"The jade pendant was given to her by me."
As soon as Fu Xingzhou spoke, the scene fell into an eerie silence.
Bai Weiwei's expression changed drastically, and she looked at Fu Xingzhou in disbelief.
Li Susu was even more surprised, never expecting Fu Xingzhou to say something like that to help her out of that predicament.
Fu Xingzhou ignored their thoughts and took the jade pendant directly from Bai Weiwei's hand, handing it to Li Susu.
"As for my engagement with Bai Weiwei, it has been dissolved. I hope everyone will not misunderstand."
“Our engagement was arranged by our parents. We were too young to think about marriage before, but things are different now.”
With just a few words, Fu Xingzhou made Bai Weiwei's situation extremely awkward.
His personal denial means that Bai Weiwei was lying about what just happened, doesn't it?
There's also the matter of the marriage contract. Without it, Bai Weiwei would have nothing to rely on.
After everyone realized what was happening, their eyes flickered, and soon someone spoke up.
"It seems that what happened just now was a misunderstanding. I didn't expect that President Li and President Fu were a couple. I was really blind. Congratulations!"
"This collaboration can be considered a powerful alliance."
Once someone started offering congratulations, others quickly chimed in.
No one cared about Bai Weiwei's feelings, and they managed to turn the awkward scene into a festive one.
"If President Li and President Fu are getting married soon, they must send us an invitation."
"You two really do look like a perfect match, a match made in heaven."
"It seems that President Fu has met his true love."
As everyone offered their blessings, Li Susu frowned, realizing that they had misunderstood. Just as she was about to explain, Fu Xingzhou pulled her away.
The two held hands tightly, which drew another soft gasp from the crowd.
Bai Weiwei never expected that she would lose both her money and her money. Not only was her jade pendant stolen, but her fiancé also announced the annulment of the engagement in front of everyone.
Her face was extremely pale; she had lost all face, so she simply left.
As Bai Weiwei left, everyone began to whisper among themselves.
Tonight is quite lively; I actually managed to catch such a great show.
While everyone was discussing, Fu Xingzhou pulled Li Susu to the lounge.
"Why are you in such a hurry to pull me away? Those people have misunderstood."
Li Susu's expression became somewhat unnatural, and she quickly pulled her hand back.
Fu Xingzhou raised an eyebrow and moved even closer to Li Susu.
"Bai Weiwei said you like me, is that true?"
Li Susu looked away, feeling somewhat guilty.
"What happened just now was a misunderstanding, don't overthink it."
"I really don't know what happened to this jade pendant, so I'm returning it to you."
Li Susu's answer was irrelevant, which made Fu Xingzhou's expression darken.
He looked at the jade pendant in front of him and repeated his question once again.
"do you like me?"
Li Susu's face flushed bright red instantly. When she looked up, she saw the lip print on Fu Xingzhou's neck.
Her heart pounded; that lipstick mark looked like something she'd accidentally made in the car...
Fu Xingzhou looked into her eyes and chuckled softly.
"What? You've already forgotten how quickly you threw yourself at me in the car?"
"Your brother even asked me what happened, and guess what I answered?"
As Fu Xingzhou spoke, he unconsciously leaned down, getting closer and closer to Li Susu.
"What...what are you doing?"
