Lu Yanbei stood in the center of the crowd in a crisp suit. He was tall and distinguished in temperament. His face was expressionless and his eyes were half-pressed, showing an arrogant and indifferent indifference, as if he was far away from the hustle and bustle.

The man was originally chatting with several business tycoons. Behind him, several wealthy ladies from aristocratic families squeezed in through the crowd and chatted with the man. Their eyes were filled with envy and admiration.

Ji Xingchen looked not far away, his eyes gradually changed from indifferent to one looking like he was watching a good show.

Indifferent because the moment I saw it, my heart felt like being pricked by needles.

Watching a good show is because when your heart calms down, the stinging feeling disappears and is replaced by the indifference of bystanders.

Gu Yao was still marveling: "I see that Lu Yanbei attracts bees and butterflies better than Zhou Minglang. Zhou Minglang did it by himself, while your husband automatically released pollen just standing there, attracting a bunch of bees to come and pick flowers."

Ji Xingchen raised his eyebrows: "Your metaphor is quite appropriate."

Gu Yao looked at her and asked curiously: "Aren't you worried that your husband will be seduced by those butterflies?"

Ji Xingchen said amusedly: "You look like a bee and a flower and a butterfly. You're all very fancy."

"Don't change the subject. Do you really not care now?"

Gu Yao was really curious. A person's eyes could not deceive others. Although she was not familiar with Ji Xingchen in the past, it was inevitable that they would meet each other during the cocktail party. The way she looked at Lu Yanbei at that time, it was obvious that she was in love.

Unwilling.

Now I don't see any reluctance or jealousy at all.

I don't know if she hid it well or if she really didn't care anymore.

"You are such a gossip." Ji Xingchen did not answer the question directly, but raised his eyes and glanced at Lu Yanbei, who happened to be looking over.

The two people's eyes collided in the air.

When their eyes met, Ji Xingchen suddenly narrowed his eyes. After seeing the curve of the corners of the man's lips, an ominous premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

The next second, she saw the man bending down and not knowing what he said to the women. Then, she saw him slowly walking towards her with a wine glass in his hand.

Those few butterflies were following him, looking towards her with vague hostility in their eyes.

Gu Yao shook Ji Xingchen's arm excitedly: "Come on, they're here!"

Ji Xingchen twitched the corner of his mouth and said expressionlessly: "I saw it, I'm not blind yet."

Gu Yao didn't care whether she was blind or not, she just thought she was in for a good show.

The man picked up a piece of dessert on the way, walked over and handed it to Ji Xingchen.

Condescendingly, with a low voice: "Honey, your favorite strawberry cake."

Ji Xingchen: "..."

"She is your wife?!" A girl behind her was surprised, and whispered to the others in an authentic southern accent: "Isn't this Ji Xingchen? Oh, how could such a handsome man marry her? I heard that she has a bad temper

Very bad.”

"That's right. No wonder he just said that his wife is very fierce. It turns out to be Ji Xingchen. Let's go quickly. I heard that she is not easy to mess with."

"let's go."

They spoke in Nancheng's native dialect and backed away after a long discussion.

Ji Xingchen, who understood the whole process:...

Sisters, why don’t you say bad things about people behind their backs? How about arranging them in front of others?

Her eyelids twitched slightly and she glared at the culprit: "Don't go around ruining my reputation outside."

Lu Yanbei smiled half-heartedly: "I just told them that I am a strict wife."

Strict wife control?

When Ji Xingchen heard this, he just wanted to laugh, "I didn't expect Mr. Lu to give me such face outside."

"It should be." Lu Yanbei smiled lightly: "Would you like to eat the cake?"

Ji Xingchen held her stomach. She was indeed a little hungry. Looking at the beautifully decorated cake, she took it without hesitation.

Gu Yao: "Mr. Lu, I'm sitting next to you. Don't you want to bring an extra piece?"

Lu Yanbei: "Ask Zhou Sui for it."

Gu Yao: "..."

Said Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived.

Zhou Sui, Tang Yi and Fu Jinbai came together.

Zhou Sui saw Gu Yao next to Ji Xingchen at a glance: "Yao Yao, do you want to eat cake?"

Gu Yao: "I don't want to."

Zhou Sui raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He didn't care about her different attitudes before and after, and pulled Fu Jinbai and Tang Yi to sit down on the sofa.

"Master Tang."

As soon as they sat down, a familiar voice came to their ears.

Ji Xingchen's heart skipped a beat.

Looking up, she saw Liang Ruo coming towards them carrying a large gift box.

Ji Xingchen gritted his teeth and glanced at Tang Yi coldly.

Tang Yi immediately spread his hands and whispered: "It's none of my business. I didn't give her an invitation. She came with Jiang Shu."

Today is a birthday banquet. Mu Yun thinks that everyone should be happy and is not so strict with the guests. Jiang Shu brought several friends over, and Mu Yun let them in for the sake of the Jiang family.

When Tang Yi knew that Liang Ruo was also here, he guessed that Ji Xingchen would be unhappy, but there was nothing he could do. Mu Yun had spoken, and there was nothing he could do to stop him.

Ji Xingchen was eating the cake by himself without even raising his head.

Zhou Sui and Fu Jinbai looked at each other and at the same time looked at Lu Yanbei.

The latter was calm and composed, and did not seem to have any special reaction because of anyone's arrival.

Gu Yao is different. She deeply despises this kind of woman who knows that the other party has a wife, but still insists on getting on the pole to seduce her.

What age has it been and still wants to be a mistress? Doesn’t this Liang Ruo have a problem with his moral character?

So as soon as Liang Ruo came, she made a bad face.

Liang Ruo seemed not to notice that she was not welcome here, and handed the gift to Tang Yi: "Master Tang, this is a set of jewelry I personally designed for my aunt. It is inlaid with diamonds and jewelry. I like it for my aunt."

like."

When giving gifts, you must also clearly indicate the value. A sarcasm flashed across Tang Yi's eyes.

He waved and a waiter came over.

Tang Yi: "Take Miss Liang's gift to the guest room upstairs."

"Okay, Mr. Tang." The waiter took the gift box from Liang Ruo.

Liang Ruo glanced around, and finally landed on the man in charge, and said warmly: "Yanbei, why didn't you answer the phone when I called you this afternoon?"

Lu Yanbei: "There is no signal on the plane."

Liang Ruo wanted to find a seat to sit down, but there was no space, so she could only stand next to her, "Oh, so that's it. I knew you wouldn't intentionally not answer my call."

Ji Xingchen watched coldly and stopped moving after eating a few spoonfuls of cake. She likes to eat desserts, but she can't eat too much. Firstly, she is afraid of getting fat, and secondly, she will get tired if she eats too much.

The Tang family's pastry chef is very skilled and the cakes are sweet but not greasy.

But Ji Xingchen also had no appetite to eat anymore.

Mainly because seeing Liang Ruo made her sick.

Gu Yao sneered and mocked: "It turns out that some people really call married men every day. Miss Liang has taught me a lot."
