Chapter 165 Thank you, Mr. Zhou
Xia Yutong brushed past Zhou Hengzhi with a flourish, while Hua Xin glared fiercely at her retreating figure.
Hua Xin stood up and watched as Zhou Hengzhi's gaze followed Xia Yutong away. She immediately became unsettled, but put on a polite smile and dealt with the surrounding crowd, appearing magnanimous.
In reality, she secretly pinched Zhou Hengzhi's arm hard, twisting off a small piece of flesh.
Zhou Hengzhi grunted, not daring to make any big movements. Meeting Hua Xin's slightly provocative gaze, he gritted his teeth and said, "Are you crazy?"
"Are you crazy? Aren't you ashamed?"
He's completely infatuated with that woman, and the cameras are rolling. He's already embarrassed himself terribly before, and now he's doing this again.
Hua Xin sneered and left. Zhou Hengzhi stood there, stunned. He noticed several people glancing at him, but he acted as if nothing was wrong and walked into the banquet hall with his wine glass in hand.
Feeling somewhat lost, his first thought was surprisingly to go find Xia Yutong...
He really fell for this woman.
Xia Yutong possesses a pure yet alluring charm, making her the center of attention wherever she sits.
Rose Garden and her handicrafts are incredibly popular online. Sitting there quietly making crafts every day has cultivated her sentiments, and she has gained a gentle and serene charm...
Xia Yutong came at the invitation of the platform and couldn't refuse. After walking around, she sat down and took something to eat.
She was a little hungry, and since she wasn't wearing a tight dress today, she wasn't worried about eating too much and making her tummy bulge.
Li Miao also came along. It was Li Miao's first time attending such a banquet, and she was dressed up in a mauve dress that Shen Yi had designed for her when she was in the studio...
His hair was casually braided into a plait, with a circle of hair flowers in the same color around it. He was looking around at pretty girls and searching for food.
Li Miao has a great hobby: looking at beautiful women, their faces, their figures, and the dresses they wear.
After looking around, Li Miao sat down next to Xia Yutong and said, "Beautiful, every single one of them is beautiful. They have fair skin and look very well-maintained."
Li Miao stretched out her arm and compared it to her skin tone. "Oh my, I even took a bath in milk last night, and I'm still not this fair."
Xia Yutong asked quietly, "How much milk did you use?"
"There must be four or five boxes, right?"
Xia Yutong: ……
Li Miao then asked her, "Shen Yi is also in the city. Will she come to this kind of event?"
Xia Yutong shook her head. Speaking of Shen Yi, it was really a bit strange. Before she came to Nanbian Village, her videos received no traffic and very few people watched them, usually only a few dozen likes. After coming to Nanbian Village, she managed to get some traffic by going to Shen Yi's studio, getting several hundred likes, and sometimes even over a thousand...
However, since leaving Nanbian Village, the number of views on her personal videos has dropped again...
Even with the support of Linwang Entertainment Company, it still failed to make a splash.
Xia Yutong felt that it wasn't the right time yet; it wasn't her time to shine... If Shen Yi had been patient these past few years, she would definitely have shone brightly.
"Yes or no?"
"Probably not, the platform doesn't seem to have invited her."
Lin Wang's company only hired a few top talents; Shen Yi is considered a very minor artist.
Li Miao said, "Shen Yi contacted me before, saying that it's very difficult to make a living in a big entertainment company in the city."
"Offer her some comfort. It's her choice. I hope she succeeds."
Xia Yutong got up and went to the restroom. When she came out, she saw Hua Xin.
Xia Yutong knew about this woman's methods. She suspected that Chen Xinya's situation was also her doing, trying to kill two birds with one stone...
Xia Yutong pretended not to see her, washed her hands, turned around and left, deliberately bumping into her hard, "Sorry... sorry..."
She looked up. "Mrs. Zhou, I'm sorry."
"Twice on the same day."
Hua Xin laughed, "I used to see you on my phone and thought it was a photoshopped picture. I didn't expect you to be so beautiful in person, Miss Xia. Not to mention Hengzhi, I'm starting to like you too."
"Mrs. Zhou, watch out for the cameras."
Xia Yutong pointed behind her, and Hua Xin slightly raised the corners of her lips, "I'm not doing anything, I just want to see what kind of seductive tricks you have to make Hengzhi so smitten."
"Mrs. Zhou, why bother with such trivial matters? I have a husband and children. We could be friends, why should we be enemies?"
"Of course it's because you're shameless..."
"After I got pregnant, I stayed in the countryside and focused on my work. I never contacted your husband on my own initiative. I was doing my duty... But there are always things that come to me on their own. Why do you think that is, Mrs. Zhou?"
Xia Yutong looked up at Hua Xin, her eyes seeming to speak volumes.
Hua Xin laughed, "If you don't want people to know, don't do it in the first place."
"So, Mrs. Zhou, what have I done?"
Xia Yutong didn't hide anything, looking at Hua Xin, "If others don't make things difficult for me, I won't make things difficult for them on my own initiative."
She was targeting Hua Xin. If it were at a banquet, and Hua Xin didn't stick her leg out to embarrass her when she passed by, she wouldn't deliberately step on her foot.
If Hua Xin hadn't chased her to the bathroom and wanted to do something to her, she wouldn't have deliberately bumped into her again.
Hua Xin was exposed, but she persisted, "Are you saying I made things difficult for you?"
"I didn't mean that. It's just that, Mrs. Zhou, women have a sixth sense. If I feel that someone is trying to make things difficult for me, I will strike first."
Hua Xin burst out laughing, covering her mouth as she laughed, before resuming her cold expression. "You have quite the nerve."
"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
Clearly, trying to reason with her had failed.
Hua Hin is strong-willed and won't budge no matter what.
As Xia Yutong walked into the banquet hall, Hua Xin said leisurely, "Just a small internet celebrity. She thinks she's a big star just because she gets some traffic. She puts on airs like a big star, but she's nothing. The slightest breeze can bring her down."
Xia Yutong turned around, and Hua Xin walked towards her step by step, deliberately bumping into her and walking ahead of her. When their eyes met, Xia Yutong was about to fall...
Xia Yutong collapsed before her, crying out, "Ah!"
Hua Xin was about to collapse to the ground when she saw Xia Yutong, and her face instantly changed, "You..."
"Mrs. Zhou, I have no grudge against you, why are you treating me like this?"
She's not afraid to make a big fuss.
But she wanted to show Hua Hin that she wasn't someone to be trifled with.
Hua Hin wanted to use her as leverage to bring about her downfall, but she didn't expect...
"Don't try to scam me, get up now."
Hua Xin's tone was somewhat commanding, and suddenly she became fierce, "Hurry up!"
"it hurts……"
Just then, Zhou Hengzhi jogged over, saw Xia Yutong on the ground, his eyes widened, and he reached out to help her up. "Hua Xin, you've gone too far."
"It's alright, I'm fine. I'm sorry, Mrs. Zhou, I misunderstood. I thought you did it on purpose..."
Hua Xin gritted her teeth. Xia Yutong stood up and shook off Zhou Hengzhi's hand. "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."
