It should have been a peaceful and happy gathering, but because of the arrival of Chen Xi, it made Duan Wenyu feel like she was suffocating, especially after hearing what she had said just now.
"Who told you I hate her?" Duan Wenyu looked at Chen Xi fiercely.
Since she didn't acknowledge his identity, she would never be able to regain it.
"Miss Duan, are you not afraid of the CEO hearing your words? After all, the CEO always thought I was his wife. " Chen Xi's words had crossed Duan Wenyu's bottom line.
In these past few years, she had always controlled herself well. Although Tang Hongbo would not take the initiative to approach women, there were definitely women who would want to get close to him. However, all of these women who wanted to get close to Tang Hongbo were all driven away by her.
let alone Chen Xi, who looked the same as her, she would even less allow her to approach Tang Hongbo.
"Chen Xi, let me tell you, don't even think about Hong Hongbo. As long as I am here, you can forget about ever becoming him." Duan Wenyu looked at her with scarlet eyes.
Chen Xi sneered.
Oh, right. I heard that three years ago, Duan Wenzhuo went missing for no reason. This can't be related to you, right? " Chen Xi took a step forward, and probed her with a surprised tone.
She didn't believe that she didn't have a shred of fear and guilt in her heart.
As expected, Duan Wenyu widened her eyes in fear, her pupils contracted as she sneered in her heart. The debt that she had paid three years ago, she would slowly get it back.
Duan Wenyu replied sternly.
"You, what nonsense are you spouting? What does it have to do with me? Do you think you can talk nonsense just because you're a French designer? " Duan Wenyu spoke incoherently.
Chen Xi smiled slightly.
"It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter. Why are you so nervous?"
"When did I get nervous?" Duan Wenyu said as she looked around at her surroundings.
"Could it be that you don't know that today is the anniversary of our Duan Clan?"
"I know." Chen Xi replied quickly.
Duan Wenyu's expression turned cold.
"If you know, why aren't you scram? You're not welcome here."
However, Chen Xi suddenly had a wronged look on her face as she looked at Tang Hongbo who was walking over from behind her.
"CEO, I already told you that I don't want to come. Now that people don't welcome me, I think it's better for me to leave."
Duan Wenyu was shocked, and subconsciously turned her head around.
"Hong, Hongbo."
Tang Hongbo walked in front of the two of them and asked while looking at Chen Xi's wronged expression.
"What's going on?"
"What else could it be? People don't welcome me." Chen Xi said indifferently.
Duan Wenyu looked coldly at Chen Xi, and then explained to Tang Hongbo in a soft voice.
"Hongbo, I didn't, it's obviously her …"
"Yes, I clearly have a face like Duan Wenzhuo's, but I'm not Duan Wenzhuo, am I?" Chen Xi interrupted Duan Wenyu.
"You, you, who do you think you are? You're just a scammer and you want to pretend to be my sister? Do you believe that I'll call the police right now?" Duan Wenyu said hatefully.
"Have you caused enough trouble?" Tang Hongbo suddenly interrupted them with a cold voice.
"I'm not making trouble, she's a liar. Hongbo, don't be tricked by her." Duan Wenyu whispered beside Tang Hongbo.
She acted like a spoiled child.
Chen Xi suddenly felt nauseous. In terms of how a woman mastered her acting skills, she would know from just looking at Duan Wenyu. Her acting skills were also at the peak of perfection.
With regards to this, Chen Xi respected her a lot, because she had been tricked into such a miserable state because of her acting skills. That was why she had the current Chen Xi.
"Alright, your parents are looking for you over there. Go quickly." Tang Hongbo said softly.
Duan Wenyu looked at her hatefully, then unwillingly snorted and turned to leave.
The expression in Tang Hongbo's eyes when he looked at her suddenly became complicated. All of them were present.
People were coming and going around them, but Chen Xi and Tang Hongbo looked at each other. It was as if there were only the two of them in the world, and the entire world had turned still.
In the end, Tang Hongbo still spoke first.
"Are you alright?"
Chen Xi asked with a low laugh.
"Are you asking me or her?"
Tang Hongbo laughed.
"What do you think?"
But Chen Xi didn't want to keep him in the dark, so she said that with a cold voice.
"Rather than being unpopular here, it's better to go home and sleep. CEO, you stay here by yourself slowly. I'm leaving first."
"But I just saw you angering Wenyu to the point that her face changed, why? What did you tell her? " Tang Hongbo suddenly asked.
Chen Xi turned her head and smiled.
