Because the person beating Wu Duo up below was none other than Ye Ningwan, whom they hadn't seen in a long time.
Ye Ruoxin gripped the wine glass tightly, the veins on the back of her hand bulging, her slender fingers pale from blood loss.
It's her!
Wang Zhixuan was originally watching Ye Ningwan below with great interest, but when he heard Ye Ruoxin utter two words, he turned to look at Ye Ruoxin and said with a smile.
"What, you know each other?"
Ye Ruoxin bit her lip, not wanting to speak for a moment.
But as soon as Wang Zhixuan finished speaking, his lackeys immediately put on a smug smile and said...
"Oh right, that woman looks like Miss Ye's adopted daughter!"
Wang Zhixuan said "Oh," looked at Ye Ruoxin, and said with a smile.
"Oh, we're so familiar with each other! What's your adopted daughter's name? Why don't you invite her up to play together?"
The lackey immediately grinned and said...
"Her name is Ye Ningwan. This woman has become even more beautiful after running away from home for several years. Indeed, the Ye family produces beauties!"
Ye Ruoxin's expression wasn't good, but she still managed to force a smile in front of Wang Zhixuan.
"Yes, she is our adopted daughter. But she's already married, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
Wang Zhixuan stared at Ye Ruoxin's face, then suddenly chuckled and beckoned to his assistant.
The assistant, who had always sat on a stool in the corner and was hardly noticeable, was always there whenever Wang Zhixuan called for him.
The man in his thirties looked very refined and reserved, wearing glasses, and spoke gently to Wang Zhixuan.
"Young Master Wang, what are your orders?"
Wang Zhixuan tapped the glass.
"Go and invite Miss Ye upstairs."
The assistant turned and left the private room.
"yes."
After his assistant left, Wang Zhixuan chuckled, downed the red wine in his glass in one gulp, and said irritably.
"So what if she's married? As long as I like her, what woman won't I have?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Ruoxin couldn't help but furrow her brows and grind her back teeth.
Just a few minutes ago, Wang Zhixuan was flirting with me like a dog, but now he's turned his attention to Ye Ningwan. What does this mean?!
Ye Ruoxin seemed to hear the constant mocking laughter of those around her.
Those people were secretly watching him, secretly treating him as a joke.
Ye Ruoxin naturally had no feelings for Wang Zhixuan; she simply directed all her anger and resentment at Ye Ningwan. It was all Ye Ningwan's fault!
It's all because of her. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be in this embarrassing situation now. It's all because of Ye Ningwan that I've ended up like this!
Ye Ruoxin's anger was like a raging fire, wishing she could burn Ye Ningwan's soul to ashes.
Ye Ruoxin turned away, unwilling to look at Ye Ningwan below any longer. She quickly walked back to the sofa, plopped down, grabbed the red wine on the coffee table, and poured herself a full glass.
Ye Ruoxin's wrist was grabbed.
"Drink less, you'll get drunk easily if you keep drinking like this."
Ye Ruoxin turned her head and glanced unhappily at the woman sitting next to her, her brows furrowed tightly, and said in an annoyed tone.
"Let me go! What does it matter to you whether I'm drunk or not?!"
The woman in front of me is the one who just tried to persuade Ye Ruoxin.
Ye Ruoxin remembered that this woman did not seem to be a native of Jiangcheng. She couldn't say for sure who the woman was, but the fact that she was here meant that she was also involved in high society circles.
Ye Ruoxin vaguely remembered the other person's name; it seemed to be Wen Yawen.
Despite Ye Ruoxin's harsh remark, Wen Yawen maintained a gentle smile, reached out her other hand, took the wine glass from Ye Ruoxin's hand, and placed it on the coffee table.
She spoke calmly to Ye Ruoxin.
"Do you think getting yourself drunk will solve your current problems? Others will only see you as pathetic and laugh at you even more. When those rumors start spreading, won't you have any face left?"
Ye Ruoxin's face grew even uglier, and she remained silent for a long time.
After a long while, he finally broke free from Wen Ya-wen's grip on his wrist and calmly spoke to her.
"Then what do you think I should do?"
A cool glint flashed in Wen Yawen's eyes as she spoke to Ye Ruoxin, word by word.
"Can you contact Pei Fengzhi? Isn't Ye Ningwan already married? Since she's been having affairs outside, why don't you bring her husband here and let him know what kind of person Ye Ningwan really is!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Ruoxin's eyes lit up, and she looked at Wen Yawen with sparkling eyes, gripping Wen Yawen's hand tightly.
"You've made a good point about the future! I'll send a message to Pei Fengzhi right now!"
Wen Ya-wen then picked up the full glass of red wine, poured half of it into her own glass, handed it to Ye Ruo-xin, and smiled as she clinked glasses with her.
"Everyone in this world you hate should disappear!"
The two occupied a corner of the sofa, neither of them noticing what was happening there.
The door to the private room was pushed open.
The assistant invited Ye Ningwan in, and everyone in the private room craned their necks to look towards the door.
When Ye Ningwan walked in, all the men present couldn't help but stare at her face, standing there dumbfounded.
"Oh ho!"
Someone in the crowd called out softly.
"I used to think Miss Ye was already very beautiful, but now I realize what a world of difference she is!"
