Ruan Danchen asked curiously: "Song Yu, why are you so red?"
"The wind blew just now." Song Yu said without changing his expression.
Qi Chengzhi looked at the words he had just said with satisfaction. Before he sent them out, he even repeatedly checked them, while his mind calculated Song Yu's reaction.
Although she didn't reply, Qi Chengzhi was very satisfied.
When they arrived at the dynasty, in order to guard against the cold, Song Yu wore a long black skirt that reached down to her ankles, and a fur cape.
Although there was air conditioning in the banquet hall, it was still a bit chilly in this weather.
"Look at that Shu Ye, he really has the heart of a warrior. Even though Qi Chengzhi had said it so clearly, she still smirked and moved closer. I have to admit that these female celebrities have such strong mental fortitude." Ruan Danchen whispered into Song Yu's ear.
Hearing this, Song Yu saw Shu Ye standing in front of Qi Chengzhi, talking and laughing with him.
Unlike Shu Yue's sweet smile, Qi Chengzhi expressionlessly listened to Shu Ye's words. He would only occasionally open his mouth to say something, and no one knew what he said.
Suddenly, Qi Chengzhi's gaze turned over and met her gaze.
He raised a single eyebrow and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, as if he was proud that she had caught him peeking at her.
Song Yu's face was flushed red, she was so stiff that she didn't know what to do.
Now turn your head away, feeling guilty.
But looking at it all the time, it was a little too thick-skinned.
She did not move, and Qi Chengzhi did not look away either. He just looked at her, and the smile on his face became even more obvious.
Jian Yi held onto the champagne, and was perhaps the only person in the place who noticed the two's eyes interacting with each other, he had a gloomy face, his fingers squeezing hard into the cups, and even his fingertips squeezed until they were bloodless white.
Just as Song Yu was at a loss of what to do, she heard Guan Xiaolin's voice. "Song Song."
Song Yu withdrew her gaze and saw Guan Xiaolin walking in front of her with a hint of loneliness in her eyes.
Guan Xiaolin affectionately grabbed Song Yu's hand, her eyes begging: "Song Song, can I have a talk with you?"
Ruan Danchen stood at the side. She was curious as to why Song Yu had such a relationship with the young miss of the Guan Family, and why Guan Xiaolin called her that intimately.
Without asking anything, she walked away in silence.
"Song Song, I know that you are angry at me. Back then, I was also obsessed with it and fell for Jian Yi, so I didn't hide it from you on purpose." Guan Xiaolin said pitifully, her eyes red as though she was about to cry.
Song Yu shook her head, "Miss Guan, in public, don't hold me back.
"Song Song, you won't forgive me, will you?" Guan Xiaolin did not let go, but held her hand even tighter.
"There's nothing I shouldn't forgive." Song Yu was expressionless as she forcefully retracted her hand, "We are no longer friends, and this is not because of the matter between you and Jian Yi, but because of what you have done that made my heart turn cold. I don't know how many more things you've done behind my back, and I don't dare to trust you anymore. "So, you just need to nod your head when you meet me in the future. Don't call me that affectionately anymore."
"Song Song, what I said the other day were just angry words, I —"
Song Yu already didn't want to hear it anymore. If she hadn't heard it that day, she never knew that Guan Xiaolin thought so highly of her. She didn't know that Guan Xiaolin had always been competing with her in her heart, and had such a huge opinion of her.
"I'm sorry, but I'm going to the washroom, so I'll take my leave first." Song Yu said coldly, ignoring Guan Xiaolin's sincere expression, she turned and left.
She really did go to the washroom, either to make it convenient or to hide from people, wanting to have some peace and quiet.
He had never expected that attending a banquet would cause so many headaches.
Song Yu sighed, rubbed the corner of her eyes, and carefully didn't touch her face, before leaving the washroom.
As soon as she stepped out of the door, she ran into a man's arms.
"Hug —" Before she could finish apologizing, Song Yu raised her head and stopped in her tracks.
"Song Song." Jian Yi hugged her, his lips pressed against her hair as he muttered.
She had a faint smell of alcohol on him, causing Song Yu to stiffen in place, not moving at all, "You're drunk, let go of me."
"I'm not letting go, Song Song, don't leave me, I'm begging you." Jian Yi said in a low voice, "I hate it when I can only look at you from afar. "Song Song, I tried my best to climb higher. I just wanted to be worthy of you. I never thought of lying to you."
