Chapter 520: Outdated Yellow Flowers
Thinking of this, she unconsciously clenched her hands hanging at her sides, and a hint of determination slowly flashed in her eyes.
Soon it was night, the Li family's house was brightly lit, and there were people in elegant clothes and drinking.
Chi Siyi walked among business celebrities and wives and socialites with a smile on her face.
However, her eyes were fixed on the door, afraid of missing the moment when Huo Yunting and Xiao Muzhen came in.
At around eight o'clock, Xiao Muzhen finally took Huo Yunting's hand and walked into the Li family's old house.
She wore a goose yellow strapless long dress tonight, with her long hair tied behind her head. She looked like a yellow rose bud about to bloom, fresh and elegant.
As soon as the two stepped into the living room, they attracted a lot of people's attention. After all, their looks are very good and are not inferior to the stars in the entertainment industry.
When she saw Xiao Muzhen, the smile on Chi Siyi's face suddenly deepened. After saying something to the rich lady who was chatting, she turned around and walked quickly towards the two of them.
"Mr. Huo, Ms. Xiao, welcome!"
Huo Yunting and Xiao Muzhen turned around at the same time and saw Chi Siyi walking towards them with a smile on her face, with some surprise in their eyes.
After standing in front of the two people, Chi Siyi smiled and said, "Mr. Huo, the men will mainly discuss business on the left, and the women will mainly have tea and chat on the right. I'll take Zhenzhen over there."
Xiao Muzhen looked at her calmly, "Good evening, Madam Li Er. I can go by myself. No need to trouble you. Please go and entertain other guests."
Chi Siyi held her hand, with a hint of reproach in her eyes, "I'm your aunt, and you're still talking about Madam Li Er? Isn't this too distant?"
Xiao Muzhen felt a little puzzled by Chi Siyi's sudden enthusiasm. If she remembered correctly, Chi Siyi seemed to have always looked down on her. So when she returned to the Chi family, the Chi family held a banquet to welcome her back, but Chi Siyi only gave her a perfunctory jade bracelet and didn't even show up.
Now that he's suddenly being so attentive, I feel like there's something wrong.
She pulled her hand away, a distant smile on her face. "Second Madam Li, I'm no longer a member of the Chi family. We can't really be considered a family."
The smile on Chi Siyi's face faded a little, and a hint of guilt flashed in her eyes.
"Zhenzhen, are you still blaming me? I didn't know your parents were so partial to your sister. If I had known earlier, I would have stopped them. But now that you're with Mr. Huo, it's finally over."
Xiao Muzhen didn't want to play along, so she looked up at Huo Yunting and said, "I saw Xie Fu over there. I'll go talk to her. You can go and talk about business."
"good."
Seeing Huo Yunting nod, Xiao Muzhen let go of his hand and turned to walk towards Xie Fu.
Huo Yunting didn't even look at Chi Siyi and turned away.
Seeing Chi Siyi's frustration, Madam Li walked over with a smile and said sarcastically, "Sister-in-law, how did you flatter the horse and end up hitting its leg? If you want Xiao Muzhen to pay attention to you, you'll have to travel back ten years, right?"
The Li family also knew that Xiao Muzhen was called back by the Chi family. At that time, the Li family disliked the Chi family, so when the Chi family held a welcome party for Xiao Muzhen, no one from the Li family went.
What was unexpected was that Chi Siyi, Xiao Muzhen's aunt, did not go either.
Before, the Chi family was not as good as the Li family, so it was normal for Chi Siyi to look down on Xiao Muzhen. But now that Xiao Muzhen has become the adopted daughter of the Xiao family and is together with the president of the Huo group, it has become that Chi Siyi is not worthy of Xiao Muzhen.
Chi Siyi glanced at Madam Li coldly. Her family was better than the Chi family and could provide great help to Young Master Li, so she always looked down on others at home and never took others seriously.
"Sister-in-law, this is my family affair and it seems to have nothing to do with you."
"Hahaha, this is hilarious. Xiao Muzhen shouldn't have anything to do with you now, right? How can you talk about family matters?"
She was about to applaud Chi Siyi's shamelessness. Now that she saw that Xiao Muzhen had a powerful backer, she treated the other party as a family member. But in the past, she was unwilling to even look at him.
Chi Siyi's face turned pale, and she warned in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, don't forget what Dad said this morning. Do you want to be kicked out of the Li family by Dad?"
"Haha, don't worry. If Dad knew we had a fight, I wouldn't be the one kicked out. After all, it's not like I can't give birth to a son. I can't even control my own husband!"
After saying that, Madam Li turned around and left with a smug smile.
Chi Siyi stared at her back, her eyes filled with resentment and anger.
This woman is just a reincarnation better than her, and she can't compare to her in anything else. What qualifications does she have to point fingers in front of her!
She took a deep breath and forced a smile, constantly telling herself not to get angry. As long as she could let Xiao Muzhen vent her anger, she would definitely find a way to make Xiao Muzhen recognize her as her aunt.
By then, she would be showing her displeasure to others!
On the other side, after Xiao Muzhen found Xie Fu, they each took a cocktail and found a corner to sit down.
Xie Fu took a sip of wine and raised an eyebrow. "I just saw Madam Li Er talking to you. Does she want to talk to you about something?"
Xiao Muzhen looked indifferent, "It's okay, I just said hello."
"That's good. It's best not to get too close to her. She's notorious in the industry for being greedy and forgetting her principles. Many wealthy wives don't like her. But she's quite capable and does well in business, so most people will still give her some face."
Xiao Muzhen smiled and said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, I'm not someone who can be easily calculated."
Xie Fu glanced at her and said with a smile, "That's right. By the way, how about the clothes I bought you before? Did you use them?"
Meeting Xie Fu's teasing gaze, Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but glare at her, "How dare you say that! I've lost all my face!"
Seeing her cheeks blushing slightly, Xie Fu became interested and leaned close to her and whispered, "What's going on? Tell me! Otherwise, I'm going to die of curiosity!"
"Then you'll die of curiosity!"
Thinking of the scene that night, Xiao Muzhen still feels hot on her face. Anyway, she will definitely not tell anyone what happened that night.
"Zhenzhen, your expression has me thinking too much, but you don't satisfy my curiosity and let me imagine too much?"
Xiao Muzhen turned around and glanced at her, his face full of disgust, "Can you stop being so disgusting?"
Hearing the word "obscene", Xie Fu's eyes were filled with disbelief. She pointed at her own face and said, "Me?! Obscene?!"
"How could you say the word 'obscene' to such a beautiful face? How can you say such a cold word with a mouth that's only 37 degrees Celsius?!"
Xiao Muzhen rolled her eyes, "That's right!"
"Wow, I'm so sad. You don't love me anymore. After having Huo Yunting, you've become more and more rude to me!"
Xiao Muzhen: "..."
After enduring for more than ten seconds, she finally couldn't stand it anymore and said, "If you do this again, I will pretend not to know you. It's embarrassing."
Xie Fu wiped away the nonexistent tears and sneered, "Scumbag! You don't cherish what you have!"
"Don't say that, or people will think my sexual orientation is abnormal."
Just as Xie Fu was about to speak, a laughing voice sounded behind them.
"Excuse me, can I sit here?"
