When Mo Chi appeared at the banquet site, he was indeed quite a beauty for both men and women. She was wearing a short, simple dress and exquisite high heels. She held a handbag in her hand and stood at the entrance with a sweet smile. She wasn't affected by everyone's astonished gazes as she swept her gaze over the men and women who were saluting her, searching for the whereabouts of Long Fei.
At this moment, Long Fei was happily chatting with Yao Zhu. Perhaps because he was standing in the back, he didn't notice Mo Chi's appearance. It was unknown what the two of them were talking about, but they were happily chatting.
Seeing the two of them, the smile on Mo Chi's face faded bit by bit. However, she didn't do anything. Soon, she returned to her previous sweet smile when she first entered. This was a banquet site, and it was not suitable for any improper conduct.
In fact, since the moment Mo Chi entered, Yao Zhu had already noticed her. She just pretended that she didn't see him.
Perhaps it was because the crowd had been quiet for too long, but Long Fei finally felt something unusual. Coincidentally, at this moment, Yao Zhu nudged him with his elbow. She smiled and said, "Long Fei, why don't you see who's here? Is it necessary to welcome us?"
Only then did Long Fei see Mo Chi, who was standing outside the crowd, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face. Only then did Long Fei see Mo Chi, who was standing outside the crowd, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.
Normally, Mo Chi didn't like to dress up too much for himself and didn't like to attend events with him, so he rarely saw her dress up. Today, when he was at home, he saw her in a small dress and thought that she was going to a party. He didn't expect her to come here.
"Miss, whose family are you? Could it be that we went through the wrong door? " A man looked at Mo Chi and joked with him.
Another man quickly said, "It's fine if you make a mistake. There's so many good wine and delicacies here. It's quite fun."
"Then I'll be wrong." Mo Chi suddenly smiled, picked up the wine cup in the waiter's hand, and said to everyone, "Thank you for welcoming me. I'll have a cup with all of you." She thought to herself, since Long Fei didn't have the time to deal with her, then she should just take care of herself first.
The man drained his glass of wine and asked with a smile, "Miss, what is your name?"
"My name is Mo Chi." Mo Chi also downed a glass of red wine. A spicy feeling flashed across his throat. Only after drinking this cup did he remember that he was pregnant and shouldn't drink. The regret he felt was already beyond his reach. With this little life in her stomach, she couldn't get used to it in a short time, so she always forgot about it.
"Mo Chi... "What a familiar name." A man muttered in a low voice. He couldn't recall when he had seen this name on the wedding notice between Long Fei and Mo Chi, nor could he remember where he had seen this woman before.
Long Fei frowned and suddenly walked over. He grabbed Mo Chi's arm and sullenly stared at her: "What are you trying to do?" Was she here to cause a ruckus? It did not seem like something she could do, it was not her style of doing things.
Mo Chi felt a pinch of pain as she calmly raised her face and smiled, "You're here? I didn't see you and thought you were gone, or not yet. Heh … "Hello, Miss Yao. We meet again."
Mo Chi turned and followed behind Yao Zhu as he greeted her with a smile. Yao Zhu smiled and said, "Greetings, Miss Mo."
"You two know each other?" So it wasn't the wrong door? I thought I picked up a big bargain. " The man laughed out loud, and patted Long Fei's arm with the back of his hand: "I remember now, isn't this the Mrs Long that we called a million times to come out? "The Buddha who would normally not be able to be invited no matter how hard he tried was actually attending our reunion today. It is such an honour to be here."
"You talk too much, hurry up and shut up!" A woman appeared in the crowd, pinching the man's ear as she retreated towards the back of the crowd.
The crowd burst into laughter. Upon hearing that she was Long Fei's wife, the men and women who had never seen Mo Chi started to size her up once again. A woman said with a laugh, "It looks like our Young Master Long has pretty good taste. It's no wonder he gave up on a great beauty like Yao Zhu after finding such a beautiful wife. Congratulations to all of you for living together for a hundred years."
"Thank you." Mo Chi smiled as he raised his glass towards the woman. She couldn't tell if the woman's words were mocking her or Yao Zhu, but she could feel Yao Zhu's slightly changed expression.
Long Fei loosened his grip on her arm, and then pulled her into his arms. He smiled at everyone and said: "This is my wife, Mo Chi. She is currently working at a medical equipment company. I've never seen her today."
"Young Master Long, this is your mistake. The Long family is so rich, and they actually let such a beautiful little wife go to work?" This is too outrageous. " Another woman said with a smile. She then dragged out a woman covered in jewels from the crowd and said, "Look at that Fen Fen, the lucky young mistress. She's always having mahjong and beauty."
"Go. She also wants to go to work. She's overweight and can't easily find a job." The woman named Fenfen spat at her.
Long Fei was still smiling, "I also want to have a gentle wife who can be taught by a husband at home. Unfortunately, I don't have the same life as elder sister Feng's husband."
"Actually, there's nothing bad about going to work. After all, we are still young." Mo Chi leaned into Long Fei's embrace. She could feel that Long Fei's body was stiff, and his smile was stiff. It was unknown whether it was due to her sudden appearance.
Holding the wine cup in her hand, Yao Zhu was already a little intoxicated. She walked over with a smile and punched Long Fei's chest, "Damn it! I already told you that I like to improve myself, how did I suddenly fall in love with the little girl?"
"Men change, become as fast as women." Long Fei smiled and helped her up. "Are you alright?"