"Why don't you ask her what I said to her?"
"Xi Xi, do you have to speak to me like this?" Tang Hongbo was a little helpless.
"Otherwise? I don't seem to be very familiar with the CEO either. Do you still expect me to be like the Miss Duan and act coquettishly with you at any time and place? " Chen Xi said coldly.
Tang Hongbo suddenly did not speak, and when he raised his head again, the sadness on his face had been wiped away.
"Xi Xi, actually, Wenyu and I don't have anything, nor is we anything."
"CEO, you've probably forgotten that I'm Chen Xi, not your wife. Even if you and Miss Duan have something to discuss, you don't need to explain it to me." She didn't want to say those words that would hurt him, but she had to say that she didn't want to give him any hope, and she didn't want to give him a chance to soften her heart.
She was afraid that if he spoke another soft word, she wouldn't be able to hold back from telling him the truth. However, she had a grudge against him in her heart. If she didn't understand what happened three years ago, how could she be willing?
No matter how much patience Tang Hongbo had, he had already used up all of it.
"Do you really think so?" Tang Hongbo said in a cold voice.
After all, since he was young, no one had ever looked at him coldly or spoken coldly. Even if the other party was Chen Xi, he still felt that they were challenging his authority.
However, he didn't know that when he saw her, he had already abandoned all of his dignity.
All of his waiting, all of the sleepless nights, had all turned into anger. But now, looking at Chen Xi, other than feeling heartache, he had no other thoughts other than wanting to pull her into his embrace.
"Do I think it's important?" After Chen Xi finished speaking, she wanted to leave immediately.
Why, Tang Hongbo grabbed her wrist.
"You can't leave yet."
"Why?" Chen Xi asked harshly.
"You're here as my girlfriend, how can you leave now?" Tang Hongbo randomly found an excuse.
"You're a female companion, not a female slave. Can you still restrict my personal freedom?" Chen Xi said unwillingly.
"Right, you are working right now. If you dare to leave, I will deduct your bonus and salary." Tang Hongbo said fiercely.
Chen Xi looked at him hatefully. He was really childish, and just as he was about to say whatever he wanted to say, Tang Hongbo had already opened his mouth.
"You wait here. I have something to do, so don't run around."
Chen Xi saw that his expression wasn't good, and left with a serious expression.
She did not think too much into it, nor did she take Tang Hongbo's words to heart. Just as she was about to leave, she saw Han Hao walking over with a smile while holding the cup.
"Brother Han Hao, why is it only now that I can see you?" Seeing Han Hao, Chen Xi revealed her true smile for the first time tonight.
"There's something going on. I've delayed it for a while, and I just had to deal with it over there. Oh yeah, what are you doing?" Han Hao looked at her and asked.
Chen Xi advised.
"I'm a bit bored, I want to go."
"So fast?" Han Hao was surprised.
"Otherwise? It's so boring here. " Chen Xi said.
"Then I'll take you to meet my friend. It will be very helpful to your future career." Han Hao said with a smile.
"Alright then." Chen Xi thought for a moment, then agreed.
Actually, Han Hao had seen her a long time ago, but when he saw that she was together with Tang Hongbo, the doubt in his heart grew bigger and bigger. He wanted to ask her, but he didn't know how to start.
He could only find an excuse so that she could temporarily stay by his side tonight.
Han Hao brought her into the crowd.
They were all just jewelry manufacturers, and some business leaders. She nodded and greeted them one by one. Some praised her beauty, some praised her youth and abilities, and some even said that she was a vase.
Whether it was praise or mockery, she accepted them one by one, then turned around and forgot about them.
Han Hao brought her and wandered around this intoxicated place. No matter how much wine she drank, she had to work hard to maintain her state of mind. She held the wine cup, her eyes were a little blurry, could it be that she had drank too much?
When she turned around, Han Hao was no longer in sight. Instead, she saw a group of women led by Duan Wenyu standing behind her.
She wanted to turn around and leave, but she was helpless. Someone was trying to stir up trouble.
"You, aren't you Duan Wenzhuo?" Suddenly, a sweet-looking girl standing behind Duan Wenyu exclaimed.
Duan Wenyu sneered.
"She's not my silly sister. She's a jewelry designer from France." Duan Wenyu looked at Chen Xi with a sour tone.
"With her? Jewelry designers? "No matter how I look at it, she seems to be a fox spirit, a fox spirit who has changed her appearance. No matter how she puts it, she still looks like an illegitimate daughter of Duan Wenzhuo, a fox spirit. Another woman said harshly.