"Jian Yi, are you not afraid that someone would come to the washroom and carry me all the way to Qi Chengyue's ears?" Song Yu said coldly.
Jian Yi's body stiffened. After a moment of hesitation, he slowly let go of her.
Song Yu sneered, "As soon as you heard Qi Chengyue's name, you became afraid. You still want to be worthy of me? What you said is worthy of me, so you want me to secretly follow you? If I'm so important to you, why would you do this to me? If that's the case, you'll never deserve me. "
"Really, don't bother me anymore!" Song Yu gnashed her teeth and said, "Stop coming to find my parents, where do you have the face to do that? To slander me in front of them like a villain, what right do you have to do that? "
"That day …" You went back? " Jian Yi asked softly, his fists by his legs tightening and loosening.
"Yeah, but when I heard your voice, I left. This is my attitude. Don't make me hate you even more. " Song Yu glared at him in disgust, took two steps back, pulled away from him, and then walked around him.
As she rounded him, she pressed herself against the other wall of the corridor, so far away from him that it was as if she were sick of being so close to him.
Jian Yi's gaze had been following her the entire time. Seeing her sticking to the other wall, trying to distance himself as far from him as possible, Jian Yi clenched his fists in pain.
If he wanted to, he could take a step forward and reach out and grab her again.
However, he didn't. His eyes were filled with pain, his throat was in pain, and as he watched Song Yu walk further and further away, his eyes grew wider.
Just as Song Yu turned around the corner and was about to enter the banquet hall, she was stopped by someone at the entrance.
Qi Chengyue proudly stood there, dressed in a dress that was much more expensive than the one she was wearing.
Song Yu did not want to get to know her too much, perhaps it was because she was a young lady of Qi Family and had been spoiled too much since she was young.
After experiencing the last joyous event, Song Yu's impression of Qi Chengyue fell to the extreme.
Seeing Qi Chengyue standing at the door and blocking her way, Song Yu guessed that she had done it on purpose.
Song Yu nodded coldly, called "Miss Qi" and was about to bypass her to enter the banquet hall.
Qi Chengyue moved her footsteps, and once again moved in front of her to block the attack.
Her unreasonable pestering made Song Yu angry, and made him angry as well.
Song Yu pursed her lips and looked at Qi Chengyue coldly.
Qi Chengyue's face became even colder, provoked by Song Yu's attitude, a man who only knows how to wear this kind of cheap-looking dress when she is out of stock, what kind of act is that, to dare face her with such an impatient and even angry attitude!
Qi Chengyue crossed her arms in front of her chest and said coldly: "Song Yu, you don't care at all about what I told you that night, right? To seduce Jian Yi in such a public place, do you really not want that face anymore? "
"Miss Qi, please take note of your words. Ever since the night I met you, I have had no contact with Jian Yi. I disdain being a mistress, and even more so, I hate being a mistress to a man like Jian Yi! I didn't love him enough to sacrifice myself, and he wasn't good enough for me to do anything for him. "
"Stopping me from questioning you like a shrew, why don't you think about whether this matches your identity as a Miss Qi Family?" Song Yu's cold lips curled into a forced smile.
The hallway was open. Although there was an air conditioner, the temperature was lower than the banquet hall by a few degrees. After standing there for a long time, Song Yu felt cold and covered herself with a shawl.
"Song Yu, don't think that you can change the topic just by saying this!" Qi Chengyue's face was somewhat sinister and ruthless. She grabbed onto Song Yu's wrist excitedly and clenched her fist with all her might.
Song Yu felt a bit of pain from her grasp, and frowned: "Let go!"
"When I saw you walking out with Jian Yi just now, you were so reluctant to part with him. You liked him that much, yet you still want to pester him in this public place? What did you tell him to make him see you? "
"Song Yu, there are so many men in this world, why do you like other people's man so much? It's better to have other people's men, isn't it? " Qi Chengyue grabbed Song Yu's wrist even more forcefully, but her voice was still not loud, afraid that she would embarrass herself if word of this spread.
Song Yu sighed helplessly, how could this Qi Chengyue be so unreasonable?
Qi Chengyue was the only daughter of the family. Her parents had been spoiled to the point where they could not take care of her since she was young, and she had developed the pampered temperament of a young miss.
