Shi Xi couldn't understand the difference between them.
But Hua Xuanhe said that she had no choice but to wait there.
After Xie Yunzhou came in, the noise at the party subsided a bit.
The crowd glanced at Xie Yunzhou from time to time, whispering among themselves.
But when Xie Yunzhou's gaze swept over them, their eyes became evasive, and they dared not meet his eyes.
Xie Yunzhou scanned the entire room, his gaze finally settling on Shi Xi.
He walked straight toward Shi Xi.
"Sorry, something came up and I'm a little late." Xie Yunzhou only looked at Shi Xi.
Shi Xi's eyes curved into a smile. "It's okay, I just arrived recently."
Hua Xuanhe, who was ignored, coughed and said, "Can you see me?"
Xie Yunzhou then turned his gaze to Hua Xuanhe, saying, "If President Hua has something to attend to, I'll take Xixi elsewhere first."
Hua Xuanhe: ?
It would have been better if I had never seen him.
"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Hua Xuanhe raised his chin slightly. "I heard that things haven't been very peaceful at the Xie family lately."
Shi Xi helped him finish the sentence: "If you need any help, just let him know, and he'll definitely help you."
Hua Xuanhe: ?
Is this the younger sister who got married?
Oh no, she's not married yet!
Xie Yunzhou replied casually, "No need."
Hua Xuanhe thought he was putting on a brave face, and frowned slightly. "There's no need for formalities between us."
"No need to be polite, I know what I'm doing." Xie Yunzhou didn't want to say more, and took the girl's hand. "Xixi and I have something to talk about, please excuse me."
Hua Xuanhe: ...
Shi Xi followed him to a corner of the banquet and asked, "What's wrong? Did you miss me? Didn't I give you a small cake? Was it good?"
"I missed you, it's delicious." Xie Yunzhou refrained from hugging her directly, but gently stroked the girl's hand: "Why didn't you tell me you were coming back? I could have come to pick you up."
Shi Xi explained, "The production crew was in a rush, so I came straight back. I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to be so busy and have to travel back and forth for me."
"Work is not as important as you," Xie Yunzhou said restrainedly. "I miss you so much."
"I haven't been gone for long." Shi Xi was about to calculate the number of days until she returned when Xie Yunzhou stopped her.
Xie Yunzhou looked intently into the girl's eyes. "I start missing you as soon as you leave for a minute."
Although they're cheesy pickup lines, they're still quite appealing.
Shi Xi softened her voice, "From now on, I will often stay by your side."
"good."
Shi Xi played with his fingers and asked, "You really won't accept my brother's help?"
Xie Yunzhou looked down at her.
“He’s not an outsider.” Shi Xi wasn’t afraid of him at all. “Just tell him if you need anything.”
So many people want their maternal family's support!
Xie Yunzhou, on the other hand, directly refused.
“Yan Linlang is targeting me. Seeking Hua Xuan’s help now will only drag him down with me,” Xie Yunzhou said softly.
Shi Xi thought about it and agreed.
Xie Yunzhou noticed her worry and reassured her, "Don't worry, I'm confident I can weather this storm. This time will be a good opportunity to see the problems left over from the Xie family. After this, I will be able to firmly control the Xie family."
Shi Xi was skeptical. "Really?"
Xie Yunzhou nodded. "When did I ever boast?"
Considering Xie Yunzhou's abilities, he really doesn't need to force himself to do this.
At worst, she can support him.
"Then I won't ask any more questions." Shi Xi's eyes curved into a smile. "But if you need any help, be sure to tell me! Understand?"
"good."
