Shi Xi finished eating the pudding and thought about leaving this boring banquet.
Just as she was about to leave, Xie Yunzhou blocked her way. "Why didn't you wait for me?"
Shi Xi raised her eyes and said in a light tone, "I don't want to disturb someone's flirting with their childhood sweetheart."
"She and I are just friends," Xie Yunzhou confessed. "She lives near my grandmother's house, so..."
"Stop, stop, I don't want to hear any childhood sweetheart stories." Shi Xi looked away, then suddenly laughed, raising her chin slightly. "Look at your childhood sweetheart, she's been entangled with Xie Er."
Xie Er appeared out of nowhere and chatted happily with Chu Hua.
"Do they know each other too?" Shi Xi asked.
"I don't know." Xie Yunzhou frowned slightly and said to Shi Xi, "I'll go take a look."
Shi Xi pouted.
Are you so concerned about Chu Hua?
What could Xie Er possibly do to Chu Hua in front of everyone?
Besides, Chu Hua herself was chatting and laughing with them!
Shi Xi stared at Xie Yunzhou's back, and when she saw that he had actually gone up, she turned around and left.
What a lousy banquet!

After being abandoned by Xie Yunzhou, Chu Hua bit her lip, unsure of what to do.
Xie Yunzhou wasn't like this to her before.
The two used to be able to talk and have meals together.
"Miss, you're so beautiful, why are you frowning?" Xie Er appeared, handed Chu Hua a glass of champagne, and smiled very gentlemanly and considerately.
Xie Er was quite handsome, and when he was being gentle and gentlemanly, he was very much like a real person.
"I was just thinking about something." Chu Hua, slightly embarrassed by the handsome guy (Xie Er)'s advances, accepted the champagne from his hand. "Thank you."
"Champagne and a beautiful woman." Xie Er introduced himself with a smile: "My name is Xie Dong."
“I know you’re the president of Hongxin.” Chu Hua, who was at the banquet, naturally knew who the host was. “My name is Chu Hua, and I’m a fabric designer.”
The two were chatting happily when Xie Yunzhou suddenly appeared, blocking their way.
"Yunzhou?" Chu Hua exclaimed in surprise when she saw Xie Yunzhou return. "You, you're back?"
"I need to talk to this gentleman about something," Xie Yunzhou said to Chu Hua. "You can go and look around somewhere else first."
Chu Hua, holding the champagne glass, felt her heart flutter. "Okay."
Seeing that Chu Hua had walked away, Xie Yunzhou turned to Xie Er and said coldly, "What do you want to do?"
Xie Er said nonchalantly, "A beautiful lady is a gentleman's ideal. I'm seriously pursuing a woman, what's it to you?"
"Focus on running your company well," Xie Yunzhou warned. "This isn't Yanjing. If you do anything wrong, no one can protect you!"
Xie Er's face turned ashen.
...
Shi Xi returned to the car and looked at her phone screen.
Haven't you noticed she left yet?
Did he go out to eat with Chu Hua?
What green plum?
It's definitely different!
As Shi Xi was thinking, her phone suddenly rang.
It was Xie Yunzhou calling.
Shi Xi's eyes curved into crescents as she waited for the phone to ring for a while before answering it.
"Where are you?" Xie Yunzhou searched the banquet but couldn't find Shi Xi.
"Let's go to Qingshuiju for dinner." Shi Xi leaned back in her chair and said lazily, "The red carpet is over, there's nothing else to do."
"I'll go with you," Xie Yunzhou said, going along with the girl's wishes.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Xi's discomfort dissipated.
Seeing Shi Xi like this, Zhu Lin was a little worried. "Xi Xi, do you... do you want some water?"
"I'm not thirsty," Shi Xi asked. "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's just that his smile is a little scary." Zhu Lin's lips twitched slightly, thinking to herself that people in love can be a bit terrifying.
