Song Shan came back after a while. She pretended to look pitiful and sat next to Xi Jiuchen, just like she did in the bathroom. Under the candlelight, she looked like humans and animals are harmless, but they are weak and need protection and care.
.
Tang Zhixia saw this and felt like vomiting. She even lost her appetite and picked up the cup to drink water.
"Ms. Tang, would you like a piece of the truffled veal steak that was just served?" Huang Ming brought her a glass.
Tang Zhixia smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you."
After dinner, there was a half-hour banquet theme. Tang Zhixia picked up a glass of red wine. She was probably the only one without a companion tonight. She came to the balcony and looked at the luxurious night scene outside like a golden pavement. In this
In a money-based society, people live in a state of dissatisfaction and lose their direction.
"Why are you here?" A deep male voice sounded from behind Leng Buding.
Tang Zhixia knew who it was without turning around. She laughed lazily and said, "What? Do I need to report to you when I attend such an occasion?"
"What does it have to do with you being Zhan Qingye?"
Tang Zhixia couldn't help turning around in shock, looking at the sexy and charming man who was obsessed with red wine, she frowned, "Do you know Zhan Qingye?"
"We know each other." Xi Jiuchen replied calmly.
Tang Zhixia was not surprised. Zhan Qingye must be the son of a wealthy family to be invited to such a banquet, and it was not surprising that he was acquainted with children from upper-class wealthy families.
"You haven't answered my question yet, what is your relationship with Zhan Qingye?" The man behind him asked persistently.
Tang Zhixia took a sip of red wine and said, "Why should I tell you?"
After saying that, she turned around and ignored him and left. The fact that he was Song Shan's boyfriend was enough to disgust her.
Under the light of the balcony, the man's dark eyes were slightly narrowed, and his thick eyelashes left a shadow as dense as a feather fan, making his handsome face a bit ugly.
Song Shan was chatting with a celebrity in the crowd. She looked at Tang Zhixia coming out of the balcony. Of course she also knew that Xi Jiuchen was also on the balcony, which made her feel crazy jealous.
Is Tang Zhixia taking the opportunity to seduce Xi Jiuchen?
Song Shan saw Xi Jiuchen walking from the balcony out of the corner of her eye. A flash of scheming flashed in her eyes, and she walked towards Tang Zhixia with the cup in hand.
Tang Zhixia was just waiting for several men to come forward to propose a toast, when he turned around and bumped into Song Shan.
"Zhixia, I'd like to toast you. It was my fault for causing trouble in the company last time." Song Shan apologized again.
Tang Zhixia sneered in her heart. Whether Song Shan was sincere or fake, she could tell at a glance.
Tang Zhixia was too lazy to pay attention to her and was about to leave when Song Shan suddenly grabbed her hand holding the red wine. Before she could react, she was controlled by a force and the red wine in her hand instantly poured onto Song Shan's evening dress.
"Ah..." Song Shan exclaimed.
Xi Jiuchen came over quickly, and Song Shan took two perfect steps back and entered his arms, "Zhixia, how could you do this to me?"
Song Shan complained plaintively that her evening dress was completely ruined with red wine stains all over it.
Tang Zhixia held the wine glass and stayed there for a few seconds. Looking at Song Shan's perfect performance in White Lotus, she really wanted to award her an Academy Award for Best Actress.
"Zhixia, I know it's my fault to complain to you, but you can't do this to me..." There were tears of grievance in Song Shan's eyes, making her look particularly pitiful.
The people attending the banquet tonight were all members of the city's famous families. Everyone looked at Song Shan sympathetically and cast reproachful eyes on Tang Zhixia, as if they deeply despised her behavior of throwing red wine.
"Ms. Tang, apologize."
The speaker was Xi Jiuchen, his handsome face was frozen, his expression was cold, and he was obviously very angry.
Tang Zhixia couldn't help but glare at him. Did this man understand the situation? It was Song Shan who grabbed her hand and deliberately let the wine in her hand spill on her, but he actually asked her to apologize?
"Why should I apologize?" Tang Zhixia raised his chin slightly, his clear eyes looking very stubborn.
"Forget it, Jiuchen, I'm fine... I'll just go change my clothes." Song Shan turned her head, suppressing her aggrieved expression, and said magnanimously, "I forgive her."
Tang Zhixia clenched her fists, "I don't need your forgiveness."
"Tang Zhixia, I want you to apologize." Xi Jiuchen's dark eyes suddenly looked like Bingyuan, as calm as him, and the veins on his forehead rioted with anger.
Tang Zhixia's beautiful eyes shot towards Xi Jiuchen and she sneered, "Okay, I can apologize, but she must kneel down and listen."
A sneer of a successful plot flashed across Song Shan's eyes. She and Tang Zhixia knew her character well from elementary school to high school.
She is a person who never bows her head.
She just wanted to anger Tang Zhixia in front of Xi Jiuchen and make her stubborn and unreasonable.
"You..." Xi Jiuchen's eyes flashed with anger, and a glacier-like gaze shot over him instantly.
"Jiu Chen, I really don't blame her. I did it accidentally. I'm fine... don't blame Zhi Xia anymore." Song Shan bit her red lips, grabbed his sleeves, and pretended to swallow all the grievances she had suffered.
expression.
Tang Zhixia really wanted to hit someone and beat Song Shan violently.
"Ms. Song, we have prepared a clean evening gown for you. Please come with me." The female manager came over gently.
Song Shan nodded and followed her.
Tang Zhixia felt the pointing eyes from all around, she bit her lip and decided to endure it, because she hadn't seen the jewelry she wanted to see yet, and she didn't plan to leave.
"Come with me." The next second, Tang Zhixia's arm was grabbed by the man domineeringly, and he pulled her to a nearby box.
"Xi Jiuchen, let me go." Tang Zhixia wanted to break away, but the man was too strong and she couldn't break away.
As soon as she entered the box, the man let her go. Tang Zhixia crossed her arms and stared at this domineering and arrogant man, "What are you going to do?"
"Do you know what kind of people are here tonight? You only need an apology to solve the problem, but you have to let everyone see your joke?" Xi Jiuchen's face was cold, and his tone was full of blame.
Tang Zhixia looked at him angrily, frowning and said, "What can you do if I don't apologize?" Song Shan is his girlfriend. No matter how she explains, whether Song Shan is right or wrong, he will always favor her.
.
She explained briefly.
"Tang Zhixia, even if your mother died early, haven't you learned the basics of human nature? You are so arrogant and unreasonable." Xi Jiuchen felt inexplicably annoyed for some unknown reason.
Couldn't this woman be more content and obedient? Stop causing trouble?
Tang Zhixia looked at this man who was worried about him disapprovingly, "What kind of person am I, and what does it have to do with you, Xi Jiuchen? I won't marry you. Even if I break the truth, it has nothing to do with you."
After Tang Zhixia finished speaking, she was about to go out, but she didn't expect her arms to be held again. The next second, her arms were pressed against the wall by a man, and a handsome face appeared in front of her gloomily, only a palm away.
