She finally encountered the Shura Field that she had tried every means to avoid. Cheng Yuesheng sighed helplessly.
Although there were plants and decorations on the terrace, the place where they were sitting was not hidden and they could be seen by just looking inside.
Cheng Yuesheng was quite distressed. She poked the small cake on the plate with her fork in annoyance.
Wei Lanxin was wearing her hotel waitress uniform. A friend had asked her to come over today to work part-time, but she hadn't expected to see Meng Shuwei. And he was actually with Cheng Siyue. The two looked incredibly close, and from a distance, they looked like a perfect match. Wherever they went, they were praised by others, as if they were made for each other.
She knew this was a very important occasion, and she didn't want to stir up any trouble. Meng Shuwei had explained to her that Siyue was just an old classmate, but she couldn't bear to watch such a scene. She endured it for a long time, finally waiting until they left the banquet hall and followed them to the rooftop terrace restaurant and bar.
"Why are you with her?" Wei Lanxin accused, looking at Meng Shuwei and Cheng Siyue in disbelief.
"Lanxin, you misunderstood. Siyue and I just happened to meet." Meng Shuwei explained. He looked at Wei Lanxin with a headache. Every time Wei Lanxin saw Cheng Siyue, her reaction would be particularly big. He didn't want her to make a fuss in an occasion like today.
Wei Lanxin just felt that he was perfunctory. She looked at them with a heartbroken face and said, "If you met by chance, then why have you been together since the party started? She was even holding your hand!"
"Miss Wei, I'm just temporarily serving as Shu Wei's female companion at this dinner." Cheng Siyue also came out to explain: "My arm around his is just a courtesy, there is no special meaning."
Wei Lanxin looked at Cheng Siyue, who was dressed like a big star, and Meng Shuwei, who was wearing a well-fitting suit. Then she looked at her own work clothes. She felt like a clown who was trying to attract attention. She was standing in front of an elegant couple without knowing her own limitations.
"Ms. Cheng, please don't interrupt without permission." Wei Lanxin glared at her and said bluntly, "I know exactly what you're thinking. I'm asking about Shu Wei, not you."
"Lan Xin, you are so rude. Si Yue is here to help me today."
It was indeed a coincidence that Meng Shuwei ran into Cheng Siyue today. He had no idea she would be attending the dinner when he came to the party, because the Cheng family and the Zhai family were completely unrelated. When he ran into Cheng Siyue when he entered the hotel, she told him that she had been invited by Zhai Yuwei because they had met at the holiday villa and had a good relationship.
Meng Shuwei himself came to the birthday party because of Zhai Xuan's relationship. After all, his family was a well-known family in Jiangzhou before it went bankrupt, and their family had many intersections with the Zhai family. When he returned to Jiangzhou, Zhai Xuan of the Zhai family called him over.
Although he is now a rising star in Jiangzhou's business world, and his former Meng family has had many connections with families in Jiangzhou, his family has been away from Jiangzhou for a few years, and Jiangzhou's business world has also undergone many changes. For example, many people he has never seen came to the Zhai family's birthday party.
But Cheng Siyue is different. She is good at socializing and has dealt with people who have little contact with the Cheng family. Therefore, Meng Shuwei temporarily invited her to be his female companion at the dinner and asked her to help him reintegrate into this environment.
In fact, when receiving the invitation to this birthday party, Meng Shuwei once asked Wei Lanxin's opinion whether she wanted to be his female companion to attend the party, but Wei Lanxin refused. She said that she had never attended such a party and did not dare to go.
But Meng Shuwei never dreamed that Wei Lanxin, who refused to attend his birthday party, would work part-time as a waiter in the hotel where the birthday party was held.
"What did she do for you?" Wei Lanxin complained tearfully, "You two were so affectionate behind my back, walking hand in hand everywhere. You and I are obviously boyfriend and girlfriend, but I can't even be so intimate with you in front of others at the company. Why can Cheng Siyue do this to you?"
Seeing her tears welling up, Meng Shuwei instinctively wanted to comfort her. However, it wasn't Cheng Siyue's fault in the first place. She had even helped him. As their argument drew more and more people to watch, he couldn't hurt the person who had helped him. Besides, it was Wei Lanxin who had originally proposed a secret relationship, saying she didn't want her colleagues to gossip about her.
"Lan Xin, why are we pretending that nothing happened in the company? Isn't it your request?" The pity in Meng Shuwei's eyes faded and his tone became calm.
"Ms. Wei, I think you misunderstood the relationship between Shuwei and me. We are just old classmates. We walked hand in hand to reminisce about the past and introduce some of my connections to Shuwei." Cheng Siyue apologized sincerely: "I'm sorry for misunderstanding you. Maybe I didn't do my job well enough."
Meng Shuwei felt that it was because of him that Wei Lanxin misunderstood her. He said, "Siyue, this has nothing to do with you. You helped me today, and I am very grateful to you."
Wei Lanxin felt that Meng Shuwei's words were quite harsh. She accused him, "You two are still being affectionate in front of me. Meng Shuwei, you are still speaking for her. Do you have the same idea as her?"
"Lan Xin, what are you talking about? Don't slander Siyue, don't slander me!" Meng Shuwei was also angry at this time. "I asked you to come to the birthday party with me before, but you didn't want to come. I invited Siyue to be my female companion on the spur of the moment, and you are here to accuse both of us."
Listening to their words, the crowd began to form their own opinions. In their eyes, Meng Shuwei and Cheng Siyue were both handsome and beautiful, and Wei Lanxin was nothing compared to them. Cheng Siyue spoke softly and rationally, and Meng Shuwei was polite to her. In contrast, it seemed that Wei Lanxin was being unreasonable.
