan, looked at Chi Muzhen with disgust and said, "You are so shameless that you get involved with that kind of questionable man, and now you have the nerve to frame Xuan Xuan! How could I give birth to such a scoundrel like you!"
Chi Xuan quickly grabbed Xu Rou and said in a generous tone, "Mom, it doesn't matter if I'm wronged. It's just that my sister's reputation might be ruined."
"Even if it's ruined, it's her own fault. It has nothing to do with you!"
Seeing Xu Rou and Chi Xuan singing in unison, Chi Muzhen would have wanted to applaud them if Huo Yunting hadn't still held her hand.
Huo Yunting didn't even look at Chi Xuan, and directly pulled Chi Muzhen to the center of the stage.
Everyone looked at Huo Yunting in surprise, not knowing what he was going to do.
Chi Muzhen looked at Huo Yunting with a mocking expression, "It seems you really love Chi Xuan terribly. It's not enough to put the surveillance video on the big screen, you also want to drag me in front of everyone and make me embarrass myself again!"
Chi Xuan, who was standing by, thought the same thing. Huo Yunting must have felt that Chi Muzhen was embarrassing and wanted to distance himself from her in public.
The next second, Huo Yunting's words made her freeze in place.
"Just now, Mrs. Chi said she wanted an explanation. My wife can give it to me, but she's afraid your Chi family can't afford it!"
The moment the words fell, everyone exploded.
"Did I hear correctly?! Aren't Huo Yunting and Chi Xuan a couple?! Why are you saying Chi Muzhen is his wife now?!"
"Just now I thought Chi Muzhen was the third party, but it turns out Chi Xuan is the mistress. She knew Chi Muzhen and Huo Yunting were already married, but she was still entangled with her brother-in-law. She is simply a green tea woman!"
"Isn't the most shocking thing that Huo Yunting saw Chi Muzhen feeding the male model fruit and was able to so calmly say that the two were married?!"
…
Chi Xuan's face was as pale as paper and her whole body was shaking uncontrollably. She didn't expect Huo Yunting to publicly admit that he and Chi Muzhen were married.
Doesn't he dislike Chi Muzhen? !
Why? !
When Xu Rou saw the sadness on Chi Xuan's face, she felt extremely distressed and hurriedly supported Chi Xuan's shaky body.
"Xuanxuan, don't be sad. Huo Yunting must not want the Chi family to continue to lose face, so he deliberately said this in front of everyone!"
Hearing this, Chi Xuan seemed to have grasped the last piece of driftwood and nodded unconsciously: "Yes, it must be like this... Brother Yun Ting can't possibly like me... We are a couple!"
Mr. Chi and Mrs. Chi looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
They have always believed that Huo Yunting and Chi Muzhen have a bad relationship. Now that Chi Xuan is back, the two will definitely get divorced, so they dare to belittle and plot against Chi Muzhen so unscrupulously. If Huo Yunting has feelings for Chi Muzhen, they will have to reconsider!
Soon, Mr. Chi reacted and hurriedly said to Huo Yunting, "Mr. Huo, you are too serious. We just think there may be some misunderstanding here, so we want Mu Zhen to come over and explain to the guests to prevent them from misunderstanding Mu Zhen!"
Huo Yunting's expression was icy as he spoke word by word, "What misunderstanding?! I was at the bar that day too. She and I were having a conflict, so she deliberately ordered a male model to piss me off. Do I need to explain to you the romantic interests between us as a couple?!
Who cares so much about our relationship? How about we install a surveillance camera in my house and have you watch us 24 hours a day?!"
His cold gaze swept across the crowd, and those who were seen by him lowered their heads, not daring to look him in the eye.
Who dares to say anything now? If Huo Yunting gets unhappy, he can bankrupt their family in a minute. They must be crazy to keep holding on to this matter.
In private, those socialite wives and company bosses spend much more money than this, but it has not been exposed.
The banquet hall was completely silent, and no one dared to breathe, fearing that Huo Yunting would notice them.
After the initial shock, Chi Muzhen calmed down, shook off Huo Yunting's hand, and walked quickly towards the door of the banquet hall.
Huo Yunting frowned, then quickly followed.
Chi Xuan bit her lip and chased after him.
As soon as he reached the door, Huo Yunting was stopped by Chi Xuan.
She looked at Huo Yunting with tears on her face, "Brother Yunting, are you in love with me?"
Huo Yunting's eyes flashed with displeasure, and he said coldly: "Xuanxuan, this is a matter between me and Chi Muzhen, it has nothing to do with you."
"How can it not be related?!"
Chi Xuan was nearly emotionally broken, tears streaming down her face. "We were clearly a couple, but she took advantage of your car accident and swooped in. You haven't announced your marriage in the past three years, wasn't it just to wait for me?!"
Huo Yunting was silent for a few seconds, then he looked at Chi Xuan calmly and said, "At first I did want to wait for you, but then I gradually stopped thinking about it. Xuanxuan, you will meet someone better."
"You are the best one, Brother Yunting. I know you still love me! So I won't give up!"
Huo Yunting frowned, "You are still young, there is no need to waste your time..."
Chi Xuan interrupted him coldly, saying word by word: "This is not a waste of time. I will not fall in love with anyone else except you!"
Seeing Chi Xuan's determined eyes, Huo Yunting's eyes turned colder and he left without saying anything else.
Huo Yunting returned to the villa and saw Chi Muzhen sitting on the sofa in the living room. Anger flashed in his eyes, "Why didn't you wait for me to come back?!"
Chi Muzhen didn't answer, but looked at him calmly, "Huo Yunting, let's talk."
Huo Yunting walked over and sat down opposite Chi Muzhen, his eyes filled with frost.
"What do you want to talk about?"
