Chapter 300 Sad Face
The next morning, the news of President Huo and the daughter of the Lin family having a late-night date made headlines in Chengdu.
Paparazzi photographed the two of them coming out of the hotel late at night, and then the Lin family's daughter got into Huo Yunting's car and left together.
As soon as this news came out, people from all over Chengdu's upper class society were discussing it.
"Wasn't Huo Yunting proposing to Chi Muzhen not long ago? How come he's already with the Lin family's daughter in less than a month?"
"It seems like they broke up a while ago, but Chi Muzhen was much quicker than Huo Yunting. Didn't she get together with Qi Yunzhe a few days ago?"
"Young people nowadays really don't take relationships seriously at all. They start and end relationships so casually!"
…
Chi Muzhen also saw the news. She clicked on the photo and confirmed that the man in the photo was indeed Huo Yunting. Her mood suddenly plummeted.
She wanted to draw a clear line between herself and Huo Yunting and didn't want him to bother her, but after she really did it, the pain in her heart almost overwhelmed her.
She closed the webpage and forced herself not to think about Huo Yunting anymore.
“Buzz buzz buzz!”
Qi Yunzhe called in.
"Mu Zhen, Yun Ting has booked the Rongcheng Hotel tonight to celebrate being with the daughter of the Lin family. He's planning to treat us to a meal. Do you want to go?"
Anyone can see that Huo Yunting's ultimate goal is Chi Muzhen.
"I'm not feeling well, so I won't be coming over. Have fun, you guys."
After hanging up the phone, Chi Muzhen turned off her phone directly, not wanting to hear any more news about Huo Yunting.
However, even if she didn't want to pay attention to Huo Yunting, news about him continued to reach her ears.
I heard that he invested 1 billion in Lin's company, I heard that he accompanied Miss Lin on a trip to the Maldives, I heard that he gave Miss Lin more than a dozen villas, and I heard that he proposed to Miss Lin in the Aegean.
All of a sudden, Chi Muzhen's past became a joke to everyone.
Chi Muzhen didn't care about these things, but when Chen Tian heard others say that Chi Muzhen was abandoned by Huo Yunting, she couldn't help but retort, but was ridiculed.
Shen Tian angrily went to find Chi Muzhen and told her about this.
"Those people are completely clueless. It was you who broke up with him, and now everyone's saying you were dumped!"
Chi Muzhen said calmly without any emotion: "The mouth is on someone else's body, can you sew their mouth shut? Let them say whatever they want, just don't pay attention to it."
"No, I'm still very angry and I have to spend some money to calm myself down. You go shopping with me tonight!"
Chi Muzhen couldn't help but smile and nodded, "Okay."
After Shen Tian left, she sent a message to Qi Yunzhe, saying that she would have dinner with Shen Tian tonight and asked him not to come and pick her up.
Qi Yunzhe quickly replied with a "OK". Chi Muzhen put down her phone and looked at the documents again but couldn't concentrate.
She rubbed her temples and felt that she had been too busy recently. She needed to find some time to take a few days off and go out to relax.
Soon it was evening time to get off work, and Chi Muzhen and Chen Tian went to a newly opened Western restaurant to eat steak.
Halfway through the meal, Huo Yunting and Lin Zhi walked into the restaurant together.
Lin Zhi and Shen Tian were in the same circle. She noticed Shen Tian with her sharp eyes and said to Huo Yunting with a smile: “I saw an acquaintance. Come with me to say hello.”
Huo Yunting said "hmm" indifferently and followed Lin Zhi over.
Chen Tian was telling Chi Muzhen that the waiter who served the food was very handsome, when she suddenly noticed two people standing next to her. She turned around and her expression changed immediately.
Lin Zhi was very calm and composed, as if she had no idea about Chi Muzhen and Huo Yunting's past. She smiled and said, "Miss Chen, Miss Chi, you are also having dinner here tonight. What a coincidence!"
Shen Tian looked indifferent, “Yeah.”
Lin Zhi held Huo Yunting's hand and said happily, "Yunting and I just came back from the Aegean Sea. I heard that this restaurant is newly opened. Yunting knows that I like Western food, so he brought me here to try it."
Hearing the boasting in her tone, Shen Tian silently rolled her eyes.
"Ms. Lin, we haven't finished eating yet."
Meaning, you can go now.
Lin Zhi smiled apologetically and nodded, "Okay, let's talk next time."
From beginning to end, Chi Muzhen never looked up at the two of them, and his expression was calm, as if he were a stranger.
Huo Yunting's gaze did not linger on her at all. He turned around and left with Lin Zhi.
Chen Tian stared at the backs of the two men, cutting steak while saying viciously: "Scumbag! Why weren't you so considerate when we were together before!"
Chi Muzhen looked up at the steak that she had cut into pieces, sighed, and said, "You ruined such a good piece of steak."
Chen Tian glared at her and said unhappily, "Is that the point?! Huo Yunting, that scumbag, is driving me crazy! I feel like even shopping can't make me happy!"
Chi Muzhen couldn't help but smile, "I didn't say anything, why are you more excited than me?"
"Aren't you angry at all?!"
"What's there to be angry about? It's not like he cheated on me when we were together. I have no right to interfere with who he dated after we broke up. Besides, to be honest, Qi Yunzhe and I were together first."
"Yours is fake! How can this be the same?!" Chen Tian threw the knife and fork on the table, "I'm not eating anymore. I'm so angry!"
"Okay, don't be angry, I really don't care, I'm going to the bathroom."
Chi Muzhen stood up and walked towards the bathroom, the smile on her face gradually faded.
After using the restroom and washing my hands, I happened to meet Lin Zhi.
Chi Muzhen looked indifferent. She wiped her hands with a tissue and was about to leave, but unexpectedly Lin Zhi stopped her.
"Miss Chi, I want to talk to you."
Turning around, he saw Lin Zhi looking at him with a smile on her face, but there was no emotion in Chi Muzhen's eyes.
"What does Miss Lin want to talk about?"
"Apart from Yun Ting, there doesn't seem to be anything else to talk about between us."
Chi Muzhen frowned, "I have broken up with him."
Lin Zhi nodded. "I know. I think a good ex should be as dead as possible and never appear in other people's world again. What do you think, Miss Chi?"
Chi Muzhen's eyes turned cold, "Miss Lin wants me to leave Rongcheng?"
"That's not my intention. I just hope that Miss Chi can avoid Yun Ting and me when she sees us in the future. I don't want to see people I don't want to see."
Lin Zhi's eyes were full of pampering. She looked like a rich girl who had been spoiled and had hardly experienced any setbacks.
"Ms. Lin, I don't seem to have any obligation to avoid you. If you really don't want to see me, I suggest you poke your eyes out so you won't see me again."
Chi Muzhen turned around and took a few steps forward when she saw a tall figure standing at the corner. She had no idea when he had come or how much he had heard.
She paused for a moment, then looked away expressionlessly and walked away quickly.
