43 Gold Digger

Zhou Bingbing was in a totally bad mood when she failed to follow Si Weimin. She stomped her feet as she scanned the surrounding outside. She hated how cold and indifferent Si Weimin was to her.

'Si Weimin! I will not stop until I make you mine!'

After Si Weimin turned to leave, she immediately followed him and held his arm. She blushed pretending to accidentally bump her bosom on his arm. She made sure that it's rubbing on them. The warmth of his skin could almost be felt against her dress.

She smiled triumphantly. She held his arm tighter and walked alongside him.

'You are mine, Si Weimin.'

She was determined not to let him go until she would meet her father. She needed him to talk to Si Weimin. She knew that her father could sway him to marry her. She moved her head sideways, looking for Zhou Jiayin.

She pouted her red lips when she couldn't see her father. "Weimin-ge, can we look around and find dad?"

Si Weimin didn't answer as he gave her a disgusting look. She only smiled as she felt Si Weimin trying to remove her hands but she didn't let go. She held on to him tightly as she smiled her sweetest to the people in the room. She nodded her head as a sign of recognition as she tilted her head to gaze at Si Weimin.

"Weimin-ge, please smile even just a little." She pouted coyly, trying hard to look innocent and sweet.

"I don't have time for this, Ms. Zhou." Si Weimin answered irritatedly as he tried to take her hand off of his arm.

"Weimin-ge, let us look at father first, please."

Even though she didn't hear him replied, his mere presence on her side, elated her spirit. She was pleased with the way people looked at her. She could sense jealousy and envy sprouting at the deepest part of their beings. She could tell how they wanted to be on her shoes.

She felt proud when people began to throw them admiring gazes. She was ecstatic to hear the whispering of the fellow artists she knew.

"Look! Is that Si Weimin with Zhou Bingbing?"

"Oh! They look good together."

"So, the news about Xu Jia Li and Si Weimin isn't true?"

"Well, who knows? It could be true, no one knows. Look how handsome, CEO Si is."

"They look good together. Zhou Bingbing is a very popular actress and she comes from a respectable family. She is perfect for Si Weimin." The actress wearing a dark blue cocktail dress whispered while taking a glimpse at Si Weimin and Zhou Bingbing.

"You're right. Anyway, didn't you know that Xu Jia Li is here too? I've seen her talking to Paul Mcmillan earlier."

"Aiyoo, this will be an interesting night. I wanna know if the rumour about CEO Si and Xu Jia Li is true."

"Wait, you girls. Be quiet, you're all so nosy. Someone might hear you and tell you to Si Weimin."

The group scurried away from the approaching Si Weimin and Zhou Bingbing.

The extreme dislike she had for Xu Jia Li was reignited. She remembered the rumours. She told herself that she needed to move fast before that bitch could get Si Weimin.

She walked in a sexy and sultry manner that gained the admiration of the men in the room. She enjoyed being the center of attention.

"Bingbing, it was nice seeing you here!" A handsome man called Zhou Bingbing. He was Han Zinian, the chairman of Han Limited Incorporated. He was tall and his aura could be compared to that of Si Weimin. He was Zhou Bingbing's childhood friend.

"Zinian! What a suprise!" she beamed as she absentmindedly let go of Si Weimin's arm. She immediately approached Han Zinian and hugged him a little.

"I just came back. I've been to Europe to expand the company. I didn't imagine seeing you here."

"Yes, I came with dad. Well, let me introduce you to Si Weimin –" Zhou Bingbing didn't finish what she was about to say when she turned her head and realized that Si Weimin was already gone.

Without saying anything more to Han Zinian, she turned her back and walked outside to find Si Weimin.

'I hate how you make me a fool! You will pay!'

She was fuming with anger when she couldn't find him. With a defeated look, she entered the venue again and went directly to the ladies room. She fixed her hair as she ran her fingers through it. She dabbed powder and reapply her lip gloss.

When she was happy and satisfied with her look, she walked back inside and began to look for Zhou Jiayin. Before she could find him, a reporter from Beijing News approached her.

"Ms. Zhou! Can I have a short interview?"

"Oh, of course. About what?" She smiled demurely and looked straight at the camera without blinking her eyes.

"I've seen you with Si Weimin of the Si International Corporation, are you two dating?"

Zhou Bingbing slightly bowed her head and pretended to be shy of the question. She gave the reporter a meaningful look as she curved her lips into an innocent smile. She put her hands on both sides of her cheeks, trying to give off the image of modesty and decorum.

The reporter somehow understood the indirect hint and began asking more questions,

"Ms. Zhou, what is your stand about the issue faced by CEO Si?"

"Well, I don't really believe in rumours. They are called rumours because they aren't true."

"Ms. Xu Jia Li is also here, did you see each other yet?"

"Oh, Ms. Xu. We haven't seen each other yet."

"Do you believe that Ms. Xu tried to seduce CEO Si?"

The question was bluntly asked which made Zhou Bingbing excited. She masked her joy and showed how sad she was by letting her eyes shined with tears.

"I don't believe at it all. Ms. Xu is old enough to do such an immoral thing."

The reporter nodded his head and thanked Zhou Bingbing for granting him a short interview.

Zhou Bingbing sneered inside, 'That Xu Jia Li bitch!'

She walked around nodding and greeting people on her way when she spotted Zhou Jiayin being held by a woman wearing black. She saw the look given by her father to the woman.

'Who is that bitch flirting with my father?'

She walked fast and there she noticed the person who made her mad all throughout the day. She stopped on her track and the hate came flooding her.

'Xu Jia Li bitch! After seducing Weimin-ge, now you are trying to seduce my dad, too. You are a slut! What a gold digger!'
