“You’re talking nonsense! This is impossible!” Wei Xi’er’s expression changed. She clenched her hands tightly and said, “Zhuang Li said that you…” She instantly stopped when she met Shen Hanxing’s clear eyes. Shen Hanxing looked beautiful, powerful, elegant, and calm. Wei Xi’er found it difficult to finish her sentence. She also felt that it was somewhat absurd. Did Zhuang Li tell her the truth?
Zhuang Li said that Shen Hanxing had admired him for a long time and wanted to be his lover. He also said that Shen Sisi was Shen Hanxing’s sister. Out of jealousy, Shen Hanxing had been framing and ostracizing Shen Sisi since she was young. However, were all these true? Wei Xi’er’s heart was in a mess.
“Zhuang Li said… Zhuang Li said… Miss Wei, let me ask you.” Shen Hanxing’s smile was cold. She stared at Wei Xi’er’s face and said, “It’s all from Zhuang Li. What about you? Did you investigate? Did you only find out that I was targeting Wu Yu’s crew?”
Wei Xi’er lowered her eyes and did not speak. Shen Hanxing was right. She only found out that Shen Hanxing was targeting Wu Yu’s crew. As for why… She did not check further.
“Actually, I know what kind of dirty words Zhuang Li said behind me.” Shen Hanxing sneered. “Miss Wei, you are a smart person. Are you going to turn blind and deaf just because of what a man said?”
“What do you mean?” Wei Xi’er’s expression darkened. There was a hint of anger in her voice. “Mrs. Ji, I am here to discuss with you. I am not here to listen to you criticize my boyfriend.”
“I’m just reminding you.” Shen Hanxing shook her head. “Perhaps you can investigate the relationship between the female lead of Wu Yu’s crew and your boyfriend.” She stopped here. To her, Wei Xi’er was a stranger whom she had met a few times. Meanwhile, Zhuang Li was Wei Xi’er’s fiancé. If Wei Xi’er insisted on being blinded by love and believed in Zhuang Li’s lies, it was useless to convince her.
“Mrs. Ji, don’t you think you are being too despicable?” As expected, Wei Xi’er did not suspect Zhuang Li. Instead, she was furious. She slammed the table and said angrily, “Correct me if I’m wrong, Shen Sisi is your sister, right? It’s fine that you framed Zhuang Li. As an elder sister, how could you ruin your sister’s reputation in front of outsiders? I feel sorry for Shen Sisi!”
“My mother has only one daughter. I don’t have a younger sister.” Shen Hanxing’s expression instantly turned cold. She slammed the glass of juice on the table. She shouted, “Miss Wei, I’m kind enough to remind you. If you don’t believe me, then forget it. Are you saying that I framed Zhuang Li?” She sneered while her eyes were filled with pride. “Is Zhuang Li worthy?” No matter how good Zhuang Li appeared in front of others, Shen Hanxing had only one word to say about Zhuang Li, “villain”! A villain who was unscrupulous yet arrogant. He wanted to rely on Wei Xi’er to get to the top. Yet, he acted as if he was better than her!
“My brothers have always admired you. I didn’t expect you to be this way.” Wei Xi’er was furious. She stood up abruptly and said, “Since you don’t agree to a settlement, then I’ll play along. If you insist to go against Wu Yu’s production team, don’t blame me!”
After saying those harsh words, Wei Xi’er turned around and was about to leave. When she raised her eyes, she froze on the spot. Ji Yan stood at the entrance. His handsome face was ice-cold. He raised his eyes and looked over. With just a glance, he froze her on the spot.
Wei Xi’er’s anger was suddenly extinguished. “Ji… President Ji…”
“Miss Wei.” Ji Yan’s voice was ice-cold. He approached her slowly and said in a deep voice, “Guests have to be guests. To speak so insolently in the master’s house, you really have guts.”
Wei Xi’er’s face was pale and she could not say a word. She stammered and replied in a low voice, “I… I’m sorry…”
Ji Yan didn’t reply and brushed past Wei Xi’er. He sat beside Shen Hanxing and said, “You’re bullying my wife in my house with my presence. I wonder if this is your intention alone or the Wei Corporation’s?” He sounded way too serious by raising it to a conflict between the two corporations.
