If Xingchen wasn't her, where would she be?
Can he find her in this life?
Just now, the socialites were just whispering, but when Ling Mei announced the engagement party of Gong Bingye and Xia Xingchen, the banquet hall immediately became lively.
Even... the unwilling socialites began to express their dissatisfaction loudly, regardless of Gong Nan and Ling Mei's face.
There were inevitably some words that slandered Xia Xingchen.
Among them is Song Yixuan.
Song Yixuan stood there in a daze, almost going crazy with anger, her body shaking constantly.
Ever since she signed the contract with Gong Xia, she has been trying every possible way to get close to Gong Bingye, because she had heard that the prince was a playboy. However, over the years, she had tried every possible means but had never gotten the prince to look at her.
Even if she worked very hard and established herself in the entertainment industry with her own strength, she was still far inferior to Xia Xingchen who appeared out of nowhere.
Why does Xia Xingchen have the right?
Just because she has a good musical background? Wasn't she abandoned by her biological mother, raised in the countryside, and Li Zhenglin's unwelcome stepdaughter?
Just because she is a creative master Shuang Xia? Now, isn't her status in the entertainment industry higher than hers?
Thinking of all this, Song Yixuan's sharp eyes released a strong murderous intent.
Ling Mei was disgusted by their dirty talk, so she said bluntly, "It's not your place to criticize our daughter-in-law. If you have any objections, your cooperation with the Gong family will be cancelled."
The older you get, the wiser you become. Ling Mei used just one sentence to control the talkative socialites.
They knew very well that if they lost the cooperation with the Gong family, they would not be able to explain to their own families.
Things have come to this point, even if they are unwilling, they can only grit their teeth and swallow it.
But Song Yixuan is different...
If they destroy the whole family, they will destroy her, but if they destroy her, they will only destroy her, since she has no family background anyway.
Even if she was going to die, she would drag Xia Xingchen with her.
She won't let her have her way!
If you want to marry the prince, wait for the next life!
After Gong Nan and Ling Mei finished speaking, the sensible socialites began to come forward and chat with Xia Xingchen.
Xia Xingchen didn't recognize any of them, but they all squeezed their heads forward.
She hates this.
Suddenly, an inexplicable sound of many people laughing at her ugly faces arose in her mind, making her ears buzz, and she couldn't help but cover her ears.
"Not good." Seeing this, Gong Bingye hurried over and drove these socialites away.
Xia Xingchen's mind finally felt at peace.
"Girl, are you okay?" Gong Bingye supported her shoulders with both hands and asked worriedly.
Xia Xingchen nodded, "I'm fine."
However, a hint of suspicion flashed across her eyes. What happened to her just now?!
At that moment, Yi Ke came over wearing a tight cheongsam and holding a glass of wine. "Miss Xia, Prince, congratulations on your marriage."
Gong Bingye raised his lips and looked at Yi Ke with eyes that seemed to see through everything.
Xia Xingchen took a glass of wine from the waiter's tray and said lightly, "Thank you."
The two drank the red wine in the glass together.
Yike really couldn't imagine if thousands of female compatriots knew that the president of Sogou was now engaged and would get married and have children in the future, would they be so surprised that their jaws would drop.
After drinking this glass of wine, Jing Han, Jing Naisheng and Zhi Chen also came over.
Seeing Yi Ke here, Jing Naisheng was very surprised, "I didn't expect President Yi to be here too. He must be bored at the company and came to join in the fun. It would be nice to gain some experience."
Yi Ke smiled and said calmly, "Second Miss Jing is really a joker. There are so many scumbags in the world. We are busy all day and exhausted. However, today is the engagement party for Miss Xia and the Crown Prince, so I might as well take a break from my busy schedule."
"Besides, the Gong family is a giant in Lidu. I can't afford to offend them."
As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Xia Xingchen, and seeing that she looked calm, she continued, "Even if I have embarrassed the Gong family, I would not dare to insult Miss Xia."
Yi Ke’s meaning is obvious.
This surprised Jinghan and Zhichen.
Even Jing Naisheng was no exception. She smiled slightly, her tone still calm, "President Yi means that Miss Xia has a higher status than the Crown Prince?"
This time, before Yi Ke could speak, Gong Bingye spoke, "Xingchen is my wife now, so her status is naturally higher than mine. From now on, please be more lenient with me, my wife."
Jing Naisheng didn't say anything, but a fierceness suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Jing Han was so embarrassed by this scene that he said jokingly, "Oh my, that's enough. We are here to congratulate you, not to eat your dog food. Please mind your image in public."
Gong Liusui looked at him with an attitude of "this is my territory and I am the boss."
Jinghan was completely speechless.
Sure enough, being in love can lower one’s IQ.
Suddenly, he began to miss the ruthless prince who had called the wind and rain in Lidu...
Fifteen minutes later, Zhu Ling finally arrived at the banquet.
This made Song Yixuan, who was already in a bad mood, even worse. "Why did you come just now?"
A little later, the party was over!
Zhu Ling explained: "There was a traffic jam on the road."
Song Yixuan didn't want to listen to her nonsense explanation, so she pointed in Xia Xingchen's direction and fanned the flames, "Did you see that? Zhichen and Xia Xingchen are chatting so happily?"
"Even when the Crown Prince is around, he doesn't shy away from it. I don't know how much Zhichen loves Xia Xingchen in his heart. He's not even afraid of the Crown Prince."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Zhu Ling didn't believe Song Yixuan's words at all. "Zhichen is not that kind of person at all."
"Zhu Ling, stop deceiving yourself. The facts are right in front of you. Do you think you still have a chance?" Song Yixuan analyzed every word for her.
However, Zhu Ling didn't buy her tricks. She turned around and asked sharply, "How dare you tell me this? Let me ask you, where were you when the lyrics writing competition was about to end?"
Song Yixuan didn't expect Zhu Ling to bring up this matter at this time. Her eyes darted around, and she said with a guilty conscience, "I went to the bathroom. When I came out, I heard that you were taken away."
"Really?" Zhu Ling couldn't help but smile bitterly. "You know whether you really went to the bathroom or just slipped away."
"No wonder you asked me to come to watch the game, it turns out you wanted to use me as your scapegoat!"
During the few days she was imprisoned, she figured this matter out.
Song Yixuan is really calculating.
Having her evil plot exposed, Song Yixuan concealed her anger, then smiled ingratiatingly and grabbed Zhu Ling's arm. "Look at what you're saying. Am I that kind of person? We're on the same page. How could I possibly harm you?"
