"It's different." Gu Shen carried a cup of wine, and lightly swayed it.
Mo Xie retracted his gaze, his face full of questions: "Then, you think she is one of them?" He had always thought that Gu Shen wouldn't fall for women, but now that he did, he wondered if Gu Shen was serious.
Gu Shen took a sip of the wine and nodded without hesitation.
He was serious towards Ye Chaxu.
Before, he had been confused, but now that he saw her happy, he was happy. Now that he saw her in pain, he was in pain. She was tugging at his nerves, and his love for her grew deeper and deeper.
She didn't like him, but he wanted her to fall in love with him. He wanted to capture her heart and keep her by his side.
Mo Xie was stunned. Taking a deep breath, he suppressed his shock and regained his composure, saying, "I really want to see just what's good about her that is worthy of you being so serious." His curiosity towards Ye Chaxu had grown.
"I won't let you disturb her." Gu Shen warned, his expression becoming serious.
Mo Xie was a man who had roamed the flowers for a long time. As long as it was a man who was interested in women, he would chase after them.
Mo Xie heard and raised his eyebrows into a smile. He explained: "Don't worry, I'm just curious as to where she has the advantage to attract you and not chase after her. Don't think that I'm bad, after all, I understand the principle of not cheating friends and wives." Initially, he had that thought, but after hearing what Gu Shen said, he dispelled it. No matter what, he could not eat in front of a tiger's mouth.
But he had only said it casually, and Gu Shen started to get nervous. It could be seen that Gu Shen truly cared about Ye Chaxu.
Gu Shen did not reply, but sank into deep thought, because Mo Xie's words "one's friends and wives are not to be trifled with" made a thought appear in his mind.
Wife is a wife, right?
If he could make Ye Chaxu his wife, she wouldn't leave him. After a while, they would have feelings for each other.
"Alright, let's not talk about women. Let's get down to business." Mo Xie changed the topic, his expression becoming serious.
Gu Shen nodded and began talking about work with Mo Xie.
On the other side, Ye Chaxu was sitting on the sofa. She was fidgety and her whole body felt uncomfortable, after all, she had never participated in such a banquet before and she felt that it was out of place with everything here.
Xu Jiawen who was inside the banquet saw Ye Chaxu, his pupils shrunk, a look of anger flashed past his eyes.
She held a glass of red wine and walked towards Ye Chaxu, accurately pouring the red wine on Ye Chaxu's clothes.
Ye Chaxu's face was filled with fear, she immediately stood up and pulled a tissue off the table to wipe the red wine on her clothes, but the red wine had already seeped into her white dress and stained it all over, causing it to be unable to be wiped clean.
She looked at Xu Jiawen with a helpless expression.
The surrounding people had already noticed this scene and turned their gaze to Ye Chaxu and Xu Jiawen.
"I don't know what's going on. I accidentally knocked over a glass of wine when I was walking just now. Who knew that you would sit here? " Xu Jiawen explained as he innocently shrugged his shoulders, as if he really had nothing to do with her.
Ye Chaxu's eyes darkened. She knew that Xu Jiawen was doing this on purpose, but she couldn't accuse Xu Jiawen in front of so many people. He then walked around Xu Jiawen and headed to the washroom.
Seeing that, Xu Jiawen followed Ye Chaxu.
Ye Chaxu followed the sign and went to the bathroom, lifting up her skirt and turning on the tap to wash the red wine imprint.
"I didn't expect you to be so tolerant." Xu Jiawen leaned on the door and stared at Ye Chaxu with a gloomy expression.
Hearing that, Ye Chaxu looked at Xu Jiawen in the mirror. He wanted to say something, but thinking that it was not necessary to cause trouble, he frowned, lowered his head and continued cleaning the red wine imprint, ignoring Xu Jiawen.
Xu Jiawen was so angry that he went forward to pull Ye Chaxu's arm, and strongly pushed him away.
Ye Chaxu was pushed away, and smashed into the wall behind him, causing his back to spasm from the impact.
She raised her head, and coldly stared at Xu Jiawen: "Miss Xu, after you have finished venting your anger, please stay away from me, because I disdain this kind of trick." She knew that the reason why Xu Jiawen bullied her was because of Gu Shen. She could understand that, after all, she had snatched Gu Shen away.
"Ha ha!" Xu Jiawen sneered, as his sharp eyes pointed straight at Ye Chaxu: "Ye Chaxu, you better listen to me and stay away from Gu Shen, or I'll make you lose your reputation and regret your actions." When she thought of how Gu Shen had brought Ye Chaxu to attend the banquet today, she became so angry that she wanted to kill someone.
When Ye Chaxu heard Xu Jiawen's threat, she felt uncomfortable, and her expression turned cold: "I also want to stay a bit further away, but he wants to forcefully keep me by his side, what can I do?" These words showed her situation, but it was also a blow to Xu Jiawen's arrogance.
"Nonsense, you were the one who seduced him." Xu Jiawen bit his lips, the storm brewing in his eyes was too intense.
"Ha!" Can you not be naive? " Ye Chaxu gave a bland and cold snort, and said with a displeased tone: "If you're capable, then just take Gu Shen away personally, and not force me to leave. Understood?"
"Ye Chaxu, you slut." Xu Jiawen bellowed in anger and raised his hand to slap Ye Chaxu's face.
Ye Chaxu sidestepped, and said coldly: "I won't let you hit me." She arrogantly walked out, and the moment she closed the door again, she said, "Xu Jiawen, I don't want to be with Gu Shen either. What you need to do is for him to let go of me, and not let me leave him."
Hearing Ye Chaxu's words, Xu Jiawen was stunned in place, his face full of astonishment.
Thinking about the important matters, she quickly took out her phone and sent a message to Lin Qiaoer.
Ye Chaxu looked at the red wine imprint on her skirt with a face of displeasure. If she wore this dress, it would be very funny, but she didn't care about it, she was afraid that she would lose face for Gu Shen.
Just then, Lin Qiaoer walked over from the other side of the corridor.
She stopped in front of Ye Chaxu and stared at the red mark on his skirt in shock. She asked in confusion: "What's wrong with your dress?"
Ye Chaxu frowned and laughed bitterly, describing: "I met a dog that bit people randomly."
Lin Qiaoer was startled for a second, and then suggested: "Your dress is dirty, so it is not suitable for you to wear. I have a new dress there, do you want to wear it?" Pausing for a moment, he then added, "I always bring an extra gown with me when I attend banquets to prevent accidents from happening."
Hearing that, Ye Chaxu hesitated, was this Lin Qiaoer really that kind?
"Ai!" I am not helping you, but I do not want to make Gu Shen lose face. After all, you are his female companion, so if you go out like this, it would be laughable. " Lin Qiaoer said again with a sincere expression.
Ye Chaxu originally wanted to reject, but hearing Lin Qiaoer's words, he agreed. "Alright, then thank you."
