At this time, Bai Xinxin, who was always paying attention to whether or not Lu Yuanchen had arrived, saw Lu Yuanchen and immediately walked over with her skirt up.
She had a bright smile on her face as she affectionately called out to Lu Yuanchen. It was as if she was afraid that others wouldn't know of the relationship between her and Lu Yuanchen. Chen, you're here. "
Lu Yuanchen returned to his original appearance, cold and distant. He nodded slightly, "Yes."
When Su Xiaoxiao saw his favorite star walk towards him, his heart was so excited that it felt as if it was about to jump in his throat. He was even more surprised when he found out that Bai Xinxin and Lu Yuanchen seemed to be very familiar with each other. But thinking about it, his CEO was still the CEO of a listed company after all. It was not strange for him to know a few famous stars, and Su Xiaoxiao felt relieved.
Looking at the look in Bai Xinxin's eyes when he was looking at Lu Yuanchen, Su Xiaoxiao felt slightly uncomfortable in his heart. That undisguised expression, no matter how Su Xiaoxiao looked at it, made him uncomfortable, it was like a needle was stabbing into his chest.
Bai Xinxin only saw Lu Yuanchen. He was so happy that he seemed to have forgotten himself. Only after a long time did he realise that Su Xiaoxiao was holding onto Yuanchen's arm. Bai Xinxin's face immediately turned green.
Originally, Bai Xinxin was the one who invited Lu Yuanchen to this slaughter banquet. She wanted to be Lu Yuanchen's female companion to attend with Lu Yuanchen. Staring at Su Xiaoxiao's hand that was on Lu Yuanchen's arm, with his fingernail in his palm, the anger in his heart burned fiercely for an instant.
He didn't know if it was a coincidence or not, but Bai Xinxin was also wearing a red chest plastered evening dress today. The clothes of the two were very similar. Both of them seemed to like the same thing.
Bai Xinxin looked at Su Xiaoxiao with a sharp gaze.
Su Xiaoxiao innocently blinked his large eyes, not understanding just how he had offended Bai Xinxin. It was clearly just their first meeting, yet why was the other party filled with jealousy and resentment when he saw him?
A flash of hatred flashed past Bai Xinxin's eyes, before he returned to his usual indifferent smile. He reached out a hand and placed it on Yuanchen's arm, pretending to be intimate with her, and asked gently: "Yuanchen, who is this lady?" He was asking Lu Yuanchen, but he was looking at him. It was as if he was declaring his sovereignty over Su Xiaoxiao.
Lu Yuanchen glanced at Bai Xinxin, and pulled out his arm. There seemed to be some hesitation, but in the end, he still spoke up decisively. "She is my wife, Su Xiaoxiao."
As soon as Lu Yuanchen finished speaking, the two women were shocked.
Su Xiaoxiao never thought that Lu Yuanchen would admit their relationship in front of outsiders, after all, they only had an agreement, and she existed so that the Old Master would not force Lu Yuanchen to have a blind date. Su Xiaoxiao never thought that Lu Yuanchen would admit it in front of everyone. In an instant, she went from surprise to joy to sweetness. In the end, she lowered her head shyly, not daring to look at Lu Yuanchen.
Bai Xinxin's reaction was even greater, her eyes were filled with disbelief, as she opened her lips, unable to speak for a long time. Only after a long while did she finally manage to find her own voice, which was dry and stinging, "How could that be? Chen, stop joking around. " Bai Xinxin revealed a forced smile, obviously not believing Lu Yuanchen's words.
She had only been gone for a month, how could Lu Yuanchen marry another woman? Impossible, no, she didn't believe it. In an instant, astonishment, hatred, fury, and jealousy appeared in Bai Xinxin's eyes.
"I'm not joking." Lu Yuanchen answered seriously, with a serious look on his face.
Bai Xinxin's eyes instantly turned red, his body became weak, and he almost fainted. She knew how serious Lu Yuanchen was, and would never joke about her marriage. She only wanted to deceive herself. However, Lu Yuanchen had pierced through her disguise.
Lu Yuanchen stepped forward to support Bai Xinxin, his brows knitted slightly, and asked with concern: "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. Maybe I just drank a bit. I'm a bit dizzy." His heart seemed to have a large hole in it, as blood slowly flowed out.
Suppressing the pain of his heart breaking, Bai Xinxin smiled stiffly, "Congratulations … Yuanchen. " Every word he spoke felt as if he was drawing a knife across his chest.
Bai Xinxin's face was extremely pale, looking as though he would fall anytime, anyone could see how forced the smile on his face. Lu Yuanchen knew that he was the one who caused all of this. He frowned, hesitated for a moment, then said: "I'll help you rest for a while."
Then, he turned his head towards Su Xiaoxiao and explained: "I'll send Xinxin upstairs to rest first, you go eat something in the food area and wait for me to come back."
"Oh, okay." Su Xiaoxiao didn't know what was going on at all, but hearing Lu Yuanchen's instructions, he could only subconsciously nod his head. By the time he reacted, Lu Yuanchen had already supported Bai Xinxin and left the place a long time ago.
Su Xiaoxiao was a little naive but she was not stupid. No matter how slow she was, she could see the infatuation she had for Lu Yuanchen in Bai Xinxin's eyes. Su Xiaoxiao didn't know what had happened to him, but his heart suddenly hurt. Looking at Lu Yuanchen's leaving figure, Su Xiaoxiao really wanted to pull Lu Yuanchen's hand and ask him not to go. But the outstretched hand held only air.
Lu Yuanchen brought Bai Xinxin to the resting room upstairs. Bai Xinxin purposely leaned all the weight of his body on Lu Yuanchen's body.
Lu Yuanchen made Bai Xinxin sit on the sofa, then poured a cup of water for himself and placed it in front of her, "Drink a cup of water first."
Bai Xinxin held the cup tightly in his hand, and after a long while, he finally spoke: "You all … When did you get married? "
Lu Yuanchen knew that Bai Xinxin had not given up, and said coldly: "Two months ago."
"Why?" Bai Xinxin couldn't accept it for a while, so he asked with his head lowered and his voice hoarse.
"…" Lu Yuanchen remained silent.
"Do you love her?" Raising his head, his red eyes stared straight at Lu Yuanchen as he asked his question.
"…"
Lu Yuanchen had been silent all this while, causing Bai Xinxin to be unable to control his emotions, and he roared: "Have you forgotten your big sister? Didn't you say that you would only love your sister for your entire life? "Why, why did you marry another woman?" At this moment, Bai Xinxin was like an injured wild beast, and he could no longer control his tears as they rolled down the corners of his eyes.
Lu Yuanchen pursed her lips and frowned slightly. Only then did she see that she had lost control of her emotions, and said slowly: "Xinxin, wait until you calm down before we discuss this issue." Seeing Bai Xinxin who had gone too far, Lu Yuanchen regretted his recklessness a little. Even if he wanted to reject Bai Xinxin, he shouldn't have used such a direct method. He knew that regardless of whether it was intentional or not, he had hurt Bai Xinxin.
"I'm very calm now, I just want to know if you have fallen in love with that girl called Su Xiaoxiao." Bai Xinxin forced himself to calm down and asked word by word.
"Xinxin." Helplessly sighing, Lu Yuanchen said softly: "Xinxin, regardless of whether I like Xiaoxiao or not, it is already a fact that she is my wife."
With a "pa" sound, the cup of water slid down his hand and instantly shattered into pieces on the ground.
