Chapter 676: Beauty with Thorns
Xiao Chengxi, who was on the verge of a rage, finally relaxed and a smile appeared on his face.
"Sooner or later, I will pay back double the humiliation I suffered today."
"It's good that you think so. If you want to achieve great things, you have to endure when you need to."
Yuan Shuyi took a look and saw that Yin Manqing, who was chatting and laughing at the banquet, had a look of resentment in her eyes.
She should die earlier. She is the one Xiao Yuan loves. The one who is not loved should get out as soon as possible.
Originally, Yuan Shuyi was the protagonist of the day, but when Yin Manqing arrived, a lot fewer people talked to her.
There is no fool among those who can come to the banquet today. No matter what, Yin Manqing is the real Madam Xiao, and she holds shares in the Xiao Group. If they don't curry favor with her, do they have to curry favor with Yuan Shuyi, who has been his mistress for half his life?
Although she hated him to death in her heart, Yuan Shuyi still smiled as she went to greet people she knew. If she just left like this today, she would be laughed at to death. She was so strong-willed, how could she allow people to laugh at her behind her back?
Ye Jintang, who came to the banquet with Zhou Wuyou, was wearing a black dress and a black hat on her head. The hanging gauze covered most of her face.
She wore the Heart of the Ocean around her neck, but few people paid attention to her. Even if someone saw her, they would just think she was wearing a replica of the Heart of the Ocean. No one would have thought that there was someone in this world who could replicate an identical Heart of the Ocean.
Ye Jintang was dressed very low-key, and Zhou Wuyou breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really afraid that someone would miss her.
Zhou Wuyou also had many friends there, and he took Ye Jintang with him to talk.
Among them was Zhou Jinchen. When they were chatting, they mentioned that it turned out that the restaurant that Ye Jintang visited last time was also opened by him.
"I went to nightclubs twice and was disturbed almost every time. I have the worst luck."
Ye Jintang was speechless about this matter.
"This is easy to solve. Next time you go to KTV, there will be beautiful male models to accompany you."
"Oh, it's not your family's business, is it?"
"I have more businesses under my control."
"Then we'll meet at KTV next time. Mr. Zhou can't hide it and introduce the best male model to me."
Zhou Jinchen glanced at Zhou Wuyou with a smile, and agreed readily.
"The male models I have are all vixens. Can Jintang resist the temptation?"
Ye Jintang laughed so hard that her body shook.
"Then it all depends on your ability."
As they were chatting and laughing, Ye Jintang saw Yuan Shuyi holding a wine glass and walking towards the dining area.
As soon as she saw the opportunity, she immediately found an excuse to follow.
Yuan Shuyi, as her name suggests, looks gentle and virtuous, but this woman is ruthless and does not leave any way for others to survive.
In order to kill Xiao Mo's parents, she did not hesitate to implicate innocent people and caused eight families to be torn apart. How could such a vicious woman be allowed to die too easily? Slowly torturing her to death is the best punishment for her.
Doesn't she like to poison people? Then she will let her taste what it feels like to be poisoned.
There were probably thousands of poisons in Ye Jintang's space. She picked one whose effect was quite similar to the poison Xiao Mo had suffered, and let her enjoy it first.
Ye Jintang, holding a wine glass, quickly caught up with Yuan Shuyi. Her arm touched her lightly, and some fine powder fell on her.
"Excuse me."
Ye Jintang smiled at Yuan Shuyi, turned and left.
The two of them didn't have much contact, and Yuan Shuyi didn't take it to heart. She turned around and continued to get her food.
There were very few people talking to her at the party, and she needed to find something to do to cover up her embarrassment.
As soon as she arrived at the food area, she felt her arms a little itchy. She looked down and found that many small red papules had appeared on her arms without her knowing when. Those papules did not look serious, but they were extremely itchy.
Yuan Shuyi didn't bother to cover up, and quickly put down the wine glass in her hand and scratched her arm.
Unexpectedly, the rash on my arm became larger and larger the more I scratched it, and soon the other arm was also covered with rash.
She was so scared that she quickly asked Xiao Chengxi to find Xiao Yuan to take her to the hospital.
"Nonsense, there are so many distinguished guests at the banquet today, how can I just leave? Besides, even if I go to the hospital, I can't help at all. You should go with your mother and I will come to see you after I finish my work here."
Xiao Yuan sat in a wheelchair with an ugly look on his face.
He felt extremely tired after standing for only a short while. In contrast, Yin Manqing was walking around the banquet hall in high spirits, so dazzling that he could not take his eyes off her.
"Push me to find Manqing."
Xiao Yuan no longer paid attention to Xiao Chengxi and tried to please Yin Manqing instead.
Seeing Xiao Yuan's attitude, Xiao Chengxi had no choice but to take Yuan Shuyi to the hospital first.
"Chengxi, remember this. Sooner or later, you will help me get back the humiliation I and you suffered today."
Yuan Shuyi glanced at Xiao Yuan, her expression as ugly as it could be.
"I've written it all down."
When Xiao Chengxi looked towards the banquet hall before leaving, he saw Ye Jintang standing next to Zhou Wuyou.
With just one glance, just half of her face, he was stunned by her beauty.
However, he had to accompany Yuan Shuyi to the hospital and could not take care of her.
Xiao Mo also came today. He was wearing a mask, so few people recognized him.
As soon as he entered the banquet hall, he saw Ye Jintang and Zhou Wuyou together.
Looking at the two people talking and laughing, he was jealous to the point of madness.
"Xiaomo, come here."
When Yin Manqing saw Xiao Mo, she immediately pulled him over.
Although she just announced that Xiao Junyu would serve as vice chairman, she also had to pave the way for Xiao Mo.
Before coming, Xiao Mo had already reached an agreement with Xiao Junyu, and the two of them would join forces to take over the Xiao family's assets. As for the other illegitimate children, don't even think about it, as they would not get any share of the Xiao family's assets.
Yin Manqing took Xiao Mo and introduced him to someone she knew.
Everyone had only heard of Xiao Mo's existence before, and this was the first time they saw him.
Xiao Mo wore a mask and did not show his full face. He greeted everyone very politely. When it came to dealing with people, he was absolutely flawless.
Xiao Yuan, who just came here, hasn't seen Xiao Mo for almost two years. In his impression, Xiao Mo's face was covered with sores. Usually when he met people, he would wear glasses and a baseball cap in addition to a mask. Today he came out only wearing a mask, which was really strange.
However, Xiao Yuan soon understood why Xiao Mo came out to meet people. There were no disgusting sores on the exposed skin on his face.
Could it be that the poison on Xiao Mo’s face has been cured?
"Xiao Mo."
"Grandpa, long time no see."
There was no emotion in Xiao Mo's words, but Xiao Yuan still clearly felt a sense of alienation.
"Is the carbuncle on your face healed?"
"I'll tell Grandpa about this later."
"Okay, after the party is over, you and your grandma can go back to the old house."
Xiao Yuan did not allow Xiao Mo and Yin Manqing to refuse and arranged the follow-up matters directly. Now he was eager to know how many secrets Yin Manqing and Xiao Mo had hidden.
