Li Baijun became emotional. He pinched Xia Linan's neck with hatred and kept saying, "It's all your fault, bitch! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have lost my company and my brothers. It's all your fault!!!"
Xia Lin'an was strangled by him until she couldn't breathe. She gradually lost consciousness due to lack of oxygen. A second before she fell into coma, the force on her neck suddenly disappeared and her body fell limply to the ground.
Li Baijun patted Xia Linan's face with his hand and said with a sly smile: "Baby, is it very painful? It's a pity... you can't be relieved so quickly for the time being."
Xia Linan was panting heavily. She slowly regained her strength, raised her eyelids, looked at Li Baijun who had turned into a devil with pity, and sneered, "How pitiful..."
Li Baijun was enraged, and he slapped Xia Linan on the left cheek.
However, it’s now!
The moment Li Baijun moved, Xia Linan pushed him to the ground, then immediately grabbed a handful of soil from the flowerpot next to him and threw it on his face.
Li Baijun was unable to react in time. Sand and mud got into his eyes. He closed his eyes and yelled loudly, "Ahhhhhhhh..."
Xia Linan seized the opportunity, turned around and ran. Although Li Baijun behind her couldn't open his eyes, he took out the knife at his waist and stabbed forward randomly like a madman.
Xia Lin'an dragged her weak body and ran towards the exit of the corridor with all her might. As long as she ran to the exit of the corridor, she would be saved.
Li Baijun was chasing her relentlessly. Xia Lin'an bit her lower lip to prevent her tears from falling. The dawn of the exit was just ahead. The strength of her body burst out and she quickened her pace.
When she was almost at the exit, a look of relief appeared on her face.
However, the next second her heart fell from heaven to hell, and became colder and colder.
The exit... was blocked.
Xia Linan was able to come in unimpeded, but why was the door in front of him locked at this time!
Xia Lin'an would never know that after Tao Hongmei, who had no grudge against her, walked out of the corridor, she asked the hotel staff to seal off the area.
It was Tao Hongmei who blocked Xia Linan's way out!
No wonder no one came in after ten minutes!
And the "culprit" who blocked Xia Linan at the exit was now greeting all the guests with a smile.
Tao Hongmei warmly entertained the dignitaries who came to the engagement party. Suddenly, when she saw a charming figure appear at the door, the smile on her face disappeared immediately.
Ruan Tiantian was always paying attention to the entrance of the banquet hall. When she saw Ruan Mengmeng wearing a fishtail dress, her hot figure looked even more graceful.
The moment Ruan Mengmeng appeared, all the guests were attracted to her. She was more eye-catching than the protagonist of the night.
This was clearly her engagement party, but Ruan Mengmeng was wearing something brighter than her. Those who didn't know her would think she was here to steal the bride's limelight, while those who knew her would think she was here to steal the bride.
Take Ruan Tiantian for example.
She felt jealous and wanted to strangle Ruan Mengmeng to death immediately.
When Tao Hongmei saw Ruan Mengmeng dressed like this, she was so angry that she almost fainted. Was she here to mess things up? !
Her eyes were blazing with fire as she stared at Ruan Mengmeng who walked in.
However, Ruan Mengmeng did not take them seriously.
She glanced at the people in the banquet hall and found a man. He smiled slightly and raised the wine glass in his hand to her. The next second, he drank the wine in the glass.
The way he stared at Ruan Mengmeng was as if he was staring at a piece of prey, determined to get it.
Ruan Mengmeng frowned slightly, shifted her gaze, and saw Ruan Zhengsheng waving at her.
She thought about it, rolled up her skirt, and walked towards Ruan Zhengsheng gracefully.
The male protagonist Chen Mo, who was greeting the guests just now, froze in his expression and his eyes flashed with surprise when he saw Ruan Mengmeng appear.
He had discovered before that Ruan Mengmeng's beauty was unique, but she had always been low-key and never shown off, and she was not as beautiful as she is now.
Chen Mo looked at Ruan Mengmeng, who was becoming less and less like the past. His heart was filled with turmoil and he couldn't let it go. He looked at the woman at the door with complicated eyes.
He did not miss Ruan Mengmeng's subtle reaction when she made eye contact with another man, and he suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Ruan Tiantian held Chen Mo's hand and sensitively noticed his strangeness. Her hatred for Ruan Mengmeng deepened.
Wherever Ruan Mengmeng appears, everyone's attention will be attracted by her.
What a vixen!
Ruan Tiantian cursed secretly in her heart.
Ruan Zhengsheng found that the guests he was talking to would always look towards the door intentionally or unintentionally. He turned around to look and realized that Ruan Mengmeng's arrival had caused a sensation in the banquet hall.
When he saw that almost all the guests were amazed by Ruan Mengmeng's beauty, he smiled proudly, raised his hand and waved to Ruan Mengmeng, motioning her to come over.
Not long after, Ruan Mengmeng walked to Ruan Zhengsheng, smiled and nodded to the other guests, ignoring Chen Mo and Ruan Tiantian.
Ruan Zhengsheng introduced Ruan Mengmeng to his business friends: "This is my second daughter, Mengmeng. Mengmeng, call them uncles and aunts, they are all Dad's friends."
Ruan Mengmeng was rarely obedient. She greeted the elders generously: "Uncles and uncles, hello."
"Old Ruan, it's great to have such a beautiful daughter. No wonder you're always nagging about retiring." One of the people who had a good relationship with Ruan Zhengsheng joked.
"Mengmeng has a boyfriend now? Are you interested? Our two families can become closer." The other elder was speaking to Ruan Mengmeng openly, but secretly to Ruan Zhengsheng.
Ruan Zhengsheng was unhappy when he heard this. He was the first to speak: "My children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. I don't want to interfere too much."
Ruan Mengmeng smiled lightly, "Uncle is joking, it's Mengmeng who is not worthy of you."
“Hahahaha…” The elder was flattered and he burst into laughter.
Ruan Zhengsheng was satisfied to see that his daughter was able to handle this situation with ease, and a weight of relief fell from his heart.
Ever since Ruan Mengmeng came here, Ruan Tiantian and Chen Mo have been completely ignored.
Ruan Tiantian was angry but couldn't vent it, but Tao Hongmei couldn't stand it anymore. She walked up and secretly pinched Ruan Mengmeng's waist, and spoke to the guests with a smile on her face, but she was reminding Ruan Mengmeng: "Today is Tiantian's big day. Mengmeng, as her sister, how can you steal her limelight?"
The expressions on Ruan Zhengsheng and Chen Mo's faces froze.
Ruan Mengmeng turned to the elders and smiled apologetically, "Uncles, I'm sorry, I couldn't control myself at the moment and talked too much."