"Not bad, this little bit of wine is nothing. Come, come, come …" Everyone, drink up! " Yao Zhu took a glass of wine from the waiter's hand and said to everyone, "Today, everyone is fortunate enough to meet this new guest, Mrs Long. Shouldn't you toast this guest? Aren't you guys too naive? " With that, she turned back to Mo Chi, "Come, Miss Mo, let me toast you. I wish you a hundred years of good harmony."
"Thank you, but I'm sorry, I don't know how to drink, so I'll use boiling water in place of a bar." Mo Chi took a glass of water from a nearby table and was about to clink glasses with Yao Zhu, who dodged to the side and muttered, "How can I do this? Aren't you being too rude? "
"I'm sorry, I really don't know how to drink." Mo Chi was troubled. She was pregnant now, so she really couldn't drink.
Unfortunately, Yao Zhu didn't seem to plan on letting her go, so she turned to everyone and asked, "Everyone, do you think our Mrs Long is ungrateful? When I first came in, I had already seen the bottom. Now that it's my turn to drink, how can I not show you my face? "
Yes, yes, Mrs. Long is our new guest. How can we not drink?" Drink it quickly! "Haargh!" A group of well-meaning or malicious men and women began to heckle around Mochi, demanding that she drink the wine in her hand.
Mo Chi knew that Yao Zhu did it on purpose. If it was just her request, she would not hesitate to reject it. But those passionate men didn't have any ill intentions, and she was indeed a new customer. Since the other party had already said this much, it seemed that she had no choice but to drink it. However, she had already accidentally drunk a cup just now. If she were to drink another, how could the baby withstand it?
Mo Chi cast his pleading gaze on Long Fei. In this kind of situation, his male companions would usually help to block it. Usually, when she went out with Qian Cheng, he would do it without her saying it. There was no reason for Long Fei to not know about it, right?
And it wasn't that Long Fei didn't know how to help her, but that he didn't want to help her at all. His gaze deliberately didn't look at her. He still wasn't satisfied with Mo Chi's request for leave yesterday. Of course he wouldn't treat her so easily, so he chose to stand by and watch without doing anything.
The people in the room continued to jeer, and Mo Chi practically begged for mercy, "Everyone, I'm really sorry, I …"
"We don't need to apologize. We just need Mrs. Long to drink." Yao Zhu smiled, still unwilling to let her go. Another woman also chimed in: "Mrs. Long, since you're here, you should just relax and play, right? Even if Long Fei knows how to play, you shouldn't fall behind him, or else you won't get on top of him, right?"
The crowd agreed. Mo Chi started to regret coming here, he was regretting having a falling out with Yao Zhu. She forgot that she came to the banquet to drink and that she was pregnant. She didn't expect Long Fei to not protect her at all. It seemed that he was still angry at her. Otherwise, based on Long Fei's pampering of her, he wouldn't allow her to be humiliated by a group of people.
Long Fei hugged Mo Chi with one hand, and finally lowered his head to whisper in her ear, "Since you're here, don't try to put on airs and quickly drink the wine. Did you not see how enthusiastic everyone is?"
"I... I want to go to the bathroom. " Unable to push past him, Mo Chi had to break free and run for the door.
"Mrs. Long, the washroom isn't over there!" A waitress came over and led her to the bathroom. Actually, Mo Chi didn't want to go to the washroom, he was only forced to do this kind of escape.
Standing in front of the sink, Mo Chi looked at his well-dressed self in the mirror. The beauty he had imagined at home was no longer there. Fighting for jealousy really didn't suit her.
She turned on the tap and splashed cold water on her face to wash off the makeup. Cold droplets of water ran down her skin, and she couldn't help but shiver. He hurriedly pulled out a tissue to wipe the water droplets off his face. When he raised his head, he saw Yao Zhu standing behind him.
Mo Chi was startled by her sudden appearance. Her hair was slightly wet and there were droplets of water on her eyelashes. Yao Zhu was amused by her bedraggled look. Of course, she still looked very polite on the surface. She sized her up and smiled, "Miss Mo, what's wrong with you? Why do you have to get wet? Come, wipe off the water droplets on your face. "
As Yao Zhu handed over the paper, Mo Chi did not stand on ceremony with her. He took a tissue to wipe away the tears on his eyelashes and said, "Thank you."
Mo Chi suddenly felt something churning in her stomach, moving toward her throat. She said, "I'm sorry," and ran to the toilet, where she vomited into the toilet. This was the first pregnancy reaction she had experienced in her entire life. She hadn't eaten anything for dinner, so she could only spit out a little, but she couldn't finish no matter how she threw up.
Yao Zhu, standing outside the door, doubtfully sized her up. Holding back her disgust, she walked over, patting her on the back and asking, "Miss Mo, what's wrong? "Why are you vomiting so harshly?"
"Thank you. Maybe it's because of the alcohol." Mo Chi turned and ran back to the washbasin, using water to wash his face.
"So it turns out that you really can't drink it. I'm truly sorry for what happened just now." Yao Zhu followed him out.
Mo Chi shook his head and looked at her in the mirror, saying, "Miss Yao, you don't have to worry about me. I will just stay here for a while, you can go back now."
"Then I'll go back first. I'm afraid that others will be waiting for me, so remember to come over later to eat something to fill your stomach, do you understand?"
"I know, I'll be there in a moment." Yao Zhu turned around and walked out. Mo Chi looked at her leaving figure and was really puzzled in his heart. Why was she able to pretend that she was concerned and prepared for him even though she hated him so much?
