Sitting in the wheelchair was Pei Yaochi, who had just been dumped.
No one expected them to meet under such circumstances.
Pei Yaochi had yet to recover from her injuries, but she wasn’t willing to be trapped in the hospital. Coincidentally, there was a celebration party today and Shen Fanxing said that she wanted to officially announce that she was entering Stars International. Hence, she came to join in the fun.
Even though she was in a wheelchair and couldn’t move fast, Shen Fanxing still got Ou Ximing to massage her.
Her thick bangs had disappeared, revealing her smooth forehead. Her contact lenses had replaced her usual glasses, revealing her exquisite features.
She was wearing a white dress with a thin white blanket covering her legs. Coupled with Ou Ximing’s meticulous care, she looked completely different from before.
If she wasn’t sitting in the wheelchair and if her eyes weren’t familiar, Gu Zeyan wouldn’t have recognized that the woman in front of him was Pei Yaochi.
Surprise flashed across Gu Zeyan’s eyes and his body stiffened slightly. Xia Yao easily sensed his reaction. She gritted her teeth and tugged at Gu Zeyan.
Pei Yaochi glanced at Gu Zeyan calmly. Her gaze lingered on Xia Yao’s arm before she retracted her gaze.
She was even more distant than a stranger.
Ye Qingqiu stood at the side and witnessed Pei Yaochi’s actions. Her eyes flickered.
Pretending to be a stranger?
Her lips twitched imperceptibly before she pursed them tightly, not knowing if she should.
“Let’s go in.”
Her assistant pushed Pei Yaochi and walked past Gu Zeyan. Ye Qingqiu followed behind calmly.
Behind them, two people walked out of the elevator.
The man was tall and handsome. The woman was beautiful like a goddess.
–
Gu Zeyan’s gaze followed Pei Yaochi. Even after they left, he didn’t retract his gaze.
Xia Yao looked at him and anger surged in her heart!
From the moment they entered the hotel, their usual attitude had changed. They mocked and ridiculed her. Now that Pei Yaochi appeared in front of everyone as though she had changed, Gu Zeyan was even more stunned…
The Xia family had just suffered an accident and everyone’s attitude towards her had changed overnight. Even Gu Zeyan was the same…
If the Xia family was fine now, who would dare to treat her like this?
It was all because of her shameless and perverted father!
Pei Yaochi had dressed up like this on purpose to make things difficult for her!
The sudden change in the Xia family forced her to accept this reality, but how could she accept it so quickly?
After falling from the clouds into the mud, the only person she could rely on was Gu Zeyan!
Even though Gu Zeyan had restrained his expression, Xia Yao was still furious.
In the banquet hall, after seeing Pei Yaochi, the celebrities who had been surrounding her all surrounded her.
“Sister Yaochi, congratulations on signing with Stars International.”
“I heard that she was personally invited by CEO Shen. Yaochi, don’t forget that CEO Shen has a sharp eye for people!”
“I heard that CEO Shen has already arranged a role for you. It seems like you’re going to be famous.”
Pei Yaochi responded with a polite smile.
Being in a circle with clear pros and cons, she had long seen through the truth. Faced with these compliments, she could only smile and not slap the smiling person.
She didn’t enjoy the feeling of being catered to by others. If she cared, she wouldn’t have run out of the house to follow Gu Zeyan.
However, what she didn’t care about was something that some people had obtained and enjoyed previously. Xia Yao stood not far away and looked at her, gritting her teeth.
At this moment, someone saw the two of them and looked at Pei Yaochi with a strange expression.
Pei Yaochi couldn’t help but see the two of them. She sneered in her heart and sneered.
That subtle expression completely ignited the anger in Xia Yao’s heart. She held Gu Zeyan’s arm and stepped forward, blocking Pei Yaochi’s wheelchair.
Pei Yaochi frowned and looked at the two of them coldly. Her gaze was cold and sharp, causing Gu Zeyan to be in a daze.
Gu Zeyan couldn’t help but say,
“Yaochi…”
“What’s the matter?”
He only called out to her softly before Pei Yaochi interrupted him coldly.
Seeing Pei Yaochi’s cold and disdainful expression, Xia Yao gritted her teeth and sneered.
“Pei Yaochi, what’s with your attitude?”
What’s there to be proud of being signed by Stars International? What are you trying to do by looking down on others with that cold expression of yours? Hate Zeyan for dumping you? He gave you a chance, but you didn’t have the ability to become famous. You were useless and couldn’t give him any help. Do you still want him to treat you like his ancestor?
Why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror? What right do you have to maintain your inexplicable sense of superiority in front of us? Oh, do you think you’re so great just because you’ve changed your appearance and become presentable? In reality, you’re still a useless piece of trash!”
The more Xia Yao spoke, the more she couldn’t control herself. The resentment that had accumulated since the Xia family’s bankruptcy had turned into anger and she vented it all on Pei Yaochi.
Pei Yaochi glared coldly at Xia Yao, who had suddenly blocked her way. She gritted her teeth.
She had never been thick-skinned. Even when someone criticized her in private, she could not help but blush.
Not to mention, she had shouted at him in public.
Everyone’s gaze swept over. After all, Gu Zeyan was a man. His face was more important than his chest. Seeing this, he tugged at Xia Yao’s arm and said, “What nonsense are you spouting!”
“Why? Am I wrong to say that she’s useless?”
Gu Zeyan didn’t reply, clearly agreeing.
After two seconds of silence, Xia Yao sneered and said,
“See, you think so too.”
“Alright, stop fooling around. There are so many people watching!”
“So be it! Didn’t you invite me here today to give me a blow? Didn’t you announce that Pei Yaochi is going to be popular today? You can let everyone know and see when she will be popular!”
Pei Yaochi pursed her lips and looked at the crazy woman in front of her. Her cold face suddenly sneered.
“I’m useless? Miss Xia, how capable are you to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry?”
